Jong — Romans Seen from the Perspective of the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit (I) . Through Romans, Pastor Paul C. Jong clearly reveals — from the perspective of the gospel of the water and the Spirit — who the Apostle Paul was, why Jesus called him as the apostle to the Gentiles, and what the gospel of truth is that the Apostle Paul sought to convey plainly through Romans. He also shows accurately, through the Word, what the gospel by the righteousness of God is — the core theme that the Apostle Paul proclaimed. The Apostle Paul proclaimed one gospel — the righteousness of God,...

Galatians 3:27 — The True Meaning of “Putting On Christ”: The Baptism Received in Union with Christ

Bible Study · Galatians Galatians 3:27 — The True Meaning of “Putting On Christ”: The Baptism Received in Union with Christ A Preview of Pastor Paul C. Jong’s New Book on Galatians N The New Life Mission 7 min read In chapter 3, verse 27, the Apostle Paul gives the core answer: “For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” Then, does the phrase “those who were baptized into Christ” here simply refer to a person who has received a ceremonial water baptism? No. The meaning carried by the original Greek of this word is closer to “the one who has entered into the very baptism that Christ received.” That is, it refers to the one who is spiritually united with the event in which Jesus, by receiving the baptism of the laying on of hands from John the Baptist in the Jordan River, took upon Himself all the sins of humanity once and for all — the ...

Today Is the Time for You to Be Saved from Your Sins. Will You Accept God’s Invitation? – 2 Corinthians

Image
Today Is the Time for You to Be Saved from Your Sins. Will You Accept God’s Invitation? Just as a drowning man is pulled out of the stormy sea, God delivers us from our sins through the baptism Jesus received from John the Baptist and His blood on the Cross. Now is the day of salvation. “The grace of God” refers to the grace of salvation from sin accomplished through Jesus Christ. When seen from the perspective of the gospel of the water and the Spirit, this grace of salvation is revealed very clearly. God the Father sent Jesus Christ to this earth to solve the problem of humanity’s sins. Jesus came to this earth as the Savior of sinners and received the sins of the world passed onto His own body by being baptized by John the Baptist. Therefore, Jesus, bearing the sins of the world on His own body, was crucified, shed His precious blood, and received the judgment of sin in our place. And G...

Why Today's Church Is in Confusion — 1 Corinthians Explained Through the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit

Image
The Bible study book “ 1 Corinthians Seen from the Perspective of the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit ” by Rev. Paul C. Jong, a servant of God from The New Life Mission, is a book explained so that we may study in detail, through the First Epistle to the Corinthians — which the Apostle Paul recorded by receiving the work of the Holy Spirit — the answer to the question “On what must God’s Church stand?” addressed to today’s Church which is in the midst of confusion. Paul diagnoses all the problems of the Corinthian church — division, moral failure, the abuse of spiritual gifts, and the denial of the resurrection from the dead — within the very same “gospel of the water and the Spirit.” This is because the center of God’s Church had shifted to man, philosophy, doctrine, or other worldly religious systems. First Corinthians shows that many problems are resolved when God’s Church builds our faith not upon the wisdom of man, but upon the baptism, upon the judgment of the Cross, and upo...

We Become Holy and Sinless Before God by Believing in Jesus’s Work of Salvation. [Bible Study 24]

Image
Today, most believers in Jesus commit sins due to their own weakness and wickedness, and they try to wash them away by holding onto the blood of the Cross and offering prayers of repentance for the sins they commit daily. However, can sin be completely washed away from the heart by our own efforts or merits, such as repentance prayers or confession, while believing in the blood of the Cross? Because we are born with fundamental sin and live constantly committing sin, we can be saved and born again only by believing in the beautiful gospel of the water and the Spirit that Jesus accomplished on His part. To save all mankind completely from all sin, Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, taking upon Himself all the sins of the world; He paid the wages for those sins by being judged on the Cross, thereby eliminating all our sins, and gave us eternal life by resurrecting. By believing in this ministry of Jesus, we become born-again, holy people of God with no sin in our hearts. The content...

Whether one enters heaven depends on whether one believes in the Lord's work of salvation or not. [Bible Study 23]

Image
According to the Law given by God, there is no one without sin. Since we are born with sin as descendants of Adam, we must acknowledge that we are fundamentally sinners destined for hell, even if we do not commit sins through our actions. And we must have all the sins of our hearts removed through faith in the fact that Jesus, who is God, personally received baptism from John in the flesh, took upon Himself all the sins of the world, died on the cross as the price for our sins, and resurrected from the dead. This is the gospel of water and the Spirit, and it is the ‘law of faith’ originating from Jesus. Through Pastor Paul C. Jong’s book, “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” by the born-again servant of God from The New Life Mission, please examine in detail what the gospel of water and the Spirit is.
