Reminder to all who like to say: You can’t interpret words in the Bible at its face value!
1. I ask you: How much money do you have in your pocket!
Let him search and clear his pocket, then count the money! Let say, he said: I have 101 dollar!
2. You got it all wrong! Why do you search your pocket and count the money?
You just took words I said at its face value!
3. When your wife said: Honey, please go buy a gallon of milk for the children!
4. What did you do? You go but a gallon of milk.... Again you took your wife words at its value!
5. In reality! We take words at its face value!
6. Here is Bible words. Romans 10:13 Everyone calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Many preach this verse and say whoever calls on the name of the Lord is saved!
7. I think you may be a little confused already!
This is exactly why people say you can’t take Bible words at its face value!
They try to confuse you! Do you know who like to confuse people?
Today I will give you some reasons on why I said Christianity people do not believe Jesus!
And I said, it is out of my love and kindness that I said such!
A. John 8:31-44 1.To the Jews who having believed him, Jesus said:
If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. John 8:31
2. These having believed Jesus were ready to kill him! John 8:37
3. The NIV says: These having believed Jews were determined to kill Jesus! John 8:40
4. Jesus said these having believed Jews were children of the devil! John 8:44
5. Therefore, I can say, they were children of the devil! Which sounds better?
Christianity people do not believe Jesus or Christianity people are children of the devil!
B. Matthew 7:22-23
1. Jesus said: Many will say to me on that day, `Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name,
and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles? Matt.7:22
2. Then I will tell them plainly: I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers! Matt.7”23
3. In reality, Christianity has a lot more success on earth than the churches of Christ!
They have man, we have a few!
4. But Jesus said: They were evil doers!
5. So which is better, to say they do not believe Jesus or evil doers!
C. People say there are many Christianity nations!
1. You and they both say, Italy, France, Great Britain, U.S.A…. are Christianity nations!
2. These nations head of state and high officials support and enforce this-->
People in these nations are free to worship any gods they like!
D. Now see what says in the Bible! 1. Deu.6:14-15
Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you.
For the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you,
and he will destroy you from the face of the land.
2. Now you see, I say, these people do not believe Jesus is out of my love and kindness!
3. In reality and Bible words, if I say, these people believe Jesus!
I am implying that these people challenge God to his face! They ridicule God!
Or you want me to say, these people stand up against God the Almighty!
4. Jesus said: God is one. Besides this God there is no other! Mark 12:28-32
E. Jesus prayed: All his believers be united into one church of Christ. John 17:20-23
1. Apostle Paul put it this way! 1 Cor.1:10
I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one
another so that there may be no denominations among you and that you may be perfectly united
in mind and thought.
2. Put on a new man, holy and righteous created by the gospel and live as a child of God. 1 Jn.3:10
3. No fornication, no adultery among you! Heb.13:4 4. Do not love money! Heb.13:5
5. Do not stop to worship God on Sunday in a church of Christ. Heb.10:25
Conclusion: This is a Jesus believing nation!
a. All citizen do righteousness.
b. There is no fornication in the nation.
c. There is no adultery in the nation.
d. All citizens worship God in the churches of Christ every Sunday.
