Seek God Rather Than Man

Read Your Bible and Pray!

Every born again believer has Christ in them, therefore they have everything they need in Christ to know truth. He is the Law Giver, He is Wisdom.

1 John 2:26-28 "…26 I have written these things to you about those who are trying to deceive you. 27 And as for you, the anointing you received from Him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But just as His true and genuine anointing teaches you about all things, so remain in Him as you have been taught. 28 And now, little children, remain in Him, so that when He appears, we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming.…"

America's Days Are Numbered

America

Isaiah 59:3-4
"Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,
And with Sheol we have made a pact.
The overwhelming scourge will not reach us when it passes by,
For we have made falsehood our refuge and we have concealed ourselves with deception.”

The Right Leader Can't Help Us!

Romans 13:1 "1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God."

We cannot blame anyone who does not vote, it is possible God told them not to. The nation is wicked, no attempt to get a "righteous" leader will change the hearts of the people. I vote, but I have no hope that God is going to bless the hearts of a nation that kills it's babies at the rate of 4,000 a day.

Even if we managed to get a godly man in the white house, it would not change the hearts of the people of this nation. We are teetering on the brink of total chaos, because the hearts of the people as a whole, are selfish, entitled, arrogant, self righteous and down right rebellious. All of that cannot be changed by a new leader.

God must avenge the murder of 4,000 babies, whose blood cries out from the land. He must spank those adult children who are disrespectful toward parents and authorities. He must discipline those who refuse to listen to truth in terms of Biblical marriage.

We are not going to escape discipline and even wrath of God by getting a better president. Even those who are running or those who have run in the past two decades, have not been godly, they were no different from the stubborn will of the people.

Now that the people have defied God on every level, God will defy their will and will punish us as a nation.

Never mind who votes and who doesn't, never mind who wins or who doesn't. We are under discipline through the consequences of broken families, arrogant adult children and even more so the dishonor of grandchildren.

We are so blind as a people that we don't think anything is wrong. The dishonor and disrespect is seen as normal and acceptable. Babies out of wedlock have been accepted as a ordinary course of events these days. And yet it is an abomination to God.

The description of the evil that is acceptable in this nation is legion! It would take many pages to describe the attitudes and actions of most of the people in this country today.

Stop trusting in a political system to save us, there is no safety any more. The political system has been hijacked by evil men because we are an evil people. It is only Christ Who saves our souls and keeps them until He comes for us.

America, a Nation in Deep Distress

Isaiah 59:1-2
"Behold, the Lord's hand is not so short that it cannot save; nor is His ear so dull that it cannot hear.
But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not hear."

This passage should frighten the United States of America. It is referring to Israel but the principles of how God reacts to a wicked nation who mocks and demeans Him by deliberately rejecting His principles can be applied to any nation.

Turning Aside To Myths

It is difficult now to find a decent true Bible believing church. Even those that claim they are Bible believing are not obeying most of the Word.

2 Timothy 4:2-4 "…2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction. 3 For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. 4 So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.…"



Repentance Leads to Behavioral Change

A change of mind, "repentance" always results in a change of behavior. There is never an occurrence of repentance where there is no change in behavior. We do not do it perfectly because Christ in us continues to cleanse us all of our lives, but there should be a dramatic change over a short period of time.

When we become born again we hate sin immediately, then begin to struggle with it.

Unbelievers don't struggle with their sin, they defend it and lean into it.
