A 65-Disputation-Centered Sermon on Cosmic and Spiritual Salvation on the Nature of Justification, the World, the Flesh, the Devil and Everlasting Hell

I am responding to a small group of people who believe in some kind of sin-furthering naturalistic determinism in a way of life that furthers the lives of people through basically sin and Satan.  I have personally dwelt with this group years ago, but I feel that I am called by our Good Lord to respond to them.  They secretly creep into our lives and basically further a lifestyle of cosmic judgment.  It is my testimony this day that God alone saves and not anything else.  I conclude with saying, if you add anything to God for how someone is right before God you simply fail to understand true God-caused grace.

Come, ev'ry soul by sin oppressed,
There's mercy with the Lord,
And he will surely give you rest,
By trusting in his Word.
Only trust him, only trust him,
Only trust him now;
He will save you, he will save you,
He will save you now.
For Jesus shed his precious blood
Rich blessings to bestow;
Plunge now into the crimson flood
That washes white as snow.
Yes, Jesus is the Truth, the Way,
That leads you into rest;
Believe in him without delay,
And you are fully blessed.
Come then, and join this holy band,
And on to glory go,
To dwell in that celestial land,
Where joys immortal flow.  (TH, 724).

1.  Spiritual salvation is not from anything regarding the world, the flesh, the devil or eternal hell (Jn 1:13; Rom 9:11, 16).  That is, I honestly fought the dragon and his satanic priest.  He would have you think he "granted" me spiritual victory in Jesus.   It is a lie from the deepest pity of hell to say "something else can save rather than Christ alone."  It is a matter of supreme man-centered arrogance, cosmic man-focused idolatry and extreme selfish-bound hypocrisy of alleged incompatible godhood that doesn't even have the strength to save themselves.  That is, it is a satanic lie to suppose that men can save other men.  God alone saves but He chooses to use His instruments at His good pleasure.  However, not even evangelism adds to the only pure merits of Christ alone.  These "men that have turned themselves into the passion of women" wish to blindly suppose that no one should share the good news of Savior and Creator Jesus Christ, because they hate to be used of God to exalt the God-caused proliferation in the complete glorification of the sole merits of Christ alone according to God's good pleasure.  The biblical fact is, only God can save lost humanity not some evil occultic wizard like in ancient Israel.  Yes, the heathen-founded parapsychologists are still around but more in a take-what-I-like approach to religion from each religion no matter how detestable or dishonorable as long as it leads to the satisfaction of the sinful flesh and the pleasure of immoral monstrosities.

2.   These things above in Point-1 have no spiritual strength to spiritually save any child of wrath by nature (Eph 2:3) but only to merit damnation that has reached to heaven (Jer 51:9), because out of wickedness only comes wickedness (1 Sam 24:13).  

3.  Rather the nature of how someone is right with God is God's cause.  Yes, we can pray for lost souls (Phil 4:6-8).  However, those prayers add no works of satisfaction to the perfect and pure merit of Christ alone (Phil 3:9).  Anyone thinks they can "grant" spiritual salvation by adding to the perfect, divine, and supernatural unified righteousness of Christ alone (Gal 2:20) is sorely founded with man-made religion devoid of the nature of justification by faith alone (Eph 2:8-9; Tit 3:5).

4.  The will of man in libertarian freedom cannot save (Jn 1:13).

5.  The world cannot save because it hates Jesus Christ and God's people chosen in Christ (Jn 15:16, 18; 17:14).

6.   The evil one cannot save in anyway because Jesus prays to God the Father in Incarnate Submission in the Triune Economy of the Godhead as the Second Person of the Trinity that He would keep God's elect away from Satan (Jn 17:15)!  

7.  Why would Jesus ask God in Jn 17 to keep away that which could save (i.e., Satan)?  It may seem awful silly to even attempt to refute that Satan does not have the supernatural power to save.  However, I have faced people that believe he can do anything.  They are blind sons and daughters of Adam in pursuit to a reckless future where their very souls are in cosmic danger.  Satan is the proliferation of the essence of sin and he only has the cosmic power to destroy not to save!

8.  That is, Satan is only concerned with the nature of man's interest (Mt 16:23) unto outworking abominations in the cause of rebellious wickedness against the First Commandment in the Ten Commandments; the Father of lies is only bound to further his lies unto eternal damnation (Jn 8:44; Mt 25:41).  

9.  If Satan tells the truth like when he wanted to sift Simon Peter (Lk 22:31) it is only for a wicked outcome of harm to God's precious people (for example 2 Sam 24:10; 1 Chro 21:1).

10.  The source of spiritual salvation is God's grace alone (Eph 2:5, 8).  Rome says God's grace is necessary.  However, she does not say it is all-sufficient.  The matter of the 16th Century Reformation was not the necessity of God's grace but the all-sufficiency of God's grace.  God's grace is necessary and all-sufficient.  If God's grace is not all-sufficient, it leaves room for cosmic, unsaving religion.


11.  Do the human residents in everlasting hell know you by name?  Have you sinned so much in cosmic blasphemy that they know you by name?  The power of hell cannot undo a converted elect sinner.

Jesus, my great High Priest,
Offered his blood and died;
My guilty conscience seeks
No sacrifice beside.
His pow'rful blood did once atone,
And now it pleads before the Throne.
To this dear Surety's hand
Will I commit my cause;
He answers and fulfills
His Father's broken laws.
Behold my soul at freedom set;
My Surety paid the dreadful debt.
My Advocate appears
For my defense on high;
The Father bows his ears
And lays his thunder by.
Not all that hell or sin can say
Shall turn his heart, his love, away.
Should all the hosts of death
And pow'rs of hell unknown
Put their most dreadful forms
Of rage and mischief on,
I shall be safe, for Christ displays
His conqu'ring pow'r and guardian grace. (TH, 222).

12.   The source of spiritual salvation is God's awesome love (Rom. 5:8).  Those who do not have God's intention to save through the foredetermined intention of the Cross will never know God's love.


13.  The source of spiritual salvation is God's heavenly mercy (Tit 3:5) devoid of the sacramental waters of baptism or libertarian cooperation because He monergisticly saves His own.  That is, the elect lost souls at spiritual rebirth remain passive and God totally saves His own because He the lost have been found.

14.  Sin can never save or merit heaven.  Rather sin only merits and earns for us eternal hell (Jn 5:14; Mt 7:23).

15.  Sinners engage in explicit and various kinds of hidden fornications to get things in life.  But we are forbidden to do evil that good may come, "And why not do evil that good may come?—as some people slanderously charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just." (Rom 3:8 ESV).  You do not need another mediator because Jesus alone is Mediator (1 Tim 2:5).  Rome teaches that her priests are mediators (for example the teaching of Pope Francis I).  All you need to do is pray to the Trinity through Jesus crucified in light of a godly life.  He will surely grant you your request if you keep at it like an experienced veteran and have a Bible-believing church pray for you (Lk 11:9).

16.  The source of spiritual salvation is Christ alone (Acts 4:12).

17.  The source of spiritual salvation is the Cross alone for the forgiveness of sin (1 Cor 1:18) not the Roman practice of indulgences for the forgiveness of sins. 

Jesus! what a Friend for sinners!
Jesus! Lover of my soul;
Friends may fail me, foes assail me,
He, my Saviour, makes me whole.
Hallelujah! what a Saviour!
Hallelujah, what a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.
Jesus! what a strength in weakness!
Let me hide myself in him;
Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing,
He, my strength, my vict'ry wins.
Jesus! what a help in sorrow!
While the billows o'er me roll,
Even when my heart is breaking,
He, my comfort, helps my soul.
Jesus! what a guide and keeper!
While the tempest still is high,
Storms about me, night o'ertakes me,
He, my pilot, hears my cry.
Jesus! I do now receive him,
More than all in him I find,
He hath granted me forgiveness,
I am his, and he is mine. (TH, 432).

18.  God could turn the sin of the unregenerate on its head for the good of His pre-converted elect people for His predestinarian glory in the foreordaination of all things according to His good counsel (Eph 1:11).  That is, He would use the sin to show us we are no good (Rom 3ff) and in need of Jesus alone as our exclusive divine substitute, but none of this providential care in humbling us for His glory in personal woe adds to His dear Son and His blood and absolute righteousness by faith alone.

19.  Goodness comes from God alone.  That is, when there is the exclusivity of the goodness of Christ alone it is the glorification of His proliferating divine unified merit alone.  The sinner ought to never ascribe glory to himself but to the righteousness of Christ alone in how someone is justified.  There is a civil goodness that simply comes from God's providential hand in the unregenerate sinner's life before a holy God.  Civil goodness never saved anyone.  However, only Christ's divine and authentic goodness from Himself alone by faith alone will save.

20.  The only way out of everlasting hell is an exclusive God-born trust (Jn 3:36; Jn 1:13) in Christ alone (Rev 1:18).

21.   Some think that hell does not exist.  They say, "How can a good God create eternal torments in hell?"  The infallible Word (Jn 10:35) says that hell exists on the grounds of the sinless preaching of the Savior and Creator Jesus Christ (Mt 10:28; Heb 9:14).

22.  How many say "Lord, Lord" in this day?  It is how many will go to everlasting hell if left unchanged (Lk 6:46; Js 5:20; 1 Pet 4:8).

23.  Justification by faith alone is by grace alone (Rom 5:17-21).

24.  Justification by faith alone is by the blood of Christ (Rom 5:9).

25.  Justification by faith alone is through His bodily resurrection (Rom 4:25).

26.  Justification by faith alone is through divine righteousness (Rom 10:4).

27.  Justification by the instrument or means of faith alone (Rom 3:26-27).

28.  The fruit of justification is spiritual and cosmic forgiveness (Acts 13:38-39).

29.  The fruit of justification is God's peace exclusively through Jesus Christ the Almighty Prince of Peace and Everlasting Father.  That is, He is the Everlasting Father in that He is of one cosmic and eternal substance with God the Father.  We ought to distinguish between the Father and Son (they are two distinct Persons), but not eliminate the necessary distinctions within the economical Triune Godhead.  There are three distinct Persons (not separate persons): the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

30.  The fruit of justification is God's superlative holiness (Rom 6:22).

31.  The fruit of justification is through the IMPUTED righteousness of Christ alone (2 Cor 5:21).  There is no such thing as "imputed faith" because it is implanted not even "infused" by God's Spirit in supernatural regeneration (Tit 3:5).

32.   The fruit of justification is through good work of following God's moral law (Rom 8:4) but it cannot save because we are polluted with great sin.

33.  I'm serious when I say this!  There are hidden sinners who try to work with Satan to have him be somehow forgiven through a spiritual cost (like wickedness that prolongs life (Ecc 7:15), but God's people who are faithful by His Spirit live to a ripe old age (for example Gen 25:8).  Satan says, "what will a man give for his life?"  That is, he wants the soul of God's people like Job (Job 2:4).  Martin Luther once wrote, "I know the Devil well..."  We are called to be aware of his schemes (Eph 6:11).  Further, the Bible says that Satan is eternally damned without ever being forgiven (Mt 25:41).  In the occult, Satan seeks to find sinners who are desperate enough to have them take his place for doom-exalted judgment at the Last Day.  It is completely filled with damned folly through the interests of men, but God never grants forgiveness to him because he is simply sin-bound being completely hateful and devoid of God's ever Spirit.  The Lord will not permit him or his fallen angels to be pardoned.  If you notice, the demons who fought with Jesus in a cosmic rebellious revolution in the New Testament sought pardon through the oath of God (see Mk 5:7; Lk 8:28).  That is, like Esau the eternally damned will never be forgiven.  The damned angels have no Savior like the damned human sinners.

34.  How can anyone be saved?  We ought to appeal to God's sovereignty not Adam's rebellion-exalted will in a freedom that runs away from God.  We ought to dwell on God's freedom.  That is the only way man can be saved.  God found Adam in the Garden because He searches for the lost.  The lost are running away from God all the way to hell (Gen 3ff) out of spiritual spite against His divine truth (Lev 26:2728).  Spitefulness is human nature in rebellion against God's holy Word.

35.  No one would be saved in spiritual salvation if we had to depend on man's free will in part or in whole (for example Jn 1:13; Rom 9:11, 16).

36.  Man has completely fallen short of God's awesome glory (Rom 3:23).  That is, when man brings God glory it is not from him but from God alone.   Real righteousness is actually God glorifying His Son alone not sinners in part or whole!

37.  It is no secret what can God can; He saves the most desperate cases no matter what you have done.   There is no limit on His forgiveness; it reaches the highest heaven; it plunges to the lowest sea; His outstretched arms are there for you at Calvary.

38.  God's Word speaks of man's complete corruption (Is. 1:5-6).  Islam and Scientology say that man is good.  However, the Bible says that man is no good (for example Rom 3:12).

39.  It took a spiritual miracle of love and grace by our Savior and Creator Jesus Christ ALONE that saved my soul.  Once you add to Christ alone you have demonstrated that you simply do not fully understand supernatural and true grace.

40.   The divine remedy for the radical imperfection of sinners is Christ alone (Acts 4:12) not denying His exclusivity with Islam (RCC 841).

41.  The divine remedy for the radical sinnership of man is that God makes man a new creature (2 Cor 5:17).

42.  The spiritual remedy is conformity to Christ alone (1 Jn 3:2-3).

43.  No one can hide from Almighty God (Ps. 139:7-12).  There are others who believe it is possible hide things from God.  It is purely idolatrous arrogance that presumes knowledge over a self-existent Being who knows everything at all times.

44.  The Holy Triune God CANNOT sin (Hab 1:13).

45.  All that you should want is in Jesus if you are truly awakened.

46.  God cannot fail at His undying-love exalted promises (Tit 1:2).

47.  It is impossible for any saint who believes (Jn 3:16) to perish (Jn 10:27-29) because of God's legal declaration through Jesus.  Some say "it is legal falsehood."  If it is the REAL righteousness of Christ alone, how can it be falsehood or untrue or inauthentic?  I suggest to you that a sinner's goodness is a falsehood to be right with God with God's help compared to God's perfect righteousness alone through His God-born faith in a poor sinner.  Ponder that.
 
How lovely shines the Morning Star!
The nations see and hail afar
The light in Judah shining.
Thou David's Son of Jacob's race,
My Bridegroom and my King of Grace,
For thee my heart is pining.
Lowly, holy,
Great and glorious,
Thou victorious
Prince of graces,
Filling all the heav'nly places.
Now richly to my waiting heart,
O thou, my God, deign to impart
The grace of love undying.
In thy blest body let me be,
E'en as the branch is in the tree,
Thy life my life supplying.
Sighing, crying,
For the savor
Of thy favor
Resting never
Till I rest in thee for ever.
Thou, mighty Father, in thy Son
Didst love me ere thou hadst begun
This ancient world's foundation.
Thy Son hath made a friend of me,
And when in spirit him I see,
I joy in tribulation.
What bliss
Is this!
He that liveth
To me giveth
Life forever;
Nothing me from him can sever. (TH, 434).

48.  The Lord Jesus Christ is the only Redeemer (Is 44:6) because besides Him there is no other way of salvation through any other persons and that includes the Virgin Mary.

49.  Jesus reaches to the lowest hell for lowest sinner.  Have you not read in the New Testament that He saved Paul who is the foremost of sinners?  Why don't you bring your sins to Jesus today and be done with it?  He is waiting to pardon; His outstretched arms are at His Cross.  That is, it is where He alone forgives sin.  He can save you from hell because it is the Father's wrath.  The Father designed Jesus to come to earth; to earn salvation for you and die a atoning death for His people.   You must trust Him!  If you repent on a regular and daily basis, where it has become apart of you and in your spiritual "blood-stream" it is evidence of God's work in your heart but remember add nothing to Christ (the Person Who is Incarnate Grace) because He is more than enough to save you.

50.  He has all the wills of man in His hand.  He does what He pleases on earth and in heaven apart from being the author of sin.  There is no one who can say, "what are you doing?"  He is self-existent and eternally happy.  No one can surpass His thrice superlative holiness!  "Holy, holy, holy."

51.  The remission of sin for spiritual forgiveness comes from Christ's death alone apart from the man-made doctrine of purgatory (Mt 26:28).

58.  Do you not see the awesome sufferings of Christ (Is 53ff)?   How then can anyone add something to His incomprehensible sufferings at His meritorious Cross where sin was PAID IN FULL?

59.  Remission of sin comes through faith in Christ (Acts 10:43).  Faith is a free gift by God devoid of man-made things (Jn 1:13; Tit 3:5).  Faith is not through self-help, sacraments or hypnosis.  Faith is not born of man; nor the world; nor the devil; nor a process; nor hell; nor of saints; nor of angels.  Rather faith is born of God not of ourselves (Eph 2:8-9).

60.  Remission of sin is through repentance (Mk 1:4) but not earned through the Spirit-led will of submission to Christ.  That is, there is still remaining corruption that taints everything we do.  We need to repent of our repentance.  We need our tears to be washed.  This means only Jesus is enough for salvation in how someone is right with God, but none of us should neglect the command (not invitation) to particular and contrite repentance.

61.  The significance of remission of sin is the display of God's divine righteousness (Rom 3:23-26).  There is no righteousness like the righteousness that Jesus brings.  No, no!  The world cannot produce the divine goodness of the impeccable Christ.

62.  The remission of sin makes salvation real (Lk 1:77).

63.   The remission of sin must be preached (Lk 24:47).  Preaching is not like an Roman indulgence.  Man-made words cannot forgive sin but the Bible is divine rather than human in origin.  The Word has the power of Christ, because it is the sole glorification of the proliferation of the cosmic exaltation of the person and work of Christ alone.  Preaching is the supremacy of the Word about the centrality, exaltation and glorification of the Supreme Rock Jesus Christ.  The audience of a preacher is the pleasure and presence of God.

64.   Why go to Satan or the occult when the Bible has the spiritual answers for how you are right with God and Christian living (2 Tim 3:16-17)?

65.  Why fornicate to advance in life (immorality is a characteristic of the occult) when God says if you obey Him there is nothing He will withhold from you according to His wisdom (Ps 25:21)?

O mystery of love divine
That thought and thanks o'erpow'rs!
Lord Jesus, was our portion thine,
And is thy portion ours?
Didst thou fulfil each righteous deed,
God's perfect will express,
That we th'unfaithful ones might plead
Thy perfect faithfulness?
For thee the Father's hidden face?
For thee the bitter cry?
For us the Father's endless grace,
The song of victory?
Our load of sin and misery
Didst thou, the Sinless, bear?
Thy spotless robe of purity
Do we the sinners wear?
Thou, who our very place didst take,
Dwell in our very heart:
Thou, who thy portion ours dost make,
Thyself, thyself impart. (TH, 436)
