IT'S NO MYSTERY WHY SOME CAN'T SEE THE MYSTERY: PAUL TELLS US EXACTLY WHY!1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV): “For the preaching of the cross is to THEM THAT PERISH foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV): “But THE NATURAL MAN [ i.e. the unsaved person ] receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 2 Corinthians 4:3 (KJV): “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to THEM THAT ARE LOST: 4 In whom the god of this world [ i.e. Satan ] hath blinded the minds of them which believe not,” Ephesians 2:2-3 (KJV): “Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air [ i.e. Satan ], the spirit that now worketh in THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE [ i.e. the unsaved people ]: 3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature THE CHILDREN OF WRATH [ i.e. the unsaved people ], even as others.” Ephesians 5:6 (KJV): “Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE [ i.e. the unsaved people ].” Colossians 3:6 (KJV): “For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE [ i.e. the unsaved people ]:” ________________________________________Dear friends IN Christ,Don't be so quick to assume a person is saved just because they say they are saved and/or 'seem' to understand the gospel of their salvation and/or because they are very enthusiastic about Jesus.A good question to ask them is: "Do you pray to God for forgiveness?"If they say, "Yes," then, most likely they ARE NOT SAVED. Because if they ever really understood the gospel of their salvation, as PAUL preached it, then they would have also understood that Christ PAID FOR ALL THEIR SINS, and that they were FORGIVEN ALL THEIR SINS (past, present, future) the moment they first believed the gospel, i.e. 1Corinthians 15:1-4; Eph 2:8-9. Another good question to ask them is: "Do you believe you must endure to the end in order to be saved?" If they say, "Yes," then, most likely they ARE NOT SAVED. Because if they ever really understood the gospel of their salvation, as PAUL preached it, then they would have also understood that they were SEALED by that Holy Spirit of promise until the rapture (Eph 1:13; Eph 4:30 KJV) the instant they BELIEVED the gospel, i.e. 1Corthinians 15:1-4; Eph 2:8-9 KJV.Yes, it is possible that a person could be saved and simply deny the truth that Paul's message is distinct and separate from Jesus' earthly ministry, but almost always in those cases its because the person is a PASTOR who relie$ on TITHE$ for his living!If the person you are trying to minister to is NOT a pastor of a Church, there's usually no motive for them to lie about NOT seeing the MYSTERY from the scriptures.So, if they're NOT a pastor of a Church and they claim they CAN'T SEE from the KJV scriptures that Paul's message is new and different (Eph 3:1-10), then the reason they CAN'T see it is probably because they simply AREN'T SAVED; not always, but usually that's the reason. So, pay close attention to these things!You might have to share Paul's gospel of salvation with the same person many times before they really believe it. Please, always try to show them Paul's salvation scriptures from an open KJV Bible, if you can, and let them read them to you aloud:Ro 3:23; Ro 3:12; Ro 5:12; Ro 5:8; Ga 1:4; 2Co 5:21; Ro 6:23; 1Co 15:22; Eph 3:6; Ro 1:16; Ro 2:16; Ro 16:25; 1Ti 1:15-16; 1Cor 15:1-4; Eph 1:13; Eph 2:8-9 (Col 4:12 proves prayer is a work); Ro 11:6; Ro 4:4-5,14; Tit 3:5; Gal 2:16; 1Co 1:21; Ro 8:1-2; Ga 3:26; 2Ti 1:1b; 2Ti 2:10; 2Ti 3:15; Col 2:10-14; Eph 1:7; Col 1:14; 1Co 1:17; 1Co 12:13; 2Co 5:16; Ro 3:19-26; Ro 6:14; Ga 2:19-21; Ro 10:4; Ro 5:17-21; Ga 3:21-25; Ro 7:7; Ro 8:10-11; Tit 3:7; Ro 6:22; 2Ti 1:10; Ro 5:1,9; 1Co 6:11; Ga 3:11,22; Ro 15:13; Eph 4:30; Ro 8:23; Ro 6:6; Php 3:20-21; 1Co 15:52; 1Th 4:16-17 KJV. But, if time is limited, have them read:Ro 3:23; Ro 5:8; Ro 6:23; 1Co 15:22; Ro 1:16; Ro 2:16; 1Co 15:1-4; Eph 1:13; Eph 2:8-9; Ro 4:4,5,14; Tit 3:5; Ga 2:16; Ro 8:1-2; Ro 10:4; Tit 3:7; 2Ti 1:10; Ga 3:11,22; Eph 4:30 KJV.And, if time is very limited, have them read:Ro 3:23; Ro 6:23; 1Co 15:22; Eph 3:6; Ro 2:16; Ro 1:16; 1Co 15:1-4; Eph 1:13; Eph 2:8-9; Ro 8:2; Ro 4:4,5,14; Tit 3:7; Ga 3:11 KJV. And, if time is very, very limited, have them read:Ro 3:23; Ro 6:23; Ro 5:8; Ro 1:16; 1Co 15:1-4; Eph 1:13; Eph 2:8-9 KJV. And, if time is very, very, very limited, at the very least have them read:Ro 1:16; 1Co 15:1-4; Eph 2:8-9 KJV. Just remember: You CAN'T skip the step of getting them saved, and then expect them to receive the knowledge of the truth about Paul being our only apostle. 1Co 2:14; 1Ti 2:4 KJV. ________________________________________NOTE:You might consider writing the first group of scriptures, shown above, in the front or back of your Bible. That way you'll always have them there to guide a person to salvation IN Christ. And, if they don't have time to read them with you, have them TAKE A PICTURE of those scriptures with their phone!!! Make sure you print them neatly and clearly.LeighAnn Mycko?
