Created In Christ Jesus Unto Good Works

When you post this scripture: Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. and those modern day judaizers say in response, "YEAH, YOU DELIBERATELY LEFT OUT VERSE 10!!!" Ephesians 2:10 KJV For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Once we are "in Christ Jesus". (this ONLY happens when you believe trust the gospel that saves which simply has throughout history always been

Trust in Christ to be declared righteous forever, not yourself,

Then we should walk in the good works we were created in Christ Jesus for. But only if in your mind you are doing those good works in faith who you are now

Declared righteous forever in God's eyes by the faith of CHrist by faith in Christ. Your response should be to ask them if they think verse 10 adds works to the gospel of salvation being by grace through faith ALONE in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus ?? YES or NO ? If they say yes they do not understand what it means to be "in Christ" BECAUSE verse 10 actually shows that sanctification is by grace through faith also, just like salvation.

Ephesians 2:10 KJV For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

All your good works on your own prior to salvation are not pleasing to God, Theophilus, as you know and I have no need to inform you, however

all your works after you are saved are only seen or valuable to God by God if when you were doing them in your mind you gave God credit glory by thinking that is a great chance to show this person the love of Christ.

Works that are useless after salvation are the ones you think matter to God and they don't, AFTER you have been declared righteous in Gods eyes forever by what Jesus did, when in your mind you think you pleased God because you did them , instead of simply believing you did them because God declared you righteous by Christ only and freed your mind of guilt and there is no other way you can please God after salvation except to believe who you are now in Christ.

All God's saved , are children, not slaves.

If the Son sets you free, you are free indeed.

I am son of God, eternally.

You are a son or daughter if you only trust Christ for rigghteousness you have it

eternally.

To God our Father and Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be ALL glory, both now and forevemore !!!

Grace and peace to all !!

God's Gospel Of Love For His Creation

To be saved:  You not ONLY have to believe in who Jesus is and was and always will be, God became man, you ALSO have to believe and trust only in Jesus’ death burial and resurrection for the forgiveness of sins, and God’s free gift of eternal life, and to be declared righteous forever in God's eyes. Believe and trust the simple gospel that saves - 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 & 2 Corinthians 5:1-20. Trust ONLY in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus for your salvation, to be declared righteous by God forever ! Any trust in your own human works and efforts , whether it be moral or religious has zero power to save you.

After you are saved: - Romans 12:2  - To grow in God's grace and learn about your exciting new creature identity and future then renew your mind daily with body of Christ creature  doctrine (Romans through Philemon), including praying through the simple gospel that saves every day (see my personal example below) in your own words.   New creature / BOC doctrine,  is the instruction that Jesus gave the Apostle Paul for the body of Christ creature found in Romans through Philemon.  This is how God forms Christ in the inner mind of body of Christ new creature members. This is body of Christ creature doctrine only.  

Earn rewards in heaven now: -  by applying sound doctrine written to the body of Christ new creature (Romans through Philemon) in your inner man , the Holy Spirit will use the body of Christ creature doctrine to teach you it so Christ be formed in you during the body of Christ new creature dispensation and then you image that love back to others, not taking glory for it before man and or in your own mind !  God gets this glory by you believing that is exactly what you are doing when you love people , imaging Christ !  Because you now understand God's love and forgiveness is forever. Once you trust only in Christ for righteousness you have it and sin can no longer separate you from God. It is that simple !!!. - 1 Corinthians 3:12-15 , Hebrews 11:1-6 

The Simple Gospel That Saves throughout all history:

Do you acknowledge your sin has separated you from God/Jesus ( OT did not know exactly who Messiah was and BOC creature did , Jesus = God, Jesus = fullness of God became man, Jesus, finished work (DBR), and renounce any attempt to fix your sin problem and be declared righteous by God by your own good works, moral or religion, or thinking you are too good to go to hell because of your moral and religious works, and trust only in Jesus ( God became man)  finished work, which is His death burial and resurrection,  for forgiveness of sins ,  eternal life and Jesus righteousness imputed to your account so God declares you righteous forever and sin can never separate you from God again?  yes or no ?

Lastly if you ask why this has not been taught as being this simple by mainstream church I anity =  ALL MANS religions/denominations/churches in buildings…….. when it is right in the Bible….well here is why :

2 Corinthians 4:3-4

And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled [a]to those who are perishing, 4 in whose case the god of this [b]world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that [c]they will not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15

13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.

This is also why the book of Acts is a story of the transition from the Old creature - Israel's program to the New creature the body of Christ.   I believe both Peter and Paul were charged with making sure this transition went smoothly and Peter was not supposed to understand body of Christ creature doctrine all together.  Paul obvi knew Israel creature doctrine and BOC creature doctrine. 

"Creature" is key 

The key to learning your direct instruction in the bible 

is

creature

2 Timothy 2:15

however we can learn things of God's way versus the way of cain In all books of the bible, some in plain view in His word, and many hidden in His word.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 

Hebrews 11:1-6 

11 Now faith is the certainty of things [a]hoped for, a [b]proof of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old [c]gained approval.

3 By faith we understand that the [d]world has been created by the word of God so that what is seen has not been made out of things that are visible. 4 By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was attested to be righteous, God testifying [e]about his gifts, and through [f]faith, though he is dead, he still speaks. 5 By faith Enoch was taken up so that he would not see death; and he was not found because God took him up; for before he was taken up, he was attested to have been pleasing to God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for the one who comes to God must believe that He exists, and that He proves to be One who rewards those who seek Him. 7 By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, [g]in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

To God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be ALL glory both now and forevermore !!! 

Grace and peace !!!
