Jesus of Nazareth said you CANNOT enter the Kingdom of God unless you…


Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.


A man must be born of the water and the Spirit, in fact we have to have the testimony of the blood (forgiveness), water (baptism), and the Spirit (God in us) (1 John 5:8). We have to surrender to baptism and render obedience like Jesus did with John the Baptist. John the Baptist preached a message of baptism of repentance for the remission of sins and to bring forth fruits worthy of repentance. Jesus needed no forgiveness, nor did He have to repent of anything. Yet, John the Baptist was a prophet from God sent to the Jewish people, to pave the way for Jesus’s message one must be born of the water and the Spirit. Anyway, Jesus did not need to repent or be forgiven, yet had to obey the message of the prophet John, because Jesus was a Jew and had to obey Jewish law. John said I need to be baptized of you, but Jesus said allow it to fulfill all righteousness. Meaning I know, I have no need of obeying the command to be forgiven or to repent, but if I do not obey the prophet’s message, I will sin. SO, although He needed no forgiveness nor repentance, He obeyed the prophets message out of shear obedience. Today, we must be baptized for the remission of sins even out of shear obedience (Acts 22:16).


Luk 18:17 Verily I say unto you, whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.


Like a child in diapers cannot clean himself, neither can we. We are completely dependent on God our Shepherd for the basic necessities of life and health. We do not decide what Is true but must conduct ourselves in truth and spirit in all matters revealed. Just like a child says, Daddy, may I? Daddy, can I? Daddy, will you? Daddy look, what they did to me? Daddy, I hurt? So forth and so on, just as a child we depend on and learn to trust in Jesus of Nazareth being our only Shepherd and our only Supply. Therefore, I say Jesus meet our soul’s deepest needs, because we know not what is good for our own souls but You and Your Father and Spirit, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name Amen.


Mat 5:20 For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.


Many of the self-righteous think it is up to them to be God in motion, and love to be the authority or boss of matters concerning doctrine. Many quote the scripture and forget the heavier matters of God. I have always striven to major in the majors and minor in the minor things of God. When Jesus gave the parable of the talents, he ended the discourse with an end of time Judgement Scene, only the ones that feed Him, clothed Him, gave Him drink, and visited for Him while He was sick and or in prison were the ones who faithfully used their talents God gives everyman and was granted Life Eternal in Heaven. These are the talents God expects us to use, after Loving God first, the second greatest command is to love you neighbor as yourself. Let us be doers of Jesus word so we can be His hands and feet, let us never take our will over His. So, some people are the rock in the stream of water, ounce broken open they all dry inside, but wet on the outside. We got to let the Truth of Jesus permeate our core. We cannot trust anyone with our souls other than Jesus of Nazareth, He is the only True and Faithful qualified to atone and save from sin.


Luk 14:26-27 If any man cometh unto me, and hates not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. (27) Whosoever doth not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.


What a tough saying, Jesus demands not to be in heart but to own and rule it. Jesus demands first place, and He will always do what is best for your soul. He job is to get us into Heaven not Harvard. Jesus will be our enough our everything we need nothing but Him for life and godliness. Jesus said if you believe in Him, you will never hunger or thirst. Jesus says if you seek first the kingdom of God, you will have enough. We cannot pay for the sin debts of our family and loved ones, we cannot even pay our own sin debt, we must abide faithful to Jesus alone, even if our mom or dads ask us to do something wrong. Let Jesus be our enough for our spiritual life (godliness) and physical life, Amen.


Father, please remove anything that hinders us from entering into the Kingdom of God and help us stay faithful this day, bring to memory any we need to reconcile to You and ourselves, we beg for mercy and forgiveness, and we forgive those who have sinned against us, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name Amen.


It is written in Eze 18:4-9, “(4) Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die. (5) But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right, (6) and hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbor's wife, neither hath come near to a woman in her impurity, (7) and hath not wronged any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge, hath taken nought by robbery, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment; (8) he that hath not given forth upon interest, neither hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true justice between man and man, (9) hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept mine ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord Jehovah.” ASV


In some of the worst of times, these words came to the prophet Ezekiel of how a man could survive when Israel as a whole nation, was taken captive and introduced to foreign or false gods in a land that was giving over to rebellion and idolatry, a time of complete apostasy. A time where God let His enemies' rule correct His so-called children by taking them captive, God said this:


If a man behaves this way, he will live:


Just defined: Just (as in treating people fairly), righteous, or lawful.


1. He has not participated in idolatry by eating their foods offered to their gods or joined in their celebrations to their gods.

2. He has not participated in idolatry by “wishing” or looking at their idols for better

3. He as not defiled his neighbor’s wife, but been faithful.

4. He has not had sex while his wife is menstruating.

5. He has not wronged any but has kept his part of the deal. A man of his word.

6. He has not robbed anyone.

7. He has fed the hungry.

8. He clothed the naked.

9. He did not profit by a loan by interest or material gain, due to someone else’s misfortune.

10. He learns not to sin against God, does not participate in sin with others.

11. He has treating people justly among other men in matters of dispute or arguments.

12. He has walked in my statues and ordinances (law of God), in our time: the New Testament (Covenant or agreement), to deal with others in truth.


The man in the midst of idolatry and rebellion, who does these things will live.


This was the prescription in one of the worse of moral declines of society. Go and DO likewise in the name of Jesus of Nazareth.


Father help us survive and be faithful unto the end of the Age, and we are grateful of your promise in Your Son, He will be with us unto the end of the age and the gates of hell will not prevail against His church, please change your mind and grant us repentance and renew our minds here in America, instead of giving us over to a reprobate mind, and we beg for redemption, reconciliation, salvation, and adoption, please remove anything that hinders our salvation, we renounce satan and anything that is not Jesus, and ask You to meet our soul’s deepest need for Your own name sake, so we can remain faithful and be saved, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.


Please ask Jesus of Nazareth to confirm this truth to you and please comment and direct questions below:

It is written Mat 9:12-13, “But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. (13) But go ye and learn what that means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”


Jesus of Nazareth is the greatest of physicians because He is God and Lord of all. Jesus of Nazareth, is the Author of Salvation and He can write you a plan of redemption, reconciliation, and salvation. Have you asked Him to give you the prescription, remedy, and cure for your soul’s deepest needs?


Mat 11:28-30, “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (29) Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. (30) For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Jesus said, Mar 16:15-16, “And he said unto them, go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. (16) He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.”


Have you heard the good news that Jesus of Nazareth, He lived under the law of good and evil, taught to us by the Jewish nation: the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; Jesus of Nazareth never choose to do a wrong thing, He remained sinless and was the words and intentions of God in body form walking around. Jesus being the only Fathered of our Creator, was made perfect and remained sinless, having never choose evil. Jesus laid down His life as a sacrifice for you and me to become a substitute for your sins and my sins. Jesus laid down His life as a free will sacrifice in order to provide you and me a way of to be reconciled between God and mankind. Our Creator was so pleased, with the offering of Jesus, He established a New Agreement between God and mankind, called the New Testament of Christ and Jesus of Nazareth was raised the third day after dying on the cross as proof He is the only Way to the Father.


Do you believe Jesus of Nazareth died on the cross and was raised from the dead three days later? Yes, or no?


Will you take the yoke of Christ upon you? Will you learn to follow Jesus, who is the Way, The Truth. And Life (John 14:6)? Yes, or no?


Will you be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38-39), so Jesus can wash your sins away? Yes, or no?


Father, we pray that you would meet our souls’ deepest needs and forgive us and show us mercy, we forgive all those that wronged us, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name, amen.
