Classic Christianity – Fix Your Eyes Upon Jesus – Part 2 – 11-04-25

Fix Your Eyes Upon Jesus – Part 2 – 11-04-25

~ When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit. John 19:30

God wants us to know that forgiveness is finished. There are no more sacrifices for sins. God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 We who are in Christ stand in His forgiveness, and His righteousness, NOT of our own doing but because of everything He did, and His Spirit lives in us. Those without the Spirit of God are not born again of God. People that refuse to accept his forgiveness at the cross are making a mockery of the cross and counting it as an unholy thing. They say they believe, but by their fruit, they display unbelief in the the Truth of the word of God. This is a very sober warning that ALL should heed. Yet most give lip service to it, and don’t believe “It is Finished.”

So tell people the Truth. Tell them their sins have been forgiven at the cross. This is the Gospel that saves. This is the TRUTH of the New Covenant today. God is NOT counting anyone’s sins against them. So repent (change your mind), and thank Him for the forgiveness He did for you at the cross. That is TRUE Faith.

…..

And a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, having done what, will I inherit eternal life?”
And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good, except God alone. Luke 18:18,19

~ “Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.” 1 John 5:12

~ Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; the one believing in Me, even if he should die, he will live. And everyone living and believing in Me shall never die, to the age. Do you believe this?” John 11:25,26

Pray to God:

Do you really want to know the WHOLE Truth of what is going on today?

Lord Jesus, teach me the truth of the world today and give me the wisdom to know the truth and identify the lies of the devil. Thank you God.”

~ “What can cause you to go to hell? Stupidity, religion, not studying what the Scripture says, Just listening to what your pastor says, and not checking him out. You deliberately keep on sinning after you receive the knowledge of truth there is no sacrifice for sins left. I’m sorry. I’m not going to make any more sacrifices. All you can look forward to is going to hell. Anyone who rejected the law Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely Do you think a man deserves it? Doesn’t say he will, but deserves to be punished. Who’s done what? Trampled the Son of God under foot, treated as an unholy thing, the blood of the covenant. What’s the blood of the covenant? The covenant we just read, because of my death, their sins and lawless acts, I’ll remember no more. And with these have been forgiven, there’s no longer any sacrifice for. Sins. It’s over. It’s done. Finish, rejoice. It’s done. Treating as an unholy thing that blood of the covenant that sanctified him and who has insulted the Spirit of grace. What caused Jesus to do this? Grace, love, mercy, kindness, you can’t, but I will, and we insult the spirit of grace by saying, No, I don’t mind you doing some of this, Jesus, but don’t cut me out. I want to have a little part of this. I want to show people how holy I am by how I keep my sins confessed. He says, you may think that I tolerate this, but I don’t. I don’t like it. You’re insulting my Son. You’re treating as an unholy thing, the blood of this covenant that sanctified you. You’re insulting the Spirit of grace. You think of a bigger sin than these folks? Just think about what you are so concerned about, and think how that matches up with insulting the Spirit of grace that God gave to you. How’s whatever sin you committed this week tie up with treating as an unholy thing, the blood of the covenant that’s set you apart?” ~ Bob George

Bob George 0:28
Heard a man on the radio today about threw up, about tithing. Had a pastor friend of his and he wouldn’t marry somebody unless they tithe. He said, Why, would you marry a robber? That’s his reason, robbing God, I think you morons. Do you know anything about the new covenant? Do you know anything about the fact that where there’s a change of the priesthood, there must also be a change of the law, and that you’re no longer under old Malachi? He’s Old Testament. You don’t tithe. Nothing wrong with tithing. That’s the way you supported the priesthood. But we don’t have Malachi as our priest. Who is our priest? Jesus, and to Him, it’s free will giving. Look in Corinthians, two chapters devoted to giving, joyfully, giving, hilariously, giving without compulsion, giving in accordance to what you do have, not what you don’t have, and to excel in what? The grace of giving, not the law of giving. The grace of giving. Now, some people sit and just whoopee that Bob, praise God, I don’t have to give anything anymore. That’s true. You don’t. But how appreciative Are you think you’re going to be if you’re not going to give to people who are telling you what the truth is? If you’re unwilling to give to people who are telling you truth, who are you willing to give to, and what are you willing to give to? Do you want to give to perpetuate this gospel or just let it die? And so if you’re sitting on your wallet, that too is not of God, tithing isn’t of God, and sitting on your wallet isn’t of God. What is of God? To give, joyfully, to give, hilariously, to give without compulsion and to excel in the grace of giving. Well, that’s a little sideline. Just had to comment on that. I wish I’d have been to service. I’d stood up and commented, no, I wouldn’t.

Now, guys, getting back to what he’s talking about here, he’s saying to us that if I came to do something and it cost me my life to pull this off, and you’re playing games with this, I am not happy with you. If you’re playing games with what I came to accomplish my life I laid down so that you could be a forgiven person, and you’re still playing games with that. And you think I’m happy with you. You got another thing coming. Now listen to what he says, If you deliberately keep on sinning after you receive the knowledge of truth. Again, guys, people say to me, sometimes, is scripture memory good? Not necessarily. It depends on whether you memorize scripture in context or not. If you memorize scripture in context, it’s wonderful. If you memorize it out of context, it’ll destroy you. So when you’re memorizing Scripture, you better memorize if you can, the whole chapter, because then you’ll have it somewhat in context. So here’s the context, if we deliberately keep on sinning after we receive the knowledge of truth. What is the knowledge of truth He’s talking about? Your sins and lawless acts. I’ll remember no more. I don’t remember them. And where these have been forgiven, there’s no longer any sacrifice. Not only have I taken away, there’s no more sacrifice for sins. I have dealt with sin one time through my Son, and I’m not dealing with it anymore. Are we together? Only one sin I’m dealing with, and it’s the sin of the rejection of the Son of God who pulled this off for you and me. Now, if you’re not going to go along with that, if you’re going to say, Well, yeah, but I like my games. I like to go to the priest, makes me feel good. I like to conf, I like to keep short accounts with God. It makes me feel good. You know what God says you’re going to feel good as you’re on your way to hell. I’m telling you guys, this is one stringent warning. It’s saying do not deny what God said is finished. When God says something is finished, He means it is finished. And I don’t want your stupid religion connected with it. It’s done, it’s over. I want you to walk by faith in that truth. Because if you don’t, here’s what God says. You all you have to look forward to is a fearful expectation of the judgment and the raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. What does that mean? Hell.

What can cause you to go to hell? Stupidity, religion, not studying what the Scripture says, Just listening to what your pastor says, and not checking him out. You deliberately keep on sinning after you receive the knowledge of truth there is no sacrifice for sins left. I’m sorry. I’m not going to make any more sacrifices. All you can look forward to is going to hell. Anyone who rejected the law Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely Do you think a man deserves it? Doesn’t say he will, but deserves to be punished. Who’s done what? Trampled the Son of God under foot, treated as an unholy thing, the blood of the covenant. What’s the blood of the covenant? The covenant we just read, because of my death, their sins and lawless acts, I’ll remember no more. And with these have been forgiven, there’s no longer any sacrifice for. Sins. It’s over. It’s done. Finish, rejoice. It’s done. Treating as an unholy thing that blood of the covenant that sanctified him and who has insulted the Spirit of grace. What caused Jesus to do this? Grace, love, mercy, kindness, you can’t, but I will, and we insult the spirit of grace by saying, No, I don’t mind you doing some of this, Jesus, but don’t cut me out. I want to have a little part of this. I want to show people how holy I am by how I keep my sins confessed. He says, you may think that I tolerate this, but I don’t. I don’t like it. You’re insulting my Son. You’re treating as an unholy thing, the blood of this covenant that sanctified you. You’re insulting the Spirit of grace. You think of a bigger sin than these folks? Just think about what you are so concerned about, and think how that matches up with insulting the Spirit of grace that God gave to you. How’s whatever sin you committed this week tie up with treating as an unholy thing, the blood of the covenant that’s set you apart?

Friends, Jesus did it all, and there’s only one thing he wants us to do, walk by faith in it, and quit trying to add to it, and quit trying to add your little deals to it in order to make you, in your own mind, look better and feel better. I cannot get over this feeling. It makes me feel good to know that I’ve got all my sins confessed. Yeah, it makes you feel good. What if you forgot one? Now, how good do you feel? What if, through your life, you’ve forgotten a bunch of them? Oh, well, Grace will cover that. Okay. Now, folks, that’s the warning. It’s a big one, isn’t it isn’t something God treating lightly, lightly. He’s saying, This is what truth is. And if you deliberately keep on sinning after you’ve received the knowledge of truth, there’s no more sacrifice you can depend upon. The only thing you can look forward to if you’re not going to depend upon that sacrifice, is hell, because all these other sacrifices won’t hack it. Are we together?

Now we go over to chapter 12. Therefore. Again chapter 11, a whole list of people who it was credited them as righteousness, who walk by faith. And then now in chapter 12, therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin again, what is the sin? He doesn’t say, the sins that so easily entangle us, but the sin that easily entangles us. What’s the sin that easily entangles us? Not trusting Jesus. What do you think is going on when we’re trying to add to what he said is finished? What do you think that is, except what it says? It’s a sin that entangles you. Why is it entangle you? Because it’s saying this is what you need to do to keep yourself forgiven, when Jesus said it’s over. What are we doing when Jesus said it’s finished, and we say it isn’t? Calling God a liar, treating as an unholy thing, the blood of the covenant that sanctified us, calling him a liar. You said it’s finished, Lord, but you just don’t realize how good it makes me feel to keep short accounts with God.

Folks, the more that I understand these truths, the deeper it gets to me. I don’t think I could have preached this sermon five years ago, Today I’m just beginning, because I am convinced that what it says, that when Christ Jesus, that you have resisted to the point of shedding your blood. When it’s talking about us, it’s saying, if you don’t understand this, how are you going to understand what I’m getting ready to tell you? And so he says, throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance, the race marked out for us. What is perseverance? Hanging in there? Hanging in there. You know, you have people that say, Well, gee, I did it again. Well, it’s real simple, you know, confess first John one nine it and then you’ll be okay. Okay, I do that. Then next day, I did it again. Is that perseverance? No, just keeping up that just yourself, just thinking that you’re keeping up with everything. He says, I’ve done it. Keep that in your mind. It is over. You know whether you’re in Christ or whether you’re not, you know whether you’re playing church or whether you’re not. But have you come to faith, which is what this book is about? Have you come by faith in the totality of the forgiveness of sins? That’s what your faith is in, not that he forgave your sins. You could have faith in that in a bull and goat, but that he took away your sins from the eyes of God, never to see them again. That’s what you put your faith in. Have you put your faith in the fact that your Jesus, that you say you believe in, has taken away my sins forever, all of them, out of the way, from the eyes of God, never to see them again. Is that what your faith is in? or is your faith is in well, he forgave all my sins, up till the day that I was saved? He cleared the deck. But the rest of them were up to me. Believe that you’re not saved. That isn’t Jesus. There’s no Jesus in the Bible that died for your sins up till the day you were saved, and from now on, it’s up to you. So you got your faith in another Jesus.

Bob George 14:47
I believe he took away my sins, but I go to the priest to get my sins forgiven. I’m sorry, I’m sorry that Jesus doesn’t exist. He’s not in the Bible. You’ve got your own Jesus. You’ve made up. He’s not there. The Jesus of the Bible is the one who hung on a cross and suffered and died in order to take away your sins from the eyes of God, never, ever, ever, ever, ever to see them again. That is the Jesus you put your faith in, and not only in Him, you put your faith in what he accomplished. He didn’t accomplish partial forgiveness. He accomplished total forgiveness. Do you believe that? Bob, you teach people that people are going to take advantage of that people do. That’s just a license to sinning. In Texas, he’s sinning that’s a license to sinnnn. Oh, really is that a license to sin, to realize that this Jesus loved me so much that he would take away my sins from the eyes of God never see him again in order to come and live inside of me and to restore me to a newness of life that makes me want to go sinnnn. Where’s your head? Man, I’ll tell you what makes you want to go sinnnn is you can go sin, but all you gotta do is just First John, one nine, it then I can go sin again, or I can go sin, but all I gotta do is go my confession booth and I get forgiven and I go sin again. It’s a good deal, because if I can keep all my sins confessed. And then in case I’ve missed some just at night, just say, Lord, in case I missed one, please forgive me. And then hope you don’t have a bad dream, you could at least stay forgiven for a few hours at night. Do you see how ridiculous, folks this is? You see how ridiculous this religious form that we’ve adapted is in comparison to what Jesus came to do, to take away the sins of the entire world.

So he says, fix your eyes on Jesus. The sin that so easily entangles us is taking your eyes off him. Run with perseverance. He never will leave me nor forsake me. Fix your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. He’s the author of it, and he’s the perfecter of it, who for the joy set before Him, endured the cross for the joy set before him. Folks, it’s like having a baby for you, ladies, not us. There’s there’s torture connected with there’s pain connected with it, but for the joy that is set forth before you. You endure that, because of the joy that you’re going to have of having that little one in your arms someday. I always said if we guys had to have babies, you’d only have one. That’d be it. You gals are something else.

Consider him Jesus, who endured such opposition from sinful men. What were they in opposition? What’s the opposition that he endured? The opposition of truth? The very thing he’s talking about, he came and said, no more sacrifice for sins. They said, huh, if there’s no more sacrifice for sins, there’s no need for me. What need is there going to be for me to be a priest? If there’s no more sacrifice for sins, I don’t have anything to do. They were in total opposition to everything he said. Why? Because everything he said was in opposition to their religion, to their religious form. He endured opposition from these sinful men. He said, consider him who endured that opposition so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. Don’t lose heart when you come up with opposition to these truths, folks. We’ve been fighting people for 20 some years. I say, fighting people, the seeing the opposition, losing friends, kicked off of more radio stations than we’re on. Why? For teaching this truth? That’s why we’re kicked off teaching this truth. Nothing more, nothing less, teaching that Jesus meant what he said when he said it’s finished, that’s enough to boot him off of here. Boot him off off of Christian stations. I got fired from one of our largest Christian stations for saying that Muslim wasn’t a Christian. I want to tell you something, folks, the Christian world is in very sad shape right now. There is very little truth being taught out there that can be proven out of the Scripture. So consider him who endured such opposition from sinful man, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart in your struggle against sin. What’s the sin he’s talking about? Sin of unbelief, just forgetting to trust Jesus.

Do you realize, guys, that every sin that you and I commit, that the root of it is we just not trust in Jesus? Say, Well, I just went out and got hammered last week. How come? Well, because I wasn’t trusting Jesus. Jesus said, I’ll give you peace, and you were looking for Jack Daniels to do it. Every sin that we commit is that not trust in Christ, looking for somebody, sexual encounter, boos, drugs, to do something for me that only Christ can do. You see people like Anna Nicole, Marilyn Monroe, Jane Mansfield, I could go on and on, of people who have gained the world and lost their soul. That’s why Jesus said, what profits a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul? What profits you? And yet we get enticed by thinking, Oh, this will do it. This will make me happy. This will bring meaning and purpose to life. I was never loved by my Father, so I’ll go find some bunch of guys to love, and Jesus says I’ll love you. Yeah, but I can’t see you. I know that’s what faith is, the substance of things hoped for but not seen. But believe me, I’m here.

In your struggle to you’ve not resisted to the point of shedding your blood, or have you forgotten the word of encouragement that addresses you as sons?

Now once again, guys in Luke, turn back with me just a minute to Luke 22, Luke 22 beginning in verse 39. Jesus had just finished the last supper with His disciples, Judas had left to betray him, and now in verse 39 it says, Jesus went out, as usual, to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed Him, and on reaching the place the Mount of Olives, He said to them, pray so that you will not fall into temptation. He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, and he knelt down and prayed, Father, if you’re willing to take this cup from me, if you’re willing take this cup from me, yet it’s not my will, but yours be done. I believe what Jesus was saying there to his Father, his Father, if there is any way for me to save these people, apart from me having to become sin for them, of taking upon myself every lousy, dirty, sinful thought and word that humanity has ever conjured up and take that upon myself and to the point where he who knew no sin became sin. Please, Father, if there’s any other way to do it, do it. And yet it’s not my will. Let’s yours be done. His desire was certainly expressed. I’m not just looking forward to becoming sin, but if that’s the only way that I can save these people, I’m going to do it. Is that something, or is that something guys? think about what Christ was going through before he ever went through what he was going through was the idea that I am going to have to go to a cross and there take upon myself the sins of the entire world. He who knew no sin, take upon himself the sins of the whole world.

If I were to ask you today, if I put a cross up here on this stage, and I ask you that what I want you to do is just secretly take a piece of paper and write down just one sin that you committed this week and come and nail it on the cross. Or better than that, list, all of them. Can you imagine how many pieces of paper there would be on that cross, and that’s just one day. This is for the entire world that our Lord had to sacrifice himself for you and me. And so he said, if you’re willing, if you’re willing, Lord, to do this, take this cup from me. And yet it’s not my will, but yours be done.

Now, an angel from heaven appeared to Him and strengthened him during that period of grief, and after being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground in so much agony over the fact of dying? No, there are many people who have gone to the electric chair and knew they were going to their death. It certainly didn’t go through those kind of things. His agony wasn’t over the fact he’s going to die. His agony was over the fact he’s going to have to become sin. I remember very early in my Christian experience as a brand new Christian, I was teaching Sunday school and a little church that we were in some bunch of kids, and the question came up about it. Didn’t understand sweating great drops of blood. And I remember saying to this one little teenage girl. I said, let me give you an illustration of that. I said, Do you believe that, do you believe that if, if you went out and and sinned and and so forth and so on, that you would sweat great drops of blood over this type of thing? Don’t think so. I said, let me ask you this, if you had to go out into a field tomorrow, and I told you, you’re going to have to go out into a field and be molested by 100 guys. What do you think you’d do? She said, I’d be sweating great drops of blood. Said exactly, and that’s exactly what happened to Jesus. He went out and was literally molested by all of us, all of our sins piled together upon him, and like I say, there, he knew no sin became sin for you and me, so that we could become the righteousness of God in him.
