Adam was the elect , he disbelieved what God had said because the devil told him it wasn’t true , the first false doctrine
then later God chose israel by grace and his promise to Abram for his descendants and later he gave them a law they refused to hear it and believe so again the elect were destroyed
“I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.”
Jude 1:5 KJV
and now he has said this
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;
but he that believeth not shall be damned.”
Mark 16:15-16 KJV
it is never going to be of God when we teach people to ignore his word and ways and commandments it’s always going to be satan saying “don’t worry about what he said , listen to me “
but we have been edifies to
Know this is prevalent and to avoid those teachers teaching as the false prophets of Jerusalem “ were chosen , God is Never going to bring his punishments to us and cut us off as he said , we’re the elect, eat drink and
Be merry”
it’s repetitive the word of God spoken To keep Man in life with him in his presence chosen and blessed having dominion , and soon after he establishes his covenant man begins to rebel and ignore and break the things he made plain and warned would bring death
it will always be that way and it’s proof to read some of the new order books out in the world “explaining “ things like “ election “ “ glorious grace” “ unconditional salvation “
sad when we have to reject Gods word and explain some different path
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.”
John 14:6, 21, 23-24 KJV
it didn’t matter what the word was what has always mattered is that we believe it
if Adam and Eve had believed the fruit was deadly , tethered than what Satan said they wouldn’t have eaten the fruit
if Cain had believed what God said to him , he would t have killed his brother and been cast away with the mark
if Noah had believed what God said to him , he would have built an ark and saved his family and himself by faith 😁
“By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.”
Hebrews 11:7 KJV
if Noah had heard what God said , and not believed it he wouldn’t have bothered obeying it.
it’s now down to what Jesus said forever in the gospel of the kingdom and if we begin to hear and believe it we’re going to be saved into his kingdom , if we follow the example of mankknd throughout history disbelieving and rejecting and making up new “ ways” to be saved and new reasons not to obey the lord it’s going to follow the same example as was always we will perish from his sight and those who hear and believed will live forever with the lord
to first hear Gods word and believe will make us move in Christ by the faith he imparts he teaches us to repent and walk upright he also enables us by faith to do it all that can get us is rejecting the truth of the gospel just like Adam rejected his word and followed another
but there are Many alternate roots nowadays only one still leads home to this place
“In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
John 14:2-6 KJV
we can’t get home to the lord unless we follow his words in the gospel
