How can we be really free, to be part of the New Jerusalem? There is only one way -- Christ our Savior. We can be free indeed (from sin), if we continue in Christ's words (Logos), which is essentially the Messianic Kabbalah Wisdom. Most Christians today are satisfied with the Written Bible (the Old and New Testament), and they stopped there. And most of the mainstream Christians deceived themselves by thinking that John 3:16 is enough for them. Therefore, they do not continue to the higher levels of Christ's Knowledge and revelations. They disobeyed the command in 2Peter 3:18. This is a major mistake and failure of Billions of Christians!

Most of the mainstream Christians deceived themselves by thinking that John 3:16 is enough for them. Therefore, they do not continue to the higher levels of Christ's Knowledge and revelations. In so doing, they disobeyed the command in 2Peter 3:18. Let's look at the main Bible verse (John 3:16) that many unlearned Pastors and their Churches twist to deceive themselves and their followers.
- For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (Joh 3:16 KJV)
- Therefore, beloved, knowing beforehand, beware lest being led away with the error of the lawless, you fall from your own steadfastness. (2Pe 3:17 MKJV)
- And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. (Mat 24:4 KJV)
- Therefore, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall! (1Cor 10:12)
GROW IN GRACE AND IN KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen. (2Pe 3:18 MKJV)
First, each one of us must know that there are 2 levels of Knowledge, to say the least:
- The General Knowledge.
- The Specific or Detailed Knowledge.
Thus, without the Specific Knowledge, many Christians are deceived to think that if they believed in Christ, they are already:
- True Christians (Christ's disciples)
- Assured of Salvation
- Know the Truth
- Set Free
But, Christ said that to acquire the above list of spiritual benefits is CONDITIONAL (the specific knowledge level). The condition is: "IF YOU CONTINUE IN MY WORD" (John 8:31).
- Then Jesus said to the Jews who believed on Him, IF YOU CONTINUE IN MY WORD, you are My disciples indeed. (John 8:31 MKJV)
- And YOU SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH, and THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE. (John 8:32 MKJV)
The main problem of most Christians today is that they stopped somewhere, and do not continue in Christ's words. They built their own "Comfort Zone" with the help of the "Convenient, Easy," and "Prosperity" Preachers of the False Gospel!
And they confidently assume that they are already OK with Christ, Rapture, and their Salvation. This is where they are deceived, all of them: their Churches, Pastors, and Lay membership.
BUT, SALVATION AND ENTRY TO GOD'S KINGDOM IS NOT THAT EASY! YOU NEED TO STRIVE AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE AVAILABLE TIME, OPPORTUNITY, AND REVELATIONS!
STRIVE TO ENTER IN AT THE NARROW GATE. For I say to you, MANY will seek to enter in and shall not be able. (Luke 13:24 MKJV)
Strive - Literally, “agonize.” The word is taken from the Grecian games. In their races, and wrestlings, and various athletic exercises, they “strove or agonized,” or put forth all their powers to gain the victory. Thousands witnessed them. They were long trained for the conflict, and the honor of victory was one of the highest honors among the people. So Jesus says that we should strive to enter in; and he means by it that we should be diligent, be active, be earnest; that we should make it our first and chief business to overcome our sinful propensities, and to endeavor to enter into heaven.
Will seek to enter in - Many in various ways manifest some desire to be saved. They seek it, but do not agonize for it, and hence, they are shut out. But a more probable meaning of this passage is that which refers this “seeking” to a time that shall be “too late;” to the time when the master has risen up, etc. In this life they neglect religion, and are engaged about other things. At death, or at the judgment, they will seek to enter in; but it will be too late - the door will be shut; and because they did not make religion the chief business of their life, they cannot “then” enter in.
Shall not be able - This is not designed to affirm anything respecting the inability of the sinner, provided he seeks salvation in a proper time and manner. It means that at the time when many will seek - when the door is shut - they will not be able then to enter in, agreeable to Mat_7:22. In the proper time, when the day of grace was lengthened out, they “might” have entered in; but there “will be” a time when it will be too late. The day of mercy will be ended, and death will come, and the doors of heaven barred against them. How important, then, to strive to enter in while we have opportunity, and before it shall be too late! -- BARNES
With their low level of Bible Knowledge and Spirituality, they automatically belong to the Jerusalem here below, and they became the children of Hagar -- the Mother of Slavery!
- They answered Him, We are Abraham's seed and were never in bondage to anyone. How do you say, You will be made free? (John 8:33 MKJV)
- Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Whoever practices sin is the slave of sin. (Joh 8:34 MKJV)
- And the slave does not abide in the house forever... (John 8:35 MKJV)
Continued on: YOU MUST RISE From The Old Covenant of The Churches (Hagar) To The New Covenant of The Faithful BRIDE OF CHRIST => The New Jerusalem Above (Sarah). This is Achieved Via The Supernal Power of God's Messianic Kabbalah Wisdom.
