It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline? But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits, and live? For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness. For the moment, all discipline seems not to be pleasant, but painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness. (vv. 7-11)

I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to apply to your eyes so that you may see. Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. (Revelation 3:18-19)

Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (James 1:2-4)

There are many Christians who enjoy their church life on the earth. They do not know that the Protestant church has an incurable disease. And she will die of it. The writer of the Book of Hebrews tells us that those who reject Christ will not escape wrath of God. Those who do not know Christ, do not understand the works of Christ. Their faith is false.

Calvin and Luther were God’s instruments, but their knowledge was not perfect. But the knowledge of God must become clearer over time. Therefore, they are not perfect without us living this third reformation.

And all these, having gained approval through their faith, did not receive what was promised, because God had provided something better for us, so that apart from us they would not be made perfect. (Hebrews 11:39-40)

I feel sorry for those who live a comfortable church life because it is obvious that God does not discipline them. The saints are wailing and mourning over the church’s harlotry. Even though God sent the white horse, many churches rejected His call for repentance. Many want to believe that anyone who calls on the name of the Lord are saved regardless of their understanding of God. With the Holy Spirit, it is impossible for the saints to have different ideas about God. I repeatedly mentioned that the Trinity is the foundational doctrine of the church. With the right understanding of the Trinity, we have the right understanding of Christ’s two natures. Once these core doctrines are understood, it is impossible to accept salvation by works. All saints believe 100% grace. Anyone who speak against Sola Gratia are not true Christians.

The saints go through lifelong training. Our journey to know and understand God can be long. We sometimes go wrong ways. God disciplines us so that we go the right way. God is always with us and will never forsake us because we are no longer slaves but are His children. Our righteousness is not tied to the law but to Christ who died for us and made us children of God. Because Christ was resurrected and lives forever, we live forever.

Those who love the law (and yet do not keep the law) accuse the saints of being antinomians. The Roman Catholic church accused the Reformers likewise. True keeping of the law is having faith in God. And this is a gift of God to all His adopted children through the Son.

The prophets and the apostles tell us that there will be intense heat or fire on the Day of the Lord.

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. (2 Peter 3:10)

Raise your eyes to the sky, Then look to the earth beneath; For the sky will vanish like smoke, And the earth will wear out like a garment And its inhabitants will die in the same way. But My salvation will be forever, And My righteousness will not fail. (Isaiah 51:6)

Only those who are united with Christ are saved. Every saint understands the meaning of the cross of Christ and why it made us righteous. Unless we become the children of God, there is no righteousness. Even though a person is as upright as Adam and Job, uprightness that comes from the law and works can never become the righteousness of God. Therefore, it is wrong to say that Christ had to keep the law to become righteous or impute righteousness to the saints. Many Christians refuse 100 % grace. They attack the city of God. But their efforts are useless.

Now this will be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the peoples who have gone to war against Jerusalem; their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongue will rot in their mouth. (Zechariah 14:12)
