How To Be Saved

How To Be Saved Many people wonder how they can be saved from the consequences of their sins and have eternal life. The Bible teaches that salvation is a gift from God that cannot be earned by human efforts or merits. Salvation is based on God's grace and mercy, which He offers to anyone who believes in His Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of the world and rose again from the dead, proving His power over sin and death. Anyone who confesses their sins, repents of their wrongdoings, and trusts in Jesus Christ as their only way to God will be saved. Salvation is not a one-time event, but a lifelong relationship with God that involves obedience, growth, and service. To be saved, one must follow the steps below: 1. Recognize that you are a sinner and that you need God's forgiveness. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." 2. Acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died for your sins and rose again from the dead. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." 3. Repent of your sins and turn away from your old way of living. Acts 3:19 says, "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." 4. Receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior by faith. Romans 10:9 says, "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." 5. Confess your faith in Jesus Christ publicly and join a local church where you can grow in your knowledge and love of God. Matthew 10:32 says, "Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven."

The **red heifer**, also known as *Parah Adumah*, is a fascinating and mysterious element in Jewish tradition. It is first mentioned in the **Book of Numbers**, where God instructs Moses and Aaron to take "a perfectly red unblemished cow, upon which no yoke was laid." The ashes of a red heifer are necessary for purification prior to conducting biblical sacrificial ceremonies. However, finding such a cow—one that is perfect in color and without blemish—is extremely difficult. According to Jewish sources, only **nine** red heifers were slaughtered from the time of Moses until the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 C.E. Interestingly, the 12th-century sage **Maimonides** believed that the **Messiah** would offer the **10th red heifer**.

Recently, there has been renewed discussion about a future **Third Temple** in Jerusalem due to the arrival of three pure red heifers in Israel. Hundreds of Israelis visited the Jewish settlement of Shiloh in central Samaria to welcome these heifers, which have been inspected by rabbis and found to be red and unblemished—ritually pure for sacrifice according to the law of Moses . The Ancient Shiloh heritage site now houses these heifers, and a center dedicated to researching this phenomenon has been established there.

For Christians who hold a premillennial view of eschatology, even just one rabbi-approved red heifer arriving in Jerusalem signifies that the rapture is imminent. They believe that a third temple will be built during the End Times, after which other prophesied events will follow. Similarly, orthodox Jews who long to rebuild the third temple and reinstitute Old Testament sacrificial rituals require red heifers for this purpose. The presence of these heifers in Israel signifies to many Jews that redemption is now possible if the temple were to be rebuilt or restored.

In summary, while the arrival of these red heifers sparks excitement and discussion about prophecy and future temples, it remains a complex and intriguing aspect of Jewish tradition that I do not concur with.

The concept of the **Messiah** plays a role in Judaism: not as a future divine being but as a powerful human influence during an age of universal peace—a biblical Antichrist, so to speak. In Judaism, salvation is open to all people—not limited to those of the Jewish faith—provided they observe ethical patterns of behaviour summarised in the Ten Commandments.

Remember that mitzvahs (commandments) are central to Jewish life; these are not mere suggestions but instructions given by G‑d for Jews to follow.

The belief that Jesus is God, the Son of God, or a person of the Trinity is incompatible with Jewish theology. Jews believe that Jesus did not fulfil messianic prophecies that establish the criteria for the coming of the Messiah. Judaism does not accept Jesus as a divine being, an intermediary between humans and God, a messiah, or holy.

While it is true that some Jewish people rejected Jesus during his time, it's essential to recognize that not all Jews held this view. The entire New Testament story took place in the Land of Israel—the Land of the Jews. Some allege Jesus himself was Jewish and declared himself the Messiah of Israel. His followers were also Jews according to some, including the disciples and those who came to faith on the Jewish holiday of Shavuot (Pentecost). There is evidence of thousands of Jewish believers in the promised Messiah of Israel who took the Gospel around the world.

It's important to approach historical events with nuance and recognise that views among individuals can vary significantly. While some Jews rejected Jesus, others embraced him as their promised Messiah. The diversity of perspectives within Judaism highlights the complexity of this historical context.

The concept of the Third Temple holds significant religious and historical importance for many people. In Jewish tradition, the First Temple was built by King Solomon in Jerusalem around 957 BCE, but it was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. The Second Temple was later constructed after the Babylonian exile, but it too met its demise when the Romans destroyed it in 70 CE.

Fast forward to today, and there are discussions and debates about whether a Third Temple should be built. Some believe that constructing a new temple would fulfill biblical prophecies and restore a central place of worship for Jews. However, others argue that the concept of the Third Temple is symbolic and that the true "temple" is not a physical structure but rather a spiritual one.

The Apostle Paul, in his writings, emphasized that believers are now part of the "Body of Christ," which he referred to as the Church. He saw this spiritual community as the dwelling place of God, where His presence resides. In this view, the Church itself becomes the true temple—a living, breathing entity made up of individual believers.

So, while some may advocate for building a physical Third Temple, others maintain that Christ's work has already established something greater—the Church as God's dwelling place. Whether one supports or opposes constructing a new temple, it's essential to recognize that faith transcends mere bricks and mortar; it resides within hearts and lives.

No matter how many books you read on a particular subject, which are ultimately someone's opinion, or how many times you have visited a place like the Temple Mount, or even if you have spoken to rabbis and read archaeological books on the subject, what truly matters is the word of God and not your Jewish beliefs.

You can do all of the above but my Bible transcends all of it. What I believe is that there will never be a temple rebuilt in Jerusalem, and I refuse to believe the pro-Israeli, pro-Jewish propaganda machinations of this channel. The Bible does not mention a third temple ever being built in Jerusalem. A bricks and mortar building yes, but not a temple of God, never.

 The topic of a **Third Temple** in Jerusalem is indeed fascinating and has been the subject of much debate and speculation. Let's explore what the Bible says about this matter.

1. **Background**:

- The First Temple (built by King Solomon) and the Second Temple (rebuilt after the Babylonian exile) were significant structures in ancient Jerusalem.

- The Second Temple was destroyed by the Romans in AD 70, leaving no physical temple standing on the Temple Mount since then.

- The prospect of rebuilding a Third Temple is controversial due to the site's historical and religious significance.

2. **Biblical Prophecy**:

- Some believe that a Third Temple must be built for end-time prophecy to be fulfilled. However, there is no explicit prophecy in the Bible stating that a temple will be rebuilt after its destruction by the Romans.

- The Temple Institute in Jerusalem has been preparing materials needed for a Third Temple, including an altar for sacrifices. They even reenacted Passover sacrifices near the Temple Mount.

- The concept of a Third Temple is tied to various biblical passages, both in the Old and New Testaments.

3. **Biblical References**:

- **Daniel**: Describes an "abomination of desolation" (Daniel 11), which some interpret as an event related to a future temple.

- **Jesus**: Refers to the "abomination of desolation" standing in the "holy place" (Matthew 24).

- **Ezekiel**: Provides detailed building specifications for a future temple (Ezekiel 40).

- **Revelation**: Mentions a third, non-existent temple (Revelation 11).

4. **Different Interpretations**:

- Some believe that a literal Third Temple will be rebuilt when the Antichrist secures a treaty between Israel and its neighbours after a global war.

- Others interpret these prophecies symbolically or spiritually, suggesting that they refer to spiritual temples or events beyond physical structures.

5. **Red Heifers**:

- The requirement for resuming temple sacrifices includes using ashes from an unblemished red heifer (Numbers 19:2-10).

- Recently, five red heifers were flown to Israel from Texas to meet this requirement.

- Interestingly, while Jews view red heifers as purification for temple service, some Christian groups believe that building a Third Temple will hasten end-time events.

In summary, while there is no definitive answer regarding the construction of a Third Temple, biblical prophecy remains open to interpretation. Whether literal or symbolic, these prophecies remind us to be ready for significant events in God's plan.

The concept of a **Third Temple** and the role of a **red heifer** are fascinating topics. Let's delve into it.

In the Bible, red heifers play a significant role in **Temple law**. According to these laws, red heifers must meet specific criteria: they must be **pure red**, without even two hairs of another color, and without any other form of blemish. These heifers are an essential part of **sacrificial purity laws**. Their ashes are required, as stated in the Book of Numbers, to **purify the Temple’s priests and its altars**.

However, these laws have been largely irrelevant for centuries because there hasn't been a functioning Temple in well over a millennium where these cows could be sacrificed. Nevertheless, some religious traditions suggest that before the Third Temple is built (which heralds the messianic era long prayed for by both Jews and Christians), a pure red heifer will be sacrificed once again.

Here's what this means for different groups:

1. **Judaism**: The prophesied messianic era includes the return of biblical laws of purity, allowing for truly holy life. The restoration of Israel as a nation and Jerusalem becoming a Jewish city (which happened partially in 1967) are prerequisites. The birth of a red heifer to purify everything is also part of this vision.

2. **Evangelical Christians**: For them, the appearance of a red heifer would herald the **End Times**, Jesus' return to Earth, and the Rapture. This belief has driven Christian Zionism and lobbying on behalf of Israel.

3. **The Recent Birth**: According to an announcement in the UK tabloid *The Mirror*, a red heifer has been born in Israel — the first one born there in 2,000 years! The *Temple Institute*, based in Jerusalem and led by American-born Orthodox rabbi Chaim Richman, advocates for building the Third Temple. They will carefully examine this calf as it grows for any blemishes to determine if it's time to start construction.

4. **Breeding Efforts**: The Temple Institute has been working to breed sacrificial cows for years after importing red Angus cows from Nebraska. Several calves have been born with great excitement, and some have been shipped from the U.S., where Evangelical Christian farmers support these Jewish efforts.

While some Jews believe that the Third Temple can only be built during the prophesied messianic age, groups like the Temple Institute believe that Jews must take prophecy into their own hands. Whether you view this as relevant to the end times is a matter of debate.

It may be that Zionists see the book of Isaiah, specifically **Isaiah 2:2-4** (King James Version): as referring to the rebuilding of a third temple

"And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, 'Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.'"

This passage speaks of a future time when a **mountain**, symbolizing God's dwelling place, will be established as preeminent among all other mountains. People from **all nations** will seek wisdom and guidance there. The vision includes a promise of peace—swords transformed into plowshares and an end to war. However the verse does not specifically refer to a physical temple.

It appears the main purpose of this post is to promote a book favoring Israel. However, the likelihood of constructing a new temple in Jerusalem is slim.

The topic of the posting was supposed to be interesting, but you have made it so boring and so dry that I almost fell asleep. You just read from portions of the internet, which was full of jargon and technical terms that were never explained. You used examples of anecdotes and visuals to make his points clearer or more engaging, but it did not work. You did not invite any feedback, or show any enthusiasm for your subject. It was like listening to a robot reciting a textbook. I learned nothing from his presentation and I felt like I wasted my time listening to your long tedious American accent that I find to be nauseating.

Salvation is not a matter of mere belief. It requires a change of heart and a turning away from sin. The Bible teaches that repentance is the essential condition for salvation. Without repentance, there is no forgiveness of sins. Simply asking for forgiveness will not save anyone who does not repent of their wickedness and follow God's commands. Forgiveness is only the first step towards a deeper and more meaningful relationship with God. You also need salvation. Salvation is the gift of God's grace that saves us from the consequences of our sins and restores us to His presence. Salvation is not something we can earn or deserve, but something we can receive by faith in Jesus Christ, who died for our sins and rose again. Salvation is not just a one-time event, but a lifelong process of growing in God's love and becoming more like Him. Salvation is not only for the afterlife, but for the here and now, as we experience God's peace, joy, and purpose in our lives.

I hope you can make some improvements in your life and start speaking in terms of repentance. Just seeking forgiveness is not sufficient. Nobody will benefit from merely listening to you. It's like visiting a GP with a problem and receiving only a partial solution. You will still need to find the complete solution on your own. That is what most of the GPs in my area are like—completely useless, just like you.

Former US President Donald Trump has been fined $2.4 million by the Federal Election Commission for violating campaign finance laws in the 2016 election. According to the FEC, Trump's campaign accepted donations from corporations and foreign nationals, failed to report or misreported millions of dollars in spending, and coordinated with a pro-Trump super PAC that spent more than $30 million on ads and other activities.

The FEC also found that Trump's campaign illegally reimbursed his personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, for a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels, who claimed to have had an affair with Trump. The payment was intended to silence Daniels and prevent her from going public with her allegations before the election. The FEC said that the payment was an in-kind contribution to Trump's campaign that exceeded the legal limit and was not properly disclosed.

Trump has denied any wrongdoing and has repeatedly attacked the FEC as a partisan and corrupt institution. He has also refused to pay the fine, claiming that he is the victim of a witch hunt and that the FEC has no authority over him. His lawyers have filed a lawsuit challenging the fine and seeking to overturn the FEC's decision.

The former president has been dealt another further severe blow by the New York Supreme Court, which has imposed hefty fines on him and banned him from working for any New York company for three years. The court found Mr Trump guilty of civil fraud, after he had misrepresented the value of his properties to secure better loan and insurance conditions. The fines amount to $US354.9 million ($544 million), which could have a significant impact on the Trump Organisation's finances, reputation and operations.

The legal troubles of Trump are far from over, as he faces multiple lawsuits and penalties that could drag on for a long time until the next presidential race. He has to deal with various charges and accusations, ranging from tax fraud to inciting violence, that will damage his reputation and finances.

Trump's prospects are bleak at the next election. He is facing an unprecedented level of scrutiny and opposition from all sides. He has no allies, few resources, and no credibility. He is doomed to fail again and again, until he is left alone and forgotten in a dismal nursing home. This is the inevitable outcome of his actions and choices. Trump is not the Antichrist and if finished.

You are reading this from a good source that deserves praise for its work. I share the same views and I think it is well-written. The text is informative and helpful for anyone who wants to learn more about the Bible and salvation. The source of this content is credible and reliable, and I respect its quality. Wherever you are reading this from provides facts and arguments that I find valid and correct.

You have made some good points in your argument, and I appreciate your effort to support them with evidence. However, I see that you cannot help yourself and have started to veer off course with incorrect viewpoints at the end. You seem to ignore the facts that contradict your position and rely on logical fallacies to make your case. This weakens your credibility and undermines your whole argument.

For example; some people claim that we are living in the end times, but they also say that before the end comes, the gospel has to be preached to the whole world. This is a contradiction, because the gospel has not reached every nation and people group yet. How can we expect the end to come if God's plan is not fulfilled? We should focus on spreading the good news of Jesus Christ instead of speculating about the date of His return.

You will also still need to stop spreading misinformation and false claims that can have serious consequences for public health and safety. It is important to rely on credible sources of information and evidence, and to avoid sharing unverified or misleading content. To prevent further harm and confusion, you need to stop these conspiracy theories and promote positive thinking and correct Bible literacy.

However, what you have mentioned are not the 10 Essential Christian Bible-Beliefs but a mishmash of other quotations from various sources. The 10 Essential Christian Bible-Beliefs are based on the teachings of Jesus Christ and the apostles, as recorded in the New Testament. They are the core doctrines that define Christianity and distinguish it from other religions. They are also the foundation for living a godly life and growing in spiritual maturity.

Here are the 10 Essential Christian Bible-Beliefs!

Christians believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, and that it reveals his character, his will, and his plan for humanity. The Bible is not just a collection of stories, but a unified message of salvation through Jesus Christ. Here are 10 essential beliefs that Christians derive from the Bible:

- God is the creator and ruler of the universe. He is eternal, holy, and loving. He exists in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1; Psalm 90:2; John 3:16; Matthew 28:19)

- Humans are made in the image of God, but they have sinned and fallen short of his glory. Sin separates them from God and leads to death and judgment. (Genesis 1:27; Romans 3:23; 6:23; Hebrews 9:27)

- Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who became a human being through the virgin birth. He lived a sinless life, performed miracles, taught the truth, died on the cross for our sins, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven. He is the only way to God and the only mediator between God and humans. (John 1:1-14; 14:6; 1 Timothy 2:5; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4)

- Salvation is a gift of God by his grace through faith in Jesus Christ. It is not based on human works or merit. Anyone who believes in Jesus as their Lord and Savior is forgiven of their sins, reconciled to God, and given eternal life. (Ephesians 2:8-9; John 3:16; Romans 10:9-10)

- The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, who indwells every believer at the moment of conversion. He guides, teaches, empowers, and gifts believers for godly living and service. He also convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. (John 14:16-17; 16:7-11; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 12:4-11)

- The Church is the body of Christ, composed of all believers from every nation, tribe, and tongue. The Church exists to worship God, edify one another, and proclaim the gospel to the world. The Church is also called to practice baptism and communion as ordinances instituted by Christ. (Ephesians 1:22-23; 4:11-16; Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 2:42-47)

- The Bible is the final authority for faith and practice for Christians. It is inspired by God and without error in its original manuscripts. It is profitable for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 19:7-11)

- Angels are spiritual beings created by God to serve him and his people. They are powerful, but not omnipotent or omniscient. They are holy, but some of them rebelled against God and became evil. Satan is the leader of these fallen angels, who oppose God and his purposes. (Hebrews 1:14; Psalm 103:20-21; Jude 6; Revelation 12:7-9)

- The Future is in God's hands, who knows the end from the beginning. He has revealed some aspects of his plan in the Bible, such as the return of Christ, the resurrection of the dead, the final judgment, and the new heaven and earth. Christians are called to live in hope and readiness for these events. (Isaiah 46:10; Matthew 24:36-44; Revelation 20:11-15; 21:1-5)

- The Glory of God is the ultimate goal of all things. He alone deserves all praise, honor, and worship. He displays his glory in his creation, his redemption, his providence, and his revelation. Everything exists for his glory and pleasure. (Psalm 115:1; Romans 11:36; Revelation 4:11)

The Roman and Assyrian bloodline is a term used to describe the descendants of the ancient Roman and Assyrian empires, which dominated the Mediterranean and Mesopotamian regions respectively. The Roman and Assyrian bloodline is not a homogeneous group, but rather a diverse collection of people who share some cultural, linguistic, religious, or genetic traits inherited from their ancestors. Some examples of people who claim or are claimed to have Roman and Assyrian bloodline are the Italians, the Lebanese, the Syrians, the Iraqis, the Armenians, the Kurds. Many people and many nations in other words. 

You are wrong. You are not presenting any evidence or logic to support your claim that Trump is the Antichrist based on his ancestry. You are just making up a story that has no basis in reality or in the Bible. You are trying to connect dots that do not exist, and you are ignoring the facts that contradict your theory. Trump is neither Roman nor Assyrian, and even if he were, that would not prove anything about his role in the end times. You are spreading false information and fear among people who do not know better. You should stop and reconsider your sources and your motives.

The end times temple of God is a concept that refers to the belief that a third temple will be built in Jerusalem before the return of Jesus Christ. Some Christians and Jews believe that this temple will fulfil the prophecies of the Old and New Testaments, and that it will be the centre of worship and sacrifice during the millennium. Others believe that the temple is symbolic of the church or the body of Christ, and that no physical temple is necessary. The end times temple of God is a controversial and disputed topic among different religious groups and scholars.

Some people may wonder if there is a possibility of having a Temple of God on the earth, where they can worship and connect with the divine. However, this does not seem very plausible, considering the nature and attributes of God. God is not limited by space or time, and He does not dwell in buildings made by human hands. God is everywhere, and He can be accessed through faith, prayer and obedience. Therefore, a Temple of God on the earth would not be necessary or appropriate, as it would imply that God is confined or restricted to a certain place.

A common mistake that many people make is to jump to conclusions without considering all the facts and implications. This can lead to poor decisions, misunderstandings, and conflicts. It is important to think things through before taking action or forming an opinion. Thinking things through means analysing the situation, gathering relevant information, evaluating the pros and cons, and anticipating the consequences. By doing this, one can avoid making hasty and irrational judgements that may cause regret or harm later. Before sharing anything online, think about the potential consequences of your words and actions. Wake up to yourself.

Are you suggesting that Hamas attacked Israel on October 07th, because Israel brought in a red female cow to offer as a sacrifice in an alleged temple? That is total nonsense. There is no evidence to support such a claim. It is based on faulty logic, biased sources, and cherry-picked data. Anyone who believes this is either ignorant, misled, or dishonest. This is not a matter of opinion but of fact. Anyone who disagrees with this is welcome to present their arguments, but will be met with rigorous scrutiny and rebuttal. Who is putting you up to coming out with sort of crap. 

Hamas’ surprise attack on October 7 left Israel flat-footed, sparking a backlash that is still rippling through the country.

The operation saw at least 1,500 Hamas fighters pour across the border into Israel, in an assault that killed at least 1,200 Israelis, while others are still held hostage by the militant group.

But a report from the New York Times claimed Israel obtained Hamas’ plan for the attack more than a year in advance.

The report says Israeli officials dismissed the plan as aspirational and deemed it too complex for the group to carry out. Other outlets, including the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, have also reported the claim.

Israeli officials obtained a document describing Hamas’ battle plan for its October 7 terror attack more than a year before the militant group carried out the assault, the New York Times reported Thursday, citing documents, emails and interviews.

The roughly 40-page document did not give a date for the attack but outlined “point by point” the kind of deadly incursion that Hamas carried out in Israeli territory in October, according to the Times, which reviewed the translated document.

The document, which the Israeli authorities code-named “Jericho Wall,” detailed an assault that would overwhelm fortifications around the Gaza Strip, take over Israeli cities and target key military bases. It was followed with precision by Hamas on October 7, the Times said.

On that day, Hamas militants struck across the border from Gaza in a coordinated assault in what was the deadliest single-day assault on Israel since the country’s founding in 1948 Israel knew it was coming and they allowed it to happen so could launch all-out genocide against Gaza.
