   sinner who repents. Repents means to turn 180 degrees and start walking   
   in the other direction. A wicked sinner walks in the direction of Satan and   
   his ways. A righteous servant walks in the direction of God and his ways.   
   These do not mean perfectly so, but mostly so. It is what you say and do   
   mostly that counts.   
      
   However, the repented one must keep walking in the new direction, or else   
   he or she will obtain the same end as any other wicked  sinner: The Lake Of   
   Fire Burning With Brimstone (which shall decreate the entity by separating   
   soul [God-created individual consciousness portion + God-created individual   
   will portion] from spirit [eternal universal God portion] (and the latter shall   
   return to God who lent it: "...and the spirit returns to God who gave it.   
   Ecclesiastes 12:7"), and the entity shall never exist again [i.e. shall perish,   
   shall obtain eternal death]).

   For the word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged

   Romans 3:24-25   
   Messiah Jesus, whom God has foreordained to be a propitiation through faith   
   in his blood for the remission of our sins that are past.   
      
   Hebrews 6:1   
   Therefore, let us leave the elementary word of Messiah, and let us go on to   
   perfection. Why do you again lay another foundation for the repentance from   
   past deeds, and for faith in God?   
      
   2 Peter 1:8-9   
   For when these things are found among you and abound, you are not empty   
   nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our LORD Jesus Christ. But he who lacks   
   these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and has forgotten that he was   
   cleansed from his former sins.

   Hebrews 6:1-8   
   Therefore, let us leave the elementary word of Christ, and let us go on to   
   perfection. Why do you again lay another foundation for the repentance   
   from past deeds, and for faith in God? And for the doctrine of baptisms,   
   and for the laying on of hands, and for the resurrection of the dead and   
   for eternal judgment? If the LORD permits, this we will do. But this is   
   impossible for those who have once been baptised, and have tasted the   
   gift from heaven, and have received the Holy Spirit, And have tasted the   
   good word of God, and the powers of the world to come. For, for them to   
   sin again, and be renewed again by repentance, they crucify the Son of   
   God a second time, and put him to open shame. For the earth which drinks   
   in the rain that falls abundantly on it, and brings forth herbs useful to those   
   for whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God. But if it should   
   produce thorns and briers it is rejected and not far from being condemned,   
   and at the end this crop will be burned.   
      
   2 Peter 2:20-22   
   For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through knowledge   
   of our Lord and Saviour Messiah Jesus, they are again entangled by these   
   very things, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the   
   beginning. Verily it would have been better for them not to have known the   
   way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy   
   commandment that was delivered to them. It will come to pass with them   
   according to the true proverb, The dog returns to his own vomit, and the   
   sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

   ARTICLE FOUR   
      
   BIBLE PROPHECY: SALVATION SHALL BE   
   BY THE GOOD WORKS OF LIVING FAITH   
      
   The Holy Bible clearly teaches that there are two types of works:   
   1. Works of the law;   
   2. Good works.   
      
   The Holy Bible also clearly teaches that there are two types of faith:   
   1. Dead faith;   
   2. Living faith.   
      
   The Holy Bible thus clearly teaches that salvation shall be by the   
   good works of living faith:   
      
   W O R K S:   W O R D S   A N D   D E E D S   
      
   Psalm 62:12   
   God rewards everyone ACCORDING TO WHAT THEY HAVE   
   DONE.   
      
   Proverbs 24:12   
   God will render to every man ACCORDING TO HIS WORKS.   
      
   Ecclesiastes 12:13-14   
   Fear God, and keep his commandments. For he will bring EVERY DEED   
   into judgment, whether it be good or evil.   
      
   Matthew 12:36-37   
   For I say to you that for every foolish WORD which men SPEAK, they   
   will have to answer for it on the day of judgment. For BY YOUR WORDS   
   you will be justified, and BY YOUR WORDS you will be found guilty.   
      
   John 5:28-29   
   Do not be amazed at this. For a time is coming when all those who are in   
   their graves will hear his voice and come out - those who have DONE what   
   is good will rise to live, and those who have DONE what is evil will rise to be   
   condemned.   
      
   Romans 2:6-11   
   God "will repay each person ACCORDING TO WHAT THEY HAVE DONE."   
   To those who continue patiently in good works seeking glory, honor, and   
   immortality, he will give eternal life. But to those who obey iniquity, he will   
   render indignation, wrath, suffering, and affliction.   
      
   Revelation 2:23   
   I will repay each of you ACCORDING TO YOUR DEEDS.   
      
   Revelation 20:12   
   The dead will be judged ACCORDING TO THEIR WORKS.   
      
   Revelation 20:13   
   Each person will be judged ACCORDING TO WHAT THEY   
   HAVE DONE.   
      
   James 2:14-26   
   Though a man say he has faith, what profit is it, my brethren, if he does not   
   have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked, and lacking   
   of daily food, And one of you say to them, Depart in peace, be warmed, and   
   be filled; yet you do not give to them those things which are needed for the   
   body, what does it profit? Even so faith, without works, is dead, by itself.   
   For   
   a man may say, You have faith, and I have works: show me your faith   
   without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe   
   that there is one God; you do well. The devils also believe, and they tremble.   
   Would you know, O weak man, that faith without works is dead? Was not   
   our father Abraham justified by works, when he raised Isaac his son upon   
   the altar? You can see, how his faith helped his works, and how by works his   
   faith was made perfect. And the scripture was fulfilled which said, Abraham   
   believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness: and he was   
   called the Friend of God. You see then, how a man by works becomes   
   righteous, and not by faith only. Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot,   
   justified by works, when she welcomed the spies, and sent them out another   
   way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works   
   is dead.

   ARTICLE FIVE   
      
   BIBLE PROPHECY: JESUS SHALL RETURN TO   
   EARTH FOR A ONE THOUSAND YEAR STAY   
      
   The Holy Bible plainly tells us that Jesus shall return to earth for a   
   one thousand year stay:   
      
   Revelation 20   
   And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the   
   bottomless pit, and a great chain in his hand. And he seized the dragon,   
   that old serpent, which is the Tempter and Satan, who deceived the whole   
   world, and bound him a thousand years, and cast him into the bottomless   
   pit, and shut him up and set a seal over him, that he should no more   
   deceive the nations until the thousand years should be fulfilled: after that   
   he will be loosed for a short time. And I saw thrones, and they sat upon   
   them, and judgment was given to them. And the souls of those who were
