You should put yourself the following questions: Are you  sincere in your heart in front of God and do you desire to support the biblical truth or you want to cover the Biblical truth because of your materialistic reasons, because of your desire of comfort or lack of desire of sacrifice for the duties estabilished by the Lord regarding childbearing ?

Me: Dear Brother, Thank you for your comments again. I am well aware of the truth of the bible so I do not need any reasons to twist the truth of the bible. I just want everyone to know truth but not human preaching or added external teaching.
I understood that you have many misunderstanding about what I was trying to communicate with you. Probably it would be a lot better, if we can take time to talk in telephone or you can visit me to talk again these issues. You don’t need to be afraid to talk with me, because I felt like you are afraid with me. When I called you last you did not receive. When I sent sms you do not respond me. Are you afraid of me? I am not your enemy, still I tell you that you are my a brother in Christ. You are most welcome to come to my house for talk.

You should understand the truth about childbearing, in 1 Timothy 2. 15 ''But the women will be saved through childbirthing – if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.'' It refers to physical children, and not to the spiritual. If we take it spiritually, and man can give birth to the spiritual children. ( Again the paradigm of salvation, '' woman will be saved'' she is not saved yet from the final persepective of reaching the heaven, the salvation is conditioned by our struggle, it is not a final process, as I mentioned it is a polisemantic meaning) But it is a literary perspective, otherwise Paul would not have mentioned in the context the noun ''woman'' and the pronoun ''she'' which refers to the woman. She refers to woman, it is feminine gender. Here it i not included man.

Me: I understand well she means she and woman means singular woman and women means plural women. If you want to make interpretation please make interpretation what means the word save and saved used in 1 timothy 2:15 and 1 Timothy 4:16 Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers.

Do you know the first commendsment given to people by God ? In Genesis, 1. 28 ''Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth.'' This is the first commendsment given people by God which means to increase in number and to fill the earth with children. That also means that it is forbidden by God to resort to birth control. What do people do in the current moment in Europe ? They don't fulfill this commendsment but contrarily, Europe is running out of humane population and it is substituded by abnormal, violent and murdurous people (this is the work of the devil to deceive Europeans who are nonviolent and not to have children, only 1-2, and the violent people who are violent and murdurous to have several children from several wives )  - this is the unique crisis of under population caused by the Sexual revolution which people undertook.

Me: Brother this is your personal or human interpretation, the interpretation which you made from Genesis 1:28 is not biblical. The commandment of God to multiply and fill the earth was specifically given to Adam and eve not every human being. If not, please show me one and single biblical proof that this commandment is given to every human beings on earth.
We know that God commanded Adam and Eve to multiply and fill the earth but, why did Adam and Eve  not have any children before they fell into sin? They had all possibility to have millions of kids and fill the Earth. They were sinless and made to live forever. Why did not they produce any kids before the fall? They stayed without child until they fell into sin, was not that sin to stay childless?
If the commandment of multiplying and filling the earth was meant for salvation of the woman Eve- why was this commandment given while she was sinless but not after she committed the sin? Was eve saved by child bearing of Cain, Abel, Seth and some other? Any answers of such questions?

You said that we should be proud of the fact violent people by emigrating will dominate Europe by their migration as a result of Europeans' birth control resulting 1-2 children per family and culminating with martyrdom of christianity. If it will take place and you practiced birth control and thouse who do it you will die of your guilt and their guilt, because you and they did not fullfil the first commendsment mentioned.

Me:  Your saying proves that you are really afraid of these violent Muslims who entered Europe because you are afraid of dying. Remember I have told you before as well that if Muslims are going to persecute and kill you and me, it is not because  we have less children but it is because of our faith in Christ –John 15: 20 Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. Matthew 10:22,2 timothy 3:12, Furthermore he told in Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
If persecution of torture and killing is expected for the believers or the followers of Christ, we all who say Christians should be ready even to die for the sake of Christ. If we are not ready we cannot be his disciples. Please read what Jesus said: Luke 14:27 And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.  Cross represents the death of a person and Carrying own cross means being ready to die. Jesus carried his own cross which means he knew he will die for the sinners and he was ready to die. John 19: 17 Carrying his (Jesus) own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18 There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.  Who were those who persecuted him? They were earthly people, the righteous people of the earth, the righteous Jews and roman soldiers. Why God allowed Jesus to be persecuted and died on cross? It is for our salvation.
Were all the apostles ready to die on the hands of violent people for the sake of Christ? Yes they were, except John the brother of James, who died naturally, all were martyred. Paul said he was ready to die for the sake of Christ. Acts 21: 13 Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.” Why does God allow Christians to die on the hand of persecutors? Basically for two reasons- one is because God wants to test our faith. Second is to accomplish his plans through the deaths.
You are saying that if Christians will not bear many children, then Muslims will occupy Europe and they will persecute us and kill us. Your intention behind getting many children is to compete with Muslims in population and supress them but not for to bring glory to God. Where in the bible is mentioned that the will of God after bearing many children is to supress the number of Muslims or violent people? Do you really want to live like Muslims live? If you have this faith please go ahead and live like them!
Do you remember what Jesus said in Matthew 13:24-30 parables of wheat and weeds? Vs. 30 let both grow together until the harvest!... and who are these weeds? Are they not sons of evil?(37-39). Who allowed evil people to be with us? Is that you and me or God? Of course God! If he allowed these evil people to grow then how can we supress them and remove then out of our place? No, it is only God who can supress them or destroy them but not us. In Europe many Muslims migrated, why? Is that because of you and me? No, it is because The Government gave permission them to reside. Why God allowed the evil people to reside in Europe, God has a purpose over everything. Was pharaoh not cruel? Did God not raise him for a good purpose?- Romans 9:7 Do you think that you can make Europe a better place, a place without evil people? If you think please go ahead. But I know you can’t. Unless God does you can do nothing. But remember more what Jesus said, in the end time there will be wars… Matthew 24:6, Are we not living in the last days? If there are no evil people, how is it possible to be wars and rumours of wars?

Many times you said that we did good deeds to show people that we had love for others. The Bible teaches us to do good deeds in secret Matthew 6. verses 3-4 « But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand let know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your father who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. »

Me: Brother this is your misunderstanding of the message which I wrote to you. I have told you that our good works are to be seen by other people for the glory of God, but not to be proud of how good you did or how good you are! You mentioned the verses from Matthew 6:3-4, but what is the context of this verse? Why did Jesus tell to give in secrete? It is because people like to show to other people how good they are and be proud of their righteousness. If that is the intention behind your giving, then don’t do that rather give in secrete! This is what Jesus simply said. What do you mean by good deed? Is that only giving to the needy? No there are many other godly things which can be thought, spoken and done. All of them are good deeds. Do you believe that you are light of the world?( Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.) if you are light, what is the light supposed to do? Isn’t it supposed to shine? To shine where? Under the table? No- the light shall shine before men! Please read Matthew 5: 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Do you see the reason why we should shine before other people? Isn’t it for the glory of God?
Let us think further, What does this light represent? Does not the word of God say the light of the people is the life Jesus had? Please read John 1:4, Do you believe that the life of Jesus is in you now? I don’t know what you believe, but I believe I have. Paul said that Christ lives in him –Galatians 2:19-20, I believe the same. If Christ lives in us, his life should be revealed in our body, in our living . 2cor. 4:10, The life of Christ should not be hidden in us! The life of Christ is full of good thought, good messages, good deeds. They are to be revealed and seen by other for God’s glory. If we do not live the life of Christ, how shall people know that we are Christians? Can people see inside the hearts of Christians without visible evidence? Please read: John 13:35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 15:8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. Whatever we do, let our true attitudes, gentleness or the fruit be evident to everyone for his glory!( Philippians 4:5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near)

The Bible speaks about good deeds thousends of times, more than baptism, grace, and other things.
Me: Nothing wrong in bible which speaks of 1000 times good deeds!

3. For nothing, you try to persuade me and other persons that it is right to practice birth control  God sees your heart and your intentions. God sees if you are in interested in entering the strait gate, or if you desire only the truth or you intend to cover the truth in order to support your earthy interests to be free, to be comfortable, without famlily obligation which God asigned to everyone who marry. Anyway the truth remains truth, you cannot change it.

Me:Dear brother, I neither changed the truth nor I tried to change the truth or somebody. It is your misunderstanding that I tried to change the truth. However I want everyone to know the truth. I have never told you that it is right or wrong to practice birth control in our conversations. Please don’t impose lies over me. Simply I have said that the number of children of a family depends on their personal faith, relationship with God and situations. It is because the commandment of being multiplied and filling the earth is not meant for every human being. Nobody in the New Testament taught that every human being shall have many children and fill the earth. If filling the earth was the biggest necessity and commandment to everyone on this earth, please tell me why did Paul wish all men being like him single? Read 1 Cor. 7:7-8,26-28. If what Paul told here is the truth, then you reject this truth of Paul with your understanding and saying.

The things are very clear, certain category of Christians, especially the Western Christians copied the birth control from Sexual Revolution 1960. Before that time no body practiced birth control, and you try to find Biblical arguments by distorting the Biblical verses with help of other verses which has no connction between them. The apostols did not practice birth control. You can read the history of the church. And all the christians did not practice it til Sexual Revolution. It is almost 2000 years. The Bible say that in the lattest days there will be many heresies, as we are in the lattest days. You grant no respect the former generation who paid with blood the message of the gospel.

Me: Why are you talking again and again the birth control and sexual revolution? I have nothing to do with sexual revolution and I don’t want to spend time for which is not my interest and which does not have any profit.

You can ask your parents-in-law, how many children had every family in their generation.
People who support the idea of birth control will always have only 1-2 children. If the old generation had had the same attitude, then David would not have existed, since he is tenth child born in his family. Also, Jesus had six brothers.

Me:Brother if you want to follow how your grandfather did, how they lived, if your faith says you to do that, please go ahead and live according to your faith. If you can not manage to live according what you believed, then you will be judged by your faith. I personally do not follow the life style of my forefather, but of Jesus and his disciples. All the people of the earth they followed Adam and Sin entered through Adam to all because all did sin! Because they followed people not God! Please read Romans 5:12, I do not want to be the same. I will walk in the path of Jesus and in his spirit.

You were recently at the church in Lyngdal in a sunday, if you could have understood Romanian, you would have heard that the sermons of thouse 3 brothers who preached were mainly about the false teaching of birth control how people imported this false teaching from the sinful wordly movements.

Me: Dorin could not translate everything about what was being preached. But I understood their understanding through my wife about children. Well if you talk about true and false teaching, the truth should be measured by the biblical parameters.  if someone says something is true just because they think so, I don’t accept such truths based on human understanding or thoughts. Some people think that physical children which we bear are God’s heritage or eternal blessing based on wrong understanding of Psalm 127:3-5. Some truth is hidden in this passage, I believe just the truth not human thoughts. The truth is the children whom we bear physically are a blessing from god but this blessing is not eternal blessing, just an earthly blessing. This blessing will be eternal only when our children receive Christ in their life.  If you will have 15 children and if they will go to hell where is your blessing then? your blessing remains only for the earth not for the heaven. Therefore I say, it is not how many children you could bear, but it is how many children of you came to Christ, decides whether you are blessed eternally or not.

Jesus ordered us to do charitable deeds. It is written in Matthew 25. 33-46. Jesus continuously criticised the people who did not do good deeds. Jesus did good deeds to all people. Also, one of the first fruit of repentance are good deeds (Luke 3.11), proclaimed by John the baptist.

Me: I have not said you that Jesus did not tell people to do good and also I have not said that we should not bear the fruit of repentance. Therefore I agree with you here.
As regard type of interpretation of theology, you got the message of salvation from Western christians, which are liberal, they changed drastically unlike their parents and grand-parents. There are still few old Western christians who deplore the spiritual situation of the Western churches which are spiritually degraded. You have inspired from them and you think through their eyes and you try to find Biblical arguments to justify their liberalism.

Me: Brother whatever you said here is a lie. I do not go after any people or denomination to understand the message of bible like you are used to. I just read bible, meditate on it day and night, the Holy Spirit reveals me his truth. I have already told you that I do not have anything to do western or Romanian or eastern theology. I know these theologies do not save me. I just care what it is revealed in the bible. If I say something as truth I speak from bible not from outside. Please do not throw me into the group which I do not belong to!
It is sad that some christians from Romania and other countries who originate from the church with good teaching are agree partially or totally with the spiritually degraded teaching of the Norwegians or even go to Norwegian churches, or they make Norwegian friends in order to get materialistic advantages, and thus little by litte they change their good teaching from their country with sinful culture and sinful mode of living and they become asimilated like them. In other words they compromise their true faith with liberal and false faith taken from Norwegians for the materialistic things.  

Me: You tried to judge people’s action but you did not judge right. Therefore you need to read what Jesus said. John 7:24 Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly.”
Is it wrong to go to Norwegian church? Is it wrong to make Norwegian friend? Why did you come to Norway? Is that only to earn money? If so then you are serving not Christ but money.
Do You think you are only the true Christian and other are not? You think only the Christians from Romania are going to heaven and other to hell? Where in the bible does say so? Can you tell me, how many Christians in Romania are corrupt? How many Christians in Romania are divorced, adulterous, liars, murderers? How many Christians in Romania are ready to die for Christ? How many Christians in Romania went out to preach the gospel, make disciple and baptize new people entering the kingdom of god? If you can give me the proof that Christians from Romania are blameless in those things, then I will agree with what you have said about it. Otherwise it is just a lie but you still believe as truth.

If you are interested in the Biblical truth, you can find correct interpretations of the Bible from the church where your wife grew.
Me: Brother only the false teacher or false Christians say that truth is here and there, Christ is here and there. The true Christians say that truth is in the word of God -John 17:17 and in Jesus Christ.

You are always defending birth control which you learned from thouse who communicated you the message of gospel and they took it from Sexual revolution 1960. If the Sexual revolution 1960 had had not taken place, nobody would have thought of practicing birth control.
Me: You lie here as well. When did I defend the birth control? You are blaming me that I learnt from this and that.. How did you know such thing which I never told to you? If you want to know the truth, I never knew about the sexual revolution before you told me! I have never desired to know this topic even after you told to me because I do not have something to do with it.

They did not take it from Bible. If you fear the Lord you woluld read this two psalm 128 and 127 attentively about childbearing the Psalm 127 and 128 exemplify very clear the literal truth about childbearing. And Psalm 128. 3-4 « your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots round your table. This is the man blessed by who fears the Lord. You have not read them attentively til now. »
Me: Brother if you think you alone read bible and other did not, then you have a problem in your head!

As regard Liberal theology and strait gate, you must read about these phenomena. As mentioned, do not be sad but you are not familiar with many realities which happens in Europe and in world. Again you do not understand what is literature and linguistics. You should find out what is paradigmatics.
Why do you exclude the explantions of Jesus in the parable of the sheep and goats (Matthew 25, verses 33-46 regarding the reasons for which Jesus separated the goats from sheep and you come with your own explanations which are not in text ?. Jesus explains clear that goats did not do good deeds. Why do you distort the Biblical verses with other verses taken from other contexts which have no connection with the context of the parable of sheep and goats. The same you also did with explations of the strait gate. It is simple to understand: conservative churches go on the strait gate, the liberal churches go on the wide gate:

Me: I see you know the best out of the bible but still you can not understand the truth. You are like the Pharisee who search the scripture day and night but does not know what the truth is and accept the truth.  You just know to blame other, accuse other telling he/she is false and their teaching or faith is false but you do not know to explain with perfect meaning and context. I did not use my own word to explain but bible itself to explain the text still you do not understand, what can I do? Pease pray to god that he will provide Holy Spirit for you to understand.

Matthew 7. 13-14 Enter through narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the gate that leads to life, and anly a few find it. Pay attention how few people are today still conservative and do not practice birth control.
You are very confused as regards the sin. Hebrew 10. 26 '' If we deliberatelly keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sin is left. '' It is understood very clear that whatever if somebody is low spiritual or strong and if he/she commit adultery or badly sins cannot receive forgiveness from the Lord. You do not understand that this movement of teaching that every sin is forgiven is false.

Me: Who said that I am confused with this verse? Neither I said that to you nor I am confused. May be devil is communication with you.  When did I say that every sin committed after being a true Christian is forgiven? Rather I have told you from bible that the one born again Christian will never keep on practicing sin. 1 John 5:18 We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them Born again Christian will never blasphemy holy spirit. If someone so called Christian does such sins will not be forgiven.

Read 2 Peter chapter 2, verses 20, 21 and 22.
Those who associate with Lutheran churches in which women are priests and they preach do not do good. You know this is not biblical. Or you, at most verses in Bible, struggle to misinterpret in order to justify certain false doctrines and heresies.

Me: Brother, please do not do the job of Satan because only the worker of satan does this job. You just blame without any right judgment, right proofs, the proof from bible. You think many things are wrong because you just think so. Your thought is not God’s. Know the thought of God first and then say which is right or wrong. If you really want to keep yourself away from such sinners then you are not supposed to be on earth. You are supposed to be in heaven aren’t you? Why are you here on earth, have you thought about it? Why did Jesus come on earth among sinners, have you thought about that? If you see something is wrong in Lutheran church, as a Christian, your responsibility is to go there, be friend and correct the wrong, why don’t you do that? But for you it is very easy to say he is sinner, she is sinner, than doing good, right? If you hear an interpretation from human mind , you say that is right and if you allow bible itself to speak then it is wrong? Brother awake, this is work of devil! Jesus was also blamed by Pharisees that he did devils work in Matthew 12:24 while he was working God’s work. If I allow bible, The God’s word to interpret a topic, then you say it is misinterpretation or wrong! Clear for me that this is from devil.

It is not wise to post on your blog what we discuss. The lining is washed inside. Do you think that these things build other people ?

Me: I have a good reason to post in the blog and this is my private reason. If someone got hurt or not built spiritually from my sayings, let me know please, I will remove

It is good to seek in the history of the Western churches to see how many children they had before the Sexual revolution 1960. If you are interested in truth.
Me: I see forward not backward. If there is something essential truth which I must learn, I see, otherwise I don’t. I give the Bible, God’s word the first priority.

If you practice birth control, you prevent the birth of some souls who God intends to come on earth. It is good to repent of it in order to get forgiveness. It is also good to seek the truth, be humble, and repent of what it is not good.

Me: It is my private thing, that I am not supposed to share with anyone except God and my wife. You should not worry of my private thing. You do not need to know what I do and what I do not do in the bed. God knows very clear. That is enough. If you have seen that I have used pills, or vaccines, or aborted kids with your eyes, then come to me and we can talk about it otherwise there is no other reason to talk with you about such private issues.

Finally pay attention to this verses 2 Peter 3. 15-16 ''Bear in mind that our Lord's patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote to you with wisdom that God gave him. He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own distruction.'' in order not deceive yourself and others.

Me: I am very aware of God’s word. 2 Peter 3:15-16 is true. You mean I should pay attention because I have distorted scripture? If you think so please think yourself first then think of me or other the second . Jesus saved us sinner with his blood, but you insist that man is saved by faith plus deed and you miss value blood of Jesus. You have insulted the grace and the spirit of grace saying we have to obey laws to be saved! You preach different gospel than Paul preached. Paul said that the gospel which is different than his is not gospel at all! Read Galatioans chapter 1, 2 and 3. He explained so simple, why still you can not understand?
You support the idea that every sin can be forgiven, inclusive adultury. It is fals. In Matthew 12.31 …. « every sin and blasphemy will be fogiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. » It refers to the unfaithful men which are not yet repented, not to the people who started the way of salvation. Again this is a matter of different context. This is matter of paradigmatics which studies different contexts.

Me: I have not said that if you keep on committing adultery, the sin of adultery will be forgiven, but I have said if someone repents truly, all sins except the sin of blasphemy of holy spirit will be forgiven. Please read 1 John 1:9

As regard sin: whatever sobody is weak or strong spiritual. He / she cannot be forgiven, if one sins deliberately after he / she came to repetance by being baptised. 2 Peter 2.21.''It would have been better for them not known the rightniousness.''

Me: Brother before you say this you should think first who you are. If you are honest with yourself, tell me one thing. Did you know something in your mind good to do but you did not do? Is that a sin according to word of God? Please read James 4:17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them. How many times didn’t you do good which you were supposed to do? One time, two times, 4 times or more?  Sin is sin. Do you think your sin of not doing good is forgiven? How many times did you do wrong doing in your life? Is not all wrongdoing sin?  One time, two time, three times or more? If you have done many times after knowing Christ, sin is sin then your sins are not forgiven!! I don’t think you are perfect man. If you think you are a perfect man without doing errors in life, then I have right word, right judgement for you, that you are a Pharisee, hypocrite of our time. You do not have truth in you. Please read 1 John 1:8

Devil's plan is to deceive the faithful by believing that all the sins are forgiven so that they may sin and to live a life with no difference unlike the world.
Me: Did I teach some one that one should live in sin? If I have said please give me proof.

As regards who sins grave sins such as adultery deceives himself that cannot be forgiven. In Luke 6. 46 Jesus speaks clear of two kinds of built houses: on the sand and on the rock. Matthew 7.21 « Not everyone who say to me,  Lord Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only who does the will of my father who is in heaven. » So it happens to those commit adultery after came to repetance.

Me: Let us imagine ,If you live a life being adulterous all your life after declaring that you are a Christian, then you are not a true Christian, if you are not true Christian, then your sins are not forgiven, it is so simple to understand. You are still stumbling on the same point. But if you have committed such sin when you did not know God or if you did such sin just once without intention but because of weakness in flesh, if that person repents truly, the sin is forgiven this is what I said.

Put yourself another question sincere in front of God: do you not really belong to this category of people ?  2 Timothey 3.7 « always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth. »

Me: What about you brother? Did you judge yourself with this verse?, I see you are the one who does not understand the word of God and acknowledge the truth. I just put the words of God in every saying as proof but you say false, wrong etc.  who can say wrong or false to the word of God? Only devil and his followers.

Also, 2 Timothey 4. 3-4 « For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside the myths. »

Me: I know this verse well. I do not have any teachers around me except Bible and Holy spirit, but I saw you have number of teachers around you.  The teachers from Romania, teachers from lyndal and so called holy spirit guided preacher. Please think about yourself, if you are just holding the gospel of Jesus which Paul preached or not!

Bible continuosly warns us about the heresies and false teaching in the lattest days. Do you consider you have more light than the old people who taught us the faith ?

Me: Which old people you are talking about? Old man from Romania? I believe that neither me, neither you nor old people of Romania have more light. It is holy spirit who has the light of the scripture.  If God wants he can make a child also wiser than any other people. Revelation of God’s word does not depend up on how old you are or how long you have served for God! It completely depends up on God whom he wants to be wise. Within two years of conversion of Paul into Christianity, God revealed many truths and secrets into depth to him. It was not his experience but holy spirit taught him.

Not at all, the current young generations are less and less enlightened. The situation is exactly like in Judges 2.10 «  After that whole generation had been gather to their fathers, another generation grew up, who knew neither the Lord, nor what he had done for Israel. » You can search in Bible to see what happened with this generation, it seems to happen exactly with Europe.
Be careful about the teaching you give to the people because you will be responsable, you have more responsability than a doctor has with his patients, since you implicate in a work which is with souls of people.

Me: I am careful with my teaching brother. I wish everyone who realized themselves as sinners be saved through repentance, by faith in lord Jesus Christ. I do  not wish any one to be in hell and I do not teach them to go to hell. It is you who teaches that salvation depends up on our good deed, therefore your teaching rejects the grace and insults the spirit of grace. Please be careful. If some one goes to hell because of your teaching the punishment will be severe!

When you will go to the coutry of your wife, you can learn true faith from brothers from the church from there.

Me: Thank you for the suggestion: I have told you, that I do not see people to find the truth, I see god, Jesus, Holy spirit to know the truth. That is my first priority. People my second priority.

Let us be biblical:
The barren woman has another rôle to be saved. The woman is saved by childbearing is a hyperbole. It expresses an exaggerated truth which emphasizes the importance of this. Certainly, it is not enough; the woman has to fulfil many other rules and good deeds. This is a debt for a woman who is married and not barren.
Comment: I want to know other rules and good deeds for a woman that saves her. Please if you have time write for me.
In Luke 23:27-28. Jesus referred to the context of Jerusalem s destroyance by Roman empire which was going to happen. It happened in 70 AD. It was better for women who were barren because their children were mercilessly killed by Romnas. But this cannot be applied for the all context of history of humankind. Otherwise it would have been a recommandation from God that human spiece shal not reproduse and extinguish.
Commnet:  Brother you said Jesus said that in the context of War with Jerusalem by romans. It is fulfilled already and can not be applied now – do you mean that there will not be anymore war with Jerusalem? If it was on the context of war, will there not be wars in our time? If it is just related with war and killing by Romans, why Jesus had to tell these women to weep for themselves and their children? Did not Jesus teach them not to fear to those who kill body? (Read Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.) Could romans destroy their childrens souls? Then why to cry?
There ar a lot rules, laws and Biblical principles in New Testament. The Biblical researchers hold that there are several hundreds of commandments. You can read all the New Testament from the beginning til end and you will find many. Sorry for not having time to explain more about it. It is a long disscusion. Regarding salvation by good deeds is explained in the whole chapter 2 of James.
Comments: Are you able to keep absolutely all the laws like you said which are mentioned in the new testaments? If you miss one of the laws what happens? Read the verse from James chapter 2 which you recommended so much to support your idea, verse 10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. My brother let us think practically. I want to be honest with you and God. I declare that I am not able to keep all the laws of bible. Even if I try my best I will miss one or the other because I am not perfect yet like Jesus. If I can not fulfil one small law then I am a whole law breaker. According to bible the one who breaks law is a sinner (1 john 3:4). The punishment or the wage of sin is DEATH (Romans 6:23)! I don’t know if you are perfect man like Jesus who can keep all the laws. If you cannot keep then you are a sinner like me. And also all the wrong doing is sin(1 John 5:17). Brother do you do sometimes wrong in your life? If you do wrong in your life, you are a sinner. Therefore we all want to be good or righteous people. We all want to do good but we cannot manage to keep doing good all the time. Therefore we deserve death. I don’t see any possibility of getting eternal life by obeying laws or doing good deeds! Therefore we need someone to rescue from this state that we are impossible to purchase our salvation! That rescuer is Jesus and his favour is called grace or mercy. Therefore I want to declare again like Paul told to every one of us, I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!” Galatians 2:21.  Out of two we should choose one. Either we are saved by Grace or saved by obeying law. If you agree that you are saved by the grace of God but on the other hand you insist to tell people that we should obey laws to be saved then it is nothing more than insulting the grace of God! Please remember what it will happen to those who insult the grace of God (Hebrews 10:29)

Luke 18:18-30, It lacked him(young rich ruler) the first two commandments of law to love God and your naghbour from your all heart and power. This young rich man belonged to the party of pharises who boast of high level of spirituality. The reality was another.

Comment: You gave me an incomplete answer of my question. In this story, Rich man wanted to be sure of his salvation. That is why he came to Jesus and asked what he should do to go to heaven. Jesus answered him step by step. First step was to obey the commandments. He answered he did that. Then Jesus told him the next step that He shall sell his all property and give money to poor. Then he did not say that he will go to heaven by doing that but he gave further 3rd step. My question to you was, was it not enough for this man to obey God’s law and  to do good work out of the possession he owned to enter the kingdom of God?

Question: How could the 2nd criminal who repented at the cross before his death be saved at the same moment that day if belief in Jesus alone was not necessarily enough?( Luke 23:39-43) Answer: The criminal had a very short period of time from the moment he received salvation til he died. It was very important that he believed in Jesus, although he was in great agony. He did not have oportunity to do more than to believe in Jesus and bear crossification with belief he will be saved in heaven.

Comment: Brother here you came on my point! This criminal was saved by his faith in Jesus. Your point before was that we need both Faith and good works to be saved and faith alone is not enough and it cannot save a person. But you have seen yourself that in some cases people have been saved by Faith alone (faith was not expressed into action). Therefore your opinions of salvation contradict here. Show me one verse or one saying of Jesus from the bible that tells that a person can be saved by deed alone! Rather bible says that if a person does anything out of his faith sins (Romans 14:22-23). Here faith is counted so much than deeds. Therefore the importance of faith is so much more than the acts of people. Without a good act people can please God but without faith people can never please God (Hebrews 11:6)

As I mentioned last time. The word salvation is a polisemantic term which implies more different meanings which often creates confusions. The polisemantic terms stem from one meaning but once the evolution of the word developes in more meanings which are alike with the first meaning from the root of the term implying some differences. For example salvation is a long process which is not finished til the final destination. Let us say as in the case of Titanic castaway people were traveling in ocean and happens to them a castaway, their ship gets crashed and a part of people were saved by help of small boats. Is it a final salvation ? They had to row by wisdom and fullfil some norms to be saved til the shore. The same thing, it is a difference between the salvation which a man who repents of his sins gets free salvation from Jesus s sacrifice and from now on til his death it depends on him if he fullfil the objectives traced by God.

Comment: We are human beings and we think like humans, we become many times wrong when we think like humans but we need to think like how God thinks then we shall not be wrong. It is not me but Jesus says this, Read here
John 10:26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. 27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. The one who is in Jesus meaning those who continue in genuine faith, the one who is chosen by God will never loose their salvation brother. This is the eternal security we have in Christ my brother. In your story you said after a crash of a ship you get into a small boat and got saved from big accident but it is not final salvation till you reach to shore you need to do something on your behalf! In human understanding you are right. But in biblical understanding, in that little boat we should not forget that Jesus will also be with us, and he will be the one to lead us to the safe place! When Jesus is with us we are 100% safe brother no matter how long we should go ahead.

In the parables of the mines(Luke 19. 11), God entrusted his slaves some mines to trade them and gain double from their trade, they were free, but God asks us the same thing, we are getting free salvation from Jesus, but we must continue our salvation obeying many rules, including good deeds. The faith is one of the piece of salvation, equally with the following vers. This is another piece in the frame of salvation: But women will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety? 1 Timothy 2:15

Comment: In this parable, minas cannot be compared with eternal life which we get from Jesus. When Jesus gave eternal life as a free gift, he did not give to some more and to some less eternal life! He gave the same eternal life to everyone! The minas can be compared the things which we get from God as free except eternal life. For example God gives us different spiritual gifts, talents, physical blessings, properties, your kids etc. God gives them to be protected and multiplied. God gives these things to us and not just to Christians but to non-Christians too. All will be judged according to their deeds in the last day(2 Cor . 5:10). When God will test the works of Christians and non-Christians before the time of punishment, all the works will be revealed. But the true Christians who live by faith in Jesus Christ even if they will lose rewards will never suffer the wrath in hell (1 cor. 3:13-14).  True Christians have escaped the wrath (1 Thes. 5:9).

Hebrew, chapter 6, we can see some people who commited grave sins and missed their salvation. The salvation can be missed. That° s why, it°s two type of salvation. Again, in James 2, it is explained that faith and good deeds are two components which are dependant on one another in the process of salvation.

Comment: Jesus is our shepherd. If we remain in him and if we follow him even if someone wants to take us and destroy us, Jesus will never allow that to happen to us. But after knowing Jesus accepting him in life Christians still have right to change their masters! Jesus never forced someone to believe him. Definitely if someone choses wrong master, the salvation will be lost! But the problem here is neither the salvation whether it will be gained forever or not nor about deeds but it is about the types of people and choice. There are two types of Christians, a true Christians and fake Christians. True Christians will never fall back from faith. Job was true believer. He never fell back in faith. But there are many fake Christians; they are the one who usually fall back. It is very difficult to awake to those who act like they are sleeping i.e false christians. About achieving salvation, like you said Faith and deeds goes together, but our deeds can never purchase salvation. If our acts are supposed to purchase salvation, then we all Christians should work for ourselves because we need salvation. Then we cannot work for God. We will be selfish worker, just working for your own purpose. This ideology goes beyond biblical principle.(Romans 14:6,8, 1 Corinthians 10:31). Whatever we do we do it for God and his glory, not for ourselves!

Question: Why did Jesus say to the sinful women in Luke 7:36-50 that her faith has saved her instead of crediting her action? Answer: Is she entered the heaven ? No, it depended on her faith and facts plus good deeds further til her death.
Comment: When did Jesus tell here that she will not enter to heaven and she needs to do good works further to be saved? What does her faith has saved her mean?
Question: What I have understood from your writing is that what Jesus did is not enough to be saved and we should also do something or sacrifice to obtain it. The Bible speak about our sacrifice in Romans 12
Comment: Roman 12 talks about living sacrifice, but where is it written that that living sacrifice is to gain salvation?
Question: Why did rich man go to hell? Is it because he did not help the poor lazarus? I don’t think so. Let’s see the response what his father Abraham says, 29 Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; they should listen to them.’ Answer: But the law of Moses and prophets also includes many rules to do good deeds.
Comment: Read John 5:39-40,46, Jews thought that obeying these rules they will find salvation but they did not see Jesus in the scripture to so that they could get salvation through him.
First, you must understand the language and literature, means of expression: methaphor, metonimies, iron, hyperbols. In Isaiah 54:1, God uses an situational irony forcasting the unfortunate situations for women and children in the context of future adversity for Israel implying: war, slavery, and forced migration in other countries. It was better for barren women because that children were going to fall victims in tribulations. This happened due to their sins
Comment: Brother I want to encourage you to be biblical than the philosophical for fake ideologies. If you know the true meaning, true context please explain well. Jesus told to the people who followed him not to be afraid of those who kill their body, Why they had to cry just because of war?


Monday, June 9, 2014

Here comes my reply to your last email:

As you said we Christians got salvation free and we do not have to do anything to be saved. Many times I mentioned that Linguistics plays a central role in understanding Bible. For many people the language is a confusion when they do not want to understand the strait gate of the Bible. The salvation depends on us.Jesus offered us salvation free, but we must comform to his teachings, orders, commandsments, Biblical principles, etc.

Me:Yes salvation depends on us and it is only on our decision whether to believe in Christ as lord and saviour or not but it does not depend upon our actions or good deeds.

If you look up a word in dictionary, you will see how many meanings, senses and connotations a word has. The linguistics has in its structure many branches: one of them which is very important is semantics and semiotics. The word salvation has more meanings. One with reference to the forgiveness from our sinful past by grace, mercy, by sacrifice of Jesus at cross.

Me:So do you mean the sacrifice of Jesus is only for the forgiveness of sins before one comes to faith in Jesus and not for the future sins? That means the sacrifice of Jesus at cross is not enough for the future sins of a person. Brother what if a weak Christian commits a sin once for example adultery after believing in Christ? Will there be forgiveness of this sin without Jesus? How does God forgive our each and every sins? Isn’t that through the blood of jesus? 1John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin . Is there forgiveness of sin without bloodshed? Hebrews 9:22 In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
How many times did Jesus die at cross? Only once or many times? (Romans 6: 9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. Hebrews 9:28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.)

If the truth is that Christ died just once for all sins and can not die again and his death and blood is obligatory for remission of sins then conclusion is Christ died for the sins of past, present and future at once for all except for the sin of blasphemy of holy spirit. If this is the truth, then what you have said is a lie brother. Because you said the sacrifice of Jesus at cross gives the forgiveness from our past only.

Another sense if we follow Jesus's teachings to be saved to the end to enter the heaven, and not in the hell.  In the teachings and parables of Jesus it is clear described that the salvation depends on us. A good example is the parable of mines, Jesus showed us category of people that God offered salvation free, but they were lazy, sinful or indiffrent over God's plan of salvation.Luke 19: 13-26

Me:I see that you understand from this parable that salvation is based upon our deeds but I understand quite different than you. Let us judge our understanding with the revelation of spirit.
This parable was told on the way to Jerusalem to correct the misunderstanding of kingdom of God because many thought and expected that kingdom of God would come immediately and through Jesus – Luke 19:11! Jesus earlier told to disciples and other  Pharisees that kindom of God does not come with human observation –Luke 17:20-21.

This parable talks about different aspects and important concepts of kingdom of God.
The king represents Jesus himself. Two types of people mentioned. Three servants and other enemies who did not accept Jesus to be their king,Out of three servants, the third servant represents fake and unfruitful servant. The third servant was fake because he did not have love for the king. He was afraid of the king from whom he got the mina to  invest. The fear was ruling all over him. He was afraid of investing mina. He was afraid that if he would loose mina, he would be in danger and be punished. Because of that fear he took good care of it without investing till the King returns. The fear of this servant proves that he did not love his master truly -1John 4:18. Anyone who does not love his/her master above than any other thing is fake, false servant or disciple –Luke 14:26-27. Jesus also had one fake disciple out of 12, Jesus knew it from before but he used even this fake servant to fulfil God’s plan over him. The actions are the outcomes of who we really are!

Human judges a person based on the deeds because we are not able to see the hearts or the inner faith and thoughts of a person unless they produce some visible fruits. But for God it is crystal clear the minds, thoughts and hearts of a person. Everything of us in the past , present and future is visible for God –Hebrews 4:13. The beginning of change in us is from heart and mind. Either holiness or sin all begins from the heart or the mind. The newness of our life, the newness being in Christ begins from the new heart -(Matthew 15:19-20,James 1:14-15). Transformation in life or good fruit comes after renewing the mind or hearts –Romans 12:2,Paul said to Galatians ‘Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is the new creation. Galatians 6:15.Jesus said in Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.’

The minas which were given to three servants with different amount do not represent either the eternal life or salvation. It can mean talents, spiritual gifts, money and propertis, love, opportunities etc which we get free from God. Definitely God is going to reveal everything what we have done while we were in body at the day of Judgement. God does not need our actions to know who we are because God can know our hearts and motives without examining our deeds but God is going to expose our deeds to reveal the truth who we are to everyone and to test our actions by fire. We being Christians, our deeds are related with the rewards and our faith of the heart related with salvation of the soul. Prizes or rewards are based on how good or best you do (1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.) but eternal life is a free gift by grace and mercy of God in Jesus christ our Lord(Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.). It is not the wage what you deserve because of your good deeds! Therefore Paul says to Corinthians a principle that even a Christian will lose a reward or suffer loss at what he/she had done in earthly life, will be saved (1 cor. 3:12-15)

Here in the parable of minas, the two servants who were true servants did good job and finally received what they deserved. This parable encourages us to invest and increase what we have received freely for Him. The third servant who got a mina from a master finally without any investment returned the same amount to The king. Concerning this man Jesus said in verse 26 of Luke 19, ‘To everyone who has , more will be given, as for the one who has nothing even what he has will be taken away’. This makes a sense that the third servant had nothing which was very essential and he was given just a mina. The thing which he did not have, made him to be lazy. The thing which he did not have with him was the living faith. He believed that the king is very strict and because of that he got fear. His faith was dead faith because even demons have dead faith. Demons believe that God is only one and afraid of him(James 2:19)The servants who became faithful to the king got more responsibilities in heaven and more authorities, and these are just rewards and these ten cities does not represent eternal life. To use this bible text from Luke 19:13-26 to show that our good deeds according to the bliblical laws are obligatory to enter into heaven is only the misuse and misinterpretation of the context.

Another example which shows us that the salvation is free from the side of God, but from our side that we must make efforts to be saved. Mathew 7: 13-14“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Me:What does this Narrow gate mean? Jesus himself said in John 10:9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. Matthew 7:13-14 does not talk about our effort to go to heaven rather it talks about narrow gate which is Jesus alone(John 14:6)

In Philippians 2: 12, it is clear seen that the salvation is a process which will be ended in the heaven and depends on us. "Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose".
'
Me:Yes salvation is in a way process because it includes justification, sanctification and glorification. The work of salvation will be complete when we will be in heaven together with God. Till that time it is a process. But we have received eternal life through faith now and we will have eternal life in heaven without faith. Faith is not necessary when you yourself can see and experience completely in heaven. Here Paul encourages to Philippians in chapter 2:12-13 to work out the salvation. There is a difference between work out and work for.  Paul did not say them to work for the salvation but instead he said work out your salvation meaning exercise your salvation with fear and trembling. Fear and trembling represents heartfelt respect. All Christians should know that the true Christians will exercise salvation and bear fruits and they should judge themselves whether they are true Christians or not. To exercise driving you need to have a car in the same way to exercise salvation we need to have salvation that comes to us through faith.

Jesus said to Zacchaeus in Luke 19:9 salvation has come to this house because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. Before he believed in Jesus he was not the son of Abraham, he was living a sinful life. When he came to know Jesus he loved him and believed him from heart. His faith made him son of Abraham(Galatians 3:7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham) His living faith caused salvation come to him. The living faith and the salvation which came in him changed his mind and he determines to do good deeds. The salvation to zacchaeus did not come because of his good actions otherwise Jesus would have told him , ‘Good Zacchaeus! what you thought to do is  really good. Do that then salvation will come to you’ .

The our salvation depend not only the good deeds, but on the patience too: Matthew 10: 22 "You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved."

Me:The context here is not about spiritual salvation it is about deliverance from suffering or persecution physically because of faith in Christ(Matthew 10:21-23). Jesus taught this to his disciples to be faithful or to stand firm till the end. It is a kind of promise that he will deliver them from all pains in the end!
Again, I say to you that our salvation is dependant on good deeds.

Me:Brother it is only your saying but not the real saying of bible:

James 2: 14-26

Me: Brother,It looks like that this passage is your theological hobby horse to support that deed is necessary to be saved. All the interpretations are meaningless unless we interpret this passage based on the context and in the biblical revelation (allowing bible itself to interpret).
James most probably the brother of Jesus or  the brother of John writes this letter addressing the Jewish nation(twelve tribes) who got converted to Christianity.(James 1:1 and 2:1)

He had to write this letter to correct the faith and problems due to lack of maturity in Christianity and finally to assist them to be mature Christians. –James 3:2
The problems which show the spiritual immaturity among converted Jewish Christians were impatience in difficulties -James1:1-4, talking the truth but not living the truth –James2:14, Lack of control over tongues –James 3:1, fighting and coveting among eachother –James 4:1, hoarding possessions such as Gold and silver James  5:1-11

James talks about dead and living faith, royal law and law of liberty in chapter 1 and 2 to correct their understanding of faith and living. James says in 2:14  ‘what good is it my brothers if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds can such faith save him?’ which faith you think he was talking about? You think he was talking about the faith in Jesus as their lord and saviour? No, it is the faith that they believed God is one!(verse 19) To have this faith is good but this faith alone does not save a person! The muslims, the Jehovah witnesses, Jewish and all other Unitarians believe God is only one. That is good but that faith does not save them. James tells furthermore that even demons believe there is one God (vs. 19) and this faith can save no demons or human beings. This type of faith is dead faith. How did these twelve tribes know that there is one God? Obviously through the knowledge of oldtestament. They believed that they should obey God’s laws of the old testament to be justified before God. James reveals the truth saying vs. 10 whoever keeps the whole law(old testament law) and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. The truth is that nobody is able to keep the whole law without causing a single error. If we make errors in keeping the law then we are guilty of breaking the whole.  If we break the law, then we cannot be justified by the law and we end up deserving the death. Therefore James says if you manage to keep the whole royal law(law of the oldtestament), you are doing good (2:8) but if you can not manage then believe in the perfect law that gives perfect freedom(James 2:12-13). When you are under this law you will be blessed on everything you do.(1:25). This perfect law of freedom represents Jesus himself and his Grace. John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 8: 31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”33 They answered him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?” 34 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. 35 Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest)

There is no other thing that can set us free perfectly except the truth and Jesus. There is no one who can give us perfect rest and peace except Jesus (John 14:27). The faith that Jesus is our master or lord and savior is the true and living faith. The true faith will move us into action so that when we will be judged we will have mercy at the time of judgement. This mercy will be given only to those who live by perfect law of freedom or in another word by faith in Lord Jesus. The truth which is revealed through James is that Mercy triumphs over Judgement(James 2:12-13). The one who will have mercy of our Lord Jesus will not be condemned. But those who are under the law will be judged by the law and judgement will be shown without mercy. Single violation of law will result the whole wrath of God. (Romans 4:15 because the law brings wrath. And where there is no law there is no transgression.) Therefore it  is not our deeds according to the laws of bible that can save or rescue our souls at the day of judgment but it is the true faith in the lord Jesus and his mercy which makes us bold and free to live for him being Gospel and merciful to other, saves us!

In the churches it is possible to be false Christians which false teaching Jesus warns of it in the Parable of the ten virgins. The Bible also warns us of false teaching and heresies in the lattest days. We live the lattest days. Have you tried to identify false teaching and heresies in the christianism ? The Western liberal theology support that it is enough to believe in Jesus, not to do good deeds too. It is false.

Me: You talked again about western theology, but I have told you already that I have nothing to do with this theology. No necessary to comment or talk about it. We must talk from bible rather than talking western, or eastern or Romanian theology. If you know that I have taught someone telling that we don’t need to do any good deeds after believing in Christ, please tell me openly, I will be happy to know the truth. But I have never told someone that we should not do any good deeds after having faith in Christ. Rather I have said that we must do good works which God has ordained from long before not for our salvation but for God and for his glory!(please read -Eph. 2:10, 2 cor. 5:15, 1 cor. 10:31, 1 cor. 14:8)

As regards the lies about you. You interpret it as lies. The brothers read what you read on your blog. You can show brothers from Lyngdal what you wrote on your blog and they can make an impression about it.The brothers from Itcani said that you seemed to avoid them. That you showed to be busy with the child. Viorica and Dorin could have translated you. I understood from brothers Viorica translated to you only partially on purpose so that you may not undarstand about the subject discussed. Viorel speaks English. You could have discussed with him. Now you can ask his mail address from your grand-mother and discuss with him in English.

Me: It is a complete lie if these brothers said to you that I have avoided them to talk! I am a man and I am not idol to stand still. I am in my home with my child. Child is not the reason to avoid them to talk with me, I felt alone and bored when these brothers kept on taking themselves about my teaching without even asking me a single opinion or letting me know what they were talking about. My wife was busy to serve them, my child needed someone to care, so I took care of him after a while. Holding a child does not stop your mouth to speak. If they wanted to talk with me, they could have talked with me even I was holding my child. To say that I have avoided to talk with them is an easy excuse to cover their shame. If I was in their place I would be full of shame.

I did not say lies about you brothers in Lyngdal. Again, as regards to lies God judge amoung us. Hi! It is good to interpret the Bible in the context. The salvation is free. You presented me many verses about free salvation, by grace, sacrifice of Jesus at cross. . All these refer to the fact we get free salvation from our sins, our sinful past when we repent. We cannot get forgiveness with money. But we must fullfil some biblical principle to be saved.

Me: Brother if you depend on fulfilling biblical rules and regulations to be saved eternally, I am very sure from what Paul said that you will end up without being saved.(Galatians 2:21, Romans 3:20 Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.)

In Matthew 25: 35-46. the parable of goats and sheep. There are many verses which speaks of it. all James chpater 2. It is no use discussing more because every one of us mentain his point of view.

Me: Sheep and Goat (Matthew 25:31-46)
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’ 44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Apparent and conventional understanding is that Good deeds/charity is the evidence to the salvation. The truth of a parable does not lie on literal or apparent meaning or understanding. We must find the truth according to biblical context and biblical revelation of itself. Before we make interpretation of this parable we should keep in mind that Matthew 13:34 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. Story of Sheep and goats is a parable.  The purpose of speaking in parables is to reveal the message to those only his chosen who believes in him (Matthew 13:10-17). These parables work the same in our time too. Before the judgment seatJesus our king says to the one who are to his right side(should be from different nations), Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.(vs 34) He did not say that come all you who are blessed by your good deeds but instead he said “blessed by My Father”.

What covenant did God make to bless his sheep or people? We should look from Old-testament.

Galatians 3:6-9
So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”[ Gen. 15:6, Romans 4:3] 7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[ Gen. 12:3; 18:18; 22:18] 9 So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith

Romans 9:6-8
It is not as though God’s word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. 7 Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham’s children. On the contrary, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.”[ Gen. 21:12] 8 In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring.Galatians 3:29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.Galatians 4:28 Now you, brothers and sisters, like Isaac, are children of promise.

Do we belong to Christ? Yes ..
How? We have the spirit of God in us Romans 8:9 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.

Who gives us this spirit? Jesus and the father God(Luke 11:13, John16:5-7, 20:22)

Who brings us to Christ? Father John 6:44 “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day.”

Who chose us(Gentiles) to be God’s children? God himself Romans 8:15-16,Romans 11:11 Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their(Israelites’) transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious.

Is salvation because of what we did and we deserved? No— Romans 11:11, 5:8

Then why? Because of his own sovereign choice! Romans 9:15-16For he says to Moses,
“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” 16 It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.

We have seen that it is God who according to his will chose us to believe in Christ and blessed us abundantly despite of our good deeds! In this parable the sheep who sit to the right side of King are blessed by Father alone!

Next phase Jesus talks about the good deeds of sheep and bad deeds of goats

Sheep knows the shepherd and listens to him, is because they are sheep. They exhibit the sheep nature all the time. They have special relationship with their shepherd.  Here a group of people did good deeds not because they are to be saved but to demonstrate what they are.  They were blessed by father and he had prepared place for them from before!
John 10:14  “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me. John 10:26-28 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. 27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.

It is true that the deeds of everyone will be exposed in the day of judgement (John 3:20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.)

The goats did not do good deeds it is because they were not sheep of Jesus. They chose darkness and did bad things from the beginning. John 10:26

These false sheep even had done good deeds that would not rescue them. Because they would be judged according their motives and faith. A confident tax collector though he did good deeds and was confident of righteousness that comes by the law, could not rescue him finally. Luke 18:9-14, False sheep doing a lot of good deeds in the name of Jesus but did not do the will of God father in haven were not rescued- Matthew 7:21-23

Work of God which we must do and that saves us is to believe in Jesus John 6:28-29

Jesus came to proclaim the gospel to the poor in spirit than to do social charity for poor Matthew 11:1-6, Jesus is the one who can satisfy our thirst and Hunger for spiritual life John 6:53, John 4:10-11,13 John 7:37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.


As regards the Sexual Revolution, you can document yourself. It is written about Sexual Revolution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_revolution_in_1960s_United_States "The pill" provided many women a more affordable way to avoid pregnancy." Also, about Liberal theology. It is important if you want to see the things with objective eyes, not with subjective motivation. As regard culture, culture shall not include sinful things. For example a woman which dress partially naked break the Biblical principles. Also a woman with makes up her nails makes a sin. In our days the society tends to have the culture of Sodome, we must not let influenced by it.

Paul also said about children in 1 Timothy 5:14 "So I counsel younger widows to marry, to have children, to manage their homes and to give the enemy no opportunity for slander."


Me: But also paul did not say that every women should be married and should have many children. Did he ?
