Admin	Jesus doesn't need our help -- so save the " garcon check please " for another occasion Posted : 26 Apr, 2021 10:32 PM It is Finished! It is finished! The 6th saying Jesus spoke from the cross. These three words in English have been translated to us from one Greek word “Tetelestai” meaning it is finished. A quick read over this verse might tempt us to think that Jesus was speaking of his physical sufferings ending. Indeed his suffering at the cross was about to end but a closer look into the meaning of this word will show us he meant so much more. The Greek word Tetelestai is thick with meaning. Our English words can’t portray the weight of this word as well as the Greek. Tetelestai was used by servants when they were given a task to complete and once they completed their work would report back to their masters It is finished. Jesus the perfect servant reported back to God the father the his redemptive work on the cross was finished. This word was also used by merchants to mean paid in full. Or bankers when a debt was paid in full. Jesus has fully paid our debt we owe from our sin and rebellion. Artist would also cry out Tetelestai when they had finished with a master piece. Jesus the original creator has restored out relationship with God in the most beautiful way. Priest and shepherds would use this word when they would find the perfect sheep for sacrifice. Jesus is the perfect lamb of God that forever takes away the sins of the world. On top of all that Jesus spoke this word in the perfect tense and this describes an action that is completed in the past present and the future once for all. Jesus’ work is done on the cross and will always be done and has always been done . Christian do you live in Jesus victory? He has done a perfect work paying for our sins and bringing us back into relationship with him. So many of us relate to God on our own performance and not the completed work of Jesus. As i mentioned before Tetelestai was used by artist when they had finished a work of art. Jesus’ work for our salvation was a master work of art. Do you think you can add to that? Imagine you looking at the sistine chapel or the mona lisa and thinking “yea i can improve that give me my markers!”. How silly would you look trying to make one more payment on your car that has been paid off? This is what we look like when we try and work for our salvation. How sad it is when we don’t trust that Jesus’ work wasn’t enough for us. No! Jesus said it is finished. We have been redeemed. There is nothing let to do. It has been paid in full. All we have to do is believe it and walk in it and worship him for it Post Reply

Isn't this interesting dear readers in how rsvp Capitalizes the pagan name of Jesus but does NOT Capitalize YHWH the 'father' as being equal in title/respect BUTTTTT then rsvp gets it right when he states - the Messiah as a 'servant reports back to' YHWH the Father, yet for some strange reason all throughout the forum, thread after thread, rsvp teaches this PAGAN 'trinity' of multiple 'god(s) persons' and now rsvp's 'Jesus' is superior in POWER of title/respect over the Father??? That's right dear readers, rsvp is full of SELF contradictions and cannot even get his SELF theology correct on his 'trinity' of 'gods' as always because he never speaks of 'them' in plural form??? Of course not, because the Bible says nothing of multiple 'gods' to worship but ONLY ONE! Lets look at ONLY a few verse examples (and there are a TON more verses!) rsvp does NOT want you to see, as to continue to teach his CULTISH 'trinity' PAGAN doctrine! Lets read some from our Bibles like - Deuteronomy. 4:35,39; 6:4 and Isaiah 37:16,20; 43:10,11; 44:6,8. Deuteronomy 4:35 'Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the Lord (singular) he is God; >>>there is none else beside him.<<< Deuteronomy 4:39 'Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord (singular) he is God (singular) in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: >>>there is none else.<<< Deuteronomy 6:4 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord (singular) our God (singular) is >>>one Lord:<<<' (Note in Mark 12:28-34 how the Messiah Yah'shua and a jewish scribe he encounters understood this text!) Isaiah 37:16 'O Lord (singular) of hosts, God (singular) of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art >>>the<<< (singular) God, even >>>thou alone,<<< of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou (singular) hast made heaven and earth.' Isaiah 37:20 'Now therefore, O Lord (singular) our God (singular), save us from his (singular) hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art >>>the<<< (singular) Lord, even >>>thou only.<<<' Isaiah 43:10 'Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord (singular), and my servant whom I (singular) have chosen: that ye may know and believe me (singular), and understand that I am he (singular): >>>before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.<<< Isaiah 43:11 'I (singular), even I, am the Lord (singular); and >>>beside me (singular) there is no Saviour.<<< And then the icing on the cake verses from Isaiah that neither rsvp nor his cult daddy David cannot refute below of their so called multiple deities! Isaiah 44:6 'Thus saith the Lord (singular) the King (singular) of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord (singular) of hosts; >>>I am (singular) the first, and I am (singular) the last; and beside me (singular) there is no God (singular).<<< 8. 'Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I (singular) told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my (singular) witnesses. >>>Is there a God (no plural!) beside me? yea, there is no God (no plural!); I know not any.<<< rsvp struggles with YHWH being >Omnipresent< and can be in several places at once and MORTAL human creatures cannot! The Bible is so clear on this doctrine, that the Father YHWH took His very own spoken WORD and put it in flesh, called it His Son and died for >>>ALL PAST<<< sinners! John 1:1-3, 14 1. 'In the >>>beginning was the Word (singular)<<<, and >>>the Word (singular) was with God (singular)<<<, and >>>the Word was God (singular)<<<.' 2 'The >>>same<<< was in the >>>beginning with God (singular)<<<.' 3. 'All things were made by >>>Him (singular) <<<; and without >>>Him (singular)<<< was not any thing made that was made.' 14. 'And the Word (singular from the Father, not another deity) was made flesh (a part of the Father Himself made human), and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, not His own) full of grace and truth.' Who is this human form of YHWH made flesh like us? None other than the Father Himself, a part now in flesh, the EVERLASTING FATHER! Isaiah 9:6 'For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name (Yah'shua!) shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, >>>The mighty God (singular), The EVERLASTING FATHER (singular),<<< The Prince (singular)of Peace.' How sad it is then that rsvp does not actually put his trust in the Father, that put His very own WORD in flesh, to trust in that finished 'work' He has done thru His Son, which is Himself, when a part of the Father died on the pole/tree for our sins! rsvp is so taken up with his cultish pagan 'churchy-anity' multiple deities that he cannot worship the ONE ONE ONE true YHWH the Father and became flesh like us in His made Son??? WOW! Post Reply

This is what we look like when we try and work for our salvation." How sensible to have that car bought for us from our Father, who then expects us how to use that car ( our body is the temple of the Lord/vessel/vehicle, and is how the Lord God moves around inside of us)....... 1 Corinthians 7:22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. 23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men. 1 Corinthians 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. "How sad it is when we don’t trust that Jesus’ work wasn’t enough for us. No! Jesus said it is finished. We have been redeemed. There is nothing let to do. It has been paid in full. All we have to do is believe it and walk in it and worship him for it" Walk in it yes, walk in it unworthily, no, that again is their sense... Ephesians 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, Colossians 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 1 Thessalonians 2:12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory. Revelation 3:4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy. Post Reply

Teddyhug^ View Profile History	Jesus doesn't need our help -- so save the " garcon check please " for another occasion Posted : 29 Apr, 2021 09:14 AM Meaning how Teddy reconciles the TWO as in ONE Creator and ANOTHER TRUTH (times TWO!) as in understanding Creation of a stationary non moving, not spinning nor tilting earth where ONLY the sun, moon and stars move above us JUST LIKE THE BIBLE says! But note dear readers here where neither rsvp nor side kick David cannot refute my study, where they are in serious error in teaching their Egyptian CULT 'trinity' of multiple 'gods' and or 'persons' supposedly in Scripture that has NEVER been proven in context! But like David correctly says about himself and rsvp - 'Would that all other false teachers fail at communicating their destructive messages' AMEN David, well said! Post Reply

An incoherent jabber—walkie post about what you believe is not a defense Post Reply
