About Beryl

I am a Christian according to the holy scriptures which prove Jesus is the only wise God and Saviour. My God is one person with many names: a Holy Spirit, the Holy One of Israel, the mighty God and everlasting Father: Jesus, the blessed and only Potentate, the only wise God and Saviour. He declared all the counsel of the thoughts of his heart from the beginning by which he pronounced all his pure and perfect words in the first and only pure language; he is the author of all his 66 books and he preserved every jot and tittle of every pure word for all generations so every person can know with certainty the words of truth. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Romans 3:24 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; Romans 3:25 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Romans 3:26 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. John 5:25

What is the pure language?

There is only one book of the Lord that can fulfil that which is required to be the true book of the LORD.

If this particular book is not the book of the LORD, then bring forth a more perfect book and let us examine it and try the spirits whether they be of God.

The book can and will stand on its own.
Only one book can satisfy all the precepts (book, chapter and line) which are found in this study.
The words of the LORD cannot be changed, nor translated into another language and still be the pure and perfect words which proceeded out of the mouth of the Lord when he pronounced every letter with his lips, he alone is the author, and he preserved every jot and tittle for every generations so that every person can know with certainty the words of truth.
All other books are of men, of the flesh, of the wisdom of this world and all other books which men profess to be the word of their god is of their father the devil.

There is only one gospel and that is the book of the LORD; from Genesis through Revelation.
The Lord declared all the counsel of the thoughts of his heart from the beginning and preserved every pure word of his pure language for all generations so that every person can know with certainty the words of truth.

The word of God is settled in heaven for ever and there is no new thing under the sun:

For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.  Psalms 119:89
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.  Ecclesiastes 1:9
Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.  Ecclesiastes 1:10

And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;  Luke 1:69
As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:  Luke1:70
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.  Romans 1:16
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.  Romans 1:17

The Lord declared all the counsel of the thoughts of his heart from the beginning:

Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,  Isaiah 46:9
Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:  Isaiah 46:10
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.  Genesis 11:1

Every generation had all the counsel of the thoughts of the Lord’s heart and the Lord never had a new counsel of his heart to day that Adam did not have.  Every generation had all the counsel of the LORD from the beginning:

The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.  Psalms33:11

But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.  Matthew 4:4

When did ever word of God proceed out of the mouth of the LORD?  Read Isaiah 46 lines 9 and 10 above.

It is the book of the Lord which doth contain every pure word of God:

Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.  Isaiah 34:16
And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them by line: they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation shall they dwell therein.  Isaiah 34:17

In the beginning the whole earth spoke one language, it is the only pure language made of pure words which the Lord promised to preserve every jot and tittle of every word and shall not alter any word which he declared and pronounced with his lips:

For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent.  Zephaniah 3:9
The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.  Psalms 12:6
Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.  Psalms 12:7
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.  Psalms 89:34

The Lord alone is the author of his book;  and the Lord preserved his book through those that published it in every generation.

Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge,  Proverbs 22:20
That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?  Proverbs 22:21
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.  Matthew 5:18
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.  Hebrews 12:2

Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.  Psalms 119:160

One Lord, one faith, one baptism,  Ephesians 4:5
Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;  Philippians 1:27
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.  Romans 4:5
Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.  Habakkuk 2:4
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.  Romans 10:17

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.  Ecclesiastes 1:9
Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.  Ecclesiastes1:10

The Lord declared the end from the beginning and the book of Acts is in his book which will reveal the name of the Lord’s pure language:

And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.  Acts 26:14
What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?  Romans 3:1
Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.  Romans 3:2
For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?  Romans 3:3
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.  Romans 3:4

For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:  Revelation 22:18
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.  Revelation 22:19
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.  Deuteronomy 4:2

Not one new scripture line could have been written after Deuteronomy 4 line 2 because the Lord declared every word from the beginning and it was already known as scripture before any man heard the first word of God.

The book of Daniel is called scripture before Daniel wrote the book of Daniel; because Daniel is not the author! The Lord is the author; consider Daniel 10:21 through Daniel 11 line 2.

But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.  Daniel 10:21
And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.  Daniel 11:2

Daniel, like Luke fulfilled the scriptures when they wrote their copy of a portion of the book of the Lord and Adam understood that when they wrote their copy the scripture was fulfilled:

Adam and Theophilus knew the book of Luke before Luke wrote the book of Luke; and when Luke wrote the book of Luke at the appointed time, Adam and Theophilus knew that prophecy which the Lord declared from the beginning, was then fulfilled.
Luke made a copy of the book of Luke, as many had since the world began. Luke wrote this to Theophilus, and before he wrote the book, Theophilus already had a copy of it.  The purpose of writing the book to Theophilus, was so Theolphus could know the certainty of those things he had already been instructed.  Read these 4 lines and get understanding:

Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,  Luke 1:1
Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;  Luke 1:2
It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,  Luke 1:3
That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.  Luke 1:4

When Philip read to the man from Ethiopia, they did not read the words found in the book of Isaiah.  They read the words which are only found in the book of Acts:

And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?  Acts 8:30
And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.  Acts8:31
The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:  Acts 8:32
In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.  Acts8:33

But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.  Matthew 4:4

Question: when did every word proceed out of the mouth of God?

Answer, once again:

Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,  Isaiah 46:9
Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:  Isaiah 46:10

The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.  Psalms33:11

Question:  Did the Lord ever have a new thought that he did not have before?
Certainly not!

Therefore, every generation had every word of God from the beginning.

Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.  Psalms 119:160
I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.  Hosea 8:12

Consider this: in the beginning there was only one language.  The Lord declared the end from the beginning and in the beginning he gave the book of Acts which the Lord himself spoke to Saul in the Hebrew tongue.  Therefore the first and only pure language made of pure words must be the Hebrew tongue.

To say the new testament was first written in the Greek tongue is a lie.  The words declared from the beginning by the Lord were written and preserved as the Lord pronounced every pure word with his lips, he alone is the author and he preserved them for all generations so every person can know with certainty the pure words of the pure language of the Lord in every generation.

Consider these precepts and know with certainty the pure language is the Hebrew tongue:

And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.  Acts 26:14
And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,  Acts 21:40
Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you.  Acts 22:1
(And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)  Acts 22:2

The Greeks nor any other alien speaking people had the advantage which the Jews had.  Consider these precepts:

What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?  Romans 3:1
Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.  Romans 3:2
For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?  Romans 3:3
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.  Romans 3:4

Question:
What is the true Hebrew tongue?

Consider this:
If we are in the generation of the Lord’s return, (I believe we are), then which language is the most powerful language to day?
If this language is not the chief language of a country, then which language would be the second language spoken by the people of the earth?  Which ever language it is, it must be likened to the same language spoken in the days of Noah.

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.  Genesis 11:1
For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,  Matthew 24:38
And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  Matthew 24:39

Many like Peter Ruckman who profess the book men call King James to be a perfect translation, err, because there is no such thing.  Such a book cannot contain the words which the Lord pronounced with his lips, wrote and preserved for ever. Either the book is the perfect book of the LORD or it is not.

I put no trust in the chronicles of men.

Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.  Jeremiah 17:5

I have not found any other book, but the book men call King James (published by Cambridge), that hath mate lines to fulfil that which is required to be the true book of the LORD Jesus.
It is by faith that I put my trust and faith in this book and profess with all my heart it to be the true book of the LORD.

Consider the Lord likened his return to the days of Noah and in Noah’s day the whole earth was of one language.  I believe we are in the generation of the Lord’s return; and if so what then is the most powerful language to day?  If it is not the chief language of any country, it is a strong second.

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  Matthew 24:37
And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.  Luke 17:26

We know the whole earth is using the following for heat, language, time and place and it is all of the land and tongue men call England and English:
BTU.
Longitude and Latitude.
Time.

The language we use to day however is confusion. Consider the word (You).  The word (You) to day can be one person or a multitude of persons.  Whereas in the book of the Lord the word (You) is always more than one person and the words (thee), (thou) and (thine) are always for one person.

The chronicles of men will have the world believe the letter to the king in the beginning of our book of the Lord was written by men that were hired by King James to translate out of the so called (original) languages of (Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic and Syriac) into the language of the Gentile year of 1611.

This is a lie, for 2 reasons:
1). The book of the Lord can only be in one language because the Lord declared all the counsel of the thoughts of his heart in the first and only pure language made of pure words which he pronounced with his lips and preserved every jot and tittle he set in perfect order for all time.

2). When reading this letter to the king found in many copies of the book men call AKJ, the author or authors called the king (Your) and (You); when not one time from Genesis through Revelation is one person ever called (You)!  Therefore there is no reason to believe this fable, because the king would have been called (thine) and (thou).

And because calling one person: (you) or (your) there is confusion, many people therefore think the Lord Jesus is a second person of a three persons false god.

The true God is one person and this person is JESUS.

Jesus is the only wise God and blessed and only Potentate.

That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:  1 Timothy 6:14
Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;  1 Timothy 6:15
Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.  1 Timothy 6:16

If the Lord were more than one person, Moses and Aaron would have given the Lord an omer for every person.  The Lord received one omer, because the LORD is one person:

And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.  Exodus 16:15
This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents.  Exodus16:16
And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.  Exodus 16:22
And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations.  Exodus 16:33

The Lord is known by many names and he is one person.  Job worshipped the Lord in spirit and in truth and admonished all those who secretly accept persons knowing how the Lord rebuked those in John Chapter 8 lines 24 through 27 who did not know him as the Father.

For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?  Hebrews 1:5

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.  Isaiah 9:6
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.  John 14:8
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?  John 14:9

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.  1 John 5:7
Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God?  Job 13:8
He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.  Job 13:10
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.  John 8:24
Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.  John 8:25
I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.  John 8:26
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.  John 8:27

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:  Deuteronomy 6:4
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.  John 20:28
Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.  John 20:29
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.  Revelation 21:8
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.  2 Peter 3:9

Jesus said: My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.

My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.  Job 30:27

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:  Deuteronomy 6:4
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.  John 20:28
Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.  John 20:29

And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.  Genesis 22:8

And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin offering.  Leviticus 5:9
And he shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the manner: and the priest shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.  Leviticus 5:10
And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.  Hebrews 9:22

Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it, even a memorial thereof, and burn it on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: it is a sin offering.  Leviticus 5:12
And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest’s, as a meat offering.  Leviticus 5:13
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.  Philippians 2:8
We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.  Hebrews 13:10
For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.  Hebrews 13:11
Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.  Hebrews 13:12
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.  1 Timothy 3:16
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.  Psalms 40:8
Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.  Hebrews 10:7
Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.  Hebrews 10:9
And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.  Luke 24:27
And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.  Luke 24:44
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.  John 2:19
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?  John 2:20
But he spake of the temple of his body.  John 2:21
And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,  Luke 22:41
Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.  Luke 22:42
And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.  Luke 22:43
And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.  Luke 22:44
The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:  Revelation 14:10

For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.  Isaiah 53:2
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.  Isaiah 53:3
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.  Isaiah 53:4

Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.  John 8:25

I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.  John 8:26

They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.  John 8:27

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.  Hebrews 13:8

For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.  Malachi 3:6

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.  John 4:24

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.  John 17:17

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:  Deuteronomy 6:4

And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.  John 20:28

Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.  John 20:29

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;  1 Corinthians 15:1

By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.  1 Corinthians 15:2

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;  1 Corinthians 15:3

And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:  1 Corinthians 15:4

For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?  Romans 3:3

God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.  Romans 3:4

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.  Revelation 21:8

The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?  Isaiah 33:14

Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.  Mark 9:44

Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.  Mark 9:46

Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.  Mark 9:48

Is not destruction to the wicked? and a strange punishment to the workers of iniquity?  Job 31:3

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.  2 Peter 3:9

And of some have compassion, making a difference:  Jude 1:22

And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.  Jude 1:23

For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;  Romans 1:11

That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:  1 Timothy 6:14

Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;  1 Timothy 6:15

Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.  1 Timothy 6:16 

Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.  1 Timothy 1:17

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;  1 Timothy 2:5

To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.  Jude 1:25

Natural water baptism is but a token of the spiritual water baptism

The natural water baptism is but a token of the spiritual water baptism.

Example of that which is of the flesh is but for a token, (a sign of witness, and profession of faith) for that which is spiritual:

Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. Romans 4:8
Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. Romans 4:9
How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. Romans 4:10
And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also: Romans 4:11

And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you. Genesis 17:11
And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh: Ezekiel 11:19
That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God. Ezekiel 11:20
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. Ezekiel 36:26
And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. Ezekiel 36:27
In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant because of all your abominations. Ezekiel 44:7
Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel. Ezekiel 44:9

Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. Deuteronomy 10:16
And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. Deuteronomy 30:6
Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings. Jeremiah 4:4

The following are precepts and my reasoning with those who professed, in error, the natural water baptism was required to be saved.

There is the doctrine of baptisms and the natural water baptism is only a token, as is the circumcision of the flesh is a token of that which is spiritual.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.  John 6:63

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;  Titus 3:5

That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,  Ephesians 5:26

For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. Hebrews 5:12
For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. Hebrews 5:13
But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Hebrews 5:14
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, Hebrews 6:1
Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. Hebrews 6:2

Now concerning the natural water baptism, such a baptism is not done as we find in so many congregations (sprinkling of water by one on another; nor one putting the other under the water); the baptism by natural water as the token of the spiritual baptism is done on this wise.

The eunuch and Philip both went into the water; both Philip and the eunuch as we find in the holy scriptures and not by the traditions of men.

And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? Acts 8:36
And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Acts8:37
And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. Acts 8:38
And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. Acts 8:39

Such a natural water baptism is a token of this spiritual work of the Lord Jesus.  This spiritual baptism is the same which the malefactor received who was saved by the Lord when he believed the precious promises of the LORD by faith; and it was not the natural water baptism which the eunuch received:

John 3:3-6
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
[4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? [5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
[6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

1 Corinthians 10:1-4
Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
[2] And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; [3] And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
[4] And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Isaiah 41:17
When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.

John 4:5-14
Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
[6] Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
[7] There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
[8] (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.) [9] Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
[10] Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
[11] The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
[12] Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? [13] Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
[14] But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

John 7:37-38
In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
[38] He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Song of Solomon 4:15
A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.

Revelation 21:6
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:10
And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. Luke 23:39
But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? Luke 23:40
And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. Luke 23:41
And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. Luke 23:42
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. Luke 23:43
 

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Titus 3:5
That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, Ephesians 5:26
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Colossians 3:1
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. Colossians 3:2
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Colossians 3:3
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. Colossians 3:4

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 1 John 3:1
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:2
And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 1 John 3:5
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Titus 2:13

Beryl

p.s. the last 5 lines of the precepts above are set in order to once again prove the Lord Jesus is both the Son and the Father; for it is the Lord Jesus who will appear and he alone is doing the appearing and not another.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

The sin nature of all and the gift of God, the Lord JESUS the blessed and only Potentate.

And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat. Genesis 3:12
And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. Genesis 3:13

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Romans 5:12
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23
Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Psalms 51:5
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 1 John 3:4
For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. James 2:10
But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:28
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. Matthew 5:22

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23
For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Romans 5:17
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Romans 3:24
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; Romans 3:25
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Romans 3:26
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: Deuteronomy 6:4
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. John 20:28
Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. John 20:29
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 1 John 5:7
Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God? Job 13:8
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. 1 Timothy 3:16
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 1 John 3:1
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:2
And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 1 John 3:5
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. John 4:24
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 1 John 4:15
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 1 John 4:16

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 1 Corinthians 15:1
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:2
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15:3
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:4

DNA and the temple of Christ Jesus

See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Ephesians 5:15
Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:16

Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Revelation 3:12

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 Peter 2:1
And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 2 Peter 2:2
And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. 2 Peter 2:3
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; 2 Peter 2:4
And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; 2 Peter 2:5
And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; 2 Peter 2:6
And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: 2 Peter 2:7
(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) 2 Peter 2:8
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: 2 Peter 2:9
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. 2 Peter 2:10
Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. 2 Peter 2:11
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; 2 Peter 2:12
And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 2 Peter 2:13
Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 2 Peter 2:14
Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 2 Peter 2:15
But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 2 Peter 2:16
These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 2 Peter 2:17
For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 2 Peter 2:18
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 2 Peter 2:19
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 2 Peter 2:20
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 2 Peter 2:21
But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. 2 Peter 2:22

PSALM 1

BLESSED is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

that he entered into a certain village: and a

him into her house.
39 And she had a sister called Mary,
which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his
word.
40 But Martha was cumbered about much
serving, and came to him, and said, Lord,
dost thou not care that my sister hath left
me to serve alone? bid her therefore that
she help me.
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her,
Martha, Martha, thou art careful and
troubled about many things:

hath chosen that good part, which shall
not be taken away from her.

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every
thing by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be made
known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are
true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever
things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good
report; if there be any virtue, and if there
be any praise, think on these things.
9 Those things, which ye have both
learned, and received, and heard, and seen
in me, do: and the God of peace shall be
with you.
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that
now at the last your care of me hath
flourished again; wherein ye were also
careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for
I have learned, in whatsoever state I am,
therewith to be content.
12 I know both how to be abased, and I
know how to abound: every where and in
all things I am instructed both to be full
and to be hungry, both to abound and to
suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ
which strengtheneth me.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN. 
CHAPTER 14:

15 ¶ If ye love me, keep my
commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall
give you another Comforter, that he may
abide with you for ever;

26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy
Ghost, whom the Father will send in my
name, he shall teach you all things, and
bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.

18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will
come to you.

CHAPTER 16:

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is
expedient for you that I go away: for if I
go not away, the Comforter will not come
unto you; but if I depart, I will send him
unto you.

CHAPTER 3:

IF ye then be risen with Christ, seek those
things which are above, where Christ
sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above, not
on things on the earth.
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with
Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall
appear, then shall ye also appear with him
in glory.

CHAPTER 3:

BEHOLD, what manner of love the Father
hath bestowed upon us, that we should be
called the sons of God: therefore the world
knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God,
and it doth not yet appear what we shall
be: but we know that, when he shall
appear, we shall be like him; for we shall
see him as he is.
5 And ye know that he was manifested to
take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

CHAPTER 4:

13 But I would not have you to be
ignorant, brethren, concerning them which
are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as
others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and
rose again, even so them also which sleep
in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word
of the Lord, that we which are alive and
remain unto the coming of the Lord shall
not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel, and with the trump of
God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and
so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with
these words.

the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus

24 But let him that glorieth glory in this,
that he understandeth and knoweth me,
that I am the LORD which exercise
lovingkindness, judgment, and
righteousness, in the earth: for in these
things I delight, saith the LORD.

I SAY the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,

3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
