<h2>The Author of Jesus' Words Only (2007).</h2>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author is a California litigation attorney, in practice for thirty years. In school, he studied Classical Greek and Latin and achieved designation as a Classical Language Scholar. He is also fluent in Spanish and Italian. He graduated law school <em>cum laude</em> in 1981, and was on the board of Law Review.</span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times;">The author became a Christian at age 15 at a campout of Faith Bible Church on a visit to Florida. Back home in New York City, he was baptized in a Baptist church, and attended a Baptist church for several years. Later, in Los Angeles, he joined the Westwood Hills Christian Church for several years and then for 15 years he belonged to a conservative Presbyterian Church. At each church in California, he served as legal advisor. </span></span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">A true scholar and prolific author, the author approaches his extensive treatises on spiritual faith from a truly unique perspective. As an accomplished attorney for many years, he advances each quest-to-substantiate through exhaustive research, meticulous analysis, thorough presentation of opposing points-of-view, and indisputable verifications in defining his own interpretations of Christianity and the Bible. In the end, he presents a faithful answer, providing an incomparable bottom-line truth of what is conveyed in the inspired Bible. (Written by K. Atred.)</span></p>

<h2>The Author's Beliefs</h2>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times;"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author regards himself today as an evangelical Christian whose doctrine is Sole Christus -- only what the words of Jesus teach -- which includes</span></span></p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">that we hallow the true name of God -- Yahweh (Matt 6:9);</span></li>
|
||||
<li><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">that the "Father dwells in" Jesus (John</span><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;"> </span><a href="http://bible.cc/john/14-10.htm" style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">14:10</a><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">, "Father...dwells in me") which renders Jesus Divine; </span></li>
|
||||
<li><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">that Jesus died for our sins in fulfillment of the atonement principle of the Torah-Law; </span></li>
|
||||
<li><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">that we can go to heaven maimed by repenting of sin or we can go to hell whole,</span><em> <em>i.e.</em>,</em><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;"> by not repenting of sin, as Jesus taught (Matt 18:6-9; Mark 9:42-47); </span></li>
|
||||
<li><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">that the sin we commit is judged by the Law of which Jesus said "not one jot or title will be removed" until all things are accomplished; and that the "greatest in the kingdom" are those who teach the principles of the Law (Matt 5:17-19) - without man-made additions or subtractions, as the Pharisees wrongfully did. (Matt 15:6); </span></li>
|
||||
<li><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">And that as we walk in the light by repentance and obedience, the blood of Christ keeps us clean. (1 John 1:7,9.)</span></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<hr />
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author believes that only the Law's provisions which apply to "sojourners" or "foreigners" intended to apply to Gentiles, </span><em>viz.</em><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">, most of the 10 commandments are repeated as applicable to them, <em>e.g.</em>, <a href="/Recommended-Reading/sabbathcommand.html">Sabbath observance</a>, and not provisions stated as applicable only to Israelites, <em>e.g</em>., Lev. 12:1-3 (circumcision). See<a href="/JWO/law-applicable-today.html"> Law Applicable to Gentiles</a>.</span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author promotes non-denominationalism and home churches whose only recognized pastor and teacher is Christ in conformance with Jesus' doctrine that He was the "sole teacher" (Matt 23:8, 10) and "sole pastor" (John 10:16.) </span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author also exhorts adherents of Jesus to support widows and orphans as the primary beneficiaries of their charity -- a virtue which Jesus exhorted as essential in the Parable of the Sheep & The Goats. Several orphan charities unaffiliated with the author are identified <a href="/Recommended-Reading/sabbathcommand.html">here</a>.</span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author does not seek / request or facilitate donations ever for his benefit. Nor does he run a church nor leads any group of believers in a 'movement,' nor desires to do so. </span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author seeks only to educate more people to find Christ, and those who find Christ to remain loyal to Him as King Messiah over them. A follower of Christ cannot become allegiant to doctrines from Paul which are not tied directly and exclusively to Christ's words. </span></p>
|
||||
<p><span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: 12pt;">The author has made available free online all his materials. For those who seek a printed-book or e-book, the author has made them available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble, but they are not necessary to purchase if one utilizes the online materials. </span></p>

|

<p>Jesus gives us all, even "believers in me" (<em>i.e.</em>, Jesus), a stark choice between going to heaven maimed (<em>i.e.</em>, after severe repentance from sin) or we can go to hell whole. Here is Jesus's clearest message on salvation.</p>

<h2>The Three Passages At Issue</h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">(42) And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that <strong><em>believe on me</em></strong> to stumble, it were better for him if a great millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. (43) And if thy <em><strong>hand cause thee to stumble</strong></em>, <em><strong>cut it off</strong></em>: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed, rather than having thy two hands to go into<em><strong> hell, into the unquenchable fire</strong></em>. (44) where their worm dieth not, and the<em><strong> fire is not quenched</strong></em>. (45) And if thy foot cause thee to stumble, cut it off: it is good for thee to enter into life halt, rather than having thy two feet to be cast into hell. (46) where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. (47) And if thine eye cause thee to stumble, cast it out: it is good for thee to <em><strong>enter into the kingdom of God with one eye</strong></em>, rather than having two eyes to be <em><strong>cast into hell</strong></em>; (48) where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. (Mark 9:42-48 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<div style="padding-left: 30px;"></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">(29) And if thy right eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell. (30) And if thy right hand causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is <em><strong>profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish</strong></em>, and not thy<strong><em> whole body go into hell</em></strong>. (Matt. 5:29-30 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<div style="padding-left: 30px;"></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">(6) But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that<em><strong> believe on me</strong></em> to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea. (7) Woe unto the world because of occasions of stumbling! for it must needs be that the occasions come; but woe to that man through whom the occasion cometh! (8) And if thy hand or thy foot <em><strong>causeth thee to stumble</strong></em>,<em><strong> cut it off</strong></em>, and cast it from thee: it is <strong><em>good for thee to enter into life maimed</em></strong> or halt, rather than having<em><strong> two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire.</strong></em> (9) And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is<em><strong> good for thee to enter into life with one eye</strong></em>, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire. (Matt. 18:6-9 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<div style="padding-left: 30px;"></div>
|
||||
<div style="padding-left: 30px;"></div>
|
||||
<p>The literal meaning is clear. Jesus says a “believer in me” can “stumble.” (Mark 9:42: Matt. 18:6.) Jesus repetitively tells “you” that if you stumble, you had better cut off the body part causing you to sin or you will go to hell whole. In its most succinct sense, this teaches ‘heaven maimed or hell whole.’</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<h2>In-Depth Exposition</h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>If you sin against God’s standards, Jesus required “cutting off the body parts” that cause you to be “ensnared in sin” or you will be sent to hell. (Matthew 5:29, Matthew 18:8, and Mark 9:42-48.) You can go to “heaven maimed” or “hell whole.” Jesus specifically said this principle applies to “believers in me who become ensnared (or stumble).” (Mark 9:42; Matt. 18:6.) Jesus described the steps needed as ‘cutting off the body part ensnaring you to sin.’</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>What does this passage mean?</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>First, does “cutting off body parts” mean more than merely sorrow for sin?</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>Yes, for Jesus taught one needs to actually take urgent steps to destroy the object from which the temptation grows. Jesus is pointing to physical steps consistent with an antecedent mental sorrow. Thus, Jesus insists that for <strong><em>“believers in me</em></strong>” who are “ensnared” that if they wish to go to heaven, they must do so actually “maimed.” Clearly, in context, Jesus is not talking about merely changing your mind about sin (<em>i.e.,</em> sorrow for sin). Nor is Jesus talking about changing your mind about Himself — faith. Rather, Jesus is talking about <em><strong>taking active measures to prevent sin</strong></em> in the future. You will then become obedient.</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>What are these steps? Are they a species of works worthy of repentance? Is it successful obedience? Or is it literally separating from yourself the causes of temptation to make repeating sin impossible? We must search this out carefully. Jesus made your salvation absolutely indispensable on these steps: it is heaven maimed or hell whole. There is no third option for a “<strong><em>believer ensnared in sin</em></strong>” to go to heaven by faith alone. Thus, it is imperative to find Jesus’ meaning for the good of our own souls.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have lived with the cheap grace gospel in your consciousness as long as I have (over twenty-five years), then I venture to say this chapter will do you the most good. Why? Because Jesus is going to give you in these passages the medicine your soul needs so desperately to stay healthy and saved.</p>

<h2>The Skandalon</h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>We will now quote the same passages you read at the outset. However, this time, we will reveal the Greek verb <strong><em>skandalizo</em></strong> and the Greek noun <strong><em>skandalon</em></strong>. It is absolutely essential to note these words and their meaning to understand Jesus’ message. So please read these verses one more time:</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">(42) And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble (<strong><em>skandalizo</em></strong>), it were better for him if a great millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. (43) And if thy [your] hand cause thee to stumble (<strong><em>skandalizo</em></strong>), cut it off: it is good for thee [you] to enter into life maimed, rather than having thy two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire. (44) where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. (45) And if thy [your] foot cause thee [you] to stumble (<em><strong>skandalizo</strong></em>), cut it off: it is good for thee [you] to enter into life halt, rather than having thy two feet to be cast into hell. (46) where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. (47) And if thine [your] eye cause thee [you] to stumble (<em><strong>skandalizo</strong></em>), cast it out: it is good for thee [you] to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell; (48) where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. (Mar 9:42-48 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>Jesus repeats this in Matthew. He says:</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">(7) Woe unto the world because of offences (<em><strong>skandalon</strong></em>, plural)! for it must needs be that offences (<strong><em>skandalon</em></strong>) come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! (8) Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend (<strong><em>skandalizo</em></strong>) thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. (9) And if thine eye offend (<em><strong>skandalizo</strong></em>) thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

<h2>The Picture Of A Box Trap Missing In English</h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>To understand Jesus here it is useful to note that the Greek word translated as <em>stumble</em> is from the Greek verb<strong><em> skandalizo</em></strong>. Our English word <em>scandalized</em> comes from it. Its best translation here is <strong><em>entrapped</em></strong>. And when the passage in Matthew speaks of <em>offences</em>, it uses the plural of <em>skandalon</em>. It means here <strong><em>snares</em></strong>.</p>
|
||||
<p>A <strong><em>skandalon</em></strong> in Greek literally meant the wooden stick that would hold up one edge of a metal box-trap. (See Box Trap graphic immediately below as well as Photo of such a trap at end of this webpage.)</p>
|
||||
<p>Food would be put under the box. An animal would be tempted by the food to enter the trap. Then the hunter would stay a significant distance away, hidden from view. The hunter would then use a small string that was holding the skandalon stick. The hunter would pull on the string, causing the skandalon stick to collapse. The box-trap would fall, and the animal’s whole body would normally be trapped inside. The animal would be skandlizo-ed.</p>
|
||||
<p><img alt="hell whole shortened_img_0" height="375" width="381" src="/images/stories/Salvation/hell whole shortened_img_0.jpg" /></p>
|
||||
<p>It is absolutely essential to understand the term <em>skandalon</em> in order to understand Jesus’ message. For sometimes an animal could escape the metal trap by letting a limb be ripped off. For example, if the trap fell on a tail. Or only on a leg. Or only on an arm. The animal would be trapped only partially. Before the hunter would run over, the animal would begin a desperate struggle for its life. By a great force of will to live, the animal would release itself from the trap by using its free limbs to pull away. In that process of pulling away, the<strong><em> animal would tear off the body part that was pinned under the metal trap</em></strong>. The animal would run away, maimed but still alive.</p>
|
||||
<p>Jesus’ reference to this hunting-picture is clear from the message quoted above. In verses 43 and 45 of Mark 9, Jesus says you should “cut off” the body part ensnaring yourself. The word He uses is the verb form of the noun<em> skandalon</em>. You should behave like the animal that is ensnared (<em>skandalizo-ed</em>) by a single body part. Suffer the loss of a limb but live rather than hold onto the limb and be taken and killed by the hunter. The hunting imagery makes Jesus’ meaning plain.</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<h2>The Picture of Salvation At Stake For “Scandalized” Believers Is Unmistakable</h2>
|
||||
<p>Jesus is very concerned about those “believers” in him who become “<em>skandlizo</em>-ed.” (Mark 9:42; Matt. 18:6.) Rather than Jesus telling us no Christian believer can ever become <em>skandalizo</em>-ed, Jesus bewails those who “shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble....” <em>i.e.</em>, be<em> skandalizo-ed</em>. (Mark 9:42; Matt.18:6.)</p>
|
||||
<p>What is the price that one of these “believers in me” must pay for being skandalizo-ed? Jesus repeats three times the price is damnation.</p>

<h2><strong>How Is One Saved In Jesus’ Lesson?</strong></h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>Jesus could not be more clear about the price of salvation for the “believer in me” who has become “ensnared” (skandalizo-ed). It is stern measures of the most severe sort.</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p><img src="/images/stories/Salvation/tab2f.jpg" /></p>
|
||||
<h2>What Are These Stern Measures?</h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<h3>The Stern Measure Given The Young Rich Man</h3>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>In Jesus’ answer to the young rich man’s question on how to have eternal life, Jesus first tells the young man to “obey the Law.” (Matthew 19:16-26; Mark 10:17-31; Luke 18:18-26.)</p>
|
||||
<p>Then, when the young man says he has obeyed it, Jesus next gives the young man a heaven-maimed command:</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Jesus said unto him, If thou wouldest be perfect (teleios, mature, complete), go, sell that which thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. (Matt. 19:21 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<p>There is no command in Scripture that one is not permitted to have wealth. But Jesus is insisting that this particular man give all his wealth to the poor. Why? Jesus’ word choice indicates that this is how this particular young man will reach a completed and perfect state.</p>
|
||||
<p>Isn’t this a stern measure? The man was very wealthy, the text says. What problem does wealth by itself cause, even if obtained legitimately?</p>
|
||||
<p>Jesus once said:</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot <em><strong>serve God and mammon</strong></em>. (Matt. 6:24 ASV)</p>
|
||||
<p>Jesus in Revelation speaks similarly, saying that riches blocked the productivity of the church members at Laodicea.</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">(16) So because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spew thee out of my mouth. (17) Because thou sayest,<strong><em> I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing</em></strong>; and knowest not that thou art the wretched one and miserable and poor and blind and naked: (Rev. 3:16-17 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<p>Jesus in the Parable of the Sower speaks similarly of the third seed. Its productivity is blocked by riches. Let’s do a brief review of the Parable of the Sower on this issue.</p>
|
||||
<p>In that parable, the first seed rejects the word and never believes. (Luke 8:12.) The second seed “believes for a while” but then falls into temptation and withers (dies). (Luke 8:13.) The third seed goes much farther in growth, but then is choked by thorns. Jesus tells us what are those thorns:</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">And that which fell among the thorns, these are they that have heard, and as they go on their way they are <strong><em>choked with</em></strong> cares and <strong><em>riches and pleasures of this life</em></strong>, and bring no fruit to perfection. (Luke 8:14 ASV.)</p>
|
||||
<p>Thus, repeatedly, Jesus says that riches can block productivity. Riches become thorns and hence a snare. The root problem is that riches become one’s priority, causing you to not produce for the Lord.</p>
|
||||
<h3>How do these passages help us understand the heaven-maimed or hell-whole statement?</h3>
|
||||
<p>Because Jesus evidently is giving the young rich man a cure that will prevent his serving his mammon any longer. By giving away all his wealth to the poor, and becoming poor himself, the young man will put an end to the source of his temptation. The rich man if turned poor can now become rich toward God.</p>
|
||||
<p>In this example from Jesus’ ministry, the physical object that needed to be destroyed was the wealth itself. The desire for riches made the young rich man seek its service, not God’s service. The young man has sacrificed productivity to God in good works because they often cost money to do. Thus, the young rich man may think he has not transgressed any commands among the Ten Commandments. But the affirmative commands elsewhere in the Law of charity (good works) were being ignored. Productivity in good works are being sacrificed to the god of mammon that the young man loved.</p>
|
||||
<p>Thus, heaven maimed for this young man meant cutting off his connection to his accumulated wealth. Starting over will give him a new outlook where God’s works are his goal rather than serving mammon.</p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>Jesus’ hell-whole or heaven maimed warning is in stark contrast to the Modern Gospel of Cheap Grace. Jesus says unless you buffet your body to avoid sinning you will later be rejected. (Mark 9:42-48.) A Christian believer who is ensnared has only two choices: heaven maimed or hell whole. There is no compromising idea that faith or some initial obedience is all that matters. Jesus demands success. The price of heaven is precisely success in avoiding sin. You must take whatever measures that achieve this or you will suffer hell forever. Jesus is blunt.</p>

<h2>Photo Example of 'Skandalizing' Animal Trap Used by Ancient Greeks</h2>
|
||||
<p><img src="/images/stories/Salvation/hell whole shortened_img_2.jpg" /></p>
|
||||
<div></div>
|
||||
<p>While drafting this chapter, Kevin, a young Costa Rican neighbor, just happened to have created a classic animal trap similar to that used by the ancient Greeks. Kevin designed it to capture birds. The stick he is placing is the <em>skandalon</em>. The corn serves to entice the bird to enter. This is the imagery Jesus meant by His use of the noun <em>skandalon</em> and the verb <em>skandalizo</em>. When the string attached to the <em>skandalon</em> is pulled, the trap is sprung. If the bird is only partially pinned, it has to let go of bird feathers or limbs in order to escape.</p>

<h2>The Author of Jesus' Words Only (2007).</h2>
|
||||
<p>The author is a California litigation attorney, in practice for twenty-nine years. In school, he studied Classical Greek and Latin and achieved designation as a Classical Language Scholar. He is also fluent in Spanish and Italian. He graduated law school cum laude in 1981, and was on the board of Law Review.</p>
|
||||
<p>The author became a Christian at age 15 at a campout of Faith Bible Church on a visit to Florida. Back home in New York City, he was baptized in a Baptist church, and attended a Baptist church for several years. Later, in Los Angeles, he joined the Christian Church for several years and then for 15 years he belonged to a conservative Presbyterian Church. At each church in California, he served as legal advisor. In 1998-2001, the author served as a self-funded missionary abroad in Costa Rica with his wife. They served in an outreach to the very poor in a community known as Las Tablas. In this period, the author was exposed to the Assembly of God/Church of God, and fellowshipped regularly with them. As the author also explains, this is where a sub-group created a home church where Jesus was the Pastor and sole teacher. (For this experience, see<a href="/JWO/jesus-on-church-structure.html"> Jesus on Church Structure</a>.) Now back in California, the author first attended a Messianic congregation, but now currently fellowships at an Assembly of God church.</p>
|
||||
<p>A true scholar and prolific author, the author approaches his extensive treatises on spiritual faith from a truly unique perspective. As an accomplished attorney for many years, he advances each <em>quest-to-substantiate</em> through exhaustive research, meticulous analysis, thorough presentation of opposing points-of-view, and indisputable verifications in defining his own interpretations of Christianity and the Bible. In the end, he presents a faithful answer, providing an incomparable bottom-line truth of what is conveyed in the inspired Bible. (K. Atred.)</p>
