The B.I.B.L.E. Truly is our Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth...
------------------------------------------------------------
Spiritual insight: It is a written and proven fact, that Christ Jesus, came and died, even our years are documented, B.C. (Before Christ) and A.D (After Death). What saves us, is believing and confessing that He (Jesus Christ) is LORD of all the only begotten son of God, and was sent by God to die for the sins of the world (Romans 5:12-21), then be baptized to do as Jesus did (Matthew 3:10-17) to put on Christ (Galatians 3:16-29) (1st. Peter 3:21-22) that's it! What keeps us saved, is walking Christ like (after being baptized) by living by the Word of God (Ezekiel 18:20-32; Revelation 20:12).
Believers in Christ, go to a resting place until Christ returns or judgment, passing the first death., but may still be in danger of the second death, not living by the word (bible) of God (2nd. Corinthians 5:10; Matthew 7:15-23).
But Unbelievers go straight to hell (the first death) to wait on God's judgment, just to go to the lake of fire (the second death).

Salvation is not why God called us, but the avenue in which he used to redeem us back to himself; through Jesus Christ. Before I continue, I must share a mystery with you that I hope moves you to not only read all of these articles but also to seek God (before I say any thing else, I thank God for these revelations so that I may in part it on to you). When God created Man (which in the Hebrew language means Adam), man (or mankind) was created in God’s image which gives mankind the name Adam…And When Moses asked , “...And they ask me, ‘what is his name?’ then what shall I tell them?” God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM… (Exodus 3:13b - 14a). [Now the Mystery] If we were to take the word Adam and put it in parts ,the message of this mystery could be clearly seen… Ad ( or add) + am ( or existence) = Adam (which mans God added another am to exist) When the God of heaven and earth created mankind He (God) created Adam, but not as fowls of the air or as wild animals, but as gods (small g!), Jesus Said,“ ...is it not written in your Law, ’I have said you are gods.” (John 10:34). Now you may say, “okay brother Kevin what are you saying.” Well, the point that I’m trying to make is that God did not just call you for salvation, but to exist as one of his Divine Sons or Daughters. But because of the fall of mankind God had to show his love for mankind through Christ (Colossians 1:12 - 23). It was the only way to redeem mankind back to himself as gods, as an I am (to exist)!Inclosing - I repeat, Salvation is not why God called us, but the avenue he used to redeem us back to himself; through Jesus Christ.When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all.

God’s Restoration Of all Things… God Restoring Mankind / God Restoring His Creation….
...When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all. (1st. Corinthians15:28) God has given us a sign of the times. There are two charts below that grant us to at least see how God is blessing us to understand the last days before they come to pass. Search the scriptures to see for yourself, that in these last days we may not know the exact date of the end times but we can notice the Signs of the times, to be forewarned to believe enough to get our house in order.
God Restoring Mankind...
The First Adam - Adam was a man created to show the outer image of God (and we are of his linage)
Fall of Mankind - The fall of mankind reveals how we can not live with out God's guidance.
The Flood - That flood covered the earth symbolized God's hand doing away with sinful man (mankind).
The Law - the commandments of God, reveals the divine standards of God, thats needed to obey his will.
The Second Adam (Christ) - Jesus The Son of God revealed God's character in the fullest, He is the second Adam in the flesh, but He is the first born of all creation. And He is God's way of restoring mankind back to himself.
God Restoring His Creation...
God's Creation - Christ is not coming back just for his people, but also for his creation on earth an in heaven.
The Last Days - The battle in the end days will be over God's creation (mankind and territory (flesh and spirit),
Fire From Heaven - Fire is one of God's greatest elements and with it he will clean up all things, visible and invisible.
God's Judgment - God's judgment will be based on mankind living according to God's law whether bad or good.
New Heaven & New Earth - In the end, of the beginning, all things will return back to God. But this time the corruptible will put on incorruptible, restoring all things to God forever. ----------------------------------------------------------- In faith, this is how you can know that you are saved and how to stay saved!

This is what God says about givers...
The Conclusion of the Whole Matter 9 Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs. 10 The Teacher searched to find just the right words, and what he wrote was upright and true. 11 The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails—given by one shepherd. 12 Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them. Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body. 13 Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. 14 For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil. Ecclesiastes 12: 9-14

At The Cross Roads...
1 There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.” 3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” 5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3:1-8
-------------------------------------------------------
1 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”
Luke 13:1-5

This is how you can know how to... Walking in the Spirit 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control.
Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Galatians 5:16-24
