Repent of your sins, get washed in the blood and THEN it will be for you. 1 Corinthians 2:14 But THE NATURAL MAN RECEIVETH NOT the things of the Spirit of God: for THEY ARE FOOLISHNESS unto him: NEITHER CAN HE KNOW THEM, because they are spiritually discerned.] Dear Christian Friends: Greetings in the name of the ONLY wise God and Saviour Jesus Christ. A sister asked a question of me on the message board and I cannot seem to find the post. It may have been deleted when there were technical problems. Could you please resend your question? Thanks. *****PREFACE***** I don't care about current events. I know everything about these days that I need to know--THE DAYS ARE EVIL. I also know what I gotta do about it--REDEEM THE TIME by spreading the gospel message. The night cometh when no man can work. Ephesians 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. Many newsmongers are like the Athenians described in Acts-- Acts 17:21 (For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.) I have heard professed Christians say that there is nothing wrong with being a sodomite. Where did they get that idea from? Not the Bible--they got it from the world. Places like public school and hellivision. Hellivision and hellywood introduce folks to sodomites. Oh, they laugh and cry right along with the sodomites. I remember when I saw Kiss of the Spiderwoman (I don't remember if I was unregenerate or an ignorant Christian). Two unregenerate men were in prison. One was a sodomite who wove fantastic tales in his corrupt mind. The sodomite ended up being like a wife to the other man. Notice ENDED UP. The screenwriters know how to seduce you and introduce you to a new concept by starting out with something familiar and unthreatening. They slowly take you through a process to get you where THEY want you to be. They don't cast abhorrence on you too quick. Those screenwriters didn't even know me personally, but they didn't have to. I used to belong to their kingdom so they know what I like. What appeals to me--interesting story line, an unfamiliar place (jail), tight dialogue, suspense, the unknown (sodomy), etc. The devil definitely knows me and he knows what I like. As my pastor says, the devil remembers that I used to serve him well. Back to hellivision. I've seen two PBS documentaries on sodomites--in one a sodomite got aids. A Christian took him off the street, cleaned him up and married him off to someone. At the end of the show the sodomite said he wished he was back on the street--know how they say it's in their genes? PBS helps to promote that nonsense. On another PBS special it showed some sodomites who got Foster Parents of the Year out in the mid-west somewhere. They showed the more effeminate sodomite preparing meals and the "family" sitting down together. It was softening ***MY*** heart and even though I was watching hellivision back then I was no softie (effeminate professed Christian). The Lord immediately snapped me out of my daze and let me see how easy it is to get sucked in by propaganda. They call that stuff documentaries and news, but it is pure propaganda. They decide what you will hear and HOW you will hear it. You don't see no documentaries entitled, "Sodomites have shorter lifespans that the general population" or "Sodomites are Twenty-four Times More Likely to Commit Suicide". See what I mean? Hellivision is brainwashing people. Meanwhile professed Christians are being sucked in. They've forgotten about the standard which is the word of God. All of a sudden abortion is a woman's choice and sodomites are not sinners. *****Sodomite Shame Month***** Today I received an email that contains the following words, For Immediate Release June 2, 2000 GAY AND LESBIAN PRIDE MONTH, 2000 - - - - - - - BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA A PROCLAMATION You can read the text at http://www.whitehouse.gov/WH/New/html/20000602.html if you want to. Dear friend, the devil is legislating evil. We have to make up our minds that we will not go along with it, even it means resisting to the blood striving against sin. About two years ago, I received this email and posted it on the website-- " I am requesting your prayers for a confrontation against sin going on in Ypsilanti, Michigan. More than a year ago, a homosexual student organization, Tri Pride, went to a print shop to get some raffle tickets printed for one of their events . The print shop owners...are Bible believing Christians and they politely declined to do the job. TriPride then sued the Hansens on the grounds of discrimination. Subsequently, the Ypsilanti City Council moved to include a "non-discrimination" ordinance which would include "sexual preference" with other categories of protected classes (race, sex, etc.)... "The City Council appointed a group of nine people into a Human Relations Committee which held a series of public forums. These meetings were heated but non-violent meetings which concluded with the Human Relations Committee voting AGAINST a homosexual rights ordinance by a vote of 5 to 4. Despite their recommendations, the City Council voted unanimously to pass the ordinance anyway. The members of the City Council are obviously very sympathetic to the homosexuals and in fact, two of them are homosexuals! "...Given the moral and spiritual climate of our country the odds are definitely against Christians. Yet regardless of the outcome we have to be salt and light to our community and stand firmly for Christ and the Bible. The Lord Jesus wants us stand against evil and sin albeit in a lawful, responsible and God honoring way. I grieve for our nation but I praise the Lord for his sovereign power and wisdom. In the end His holy and righteous justice will prevail! To Him be all honor and glory!!" _______ I concluded with this commentary: "Glory to God! You know what? Even if the sodomites win, they've still lost! we Christians KNOW how this battle ends, glory to God and hallelujah" The last I heard the sodomites did win the battle. That is NO surpise and is not even the issue, the issue is that we stand for righteousness and spread the gospel--at all costs. We must be willing to lose our lives for the gospel and that is not just death. That includes jobs. I know a social worker that refused to place foster children with sodomite couples. She was permitted to stay on, but there are some managers out there that would have said, "Then you got to go!" This email is NOT really about the sodomites. We already know that sodomy is wrong because the Bible says so. That is not in question. This email is about US, Christians. What are WE doing and how will WE respond to increasing persecution. A sister called me one day and began to complain about the state of our youth. I responded along these lines, "We have the answer, what do you want to do about it?" I find that many concepts that I learned in secular business translate well into kingdom business. I was taught that if an employee comes to you with A PROBLEM, ask them for a proposed SOLUTION to that problem. This will get the problems solved and exhort others to step up to the plate as solution-providers. Jesus said the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. Jesus has left us here to work, not to look at the harvest and say, "Look at all those pitiful sinners wallowing in ignorance and darkness". Instead, we should say, "Lord what would you have me to do in this portion of your vineyard? I ain't much but I'll do what you tell me to do." The night cometh when no man can work. Let us rend ourselves from this world and press into the kingdom. We must proclaim the gospel message while we still have time. The night cometh. Concerning sin, 1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. 6:13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; 6:14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and ONLY Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 6:16 Who ONLY hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. for Jesus' sake, tracy -- http://www.jesus-is-lord.com ...I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD. And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
