[Matthew 17:5]

While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!"

As Jesus and his disciples ascended a high mountain, a radiant light suddenly appeared on Jesus' face, and his appearance changed to that of heaven.

A cloud came and covered them, and a voice came from the cloud: "Listen only to Jesus."

Whose words must we listen to in order to be saved?

Jesus, who bore all the sins of humanity, died on the cross, shed His blood to save us, and rose again three days later, conquering death.

Only those who believe in Jesus Christ, the Lord of life, will enter heaven.

Our faith is to obey God's Word and to put our faith in our hearts into action in our lives.

We must perfect our faith through obedience.

Luther's doctrine of justification by faith alone is deeply flawed, contradicting the Bible.

Since Jehovah came to this earth in the name of Jesus, the way to serve God has changed.

It is different from the time of Moses, who received the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai and led the Israelites to Jehovah.

And the era of Elijah, who led the Israelites, who had fallen into idolatry, to Jehovah through God's power, has also passed.

The era of the Old Testament law and the prophets continued until John the Baptist.

Since the coming of Jesus, all must enter heaven by believing in Jesus Christ, who shed His blood, died, and rose again on the cross.

The Creator God has always been one. In the Old Testament, the one God existed as the Word and a spiritual being.

Jehovah God came to the world in the flesh through Mary and in the name of Jesus.

God the Father and the Son are one being, and therefore, anyone who separates the Father and the Son is a heretic.

Jesus Christ is the God who came in the name of the Son. Anyone who has seen Jesus has seen God the Father.

Jesus, the Word made flesh and descended to this earth, is Jehovah God Himself.

God is one, God is one, God is one forever.

[Luke 16:16]

"The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.

No one living on this earth can enter heaven without the name of Jesus. It is absolutely impossible through any other name.

That is why Jesus is referred to as the gate of the sheep. The gate of the sheep refers to the gate to heaven.

The atoning blood of the Lamb represents the blood of Jesus. Without the blood of Jesus, no one can receive forgiveness of sins.

Therefore, Jesus likened himself to the atoning lamb and the high priest.

[ Luke 20:41-44]

Then Jesus said to them, "How is it that they say the Christis the Son of David?

David himself declares in the Book of Psalms: " 'The Lord said to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet." '

David calls him 'Lord.' How then can he be his son?"

Sometimes Jesus is called the Son of David.

However, Jesus is not a descendant of David. He is the Creator God who came to the world through the lineage of David.

God used Mary's body to take on human flesh. Jesus is by no means Mary's son.

[ Luke 24:44-48]

He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms."

Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.

He told them, "This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.

Jesus, the one and only God, died for the sins of humanity and was resurrected, the only Savior.

Regarding the path to salvation, we must not listen to any human words, but only to the words of Jesus Christ.

Jesus cried out, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

These words of Jesus alone are the gospel of the kingdom of heaven and the path to our salvation.

Those who believe in Jesus Christ and repent of their sins live in blessing and enter heaven, while those who do not repent live in curses and go to hell.

However, many pastors and church members abandon the Word of God written in the Bible and prioritize human doctrines.

These people elevate human doctrines, which cannot save us, above the authority of the Bible.

Those who prioritize human doctrines over the Bible are legalists and possess a mere formality of faith.

Do not forget that countless Jews went to hell after following human doctrines that offer no salvation.

Those who believe in human-made doctrines act contrary to the Word of God.

Those who rebel against and oppose God can never enter heaven.
