He operates this Website: http://jesus-is-savior.com/
Personally, I think its nothing more than some hate cult against anyone who does not agree with his far right fundamentalism.
:cloud9: No....
No.
I haven't either.
But, just looking at the confusion of the home page is enough to cause one to run away.
Righteousness, peace and joy are the fruits of Jesus Christ.
Without Him is the obvious chaos offered by Adam.
I agree in part with much I find on that site. Yet it is spiritually immature preoccupations with the affairs of the world. It is brittle, sectarian and lacking in the largeness of heart, the leniency of Christ. Still, some of these evils exposed at this site ought to be recognized for what they are. We all have to start someplace. We have to pass through the outer court to enter the holy place or beyond.
When the planes flew into the twin towers, it was on the middle of three days during which I was undergoing a special work of God in my life. During 9/10, 9/11, and 9/12 I was taken into a realm higher than our ordinary experience of life. There was simultaneously an increased light that was brightest on 9/11. Thoughout I heard the Spirit repeat these words over and over many times: "We are not of the nations. We are not of the nations. We are not of the nations."
Understood.
When "these" things happen just be still and KNOW THAT I AM GOD.

That's interesting. I can sort of see the logic of that. I also sense that attitude a lot here. As if what happens to people on this earth is of no consequence, or as if we are to be about something bigger.
But is that really how Jesus saw it? Why do you think they killed him? Who here would walk up to our leaders and call them vipers and hypocrites? Who would have the courage, the strength, and the heart to call out evil? Better yet, who could not? Jesus did it and he was about his Father's business. Aren't we supposed to follow him? Maybe eventually we will not be of the nations, but--
"He who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much; and he who is unrighteous in a very little thing is unrighteous also in much.--Luke 16:10
I found his website fairly disturbing. Half the time he seems to be casting stones at anyone who he disagrees with. He is right definitely on abortions, but it seems more politically Right winged geared than in spirit.
It's a great site. That's the place where I first heard about UR :thumbsup:
Ok, he was not very positive about it....
Really if that man would be the judge, I doubt that even Jesus would make it to heaven...

I did experience that, just as I described.
The background of the phrase, "We are not of the nations" is it translates, "We are not of the gentiles."
Part of understanding, "We are not of the nations" is to not look at the events of 9/11 from an "American" point of view, but to see it from the heavenlies. It is not about the USA versus Iraq or Afganistan for us. We are called to be a prophetic shepherding many-membered body in the earth, not racists, not nationalists, not denominationalists, but of God Who is the God of all flesh. That doesn't mean we don't care for out native land. We just can't automatically identify with those claiming authority over its inhabitants or see certain events in the light national "authorities" shine on them.
Consider: When Jesus resurrected from the dead Ceasar's seal on the tomb was broken. It seem, since an angel rolled back the stone that had the seal, then it was broken by an angel. I think Jesus was already gone, having passed through the tomb with His immortal body.
Our citizenship is in heaven.

It never was. It was always about truth versus propaganda and life versus death.

wow. I never saw that. It confirms that we are no longer sealed by Caesar and the government he represents or by the tomb of this body of death. But, rather we are freed to be sealed by God. That's wonderful!
2And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. --Rev 7

Yes, but we are ambassadors to earth.
Amen, Molly.

Believe in Christ with faith alone and be saved. And thus all people will become believers in Jesus with faith alone and go to Heaven.
Philippians 3:9 And be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ
Please note that this is not a personal attack on David J. Stewart, but rather an analysis to show what is correct and what is not correct from his jesus-is-savior site. I love all people regardless of who they are. Please do not spread hate to anyone my friends :)
Romans 10:17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ
First, let?s start with what jesus-is-savior site gets right.
Jesus-is-savior says that, as the name shows, that Jesus is the only way to Heaven. This is true. It?s only through Christ we can be saved from our sins.
Romans 3:26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
Jesus-is-savior also mentions that you must be saved by faith alone to go to Heaven. This is true. There are many articles on Jesus-is-savior which exposes false religions for promoting works salvation and these are good too.
John 6:35 Jesus said to them, ?I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.
Jesus-is-savior correctly says that repentance is recognizing one as a sinner and rebukes repentance turning from sins as false and works salvation. This is very good.
John 8:24 I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins.?
Jesus-is-savior correctly talks about once saved always saved. However, they rename it to ?if saved always saved? which is false. Everyone will eventually be saved, hence the ?once?, by renaming it ?if?
Matt. 5:44-45 Jesus commanded us to be like Himself and His Father: "Love your enemies, bless those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you that you may be sons of your Father in heaven."
Jesus-is-savior also uses the phrase ?Eternal Security? as a synonym for ?Once Saved Always Saved?.
2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering towards us, not willing that any should perish, but that ALL should come to repentance."
However, one major area where Jesus-is-savior is wrong is there false belief in Eternal Conscious Torment Hell. This is false! Everyone will eventually become believers in Christ Jesus and all people will go to Heaven. This is the truth my friends! Hell will be emptied out, no one will be in there.
John 6:44 "No one can come to Christ unless the Father who sent Him draws him."
Jesus-is-savior site also only uses the King James Version (or as they call it the King James Bible, KJB). I?ve also used the King James Version (KJV) for verses. However, I also use many other versions of the Bible and there?s nothing wrong with using other versions too. While it?s fine to have versions that you like more than others, like how I like the Aionian Bible, only the original Greek and Hebrew Scriptures are correct, since anything else can have translation errors when ported over to another language by mere human authors.
With that out of the way, you may remember from my life story I posted on the Tentmaker forum the following:
https://tentmaker.org/forum/testimonies-(testify-here!)/atheism-to-et-to-annihlation-to-ur/msg220615/#msg220615
Then I looked back at Christianity. I was never told how to be saved, so I searched online looking for answers. I came across the extremely fundamentalist site Jesus-is-savior.com by Eternal Torment believer David J. Stewart. I don't go to that site anymore, I do not recommend any fellow Universalist to go there, but it's there where I learned a lot about the Bible and how to be saved.
Acts 3:21 In Jesus Christ is "the restoration of ALL THINGS, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began."
It shows how the Lord can use everyone for the ultimate good. While Jesus-is-savior gets stuff wrong on his website, his faith alone for permanent salvation part is true, even though he still believes in the false ECT hell.
John 12:47 Jesus "did not come to judge the world but to save the world."
So I try to take what the small parts I liked about the site and incorporate into this website. For instance, I still can?t stand looking at white screens for so long since it hurts my eyes, so I adopted the black background with white text from their site. Also, the name ?jesus-saves-all? is based off of the good parts ?jesus-is-savior?. Jesus-is-savior has parts of their site that is wrong, so I made this website as a way to take what is good and put it on display.
Genesis 12:3 All peoples on earth will be blessed through Abraham.
Oh, and of course, there?s so much on the site that I can?t cover anything, so I focused on purely the salvation stuff.
