What is a Quaker?
What Do Quakers Believe?
I have watched these videos a number of times. When I think about Quakers and their beliefs I think that they are the true church of Christ. Quakers live a pretty simple beautiful life but they are not afraid to stand up against injustices like what is happening in America today. When I have read books based off of true historical things that happened, I would often find a Quaker somewhere in it who played a pretty significant part during that time period.
The gospel message of Yeshua, Jesus, the Christ, the Messiah, is a simple one but it is a profound one. Jesus, the Son of the Living God came to earth to take away the sins of the world. He took on himself the punishment for my sins, your sins, the world's sins. We owe Him our very existence. When Jesus lives in us, He Himself teaches us truths through the Spirit.
When man interprets scriptures, it puts a smoky film over truth. See and understand what the Nicolaitans and their teachings are. They and their teachings are what God hates (see the post 'God Hates The Deeds and the Doctrines' of the Nicolaitans'. That word 'Hates' is a big word for God to say. God loves us so much that He was willing to die for us but He hates injustice.
John 14:6 New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way and the truth[a] and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
The life that Jesus is referring to here is eternal life and Jesus even tells us what that is in John 17:3
John 17:3 New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)
3 (Jesus is speaking) [a]Now this is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
This knowledge of the only true God and of Jesus is a deep intimate knowledge like two people have of each other who are married. The Greek word translated 'know' is 'ginosko' meaning know absolutely.
