Understanding Inheriting the Kingdom of God; Galatians 5:19-21, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 and Ephesians 5:5-8 KJV

 The following 3 scriptures have weighed heavily on my heart for years now because I know during my early years as a Christian I suffered from fear of these scriptures and now as a mature Christian the Lord has placed a burden on my heart to teach others the truth of the meaning of these scriptures.  God bless all who are good Bereans and are searching for the truth.

 

Galatians 5:19-21

King James Version

¹⁹ Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

²⁰ Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

²¹ Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

 

 

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

King James Version

⁹ Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

¹⁰ Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

¹¹ And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

Ephesians 5:5-8 KJV

⁵ For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

⁶ Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

⁷ Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

⁸ For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

Most Bible teachers and these so called pastors teach that if you as a Christian commit any of the list of sins mentioned by Paul in scriptures above, then you will go to hell. Period!  Some teach that if you have a habit of committing these sins you'll go to hell.  In any case, commission is damnation of your eternal soul.

 As I mature more as a Christian I find myself meditating and praying over my Bible to carefully digest scripture and under stand it thoroughly for myself.  I Meditating on God's word by II Rightly dividing the word, and applying sound III Hermeneutics & Exegesis with the IV Correct bible translation is essential.

Please read notes below on each aspect of studying the word of God.

 In studying the word of God for myself instead of being spoon fed by false teachers, let's really understand what Galatians 5:19-21. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 and Ephesians 5:5-8 KJV  are really telling us.

I.  Once we are truly saved we cannot lose our salvation. Period!  Please read my Biblical studies on Eternal Security:

 

  Salvation is secure our Eternal Security is Scripture LINK

 Our Sins (sinful nature before Salvation) are wiped clean at salvation. Eternal Salvation is NOT a process… working out our salvation in the flesh is... Know the difference.  False teachers use this against the unlearned..... Be a good Berean... LINK

 II.  Paul clearly tells us by a major clue in verse 11 of 1 Corinthians Chapter 6, "And such WERE some of you: BUT YE ARE WASHED, BUT YE ARE SANCTIFIED, BUT YE ARE JUSTIFIED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS AND BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD."

This tells us that we in our flesh are prone to sin. We as Christians reject sin, however there are times we fall. This does not determine our eternal soul to heaven or hell, but rather our inheritance. Salvation is entering the Kingdom of God. Inheriting is your rewards given by Jesus Christ at the BEMA Judgement.

III.  Please read my Blog below on understanding the difference between Inheriting the Kingdom vs Entering the Kingdom.

NOTES:

Meditating on God's Word:

quote by C.H. Spurgeon

I will meditate in Thy precepts.

—Psalm 119:15

There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in His service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. Truth is something like the cluster of the vine: if we would have wine from it, we must bruise it; we must press and squeeze it many times. The bruiser's feet must come down joyfully upon the bunches, or else the juice will not flow; and they must well tread the grapes, or else much of the precious liquid will be wasted. So we must, by meditation, tread the clusters of truth, if we would get the wine of consolation therefrom. Our bodies are not supported by merely taking food into the mouth, but the process which really supplies the muscle, and the nerve, and the sinew, and the bone, is the process of digestion. It is by digestion that the outward food becomes assimilated with the inner life. Our souls are not nourished merely by listening awhile to this, and then to that, and then to the other part of divine truth. Hearing, reading, marking, and learning, all require inwardly digesting to complete their usefulness, and the inward digesting of the truth lies for the most part in meditating upon it. Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord, and be this our resolve this morning, "I will meditate in Thy precepts." 

 

Rightly Dividing God's Word:  2 Timothy 2:15 KJV  

To rightly divide the word of God is to use the proper dispensation: Here's a great study on the dispensations of the Bible:

 disclaimer:  Although Dr. Gene Kim is a solid KJV and Dispensation teacher, I do not agree with Dr Kim on all he teaches especially his Baptist Church and the 501C3 brick and mortar stance.  Please see my study on Dr. Kim's errant teachings:

I don't go to church: from a blood bought, born again Christian with over 50 years of going to church

December 21, 2018

Dear People,

These 501c3 brick and mortar buildings  (and even those run under private or limited liability corp) run by apostate trained CEOs called pastors are not BIBLICAL.  They are literally making Merchandise of you and your children and your children's heritage. They are cursed by God under both Galatians 1:8,9 and 2 Peter 2:3... In fact 2 Peter 2:3, literally says these false teachers through feigned (study the word feigned: invented. fake.  counterfeit. deception. fictitious. ) words make merchandise of you...

I've completed an 800 page Ebook containing over a thousand references, several thousand pages of source documentation titled: " I don't go to church. A 50 year testimony of attending church to say in agreement with Dr. Larkin, that today's churches are building the kingdom of the Antichrist. " see note 1 below...  If anyone wants this open public  domain book. I will email you a copy for free. Email me your request to vietrandy@gmail.com.  Amazon lists it for $0.99. We wanted to post it for free. But Amazon requires a fee.  If you order, please know any profit goes to sending out more free copies.

But this church-going issue has now become my focus.  I'm a retired US naval officer,  and finished a career in  consulting. and recently retired from teaching High school as a licensed teacher.  I also spent years living in other countries, including over 6 yrs in Vietnam sharing Jesus with the Vietnamese people. 

Here's my testimony below:

To God be the glory Forever! Amen!
Maranatha!
