Perverting the Gospel

all right welcome back and Robert breaker and this week's sermon I believe is very important it's been something that a lot of people have been asking me through emails to speak on and something that I've been dealing with a lot lately and matter of fact I've dealt with this a lot in my entire ministry there are many people in the world today that pervert the gospel of salvation so what I want to do today is I want to talk about the subject of perverting the gospel last week I preached on misunderstanding the gospel and I showed how there are people out there that don't understand the gospel of salvation and because of that they're left lost well today what I want to do is talk about people that claim to be preachers of the gospel they claim to be ministers of the gospel but yet are they even preaching the gospel when you look at what they preach you say well that's not the gospel you're trying to twist the scriptures you're 22 pervert it you're trying to get someone to something other than what the Bible says you're supposed to trust or believe in this is rampant what I'm going to talk about today this teaching throughout all Christianity why is that because the Bible teaches were in the last day the last days is a time of apostasy or a falling away from the truth so what I'm going to do today is I'm going to show you what the gospel is and then I'm going to show you how it's been perverted in the world today by so many people and how people today are preaching tradition rather than salvation and so they're perverting the truth perverting the gospel let's begin in 2nd Peter chapter 3 verses 14 through 18 and again many people an email have been emailing and saying brother Baker I want you to preach this message because there's some people that are confused and they're confusing others about salvation and we want you to make this clear so there will be no confusion so that's what I'm doing today it's for those people that I'm trying to make clear the gospel the true gospel of salvation and how it's been perverted and it's continually being perverted oftentimes by those who claim to be Bible believers and yet they're not even preaching the full of salvation they're perverting it now let's go to second Peter chapter 3 and in second Peter chapter 3 I'm going to read verses 14 through 18 here's a good place to start second Peter 3:14 wherefore beloved seeing that you look for such things be diligent that you may be found of him in peace without spot and blameless so we should be diligent if we're a minister of the gospel we should be diligent and making sure we are actually preaching the gospel he says in verse 15 an account that the long-suffering of our Lord is salvation salvation is through God's long-suffering what does that mean Jesus died for our sins in our place what grace what love what charity what long-suffering the long-suffering of our Lord is salvation even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him have written unto you notice what he says the Apostle Peter says remember Paul is the one to go to when you want salvation because God gave some wisdom to Paul on what salvation is Oh so what was it what was the gospel that God gave to Paul of salvation that saves us today modern Christianity the majority of them stay away from the Apostle Paul you go to many churches today all they do is they preach Matthew Mark Luke and John and you say why aren't you over here preaching the epistles of Paul they go oh we don't we don't like Paul and yet even Peter says when you want to know about salvation - got to go - is this guy named Paul because God revealed a lot unto him about salvation that's what we're reading here it says here it says our beloved brother Paul verse 15 also according to the wisdom given unto him has written unto you all right verse 16 as also in all his epistles speaking in them of these things what things does he talk about wisdom and salvation in which are some things hard to be understood what would that be well there were seven mysteries revealed on the pole and some of those mystery Peter never really wrapped his head around some of those Peter couldn't really get a hold up but he says some things that he says are hard to be understood and he continues at verse 15 which they that are unlearned and unstable rest as they do also the other scriptures unto their own destruction so there are some people that when it comes to salvation they rest it to their own destruction and I'll get back to that word here in a minute but let me ruin read verse 17 ye therefore beloved seeing you know these things before beware lest ye also being led away with the error of the wicked fall from your own steadfastness so the Apostle Peter here and let me continue verse 18 the last verse but grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to him be glory both now and forever amen so the last thing that Peter ever said this is the last book and last epistle he says grow in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ our Savior now notice what he says so in verse 17 he says there are some people that rest the scriptures to their own destruction look at the Bible say about this well it's perverting it's changing the scriptures and we looked at some verses and Paul in a minute but I looked up the word rest in the 1928 dictionary you know what I found the word rest means to twist to take by force by violence to distort to twist from its natural meaning Distortion violet pulling and twisting and the notice verse says perversion per version so it's twisting the scriptures rest means to twist the scriptures to what it's to your own destruction so there are people out there that claim to be ministers and some that aren't even ministers they're just Christians and they read the Bible but they get false doctrine because when they come to the Bible and they come to salvation they pervert the gospel they preach another gospel rather than the true gospel of salvation let's go to Galatians chapter one what should we do with such people well Bible says we're both away from someone is not preaching what the Bible teaches Galatians chapter 1 verse 6 the Apostle Paul says I marvel that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel verse 7 which is not another but there be some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ there are some people out there that want to pervert the gospel and rather than give you the gospel of salvation they want to twist it and they're literally resting to their own destruction the true gospel of Christ and they're giving you a false gospel and he continues there and he says they pervert the gospel Christ though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel new than that which you have preached unto you let him be accursed so they are going to their own destruction they are accursed and the Apostle Peter warns us of people that twist the scriptures and twist the gospel and pervert the gospel and the Apostle Paul warns us as well so with that stating what is the gospel what the gospel is 1st Corinthians chapter 15 verse 1 through 4 I try to work this into every sermon because this is the gospel of salvation this is the true gospel I am NOT resting this today I am presenting this I am reading what the Bible says is the gospel of salvation 1st Corinthians 15 verses 1 through 4 moreover brethren I declare unto you the gospel so here the Apostle Paul says I'm declaring them to the gospel which I preached unto you which also you have received also you have to receive that you have to take the gospel we have to believe in the gospel we have to receive this gospel by faith because that's what the Bible teaches that salvation is by believing and it says here but which I preached unto you which also you have received and wherein you stand okay so you stand on this I stand on the gospel because I'm standing on it saying I shall not move this is my salvation I'm saved through the gospel first here by which also you're saved okay so salvation comes through the gospel how if you keep an what I preach this you unless you have believed in me okay so it's saying that believing the gospel is what saves you unless you believed in what in vain what is vain self something you do so you're trusting in something that you've done vanity rather than what Jesus did so the gospel is all what Jesus did and when you believe then you perceive and you stand in the gospel verse three probably delivered unto you first of all that which I received now notice the next word very next word says how how that Christ died for our sins how did Jesus die you cannot read the Bible without finding how Jesus died how Jesus died was in a bloody manner the how is that he died by shedding his blood last week sermon I preached about that the blood atonement of Christ but the gospel here is that how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures that he was buried and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures twice it says according to the scripture so the gospel is the death the burial and the resurrection of Jesus Christ according to the scriptures but it's not just that how did it happen how was it it was how that took place the Apostle Paul is saying that the doctrine of gospel truth of salvation is the most important word how it took place it was all about the blood atonement of Christ many today leave out the blood when they preach the gospel what old minister said you can't preach the gospel without preaching the blood and you can't preach the blood without preaching the gospel why because through the entire gospel we see clearly the blood of Christ Jesus died how he shed his blood he was buried he went into the very ground where his blood poured into he rose again the book of Hebrews tells us Jesus when he rose again he took his blood up to the mercy seat in heaven and put it before God so the blood soaks and saturates the gospel and when you preach the gospel you're supposed to be preaching the blood atonement of Christ because the blood is what saves and we're saved by believing in the blood of Christ so let me show you this first Corinthian excuse me Ephesians 1:13 Ephesians 1:13 I've heard many too ministers throughout my time as the minister I've been preaching out since I was 18 years old on 42 years I've been in the ministry quite a while I began preaching on a street corner at 18 years old I don't know how long I've been on internet here 2007 2006 was my first video I don't remember but before that I was a minister in Honduras a missionary and I've been working as an evangelist as well and preaching and getting the gospel to the lost and dying world focusing in on what the gospel is and the gospel is all about what Jesus did when I preach the gospel I point to Jesus and I say look at him the gospel is all what Jesus did for you it's not what you do here's the problem there are people out there who want to pervert the gospel change the gospel into no don't look at what Jesus did and trust in what Jesus did no it's what you do that is a heretic that is a liar that is a deceiver that is someone that's headed to destruction who the Bible says is accursed because they have a perverse teaching and they preach a false gospel they twist or they wrest the gospel to their own destruction and rather than telling you to trust in what Jesus did and rest in the finished work of Christ by faith believing they tell you no do this other thing instead many today preach this false gospel many today say just ask God to save you and they say if you'll just ask God to save you they'll say that's their gospel that's what the Bible calls another gospel I'm going to get into that a little later in the sermon and show you does the Bible tell us to ask God to save you or does the Bible say to trust God to save you there is a difference between asking and trusting and we're going to look at that in this sermon because that is the perversion of the Scriptures let me just say that briefly as quickly as possible so I can get on with this message but if someone tells you to just ask God to save you and they've never told you the gospel which is trust the blood atonement of Christ what are they doing there say no it's not trusting in the blood it's what you do if you ask God to save you so it's what you do that saves you is the perverted twisted gospel not it's trusting what Jesus did to say to you do you see how that's two completely different Gospels and I'm going to go into that a lot of detail in this sermon I want you to see that with your own eyes Ephesians 1:13 says in whom you also ask God to save you so that he did is that what the verse says no it says whom he also trusted after that ye heard the word of truth the gospel of your salvation whom also after that you believed you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise now the Bible says that salvation is by believing the gospel so we're saved by believing now there are people today that say we don't believe that our gospel isn't back they say we don't believe you're saved by believing we call that easy believe in them and we thank you you're wrong well then why did the Bible say you believe there are so many verses in the Bible that say believe the gospel salvation is by believing are you going to just cut those out of your Bible what agency your Bible I must be missing a lot of pages must have a lot of verses cut out the Bible says believe but the Bible defines belief as trusting so trusting is how you're saved according to the Bible you believe the gospel which means you trust the gospel that salvation and it cannot be denied if someone changes that teaching then they've got another gospel now are there any verses in the Bible that tell you to ask God to save you not one there is no verse in the entire Bible that tells you we'll just ask God to save you now there are people that will say no there are verses I'm going to show you some verses at the end of this sermon that they try to use and I'm going to show you how they twist them out of context to try to preach their own gospel a gospel of asking God to save you rather than trusting God to save you and yet there is a difference between asking and trusting I can ask you right now for a million dollars hi would you give me a million dollars please are you going to give it to me just because I asked doesn't mean I'm going to receive it you can ask for something but that doesn't mean you're going to get but God who cannot lie said if you will trust my blood you will trust the gospel I will give you eternal life and God set this whole thing up that salvation is by believing not by asking a lot of people today and I've met them I used to be one of them I've known other people the same they don't get the gospel I said 18 years in different churches I've never heard a gospel one time not until I was 18 years old but I heard many times many people preaching what you want to get saved if that's going to save you so I would every night before bed say oh god please save me what was I missing the belief or the trust in the gospel in the first day I heard the gospel I believed it and that's when I got saying so you don't get saved when you ask you get saved when you believe there are so many verses that prove that salvation is by believing Ephesians giving acts 16:30 a guy says what must I do to be sinning Paul says believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved believe let's go to 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 here's the problem many today have this gospel of asking instead of the gospel of trusting in the blood atonement so it all boils down to whether or not you're trusting in your asking or if you're trusting in the atonement of Christ many people in this world today claim to be Christians and you ask them why am I say they say could I ask God to save me is that what the Bible teaches does the Bible tell you to ask God to save you and matter of fact it is not the Bible says that God asks you to believe and trust in His atonement for your sins you see the blood of Christ was the penalty for your sins and the penalty has been paid and God wants you to trust in the transaction and that's how you're saying that's what the Bible teaches is salvation if any man teaches otherwise what is he doing he's twisting the scriptures and trying to force it into a teaching that it does not teach nowhere in the scriptures doesn't say ask God to save you 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 but over and over and over again if you simply read the New Testament read by epistle it's all believe the gospel trusted off the bleed and you believe we believe the gospel we received it we believe believe believe believe believe over and over again believe the gospel now Paul says in 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 he says this 2nd Corinthians 4:2 but have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty not walking in craftiness nor handling the Word of God deceitfully like some people do they twist the scriptures to their own destruction that pervert the gospel they handle the Word of God deceitfully he says but by manifest of the truths manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God that's what I do today I commend myself to your conscious conscience I'm going to show you what the Bible says and I'm going to show you how men twist what the Bible says and I'm going to say now it's on you which one's right if you say well man's right then you're denying the gospel if you say the Gospels right then you're denying me and that's the thing we need to look at many go let God be true and every man a liar I'm not going to follow man's teaching everybody Falls the truth so we look at the gospel the Gospels verse 20 is 15 1 through 4 the gospel is the blood atonement of Christ what Jesus did for us now verse 3 says but if our gospel be hid it is hid to them that are lost if a person is trusting the gospel then they're safe if they're not trusting the gospel they're trusting something else they've done then they're lost because unless you trust the gospel you're not even saying now look at this verse 4 and doing the god of this world who is that the devil Satan has blinded the minds of them which believe not lest the light let the light of the glorious gospel of Christ who is the image of God should shine unto them verse 5 for we preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord and you're saying ourselves your servants for Jesus sake the Apostle Paul says we don't preach ourselves we don't preach that salvation is what we do we don't go to anyone and tell anyone you do this and you do that and you speak this and you say that you repeat this prayer and you do this we don't make salvation anything that you do the Apostle Paul says when I preach I tell people it's all about Christ it's all about the gospel it's all about trusting in what Jesus Christ is resting in the finished work by faith now last week in our sermon I preached on misunderstanding salvation I went into this a little bit and explained a little bit how people misunderstand about salvation and how there are many people that misunderstand what the salvation is and so they think the salvation is by something they do so they look back at a time when they did something and they say well I'm sick because I did this but salvation is not anything we do it's trusting on what Jesus did for us it's believing I like to turn it's resting in the finished work of Christ or about relying upon Christ you by faith you accept you believe the gospel and you receive salvation as a free gift it's all about believing now people say well that's wrong because you just believe with your mind I'm not talking about believing with your mind you trust with all that you are the Bible talks about believing from the heart it's trusting it's accepting it's receiving by faith Christ it's saying look I know that I'm a sinner and nothing I can do will get me to heaven so I'd trust solely I trust completely upon Christ to take me there I trust the very thing that saves I trust the blood now all throughout the Bible is the doctrine of blood atonement all throughout the Bible you cannot help but see that God has always dealt with man based upon whether or not the man came to God through a blood atonement otherwise God would not accept the me it doesn't take much to to go through the Old Testament and read before you come to Leviticus chapter 17 and verse 11 Leviticus 17:11 says for the but the flesh is in the blood and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls for it is the blood that maketh atonement for your souls so blood makes an atonement for your souls what does that mean it means that blood forgives the sins of your soul and that's for your soul so all throughout the Bible men came to God and they saw well the only way God will accept me is through a blood atonement so they bring a sacrifice in that Old Testament under the law I mean I believe it's Leviticus Corp I'm not mistaken when a man came to God he had to bring his sacrifice the Bible says he had to put his hand on that sacrifice signifying this is for me in my place and he had to take that knife and cut the throat and the priest caught the blood in the man knew okay there's the blood that's what forgives and that man was looking at that blood saying okay and as soon as that blood was offered up by the priest he said okay I have atonement I have a tone that I now say atonement has been made that salvation throughout the Old Testament what about the New Testament why would someone think it's any different in the New Testament salvation is through blood so that's why we talk about faith in the blood go to Romans chapter 3 and verse 25 salvation in the New Testament is through the blood only this time it's not a blood of an animal Jesus Christ in His infinite mercy came down from heaven shed his blood God's blood in our place for our sins and now he said now trust the blood trust the blood to be saved there are many people have anything to be Christians and they pervert the gospel they twist it they pervert it and they tell you to do anything but rest in the blood of Christ anything but trust and believe in the blood atonement of Christ If any man claims to be a minister he's telling you to do anything other than trust the blood of Jesus that man is a heretic that man is a liar that is the person that has perverted the gospel in trying to get you to do something rather than trust in what Jesus did for you so he wants you to do something and if you're trusting anything that you do or you have done you are eternally lost because salvation is not what you do salvation is by believing in what Jesus did you know the only thing that you can do this not work is belief and God says you're not saved by works you saved my faith all God wants is for your faith to be in what he did for you so Romans 3:25 says clearly whom God is set forth to be a propitiation watch these words through faith in his blood so the true gospel of salvation is believing or trusting in the blood of Jesus Christ in the blood atonement of Christ that's when you're saved or not so my question to you is are you saved and my next question is when did you trust the blood atonement of Christ because that's when you got saved because the blood atonement is the gospel gospel the blood summit so when you trust the blood that's when you got saved I got saved you'll actually 9 1992 that's when I trusted the blood atonement of Christ clearly in the book of Romans chapter 5 verse 11 it says and not only so but we also join God through our Lord Jesus Christ by whom we have now received received the atonement there is something that God asks you to do it's not a work it's simply trust simply believe and when you believe the Bible says you receive the atonement so this is how you receive salvation you receive the atonement by faith that summons you God made salvation so simple that it's simply believing that's what the Bible teaches how someone can deny that and claim to be a Bible believer makes me wonder if they've ever read the Bible I went into my search engine just a little while ago on the Bible in the computer and I looked up believes and how many times it shows up in the Bible believe salvation is by faith believing so go to Acts chapter 13 now there are people out there to try to say no no you can get saved if you just ask God to save you what does that leave out if you come to God and you ask God for salvation and you've left out the blood atonement of Christ then you're leaving out the thing that saves and so you're diverting a person from going to the cross and believing in the blood can be saved by telling them don't look at that no no no no not that not that no just say Oh God saves me but God can't save you until your faith is in his blood so are they getting people saved not in your life they're freaking it perverted gospel Acts chapter 13 except the 13 verse 38 be it known unto you therefore men and brethren that through this man Jesus it's preached unto you for the forgiveness of sins and by him all that just ask God for salvation will be saved is that what the verse says no verse 39 says and by him all that believe believe you mean to say by believing all that believe are justified from all things which from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses so through Jesus Christ is preached and forgiveness of sins and by believing then you receive the forgiveness of sin and you're justified are you are you serious does the Bible really teach that you're saved by belief salvation by faith or by believing yes that's what the Bible teaches belief in what faith in what faith in the blood that's what saves us it's faith in the blood so when have you trusting the blood atonement if you're preaching any other doctrine for salvation then faith in the blood of Christ you are a heretic you are a liar you are deceiver and you are diverting from the blood of Christ and faith alone in it for salvation and you're damning souls to hell because you don't follow the Scriptures the Apostle Paul was under the law also Paul was very very very smart man probably was smartest men in the whole Bible and he pops up all new the back the Old Testament backwards and forwards he knew that Jesus Christ was the blood atonement and all throughout Paul's writings when he's talking about believe in Jesus and trusting Jesus he's talking about believing that blood atonement because the blood atonement the Old Testament was the way to have forgiveness of sins and Paul was preaching in the New Testament you trust the blood the blood atonement of Christ that's how you get the forgiveness of sins it's by faith alone it's by trusting now last time last week's message I said this and I'll briefly say it again we're saved by three things we're saved by grace or saved by faith we are saved by blood Romans 3:24 says we're saved by grace we're justified by grace Romans 3:28 and how so Romans 5:1 says we're justified by faith and then Romans 3:25 says we're justified by blood or excuse me 5:05 9 Romans 5:9 says we're justified by his blood so you put all that together what does that mean it means that a man is saved by God's grace through our faith through believing in what in the blood of Jesus Christ that's how you're justified so the biblical doctrine of salvation is by trusting in the blood atonement of Christ it's believing in the blood that's when you get saved now how anyone can preach anything other than that is sick it's disgusting it shows they have no understanding of the Bible out because you can't read the Bible without seeing the doctrine of blood atonement from the very beginning Adam and Eve and then coming and building an altar like Abraham and the Bible says he built an altar a blood sacrifice and then he called on God they call upon the Lord through a blood sacrifice because they knew without the shedding of blood there's no remission of sins God doesn't want to listen to a sinner you got to bring something that will bring forgiveness of that sin so that God can commune with you God is the holy God he doesn't want to deal with the sinner he needs that sinner clean so that he can he can commune with them how do you get your sins washed away how do they become clean through the blood of Jesus Christ we live in a day and age to coin a phrase that my old pastor made up in which many preach a bloodless gospel they never mentioned the blood atonement of Christ they never points you to the blood on the cross they never tell you trust the blood to be safe and yet that's what the Bible teaches is the gospel and the way to be safe so mom are these people are they of God it makes you wonder what does the Bible say about leaving out the blood let's go to Hebrews chapter 10 and verse 29 Hebrews chapter 10 verse 29 says of how much more sorer punishment suppose ye shall be thought worthy who hath trodden underfoot the Son of God and hath counted the blood of the Covenant wherewith he was sanctified an unholy thing and have done despite unto the spirit of grace the Bible says here hey if somebody puts the blood on it doesn't it steam to blood and forget the blood and tries to preach another gospel and leaves out the blood how much sure punishment will they have for counting the blood of the Covenant and unholy thing verse 30 says when we know him that have said vengeance belongeth unto me I will recompense saith the Lord verse 31 says it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God you imagine getting to heaven one day and you were supposedly and minister of the gospel and Jesus Christ looks at you and goes why didn't you tell him to trust the blood that's what I told Paul that's what salvation was that was the gospel it was all about faith in the blood why did you preach that low I'm sorry Jesus no no they're people that died with that pal and you perverted the gospel with a false gospel why'd you do that once your hate to be in your shoes I want to preach the gospel I want to preach it correctly and that's what I do I preach the blood atonement for salvation because that's salvation go to Acts chapter 20 I preached this message one time to the church I don't think I've ever preached it in YouTube but I preached the message one time entitled the only thing that ever scared Paul Paul didn't have much fear he trusted the Lord he was afraid of much of anything he went out he preached this Gospel message of blood atonement everywhere he went he said come what may this is the gospel this is what I'm going to preach but there was one thing that the Apostle Paul was scared of Acts chapter 20 and verse 28 actually was starting verse 27 he's talking here to the church and he says verse 27 for I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God when you look at all the counsel of God you can't help but see salvation has always been by blood atonement blood forgives and Paul says just like those sacrifices in the Old Testament the blood is what made you atonement is Christ's blood that gives you a total he says you're her friend take heed therefore unto yourselves to all the flock over which the Holy Ghost have made you overseers to feed the Church of God which he had purchased with his one with his own blood the purchase price of redemption was the blood of Christ the transaction had been made Jesus shed his blood to forgive your sins now the question is have you applied that to you you see it's the free gift the blood but you have to trust your faith must be in the blood to receive the forgiveness no sins and he continues here and he says now look at verse 29 he says for I know this that after my departing shall Grievous Grievous wolves enter in among you not sparing the flock also of your own selves shall men arise speaking perverse things what are they doing they're perverting what Paul taught he said I am scared to death that after I leave there's going to be evil people wolves who come in and pervert the gospel of Jesus Christ he said they will arise and try to draw them in a way to themselves disciples after them and they will be speaking perverse things verse 31 therefore watch and remember that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears the Apostle Paul said then I cried I literally got down on my knees and cried knowing that there would be people that would come in and try to pervert the gospel and lead you astray and divert you from the very purchase price of salvation to get you away from the blood of Christ now how are we safe today we're saved by the blood I was going to take you through a list of different verses here on salvation being by faith I don't have time if you get a chance go to Romans 1 verses 15 through 16 go to Romans 2 6 in Romans 10:15 Romans 15:16 Romans 1519 Romans 16:25 over and over and over and over Paul says look it's all about this gospel it's all about the blood because the gospel is the blood of Christ don't forget the blood don't leave out the blood atonement of Christ please don't forget the blood Paul said look he says I want so bad this message to be preached it hurts me to think that there will be people that come and they will be perverse and they will speak perverse things and they'll say something other than trust of blood and try to draw disciples away after them and in 1st Corinthians 9 and verse 16 Paul says for though I preach the gospel I have nothing to glory of for necessity is laid upon me Gamewell unto me if I preach not the gospel Paul says woe unto me he said it's just the most important thing in the entire world is the blood atonement of Christ and telling people to put their faith in the blood atonement of Christ to be saved and he says woe unto me if I don't preach that go to Galatians chapter 2 in Galatians chapter 2 the Apostle Paul rebukes someone for not preaching the gospel and not preaching the blood atonement of Christ Galatians chapter 2 verse 11 but when Peter was come to Antioch I withstood him to the face face because he was to be blamed the Apostle Paul says I went up to Peter and I stood right his face listen you're to be blamed you're wrong what was it that he did wrong look at verse 12 for before that certain came from James he did eat with the Gentiles but when they were come he withdrew and separated himself fearing them which was there of the circumcision the other Jews disassembled likewise with him in as much that Barnabas also was carried away with their disseminate in this simulation now look at what Paul says in verse 14 and when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel I said unto Peter before them and he went on he started telling Peter look I was spitting in the face Peter because you were not walking according to the gospel you were not preaching the salvation in the faith in the blood of Christ you are not in the gospel saying what the gospel says a person supposed to say look at verse 16 Paul makes it very clear knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by the faith of Jesus Christ even we have believed in Jesus Christ that we might be justified by the faith of Christ not by the works of the law or by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified / / / / again the Apostle Paul says you're saved by faith you're saved by believing it's not works it's not the law it's not what you do works don't save you it's not what you do it's not what you say it's not what the law it's not anything that you do that gets you saved it's when you realize that Jesus paid it all all to him I owe sin had left a crimson stain but Jesus made it white as snow how by faith there's no hymn that says I put my faith in being less than Jesus blood and righteousness I mean there's so much gospel in a handbook you could almost get saved going to those old hymns because time and again the hymns talk about believing and faith in the blood atonement of Christ it's the blood and it's believing or trusting in the blood that saves us that is the gospel message my friend now there are people that seek to pervert that message I personally have been attacked or so I'm told by certain people in certain places that someone even on the internet they say are saying that Robert breaker is a heretic because he preaches that salvation is by believing the gospel and I said well tell me more what do they say they say well they they say you're wrong they say you're not saved by believing to God I don't say well they're wrong the Bible says you believe the gospel you're saying and they say well they're their gospel is you ask God to save you and they preach against literally they literally say it's not believing the gospel to save you have to ask God to save and I'm thinking do they even read the same Bible that I do the Bible tells us Paul tells us that you're saved by trusting the blood atonement of Christ Peter even says hey River Paul yeah you remember that guy yeah what he says goes don't choice the scriptures to your own destruction follow what Paul says what did Paul say trust the blood trust the blood atonement of Christ but there are people out there and I've heard this all over that today go and preach another plan of salvation and they'll go out to a person that's lost and they'll tell a lost person hey you want to get saved well here's what you need to do you need to get out of your knees and just say Oh God save and I look at that I go why didn't they give the gospel you didn't give the person the gospel you didn't tell the person what Jesus did for them you didn't talk to them about the blood atonement you didn't give them anything about the death burial and resurrection of Christ you did burden them from the thing that saves the thing we're supposed to stand in that they were supposed to receive the thing we're supposed to Trump to be safe and you've gone like this don't look don't look just go over there or do this little other thing as God to save you so you twisted the gospel from trusting the atonement to doing something yourself and begging or asking God to save you Wow so you twisted the gospel and you don't even realize it let's look at that and see how that works out we're looking at the Bible does the Bible give any verse whatsoever where God in heaven says down to men on earth this is man if you want to be saved just come to me without blood and just say Oh God save me and ask me to save you and I'll say not one verse it's always in the entire Bible understood by all the people that live that you cannot come to God without a blood sacrifice there must be a blood in there there must be a sacrifice so they always came to God through the blood no one came to God except one guy old cane cane built a rock altar and it came to God and he offered up his works and it's fruits and he said Oh God won't you forgive me now here it is and the Bible says his sacrifice was rejected now I guess God could have done this I guess could have gone up in heaven and instead of coming down to the earth and dying after living 33 years as a sinless man I guess Jesus could have said you know what I'm not going to shed my blood I'm going to stay up in heaven and I'm going to start a new dispensation and I'm going to say hey come over here you're going to be my prophet and I want you to write a book and just go around tell everybody just ask God to save you God could have done that but he didn't he did not do that rather Jesus Christ the Bible says he was the lamb slain before the foundation of the world before out of a need were even created jesus knew they were going to sit and he said you know what because I love them I'm going to be their blood atonement so Jesus in his mind it's always been it's by blood that a person saved and they need to trust the blood never entered in his mind that salvation is by asking God to forgive I'm saying you know what you're doing when you ask God to save you you're literally saying god I don't care what you did on the cross I don't accept that I want you to die all over again when you ask God to save you that's what you're doing you're literally saying God would you die for my sins again because you wouldn't ask God to forgive your sins if you trusted the gospel be new be forgiven why would you ask him to do something that he's already done it doesn't make sense to go around and tell people to ask God to save you now it destroyed doctrine to tell a person to ask God to save it that's not what station here's an old up letter by my old pastor dr. Peter Ezra read this to you a man can ask Jesus Christ to save him and then months later a years later the Lord make a shin and bring the man to the point of salvation because he asked for the book says the sever shal complement aim Lord shall be saved he says I have made some remark about fully understanding the blood atonement or understanding the curse in this sense the graduates made have got certainly without shedding a blood there's no remission of sins he says I have asked people I've met scores of people he says when I asked them he said when they were pinned down they were trusting the blood atonement of Christ to save them my old pastor believed that a person could ask God to save them not be saved and he taught when he called cashing in he taught that a sinner could come to God and say God I want to be saying please save me and that God perked up in heaven and said okay this guy's looking for salvation what we need to do is get him the gospel so he can believe in be saved and he said that it's trusting the blood atonement to saves you so even my old pastor believed the Bible that you're not saved until you trust the blood well you can ask God to save you anytime you want help yourself but that's not what saved you what saves you is when you came to the cross and you trusted the blood atonement so if you go around and you tell people just ask God to save you what you've done is you've got them to ask God for salvation but they haven't gotten so much so why would you beat around the bush and not give them the way of salvation and tell them how to get saved that's what the gospel is we were in church the other day and and I got sad after church and I told my wife is we're drove I'm driving home and honey that guy was beating on the pulpit and screaming and yelling and say come on down to the altar to get saved come on down come to Jesus and I sat there and I said honey why would he spend all that time begging people to come down to the altar to get saved when he could have spent that time preaching the gospel of salvation and people could have gotten saved right there in their seat I've always wondered about that that's what the gospel that Paul preached the gospel Paul never went someplace and says wrong again saying come up and ask me and I'll tell you and then shut his mouth everywhere he went he said you trust the bus home of the Christ you're saying Jesus dying was bad Rome began it's all about the blood of love yes forgiveness you're justified by what he preached the gospel but what we have today we have people that claim to be Christians that are resting or twisting the scriptures to their own destruction and they're telling people to do certain things that might that doesn't save and that might give them the opportunity to want to be saved and to seek out and look for more but it doesn't save them so why don't they preach what does save them faith in the blood preaching a person just ask God to save you what does that do that destroyed the type in the Old Testament the Old Testament like I said they had to give sacrifices and oftentimes they would sacrifice a lamb for their sins so they bring this lamb and the man was supposed to bring this lamb and shed the blood of that lamb so he cut that throat and that blood poured out and the Bible says it's the blood that maketh atonement for the sins Leviticus 17:11 now where is asking in that Old Testament type of salvation today we know that Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin the world today people say we'll just go to God go to Jesus say O God please save me how does that fit into the Old Testament type it does not no man in the Old Testament went before the priest and said well priest um I'm going to kill that lamb so shed its blood but I'm going to ask that lamb for forgiveness as that led him to save me a little am a lot of people today they say ask Jesus in your heart they say that's the gospel no it's not who in their right mind would go back in the Old Testament sense and watch a man sacrificing a lamb for his sin and see that lamb praises the man pray to the lamb say Oh little lamb come into my heart that's ludicrous that's ridiculous that's not second sanity no the man brought the sacrifice so that the sacrifice should be made in the blood shed because he saw my faith is in the blood and I'm trusting that blood because that's what makes atonement for my soul and he waited for that priest to offer up that blood because it's the blood that saves there's no asking involved it's obeying by bringing the sacrifice salvation so wonderful today we don't have the brain sacrifice we are saved by simply trusting the sacrifice that's already been made for us through Jesus Christ and we don't go to Jesus say oh jesus please save me Jesus said I will save you all I ask is that you trust me and it's the faith that saves it's not that asking so do you see how it's wrong twice to tell a person to ask God save you because it's not doctorly correct nowhere in the New Testament under Paul does Paul tell a person ask God to save you it doesn't fit the typology of salvation through the blood in the Bible he's also judicially wrong if you ever been to court let's put this in a in a way to where you can understand it a man goes out and let's say he gets drunk he's drunk driving and he kills five people oh he does a horrible thing he runs over a mother and a child and it killed these five people and he goes before a judge he's standing before a judge and the judge there is the representative of the law and the judge says all right the law demands a penalty for your crime now what if the man says well judge I know I killed those people and I know that begins to long but would you please I'm just asking you oh please judge let me go do you think that that judge would say okay have a good day you're free that's the most ludicrous ridiculous disgusting teaching that is not salvation according to the Bible the book of Hebrews said there must be a just recompense of reward according to law basic law when a man commits a crime there is a penalty that he must pay someone has to pay for that crime what's so great about salvation is that God is the judge and Jesus is the lawyer and Jesus Christ went to the judge 2,000 years ago and he says I'm going to make a plea bargain for this Center matter of fact the law demands that someone pay for the penalty I'm just going to paint myself and you come before God in the court you don't dare ask the judge judge will you please save me and forgive me and judge just please let me go if the judge lets you go he is a perjurer and he is a corrupt judge that has broken the law the bible says in john chapter 8 verse 3 does god from her judgment or does the almighty pervert justice justice is when a crime is committed someone must pay the only way judicially to be saved is not to go to a judge and ask him to pervert the law to let you go free the only way to be saved if someone has to pay for that crime and what somebody said is is jesus paid our penalty on the cross he paid my sin debt and I go before the court I'm say I'm guilty as hell I deserve to pay for my sins and Jesus stands up and says alright I made a plea bargain on your behalf if you'll trust me if you trust what I did if you'll take that penalty that payment that I made that you can be justified and go scot free do you know the word justified in the court term justified in the eyes of the law when a person is justified it's just if I never sinned but how am i justified judicially according to the Bible it's not when I ask the judge and beg the judge to let me off I got justified when I took the payment that has been made on my behalf by faith so do you see how telling someone just ask God to save you asks God to be a corrupt judge if asking God to forgive you outside of the judicial atonement that's been made on your behalf to clear you and to forgive you of all your sins what a horrible thing well there are people out there today that will say nope nope you're wrong mr. breaker the Bible teaches that salvation is by simply asking God to save you alright such people leave out the blood atone of Christ completely and they try to get you to sit safe and what they're doing whether they know it or not is they're telling you that your asking is what saves you so what they're saying is that what you do the fact that you ask that's a work they're saying you're saved by your work of asking what is their faith in clearly their faith is and what they did they're asking their faith is God in what Jesus did his atonement for their sins I see a perversion of the gospel I hope you see it I've made it clear but there's many ministers in the world today that don't see that and they go around they preach well one gets a disaster on Satan and they go to Bible verses one of the Bible verses they go to is Luke chapter 18 verse 11 through 14 let's read that many people call this the sinner's prayer Luke 18 11 through 14 says the Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself god I think that I'm not as other men are extortioners unjust adulterers or even as a publican and I fast twice a week by doing this and this and this and the other thing verse 13 and the publican standing afar off would not lift up so much as his eyes into heaven and smote his breast saying God be merciful to me a sinner jesus said in verse 14 I tell you this man went down to his house justified rather than the other for everyone that exalteth himself shall be abased and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted there are people that have preached this and say what he did is he asked God to save them he said God be merciful to me Savior and they said he got safe and you're safe today by asking God to save you and this is their proof text for salvation by asking God to save you when did this take place right I'll put a star here wait a minute is that under false ministry that happened before Jesus died on the cross you see salvation today is through what Paul preached and Paul preached do you trust the blood atonement like what you're reading right there is not New Testament salvation that's Old Testament still before Jesus died what has someone done to preach that salvation is by asking God to save you through that proof that they have rest the scripture to their own destruction they have perverted the gospel of Christ and they've gone back to the Old Testament and trying to force that into salvation for the New Testament and they are a heretic they are a liar they are the Sidra let's go to another one Matthew chapter 14 what they have is a misunderstanding of salvation you can't miss it when you read the Bible when you see salvation is simply resting in what Jesus did accepting trusting in what Jesus did for you then you get the gospel but if you want to believe it's something you have to do and make it work then you hold on to your self-righteousness and see how that works out for you trusting in what you did rather than what Jesus did for you Matthew chapter 14 verse 28 here we have a beautiful story of a man named Peter and I've heard from pulpits ministers preaching this and saying this is how you get saved and they read here in Matthew chapter 14 verse 28 and Peter answered him and said lord if it be thou been me to come to the lawyer verse 29 he said calm and when Peter was come down out of the ship he walked on the water to go to Jesus verse 30 and when he saw the wind boisterous he was afraid and beginning to sink he cried saying lord save me and I've heard preachers and ministers say and if you want to be safe today let's go all you do is just ask God to save you and just go to him a prayer so say God save me if that salvation let me show you when that took place right there what is that that's before Jesus died was Peter down on his knees begging God for salvation of his soul not in your life he was about to drown physically and he was scared of dying and he says God saved me from dying he did not say God please save me and give me salvation of my soul and look at what Jesus said in verse 31 and immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught him and said unto Him o thou of little faith wherefore did that without doubt Jesus Christ rebukes Peter hey why did you have faith what are you doing asking me to save you without trusting in me you see that's the problem any people today think because they rest the scriptures of the own destruction the salvation comes by you asking God to save you rather than you believing and trusting in God to say so what we have in Christianity today is many people that have asked God to save them without trusting God to do so and they have a perverted gospel because they're still holding on to what they've done and they haven't been cashed in yet they haven't trusted in what Jesus did for them I get emails from people all the time that used to watch someone on YouTube and they wrote to me and they said brother breaker this man is confusing he used to preach right and he doesn't preach correctly anymore and we were confused we have unsubscribed we don't watch him anymore he doesn't preach the gospel anymore he's gone off on a different tangent he's preaching something else and he confused us and I write back well God's not the author of confusion why are you confused and I said well he's confusing us but he's preaching against believing and he's trying to tell people you just get saved by asking and I said well are you saying they said well I don't know I don't have any shirts I said watch this video of mine and look up these verses in the Bible and go here look and every one of them and it's been quite a few have written back and said brother breaker I now know that I'm saved and I have the peace that passes all understanding and I know beyond any shadow of a doubt I am 100% sure that I'm safe because I'm trusting in the blood atonement of Jesus Christ and I'm trusting in what Jesus did to get me to happen I was confused before by this preaching but this perching of the true gospel not perverted does it confuse me and they say I got saved because I'm trusting in the blood and I know I'm safe and I say praise God praise God for it how sad that there's people out there that we're trying to deceive you it's probably because they themselves are deceived you know what's sad is when you're deceived you don't know you're deceived when you're deceived you're believing a lie but you think you have the truth that's what being to see this you literally think you're right and everybody else is wrong and then that makes you attack other people once you back up a minute and say well wait a minute my trusting in my asking or am i trusting in the blood of Christ because this is salvation that over there is not oh sure go ahead ask God to say god he wants to help yourself I'm not going to tell anybody don't ask God to say that's a good start to search for salvation it shows you want to be saved but that's just a start you're not saved when you ask now God is responsible to get you this to believe in it might be through this video right here that you hear the gospel and that's when you get saved it's not when you ask that you could say it's when you trust the gospel that you can say let me give another example of people to twist the scriptures go to Matthew chapter 7 I've heard many many many ministers preach this message and they like to say ask seeking knock and they say salvation is by asking God to save you and then he knocks on your heart and you open your hearts door let him in what does that even mean and so they go to Matthew chapter 7 verse 17 they said asking should be given you seek and you shall find knock and should we open you for everyone that seek it or ask is receiving it so you can find him that knocketh to shove you and they say so this is salvation and this is the text verse and this is the verse of salvation to be saved you ask God to send you when did this take place in the Bible that's right right here right before the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ I thought about making this sermon a title dispensational salvation or misplacing salvation dispensational ii you're not saved by Matthew Mark Luke and John and what's cent over there you're saved over here by trusting the gospel that God gave to Paul Peter tells you be warned about these people that read the scripture in the instruction go over to Paul to find salvation so here you have a person the old Old Testament because it's still Old Testament cuz it's before Jesus died it says ask seeking not administer say believe you ask God to save you this verse says that he will know it doesn't know it doesn't you must always read the contents look at the very next verse verse 9 or what man is there of you whom if his son ask bread will he give him a stone verse 10 or if he ask a fish he will give him a serpent this is a relationship of a father in his son when you're saved and only when you're saved that's when Jesus is your God the Father is your father and you're the son of God this is not a message this is not a passage of scripture telling a lost person to ask God to save them it's the conduct of a father asking his son asking his father for something but they don't get it they don't get it they run through there like a bull in a china cabinet they run through the Bible and they miss apply Scripture here's here's a good one Psalms 34 6 this poor man cried and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles and if they see that means you call God that's got a second when did that take place that was David back here I'm not over here and it didn't say that it saved his soul it said it saved him out of his troubles that's a physical salvation not a spiritual salvation of your soul so men twist the scriptures to their own destruction they look for passages to back up their false religious teachings and they will not go to the scriptures now where did this teaching come from that you're saved by asking rather than believing I don't have time to get into this today but there was a religious movement in in the last couple hundred years in America Universalist Unitarian if you begin to study the Universalist the Unitarians they denied the blood torrent of Christ they hated the teaching that if I carry a substitute pay for your sins in your place they said I can't stand that I believe I have to pay for my own sins and they prided themselves on believing that you're saved by asking I just forgive your sins and they had an element of works in their salvation and so they would go around and they would preach if you want to be saved then beg God for forgiveness or ask God to forgive you are a Scottish Savior that eventually led to ask Jesus into your heart and that eventually led to the popular doctrine being taught today that salvation is by asking God to save you again not a Bible doctrine a tradition of me faithful men wicked men ungodly men people that did not follow the Bible teaching and blood atonement in fact they denied the blood coming of Christ so they perverted the Gospels and their teaching is still in the world today and many people talk although what they teach rather than what the Bible teaches what I'm trying to do today is show you the true gospel and salvation is by believing or trusting in the finished work of Christ is by faith in the blood atonement of Christ if you want to deny the blood of Christ and divert someone to a completely different gospel and pervert the gospel and say that asking not to say you saves you that you help yourself heretic you have perverted the gospel of Christ and deny the blood atonement and the blood for the forgiveness of your sins and you are making people confused I will tell you as a witness firsthand I've gotten so many emails from people saying brother breaker I was confused when I listen to this preaching that I came I watched your videos I heard that my faith is in the blood of Christ I am no longer confused I am saved and I'm on my way to heaven and I know that I know that I know that I'm saved that's the Bible teaching the blows omen of Christ that's a man-made teaching telling you to do something to be saved now let's close with Philippians chapter 1 in verse 27 look I'm not angry I'm not mad I'm just sad we are really close to the rapture of Christ Jesus is coming soon I want people to get saved I wanted to trust the blood so that they'll go at the rapture I'm not going to waste my time for getting the blood atonement and telling people just ask God to save you because all I've done is that ask them to ask God for something and they might take years before God cashes in and actually gets them saved by believing the gospel why don't we just go straight to the gospel and tell them this idea came so that they do get Philippians chapter 1 verse 27 through 29 the Apostle Paul says this now I know preaching this message I'm going to have some adversaries all throughout the ministry that I've been in I begin preaching the truth and I've always noticed there are others out there they claim to be ministers that want to hold on to this dearly they will not let go of their own self-righteousness they want so bad to try the Pearl myth doctrine rather than come to the true doctrine of salvation so the rest in the scriptures to their own destruction and they've attacked me all throughout my ministry you know what I say who cares I'm going to stand before God one day the last thing in my mind is going to be what so-and-so said about me all I want to do is stand before God and hear him say well done now I'm doing the faithful servant you pointed them to my blood the way of salvation and whom we have redemption through his blood the forgiveness of sins so I'm not worried about people saying this or that or the other thing about me I've already been through all that I had one person tell me break through your friction a newfangled gospel you and your blood atonement whoever thought of such a stupid doctrine all Jesus Christ up Peter of the early apostles Philip I mean the bye all throughout church three they're pointing people to the blood of Christ so I don't care what people say about me but when you preach this message the demons of Hell perk up and say oh oh oh oh attack that guy we don't want people to hear that message the devil loves it when you preach anything other than the blood I've talked to people that have had demons and they told me I've asked them I said so you had a demon so what's the one thing that demons hate more than anything else and every one of them thought about it for a second said well you know when I was around a Christian and they mentioned the blood of Christ that demon just went it couldn't stay in the blood you're really going to attack this message of the blood of Christ that's what demons do that's what Unitarian Universalists to attack the message of salvation by the blood this is the Bible teaching you want to hold on to your false testimony and your false doctrine you help yourself Philippians 1:27 says only let your conversation be as a becoming the gospel of Christ then whether I come and see you or else PS and I'm gonna hear of your affairs that you stand fast in one spirit with one mind that means we should all believe the same thing once we all believe we should all believe in the blood of Christ and it says striving together not striving against one another the saddest thing I've ever seen is people that claim to be Christian ministers and they attack other ministers on this when they should all be preaching this salvation by faith in the blood atonement of Christ salvation by believing the gospel and instead of striving together for the faith of the gospel what does that faith in the blood number 28 says and in nothing terrified by your adversary say you don't terrify me I'm not scared of you I'm scared of Jesus Christ and scared of God and I'm scared the only thing that the Apostle Paul was scared off but I didn't preach the gospel right and then preach it enough I want people to get saved and I'm scared of wolves in sheep's clothing is coming and trying to divert people from trusting in the blood to trusting a false gospel in nothing terrified by your adversary which is to them in evident token of perdition they're cursed their destruction their they're in perdition if they don't believe the true gospel of salvation and its eminent it is evident not to me but to those people that email me it's very evident that if you're preaching this over here that you're wrong and they watch this video and they say brother brick if you're right that guy's bridge in a different gospel he's not preaching the true gospel of salvation is an evident token of perdition but to you of salvation and that of God I'm so glad I'm safe I'm so glad I know I'm saying what your verse 29 brunchy unit is given in the behalf of Christ not only to believe on Him oh wait wait you mean salvations I believe me then why do you preach against salvation by believing it says for unto you have given in the behalf of Christ not only to believe on him but also to suffer for his sake praise God if I'm going to suffer for Jesus I'm going to suffer for standing on the Word of God standing on the gospel and standing on the blood of Christ for something are you safe you might be one of those that many years ago I said a little prayer us God to save you or your your thinking it's something that you said or you did it saves you give up on yourself righteousness give up trusting you what you did or you said trust solely in the finished work of Jesus Christ are you safe this message is for you to show you how to be saved I hope you get saved if you're a minister are you claim to be a minister why won't you preach the gospel of salvation why won't you preach the blood 1 once you instruct sinners to trust the blood of Christ why would you divert them to something else than the atonement of Christ for salvation the Bible is very clear the Apostle Paul is very clear you're saved by faith by belief by trusting the question is faith in one faith in the finished work of Christ faith in the gospel faith in the blood of Jesus Christ I hope this has been a blessing I hope this is exactly what these people wanted me to preach I hope it it will answer the question are you saved by asking God to save you no if you ask God to save you without trusting in the blood atonement of Christ to be saved you got nothing you are not saved until you trust the blood of Christ so if you are a minister then why aren't you preaching the blood of Jesus Christ appreciate you watching this ministry purchase you watching this I just thank God for all the souls that have been saved through my ministry throughout the years over 20-some years of preaching the gospel and I will never quit I've had people contact me and say brother breaker I want one thing of you I say what do you want never stop never quit never give up preach the gospel preach the word be instant in season out of season reprove rebuke and exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine that's what I'm going to do until Jesus comes and I'm thank you all for your emails and for your encouragement to continue preaching and I just pray to God those people that are guilty of perverting the gospel we'll get right with Christ get right with God and preach the truth this is the gospel I hope it's a blessing I hope you see God bless we'll see you next time
