In these last days, the devil is doing what he has always done; but he has ramped it up one hundred fold.
What does he do? He lies and confuses and takes the Word of God and twists it just a bit in order to deceive people.
He has millions of people across the globe believing that if they just do random acts of kindness; if they just give enough to charities, if they just affirm the LGBQT movement and abortion, etc etc – then surely God will bring them to heaven when they die.
The Word of God has made it clear to us that God does NOT affirm homosexuality or abortion (murder). He does love the person but will NEVER give His blessings to these sins.
These people only read the Beatitudes of Jesus. They insist on seeing Him only as Love, and indeed God IS Love. But He is also Righteous, Just and Holy. God the Father cannot be in the presence of sin. Yet He wishes none to perish.
You Are a Sinner
I remember saying to an unsaved member of my family that we all are sinners. The rage which came out of this person’s mouth was shocking. She said to me “I am NOT a sinner!” And she demanded that I stop talking about “religion.” She had no idea that I was not referring to “religion at all.
What is Religion?
Religion is man’s attempt to reach God. Christianity is when God reached down to save whomever would repent and place their trust in Him for the forgiveness of their sins.
“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9).
“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life” (Titus 3:5-7).
“But we are all like an unclean thing, And all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags; We all fade as a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, Have taken us away” (Isaiah 64:6).
Are you one who is trusting in “yourself” to get to heaven when you die? Friend, I am telling you what the Bible says about this – not my own opinion – God’s own words.
Jesus brought Man’s Sin to a whole new level
“But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Matthew 5:28).
“But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire” (Matthew 5:22).
Do you see that Jesus was telling us that even a bad thought is as if we had committed the sin? Who among us never has bad thoughts?
If we are honest with ourselves, and come to the place of repentance, and finally understand that there is no good within us; then we are closer to understanding the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Ten Commandments
These are the standards of God. We miss the mark – we cannot keep every commandment, especially when we realize that our thoughts are as deeds to the Lord.
God knew that it was impossible for us to be perfect within ourselves. But He in His love for us knew that there was only one thing to do. He sent his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to earth wrapped in human flesh. Why did He send Jesus?
There was one main reason why God chose to send His Son to earth: That was to die on the Cross. He was the perfect Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Those who heard this message had two choices. One – to ignore it. Two – to believe it and to confess that they are a sinner in need of a Savior, who is Jesus Christ.
Why Jesus?
Why is Jesus the Perfect Lamb of God? Because he IS God! He is God the Son. He was the final sacrifice for sin.
Father God in His desire to reconcile us to Himself, sent us what was most precious to Him – His only Begotten Son. Can you imagine what the Father felt as He saw His Son bleeding, suffering, dying and taking all the sin of the whole world onto Himself to bring men and women into a relationship with Him?
It was the Mercy of God to send His Son for us.
Jesus was 100% God and 100% man
I know that is hard to wrap your mind around – but it is truth. His resurrection after his death was proof that this was God the Son. After appearing to his followers, He ascended to heaven and sat down at the right hand of His Father.
The prayer of my heart is that people who are caught up in the Social Justice (false) gospel, will have their eyes opened by the Lord. I pray that they will understand that there is nothing we can do in our own strength to make us acceptable to be in God’s presence in heaven.
Good and kind deeds naturally come from a redeemed heart. This is evidence of being born again (saved).
Pray this prayer:
Father God, I come to You today knowing that I am a sinner. I understand that the only way to be right with You is through Your Son Jesus Christ. I repent of my sins and realize that I need a Savior – Jesus Christ – to save me from my sins. I ask that Jesus come into my heart and make me a new creation – the person who I was created to be. I thank you Father and I love you. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Shalom b’Yeshua
MARANATHA!
Hi Geri the Social Justice conversation we are talking about is ironic for me because before I was Born again years ago the Mormon Glenn Beck talked about Social Justice but really it’s something we as the Church need to expose and warn others about. Did you see the Social Justice and the Gospel Statement that came out?
No, I didn’t see that. Do you have a link?
Yes I will send it to you. Here it is. https://statementonsocialjustice.com
Thank you!
Your welcome.
I signed it because Social Justice is a threat to the Gospel.

Hello Geri,I have never written to you before. Can you tell me what you may know about Jews For Jesus? I received a notice for help from this group and I have heard of Moishe Rosen whom they tell me founded this group. He wrote a book called Jews For Jesus which I read. I am a native Marylander so we have something in common. I read all your articles that I can get. I never followed Face Book nor have a blog. However I do read wordpress but I don’t blog on it. Thank you for your time as I know you are one busy lady. God is using you in a mighty way. I am very thankful for all your writings as you keep on top of so much that is going on in this nation. Time is growing short and we must continue to reach all we can for Jesus. In His Love, Kathryn Downey

Greetings, Kathryn! Jews for Jesus is a good outreach ministry to Jewish people for them to know Yeshua (Jesus) as Savior. Moishe Rosen was a wonderful man. I used to read his articles a lot. I have never been part of Jews for Jesus – God has led me in other directions, and for the last four years He has helped me to write. Perhaps the Lord is leading you to give to Jews for Jesus? All I can say is that they are very passionate about sharing the Gospel to the Jewish people. Blessings in Yeshua 🙂
Yeah, Jews for Jesus is a good ministry.
They’re in your face with tracts, provoking reactions. Passionate indeed they are….
So, Brian- you don’t care for Jews for Jesus?
You are a TruthSayer.
Good post
Thank you Geri, you have written a most precise piece on the only way to be saved. The social justice gospels many churches a preaching will not safe any
Souls. We’re have been watching a series of sermons by John McArthur on the subject of social justice , most revealing and to the point as you make very clear here.
Bill Heggers.
I care very much for them!
I don’t directly support them. I do pray for their success bringing home the lost sheep of israel. Therefore I am not opposed to them either. They use a different style of witnessing then I do. Next fall I plan on visiting their Tel-Aviv branch.Sadly I never personally met Moishe Rosen. He definitely had passion for reaching his people and it lives on in J4J to this day!
There are many good Jewish evangelism ministries to support out there. Can’t support them all.
The ones I do I have personal connections to from building relationships over the years
In the USA =
Chosen People Ministries (My pastor is the CPM guy in Western PA)
CMJ USA (The Church Ministry among Jewish People)
In Israel=
One for Israel. They are VERY Effective. I’ll visit them next fall for sure!
Maoz Israel. They’re an excellent outreach
Shalom Brian
