Are
Christians certain they'll be saved on the day of Judgement? Not according to the saying of their
"so called saviour".
On
judgment day many will say to me, 'Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and
cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.' But I
will reply, 'I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God's laws.'
(Matthew 7:22-23)
Pause
for a moment! This is something to think about. Christians keep telling us, how
Jesus died for their sins, and how they are saved. Anyone who rejects the son
will be in eternal fire blah blah blah. Yet the above saying by their own god
seems to suggest something else about them. It's clear from the text, on
judgement day "many" will approach Jesus and tell how they served
him, but in response Jesus would deny them as his followers?
What's
more, the text doesn't specify who these Christians are? I.e. what sect,
denomination, church etc. In other words, this could apply to any Christian. Thus,
they have no certainty if they would not be amongst those people
"Jesus" will condemn.
Christians
must accept they could be part of this condemned group. If any Christians claim they are not part of
that that group, ask them for evidence.
How could you honestly count yourself as not being part of that group?
The text tells us, those people were believers, they prophesised, cast out demons,
performed many miracles. This is exactly what every day Christians do, or at
least claim they do. They prophecies, cast demons, do miracles in their church,
they even call Jesus lord. So, what's the difference between those Christians
whom Jesus will deny and the Christians we have now? Nothing!
This
is a serious problem for Christian who claim they are saved, when in reality
they have no certainty on where will happen to them. Now moving on to the next part, why is Jesus
going to condemn these "Believers? It happened to be, that these people,
though they claim to be believers are in reality evil. The text goes to tells
us "you who break God's laws." i.e. you never kept the commands of
God. This Law of God is so important to Jesus, that he is willing to deny his
own followers who were going everything in his name. Jesus himself made it
clear how important the Law of God is :
"Do
not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come
to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly I tell you, until heaven and
earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will
by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Whosoever
therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so,
he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do
and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
(Matthew 5: 17-19)
Here
Jesus himself is declaring how important the Law of God is. You're not to even
break one of these commandments. 613 laws of God, Jesus came to fulfil them
all, how many do Christians accept and reject? If you reject then your doomed,
your Jesus will deny you. However, if you accept them all then you are saved.
How
many Christians agree with each commandments in the Old Testament starting with
killing a disobedient child, or apostate? Saying these laws, we're for the Jews
not gentiles won't help you, as the saying of your Jesus does not specify what
race or tribe. The laws mean law.
Thus,
we can conclude, unless Christians abide by the 613 Laws as instructed by their
Jesus, they have no certainty of being saved!
