Salvation
The wholehearted Gospel
The Blood of Yeshua/ Jesus, water and the Holy Spirit.
Hebrews 10:10 (NKJV):
10 By that will we have been sanctified through
the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
1 John 1:7 (NKJV):
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 Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
John 19:30,34 (NKJV):
30 So when Jesus had received the sour wine,
He said, “It is finished!”
And bowing His head, He gave up His SPIRIT.
34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear,
and immediately BLOOD and WATER came out.
Lets see Yeshua/ Jesus on the execution stake one more time:
-
Yeshua/ Jesus gave up His Spirit
-
Blood (Yeshua`s/ Jesus` Blood) came out
-
and water came out
1 John 5:6-8 (DARBY):
6 This is He that came by water and Blood, Jesus Christ;
not by water only, but by water and Blood.
And it is the Spirit that bears witness,
for the Spirit is the truth.
7 For they that bear witness are three:
8 the Spirit, and the water, and the Blood;
and the three agree in one.
Think about natural babies to be born:
-
amniotic fluid
-
blood
-
breath
You must be born again
John 3:3-7 (NKJV):
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.’
Acts 2:37-41 (NKJV):
37 Now when they heard this,
they were cut to the heart,
and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles,
“Men and brethren, what shall we do?”
38 Then Peter said to them,
“Repent, and let every one of you be baptized
in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins;
and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 For the promise is to you and to your children,
and to all who are afar off,
as many as the Lord our God will call.”
40 And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying,
“Be saved from this perverse generation.”
41 Then those who gladly received his word were baptized;
and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.
I repeat:
…and that day about 3 000 souls were saved !!!!
Repent !!
Repent just means to change one’s heart, mind and actions;
to think and act otherwise than before.
Then take a baptism (fully immersed)
in the name of Jesus Christ (or Yeshua Messiah)
for the remission of sins and unto Jesus/ Yeshua.
And then, just receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Now you are also born again,
born of water and of the Spirit.
Here is an example from the Bible:
Acts 8:36-38 (NKJV):
36 Now as they went down the road, they came to some water.
And the eunuch said,
“See, here is water.
What hinders me from being baptized?”
37 Then Philip said,
“If you believe with all your heart, you may.”
And he answered and said,
“I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”
38 So he commanded the chariot to stand still.
And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him.
(The word for “eunuch” in the Aramaic manuscripts of both of these passages is M’HAIMNA which can mean “eunuch” but can also mean “believer” or “faithful one” as it would seem to mean here.)

The Water Baptism & The Holy Spirit in the Bible
Galatians 3:27 (NKJV):
27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ
have put on Christ.
Romans 6:3-4 (NKJV)
3 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus
were baptized into His death?
4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death,
that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father,
even so we also should walk in newness of life.

The Congregation of God
In the congregation of the Only One God of Israel
there is none (zero) without the water baptism unto Yeshua/ Jesus
(baptism fully immersed under water and NOT to sprinkle babies !!).
The water and the Holy Spirit are inseparable in the Bible.
Even in the times of Moses…
1 Corinthians 10:1-2 (NKJV):
1 Moreover, brethren,
I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud,
all passed through the sea,
2 all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,
Now you are also sealed
Ephesians 1:13 (NKJV):
1 In Him you also trusted,
after you heard the word of truth,
the gospel of your salvation;
in whom also, having believed,
you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.
And a child of God of Israel
1 John 3:1 (NKJV):
3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us,
that we should be called children of God!
Therefore the world does not know us,
because it did not know Him.
A born again branch in the Olive Tree
Romans 11:16-24 (NKJV):
16 For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,
18 do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.”
20 Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.
21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.
22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness of God if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
23 And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
24 For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.
2 kind of branches
And there are two kind of branches in the Olive Tree-
in other words- the Only One Congregation of the God of Israel:
-
the born again Israelis- NOT Jews.
-
the born again Gentiles- NOT Christians.
Our time is running out !!
Is your time running out also ??
If you bro or sis read this far,
be strongly blessed in Yeshua`s/ Jesus` name.
