The whole idea that a person can make it to Heaven based on their own merit/good works will cause a bunch of ego trips for all sorts of different people.
And there it is. THAT is His Truth. that young man, Isaiah Saldivar, like MANY (don't miss that), unfortunately conflate (combine together) Salvation WITH Discipleship as THE means to salvation, when they are missing The Message of The Gospel OF Salvation entirely... The Gospel Message does includes NOT ONE work, and not ONE aspect of discipleship to BE Eternally Saved...The Gospel of Salvation is purely Believing in Jesus' death, burial, and Resurrection...Jesus IS The Resurrection...Believing in He Who sent Him; that's The Father. Believing in Jesus, Who was sent BY Abba (THE Heavenly Father)...which means to Believe in His Holy Spirit, for HE is ONE! Believing in His Gospel of Salvation is to obey The Gospel...and to obey The Gospel, IS to obey Jesus! This is HIS WAY of Salvation, which is The Power of God, BY which we are KEPT...GOD, NOT man...which is why Paul was not ashamed of The Gospel... To assert the mixture of Salvation and Discipleship is the SAME as Grace PLUS works...and we know what Is Written There (Eph. 2:8 and 9, KJV). Salvation IS The Free Gift of God, given FREELY by Him HIMSELF...HIS Grace and HIS Faith....ALL from His MERCY. Those Born of God (Spirit) are new creations, created IN Christ Jesus UNTO...again, UNTO good works, NOT good works UNTO Jesus! Stay away from the leaven of the pharisees, beloved children of God Almighty...because a little leaven, leaveneth the WHOLE lump...how do you MAKE bread rise up?? you WORK in leaven!! NONE can MAKE The Bread of Life Rise...HE DID THAT HIMSELF, PURELY!!!
@@biblestudyforyou I guess I'm confused with what you are saying. There would have been plenty of people who heard Jesus preach and believed he was the messiah before the cross. Were they not saved? Maybe I'm just not understanding what you are saying.
@@biblestudyforyou How can God teach you without the Holy Spirit? Before you're saved, you walk in the flesh and not in the Spirit. "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you." (Jhn 14:26 KJV)
Imagine being at the great white throne judgement and God says to you: "Depart from me, ye didn't work hard enough"...that would destroy the whole purpose of Jesus Christ.
Literally LOL. Thank God there no is works metrics that we are judged by to have eternal life. Nobody would be in heaven and nobody who ever lived in history. By grace through faith we are saved!
“For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us LABOUR therefore to enter into that REST, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.” Hebrews 4:10-11 KJV The reason most won’t enter is because the Gospel is SOO good that many can’t come to believe salvation is not of their own doing, but entirely the Lord’s Let go, trust Him and His work, and rest in the promise 🙏 hope you feeling better brother Norm! Keep up the great work
Brother, I so enjoy your teaching on grace and Jesus. It is water in a desert. It is do refreshing to hear it. For years I attended churches that claimed to preach grace but actually only preached legalism. I struggled and prayed to be accepted and saved by God. I didn’t believe in the simple grace message. I thought I had to keep my salvation by believing the right doctrines and wearing holiness clothing, and not wearing jewelry. It was even harder on the women. I finally just gave up. Now I find your channel and hear the actual Gospel. Thank you, Brother!
@Caleb Urias If Jesus throws me into Hell for putting my trust in Him alone for my salvation, and not pointing to any of my works for justification, then He is going to have to explain to me what He was doing suffering so intensely on the cross for. If works could save anyone, Jesus need not have suffered and died so horribly for sins. The ONLY work necessary for salvation is what Jesus did on the cross. And, when He rose again, He absolutely CONQUERED all the power of death and evil. Jesus paid it ALL.
Romans 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
@@nicholasisaiah53john316 right, that’s transgression of the law, not works of the law. When Paul said works of the law he meant works of the law… the law of Moses, circumsision, sabbaths, food laws, etc. that verse you gave doesn’t apply
@@tanieldillman476 Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Romans 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Galatians 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. Galatians 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. Galatians 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. Galatians 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. Romans 2:12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; Romans 2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. Romans 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Romans 2:15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) Romans 2:16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
Here is what many believe: One must do something to be saved. Cathlicism, Roman Catholicism, Calvinism, Armenianism, Pentecostal, Legalist, Lordshippers, Christian Science, Mormons, JW's, 7th day adventists, and even Judaism and Islam all believe the same thing: Making it about man to be saved
Yep, that is what they all agree with. They may disagree of the type of works, but they all believe in works salvation. They want to be their own saviours.
Ephesians 2:8-9 King James Version 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Notice how he only quotes "scripture" from a corrupted version, then doesn't quote completely, adds his own stuff then on top of that then tell us what the word means. Is this modern "preaching"?
John 10:9 - I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. A one Jesus sized door is pretty narrow. But His arms are open to all, believe in Him!
@@gethsemane-777 I think so. There was a part in his preaching where he paused momentarily and swallowed like he doesn't believe the crap that he is saying
@@richardwilliams9532 what you say is possible but I had watched some of his videos he really seems to know he's misleading the flock and do it for wicked purpose. Of course, only God knows in the end, so let's pray for him he's just temporarily blind but based on other wolves in sheep clothing they never seem to repent.
This dude lays it out for you unlike anyone else I've seen, there's a certain level of confidence and peace that comes with it. This is the true gospel. God is not the author of confusion. The other guy on the other hand is all over the place he doesn't sound convinced. The thief on the cross said you really are the son of God, remember me Lord and he was saved just like moses and the serpents staff. It's so simple people stumble over the very simplicity of it all. Good job bro thank you for a very sobering message.
I'd just like to say thank you for your videos, I really feel the Holy Spirit is working through you. I came to faith in Christ 2 years ago and initially thought i was saved by works and keeping the law, through your videos the Bible makes much more sense to me. All glory to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!!
The statement:" salvation is the free gift that will cost you everything " ,is one of the greatest spiritual oxymorons ever uttered! Complete nonsense!
Took 3 decades for me to realise believing Jesus Christ alone for salvation, i had it completely backwards from listening to Isaiah Salvador, David Pawson, and all falsehood teachings that you can lose your salvation, you can't and won't, salvation wasn't yours to begin with its a gift from God through believing in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, keep speaking that and you will eventually believe what you speak from your mouth. God bless you.
Yesterday I heard the verse of the woman holding the lamp stands with oil going to the wedding. I didn’t understand it at all. God revealed it to me through your video after I even forgot about it. God is so good 🙏praises to the king that sits on the throne🙏 ❤️
@@countthenumberministry8776 no he doesn’t he preaches saved by faith alone. What works of the law of Moses is he teaching is neccecary for salvation? None. Repentance and living a Holy life isn’t a work of the law, it’s a fruit of salvation. Also the king James isn’t perfect, there’s many errors. Deuteronomy 32:8 is a great example. “When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.” Deuteronomy 32:8 KJV Israel wasn’t even a nation yet, it should say “he set the bounds of the people according to the number of The Sons of God” We know that king Jimmy totally guessed on this verse, because he didn’t understand the Sons of God. the Septuagint says Sons of God, Dead Sea scrolls say Sons of God.
@countthenumberministry - most Christians today don’t use the King James translation as it’s written in Old king James English. Many of the modern translations are based off the same or even older manuscripts than the King James version uses and so just as accurate and effective in leading people to Christ.
Amen brother. False works based prophets are certainly the majority. Few will lay down their self righteousness and accept Jesus's righteousness by simple faith and not trust in self. Few there be that find it though it's right in front of all. God bless you and yours and hope your recovering well.
@@biblestudyforyou Your comment " We can't just magically believe that Jesus is sinless." I did! HE can not lie, so when Scripture says He was sinless, I believed it. Everything coming out of Scripture I believe. It's human interpretation I have trouble with and Saldivar's interpretation is a twisted mess.
This is what they do not realize,We are called the Bride of Christ NOW.. A Bride will not be excluded from her own wedding or it is no longer a wedding.
That’s the biggest double talk ever. How do you say in the same sentence that something is free, yet costs everything? “Yeah, my friend gave me his house for free… but it cost me everything to actually have it” like huh?? My friend gave me his car for free… but it cost me $25,000 to actually get it. The break in logic is astounding
Amen. The definition of a gift is that you receive it for free, without any condition attached to it. If you have to do something for it afterwards, then it ceases to be a gift.
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
God loves us so much he gave us his only begotten son. Jesus I’m crying out to you. Please hear my cries. I knew when I found Jesus my life wouldn’t be easy because I would have to give up my sinful life style and follow him. I’m a single mother struggling to make ends meet. Since covid I have been struggling to get back on my feet. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined due to my pre existing health conditions, lupus and heart disease so now I’m having a hard time providing for my children. Both of my sons are autistic and non verbal. I’m overwhelmed. I started homeschooling them due to bullying and other issues they were facing in public school. I’m waitressing and I’m happy to be back working but I’m not making nearly enough to get by. I have nowhere to turn no family nor friends. I have been put down and mocked, over my situation. I’m so ashamed and so embarrassed so please be kind. Prayers are all I want. Every month I struggle trying to provide for my children I’m barely making it. But even through my struggles I keep faith. Praise Jesus! I have faith God will provide. ❤
Hi I'm not much for words but I did pray for you and also wanted to remind you of GODS law of sowing and reaping. GOD can provide for you financially but you can't reap want you haven't sown pray about it and see oh where you should give money too and have faith that that money you gave with come back to you and then some. Also remember by his stripes you were healed. When Jesus died on the cross he not only bore of sins but also our diseases. So speak against your Illness command over yourself you have been healed everyday still you see it physically you have been healed or try and fine a church or someone who can lay hands on you for healing. GOD, JESUS, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT keep their promises if you ever asked to be healed you already received it you just have to believe it into existence so it can manifest from the spiritual world into the physical world. It's already happened to countless people around the world. Just never stop believing for the things that you asked for if it's God will in other words GOD wants you well and provided for to prosper you and not harm you then remember to always believe don't listen to thoughts of doubt rebuke them and fill you mind with scripture that remind you that GOD is faithful we walk by faith and not by sight which means just cause you not healed in 2 seconds or your not set for money for how long does not mean GOD doesn't have things in the works for you to get what you asked for just believe and you will receive and remember you reap what you sew so don't forget to Tithe. I hope this words bring you peace and joy. 💕 and just remember you not alone GODS always with you. Heck you have the HOLY SPIRIT with you 24/7. So never be dishearted just Trust GOD and he'll come through.
He is so zealous, it's so easy to be swept away by it if you haven't been grounded in the scriptures. Not that I am there all the way, but nowadays I just get annoyed and tired hearing this stuff, blah. So tired.
I believe my salvation cost me everything,since I've been saved I have lost literally everything,still I wait for an answer from Jesus yet I get nothing but more loss,I surrender to him and my salvation has cost me my life,I definitely know now what partakers in his sufferings means because I'm living proof that God helps who he chooses not his children that need him the most ,I can't believe we haven't been forsaken by God,just look what he let his own son go through,please forgive me Jesus
The 'striving' is to 'contend, fight, labour and strain' to enter His Rest, which is belief/faith. Hebrews 4. It is THE FIGHT OF FAITH. It is not about works. Thanks for your ministry which refreshing in the Holy Spirit and unreliant on the worldly props that are so prevalent in the church today. Cheers
Absolutely, and that’s how I understand that verse. Strive to find THE way of salvation. I think if you don’t have the holy spirit then you’d read it like you have to do works to get in. It’s shame.
God bless you brother! I must say your channel is a blessing seeing you reading from the KJB! This will probably create controversy but I firmly believe, among many other dangers, the modern bibles push works based salvation.
I find it intriguing that Isaiah Salvadars jumper which may or may not be his merch has a lighting symbol centrally... satan fell like a bolt of lightning and since then the symbol has been popular in occult and satanic circles.
Twisting the scriptures unto your own destruction, by failing to rightly divide the word of truth. STUDY to show thyself approved unto God. The gospel for this dispensation of grace is 1 Cor 15: 1-4. Trust in the shed blood. Romans 3:23-25 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God. Salvation is indeed a free gift of God!
Wow, this is so sad because this guy is so lost. I pray that God opens his eyes soon to realize we are..."Saved by Grace through Faith in the Finished work of Christ Jesus..ALONE". It is NOT by our deeds, efforts, merits etc. ✝️💞
I had to look up the verse on my own to find where it says “work hard to find the narrow gate” and it doesn’t. What is this? They wanna work so hard for their salvation even though salvation is clearly obtained without works… I don’t understand 😭
He would easily advocate for the father in the prodigal son to tell his son who walked away and returned to work with his hired servants, since he has to make up for the inheritance he squandered.
It’s all about self denial, death to self, death to the flesh. Repenting from sin isn’t a work of the law, if you have been truly born of God, you will not sin, you can’t , Hids seed abides in you.
The text Isaiah refers to is Luke 13:26 about people and Christ: Luke 13:26 then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’ It does talk about salvation. But the narrow gate in the context and especially Luke 13:26 show us that it talks about Jews. It speaks also in a similar way as the wise and foolish virgins in Matthew 25. In both Gospels Christ talks about a door closing. In the deepest sense it talks about Jews in Luke 11:22-30 and Matthew 25:1-11.
Imagine you get a new car for your birthday as a gift, but then your parents or friend demand you pay up $40,000 dollars. Is that really a gift? Or are you buying that car? Salvation is no different: either you earn your way to Heaven by good works or you accept it as a gift. It cannot be one or the other. Salvation cannot be free and cost everything, therefore, it cannot be of grace and work. For if it's by grace and works, then it is of works by default. If it's by grace, then it is through faith.
My understanding is that we should be having the fruits of our salvation showing (therefore our works show our salvation). John 14:15 "if you love me you will keep my commandments" - what's the no.1 commandment? love the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul, 2nd commandment treat others as you treat yourselves. Yes HOW WE ACT as Christians matters. We cannot go on sinning and believe that we have made Christ our lord and savior (following first commandment). We can make mistakes but we need to repent and turn 180 praying to the Holy Spirit for the power to do so. I am unfollowing this channel as we need to be united as the body of Christ through the Holy Spirit - I totally under what Isaiah is preaching. We need to pick up our cross daily and follow Christ.
You make great points. John 14:15 is a great Bible verse that describe how Christians try hard to live for the Lord, serve the Lord, obey God, etc. Revelation 21:8 explains how people who are slaves to sin won't inherit the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 7:16 talks about how by their fruits ye shall know them. Romans 6:1 talks about how Christians shouldn't sin so that grace can abound. I believe these verses aren't trying to suggest how people can lose their salvation, salvation is maintained by good works, etc. I think the point of these verses is the changes that happen in someone's life when they become a Christian, how God changes someone when they become saved, how when people become saved, they aren't slaves to sin anymore, etc. Matthew 7:21-23 talks about how many people who say Lord Lord will have on God on judgment say "Depart from me I never knew you". These Bible verses aren't trying to suggest that people can lose their salvation. The point of Matthew 7:21-23 is that not everyone that claims to be a Christian is a Christian. There's a lot of people in this world that claim to be Christians that aren't Christians. God is not fooled by people who claim to be Christians that aren't Christians. God know who's saved and who isn't saved. There's a lot of people in this world that claim to be Christians due to believing in God, going to church every Sunday, believing the Bible is true, being a fan of the Christian religion, etc when none of those things make someone a Christian. A Christian is someone that has accepted Christ in their heart and meant it in their heart. I strongly believe people can't lose their salvation. There's a lot of Biblical evidence that proves people can't lose their salvation. 1 John 5:13 talks about how you can know for certain that you have eternal life. If you can know for certain you have eternal life, that's strong evidence how you can't lose your salvation. 1 John 2:19 says how there's no such thing as an ex-Christian. If there's no such thing as an ex-Christian, it implies how people can't lose their salvation. I believe that people can't lose their salvation, but at the same time, I don't believe that accepting Christ in your heart means you're free to live your life any way you want to and still go to heaven. In order to be saved, you have to accept Christ in your heart and mean it in your heart. Accepting Christ in your heart and meaning it in your heart means you want to repent and turn away from being slaves to sin and you want Jesus in your heart to help you to live for him. When someone accepts Christ in their heart and means it in their heart, God changes them, and they experience all kinds of changes in their life due to God changing them such as not being a slave to sin anymore (they still sin and still have sin weaknesses but they aren't slaves to sin anymore), never being in bondage to sin anymore, being born again, being a new creation, wanting to live for the Lord, wanting to serve the Lord, having the fruit of the spirit in their life, experiencing sanctification in regards to how they live their life, having the fruit of the spirit in their life, and not wanting to take advantage of grace and forgiveness in regards to how they live their life. When someone accepts Christ in their heart and means it in their heart, God changes them, they aren't slaves to sin anymore, they're always going to be saved, and they won't become an ex-Christian.
I hope that Isaiah returns to his first love. He has clearly been led astray from the truth as I once was. If God brought me back to the pasture, he can bring him back too. The problem is that he has a following that all reinforce his doctrine of works based salvation. The blind leading the blind. Jesus says don’t worry, let not your heart be troubled. For a child of God, literally the most worrisome thing imaginable is being separated from your Father who loves you forever. The scripture “if anyone thinks himself to be wise, let him become a fool so that he may become wise” applies to him and others like him. Still he reminds me of Apollos, perhaps one day he can be used mightily by God if Aquila and Priscilla more clearly explain the grace of God to him. ❤ grace and peace to you brothers/sisters! Our Father has SPOKEN! NEVER will he leave nor forsake us 😊 remain steadfast in the confidence we had from the beginning! Don’t let anyone rob you of your prize!
The Gospel is the narrow way in the same sense that The World cannot understand the way in which Jesus Gives My peace I leave with you, not as the world gives do I give unto you I find the self righteous love the parable of the prodigal Son but fail to preach on the second son.... The son who cannot understand the Grace of the Father
I’m sure many of us here have been striving to find that only faith alone in Christ alone through his grace alone saves! Tell that to the lost and they’ll scoff at you. Very narrow!
isaiah 64:6 but we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Some Bible quotes and The Gospel - How to Get Saved KJV Romans 5:12 - Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Romans 3:10,23-24 3:10- As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one 3:23-24 - For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Hebrews 10:10 By the which we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all # Once Saved Always Saved Ephesians 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. John 10:27-28 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
I seen a video where Isaiah here was teaching that a believer could be demon possessed, so It doesn't surprise me that he teaches this way concerning salvation, he's all out of wack on his theology, and no authority on God's word, Mark and avoid. Thank You Ono, God bless you and your ministry in Jesus name amen.
People also think once your saved you are guaranteed entrance to the gates of heaven you still need to follow the Lord's commandments and turn away from sin
Ahhh you are guaranteed entrance. That’s what being saved is. It’s through the finished work of Jesus Christ. There is no grey area here. This is Gods promise through Jesus and sealed by the Holy Sprit.
@@timjohnson73that’s NOT talking about loss of salvation. It’s widely misinterpreted that way though. Do a more thorough study on it and it will make sense.
Amen brother, great explaination...it's hard to listen to these false teachers....turns my stomach. The saddest thing about Isaiah is...he has 4 daughters!! I sure hope he repents...
"Salvation is free but it costs everything" smh did he say that with a straight face and proceed to upload that without wondering if it makes sense at all. Deception is truly dangerous.
