The Real Jesus - Part IV

"11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep." John 10:11-13

This article describes the Jesus Christ of the Bible and which church He is returning to receive to be with him.

2. Jesus Is The Only Way To Salvation

Jesus said in John 10:1,9-10 "1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber....9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." Jesus Christ is the door which leads to salvation and all the other ways or false religions lead to hell.

In John 14:5-6 Jesus said "5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

Jesus said in John 10:28-29 "28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand."

In Hebrews 5:8-9 it says "8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; 9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;"

In Acts 4:12 it says "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."

The Real Jesus - Part III

"11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep." John 10:11-13

This article describes the Jesus Christ of the Bible and which church He is returning to receive to be with him.

1. Jesus Is The Good Shepherd

c) The Church Will Not Follow The Voice Of Strangers - Jesus said in John 10:5 "And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers."

Jesus warned us in many passages of false prophets. In Matthew 7:15-23 it says "15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. 21 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. 22 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? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

In Matthew 24:24 Jesus says "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."

And also in Luke 16:14-15 it says "14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. 15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God."

We are living the days of the falling away of the church or great apostasy. The prophet Amos said in Amos 8:11 "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:"

Is Mystery Babylon Changing the Resurrection of Jesus Christ?
1. The Last Supper

In Matthew 26:17-28 it says "17 Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? 18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. 19 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover. 20 Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. 21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I? 23 And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. 24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born. 25 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said. 26 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."

Notice the feast of unleavened bread or passover was when Jesus Christ was crucified and died. For more information see the post titled "Feasts and Supper."

2. Jesus Christ Would Be Raised Again The Third Day

In Matthew 16:21 it says "21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day."

In Genesis 1:8 it says "8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day."

Notice one day is evening to morning.

Jesus Christ died on Thursday.

Thursday evening to Friday morning (1st day)
Friday evening to Saturday morning (2nd day)
Saturday evening to Sunday morning (3rd day)

In John 20:1 it says "The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre."

Notice the first day of the week is Sunday.

3. Mystery Babylon Changed The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ

Today many people are thinking that they are celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. They are not. This year passover is in April 2024 which is when Jesus Christ was crucified and died.

4. Good Friday

Jesus Christ did not die on Friday. If he did than he would have risen from the dead in two days and not three as the scriptures says.

For more information about Mystery Babylon see the post titled " Who Is Mystery Babylon."

The Real Jesus - Part II

"11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep." John 10:11-13

This article describes the Jesus Christ of the Bible and which church He is returning to receive to be with him.

1. Jesus Is The Good Shepherd

b) The Church Follows Jesus Christ And Knows His Voice - The church in this parable is the sheep. In John 10:2-4 Jesus says "2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice." Verses 22-27 show Jesus talking to the religious Jews of that day. In John 10:22-27 it says "22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. 23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. 24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. 26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:"

Jesus told them they were not His sheep. He said "My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow me." If we belong to Jesus then we know His voice.

The Real Jesus - Part I

"11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep." John 10:11-13

This article describes the Jesus Christ of the Bible and which church He is returning to receive to be with him.

1. Jesus Is The Good Shepherd

a) Jesus Is The Door - Jesus used a parable in John 10 to demonstrate that He is the good shepherd and His church is the sheep. In John 10:1-9 it says "1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. 6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them. 7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture."

Notice what Jesus says in verses 7-9: "7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture." We can have salvation only through Jesus Christ.
