THE
GOSPEL
GOD & MAN
THE
MESSAGE OF GOD FOR HUMANITY, THE GOOD NEWS FOR EVERY MAN OF EVERY NATION
MAN WITHOUT GOD
This is the universal message for every
man of every nation and religion, which he will have to come out of if he
seeks God truly. The God of the Bible, Yahweh, Jehovah, his Son Yahshua
or Jesus Christ and the Bible itself, do not belong to the churches, nor
to the western world, not even to the people of Israel, but to humanity
as a whole; any
other explanation is sectarian and therefore it has no place in the mind
of the man of good will. We should say that Jesus Christ is not
Christian
if we base ourselves on the kind of Christianity which the western world has exported.
Jesus Christ is the universal savior.
Man lives without knowing
God. Usually, he realizes that He exists and tries to justify himself before Him,
through religion or by good works of mercy for others, and then
considers himself a good person. Sin is to live without God. Man
does not
know God. God manifests Himself to us by the preaching of His Living Word in
Spirit, which says that He,
through Jesus Christ, gave His life for us, His
physical blood which represents His Spirit; first by paying for us,
cleaning our conscience and beating our enemy, the devil, and
rescuing us from our spiritual death which is
not having a relation of love with Him. This way our beloved God opens
the door for us to begin a new life walking by His side, and in
resurrection eternal life also by His side.
And the LORD God said, Behold, the
man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put
forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for
ever: 23Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden,
to till the ground from whence he was taken. 24So he drove out the man;
and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming
sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Genesis 3:22.
Allegorically, Eden
means to be with God and to feel His presence. To
live in paradise. But man in his foolishness, misled by the devil, and
coveting knowledge, insisted in wanting to live without God, and left
Him; even today mankind leaves God. The flaming sword that turns every way is the Word
of God: The Bible. No one will understand it by religions, nor by the
rational intent of understanding to then judge it. Only those who
believe in God and are humble will understand it, because His Spirit
provides the
spiritual interpretation. The tree of life is Christ. Man cannot eat from
it, unless admitting to being a sinner, and receiving Christ by faith.
This is why God gave us His
Law, so that mankind can come to know that it is under sin and unable to
fulfill
the best moral possible. ...Therefore by the deeds
of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the
law is the knowledge of sin. ...23For all have sinned, and come short of
the glory of God; 24Being justified freely by his grace
through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25Whom God hath set
forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood...
Romans 3:20.
...Therefore being justified by faith,
we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ... Romans 5:1.
WHO IS
YAHSHUA, JESUS CHRIST?
For unto us a child is born, unto us
a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his
name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God,
The everlasting Father, The Prince of
Peace. Isaiah 9:6.
1In the beginning was the Word, and the
Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with
God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made
that was made. 4In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5And the
light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not... ...9That
was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him
not. 11He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12But as many as
received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them
that believe on his name... John 1:1.
This is the Lord and God
of every human being. The savior of the souls and who sets them free, the
Eternal God. Your friend.
GOD LOVES MAN EVEN THOUGH MAN IS A SINNER.
For God so loved the world, that he
gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not
perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.
We have now seen that Jesus
Christ is God himself. How come then He says that it is His Son who is given for
our sins? We must understand that God is the only one that can set us free
from death, the only one who has the power to resurrect the dead and give
them eternal life. God loves us so much that He comes in flesh and comes to
the kingdom of death, wins the battle on the cross, and saves man by resurrecting to
give us victory by faith, which is a gift of His. Thought to meditate: We
would have no salvation if Jesus Christ would have been only a man and not
God. May we all glorify Him.
TO BE BORN AGAIN OF THE SPIRIT
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom
of God. 4Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he
enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? 5Jesus answered,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the
Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6That which is born of the
flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7Marvel not that
I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8The wind bloweth where it listeth, and
thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and
whither
it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. John 3:3
al 8.
Man is dead to the Spirit of
God, because he prefers to live without Him, but when he becomes aware of his
loneliness and opens his heart to Him, he falls in love with God in Christ, then
he receives the Holy Spirit, because man needs to be born again from above.
When a person has been born again
from the Spirit of God, he enters in a dimension which he could not see before. It
is
like a person who was born blind and he is now given eyesight. We are born spiritually blind. When God
opens our eyes, when Jesus Christ heals the born blind, He is really teaching us
-
apart from the miracle - that we need to see eternal life, which is the
spiritual one. He shows us His mind so we can receive it, if we feel that we
love Him and we miss Him because of the existential emptiness that we bring in
our souls before the foundation of the world, even before we are capable of
acting with the use of reasoning, God has provided that we should come to know Him.
May no one
be left in the dimension of darkness; come to Him and He will give you
Light so you become light.
Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that
sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. Ephesians
5:14.
What a privilege to be
able to live with God from today, by this new birth, by spiritual knowledge.
Share your life with Him. He is your best friend.
THE
NEW LIFE WITH YAHSHUA, JESUS CHRIST
I indeed baptize you with water unto
repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am
not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
12Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and
gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with
unquenchable fire.
Mattew
3:11.
This was said to us by John the Baptist. Announce onto others the
gospel or good news of the work of God for mankind.
4To
whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men,
but
chosen of God, and precious, 5Ye also,
as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy
priesthood... ... 9But ye are a chosen
generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people;
that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out
of darkness into his marvelous light; 10Which
in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which
had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. 1 Peter 2:4 to
10.
This baptism of the Spirit is
like an anointment that covers you from head to toe and changes your mind, so
you may believe in the truth, which is the Gospel's message of God to man, and not the
message of society throughout the different ages.
...7Nevertheless I tell you the truth;
It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter
will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. 8And when
he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of
judgment: 9Of sin, because they believe not on me; 10Of
righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; 11Of
judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. 12I have yet many
things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13Howbeit when he, the
Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not
speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he
will shew you things to come. John 16:7
to 13.
GOD'S BRIDE
God wants to share and
love, He wants to share His godliness in eternity. He wants to have a
spiritual bride to marry in His essence to share eternity.
God has created man, man's soul, which is His bride and wife, if the soul of man falls in
love with Him and he gives himself to him and he to her - I mean our soul,
the soul of each and every one of us, man or woman. The soul is where our
unique being is, each of us, our feelings and our essence, our personality.
But of course God does not
want to create a person-wife who loves Him, without giving her the opportunity
of falling in love with Him, otherwise it would not be true love. This is why
God creates man to His image and likeness, with a soul able to contain the Holy
Spirit, as a temple, this is according to the Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 6:1;
because it must become of the same spiritual essence as God, as it
will be His wife. From this point onwards, man finds himself under freedom of
choice, facing his own
existence.
Now, man asks himself:
what am I doing here, what is the purpose of my life, where do I come
from and were am I going? Of course God does not abandon us during our
lives, neither does He leave us ignorant about the guide to follow or about what He
approves or disapproves, so that we may value whether we fall in love with Him or not. Man or
woman, from the moment we are conscious of our existence, our soul (mind, psyche) needs
to seek its origin, which is our target, and this
origin is God.
God gives us
evidences of His
existence during our lives through the existence of material things: creation. He gives us faith,
shows us that He loves us, but we often doubt and it becomes very difficult.
The world can be beautiful, nature is, and there are so many emotions, and so
many love-filled experiences amongst mankind and amongst animals, but also, on the
other side we find a dominant system full of violence and selfishness, and it makes
us live in a changing situation, depending on the age we live on earth.
Since the origins of mankind, and taking the
Bible as the Word of God, in the beginning, man is given the opportunity to
live in the presence of God, book of Genesis; Adam and Eve, his wife, whom I
will call the soul of man, to teach the situation in which we are on Earth and how
we are totally free. ... But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt
surely die... Genesis 2:17.
This is what we find in the first book of the Bible, which may sound as a
threat or a prohibition for man, as religions have shown us until now. But let
us
see how this is far from reality, because God loves us. Now we will learn how to
become friends of the Bible, and in an easy way see how it is a universal and
truly word for every era.
Let us see it from God's point of view ...It
is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him..., He continues saying. When the woman is created,
symbolically man receives his mind-soul, so he receives the capacity of being
like God, not only body with breath of life of the spirit, but also soul, that
new mind-soul to the likeness of God's own, different to the one of animals,
with which man will receive the capacity to feel God and her His voice in all
issues. But God
warns him that if he eats from the tree of the science of good and evil, he will
die; this is the point that I want to make clear so that it is not
misinterpreted. If we are able to have a relationship with Him,
and He gives us the capacity to ask Him and share our life with Him, in a
perfect spiritual relation, without mediators, or religions, like He gave Adam,
then why is it that He tells us that if we obtain the knowledge of good and
evil, we shall die? Let's not forget the first thing that Eve does, and
therefore Adam. Adam is the name of humanity and therefore yours and mine
(Genesis 5:2). Good and evil is a code, and if we know it we will accept
it as the guide for our life, in such a way that we can judge whether an act is good or
evil, and therefore guide ourselves: that is moral. But God warns us not to use it to
judge situations, not to eat from that "forbidden" fruit. Up to here this does not
seem to make any sense, but let us see why God wants us apart from this code. Quickly
the serpent, representing the devil, that spiritual being that does not love
God, nor man, takes advantage the same moment that we receive our soul, to tempt
us offering us precisely to disobey God and to covet knowledge of the science of
good and evil, which at first sight also seems more logical.
The very same moment that man decides to eat from
what he covets, from that code of moral of good and evil, he loses his direct
relationship with God, and does not live with Him any longer, does not ask Him
first, man then does not share every moment with Him, but bases his life on the
knowledge of the science of good and evil, on his own law of his mind. However,
man will never be able to fulfill this code to be in peace with himself, because
he will modify it and adapt it to the age he lives in and the society where he is
born. As he realizes that he cannot fulfill it, the call of the flesh,
(obviously tempted by the devil, he who rebelled to God since he was created),
will make every man and woman unable to fulfill that personal code, that moral that
in principle seems the correct one but life shows us that our code is not
perfect and man feels beaten inside him and also begins to feel dead to
spiritual life. Man experiences along his life the spiritual emptiness, and
begins the search.
Still, man believes that with the reasoning
that he has just obtained by eating from this system of judgment he will find
all the answers to all the questions of his existence: knowledge, investigation,
science, etc., this is why it is called the science of good and evil. He no
longer asks God how He created, how He did, where He gave us life from,
etc.
But the most important thing that we need,
even more than answers, is true love that only God can give us, which man
thinks he doesn't need when he separates from Him, but later, as life goes by,
he misses.
The above is the description of man's sin.
The word sin means error: to focus on a life without God, to focus on a
lower level of existence, in which we let ourselves be influenced by many
different codes of good and evil, according to the age, according to people.
Faced with this situation, man adopts a code in an assembly and organizes
a religion, any of them, or the ethical and moral codes. Soon, man finds out
that this was another road leading to a dead-end, because everyone seems just and fair
in front of the rest, but deep inside there is a different person or reality.
To avoid this confusion God proposes man
- better still: He teaches man which one is the moral or code of good and
evil according to God Himself: The Law of God. All these codes are to
condemn, and they all impose death to man when not fulfilled. However, we - every
man - has a limited life and we are all going to die, although afterwards we will all
resurrect for judgment, Revelation 20. Today the society of tolerance
and human rights, which are used to justify the use of obsolete weapons in
order to re-build countries later on to dominate them imposing a consumers'
society to the ethnic group which ruled before, they forget the law of God,
and everything is allowed. It's the creation of an all-valid system in
exchange for profits, and this is what even law professionals dedicate to, defending their
guilty clients as long as they pay well, looking for the necessary arguments.
Society is heading to a situation of personal and total deterioration. As long as
our neighbor allows us to do whatever we want, we are all
happy! The problem comes when some want to kill, others rape, others make war,
etc. We are reaching a society which tolerates some things and hides others.
Our poor kids...if we the parents don't give them the reference of God,
their future looks dark.
Man, again, soon realizes that he cannot
fulfill, nor the Law of God, nor any of the codes found in history. Finally he
resigns and clings onto an inner emptiness while on the outside he acts in
front of society, in front of his colleagues at work, or religion, association, sect,
practicing the rituals or in front of a group where a particular
ethical code is proclaimed and tries to get on well with others as to not be seen
naked in front of his neighbor, a neighbor who is not trustworthy. This is the
attitude we find in a
person with good will, but what about those who don't care about moral nor fear
God or seek Him and the Truth, or do not even try to become better persons?
After this study of the situation in which we
find mankind, let us see what God does so that we can come back to Him, and
begin to learn how is He, so that we fall in love with His soul and His Spirit -
or not - and become His bride to share eternity with Him.
The biggest proof of love someone can offer
is to give his life for the other. At this point, a reminder, in case it
has not been interpreted well, or in case it has been forgotten: Jesus
Christ, the son of God, came to this world to give His life instead of ours,
to pay for us the price that we would have deserved to pay, and by doing so He proved to us that He opens
the door and Is the door to God, which had been closed so far. He himself is
God made man, that is why His life beats death, which we had on us, and
knows our weaknesses and our suffering. He proposes that we must not stick to any
code, but receive Him as our only and sufficient savior for having shed His
blood to pay for our sin. The only code that works is the love of God from
Him to us and from us to our neighbor. Those who have seen the immensity of His love and
have cried because He has paid in our place, when we didn't love Him, have
then fallen in love with a God, who hears us in our prayer, the only God
that exists, and has proved it by coming and delivering us from
death by faith in His redemption, and having resurrected so that we believe
that we will also resurrect, and that this life is a test for us to know
whether while we live in a system that is opposed to Him, we prefer it or we don't accept it and
look for Him so that He takes us out of it.
I have fallen in love with Him because I know
Him by seeing His love, because I have repented of my own ways, which means that I
have changed my mind and my way of thinking, that now I share my life with Him.
From now on, I may begin to have a relationship with He whom I want to marry spiritually
for eternity, because He has asked me to, and He did not lie to me, and because
even if I went the wrong way and tried to live on my own according to my will,
now I can see that I would not be able to achieve happiness, that I could not love others as
they deserved, and even less my enemies, and now with the power that God gives me
and with His Holy Spirit, I can. Now I don't feel empty, now I know were I come
from and were I'm going.
I would like that you, my dear friend and
reader would also experience this. You only have to talk to Him and tell
Him. If you want you could pray like this: My God I don't know you, but I
have understood that you love me although I did not love You, that you have
offered even your own Son for me, coming to this world and I want to accept
the Blood of Christ as the payment for all my sins, and begin a new life,
knowing that I will be with you for eternity; give me faith to believe this
and preach it. That I believe that the Bible is your Word, which you gave to
holy men and prophets, inspiring them through your Holy Spirit. Fill me with
your Holy Spirit so You may do in me your work of converting me in your
promised land were You reign for ever and ever. Amen.

At this point is when life starts to make
sense, and you will be flooded with questions; but as you have your Lord,
you can talk to Him, you can also talk to other brethren who have received
Christ, who have been in the Way of God for years, and you will see how
they enjoy their lives. Shortly you will help them to do so as well.
Now you must understand that you must have
the Holy Spirit of God in you; pray for this, He will give Him to you if you
have truly decided to love God. I would like to remind you that Jesus taught us
by his own experience, that we must be baptized, in an act where one
announces to the heavens (and I tell you there is celebration for you up
there) that you have understood that you needed to repent (change your mind) and that you will
begin a new life, it's like signing a contract. Even if they baptized you as
a baby, in a religion, the correct thing is to do it with your approval,
because
when we are babies we know nothing. Go ahead and do it, go to a beach, a river
or wherever there is water, and go with a brother in the Faith to be baptized
by him. Yes, there is no need of a special minister nor any organization.
All of us who have received Christ must preach and talk about Him, or
baptize or teach and help those who seek Him and remember the physical
and spiritual poor, the prisoners as if we were in prison with them, the ill
to pray for healing, visit them, because if we do this, we do it to Jesus Christ,
Matthew 2:36. The only spiritual head is Jesus Christ, He is the one
that baptizes in Holy Spirit, we only do it in water in an act that means the
same as if we were signing the contract with God on the dotted line, where it
says our name. May God bless you and your family in
your new life in the Spirit. Hallelu-Yah.
