SEEKING TRUTH? DON’T FALL FOR THE HARLOT’S GNOSTIC LIES- MT.12:33-37

By Edward O’Hara Fruit is not works and works are not fruit. So when you read Mark4 or Mt.13 or Luke8 where Jesus taught about the sower sowing the word, or anywhere fruit is spoken of in the Bible in regard to what believers are expected to produce, we need to be aware of this. The gnostic believes that his flesh is evil. And there is no redemption for it. When he is done with it he believes he will have ascended from it to become one with the divine. As a gnostic Augustine read this belief directly into the Genesis narrative. This is what Pelagius, a contemporary with Augustine and his most ardent protagonist, discovered as he heard Augustine proclaiming his beliefs. Finding that it was when Adam sinned by eating the fruit that his flesh and all of…

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…

BY THEIR OWN ADMISSION ROMAN CATHOLICISM IS BUILT UPON THE FLESH- Mt.16:18

By Edward O;Hara, We see this in the way RC define Mt.16:18. In this they will tell you straight up that their religion is built upon a man. Upon the flesh. And this man is not Jesus. It is Peter. For even as recently as with the current pope, and throughout her entire pagan history, she has said that there is no salvation outside of the Roman Catholic religion whose first pope was Peter. Because to her it is only in bowing to the pope as one who stands in the place of God on earth, and through belief in her pagan sacraments, that one receives salvation. This is why this religion fails to teach even one thing that is Biblical. And there has never been, nor can there be, any truth found in her. She is truly a habitation…

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 THIS ARMAGEDDON?!

Back in the 70’s when I first came to faith in Jesus we were so in love with God that all we could think about was when Jesus would return for us. We all wanted so much to see Him face to face. The Jesus movement was in full swing. And there were people everywhere talking about the signs of His coming. And how we just knew all the signs pointed to His soon return. But, as time went by we discovered more and more about the things that the Bible said needed to happen before that blessed event would take place. The scriptures came alive more and more. Causing many of us to take a step back from our myopic focus on His return. And focused more and more on our relationship with our savior. My love for Jesus…

By Edward O’Hara, THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU- LUKE17:20,21

By Edward O’Hara. Jesus said “The kingdom of God is within you” to a people who were expecting a messiah to come who would deliver to them a physical kingdom after conquering their enemies. But, these expected a natural kingdom to be theirs by the hand of a judge/deliverer just as the judges like Samson, Moses, and others had in olden times. But, the kingdom Jesus spoke of was one that delivered them from the natural men they were from the time Adam was made, to spiritual men for which Jesus came to make all men. From an inheritance through flesh and blood by a water birth from their mother’s womb. To an inheritance through spiritual birth that made them children of God and heirs to His eternal and spiritual kingdom in heaven. Both are literal kingdoms. And the Jew…

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…
