Parable of the Education System

Parable of the Education System

Jesus Christ used parables to describe what the Kingdom of Heaven was like. This article represents a modern-day parable of the education system. As such systems of education are found in many countries, they are used to illustrate the Biblical truth about Salvation and how God expects His people to progress and mature from beginning (Initial Salvation) to the end (Final Salvation). 

The scripture verse that underscores the message in this post is this:

“It is written in the prophets, And THEY [ALL truly 'born-again' Christians] shall be ALL TAUGHT [PERSONALLY] of God [the Father].  Every [truly 'born-again'] man [or woman] therefore that hath HEARD, and hath LEARNED of [God] THE FATHER, COMETH UNTO ME [Jesus at the Rapture].”  (John 6:45)

Estimated reading time: 11 minutes

Key Takeaways

  • The article presents a modern-day parable of the education system, illustrating the spiritual journey from Initial Salvation to Final Salvation.
  • Just as students progress through educational phases, Christians must grow in faith and understanding to achieve eternal life.
  • The parable details five levels of spiritual maturity: Kindergarten, Primary, Secondary, University, and Post Graduate levels of faith.

The Gospel of Initial and Final Salvation

Initial and Final Salvation

Throughout the last two centuries of Christianity, the ‘gospel’ being preached centers upon Salvation through faith alone (Ephesians 2:9).

However, this Faith Alone ‘gospel’ fails to address the need for any accompanying “works” mentioned in Ephesians 2:10. In this, Paul said, we were “…created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them“.

Estimated reading time: 10 minutes

Key Takeaways

  • The article discusses the importance of both faith and works in achieving Initial and Final Salvation.
  • Initial Salvation occurs when a sinner accepts Christ, but it does not include works; Final Salvation requires works that produce spiritual fruit.
  • Scripture emphasizes the need for Christians to endure to the end, hold fast to hope, and demonstrate spiritual maturity through good works.
  • The article encourages readers to assess their faith journey and the signs of spiritual growth associated with Final Salvation.
  • Ultimately, both Initial and Final Salvation require a combination of faith and the fruits of works performed in a believer’s life.

Further Proof Most Christians are Not Saved!

Salvation Analysis for 2024

The article that follows presents new data that provides further proof that most Christians are not saved! This confirms the claim I made four years ago that MOST Christians are not saved.

In March 2020, I posted an article here titled, ‘PROOF that MOST Christians are NOT SAVED‘. The article used statistics from a Google advertising campaign I ran that proved (to me anyway) that Christians today have little regard for the Salvation that Jesus Christ purchased for them at the cross. I encourage you to read that article, to appreciate the basis of why I am now writing this article.

Paradise in Hell?

Burning in flames - No Salvation!

Do you know the Bible reveals there are five compartments within Hell? Most Christians will acknowledge there is a “hell” but know little more than that. But what about there being a Paradise in Hell, you say?

Estimated reading time: 6 minutes

Key Takeaways

  • The Bible describes five compartments of Hell. This includes Paradise and Hades, separated by a great gulf.
  • When Jesus died, He went to Paradise in Hell to preach to the spirits of the Old Testament saints awaiting redemption.
  • After three days and nights, Christ was resurrected from His death and became our High Priest in Heaven. He did this by offering His blood as the ultimate sacrifice.
  • Paradise in Hell has been empty for 2,000 years because truly ‘born-again’ Christians go directly to Heaven upon death.
  • To avoid Hell, Christians must obey the Apostle Paul’s Gospel, also referred to as ‘My Gospel.’

I recently read a blog post where the author believed Christ did NOT go to Hell. He explained the basis of his beliefs, but I reject his claims.
