Some Things Jesus Did Not Say Matthew 7:13-23

Misquotations Happens to many people –Sometimes accidentally –Sometimes done to misrepresent –Same is true of Jesus –Be careful (Colossians 3:17; 1 Peter 4:11)

When He Was Born One would think it was a major item –Judging from the celebration made –Day and month is unknown –Celebration is unauthorized

When He Was Born Most fail to observe His death –To be remembered (1 Corinthians 11:23-26) –Only authorized memorial (Acts 20:7) –No respect for what He said

Many Churches Men praise the division we have –“Attend the church of your choice” –Some are deceived –Others are knowingly teaching error

Many Churches Actual teaching is ignored –Willful ignorance (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12) –“My church” (Matthew 16:16-18) –Saved are added (Acts 2:47) –One church (Ephesians 4:4; 5:23)

Salvation By Faith Only Common belief –Overreaction to false teaching –Not saved by meritorious works –Must not overreact to false teaching

Salvation By Faith Only Clear on this matter –Faith is a work (John 6:29) –Faith w/o works is dead (James 2:17) –Takes God’s works (Mark 16:16) –Faith which works (Galatians 5:6) –Not by faith only (James 2:24)

Reigning On The Earth Arises from another false idea –Jewish misconception (Isaiah 53) –Wanted a liberator (Acts 1:6) –Others make the same mistake –Jewish rejection caused a delay –Kingdom was postponed

Reigning On The Earth Kingdom arrived on schedule –God’s plan (Ephesians 3:10, 11) –Keys (Matthew 16:18; Acts 2) –Paul’s statement (Colossians 1:13) –Returning (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) –To judge (Hebrews 9:27, 28)
