What Jesus taught us is sufficient for salvation. If it were not, He would have warned us about the sending of men after Him to teach us what was missing. But the truth is that Jesus never prophesied the sending of any man after Him, whether inside or outside the Bible. The teachings of most churches did not come from Jesus, but from men who arose years after His return to the Father, and, therefore, are false. Jesus taught us to believe and to obey: to believe that He was sent by the Father and to obey all the commandments that the Father gave us in the Old Testament, just as He and His apostles obeyed. | “You have commanded your precepts, that we should keep them diligently.” (Psalm 119:4)
You do not have to be a theologian to conclude, without any doubt, that the most popular doctrine in most churches is false. Its catastrophic results speak for themselves. The doctrine of “unmerited favor” has led millions of souls to the fatal error of believing that they can, indeed, ignore the holy laws that God, our Creator, gave us through the prophets and through Jesus, and still inherit eternal life. The sad reality is that this will not happen. Salvation is individual. 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. The end has already come! Obey while you are alive. | “You have commanded your precepts, that we should keep them diligently.” (Psalm 119:4)
The idea that the cross of the Son exempts gentiles from the holy Law of the Father has no support whatsoever in the words of Jesus. No prophet, not even the Messiah Himself, ever taught such a thing. This lie was planted by the devil right after the ascension of Christ and, since then, has taken root in the minds of millions of gentiles. People like this deception because it creates a comfortable feeling: that they can ignore the commandments that God gave to the prophets of the Old Testament and still be washed by the blood of the Lamb. But the reality is that this will never happen. The Father does not send the disobedient to the Son. Do not follow the majority, 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 him to My holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
The only route that leads gentiles to Jesus is through the nation that the Lord set apart for Himself with a perpetual covenant, sealed by the sign of circumcision: Israel. The Lord is an organized God, who faithfully fulfills everything He declares. He is the God of Israel and of no other nation, past or present. In none of the gospels did Jesus imply that He would be creating a new religion for the gentiles, nor did He appoint any man, whether inside or outside the Bible, for this mission. Any gentile can join Israel and be blessed by God, as long as he follows the same laws that the Lord gave to Israel. The Father sees the faith and courage of this gentile, despite the difficulties. He pours out His love upon him, unites him to Israel, and leads him to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. | 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)
When the Christian gets involved with lies, deception, fraud, illusion, fiction, and fantasy, he commits two very serious errors: he chooses the path of darkness and rejects the God of light and truth. And that is exactly what happens with the plan of salvation being taught in many churches, a plan that did not come from the lips of Jesus and, therefore, is false from beginning to end. The serpent coated the lie with a veneer of “faith” and ”love,” but the purpose remains the same as in Eden: to lead man away from obedience to the commandments that God revealed through the prophets before the Messiah and by the Messiah Himself. Whoever follows this false gospel moves away from God. Salvation is individual. Obey while you are still alive. | “Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.” (2 John 9).
The Scriptures report several cases of people who were especially blessed by God. Human beings like us, who were healed of serious illnesses, delivered from powerful enemies, and greatly prospered. They all had something in common: they were faithful to God’s laws and pleased the Lord with their lives. Many in churches also seek God’s blessings, but do not receive them because they listened to false teachings. They learned that God blesses those who do not obey His laws revealed to the prophets of the Old Testament and to Jesus. Do not accept this lie just because the majority accepted it. Seek to be faithful to God’s laws and He will change your life and send you to the Son. | “We receive from Him whatever we ask because we obey His commandments and do what pleases Him.” (1 John 3:22)
Believe it! The only truly happy gentile is the one who has decided, with reverence and courage, to follow all the commandments revealed by the prophets who came before the Messiah and by the Messiah Himself, facing each challenge as proof of faithfulness to the living God; this servant understands that there is no greater joy than walking in the ways that the Lord Himself established, for in this obedience his life finally gains meaning, God’s blessings flow continuously, the heart is filled with peace, he experiences a deep intimacy with the Father and with Jesus that the world can never imitate, and his salvation is certain. Do not follow the majority, 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 him to My holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
There are leaders who try to justify disobedience by saying that, after the ascension of Jesus, Christians began to ignore some commandments given to the prophets of the Old Testament, such as the beard, the Sabbath, circumcision, and others. So what? The error of flawed men has now become a divine rule? The Lord never called us to imitate deviations, but to imitate His Son. The apostles and disciples, who lived with Jesus daily, lived in total faithfulness to the laws revealed before the Messiah and by the Messiah Himself. If others abandoned the Law later, that only proves the danger of the serpent, not a new path. Salvation is individual. Obey while you are still alive. | “He who says: I know Him, and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” (1 John 2:2-6)
In the four gospels, Jesus never taught that gentiles would be free from the powerful and eternal Law of the Father; this strange doctrine only appeared years after His return to the Father, without any basis in His words or in biblical prophecies. What Christ did was to train apostles who would live as models for all, Jews and gentiles. Every commandment was obeyed diligently: the Sabbath, circumcision, forbidden meats, the use of tzitzits, the beard, and all the other statutes of the Lord. Salvation is individual; do not follow the majority; obey while you are alive. | “The assembly must have the same laws, which will apply both to you and to the gentile who lives among you; this is a perpetual decree.” (Numbers 15:15)
While Moses went up the mountain to receive God’s commandments, the people built a golden calf. They wanted to worship the same God, but in their own way. This is the same attitude seen in churches: they claim to worship the true God, but reject His instructions. They accepted doctrines invented by men that arose years after Jesus returned to the Father. In the desert, God called that act rebellion and destroyed the disobedient. The same fate awaits those who insist on following a faith shaped by men and not by the words of the Father and the Son. Do not follow the majority, obey while you are alive. | “You have commanded your precepts, that we should keep them diligently.” (Psalm 119:4)
