THE REDEEMED THROUGH JEALOUSY OF NEVER-ENDING LOVE ONCE SAVED ARE YOU SAVED FOREVER? – By Lakshman Navaratne

Lakshman Navartne

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.

Psalm 51:10

Revealed to a Born-again in Christ, our salvation is an act of commitment, continued throughout our life-time on earth as a process of sanctification by the spirit of Pentecost, to inherit the new earth promised in the 66 books of scripture. [A]

The new way of Judaism accomplished by Jesus is the only way of salvation for mankind. This is the Apostolic Christianity practiced and preached until the third century after Pentecost. The Colonial, theological and academic Christianity preached inside magnificent structures has deviated so far away from the humble truth inculcated in the faithful-Fishermen used by their teacher.   

All humans are linked to the soul of the First Man ADAM, was the resting place of the Sovereign, Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent God. This is the GOD-BLOOD-RACE, making Adam the first son of God!

The Land of the Living is our inheritance!

The Bible documents; Adam was put to a deep sleep, and a Bone-piece of Adam was used to make the First Human mother EVE.

Today we know; Human Blood is manufactured in the Bone Marrow. So, this blood has not ceased to live in the Kingdom, God prepared for Himself to rest in his paradise earth.

One command God gave Adam was; to follow his heart, where he placed his living blood. Human blood was the last and the supreme product (matter) of the Light that was separated on the First day of Creation. [B] 

So, who snared Eve to Disobey the Maker? Now mankind decided to follow the non-luminous spirit of darkness (wickedness) over holiness for the rest of their life expectancy on planet earth!

Today almost 7000 years later, through an event that took place in 33 AD. “Pentecost”, we have the power to rebuke the Darkness (Wickedness) that occupies the human heart. The power to discern the spirit of darkness!

The four Gospels tell us the complete story of our Redemption plan through a replacement to Adam; a Son of God who Obeyed whole heartedly! [B]

This is human Jesus, who God glorified as our Lord and Savior; the Son of Man who shall Judge Humanity! [B]

The Bible documents the history of humanity; how Abram was called out of the world of wickedness to a land filled with milk and honey, where He shall be their God!

Through his jealousy, God gave them Laws to abide by to live a Holy Life!       

Exodus 20: “2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.

3 “You shall have no other gods before me.

4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

7 “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.

When the Lord your God brings you into the land which you go to possess, and has cast out many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you, 2 and when the Lord your God delivers them over to you, you shall conquer them and utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them. 3 Nor shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to their son, nor take their daughter for your son. 4 For they will turn your sons away from following Me, to serve other gods; so, the anger of the Lord will be aroused against you and destroy you suddenly. 5 But thus you shall deal with them: you shall destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.

The Israelites have tried many times over to remain holy, the darkness has prevailed over them.

This is the same God we Christians adore and believe!

Today 4000 years later in the history of humanity on earth, all nations on earth claim that there is only one God.

The New Judaism (Christianity) is only 2000 years since the day of Pentecost!

So, if any one claims to follow the “New Judaism”, the WAY OF CHRIST, they are not Jews. A true Jew will never forsake their God “I AM”, who brought them out of Egypt to a promised land. [B]

The New Testament epistle writer “Paul the Jew”, assures humanity the promise of Pentecost.

Since the day of Pentecost, all nations of the globe were given the opportunity to accept the free gift of belonging to this JEALOUS OWNER of humanity.

So, Embracing the Bible (Word), we become that CHOSEN race, belonging to the God of Hebrews!

Embracing the Bible and meditating on the written word is the ONLY possible way the Author of the word will reveal Himself to the reader. This is the Author of Life and the Redeemer of Humanity. [A]

The Son of Man will Judge the Nations! Matthew 25.

Revelation 20:6, “Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.”

Jewish Apostle John who was used to write the Revelation was a living witness to the death, resurrection and Glorification of the Son of Man in eternity. So, this is the only living evidence of a son of man as God for all mankind. [B]   

The 27 books of the New Testament is the operation of Grace in letter; revealed only to those who have accepted the free gift of redemption poured upon humanity on the day of Pentecost.

So, the nations that were destroyed, and the destruction of alters to unknown gods, in the Old Testament; were the divine work of the jealous God. We shall only know the final verdicts and the reasons only at the last judgment, the second resurrection of the human soul in the book of Revelation, as documented in Matthew 25; “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.”

Lord God of Israel have specifically said”. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them. 3 Nor shall you make marriages with them.

The very next commandment given to the children of Israel is using the name of their God in vain!

 Exodus 20:7, “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.”

Warning to all who use the Name of this Jealous God in vain!

Humanity is blind and unaware of this real operation of darkness in their hearts; revealed to a soul reborn of Pentecost, immunity to this un-detectable snare is given to those who have accepted the free gift of redemption poured upon humanity on the day of Pentecost.

Humanity lost the true-power (Ingredient Faith) to discern the spirit of Darkness when Eve was snared by the enemy of our soul. This was the day we fell from grace to be mortal.

4000 years later, Humanity received this power back on the day of Pentecost. [B]

When we accept our Lord and Savior into our hearts, he begins to operate the nine spiritual powers given to humanity in our heart.

The New Testament Power!

Nine spiritual gifts; wisdom of creation, knowledge of the HOLY ONE, ingredient Faith that was lost in the garden, power to heal, power to perform miracles, power to prophesy, speak in tongues, interpretation of tongues, and finally to distinguish the spirit of the jealous God of Redemption from the gods of vanity.

Christians call the name of this God as “Jesus”, one name with the Father of Adam.

Making of the Grace Train [A]

Until the third century after Pentecost, followers of the way of Christ thrived, multiplied and worshipped the Jealous redeemer, boarding themselves in a Grace Train, built and manufactured in Minor Asia by the Faithful Apostles of Christ. [B]

At the age of 30; Jesus received the Baptism of his Father to initiate the promised redemption process promised for humanity, when our first parents fell from grace. [B]

Jesus called 12 Hebrew fishermen to be fishers of men. The “Bait” was the name of his Father!

Hebrews knew him as “I AM”, as dictated to Moses. The rest of humanity identified this I AM in symbols of Lamb of God who paid the final sacrifice of Human Blood for the atonement for the sin of all mankind.

So, the name of our redeeming jealous God was symbolized as a LAMB, Fish and majorly as the Cross.          

The Live power of the Bait is the Grace from the Cross. This is what Jesus accomplished through the death and resurrection of His life. This is the live Bait; Jesus gave this authority to His Apostles to be Fishers of men. This is the only revelation of our Redemption through the Cross in the Scripture.

This is the only Bait that drew all mankind to Him.

History repeats!

In the Old Testament; the nation of Israel was repeatedly snared by powers of darkness.

In the New Testament, the Faithful were snared by the enemy of our soul after all the Apostles were martyred for their faithfulness to the new way!

The enemy of our soul used the symbol of the cross to draw billions of humans to idolatry.

The true faithful church that began in the year 33AD by the Apostles of Christ, after the day of Pentecost.

The marriage of the Apostolic Church with the Roman Empire is the evidence of loss of the spiritual gift of discernment by the hierarchy of the Apostolic Church.

The most powerful Apostolic-Church was snared by the powers of darkness to marry the Roman state after the vision of the cross to the pagan Roman Emperor Constantine (whose mother was Helena a true faithful Christian) in the year 300 AD.

There were 9 Gifts of the Holy Spirit poured upon the Apostles on the Day of Pentecost; the last was the Discernment of the Spirit (Scripture 1 Corinthians 12).

This vision of the Cross in the sky, was not discerned by the Church of Rome before they married the Roman state. The name of God was used in vain!

The fall of the Roman Empire was the strategy of the Enemy to draw all men to darkness.

To make the long story short; The Roman Church including the Protestants who did not discern the spirit operating in their hearts.

The Grace Train that began in 33 AD. Have travelled the globe for 2000 years, approaching the last stop “eternity”. We are approaching the “Midnight” of the seventh day of LOGOS.  

We shall be in the “New Earth” promised by our Jealous Father!

The true faithful Church is hidden in Christ away from the eyes of the world.

This is crystal clear to anyone who is born of the Holy Spirit of Pentecost.  Scripture was sealed by the Apostles since 100AD. [B]

Grace operated throughout the human history through faithful servants, no single human had the power to discern until the day of Pentecost. [B]

After the death of Joshua, who brought them to the promised land, Lord God used Judges to lead his people, until a shepherd boy David was used to bring forth a physical kingdom, an empire on earth. This kingdom too, lasted only 80 years before the powers of darkness destroyed the temple, they built for their God to manifest on earth.

It was Jesus, the prophesized holy one of Israel, who finished the final work of accomplishing an indestructible temple on earth for mankind to live eternally with their Maker.

Otherland Galle Opens on Sri Lanka’s Southern Coast With a Locally Built Approach to Hospitality AI-generated illustration based on source material. No authentic photograph of the Otherland Galle property is embedded in this article. Otherland Hotels opened its first property, Otherland Galle, on 12 October 2026, introducing a 66-key lifestyle hotel that brings together accommodation, dining, music and locally curated experiences on Sri Lanka’s southern coast. The opening adds a new hospitality concept to a region known for its beaches, historic Galle Fort and established surf culture, with the hotel’s programme designed to encourage visitors to engage with the wider destination as well as the property. Located on Matara Road, Otherland Galle is approximately 400 metres from Dewata Beach and 2.8 kilometres from Galle Fort, the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The hotel draws on the area’s culinary traditions, creative communities and coastal way of life, positioning local experiences as a central part of its offer rather than an optional addition to a conventional hotel stay. Founded by Rishi Sreedharan, Samarth Gowda and Emanuel Siddhartha in partnership with Beryll Group, Otherland Hotels is built around the philosophy “Never the Same Twice”. Its approach combines private rooms and suites with shared accommodation and communal spaces intended for different kinds of travellers, from couples and groups of friends to solo visitors and culturally curious guests. The co-founders, pictured from left: Emanuel Siddhartha, Rishi Sreedharan and Samarth Gowda. Source photograph: Lanka Business News. A design-led mix of rooms and shared spaces Designed by Studio Camarada, led by Andre Camara, the hotel has been arranged as a series of interconnected spaces rather than a conventional sequence of corridors and separate facilities. Its interiors draw on the colours and materials of the southern coast, including sandy neutrals, ocean blues and earthy tones, alongside rattan, ash, hand-tufted textiles and marble finishes. The 66-key accommodation comprises 24 Ocean Rooms, 25 Terra Rooms, 12 suites and five dormitories. Room sizes range from 27 square metres to the 70-square-metre Patio Suite, while the property also includes rooms designed for guests with disabilities. The mix offers a range of accommodation formats within one property, including shared dormitory options alongside private rooms and suites. At ground level, Bar-kery combines several functions: reception, coffee shop, bakery, aperitivo counter and informal co-working space. Its Vinyl Corner invites guests to browse records and choose music, giving the communal area a more participatory character. Colombo Coffee Company has developed an exclusive signature blend for the hotel. AI-generated illustrative image based on the reported design approach; it is not a photograph of Otherland Galle. The rooftop venue Creatures brings together a restaurant, cocktail bar, infinity pool and music space, with 270-degree views of the Indian Ocean. It is intended to serve as a daytime dining and swimming venue as well as an evening social space, linking the hotel’s food and music programmes with its coastal setting. Sri Lankan flavours, music and a sense of place The food programme is led by Chef Rajeev Kumar and draws on Sri Lankan culinary traditions, alongside international influences and contemporary techniques. Dishes listed for the menu include King Coconut Ceviche, Yellowfin Tuna Tataki, Lankan Fish Cutlets and Devilled Pork Ribs glazed with kithul treacle. A Watalappam Brûlée brings a familiar Sri Lankan dessert into a contemporary format. Arijit Bose leads the cocktail programme, while Aneesha Thapa manages day-to-day operations. Music is another part of the hotel’s identity, with programming across Afro, R&B, folk, funk, jazz fusion, house, techno and electronica. The combination of food, music and shared spaces is intended to make the property relevant to both visitors and people from the surrounding area. Co-founder Samarth Gowda described the approach as one intended to make the hotel feel accessible and personal: > “Otherland Galle should feel like yours from the moment you walk in. Luxury has often come with a sense of distance, with places appearing impressive because they do not feel accessible to everyone. That is not what we are building. Everything here is designed around who you are and how you want to spend your time.” AI-generated illustration of ingredients associated with Sri Lankan culinary traditions; not a photograph of the hotel’s kitchen or menu. The Other Side: experiences created with local communities A key element of the concept is The Other Side, an experiences programme developed in collaboration with local surfers, fishermen, artisans, guides, chefs and musicians. The activities are designed to connect guests with people and places beyond the hotel, while drawing on knowledge and skills already present in the Galle region. The programme includes curry masterclasses, guided walks through Galle Fort and surf lessons at Dewata Beach. Further afield, guests can take whale-watching excursions off Mirissa or kayak through the mangroves of Koggala Lake. Rooftop sunset sessions, arrack tastings, beach cricket and tuk-tuk bar crawls are among the social activities described as part of the offer. This community-led model gives local participants a role in shaping and delivering visitor experiences, rather than presenting the area only as a backdrop for sightseeing. Its longer-term value will depend on how consistently these partnerships are sustained and how directly local contributors benefit from the activity they help create. Co-founder Rishi Sreedharan said: > “At Otherland, curiosity is the operating principle. We measure success by whether guests leave with a real sense of Galle. The surfers, fishermen, chefs and craftspeople who live here have helped build these experiences, and they are the ones bringing them to life.” AI-generated coastal illustration based on the article’s setting; it does not depict a verified view from the property. A new option for visitors to Galle The opening marks the first phase of Otherland Galle’s development. A gym, wellness centre and banquet facilities are planned for a subsequent phase. The property’s initial offer, however, is already structured around more than its room inventory: its communal areas, food and beverage venues, music programme and locally developed activities form a connected hospitality concept. For Sri Lankans abroad planning a visit home, the opening provides another option near Galle, with a programme that brings together coastal recreation, local food, heritage and community knowledge. For the Galle area, the approach places local contributors at the centre of the visitor experience. Whether the model makes a lasting contribution will be measured not only by the facilities it offers, but also by the strength and continuity of those relationships. The launch also reflects a wider interest among culturally curious travellers in experiences that extend beyond accommodation and conventional sightseeing. In Galle, where historic landmarks sit alongside a living coastal culture, the opportunity is to create hospitality that is carefully designed while remaining connected to the people and traditions that give the destination its character.
