| Publisher Description: This Book Number 12 is part of a series of separately titled books concerning the gospel of salvation and the kingdom of the God based on the CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ and the FOUNDATION teachings of the apostles and prophets. Specifically this Book reveals the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ and His apostles/prophets concerning the translated word "good" in relation to the gospel of salvation. As with many other important biblical words used, particularly in the New Testament, the translated word "good" is of special importance to the understanding of the gospel of salvation. The true meaning of the word of the God or the biblical meaning of the word of the God CANNOT and MUST NOT be based upon any human understanding(such as from human dictionary) and/or human rationalization. BUT ALL WORDS OF THE GOD MUST BE DEFINED AND EXPLAINED OR REVEALED BY THE GOD THROUGH HIS SON BY HIS SPIRIT. Otherwise, the word of the God will not be interpreted correctly and accurately. This means believers must allow the Lord Jesus Christ by His Spirit to reveal the true meaning of His word - which means the word of the God must not be taught according to human opinion. The Lord Jesus Christ is the One who defined who/what is "good" and is also the One who revealed the true meaning of the word "good." Using the true meaning of the translated word "good" and its definition given by the Lord Jesus Christ, all New Testament scriptures containing the translated word "good" are examined to derive its true meaning. Of course in studying the word of the God, the scribe was/is led by the Spirit to reveal the correct and true meaning of every scripture containing the translated word "good." Many important revelation concerning the translated word "good" in relation to the gospel of salvation are arrived at. Some of them are: # Good equals righteous# No one is good except One, the God# Only a good man can do good works; a good man cannot do evil works# All mankind are no good, meaning all mankind are evil# No mankind can do good works # Only the God can do good works# Believers can only do good works when they follow the Lord Jesus Christ or when they are led by the Spirit of Christ# To do good works is to do the works of the God, is to fulfil the law# Salvation or everlasting life can only be given to believers when they have completed good works or when they have fulfilled the law# The gospel of salvation requires evil mankind to be made into good mankind# How do we know if evil mankind have been made into good mankind? From their works. If they have done good works, then they have been made into good mankind# Evil mankind can only be made into good mankind through the Lord JesusChrist or through the gospel |
