Fighting Hell: Are you Helping Heaven or Hell?

Todd Tomasella: FIGHTING HELL this morning. Perhaps it’s because, to begin with, as I entered a coffee shop in another town, there were 2 obviously hungry, homeless people. Spent the last few dollars in the account to feed them, praise God. Might as well leave this earth empty! Didn’t Jesus empty His life blood for us on that cross?

“For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.” 1 Timothy 6:7

God help those who have money sitting in accounts, investments, or items they could sell … (Luke 12:33-34; 16:19-31; Acts 2:44-45; 4:32-35; 1 John 3:16-19, etc.). They are in big trouble.

You are welcome to help. Your help is needed. God called me out to serve Him! No fool in their right mind would choose this course but for now I must preach (1 Corinthians 9:16). It’s the only unpaid calling on earth and yet no profession comes within a million universes of its importance. Eternity is in the balance for millions of souls alive on the earth today.

“Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.” Joel 3:14

People are being reached with the love and Gospel of Christ today and daily. Gospel literature is being dispersed abroad (Bibles, tracts, Scripture-rich books, etc.).

You won’t get a manipulation from here. You will not be “promised” to become rich on this earth if you give and yet, you will receive exhortation and admonition to lay down your life and give (2 Timothy 4:2b).

A few things we do:

Preach the Word daily (2 Tim. 4:1-4).
Evangelize the lost (Mk. 16:15-20).
Feed and clothe the poor (Prov. 19:17; James 1:27, etc.).
Supply Gospel materials (King James Bibles, Gospel tracts, and Scripture Rich books) to captive incarcerated audiences across the nation (2 Tim. 4:13).
The sometimes teeth-pulling ministry of ministering to elders/pastors/evangelists, etc.
Please consider a recurring gift. This work needs to be sustained. Don’t worry, I have no vehicle or rental of my own. The money goes to the GOSPEL.

DONATE

NOTE: God has not called everyone out to serve full-time and yet He’s called ALL of His children to participate. This outreach for Jesus has been ongoing since 1987. Not going anywhere. Please fuel HIS work. Thank you.

Eating and Drinking Damnation

SOME have been indoctrinated to believe that because Jesus did HIS redemptive work perfectly on the cross, that they have no personal responsibility to obey God. The wolves who mislead them have told them that they’ll be in Heaven no matter what but their rewards will vary based on obedience. But Jesus says “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.” (Matthew 7:21)

When we get to know the LORD ourselves by diligently studying His Word, a whole different picture arises in our hearts. The concept or wording “once saved always saved” or “eternal security” or “perseverance of the saints” appear no where in God’s Word. In fact, these concepts blatantly contradict God’s Word.

The only person who could be misled by this damning lie would be the individual who refuses to know God himself by personal diligent study, humility, and repentance (2 Timothy 2:15). But that’s just it – many do not want to know the truth. They’d rather bask in the lie that gives them the fairy tale idea that they can live as they wish in this life and no matter what, they will be in Heaven. This is a lie from hell.

When they think of the atoning death of Christ, they picture that Jesus died once for all and that the only responsibility they have is to receive initial salvation. All the rest of what Jesus and His apostles taught is off the table – out of sight and out of mind. They want nothing to do with that cross Jesus commanded to be taken up daily to follow Him (Luke 9:23-24, etc.). Such is view as optional.

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” Galatians 6:7-8

So many are taught and believe that since they had one moment of faith, they are justified and Heaven bound no matter who they conduct their life on this earth.

“He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” 1 John 2:4

Remember how we are instructed to “shew the Lord’s death till he come”?

“For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.” 1 Corinthians 11:26

The Gospel Centers Upon Christ’s Blood

The Gospel of Jesus Christ centers upon and is anchored in His redeeming Cross!

Beware of the many Christ-denying preaching, song lyrics, quotes, and books which do not aggrandize – UPHOLD and magnify Jesus Christ – “Not holding the Head.” (Colossians 2:18-19) “The spirit of antichrist” is behind all such subversion (1 John 2:18; 4:1-6).

“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28

JESUS washes away ALL the sins of EVERY person who repents! THAT’S WHY He came – to redeem and forgive and dwell with forever! Matthew 26:28; John 17:3; Ephesians 2:6-7; Colossians 1:14; 1 John 2:1-2, etc.!!!!!

False teachers promise victory and success outside of Christ’s cross. Yet it is only when Jesus remits the sins of the repentant who are believing upon Him, that “all power” from Christ in Heaven is given them to overcome Satan.

“And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven (due to Christ’s blood).” Luke 10:18-20

After dying on that cross, being buried, and rising from the dead, Jesus sent for His body:

 “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20

It is only and as one is submitted to God by repentance and faith in the blood of the Redeemer, that he is able by Christ to resist Satan and overcome him:

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7

Submitting ourselves to God is initially and perpetually centered at Christ’s redeeming cross (blood)!

“And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.” Matthew 26:26-29

What is it that Jesus wanted us to supremely remember? What did the Son of God never want us to forget?

“And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.” 1 Corinthians 11:24-25

The death of the LORD Jesus Christ on the cross where His sinless, divine blood was shed, is of paramount, essential importance and should not only never be forgotten but celebrated unto we are with Him!

You will recall how Jesus emphasized the forgiveness of sins which is through His blood …. “the blood of his cross.” (Colossians 1:20)

 Mat_9:5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

Mar_2:9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

Luk_5:23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?

“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, 6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 1:5-6

“He must increase but I must decrease.” John 3:30

Did you hear the cross when you listened to a supposedly biblical message? If not, you are being misled and were listening to a wolf in sheep’s clothing …..

The cross-less message is why you are where you are now. Continuing to feed on and fund the wolves who are the very “enemies of the cross of Christ” is rebellion (Philippians 3:18-19; 2 John 7-11). It’s time to hearken to the Master – His teachings have not changed one bit. It’s time for you to die and let Him reign! The cross requires a deliberate worship-filled obedience.
