Seeing my Redeemer in Agony with a few minutes left to live on earth was very tough to watch. My Redeemer said Seven Statements from the Cross that He wants all of us to live by.
My Redeemer wants the reader to know the statements are a true fact verified by over 25,000 Documents and Copies of the Original. The Writers who documented these Truths in the Original Greek New Testament were murdered for writing them down and passing them on. These Writers were willing to put their life on the line for their belief.
The enemy knows there are true genuine people in this World. As I say this I recall in my mind a passage in the Ancient Scrolls when my Redeemer said,
"Yet I reserve seven thousand in Israel--all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him." 1Kings 19:18
However, the enemy tries to the Father to think differently. My Redeemer also reminded me that the enemy accuses the reader and me day and night before Him.
Revelation 12:10
"Skin for skin!" Satan replied. "A man will give all he has for his own life. But now stretch out your hand and strike his flesh and bones, and he will surely curse you to your face."
Job 2:4-5
This was the enemy speculating on the sincerity of God and Mankind namely Job.
However, look at just a few people that didn't bow down in the face of adversity. In fact the proof that all of what my Redeemer said and did is the fact that all of these people died for what they believed in.
The message of my Redeemer was so important to these people they were willing to lay down their lives with no reward on this earth waiting for them but they held out for a city with foundations, whose architect and builder is their Redeemer furthermore, none of them received what had been promised however my Redeemer had something Better.... Hebrews 11

James Eliot October 8, 1927 – January 8, 1956
My Redeemer reminded me of Hebrews 11 where Faith was put into Action! All of these people were willing to lay it all on the line for my Redeemer and so must I.
The following Seven Powerful statements by my Redeemer are true but the observations are only my perspective. My Redeemer wants the Reader to come up with His or Her own observations and conclusions.
My Redeemer reminds me often that we are not created as robots and should never be deceived by future cults that would try to deceive us into a different slavery and bondage with rules and regulations that He destroyed at the Cross.
My Redeemer's Spirit known as God the Spirit reminds me often that Religion is mankind's self made system trying to reach an un reachable God but my Redeemer's plan was for an un reachable God to reach mankind. My Redeemer did for me what I couldn't do for myself. Fortunate for me is the fact that the message got passed on by people who were willing to put their lives at stake for our Redeemer's Message!
"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose."
James Eliot
Tomorrow I begin with my Redeemer's first statement on my road to a New Beginning!
