There is no salvation outside of Jesus Christ.

The Church is the Body of Christ.

If someone believes that Jesus died on Wednesday as a private belief without leaving the Church or causing dissension, they are still in Christ.

If someone rejects the Church and the Faith she has been commissioned by Jesus to teach, well, see the first two sentences above.

Most people I have seen who believe this Wednesday nonsense are Sabbath keepers or Hebrew roots people. Both false cults.

The Church is the Body of Christ.

The Church Jesus established is Spiritual, not an institution. The body of Christ is made up of those in whom God has placed the earnest of their inheritance as the spark of the Holy Spirit. That placement CANNOT BE DONE BY MAN, and no one can snatch such a born from above member of Christ's body from God's hands.

Our Lord made it very plain to Nicodemus (John 3), you must be born again by the Grace of God in Christ. Jesus also made it very plain just how that happens: John 6:28 They said therefore unto him, ‘What may we do that we may work the works of God?’ 29 Jesus answered and said to them, ‘This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.’

God made it so simple, yet religions such as catholiciism will empower themselves at the expense of souls, because the catholic hierarchy teaches their sincere followers to strive for eventual Salvation. But one cannot earn Eternal life, for it is a being Whom comes into the dead human spirit, making the person alive in Christ, not the institutional church.

Thank GOD for AND!


It's like salvation...

Mark 16:16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Some organizations like to use the first part to PROVE one MUST be baptized to be saved; while ignoring the last part.

However; it does NOT say...


...but he that believeth is baptized not shall be damned.

Oh??



1 Corinthians 12:27-28 27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. 28 And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of guidance, and of different kinds of tongues.

Well.. I guess maybe you are not really capable of of just saying yes, or no. But have to mix them up together somehow. I was just looking for a simple yes, or no. Anything else added just mixes a little no in with the yes, or little yes in with the no.

I will try one more time. It is a simple questions. Do you believe that someone’s salvation is in jeopardy depending on the days of the week that they believe that Jesus died and was resurrected? Anything other than a NO answer means that you really DO believe this.

Either type just 2 letters: N O

or 3 letters: Y E S
