Dear Friends –
Perhaps as many as 900 of 1000 of those on this GJiGT list have a
dear friend or loved one who has been overtake in the snares of the
Faith in your Faith movement. It is possible that many on this list
may have been ensnared. Lord willing, by tomorrow, the full 17 pages
exposing the problems, and path to freedom, will be available. It is
hoped that you will not take offense; but, that you will get your KJV
Holy Bible and Strong's Concordance, Pray, and by the More Sure Word
and Spirit of Truth, examine to see if these things be so. That is
the wise and more noble way. By all means, if you find the GJiGT has
not rightly divided the word of truth on any of the issues, please do
let us know.
This may be one of the most concise and yet thorough revelations of
the wresting which is done through many mega ministries. The
examination will be of their serious doctrinal errors, with the
Scriptures exposing them. What is really taking place in the shows,
how, and why it is so dangerous, along with the Scripture truth path
to freedom from the snares, is covered. In this, which will be the
last of this series, we will go right to the heart of the main issue.

the CROSS? or HELL?, complete article will soon be found.

For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an
antichrist. Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which
we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. Whosoever
transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not
God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the
Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this
doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
We are to know that those who depart from the biblical teaching
concerning the Person and FINISHED Work of The Lord Jesus Christ,
have departed from the truth, and are designated as "deceivers." This
is such a serious offense to God, that we are warned to avoid these
individuals, because such deceivers have the spirit of antichrist.
The more deceivers and deceits abound, the more watchful the
disciples must be. The way to gain the full reward is, to abide true
to Christ, constant and steadily, enduring to the end. Firm cleaving
to the Word of God, and His truth, unites us to Christ, by His Spirit
of Truth, and thereby to the Father also; for they are one. We are
commanded to disregard such as abide not in the doctrine of Christ.
Yet in obeying this command, we must show kindness and a good spirit
to those who differ from us in lesser matters, but hold firmly the
all-important doctrines of Christ's person, atonement, and holy
salvation.
The word of God in 2 John 7-11 is not simply to be limited to a test
of whether or not one believes in the incarnation of Christ. It
applies to the fullness of the entire Doctrine of Christ. The test
for belief in the incarnation is found in 2 John 7 and also 1 John
4:1, whereas the full Doctrine of Christ test is in view in verses 9-
11.
The Apostles all did earnestly contend with the Synagogue of Satan.
There were first century synagogues that would proclaim that Yeshua
was Messiah, and at the same time also DENY that He was God the Son,
in the flesh, God the Creator, the I AM, incarnate. Whosoever
transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not
God (vs.9). The Doctrine of Christ involves everything concerning
Yeshua THE Messiah, as contained in the Word of God: the Old
Testament prophecies; His incarnation; virgin birth; sinless life;
deity; His Sin-Offering blood atonement on the CROSS; resurrection;
ascension; the Second Coming, and so on.
MOST SPECIFICALLY, AND IMPORTANTLY, THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST CONCERNS
THE PERSON AND WORK OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. THAT HE IS GOD, THE I
AM WHO SPOKE TO MOSES, BOTH CREATOR AND REDEEMER, AND THAT ONLY HIS
SINLESS PERFECT SUBSTITUTION SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS, CAN GIVE ANYONE
THE BLESSED HOPE OF FREEDOM FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW OF SIN AND
DEATH.
It should be understood, from the outset, that the "Jesus Died
Spiritually," or "Jesus Completed Redemption in Hell" supporters do
NOT adhere to the scriptural Doctrine of Christ. Such have grossly
perverted the Doctrine of Christ. They deny the Doctrine of Christ
with regard to His perfect blood atonement. They deny the Doctrine of
Christ with regard to the SINLESSNESS and PERFECT ETERNAL HOLINESS of
the Son of God, during the period from of the cross until His
resurrection.
The seriousness of their departure from the biblical Doctrine of
Christ, is seen in the fact that their Doctrine portrays Jesus as
unregenerate on the cross and in Hell. They profess that He was born
again in Hell, providing redemption from the Pit, and not the Cross.
Thereby, they become enemies of the Cross of Christ.
1 Cor 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish
foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
The Scriptures, however, prove that Jesus Christ was always sinless
and holy, fulfilling the Old Testament type, and that He completed
the work of redemption on the cross. On the cross He declared, "It is
finished," and at death He confessed that He was going to His
heavenly Father, not to Satan in the Pit, saying "Father, into thy
hands I commend my spirit."
The warning is clear. False teachers will arise who craftily
introduce heresies that deny the scriptural view of the Lord. This is
precisely what these false teachers are doing in their denial of
Christ's sinlessness on the cross, and by their perversion of the
blood atonement. Moreover, it is predicted that many will believe
these errors and follow them, just as it is happening today!
Their errors are based upon their contention that Jesus literally
became "sin" with mankind's sinfulness and died spiritually. In
effect, like the bloodless cults, lowering the position of Christ as
God, and elevating man to be as a god. However, the Word of God
clearly affirms that Jesus remained the SAME, God and man, pure and
holy, both on the cross and in His death.
Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible
things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by
tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ,
as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: I Pet 1:18-19
Following the Old Testament type, Jesus did NOT become "sin"; rather,
He was the SIN-OFFERING. The SIN-OFFERING was MOST HOLY to God.
Jesus DID NOT literally become sin as the heretical doctrine teaches.
The Old Testament animal type, which was to die as a substitute for
the sinner, MUST be without spot or blemish. There are FIFTY verses
from Exodus through Second Peter which tell us, without question,
that the SIN-OFFERING MUST be without spot, without blemish. This
MOST ESSENTIAL requirement of the SIN-OFFERING was for the purpose of
teaching Israel, and the Church, the lesson, pointing to the Perfect
Spotless SINLESS Sacrifice of Messiah. The SIN-OFFERINGS ALWAYS
pointed to what the Lamb of God would accomplish on the Cross. The
PERFECT Sacrifice of Messiah, MUST be without spot, without blemish,
SINLESS, and would be MOST HOLY before and after its death.
This truth was ritually depicted in the Old Testament requirement
that the animal substitute must be without spot or blemish; this fact
was actually realized in Jesus, the Lamb of God, who"...offered
himself without spot to God..."
Lev 6:25-29 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law
of the SIN-OFFERING: In the place where the burnt offering is killed
shall the SIN-OFFERING be killed before the LORD: it is MOST HOLY.
The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in the holy place
shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the
congregation. Whatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be HOLY:
and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon any garment,
thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled in the HOLY place. But
the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be broken: and if it be
sodden in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured, and rinsed in
water. All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is MOST
HOLY.
We are clearly told that the sin-offering was MOST HOLY to God both
before and after its death. In fact, even after its death in
substitution for the sinner, it remained MOST HOLY. Only the anointed
priest could touch it, and eat it. The priest could not touch or eat
anything unclean. The SIN-OFFERING was to be eaten in the Holy Place
of the Tabernacle. Also, anything or anyone that touched the sin-
offering after it had been sacrificed, also became HOLY!
This fact alone, is evidence of the sacredness of the sin-offering in
God's sight, for even after its death it remained most holy to Him.
The heretical teaching attempts to make Jesus unholy, and
unregenerate. It is heretically FALSE to teach that Jesus became sin,
with man's sinfulness, and had to be born again. He was a Sin-
offering, not sin, and was, therefore, holy on the cross and after
His death in fulfillment of the Old Testament type. There is NO
teaching in the entire Holy Bible that the SIN-OFFERING was anything
other than holy unto God. The Old Testament animal sacrifices pointed
to the MOST HOLY Lamb of God, Messiah, who never was, nor could be
anything other than PERFECT, and HOLY. The Word of God states clearly
that the sin-offering, a type of The Lamb of God, was most holy to
God in its death.
The doctrine that Jesus became sin, rather than the truth, that He
was the PERFECT, once for all SIN-OFFERING, is heresy. The heresy is
exactly opposite what the Holy Bible teaches. Messiah, the Lamb of
God, DID NOT became sin, and DID NOT become unholy. Many may say,
then explain 2 Cor 5:21? And that we MUST and will explain and PROVE.
The SIN-OFFERING was FINISHED at the CROSS, and that Yeshua NEVER did
sin, NEVER was made to be sin, but was the Once For All SIN-OFFERING,
always HOLY and without spot or blemish. Lord willing, that will be
proved certainly, clearly, decidedly, definitely, indisputably,
plainly, positively, undeniably, unequivocally, and unquestionably.
It is a sad sign of the times how few understand the Old Testament or
Hebrew term for "sin" AND "sin-offering" is the SAME Word chatta'ah
H2403. We find the word 294 times, of which 118 times it means, SIN-
OFFERING, and 176 times, SIN. It is the SAME word. The false teachers
of the Cross, plus 3 days of Hell heresy, are oblivious of the fact
that these two English terms are one and the same term in the Hebrew
language! Since all writers of scripture were Hebrews except Luke,
who was a proselyte Jew, the same word, with the same understanding
how it applied to both sin and the sin-offering, was the SAME in
Greek as well.
The term translated as "sin-offering" and "sin" is one and the same
in Hebrew. It was the context in which the term was used, which
expressed whether one was speaking about the sin-offering or of sin.
Everyone should understand that things taken out of context often
become pretexts for false doctrine. If the context concerned the
subject of sacrifices, then the "sin-offering" was understood to be
meant by the Hebrew term chatta'ah. If sin itself was under
discussion, then the same term, chatta'ah could be used; but, then
with the obvious meaning of "sin," not the sin-offering. Messiah, the
Lamb of God, was the spotless perfect SIN-OFFERING. Messiah never
sinned, nor was He ever Sin. Jesus Christ the SAME, yesterday, today,
and forever, The I AM, perfect, spotless, and without blemish, the
once for ALL SIN-OFFERING. That is the REAL Messiah.
2 Cor 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin;
that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Messiah is the
SIN-OFFERING. Messiah is NOT sin.
The term chatta'ah is used for sin itself on several occasions;
however, chatta'ah is also used over 100 times for the sin-offering.
As an Israelite, the Apostle Paul clearly, and without any doubt, had
the sin-offering in view in 2 Corinthians 5:21. The plain simple fact
is that the term for sin and the sin-offering is identical in Hebrew
AND Greek. The Apostle simply follows the customary practice of the
Jewish translators when rendering Hebrew into Greek.
All ancient Jewish translators into Greek, even the corrupt Jewish
Septuagint translators, out of Alexandria, used the Greek term
for "sin," hamartia, to translate the Hebrew term for the sin-
offering. Yes, the same Greek word hamartia is even used in the
Septuagint, for SIN-OFFERING.
In the Greek tanslations of the following verses, and we have access
to many Greek translations, ALL of them use the SAME Greek word
hamartia in these verses:
Lev 5:11 But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young
pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth
part of an ephah of fine flour for a SIN-OFFERING (hamartia); he
shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense
thereon: for it is a SIN-OFFERING. (hamartia)
Lev 6:25 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law of
the SIN-OFFERING (hamartia): In the place where the burnt offering is
killed shall the SIN-OFFERING (hamartia) be killed before the LORD:
it is MOST HOLY.
2 Cor 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin (hamartia) for us, who knew
no sin (hamartia); that we might be made the righteousness of God in
him.
No Jewish believer in Messiah, unlike the heretics who teach Jesus
became sin and slugged it out with the devil in hell, would have
confused "sin" with the "sin-offering" in 2 Cor 5:21. Even though
they are expressed by the same term in Hebrew, AND Greek, there
should be no cause, or reason, or place given to such perverse
doctrine and wresting of the Scriptures. This is also true with
regard to the terms trespass and trespass-offering;
The term "curse" (Gal. 3:10-13) is also to be understood in this
sense. Death is the curse of the Law of sin and death. (Deu 28 & Eze
18). Indeed Messiah was made a "curse" in the sense that He suffered
the curse of the Law (death) on our behalf. However, He was not
cursed as sin, as the heretics blaspheme. Yes, it is BLASPHEMY this
teaching of Christian occult followers of metaphysicist E W Kenyon.
And yes, in the article going up on the GJiGT web site, the names
will be named, of the prominent leaders in this heretical teaching.
We do mourn at how many saints are becoming their victims and getting
filled with religious spirit tickling demons, which they sadly
believe is the Holy Spirit.
In addition to the Septuagint translators using the Greek term
for "sin" to translate the Hebrew term for "sin-offering," this usage
is also found in the New Testament in Hebrews. This is evident from
Heb 10:6 where we read: "In burnt offerings and sacrifices for
sin..." Here again only the Greek term (hamartia) for "sin" occurs in
the Greek New Testament, but it is used in the sense of "sin-
offering." The translators of the English version were aware of the
fact, inasmuch as they translate the term "sin" as meaning "sin-
offering." This is evident in that they supply, in Italics, the
word "sacrifices," signifying that the term "sin" (hamartia) is being
used in Heb 10:6 to express the sacrifice for sin (hamartia) (sin-
offering) and not the actual sin itself.
This is in harmony both with the context in which burnt-offerings are
mentioned, and with common Hebrew. The Apostle Paul here, as he does
clearly, definitely, and certainly, in 2 Corinthians 5:21, use the
term "sin" (hamartia) in the sense of the "sin-offering."
It is the same as the Apostle Paul states in I Corinthians 1:30 that
Christ was made, not sin, but "righteousness" unto us in a passage
where he deals with the cross.
1 Cor 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish
foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
Since Paul was not double minded, he obviously would not contradict
himself. Therefore 2 Corinthians 5;21 should be rightly divided and
understood according to Hebrew AND Greek usage as "sin-offering." The
same Greek word (hamartia) is used for sin or SIN-OFFERING. For he
hath made him a sin-offering (hamartia) for us, who knew no sin
(hamartia); that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
The sin-offering did not typify something sinful at death to the
Jews, as the heretical ministers depict Christ. Rather Christ was
typified by the SIN-OFFERING being without spot or blemsih, most
holy, and perfect, the once for all sinless sacrifice for sin. This
is precisely the New Testament view concerning the death of Jesus
Christ Who "...offered himself without spot to God..."
Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the
eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your
conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
1 Pet 1:18-19 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with
corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation
received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood
of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
The contradiction between God's Word and man's heretical theories,
even if the teacher tells us it is a high revelation from God, should
be evident to all. Yes, it should be evident even in the face of
prosperity, and supposed confirming signs, wonders, and feel good
goose bumps. Regardless of the signs which make up a wonderful show,
we should still see what is so perverse and wrong with some of their
performances, by the FALSE doctrine. There is an obvious departure
from the Doctrine of Christ. It is not just the blasphemous heresies.
Receiving such blasphemous heresy gives much ground to demon spirits.
One should also see why we MUST question regarding the source of the
empowerment of the prosperity, signs, and wonders. Who is REALLY
being glorified? Who is really doing the empowering? We should see
the strong possibility of the operation of Jannes and Jambres in the
signs and wonders, in the performances of some of these ministers.
Mark 8:36-37 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the
whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in
exchange for his soul?
Shalom & Simcha,
Jim Searcy
