Oh really? Then how do you explain this?
Rev. 3:1-5
1: And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
2: Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die:
for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
3: Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4: Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not
defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
5: He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment;
and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6: He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Had these been washed in his blood? He calls them his Church. Yet he rebukes them
BECAUSE THERE WORKS WERE NOT PERFECT. Does it say somewhere here that his judgment of them was
NOT based on their performance of his will? And YHWH would see the blood and pass on over?
Or is it crystal clear he was judging them on whether their works were perfect before YHWH?
What does he give as consequence if we do not overcome?
Name blotted out of book of life verse 5.
Its dramatic the difference between the words of Yeshua and what men teach nowadays.
