WHY BELIEVING YOU MUST KEEP THE LAW MEANS YOU ARE SHUT UP FROM A SAVING FAITH- Gal.3:23-26

By Edward O’Hara , As I have said many times before. If you are defining sin by what the law says you are in the wrong covenant. The reason this is so very important for we who profess to believe in Jesus is that being in the wrong covenant keeps us from knowing Him and having the eternal life that is only made possible by knowing Him. This is why Paul said in Gal.3:23 while Israel was under the law they were “shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.” A faith that Paul says in Rom.10:17 “comes by hearing. And hearing by the word of God.” To show that faith for eternal life is only found in the New Covenant. And could not be found in the Old. Which is why we see that those in the…

THE TIME OF THE JEWISH PASSOVER IS THE TIME OF JESUS’ DEATH AND RESURRECTION, NOT EASTER!- Mt.26:2

By Edward O’Hara, In what universe could Easter, supposedly the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus, be celebrated almost a month apart from Passover? Why would anyone think it proper to separate the two events, this year by almost a month? I must admit that I had not really considered this before. But, somehow this year it hit me that it just didn’t make any sense to have these events separated like this. As I had never before separated them in my own heart. How can Jesus’ death and resurrection be separated by weeks? When the Bible plainly says they are separated by 3 days and nights? And are actually a memorial of the same events. But, for some reason the world does this even though the 2 are linked in the Bible as happening within this 3 day and…

ADAM WAS MADE NATURAL, NOT SPIRITUAL FOR OUR EXAMPLE

Edward O’Hara Why did God make Adam a natural man? Why didn’t God make him spiritual from the beginning? Oh,” you say, “but God did make him spiritual from the beginning. He made him in His image and likeness so that means he was made spiritual”. If you believe that you are seriously and sadly mistaken. Because Paul said plainly in 1Cor.15:45-50 that Adam was not made a spiritual being when God made him, but a natural being. A living soul. Of the earth earthy. Flesh and blood. And God said in Gen.3:19 that all that Adam was was made from the dust. And to the dust, he shall return. With that cleared up, we will now return to our original question. Why did God make Adam natural and not spiritual from the beginning?  The short answer is that God chose…

WHY THIS MUST BE DONE WHEN YOUR FOOT, HAND, OR EYE OFFENDS YOU- Mt.18- Pt.3

By Edward O’Hara, As I shared in the last 2 messages there is a time when we are to cut off or cast out the one bringing an offense into the fellowship that may cause others to be cast into hell. And how this doctrine that should have been dealt with in the manner prescribed by Jesus, and later Paul, has become the main doctrine taught in churches. Because the church is apostate. A man named Pelagius, who was ostracized by many of his peers, spoke of this doctrine that Augustine brought into the Roman Catholic church. Claiming that Augustine was teaching gnostic heresy. The evidence of this Pelagius said was that he was denying free will, and making the spirit of antichrist claim that Jesus did not come in the same flesh all men have. Saying also that Augustine…

IS THE 10 KINGS PROPHECY OF REV.17 HAPPENING NOW?- Rev.17:16-18

Rev.17 is a description of events that happen before the antichrist comes on the scene. This means that when reading Revelation you know it does not lay out a linear description of prophecy being fulfilled. But, is actually a back and forth overlay of events both leading up to, and that happen during the great trib. It is vitally important that we recognize this. What I mean is that as we read Revelation we find vials, bowls, and trumpets, etc that are events and judgments of God poured out. But, these are not happening linearly as if when the vials are finished the bowls begin. And when the bowls are finished the trumpets begin. They are a description of things that are happening all at the same time. To be understood as if overlaid upon each other. Because if we…

THE WORKS RIGHTEOUSNESS OF MORAL GOV’T THEOLOGY- THE INIQUITY THAT MAKES JESUS SAY “I NEVER KNEW YOU”

Edward

Iniquity. What is it when Jesus uses it in Mt.7:21-23 saying “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”   If we will consider the context as we must in everything we read in scripture we will see that Jesus is not referring to immorality here. Because these people are doing good things like casting out devils and prophesying. And they believe they are doing these morally good…

WHY THIS MUST BE DONE WHEN YOUR FOOT, EYE, OR HAND OFFENDS YOU- Mt.18- Pt.2

By Edward O’Hara, Taking up where we left off last time. I will now continue to show Biblically how a man that is the hand, eye, or foot that causes offense that Jesus spoke of in Mt.18. Must be cut off so that he can not cause others to be cast also into the fire with him. The clue we have that shows us it is a man through whom the offense comes is from Mt.18:7 that says, “Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!” So these body parts that Jesus says to cut oof” are people who offend with false teachings that lead to hell. Making sure that we understand that this is not talking about someone who is an actual…

A PROPHETIC- AND IN GOD’S PLAN- VERY NECESSARY STUMBLING- Rom.11

First, I have a new Rumble channel at which I am posting videos because my old computer won’t let me sign in to my other channel. To see them and subscribe go to https://rumble.com/user/Olowery So, as I said last time in my first message covering the first several verses in this Rom.11, once more as Paul often expresses in all of his epistles we can not, we must not allow works to persuade us that they have anything to do with salvation in any way. But, only trusting in Jesus as He trusted the Father while He lived as a man on earth. As Paul shows us justification is by the faith of Christ in Gal.2:16. And not by any works. Especially the works of the law.   Jesus showed us what righteousness is by submitting His will to the Father’s.…

KEEPING OUR FOCUS- THE FALSE TEACHING OF “THE FALL”- Gen.3:22 and Rom.5:13

Keeping our eyes on Jesus can be difficult for some today. Given what many believe is prophetic fulfillment that is happening all around us. But, focus we must. Because the most important thing a man must do is preach the message of God’s grace. A grace that has nothing to do with works regardless of who we believe has done or is doing them. We believers are here because there are people who need to hear about God’s grace. So let’s keep ministering reconciliation to the world so they too can hear and believe and be saved. And to people in the churches so that they can be free from the captivity of satan they are in because of the strong delusion created by their belief in the original sin and sin nature doctrine. The message that I am going…

IMMORTALITY, WHY WE DID NOT INHERIT IT FROM ADAM Edward O’Hara

Was Adam immortal when God made him? Was his body different from what ours is now? What does the Bible say about this? I ask this question because there is so much false teaching regarding this issue. And this issue is very important because it speaks to the very heart of what it means to be human. Are we as Adam was when he was made? Or is our flesh different from his when God made him? This is a very important issue because Heb.2:14 says that Jesus came in the same flesh all men have. But, if Adam was mortal then how is it that he could live forever? Isn’t that what being immortal means? We will begin by reading from the Genesis account first to see what, if anything, is there regarding this issue.  In Gen.1:26 we see God telling the story about…
