(His Statement below in BOLD BLUE)

"When we give our lives to God, He makes us a new creation. He doesn't just refurbish what's here but rather makes us completely new." (This is the LIE!)

This lie is being taught in the church today and fosters a "cheap grace" religious walk among modern church membership. God does NOT in any way change your "sinful nature" if He did so any surrendered "born again" Christian would be as perfect as Adam and Eve were (before the fall). This teaching is leading many millions into a "false gospel" the scripture doesn't teach. This is a (personal perfectionism) teaching that misleads the individual to believe that just because they have believed and been baptized that now their sinful nature is gone, that they have been (made completely new) and that's a LIE friends.

Nothing about your personal (sinful nature) changes when you give your life to God. Common sense proves the fact as ALL Christians still SIN after their belief in God, are surrendered, and even "born again" in their spirits, they still are sinful by nature. Your sinful nature does NOT change when you accept Jesus as your Savior, believe, die to self, are baptized, and experience the (new Birth), you are still a sinner with a sinful nature prone to SIN until you draw your last breath of life. The human sinful nature is (irredeemable) and it cannot be changed. If it could be changed at your decision to follow Jesus then these events would NOT be necessary for the believer in Jesus Christ before they can enter into Paradise with God when Jesus returns back to this Earth.

1Co 15:51-54 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

It is ONLY at this time that any of God's people will be completely a (new you) any other teaching as to becoming a (new you) is a modern LIE, that cannot be backed up by scripture. This is the teaching of (cheap grace) religion personified by a modern-day "wanna-be" minister's who have limited knowledge about what the real truth of scripture teaches concerning the (New Birth) in Jesus Christ. Every (born again) believer is still a corrupt (sinner) by nature and their sinful nature is NOT changed to some (new you) when you make your decision for Jesus Christ. The scripture is clear that a human being cannot change their natures, nor does God change their natures when they come to Him. If that were remotely true then there would be no need for (sanctification) through the work of the Holy Spirit in the (born again) believer. The Christians (spiritual nature) even after the (New Birth) is still a sinful spiritual nature controlled by what Paul called the (Law of sin in my members). Rom 7:23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

God, Himself says through Jeremiah the prophet Jer 13:23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil. The sinful nature is irredeemable and must be destroyed or changed by God at the Second Coming of Jesus, it is so sinful that a great change must take place BEFORE even the Christian can be caught up to meet the Lord in the clouds. There's no such thing as any (new you) when you come to Christ. Yes' there's a new (mindset) but the physical human being is not changed into any (new Individual) other than a personal (new mindset) bent towards service to God. That is ALL that is changed in the (New Birth) experience.

Every (saint) of God is still seen by God as a sinful human being even during their sanctification period performed by the indwelling Spirit of God. Sanctification is the work of the Spirit of God, but for the believer in (cheap grace), they believe that just because they made a decision of Christ, that now they are somewhat beyond personal sin all because of God's (grace) extended towards them. They use this verse 2Co 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. This verse isn't speaking of the physical human being as the physical human being. It's speaking of the (new mindset) of the believer in Jesus Christ, a mind bent towards God, where before it was bent towards (self), in this respect then (all things are become new.)

The use of the word "are" in the phrase "all things are become new" and did NOT use the word "have" such as then would read "all things have become new" indicates that the (New Birth) experience is an (ongoing experience, a lifetime of being sanctified (set apart-changed) from the moment you experience the New Birth until you breathe your last breath in life. The word "are" is in the present-future tense that signifies an ongoing (changing) being changed moment by moment by the Spirit of God, whereas the word "have" is past present tense that signifies a (once and for all) change in the believer which is contrary to sanctification. That is why the verse reads "all things are become new" they (all things) ARE new from that instant of the New Birth, but the ARE [present-future tense ] will never be the HAVE [past present tense ] until your breath your last. The ARE is the sanctification beginning for the born again Christian and is a lifetime process as long as the sinful nature of man lives or until they are changed at the second coming.

This kind of preaching is deceptive in that it leads the new believer to believe that because of God's grace towards them, that now they don't have to worry about sinning any longer because through (grace) they have a dedicated (mercy) towards them regardless of how they live their lives. This kind of belief is the (epitome of presumption) upon the grace of God. Satan exudes joy when a new Christian believes such heresy as he knows better than the new Christian, that presuming upon the grace of God by believing that just because you are a believer, baptized, and with this mindset believes that they are (born again) while they still make no changes in their lives because they believe (grace has them covered) now, gives him satisfaction in that those same people will deceive many others in a false gospel the scripture stands against.

SUMMARY: Friends, when you come to Jesus Christ through personal knowledge of Him, you choose to (die to self) and you're baptized into the Christian religion, you experience the (New Birth) in your life, and the sanctification through the Holy Spirit then begins in your life from that point forward. YOUR SINFUL NATURE IS AND DOES NOT CHANG! It cannot be changed as Jesus said John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. The (TWO) are as separate as night and day and are diametrically opposed to each other the two cannot be reconciled into one. Your sinful nature in your members will be with the believer as long as the believer is alive, it cannot be changed into a (new you), it must be destroyed or changed by God Himself it's irredeemable, it's tainted, it's against God and it cannot be changed. They only (new You) is that you're (your mind) is now in Christ Jesus apart for your SELF.

Any (new you) as this man preaches is still a selfish YOU because YOU haven't changed as to who YOU are, just because YOU chose to follow Jesus Christ, YOU are still a sinful human being and YOU still SIN, even if it's a mental picture in YOU'RE mind unconfessed to God, or if it's what YOU call a (small lie) which there is no such thing, or if YOU sin by omission, YOU'RE still a sinner by YOU'RE very nature in the process of sanctification through the Spirit. There will NEVER be a (NEW YOU) this side of eternity and to preach such heresy is to be self-deceived YOUR self.

The WATCHMAN !!!
