Inside the Gospel

“Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; 5 for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.” (1 Timothy 4:1-3)

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ (2 Corinthians 10:3-5).

Are you one of the many victims of an unbroken curse? Today, countless Christians throughout the world are plagued by unexplained poverty, calamities, and a variety of adverse circumstances. Their lives are tragically filled with heartache and desperation as they continuously struggle against overpowering temptation, physical and mental illness, and a myriad of catastrophic events. Usually they are unaware that their plight is the result of an unbroken curse that has been placed upon them and perhaps upon their families.

Everybody who dies will either go to Heaven or Hell to exist in eternal peace or torment.

Everybody dies. The scripture says so: Psa. 22:29 "...none can keep alive his own soul"; Heb. 9:27 "...it is appointed unto men once to die..."; Gen. 3:19 "...for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return"; Psa. 104:29 "...Thou takest away their breath,they die, and return to their dust"; Ecc. 12:7 "Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it"; Ecc. 3:20 "All go to one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again"; Psa. 89:48 "What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death..."; Ecc. 9:5 "For the living know that they shall die...".

And everybody who dies will either go to Heaven or Hell to exist in eternal peace or torment.

Heaven is my kind of place; eternity with God, how wonderful is that! Sadly there are some out there today that would want you and I to believe that believers are in heaven here on earth while they are living. This is wrong, it's error. The scripture says so: Matt. 6:20, Heb. 11:16 and 1 Peter 1:4).

It would seem that this erroneous concept grows out of a misunderstanding of Rev. chapter 21 verses 1, 2 and 10 in particular. These passages are describing the New Jerusalem (the Church)not Heaven on earth. Heaven on earth is most assuredly not, the same thing as being in Heaven. Besides, John clearly stated that the New Jerusalem descended "out of Heaven" from God and therefore is plainly not an image of Heaven. Rather it is an image of God coming down to tabernacle with man in a restored relationship. Heaven is a post physical death location for all eternity for those covered by the blood of Jesus our Christ.

Hell is strong English word that invokes strong emotions and feelings. In the KJV of the Bible the word hell appears 55 times and is translated from several Geek works and one Hebrew word:

Greek (geenna): geenna is translated in the New Testament 12 times all as "hell". (hades): hades is translated into English 11 times; 10 times as "hell", 1 time as "grave". (tartarus): tartarus is render only 1 time into English as "hell".

Hebrew (sheol): sheol is translated in the Old Testament 65 times; 31 times as "grave", 31 times as "hell" and 3 times as "pit".

Now that we have the words involved let's ponder the subject for a few. When a person dies the spirit of said person continues to exist past that physical death. Before the resurrection of the last day is spirit held "alive" and very much conscious by God in hades. Hades has two realms: paradise and tartarus. Paradise, good and desirable. Tartartus, bad and undesirable. Blood covered Believers, (paradise), awaiting the resurrection of life (John 5:29 and Dan. 12:2), the "first resurrection" (Rev. 20:3-6 and Matt. 12:26-27) and the wicked unbelieving sinners, (tartartus), awaiting in "chains of darkness" "reserved unto judgement" (II Peter 2:4 and Luke 16:19-31), the "second death" (Rev. 20:6); IE hades.

What is the grace of God? Simply put it is God's favor and kindness toward us. God rains down grace on all mankind. He gave us the beauty and wonders of nature that we see each and every day. He gives us near misses when accidents are heading our way. He often brings us the right thing just in time. And He also gave us an innate conscience to know right from wrong. All these things are common graces, and everyone born on the earth has the benefit of them because God so loved the world.

Romans 11:29 says, “For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.” “Without repentance” means that God won’t change His mind about what He has called you to do. If God has called you, that calling is still there, whether or not you have obeyed. And if God gave you a gift—if He gifted you along a certain line—that gift is still there!In this episode God's anointed vessel of Honor Tyranny Osborne exegete the passage giving us an in-depth understanding.
