None of the sermons that dominate churches today align with what God instructed us through the prophets and the Messiah. The Lord never changed His requirements nor simplified His laws to please men. The orders are clear: we must fulfill each commandment exactly as it was given, without reservations or exceptions. Partial obedience is disguised disobedience, and whoever lives this way will never please the Father. Jesus was faithful to all the Father’s laws and taught His disciples to do the same. The Father only sends to the Son those who please Him through total obedience. Salvation is individual. Do not follow the majority , obey while you are alive. | “Do not add to or take away anything from the commandments I give you. Simply obey the commandments of the Lord your God.” (Deuteronomy 4:2)
Any effort to approach Jesus without going through the Father will be in vain. Someone may exalt Jesus all their life, but if the Father does not bring him to the Son, it will all be in vain. Jesus said clearly that no one comes to Him unless the Father brings him. For us to be brought to the Son and receive forgiveness and salvation, we must please the Father, and this is done through obedience to the same laws that were given to Israel, the nation chosen by God Himself. The Father sees the faith and courage of this gentile, despite the challenges. He pours out His love upon him, unites him to Israel, and leads him to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. This is the plan of salvation that makes sense because it is true. | “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted by the Father.” (John 6:65)
God hears the prayers of those who obey Him. Raised hands, altered voice, or background music do not convince the Most High. He is not impressed by appearances, but by faithfulness. The Lord inclines His ears only to those who love Him by striving to fulfill all the commandments He revealed to the prophets in the Old Testament and to the Messiah in the four Gospels. The disobedient speak much, but their words do not rise. The obedient speak little, but are heard. Salvation is individual. Do not follow the majority , obey while you are alive. | “We receive from Him whatever we ask because we obey His commandments and do what pleases Him.” (1 John 3:22)
When we die, each soul goes to the final destination it chose. The prophets and Jesus taught that we must obey the Father to inherit eternal life. Many claim, however, that disobeying God’s laws does not affect salvation. Do not accept this, for there will be no other chance after death. What needs to be done to ascend with Christ must be done now, while we are alive. The gentile who seeks salvation in Jesus must follow the same laws that the Lord gave to the nation He set apart for Himself with an eternal covenant. The Father sees the faith and courage of this gentile, despite the challenges. He pours out His love upon him, unites him to Israel, and leads him to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. This is the plan of salvation that makes sense because it is true. | The gentile who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, thus becoming His servant… and who remains firm in My covenant, I will also bring them to My holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
In the lake of fire, many Christians will remember how many times they heard “this is no longer necessary” from their leaders and how many times they accepted this without checking if Jesus taught such a thing in the four gospels. Their hatred will be great, because they were led by men who despised the powerful and eternal Law of God. But there will be no return, because the truth was available the whole time. Jesus never stated that gentiles would be saved without obeying the Father. There is only one plan of salvation, and Christ confirmed it by training apostles and disciples in total obedience. Jews or gentiles, we must live as they did, keeping the Sabbath, circumcision, forbidden meats, tzitzits, the beard, and all the other statutes of the Lord. Salvation is individual: obey while you are alive. | “Here is the perseverance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith in Jesus.” (Revelation 14:12)
Nothing in the Scriptures is clearer than the laws of God. Everyone understands what it means not to steal, not to kill, not to commit adultery, to keep the Sabbath, to wear the tzitzit, to keep the beard, and to follow the other laws. The gentile who knows these laws but chooses not to obey has already lost any basis for defense at the final judgment due to his conscious disobedience. Claiming that he disobeyed because Jesus died on the cross will not be accepted, since Jesus never taught this. And saying that he learned it from someone else will not be accepted either, for there are no prophecies about anyone coming after Jesus with the mission to change God’s laws for the gentiles. No gentile will ascend without seeking to follow the same laws given to Israel. Laws that Jesus Himself and His apostles followed. Do not follow the majority because they are many. Obey while you are alive. | The gentile who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, thus becoming His servant… and who remains firm in My covenant, I will also bring them to My holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
If God determines that someone deserves salvation, who are we to question? At the final judgment, will we dare to say that He was mistaken? That no one there deserved it? God has already taken Enoch, Moses, and Elijah to heaven because He thought they deserved it, did He make a mistake? The doctrine of “unmerited favor” has no support in the Old Testament, and even less in the Gospels. Jesus never taught such a thing. What Jesus made clear is that the Father sends us to the Son, and the Father only sends those who follow the laws that He gave to the nation chosen with an everlasting covenant. God observes our obedience, and, seeing our faithfulness, He unites us to Israel and delivers us to the Son. | “You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently.” (Psalm 119:4)
The idea that Gentiles do not need to obey the laws that God transmitted through the prophets in the Old Testament does not come from the Lord, but from the serpent, whose goal since Eden has been to lead souls into disobedience to the Creator. God never taught two ways, nor two measures, nor one standard for Israel and another for Gentiles. The Father revealed His will clearly, and Jesus never contradicted what was given by the prophets. Whoever promotes disobedience is repeating the same old lie, even if using the name of Christ. The Father only sends to the Son those who honor Him through obedience. Salvation is individual. Obey while you are still alive. | The foreigner who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, being thus His servant… and who holds fast to my covenant, I will also bring to my holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
God made an eternal covenant with one man in the Bible and, from that man, created, protected, and set apart a nation for Himself, promising never to abandon it. It was from and for this nation that God sent His Son, as a sacrifice for their sins. It is important to make it clear: God did not set apart several nations, but only one, formed by the descendants of Isaac, son of Abraham, and by the Gentiles of his household. No Gentile will be saved outside of Israel, for only one nation was chosen by God. The Gentile who wishes to be saved by Jesus needs to follow the same laws that the Father gave to the nation of which Jesus was a part. The Father sees our faith and courage, unites us to Israel, and leads us to the Son. This plan of salvation makes sense because it is the true one. | The foreigner who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, being thus His servant… and who holds fast to my covenant, I will also bring to my holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
The angels of the Lord encamp around the faithful Gentile. When he chooses to follow the same laws that God gave to the nation set apart for His honor and glory, the Father recognizes him, unites him to Israel, and blesses all the works of his hands. Everything he does prospers because he lives in obedience to the will of the Creator. This is the Gentile whom the Father sends to Jesus, not the disobedient, but the obedient, the one who keeps the commandments revealed in the Old Testament and confirmed by the words of the Messiah. This is the true plan of salvation, the same since the beginning: obey the Father, be united to Israel, and be sent to the Son for forgiveness and eternal life. Salvation is individual. Do not follow the majority, obey while you are alive. | The foreigner who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, being thus His servant… and who holds fast to my covenant, I will also bring to my holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
