Lucy-Spew #09 … The Blood of Christ<br />

Lucy: Scaughdt, you don‘t understand because you don't believe in Salvation!!!!! … If these<br />

churches are condoning the homosexual and telling everyone that it is OK to partake in the<br />

sexual act, or even if they are condoning fornication – or any other sexual immorality, then they<br />

are going against the teachings of God and they are condoning sin … and they are condemning<br />

themselves thereby! It is not OK to defy God. He has warned us that He will not forgive any<br />

sin that has not been washed by the blood of Jesus Christ …<br />

―Jesus said you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven unless you are born of the Spirit.<br />

The new birth from the Holy Spirit occurs when a person truly believes that Jesus is the Son of<br />

God and trusts in the finished work of Jesus on the cross to atone for their own sins and to justify<br />

them before God. The Scriptures say you are saved by faith, not by your own works, lest<br />

anyone should boast (Ephesians 2:8) … Some in religious training were taught that Jesus died<br />

for their sins and that they are thus saved or justified, but in their lives there is no evidence by<br />

works of the Spirit. Do they really have Jesus, or do they only have knowledge about Him? Do<br />

they have ‗Churchianity‘ or do they have Christianity? …<br />

True Christianity is believing that God's promise to provide a Savior was fulfilled in His<br />

Son, Jesus Christ. This promise of a Savior and a Messiah to restore man's righteousness and<br />

good works can never bring about eternal life with God because man always falls short of the<br />

required perfection necessary to dwell in the presence of a Holy God. Yet Judaism did not fail,<br />

because through the tribe of Judah a Savior from God was born …<br />

A large Christian denomination‘s leadership has become infiltrated by the elite of Satan<br />

and much of the institutional church has fallen away from the true faith and have followed<br />

doctrines of men instead. Some have a different Jesus then the Jesus of Scripture … Fellowship<br />

with God is integrated throughout all Scripture … Many of the church's traditions and practices<br />

are contrary to Scripture, proving that this church is far from being infallible. Satan with his<br />

wolves in sheep's clothing has infiltrated this church and corrupted it … The Scripture says that<br />

there will be a great falling away from the true faith in the last days. It says men will not endure<br />

sound doctrine, but will have itching ears and will heap to themselves teachers that will fulfill<br />

their own lusts (2 Timothy 4:3) …We are in those days where many in the church are following<br />

doctrines of men rather than those of the Bible.‖ 23<br />

Scaughdt, it is only through Jesus and what he did on the Cross that we can be saved,<br />

and it is a choice you have to make. You can live without him and keep on sinning and defying<br />

his Word … You can make your own way if you wish. That is what the sinner does … And yet<br />

you cannot justify sin!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />

23 This entire passage was directly quoted from the www.thepropheticyears.com website – a webpage written &<br />

administered by Don Koenig; a lay, end-times evangelical proselytizer who believes – among other things – that<br />

Universalist Christians and New Age gurus are independently planning for the Rapture, that the Rapture is very<br />

imminent, that only evangelical Christians (for simplicity‘s sake, those who adhere strictly to the contents of<br />

Romans 10:9) will qualify to be saved once the Rapture takes place, and that it is not proper for Christians to<br />

condemn others based on their beliefs &/or practices; especially other Christians. (!)<br />
