The Priority of Love extended to Laodicea (EDITED VERSION) - PT 4

The Priority of Love extended to Laodicea 
(EDITED VERSION) - PT 4

The salvational purpose of Christ's coming needs to be fulfilled in Laodicea. Remember the bible tells us in John 3:16-17 and I quote:
16 For God SO LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but THAT (purpose follows) the world THROUGH HIM might be saved.

The present idea of salvation is that a person is saved without being made sinfree and Holy within. Salvation is not seen to be a subjective internal experience of sinfreeness within the heart. However the messages of the bible including the special message to Laodicea teaches the necessity of Sinfreeness within to be saved. These messages also include the 1888 General Conference message of true Righteousness by faith, which to this date is being rejected in mass.
Contrary to Scripture salvation in sin doctrines abound in Laodicea in harmony with her state, for example the idea I mentioned before that salvation is Christ being killed to pay a death penalty in place of man. This idea is really salvation from punishment and not salvation from sin. There is also the idea that salvation is God crediting the righteous works of Jesus to an imagined account in heaven. These all are ideas existing where salvation is not the bible truth of being made free from sin within Rom.6:17-18.
But note the special testimony of salvation being given to Laodicea in Revelation 3:14-22 & She is being called to repent and be changed within from her wretched state to a sinfree state through the indwelling of Christ within.
Christ wants to enter the heart of Laodicea that she may live through Him - Rev.3:14-22 & John 3:16-17. Laodicea with Christ on the outside is described as being wretched and miserable, poor, blind and naked. So the purpose of Christ coming needs to be appreciated by Laodicea that their state would be changed by they living through Christ when he dwells in them.
Now only a good tree could bare good fruit Matt.7:17-18, your heart must be made good to do good, so Christ must come into your heart by His revealed truths that you may be made good in righteousness and Holiness that you may truly do righteousness (1 John 3:7). This is absolutely necessary because one shall only pass in the investigative judgement based on having a truly holy life by faith. Remember Rev.20:12 tells us the dead were judged according to the things written in the books according to their works. Those works are works done by faith - the revealed truths, as it is written the just shall live by faith. So being made good and righteous within is absolutely necessary in being saved. Thus it is necessary for the wretched state and actions of Laodicea (in fact they associate themselves with the experience of the man of Rom.7:14-25 thinking it to be a saved converted experience) to be remedied by the purpose of Christ coming in the way mentioned before.

God manifested Himself through Christ giving the revealed truths that we may live holy through Him in our heart 1 John 4:7.
However Christ is outside the heart of Laodicea knocking to come in (Rev.3:20) by the revealed truths. We accept Christ through the truths of the gospel, as it is written in - 2John 9 I quote: "He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son". So as Christ says be zealous and repent in accepting the truths of Christ especially that of the 1888 General Conference message of Righteousness by faith that He may come in.

Again I say my dear facebook friends repent and in sincerity accept the revealed truths in the many bible studies given that generally revolve around the issue of the gospel of sinfreeness by faith or Righteousness by faith (which is really sinfreeness within by the Righteousness of God in the faith making you sinfree and Holy, with the Righteousness of God being God Himself) that Christ purpose of coming in you and making you holy and sinfree by His indwelling shall be fulfilled.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we...

DID ELLEN G. WHITE EVER CALL THE S.D.A. CHURCH BABYLON IN ANY WAY? BY NYRON MEDINA

In the Bible is brought to view the following statement: “And after these things I  saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was  lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying,  Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all  nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the  earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are  waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice  from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her  sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:1-4. Of this Scripture  we are told that it speaks about the Church, fallen because of sins. “In amazement  they [the people...

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS  EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina Statement of the case 1. Imputed and imparted righteousness are usually seen as different things in apostate  theology; they are presented as happening either successively or at the very same time,  but they are presented as two different salvific functions.  “In this most illuminating paragraph, the writer traces two distinct phases in the process  of our salvation—two complementary aspects of the plan of redemption—which are in a  certain sense successive, but at the same time simultaneous; two different operations of  the same righteousness of Christ, which alone can satisfy the demands of divine justice  and make saints of us. Let us analyze in outline form these two phases:  A. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST BY WHICH WE ARE JUSTIFIED.  1. It is imputed to us, which is, credited, granted freely without our earning it.  2. It provides our r...
