  Those who think that the object of salvation is flesh   Human beings are made up of body and spirit. The body and spirit are united to become a living organism. The spirit thus becomes an inseparable part of the union from man. However, the object of salvation from God is not the flesh, but the spirit. Ecclesiastes 12:7 『 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. 』 Flesh comes from dust and returns to earth. However, the fact is that the spirit returns to God. In a conversation with Jesus and the Sadducees, Jesus answered the Sadducees' question about what happens to people when they die. In Luke 20:35-36, “ But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. In other words, the spirit un...

  Those who believe in Jesus but believe that salvation can be revoked   Those who believe in Jesus but believe that salvation can be revoked, they always think of the flesh as their identity. They believe that they have been saved by believing in Jesus, but there is an obsessive belief that their salvation can be canceled if they see themselves unsanctified in their flesh and fight evil and fall. So they think they have been saved by faith, but they have to do something about God to keep their salvation. To show the fragrance of Christ, to keep holiness, to show the image of God, to keep the heart that is called the temple of God, we fight evil and try not to sin while looking at the Ten Commandments. Some say, "Jesus also had a body with a sinful nature, but Jesus did not sin." They teach that in order to be like Jesus, those who believe in the path of Jesus must go the same way. They say that believers can be tempted by the devil just as Jesus was tempted by the de...

  Those who received only formal baptism and did not receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit   Baptism performed in the church is an outward expression of becoming God's people. It is called water baptism. However, as an inner expression, there is the baptism of the Holy Spirit. We need to know the difference between water baptism and Holy Spirit baptism. Water baptism literally means entering and coming out of the water. This water baptism, first, has the meaning of washing away sins. In Acts 22:16, “ And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. Second, water baptism has the meaning of death for sins. In Romans 6:2-4, “ God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of th...

  People who believe in Jesus but do not know about the kingdom of God   Most Christians say they are the people of the kingdom of God, but if they do not know about the kingdom of God, can they be called the people of God? Jesus told his disciples about the kingdom of God. Acts 1:3 『 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: 』 It is said that he preached about the kingdom of God for months. In Genesis 2:2, God finished the work of creating the world on the seventh day. And in Pharaoh 2:7 man was created. “ And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. ” The breath of life means spirit. And “ living spirit ” means “ living creature (soul) ” . It means that God put the spirit into the dust and became a living creature. God is a spirit, and all the...

  Those who believe that there is a way to salvation in all religions   In John 14:6 it says, “ Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. ” Based on these words, there is no way of salvation except through the cross of Jesus Christ. The Christian church uses the word salvation. We must understand the meaning of salvation. Salvation is being delivered from the danger of death. It is God's deliverance of repentant sinners. So, God transforms repentant sinners into righteous people so that they can return to the kingdom of God. The meaning of repentance is important here. The people of the church in this world only think of sins committed in the world. So, church members confess their sins in the world and say they repent to God. However, since they believe that they are inevitably sinning every day, they struggle daily to avoid sinning in the light of the law. When they commit a sin, they immediately confess a...

  It is the Spirit that gives life; the flesh is useless.   http://m.cafe.daum.net/oldnewman135/ri3R?boardType =     John 6:63 “ It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. ” That is, the spirit is dead. That is why Jesus is saying that we must live the spirit. A person's identity is the mind, not the body. In the heart, there are a heart that comes from the flesh and a heart that comes from the spirit. Romans 8:5 says, “ For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. ” Those whose spirit is dead follow the body. So what must we do to follow the Spirit? Romans 8:4 says, “ That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. ” The requirement of the law is what the law says in 8:3, “ For what the law could not do, in that it wa...
