1 The apostle Paul Taught Salvation is also a physcial work and at the same time A great Competition of running a spiritual race that is run to save spiritual self. By Grace God Gives Christ Y esus as our Bridge To Salvation There is a place of eternal torment Hell shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever Do -Not Be Deceived! The Spirit of Man is saved, Only If He Does The Work God requires as prerequisites to being saved. Willard R. Wade 1

2 Rom. 3:28; Rom 4:1-6; Gal. 2:21; 1Pet 2:22 I will use the Ekklesia Bible translation which is a more perfect Bible translation. If you do not agree with the Ekklesia Bible translation then I warn you to make your study directly from the ancient languages of the Bible. Here is what the disciples of the devil will not teach you. Everywhere in scripture we are warned about the disciples of Satan that God has created the wicked for the only purpose to see if we can be deceive by them. Beware the disciples of Satan translate their own false Bibles that are purposely slanted with the only purpose to deceive us. Christ gives us the first warning few will learn or find the true way to be saved. He taught Strait meaning hard to Find and hard to get through is the way. {7:13} Enter you in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. {7:14} For strait [hard to find and hard to get through] is the gate, and narrow is the way, that leads unto life, and few are they that find it. 15 Beware of false [lying] prophets, who come to you in sheep s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. 2

3 Luke {16:16} The law [through Moses] and the prophets [were] until John: from that time the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached, and every man enters by force into it. Col.{2:8} Take heed lest there shall be any one that makes spoil of you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. First let us set our Bible study rules so we can not possible be deceived by the disciples of Satan. Teaching us how we are to be saved, The New Testament is written Line upon line here a little, there a little, to complicate learning how to be saved. If we are so carless that we can allow self to be deceived by the wicked God has created to see if we can be deceived, and if we are deceived, then God does not want us in heaven with him. Isaiah warns learning how to be saved you must be weaned from the breast or we must become educated in the word of God 3

4 because how to be saved will be complicated so the lazy, the proud, the easy to be deceived and the wicked can be separated from coming to live with God in Heaven. Isaiah {28:9} Whom will he teach knowledge? and whom will he make to understand the message? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts? {28:10} For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little. {28:11} Nay, but by [men of] strange lips and with another tongue will he speak to this people; {28:12} to whom he said, This is the rest, give you rest to him that is weary; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. {28:13} Therefore shall the word of Yehovah be unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. Don t allow self to be snared by the disciples of Satan. 4

5 The disciple of the devil will always take one or two Bible verses and then twist them out of context to make their false doctrines (Instructions from God). Know the so called Bible Doctrine (instructions from God) first taught by these two men. Martin Luther John Calvin Martin Luther and John Calvin teach Once saved always saved. After once being saved, To begin to hate and, you un-repented wicked works will not make you -unsaved. The question remains, once saved will our unrighteous works of beginning to hate and disobey God cause us to become un-saved. Just how just plain stupid can people get to believe such a ridiculous doctrine as instructions from God Once saved always saved. The devils doctrine is the teaching All professing Christians are once Saved by grace or by Faith alone are always Saved. The teach you are always saved even when you hate God and if hating god would kill God if they could but god will still save them. What a most stupid and deceptive Bible teaching that is not found 5

6 written just once in the entire Bible. The word Faith is a homonym word or faith has different word definitions. One kind of Faith is nothing more than to think what you selfishly want from God is nothing more than your selfish desire. We are not saved by the Faith from out of our selfish desires. The other kind of faith through righteousness (works) trusting in obedience through the law of Faith. Anyone who gives you a different word definition for the law of Faith that saves self is trying to deceive you. Some disciples of Satan will actually teach that after being saved and then the once saved the individual that will change their mind and begin to hate God then they are teaching that God will force the wicked to be saved even when the wicked have begun to hate God and do not want God to save them. They teach once saved there is no wicked state of your mind that can stop you from being saved. This false teaching is against everything taught in the entire Bible. 4) These wicked men and women teach once you are saved, and after you change your mind and begin to disobey and hate God you can murder until the day you die and your murdering until the day you die will not make you un-saved. The Bible does not teach nor so much as hint at anything like that ridiculous fail teaching from the disciples of Satan. 6

7 Now let us look carefully at the Bible verses they use to try to twist the Bible record to try and make the record say our righteous works is no any part of what is saving us. At the coming of Christ there was different laws of certain sects of the Jews. There was the law of God through Moses and there was the many different laws of the heart doctrine (instructions from God) called the Jewish Halakah. The Jews were divided. The Pharisee Jews kept their unwritten law or the oral law of the mind called the Halakhah. If you do not know the Halakhah law of the Jews then before you teach the Bible you should learn this law to understand the teaching of the apostle Paul The apostle Paul was at first a Pharisee and Paul wrote Romans chapter 3 verse 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works [though Moses]? No: but by the law of faith. Paul taught that the Faith that saves us is the Nomos or is the law. Paul said the New Testament The Greek Nomos or law is the law of Christ. Galatians chapter 6 verse 2 Bear ye one another s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Christ has a law. Now notice to be saved by grace alone here is what becomes what is -not needed or necessary to be saved. Then without necessity, there is no amount of wicked work you can do that will make you un-saved. 1) Truth. They falsely teach that we do not need absolute truth (or the state of the case) will not save you. 7

8 If you can actually sit there and believe Christ taught Know the truth and the truth will set you free from sin (John 8:32b). Then according to Christ without truth having (the state of the case) in our doctrine (instruction from God) we will never be free from sin. Clearly without truth we are still in our sins. No sinner with sins still on him or her can go to heaven To be saved by Grace or the selfish kind of Faith is just the opposite or this false teaching completely eliminates what Christ taught that we are saved or made free from Sin by what truth or the state of the case is. If we do not have truth in our walk then the blood of Christ does not make us free from Sin without truth.. 2) False teaching Save by Grace or selfish kind of faith is without so much as learning to know Christ is not necessary to be saved. If we do not need to know Christ to be saved then every person in the entire world is saved if we are only saved by Grace or a selfish kind of Faith alone. 3) Now notice carefully what the disciples of Satan are teaching, you can not be made -unsaved by hating God and continual wicked works. Once you are saved and you change you mind and begin to hate God, the same God who once saved you, once saved you can begin to hate God and commit the most wicked sins until the day you die and the wicked will teach that God will force you in your total wickedness to be saved what a most stup and ignorant false teachning anyone shoudl know better. 8

9 If you really believe God exist and the Bible is God breathed then I beg you to be careful what you teach against God. WE must be careful to note what law Paul is writing about. Paul wrote that he had what he thought was law of righteousness, but now he counted it as garbage. See Philippians 3:4-9" Christ first Chose Saul or Christ Called Out Saul of Tarsus because Saul was the man created to do the Job. Don t kick Paul. What do we know for certain about Paul (the word meaning of the name Paul is The Little or the insignificant man). The Apostle Paul was at first Saul (meaning the exulted one) of Tarsus, a Pharisee of Pharisees. Meaning Saul was a devout Pharisee and his law was the law of the Pharisee. Not notice very carefully, the law of the Pharisee was the Halakah or oral law of the heart (or the mind). It was against the law of the Jews to write this law down called The Halakhah. Agin not ecarefully, The Pharisee Jews identified this law of the mind as their Halakah which was against the law to write this Halakah law down. Do you know for certain anything about the Jewish Halakah or the unwritten law of the heart. Christ condemned some of the traditions of the law the Halakah which was changed to supersede the law of God through Moses. When PAUL writes he is writing about two very different Old Testament laws. 9

10 Paul wrote about his old law of the Pharisee Called THE HALAKAH. SO WHAT DO KNOW FOR CER- TAIN ABOUT THIS UNWRITTEN LAW OF THE MIND or the unwritten law of the HEART? The unwritten Halakah of the Pharisees Jews was not allowed to be written down until the second century after the coming of the Christ. The Jews only in the second century finally wrote down the law of the Halakah. Do you absolutely understand what was just stated. What do you know for certain about what is d the world of difference between the Pharisee Halakah law of the Pharisee Jews from the written law of God though Moses. The Halakhah of the Pharisee superseded the Law of God through Moses similar to the Catechism of the Catholic church -Supersedes anything written the Bible. The Pharisees only had the Halakah or law of the heart which was an unwritten law that superseded the law of God through Moses. Do you fully understand this fact? The Halakah of the Jews superseded the law of God through Moses similar to the Catechism law of the Catholic church supersedes the law of Christ in the New Testament. Yes, yes the Halakah law of Saul of Tarsus was the law of the heart or the Halakah which law is truly discovered to be a law of garbage. Christ and Paul both taught you can not be saved by the Halakah or the unwritten law of the Pharisee. Now you should begin to understand the teaching of Paul and his old law of the Halakah that cannot save self. 10

11 Written October 30, 2005 Last edit February 25, 2016 Editor Willard R. Wade Introduction We though our obedience to God purify or make sinless our souls. First Petros {1:22} Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned philadelphia love of the brethren, agape love one another from the heart fervently: I am totally disgusted with some of our brethren teaching the false doctrine once saved always saved without good works. Can a man who is truly saved and this same saved man change his mind and he decides he hates his creator God and he would kill God if he could. He begins to hate you and hate every one else so he decides to murder you and all your loved ones until he is finally killed by the police. Is this man made un-saved by his wicked works? You think God would want such a wicked person coming to live with him in heaven as some of our brethren are now teaching this false doctrine? In this Bible study We do not altogether use The Ekklesia Bible to teach against Apostasy or false doctrine (instructions from God). 11

12 To show the difference in Bible translations, To compare the difference in translations we will use some of the same translated Bibles of the false teachers who are teaching we are not saved by our righteous works. I do not believe there is a honest man alive who will read all these scriptural evidences and then still teach we are totally saved by Grace or by Faith alone and without our good works in obedience to our heavenly Father. The problem is Martin Luther and John Calvin take out of context the time tense of our trials from salvation. Romans chapter 4 absolute has nothing at all to do with the work of man necessary of running the race to be saved. Romans chapter 4 is speaking only of the grace or the gift of God that will give man the right to run the race he must run to be saved. The same applies in Ephesians 2_8-9. See this translation of the Ekklesia Bible {2:8} for by grace have you been saved [past tense] through faith; and that not of yourselves [past tense], [it is] the gift of God; {2:9} not of [past] works, that no man should glory. {2:10} For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Y ehsus for good works [present tense], which God in the past prepared that we should walk in them. Clearly Paul is teaching that -No man or woman was working to deserved or to cause Christ to come to earth and to die for them and make The way for them to be saved. 12

13 Faith is obedience to the law of God and is not only a selfish desire to get something without working for it or withour first qualifying or deserving it. Paul spoke in the Greek aroist or simple -past tense and is teaching no one was working in truth to cause God to send Christ to save us. If you do not understand this fact you can not understand the teaching of the apostle Paul. Paul was at first a Pharisee and the law that Paul kept.paul is teaching his Halskhah was not the law of God through Moses. As a Pharisee Paul kept the Halakhah or the oral law of the mind. The Halakhah law of the Pharisee actually superseded the law of God through Moses, similar to the Catholic Catechism supersedes the law of God in the New Testament or similar to the book of Mormon supersedes the New Testament. So then we have the right to do the work of God only because God by Grace has made the way for us to do the work through His Gift or by Grace to be saved. 1Corinthians 9:24} Know you not that they that run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? Even so run; that you may attain. {9:25} And every man that strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they [do it] to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. If you must run a race to be saved then iy is impossible to be saved by Faith or Grace alone. 13

14 I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air: {9:27} but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. If Paul can be rejected we also can be rejected if we do not bring our bodies into subjection to God. Heb 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. I can give you over one hundred verses like the above and following verses that is teaching clearly without righteous works we will not be saved. If you prefer the doctrine or instruction from the devil then you will surely suffer the consequences. Did the same Paul who wrote the verses that some will teach that they can not be made un-saved without good works. Paul said; if he did not do the good work of 14

15 buffeting his body and bring his body in control he would be rejected for not doing the good work of body control. Paul said clearly; if he did not do the work of buffeting his body and bring his body in control he would be rejected for not doing this good work. What foolish ignorant man will say that the apostle Paul is telling a lie when he said salvation is to run a race to be crowned. No it is true man does not merit the right to run the race to salvation to be crowned with eternal life. Christ paid the price for the entrance fee and only he has made the way to run the race to be crowned with eternal life and then gives us the invitation to come get in the race and to run the race for our eternal life. No man can ever say in truth that he has not ever sinned against God. God has only promised with His covenant that any who obey Him do stop sinning against Him He will surely save. Our God has a great and the most ingenious plan needed to filter out or to separate the wicked from the righteous. The righteous are those who completely stop committing their wicked sins against their creator God. Anyone who says you can not stop sinning against God is the devil s disciple. If we could not control self and stop sinning then our creator God would not command us to stop sinning every sin against Him. Reason these fact for a moment. If (a little word but a great qualifier) there is truly the creator God and if God is truly making a place for those who agape love their heavenly Father and the Father agape loves all who will obey 15

16 God, all who will come out of self and allow God to take control over self. Then our heavenly Father has promised us that he will separate the wicked from the righteous and make a place in heaven for the righteous who do overcome. God gives us this promise or agreement This place he prepares in heaven, is a place where there is no more need for competition like here on earth. Heaven is a place where there is no pain or no mental sorrow. In that place in heaven there will be no continual thief or no murderer allowed to go there. No continual liars will ever be allowed to come this place where God has created for the righteous. There will be no continual drunks or drug addicts. A place where there will be no need for locks on doors or anything else because no one who has a hear to continue to sin will be allowed to go there (he who steals or lies). All people who go there agape love one another with a genuine benevolent care for the welfare of the other. To fulfill his promise to us, There becomes a great need for our heavenly Father to create the most ingenious plan to filter out those who hate one another, those who never stop sinning but the will continue to lie, those who continue to steal and those who simply can not ever come out of self and allow God to take control over their selfishness, their every sexual desires, and stop their every sin against their creator God. Martin Luther John Calvin the Great deceivers 16

17 Now notice, In his most ingenious plan to save us and to filter out the wicked, there is a great need for God to create the devil and his disciples to try us to see if we can be deceived. Christ declares salvation is only to the ones who overcomes. Overcoming is to win over a competition over sin. Anyone knows that to overcome is to win in any kind of competition. Salvation is a competition that God makes easy but God has created Satan and his disciples who will make being saved a hard to find and a great and fierce competition. This is the plan of God designed to save us and filter out those who refuse to stop sinning and if the wicked continual sinner were allowed to come to heaven those who refuse to stop sinning would make heaven a miserable place just like living on earth with the disciples of Satan. Paul wrote 1Cor 9:24 Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain. 25 And every man that strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 26 I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air: 27 but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. The apostle John 5:5 declares who is he that believes but he that overcomes the world. Then it only makes perfect sense it is only the over-comer in what makes the true Bible Believer in God. If we do not overcome then we 17

18 are not the kind of believer that is needed to do the work to be saved. According to John We are not a believer if we do not overcome the world. 1Cor 9:24; Eph 4; Heb 12:1 The apostle Paul and the Hebrew writer declares salvation is a great competition or a race that is necessary to run to win eternal life. Any half a brain nit wit knows we cannot win any race sitting down on our back sides. We are warned everywhere in the Bible record, we can deceive self. Every Bible writer in the entire Bible. are warning us that others can lie to us and if we allow they can and will deceive us and if we are deceived we will be robbed of eternal life. We are also warned we can deceive ourselves and if we deceive self we will not be saved. We may want to be saved but we are warned we must not allow self to be deceived and in any self deceit we will not be saved. So we must stop dreaming and put on the awesome reality of the here and now and get busy doing the true work of God to save self. The apostle Petros declares Save your self from this untoward generation Acts 2: 40. The apostle second John1:10 gives us warning if others do not bring this kind of truth in doctrine (instructions from God requiring works of God needed to be saved), do not bid them God speed or allow such a person to come into our house. I do not know of anyone who teaches that we Christians are saved without the grace of God or without the blood sacrifice of Y ehsus (mistranslated as Jesus see my article who changed the true phonetic name of the Christ?) 18

19 It is only how the grace of God is applied where men differ in how through the grace of God He now saves us. I do not know of any Bible teacher that teaches that we can be saved without faith or trust in God by believing in God through Faith. First we must let the scriptures determine what Faith is. The apostle Paul wrote that faith is law (see translation from the Greek word nomos by ASV) Romans chapter 3 verse 27. Now if you hate what Paul said that the Greek word nomos or that the faith of God is Law then you just as well stop here and forget about learning the law of faith in truth that will save you. It is how the works of the law of faith is applied by the Christian that makes the difference in understanding how we Christians are saved by the law of Faith (also see Ephesians chapter 3 verse 27 see King James version). Now if you have the New International Version of the Bible they remove the word Law from the Bible record to deceive you so that you would never know that the faith of God is law or legal or legalistic. I do not know anyone who teaches we can be saved without first believing in Y ehsus. So what is believing. What is not believing in God. Believing in God is a work that saves. Not believing in God does not save so what is believing. Believing is to simply obey God by doing the works instructed by God. If we do not obey God we then according to God we do not believe in God. If we do not believe in God we will not be allowed to enter the promised land. Here are the facts. 19

20 God sets the example of what believing is with the sin of Moses. This example of sin is for us to show us what a believer in God is. It is very important that we understand that to believe God is simply doing precisely what God command us to do. If we add or take away from what God commands us to do, then we are not believers in God. Study this record carefully and in all humility and honesty. Believe God only but doing exactly what he commands us to do. Notice carefully what is the meaning to Sanctify God. To obey God word for word only then do we sanctify our God. Moses a man wanted for murder, was called by God to by Faith lead His people out of Bondage. God promised Moses if he by Faith he struggles and Sanctifies God by obeying God that he (Moses) will be allowed to enter the Promised Land. God commands Moses to use his staff (Rod) to make miracles from God. Read from the book of Exodus how Moses is to use his staff and in some situations Moses is to hit with the staff to cause God to make miracles for the people of God. In the desert the people needed water and God commands Moses to take his staff and hit the rock to get water and water came out of the Rock after Moses hit the rock with his staff. Exodus 17:6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may 20
