Title: Only Faith!
Contents
The beginning of God's Word is, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me."
For those who do not completely deny themselves think of their own salvation. The Bible clearly shows us through Christ that the true new and living way is the way that leads to death even one's own soul.
As it is written, "...for he gave up his soul to death, and was numbered among the transgressors...."
The burnt offering that leads to death by throwing away the soul is the “whole burnt offering.” Therefore, the burnt offering in the Bible is just a “burnt offering” and there is also a “whole burnt offering”.
All those of Christ Jesus who experience the Word of Righteousness are experiencing how painful it is to follow Christ without denying me completely. This is because, because he did not completely deny himself, he remains and cannot forsake the salvation of his soul, and in the end there is a resurrection of judgment.
God's eternal atonement is accomplished there, in which by faith he threw away his soul with Christ to the point of death. The sacrifices offered to God without his own whole burnt offering are not the order of Melchizedek, but the order of Aaron.
This is the order of Aaron, who has only the death of Christ (the Lamb) without his own death, so sin cannot be perpetuated. Therefore, the old man is revived.
To say that a person is dead means that even his soul is dead. Death that does not die even to the soul is not an actual death, but a virtual death. Therefore, imaginary death cannot be one with Christ.
The word of truth, "I want you to die with him," is fulfilled only through faith that leads to death by throwing away your soul with him. This faith is salvation.
I hope that all my brothers and sisters who are still suffering because I am still alive will be freed from suffering with me in faith in this word of truth.
The pain of not having a whole burnt offering because my soul still remains is a heartbreaking pain. Thank you for giving me this pain and for the guidance of the Holy Spirit who makes me know again what the "eternal gospel" is, the basics of God's Word. This is the discipline of love given to the children we love.
The path the Lord has taken is a path that I would not be able to take. Therefore, the way to "forsake one's soul to death" is the way of the true cross.
So, not only "denying yourself" but "taking up your cross daily" and following Him is the way to eternal life. This road cannot be taken without faith. All of these things are the grace of God that comes only through faith.
Therefore, the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth. We give thanks in front of the words, "Grace above grace, that we all receive from His fullness."
The whole world is the mainland, relatives, and father's house, but again, a stranger came to this place (USA), thank you again for showing us the brighter truth.
When I see myself who has not disappeared again, the kingdom, power, and glory are eternal and everlasting to the faithful Father of Christ Jesus, our God the Father, who, through the stinging chastisement, eventually produces the peaceful fruit of righteousness. Amen.
I wish you all true salvation....
