You don't need works to be saved is false gospel, friend.

Thats you promoting a False Gospel ! A Man is Saved by Grace apart from His works..Rom 11:5-6

5Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

6And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

Gospel Obedience is the end of evangelism. Paul states that here Rom 1:5

By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:

Rom 16:26

But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:

That the Preaching of the Gospel would call forth the Born Again One's Grace evidencing Effects or Fruit; For example, when the imperative was given to Lazarus to come forth, how was Lazarus able to comply, was it as a dead man or one who had miraculously made alive by Him that was the Resurrection and the Life? Without doubt He was made alive, and so His obedience gave evidence of Life from Christ, and so it is with Gospel obedience to the spiritually alive in Christ, it gives evidence of His imparted Life. On the day of Pentecost, Peter in preaching the Gospel, gave the command to repent and be baptized to those who were evidencing New Life from the Spirit, that Jesus Christ at the Right Hand of God had just shed forth Acts 2:33,38

33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Peter know from scripture prophecy that God had promised to pour out His Spirit on a Seed Isa 44:3

3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:

That Christ died for our Sins !

In order for Christ to die for our sins, they had to be first laid to His Charge !

Just when did Christ become the Surety for all whom died, that is died for their sins as Per 1 Cor 15:3

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

As Surety, when did He officially take on the Legal responsibility of their sins ?

We CANNOT come before a, "Righteous and Holy God" with our works... You're wrong. Works come, after a person has been "born again Spiritually," not before...

You dannot separate faithf and works. Trins have too many false gospel. BTW, this is what Calvin, your evil leader tought. You are following this evil man too, GM.

Preaching Christ the Foundation Stone !

1 Cor 3:10-11

10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Preaching Christ the foundation Stone, The OT mentions a Foundation Stone Isa 28:16

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

Thats why it reads in Eph 2:20

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Isaiah Preached Christ as we just read in Isa 28:16, of which the Apostle Peter quotes here 1 Pet 2:6

6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture[OT], Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

And the Apostle Paul here Rom 9:33

33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. See Isa 8:14

Now no doubt about it, it is the Lord Jesus Christ who is this Foundational Stone. It also mentions being laid in Zion. What is Zion ? Zion is a Type of the Church, the Elect or Chosen. It's the Temple of God, Christ being the Corner Stone Eph 2:20-21

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Zion was a Hill in Jerusalem where the Temple was Built !

So, now the Holy Temple is the Church, composed of jews and gentiles who are believers, Chosen Believers Eph 1:4

4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Christ being the Chief Cornerstone, that is Zion !

Who laid this foundation ?

It is only appropriate to know [in preaching the Gospel] who laid this Foundation, which is Christ; well who speaks in the Prophecy Isa 28:16

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

No man could have laid this foundation 1 Cor 3:11

11For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Next, the Preacher should know When this foundation was Laid by The Eternal Jehovah !! When was this Foundation, which is Christ, and which the Salvation of Zion [The Church] depends ? Scripture informs us that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Lamb Slain from the foundation of the world Rev 13:8, so this foundation was laid before the the world began because of this it's support verse 1 Pet 1:20

20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

Now in Eternity Past, Christ the Foundation Stone was laid in the Eternal Counsels of the Everlasting Covenant, Where He was the Designated the Surety Lamb Shepherd for the Sheep. At this Unknown Time the Triune Jehovah determined that the Zion of God, the Church, comprised of Chosen men and women of every tribe, nation, and tongue, should be Eternally Redeemed by the Person and Work, of the Chief Cornerstone, Christ Jesus the Lord ! These things should be included in the Gospel of Christ !

In a previous post, I asked the question:

As Surety, when did He officially take on the Legal responsibility of their sins ?

The answer is, it was before the foundation of the World, when He Covenanted as Surety in the agreement of the Everlasting Covenant. That is when Christ became Legally liable for the Sins of the World He was to die for. And as a result of that, God was not able to impute sin to that world, because of the Suretyship of It's Shepherd ! So Paul writes 2 Cor 5:19

To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

How could God justly impute sin to a world that He imputed their sins to Christ for Him to die in its Place ? God's Justice and Righteousness will not allow it. So everyone in this particular World in view in 2 Cor 5:19, not one of them ever legally had sin imputed to their charge.

Paul describes them in Two Places #1 Rom 4:8

8Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

#2 Rom 8:33

33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

God legally Justified this World of the Elect When he Purposed in the Eternal Counsels of the Everlasting Covenant, to lay its sins on the charge of it's Covenant Head and Surety, the Lord Jesus Christ. Now God is not fickle minded like us, Once He determined to Punish the Surety for the Sheep's Sins, then the Sheep are exonerated ! They owe nothing to God's Law and Justice, but only does their Surety, He must Pay with His Life ! And that was the Purpose of His Coming into the World, to pay the debt He owed to God;'s Law and Justice, for the Sheep ! Jn 10:11

11I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

Why Preach Faith and Repentance ?

Paul said Acts 20:21

21Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

The word testifying here is the greek word diamartyromai and means:
to testify

a) earnestly, religiously to charge

2) to attest, testify to, solemnly affirm

a) to give solemn testimony to one

b) to confirm a thing by testimony, to testify, cause it to be believed

Notice, it means cause it to be believed !


Remember Paul said to the Thessalonians 2 Thess 1:10

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.

Was believed is Passive voice, so was caused to believe !

Also, 1 Cor 1:6

Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

The Testimony of the Gospel is what was confirmed in them !

The Testimony of the Gospel is made sure in all for whom Christ died, they will be caused to believe it ! That is also what Paul means here 1 Tim 2:6

6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

All for whom Christ was a ransomed for, shall have the Testimony of it confirmed in them by the Gospel, the Gospel of their Salvation Eph 1:13

Consequently, this turns them from their idols, to belief in the Truth. 1 Thess 1:4-9

4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.

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.

6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.

7 So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.

8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.

9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;

Note vs 6 How they received the word with Joy of the Holy Ghost ! That proves they had been born of the Spirit in order to receive the word with Joy of the Holy Ghost, Two of His Fruits were made evident, Faith and Joy Gal 5:22

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

lets add longsuffering as well, since Paul said they received it [the word] with much affliction !

The Apostle's Preached Faith and Repentance as commandments to every Born Again sinner to make evident their Sonship, their calling and Election, which they had a right to because they had been born of God Jn 1:12-13

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

Beware!

A Christian is any human who is led into his works by precisely what the Spirit has in mind for him to pray for, say and do as discerned, in real time, all the time,through his own heart or spirit. This is discerned directly from the Spirit within his own heart or spirit. To be led into one's works in this manner is to be under grace of God. One under grace of God do not have trials. Grace is the end of all trials. To be under grace is to be in God's heaven on earth.

However do not be thrown by this information. Fact is that very few (in and out of traditional Christianity) have achieved Grace of God. Jesus did say that many are called but few chosen. Seems that people achieve varying levels of Grace of God. Yet it is not that grace of God is elusive. It is simply that the technique for achieving Grace of God has been eroded and eventually lost under the domination of Christianity by Peter and his descendants. Jesus did say that many false prophets will come in His name and misguide many.

However, rest assured that the technique for coming into grace of God is well recorded in the KJV N.T. The problem is that the technique for coming under Grace of God was undermined and denied by Peter and his descendants who were essentially Satan and they controlled what passed for Christianity for the past 2000 odd years. Peter who was identified to be Satan by Jesus in early days was given the commission for the people like himself. Peter was given the commission for the unaware who must be under the gospel of circumcision. The gospel of circumcision is righteousness of God under the law (i.e. the Ten Commandments). This is not the Christian commission. This is a remade Moses-ian commission. This is for the very great masses of people who were not and are not yet given by God to know Truth. These masses of people are just like those who Moses led back then. These kind of people still existed when Jesus was physically on earth. They continue to exist on earth up to this day.

At that time those who were given by God to know Truth were very few. In fact these few were Jesus' disciples. Up to this day there are still few of them on earth.

It was quire simple. Those who were not given by God to know Truth were given the gospel of circumcision under Peter. This is Jesus' Moses-ian church. Those who were given by God to know Truth were given the gospel of un-circumcision under Paul. This is Jesus Christian church. These are two different churches. One is seen and the other unseen. One is physically manifested and the other not physically manifested. One under physically/intellectually discernible ideals, laws and canons like the Ten Commandments and the other under the intuitively discerned, unseen Spirit of Jesus.

Peter's and Paul's commission were and are different. Christianity was given to Paul under the gospel of un-circumcision. The Gospel of un-circumcision is righteousness of God without the law. Peter and his descendants literally ripped away and stole Christianity from Paul. Then they very erroneously projected that both the gospel of circumcision and the gospel of un-circumcision were the same.

Peter and his descendants claimed and continue to claim, that both gospels were the gospel of circumcision. So they effectively banished the gospel of un-circumcision. The gospel of un-circumcision is the gospel of Grace of God. Therefore Peter and his descendant effectively banished the gospel of Grace for those seeking same from traditional Christianity. To this day that very erroneous belief (that both gospel are the same) is held and upheld to be a truth in Christianity, Peter's style. And indeed peter determined Christianity for all the world. Herein lay the cause for many being called but few being chosen for all of the past 2000 odd years. Peter and his descendants were the stream of false prophets who came in Jesus name and have been dominating what passed for Christianity for the past 2000 odd years and have been misguiding many. This is why so few are under Grace of God among aspiring Christians. This is why so few, from among the many called to Christianity, have achieved God's kingdom of heaven on earth.

This is why when one introduces a 'please pray for me' thread, most every one who call themselves Christian hit that thread with pray requests. And endless sufferings are related by them, among them.

Fact is that it is the birth right of every Christan to naturally and spontaneously create and live in God's kingdom of heaven on earth currently. No prays necessary. If this is not your living reality, you are not Christian although you are called Christian.

Yet you can be Christians if you embrace Truth and is led by Truth as discerned from the Spirit of Jesus within your own heart or spirit and drop Peter and company like hot potatoes, now before it is to late. Then you will be under grace of God. Then God's heaven will enter your life, rest assured or you will enter God's heaven, which ever.

A Righteousness is Made Known by the Gospel !

Rom 1:16-17

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

The word revealed is the greek word apokalyptō:


to uncover, lay open what has been veiled or covered up

a) disclose, make bare

2) to make known, make manifest, disclose what before was unknown

The Gospel, to those believing, discloses something to them that was previously unknown to them.

That which was made known to them was the Righteousness of God. They had it made known to them, that Christ had been made sin for them, that they may be made the Righteousness of God in Him 2 Cor 5:21

21For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Until this is made known, we as the self righteous jews did, go about to establish a righteousness of our own by our works Rom 10:3

3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

This word ignorant means:

to be ignorant, not to know

2) not to understand, unknown

3) to err or sin through mistake, to be wrong

It means something is unknown, not to know !

But when God sends someone the Gospel, it is to reveal to them, make known to them, that they have already a Righteousness given them by imputation, because of what Christ has done. They are made to understand that they need not to work for Righteousness, but , that they have a Righteousness, and they believe this fact by God given Faith !

So the Truth is this, everyone Christ died for, for whom He was made sin for 2 Cor 5:21, they all have a Unknown Righteousness of God or a Justification before God, and this is even before they are born sinners, dead in trespasses and sins. God will in His own decreed time, send to each vessel of Mercy, the Gospel, in order to make known to them, that they have a Righteousness of God, freely imputed to them, and thereby they receive it by God given Faith. Thats why Paul said in Phil 3:9

9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

What does Paul mean by"but that which is through the Faith of Christ" ? He is talking about that imputed Righteousness which is given to all whom Christ in His obedience unto death [Phil 2:8] was made sin [ a Sin Offering] in behalf of 2 Cor 5:21

21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Al for whom this is True of, they have a Unknown Righteousness of God already charged to their account; and God will send them the Good News of it, for that's the Gospel of their Salvation..

All those who already have the Imputed Righteousness of Christ laid to their charge or account, become Believers. You see, scripture states that the Just shall live by Faith or become believers !

Thats what Paul teaches Rom 1:16-17

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Now, who are the Just ? The greek word for Just is dikaios and means:

righteous, observing divine laws

It is translated righteous 41 times in the NT to include here Rom 5:19

19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Everyone Christ died for, for that's His " obedience of One here" shall be made Righteous or made Just, and so, they shall be made believers or to Live by Faith [same thing] ! Thats the promise here Rom 1:17

17For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

You see, those who had the Righteousness of God revealed to them by the Gospel, they shall Live by Faith or simply put, become Believers. So everyone and only those whom unknowingly have the Imputed Righteousness laid to their Charge or Account because of the obedience of Christ on their behalf, become Believers !

To All whom have Imputed Righteousness charged to their account, all those who did not have sin imputed to them 2 Cor 5:19,21

19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.

To all these Righteousness was Imputed to them in exchange of their sins being imputed to Christ so He could be made an Offering for them vs 21 !

21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Thats why it is ridiculous for the fallacious ministers and their followers to attempt to use 2 Cor 5:19 as a text that teaches that Christ died for everyone without exception, for the simple reason, all those of this world in 2 Cor 5:19, God does not count their sins against them, and they will never come into condemnation, so quite reasonably these here could not be part of that world Matt 7:23

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Now, back to that World of 2 Cor 5:19, they all have had Christ's Righteousness laid to their charge, and so these will have the Gospel sent to them with good news based upon imputed Righteousness, from the obedience of Christ on their behalf, and to these God gives Faith so that they can have a subjective experience of it in their consciousness !

What is the Gospel ?

The Gospel is a manifestation of the formation of the Redemption of God's Elect, and the actual achievement of it by Jesus Christ, and so it's also known as the Wisdom of God in a Mystery 1 Cor 2:7

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

The Gospel is the Wisdom of God in a Mystery, and for it to be Believed it must be spiritually discerned !

Eph 1:17

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

That repentance and remission of sins should be Preached in his name

Lk 24:45-48

45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

When Jesus said to His Disciples, that Repentance and Remission of sins should be preached in His Name, He did not mean that men and women better repent or else; No but He is saying that Repentance and Remission of Sins are benefits because of His Person and Work. These [Repentance and Remission of sins, the Knowledge of] upon all those He died for, which was not everyone without exception, but His Chosen people Israel Acts 5:31

31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

Note: These are the same Two Blessings Jesus speaks of in Lk 24:47

And they are said to be GIVEN by Him to a specific People in Acts 5:31; And this Israel of Acts 5:31 was not the Physical Israel of Ethnicity, but a Spiritual Israel of All Nations, that included some Gentiles Acts 11:18

18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

To make Repentance a condition to Salvation is a perversion of the Truth of the Gospel. Some say, does not Jesus say here Lk 13:3

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Yes indeed Jesus said that, however, that does not detract from the Gospel Truth that Christ, as Saviour from His Throne, gives Repentance unto Life to His Chosen Acts 5:31, In other words, Jesus is saying, Yes but unless I give you Repentance as Your Saviour, ye shall likewise perish !

Any True God sent Gospel preacher can not and will not fail to present a order of Gospel to include The Eternal and Unconditional Election of the Church in Christ the Chosen Seed before the world began. Christ being the Chosen Head and Mediator of His Members of His Chosen Body; hence He and they being all of One Heb 2:11

11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

When rehearsing the Gospel this is foundational ! For no other foundation can be laid other than that of Jesus Christ 1 Cor 3:11

11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Eph 2:20

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

The Gospel summed up !

The work of the Godhead in the saving of God's Elect is summed up here 1 Pet 1:1-2

1Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

All Three beings of the One Godhead at work fulfilling their respective covenantal roles in the salvation and conversion of each Elect !

The Foreknowledge of God the Father, The obedience unto death and sprinkling of blood of the Son, The High Priest, and the sanctification of the Holy Spirit, who sets apart one unto belief of the Truth 2 Thess 2:13 !

No one has any business preaching the Gospel without this Understanding of all Three Beings saving Elect sinners, this was commanded by Christ to His disciples to be Taught, to baptize with this Teaching Matt 28:19-20

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

How can this be ? How can we baptize in the Name of the Father, If we do not know His Role in Salvation, or the Son if we do not know His Role in Salvation and the Holy Ghost or Spirit if we are ignorant to His Role in saving a Soul ? These are to be Taught in the Gospel ! 2 Tim 1:9-11

9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

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:

11 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

God only reveals the Gospel to His Saints !

In order to believe the Gospel, it must first be revealed to us, as Paul said Gal 1:11-12

11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

If Christ's Righteousness has been charged to our account, then the Gospel must reveal it to us Rom 1:16-17

16For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17For therein[The Gospel] is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Lets read Col 1:24-29

24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;

26 Even the mystery [The Gospel] which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

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,

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,

Now it is not even possible for the natural man, the unregenerate man, to receive the Gospel Mystery. This is why one must be born again to receive the Truth of the Gospel, to believe it ! God only makes it manifest or reveals it to His Saints, those sanctified by the Spirit of God unto belief of the Truth 2 Thess 2:13 !

God only reveals the Gospel to His Saints !

That God only Reveals His Special Redemptive Blessings to some is seen in the OT scriptures, for they were written for the Saints, the Set apart ones in the NT , Now Paul writing to the Church, both jew and gentile believers writes: Rom 15:4

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our [Jew and Gentile Believers]learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

Now it is written Ps 147:19-20

19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.

This Particular Redemption, Unconditional Election, Reprobation. It's like when Jesus told His Church Matt13:11

He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

The Mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven is none other than the Gospel Mysteries. Now Jesus pointedly states that to some it is not given to them to Know, not now nor ever !

Jesus says " but to them[Non Elect] it is not given" which is in the perfect tense in the original, so its a forever settled matter !
