  • Jesus crucified Himself and He forgave all of our sins,

  • so, due to His salvation, we will enter the kingdom of heaven.

  • However, the Lord Jesus hasn't forgiven or excused their corrupt disposition,

  • and hasn't rid them of their corrupt nature which resulted in their sin.

  • Much less did He say whoever is forgiven of his sins can enter the kingdom of heaven.

  • It is written,

  • Amen!

  • Amen!

  • And more we have already got evidence that

  • we have been gained by God,

  • which to me begs the question:

  • Is there a need for the Lord to come and do new work?

  • We're taught by Jesus very clearly and very plainly,

  • Amen!

  • Since we are all believers in Him,

  • every one of us has received His salvation,

  • and are entitled to the inheritance of the Lord's kingdom.

  • Are you honestly sitting there and denying the word in our Bible?

  • That's just it.

  • Haven't we already gained our salvation by the Lord God?

  • How can there possibly be a new work?

  • I agree! The salvation of Jesus is enough!

  • The salvation of Jesus is the full salvation of God.

  • It's simply impossible that God does new work.

  • You can't do this. Your conclusion is groundless.

  • That's right. We can't have doubt on this.

  • Everyone, yes, it is true that we, all of us,

  • have been saved by believing in Jesus.

  • Yet what did the Lord Jesus mean by "being saved"?

  • In which condition was this word said?

  • It means, of course, that Lord Jesus has saved us,

  • and that He, our loving Savior, has delivered us from sin!

  • Everyone, let us fellowship about

  • the background in which the Lord Jesus said, "being saved."

  • As we all know, at the end of the Age of Law,

  • people committed more and more sin, and no longer feared God.

  • They could no longer keep the law,

  • facing the danger of being condemned and executed under the law.

  • In order to free people from the threat of death,

  • God was incarnated to do a stage of redemptive work personally,

  • to redeem people from sin.

  • And since then, people could be forgiven of their sins,

  • once they accepted Jesus as their Savior.

  • They would no longer be condemned and punished

  • because they broke the law.

  • They could pray to God directly and receive His grace.

  • That's the true meaning of "being saved" in the Age of Grace.

  • Speaking of "being saved,"

  • let us all read what Almighty God has to say about it.

  • Pastor Cho.

  • Pastor Han.

  • Please all turn to page 477.

  • From Almighty God's word we can learn:

  • The work that Lord Jesus did in the Age of Grace is redemption.

  • That is, Jesus provided Himself to be the sin offering forever,

  • redeeming people from Satan.

  • As long as people believe in Him, their sins will be forgiven,

  • and they will not be condemned and punished

  • for their sins under the law.

  • However, it's true that

  • Jesus didn't solve the cause of people's committing sins.

  • He didn't do the work of purifying and transforming man.

  • So, those who were saved through grace

  • can't stop committing sins.

  • It requires God to do a further work of salvation

  • before they can be purified.

  • This flies in the face of the Bible.

  • It is written,

  • Amen!

  • Jesus crucified Himself and He forgave all of our sins,

  • so, due to His salvation, we will enter the kingdom of heaven.

  • This cannot be doubted.

  • That is correct! Hebrews 1:3 says,

  • Amen!

  • The Lord Jesus Himself forgave us all of sins on the cross.

  • And He would never ever treat us like we were sinners.

  • That's because we belong to God already!

  • I am not denying people haven't ability to overcome sin.

  • Even people who have found redemption continue to sin.

  • It's true. We all will admit this.

  • However, here is the bottom line

  • Christ's salvation is full, true and reliable.

  • That's true, the Lord Jesus doesn't remember our sin.

  • Doesn't that mean we are gained by God?

  • We clearly know that it is the Lord Jesus

  • who has redeemed us and forgiven us of all of our sins.

  • Brothers and sisters,

  • it's true that Lord Jesus has redeemed us from Satan's domain

  • and we are forgiven of our sins and are no longer of sin.

  • But still, we should know exactly what "sin" refers to.

  • Don't tell me you're about to explain to us

  • what's meant by the unfamiliar term "sin."

  • Those against the law and Ten Commandments are all sins!

  • As people sinned,

  • they would receive the condemnation and punishment of the law.

  • The Lord Jesus came to work

  • just for the redemption of all mankind,

  • so that they were forgiven of their sins

  • and not punished by the law.

  • However, the Lord Jesus hasn't forgiven or excused their corrupt disposition,

  • and hasn't rid them of their corrupt nature

  • which resulted in their sin.

  • Much less did He say

  • whoever is forgiven of his sins can enter the kingdom of heaven.

  • Instead, He admonished people that,

  • The Lord Jesus has very clearly explained to us:

  • He that keeps the word of the Lord and walks the way of the Lord

  • can enter into the kingdom of heaven.

  • It is also written,

  • These verses tell us very plainly:

  • If people believe in Jesus' name

  • but do not also practice His word,

  • the sin offerings become a void to them.

  • How can it ever be possible for them to enter God's kingdom?

  • Stop right there!

  • Paul said,

  • Amen!

  • We are not, any of us, going to be condemned at all

  • because we have accepted Jesus in our hearts.

  • And we will be entering the Lord's kingdom!

  • Are you actually still going to deny it?

  • That's true, the Lord Jesus didn't remember our sin!

  • What qualification do you have to condemn us?

  • Pastor Han,

  • about whether one is able to enter into the kingdom of heaven,

  • we need to determine what it should be based on.

  • The question is:

  • Should it be based on man's word, or on God's word?

  • Another question we need to address is:

  • Whose word has authority, Paul's word or Jesus' word?

  • Who is He that guards the gate of the kingdom?

  • Since we all believe in God

  • and we all seek the way of eternal life,

  • we should clearly take the word of God as the criterion,

  • rather than making decisions based on the word of man.

  • If God receives a person to His eternal kingdom

  • who is still resisting and rebelling against Him,

  • where is God's holiness and where is God's righteousness?

  • God is a holy God and He is a righteous God,

  • and His disposition does not tolerate man's offense.

  • So, judging by God's disposition,

  • those who received Jesus' redemption

  • aren't able to enter God's kingdom yet.

  • It is a fact!

  • And as we all know the Lord Jesus said,

  • Jesus' words teach us very plainly:

  • Those who commit sins

  • are not qualified to remain in the kingdom of God.

  • Almighty God also says,

  • It is important for us to ponder why God chose to do this.

  • The intention of God saving mankind

  • is to gain a group of holy mankind.

  • If they are of sin and if they are of filth,

  • then by God's own word

  • they are not entitled to enter the kingdom.

  • This is determined by God's righteous disposition.

  • So, those who were forgiven of their sins

  • and saved through the grace,

  • are still in need of a further work of purification and of salvation,

  • if they want to enter the kingdom of heaven.

  • Did I hear you mention "a further work of salvation" just now?

  • Jesus Himself said upon the cross, "It is finished."

  • Those were His words. What is it that you think He meant?

  • Is it your position

  • that Jesus wasn't then able to grant us salvation?

  • What you're doing is boldly denying both our Savior's word

  • and the most important work He ever performed!

  • Truly, the Lord Jesus said clearly

  • that God's salvation work was finished.

  • Yes, it's what the Lord Jesus said personally.

  • You can't just deny it!

  • Pastor Cho, none of us are denying

  • these words were said by the Lord Jesus.

  • When the Lord Jesus said those words "it is finished,"

  • He was speaking of the redemptive work

  • He finished in the Age of Grace.

  • However, this doesn't indicate

  • God's entire management plan to save all of mankind.

  • We all know that, about the Lord's returning in the end time,

  • the Lord Jesus had spoken the Parable of the Sower,

  • the Parable of the Net,

  • and the Parable of the Wise Virgins,

  • and the Parable of the Bad Tenants, and many others as well.

  • It is also prophesied in Revelation that in the end time

  • the Lord will do the work of reaping and selecting,

  • and the work of judgment.

  • If the Lord Jesus had accomplished all the work of salvation,

  • then how is it work of this kind could be done?

  • Therefore, when the Lord Jesus said "it is finished,"

  • His meaning was the redemptive work had been finished,

  • yet He wasn't saying

  • all of mankind's salvation and all of God's work had been finished.

  • Hmm, everything you just said seems reasonable.

  • The Lord Jesus hadn't done the end-time work.

  • Ah, so the word "it is finished" said by the Lord Jesus

  • actually meant that

  • the redemptive work of the Lord had been accomplished,

  • but not that all the work was finished.

  • How come we didn't find out?

  • Let us read two paragraphs of Almighty God's words.

  • Please turn to page 791 in

  • What? Just a small part?

  • Yeah!

  • That's impossible!

  • Please open

  • and turn to page 588.

  • Only a half? Didn't Jesus say clearly "it is finished"?

  • Just stop!

  • You're still just sitting there and denying the work of Christ.

  • Pastor Han, please let us calm down.

  • Let Brother Jung keep reading the word of God.

  • Yes, Pastor Han,

  • can you please do us the honor of listening first?

  • Pastor Han, let's listen some more.

  • How can you sit there and say that about the Lord Jesus?

  • The Lord Jesus was crucified on the cross

  • and He redeemed the whole of mankind,

  • but now you're saying He only completed a part.

  • What you're saying is unacceptable.

  • While it's true sins are committed by men,

  • Jesus Christ, our Lord redeemed mankind upon the cross.

  • This is an absolute fact!

  • Everyone, even if Jesus' sin offering

  • continues to be effective for mankind forever,

  • the truth is, I tell you that

  • Jesus' work was not the work that saves men absolutely from sin.

  • From Almighty God's words we can see that,

  • indeed, the redemptive work of Jesus

  • only completes half of the work of saving mankind.

  • It has only laid the groundwork,

  • the foundation for God's end-time work.

  • Actually, although everyone who Jesus has redeemed

  • has been forgiven for all their sins,

  • there still remains their corrupt nature,

  • deeply-rooted, and very much driving them.

  • Their disposition is still filled with arrogance and self-conceit,

  • selfishness, craftiness, jealousy, aggressiveness, and lust.

  • All still worship evil, revere money, position,

  • fame and worldly gain.

  • They pursue a luxurious and decadent life,

  • and enjoy indulging in the pleasure of sin.

  • They also have no patience and tolerance for others.

  • They even find it hard to get along with their own families.

  • Living like this, in such a state,

  • they cannot even hope to practice the truth

  • even if they know the Bible.

  • They're trapped in sins involuntarily, without self-control.

  • You see, if mankind's sinful nature has yet to be eliminated,

  • then, God's work of salvation hasn't come to an end.

  • Their words are absolutely right. They are all facts!

  • Yes, it is very true that people commit sins

  • and live in sin every day without ever being released.

  • So it must be that

  • God continues the work of salvation in every man.

  • People can't overcome their sins

  • if they try to do it by themselves, which I freely admit.

  • But I don't understand how you can just deny God's word,

  • and even more than doing this, deny His salvation!

  • Those saved through grace often commit sins

  • just because they are still going through

  • the process of transformation.

  • If we can rely on His power working for improvement,

  • then we will eventually reach the state of holiness.

  • This process is called, listen: "Sanctification of Salvation."

  • Did you ever hear of it?

  • Pastor Han, we don't deny that many people in the Lord

  • have paid quite a price to cast off all of their sins.

  • Some have tried hard to refrain themselves from committing sins.

  • And some have even studied the Bible all of their lives,

  • trying to seek a way out of sins.

  • To sin no more, they have made a lot of effort.

  • They often confess to the Lord, fast and pray,

  • yet what is the result of all of this?

  • And now who truly dares to say that he has broken away from sins

  • and become holy in the eyes of the Lord?

  • Pastor Han, I think we should discuss this issue.

  • Let's think about this:

  • if Jesus hadn't done the work of the Age of Grace,

  • even if all of mankind pursued for thousands of years

  • in the Age of Law,

  • he couldn't gain God's grace of redemption.

  • So why would that be the case?

  • Why in the world do we need to discuss

  • such a simple elementary question?

  • I understand, Pastor Han.

  • But it relates to one aspect of the truth, and needs us to know.

  • What I mean by that is

  • man's disposition changes constantly with God's work.

  • To the extent which God works,

  • to that extent mankind is transformed.

  • I want this to be clear,

  • so let me explain it to you in another way:

  • If God does not work,

  • mankind's transformation will remain at a standstill.

  • It's just as in the Age of Law,

  • God's work was to issue the laws

  • and have people know and understand what were sins.

  • His work was not to redeem.

  • So, people in the Age of Law

  • couldn't gain God's grace of redemption

  • no matter how hard they pursued.

  • However, when the Lord Jesus finished the work of redemption,

  • all people could gain the Lord's grace of forgiveness

  • for nothing as long as they accepted Jesus as their Savior.

  • Similarly,

  • if God doesn't do the work of purifying and transforming man,

  • those redeemed by Jesus Christ

  • can't rid themselves of sins and become holy,

  • however hard they pursue and discipline their body.

  • It's because Jesus only did the work of redemption,

  • but didn't resolve the problem

  • of men's committing sins completely.

  • And the work of resolving man's sinfulness

  • is what God will accomplish in the end time.

  • I can't rid myself of sins.

  • Is this because the Lord Jesus

  • hasn't done the work of purifying and transforming man?

  • So, only when man accepts God's end-time work of salvation,

  • can he have his disposition transformed and become holy.

  • So then, according to your words,

  • did the Lord Jesus do His work of salvation in vain?

  • And does it follow then that people believe in Jesus in vain?

  • Everybody, please try to calm down.

  • We all believe and we would never deny Jesus' salvation.

  • The Lord Jesus has redeemed mankind from sins.

  • This is an undeniable fact.

  • However, God will not finish the work of salvation in one step.

  • He does it by stages and He does it by ages,

  • and it progresses step by step.

  • By stages? You must be kidding.

  • The work of God is uplifted

  • and it continues to deepen at every stage.

  • They're complementary and indispensable to each other.

  • Each stage of work lays the foundation for the next stage.

  • And there lies God's wisdom.

  • For example,

  • the work of knowing sins that Jehovah did in the Age of Law

  • laid the foundation of the work of redemption in the Age of Grace.

  • And the redemptive work Jesus did laid the foundation

  • for God's end-time work of removing man's sins.

  • Humph!

  • Pastor Han, without Jesus' redemption,

  • we, corrupt mankind, couldn't be forgiven of our sins.

  • However,

  • without God's further purification and salvation in the end time,

  • men redeemed by God will have no way

  • to get rid of sins and be saved.

  • Hmm, now this fellowship is sounding reasonable.

  • That is to say, if we accept God's end-time work of salvation,

  • it doesn't mean that we are in fact denying Jesus' salvation?

  • Yes. After we are redeemed by Jesus' sacrifice,

  • we continue to receive God's further salvation,

  • just to completely be free of all of our sins,

  • and just to simply be saved.

  • To underscore that point, here are Almighty God's words.

  • Please turn to page 583 in

  • And now please, turn to page 789.

  • Almighty God's words have clearly said that

  • men who have just been redeemed

  • have not received a full salvation,

  • and cannot enter God's kingdom.

  • Only if they accept God's end-time work of salvation,

  • if they have their corrupt disposition resolved

  • and break away from sins completely,

  • can they be saved and finally receive God's full inheritance.

Jesus crucified Himself and He forgave all of our sins,
