(01/25/2014) What Salvation Is

Accountability and salvation are topics, today, along with more on the destruction that must come by judgment.  A writer at “Yahoo! Answers India” using the ID “valerie” (Level 1 with 58 points, a member since 22 December 2013) posted the following first asked at Yahoo Answers United States:


If you are accountable for your sins then why do you need a 'christian savior'?

Do you believe a 'christian savior' is the only way to cleanse yourself of your sins rather than just learning from your mistakes and becoming a better human being without overriding concern for the promise of an afterlife?


THE BATTLE AXE:  Mankind Destroyed? (01/24/2014)—The blessing of divine judgment is intended to resolve all destructive conflicts, and settle the many recurring disputes among created beings and living creatures by an authoritative application of sacred law, by an undeniable demonstration of divine righteousness, and a full revelation of the invisible persons of GOD.  Beings who have refused the divine provisions that correct the damage generated through the operations of sin have already lost the divine content that permits eternal existence with GOD.  Because they are no longer truly angels, no longer truly human, no longer truly sacred beasts, many who once were expressions of divine being and sovereign will have become forms and objects that are no more than fiends, monsters, and rubbish that must be destroyed.  Had they a balanced and complete residue of divinity that is eternal, those once holy and righteous could never be destroyed.  See Matthew 25:  29-46, Revelation 2:  11 and Revelation 20:  13-15, KJV.


THE GOLDEN ARROW:  For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.  For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord:  whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.  For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.  But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.  For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.  So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.  (Romans 14:  7-12, KJV)


THE DOUBLE DAGGER:  Resisting Sin (12/21/2013); When People Covet (12/22/2013); Moses Killed? (09/23/2013); Salted with Fire? (09/24/2013); An Earth to Fix A Heaven? (05/18/2013); The Love of GOD (03/03/2013); Our Need for a Son (03/04/2013); Unless You Repent (03/05/2013)


“valerie”, a Christian believer’s explanation of divine salvation for sinners cannot be separated from their conversation about divine love, eternal life, and continuous fellowship with GOD in intimacy and close personal relationship.  There is so much to take into consideration that most believer’s simply say, you must be born again, and undergo changes in attitude, comprehension, disposition, and orientation.  Only then can it be clearly understood that Salvation appears among mankind as a set of divine operations and sacred events intended to fulfill the eternal purposes of GOD.  Just as salvation does not remove duty, godliness, or truth, salvation does not erase accountability.

Mankind has had to operate accepting many conditions for life such as birth, death, time, space, and the earth as our sphere of existence.  In the same way we seek to expand the finite limits upon our emotional, mental, physical and psychological person, we also seek to expand the many limits upon our spirit content.  Sin is a major barrier to our achieving full maturity, and being able to experience all the richness of life.  Sin opposes the existence of divine law, of GOD as the law giver, and of all that GOD has put forth as Creation.  Sin has become a fixed obstacle to experience for all created beings and living creatures, and cannot be eliminated through human imagination, logic, reason, romance, science or technology.

There is far more to be said, properly shared, and spiritually understood.  (For example, sin operates as an influence upon awareness and self-will.  As a result, sin does not appear as foreign, as an outside force, or as something strange.  Sin appears as normal, natural, and an acceptable aspect of oneself.  Often, like the back of our own head, others will know or see our faults and sins before we ourselves do.  Divine law allows us to recognize the awful action and consequences of sin; however, law has not eliminated sin.  Through the ministry of Jesus, believers receive a fresh endowment of divine Spirit that enables resistance to sin.)  Even so, I trust this fragment will be useful.  Be it unto you according to your faith.


He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.  (Revelation 21:  7-8, KJV)
