"“They say to God, ‘Depart from us!
We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways."

Only Christ Can Save You
Our country will not be saved, no president or anyone will help us. The country has spiritual wickedness now that passes the tipping point. The only thing left is for people to trust in Christ before the rapture.
Ephesians 6:11-13 "…11Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world's darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore take up the full armor of God so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.…"
One cannot put on the armor if they do not have Jesus Christ living in them. Jesus Chris is the armor, He is our strength and our defender. He is the very essence of His Word the Bible.
Those who are not walking with Christ listening to His voice will be powerless and helpless against the wiles of the devil. Those who are like this will not hear the voice of God and will not have the strength to stand in the face of difficulties. They will even believe the lies and tricks of the devil believing they know the truth but they are deceived.
Mark 4:19
"but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful."
For those who walk with Christ, we have been rescued already.
Colossians 1:13
"He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son,"
Who do you want to be master over you? The devil who wants to destroy you or Christ Who has offered you great safety and goodness with the promise of an amazing eternity in perfection and beauty, most of all His great love.
Also keep in mind that you are mastered by someone, either the devil or Christ, no one is their own person completely controlling their own life. If Christ is not in charge of your life then the devil is for sure.
Jesus Christ loved us so much that He died for the world that whoever wants Him will be saved.
The devil hates Christ and us so much that he wants the worship of him as he and his followers will be thrown into hell to burn.
Why would anyone choose the devil over Christ? Makes no sense!

God Joins All Marriages
God joins all marriages, even for the unsaved. Unsaved people are dead in their trespasses and sins, that is anything against God's Law, His principles in His Word. The unsaved are held accountable for all their sins because they have not trusted Christ. Divorce and remarriage is as much a sin against God for the unsaved as it is for the saved.
Wicked people have been saying "don't judge" since the time of Lot.
Genesis 19:1-11
"Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening as Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them and bowed down with his face to the ground.
2 And he said, “Now behold, my lords, please turn aside into your servant’s house, and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way.” They said however, “No, but we shall spend the night in the square.”
3 Yet he urged them strongly, so they turned aside to him and entered his house; and he prepared a feast for them, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
4 Before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and old, all the people from every quarter;
5 and they called to Lot and said to him, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may have relations with them.”
6 But Lot went out to them at the doorway, and shut the door behind him,
7 and said, “Please, my brothers, do not act wickedly.
8 Now behold, I have two daughters who have not had relations with man; please let me bring them out to you, and do to them whatever you like; only do nothing to these men, inasmuch as they have come under the shelter of my roof.”
9 But they said, “Stand aside.” Furthermore, they said,
“THIS ONE CAME IN AS AN ALIEN, AND ALREADY IS ACTING LIKE A JUDGE; now we will treat you worse than them.”
So they pressed hard against Lot and came near to break the door.
10 But the men reached out their hands and brought Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.
11 They struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great so that they wearied themselves trying to find the doorway."
The wicked men of the city were so rebellious they continued to clamor for the door to get the visitors even after they were struck blind by God. This ought to tell us just how wicked and stubborn these men of Sodom were.
The wicked men of Sodom accused Lot of "judging them" for standing against evil. The same thing happens to Christians today. Those who judge are those who are standing against righteous judgment. They judge the righteous man of doing something wrong when they are only doing what God is calling them to do.
Whenever you stand against evil in our day and all down through history, you can see and expect the rebellious people to accuse you of judging while they are judging that you should not judge anything. They are hypocrites only attempting to intimidate those who love righteousness. Do not listen to the wicked when they come after you to stop discerning right from wrong. Ignore them they are to be disregarded for what they are, that is rebellious.
Think about it!!!!

America's Demise
I am convinced we will be seeing a dictator soon. But that's just me, I could be wrong. I don't care anymore who rules us, it will be who God chooses and maybe not what we want. People are stubborn and refuse to see their need for Christ, all they care about is the comfort of their country while they are on earth. They don't know our life here is very short, our real life is in eternity, forever! Its either heaven or hell, this life is just a time to make that choice.
I rejoice at testimonials of people coming to Christ, however most of them I hear about are in other countries. America has such a false view of what being born again is they are comfortable thinking they are safe. The people of the United States are proud and self-willed, resistant to the Word of the Bible even while quoting them they do not obey them. In fact, there is far more scripture being twisted to fit their life than they use to correct themselves or others.
Matthew 7:21-23 "21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
22 Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many [a]miracles?’
23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’"
James 4:14
"Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes."
Psalm 90:10-14
"The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty; yet their span is but toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away. Who considers the power of your anger, and your wrath according to the fear of you? So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. Return, O Lord! How long? Have pity on your servants! Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days."
Ephesians 5:15-17
"Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is."
My hope is that America will repent, but unless it happens soon we are going to be severely punished for rejecting Christ in all our institutions and venues.
If you feel you are not able to worship and pray at home then you have a wrong view of Christianity. Noah had no gathering to attend except his own family. Lot had the same problem. We are living in the days just like Noah and Lot in which there are few others who love and obey the Lord.
Matthew 24:27-39 "37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."
Noah preached 120 years and no one would listen, there was not one repentant convert in all those years.
Genesis 6 describes the days of Lot, read it to have a glimpse of what is happening now.
If you have been living a ritualistic, superficial Christianity based on rules and appearances, now is a good time to repent asking God to show you His heart and then begin reading His Word.
