READ PREFACE, INDEX


But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matt. 6:33)

If you want to find Christ you must first find his church. 
(Martin Luther)


HOW TO GET SINS FORGIVEN


When Jesus was as a man upon this world, He could give sins forgiven. The power to forgive sins is given to Jesus' owns. After death of Jesus, through his owns, Jesus forgives sins, not right from heaven. Jesus lives in his owns, there where two or three have come together, Jesus is among them until the end of the world. The congregation, alive in Holy Spirit, is the body of Christ. 

Antichrists: There are many false christs upon this world today saying Christ is here and there, but do not believe! They do not accept, that Jesus has come into flesh, into His owns, into His conregation, into His body, who are able to forgive sins out of full grace without merits and works of one's own, by the power of Holy Spirit.

When You first yourself have received and believed in the power of the Holy Spirit proclaimed gospel, the core of which is the absolution, the remission of sins and so get the Holy Spirit, You can then declare gospel to others by the authority of Jesus with the following words: In the name and blood of Jesus are (believe) all your sins forgiven! 


It then leads to the improvement of life, the desire to fight against sin. As the fruit of faith, one gives up sin, uses the confession, corrects the transgressions with fellows and, where appropriate, take care of things with the magistrates. The alive faith leads to the love of God and His owns and neighbors and acts of love with a pure heart. In spite of that, sins attach and we may fall and so we need again and again forgiveness of sins.


Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when he had said this, he breathed on them , and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

Matt. 16:19
And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Rom. 10:17
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.


Gal. 3:2
This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

Gal. 3:5
He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

Mark 3:28-29

Luke 9:6
And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

Rom. 1:1
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; [with: or, in]

Rom. 1:15
So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? [our report: Gr. the hearing of us?] [report: or, preaching?]

As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

Rom. 16:25
Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

1. Cor. 4:15
For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

1. Cor. 9:12
If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

1. Cor. 9:14
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

1. Cor. 9:16
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

1. Cor. 9:17
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

1. Cor. 9:18
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2. Cor. 2:12
Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,

2. Cor. 4:3

2. Cor. 10:14
For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure , as though we reached not unto you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel of Christ:

2. Cor. 10:16
To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's line of things made ready to our hand. [line: or, rule]

2. Cor. 11:4

2. Cor. 11:7
Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?

Gal. 1:6-9
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
Gal. 1:11
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

Gal. 2:2
And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain. [privately: or, severally]

Gal. 2:5
To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

Gal. 2:7
But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

Gal. 2:14
But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

Gal. 3:8
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying , In thee shall all nations be blessed.

Gal. 4:13
Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.

Eph. 1:13
In whom ye also trusted , after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

Eph. 3:6
That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Eph. 6:15
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

Eph. 6:19
And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

Phil. 1:5
For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

Phil. 1:7
Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace. [I have...: or, ye have me in your heart] [of my...: or, with me of grace]

Phil. 1:12
But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

Phil. 1:17
But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

Phil. 1:27
Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

Phil. 2:22
But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.

Phil. 4:3
And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.

Phil. 4:15
Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

Col. 1:5
For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;

Col. 1:23
If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;

1. Thess. 1:5
For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.

1. Thess. 2:2
But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.

1. Thess. 2:4
But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

1. Thess. 2:8
So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.

1. Thess. 2:9
For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

1. Thess. 3:2
And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith:

2. Thess. 1:8
In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [taking: or, yielding]

2. Thess. 2:14
Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

1. Tim. 1:11
According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

2. Tim. 1:8
Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;

2. Tim. 1:10
But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:

2. Tim. 2:8
Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

Philem. 1:13
Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

Hebr. 4:2
For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it . [the word...: Gr. the word of hearing] [not being...: or, because they were not united by faith to]

1. Pet. 1:12
Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

1. Pet. 1:25
But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

Mark 4:26

Mark 9:47
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: [offend...: or, cause thee to offend]

And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

Luke 10:9
And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

Luke 10:11
Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

Luke 11:20
But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.

Luke 12:31
But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Luke 13:18
Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?

Luke 18:16
But Jesus called them unto him , and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

2. Thess.


1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;

4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:

5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;

7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [his...: Gr. the angels of his power]

8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [taking: or, yielding]

9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: [count: or, vouchsafe]

12 That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
