So the rulers and influencers of the world system want to eliminate Christianity.  They want to force us to accept homosexuality and other anti-Christian beliefs and practices.  Further, they want removed from society every vestige of Christianity: nativity scenes, the Ten Commandments, etc.  By forcing their agenda on Christians, they hope to convince the majority of Christians that it is not worth bothering to defend their profession of faith.  Ultimately, they wish to divide the faithful from the nominal.  Then they can easily and without any repercussion deal harshly with the ones who refuse to join the forced apostasy.

My response is, if they want this world so badly, then go ahead and take it.  If they want the sorry mess they have made of the culture and society, they can have everything from the whorehouse to the White House.  This world is not my home.  I won’t need or want it after they are finished with it anyway.  I’m going to a better place, a city whose builder and maker is God.  That city will never have a corrupt ruler, never have an act of evil committed in its boundaries, and there will never be a tear shed, or a person die who is a citizen thereof.

So, I say to the corrupt politicians, the financial pimps and money mongers, homosexuals, vile judges, and other parasites and barnacles, go on and take it—every last bit of the sorry mess you have made.  You can have your rat-infested, sin-laden, roach hotel and keep it as long as you can until the end of time.

But there is one problem I feel the need to warn you about.  When you put the finishing touches on your godless society, God will show up to give His opinion of your work.  This is His planet that He spoke into creation.  He did not give mankind an eternal lease on it.  Instead, He gave us permission to occupy it until He arrived to take back full control.

Your problem is that God is a consuming fire.  He is coming in flaming fire.  He is going to purge the earth and everything in it with fire so intense that the elements will melt.  Only whatever survives the fire will remain.  Further, everyone who practiced rebellion against Him will be cast into the lake of fire with the devil and his angels.  That’s the problem.

Just as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego many years ago were impervious to the fire because God was with them, so God’s people will not be harmed by the fire because God is in them.  Thus, the only way to escape this coming judgement is to become a citizen of God’s kingdom.  That is accomplished by believing in your heart that Christ Jesus is Lord and Savior, that God raised Him from the dead, and confessing those beliefs verbally.  If you are sincere, the Holy Spirit will come to dwell in and possess you and begin the process of transforming you by renewing your mind.

Of course, that means that you will then be a Christian as I am.  You will view the world as hostile to your faith and put yourself at risk of persecution.  However, you will also realize that no matter what you suffer here for being a Christian, it is not worthy to compare to what you will inherit when you arrive in God’s eternal kingdom.

It’s time to make a choice.  Either serve the god of this world, or God Almighty.  You cannot do both.  The time is short.  Things are rapidly coming to a conclusion.  Make up your mind before you run out of an opportunity to choose.  Come Lord Jesus!

A lot of professing Christians are upset by the Supreme Court ruling.  I wonder how long that will last.  Usually, the initial outrage, such as it is, lasts only a few days.  Then everyone goes back to the same routine as if nothing is wrong.  The people who want to change this nation into a godless nation where hedonism is the norm are well aware of that paradigm.  Thus, there are no consequences for their actions.  They will simply endure a few days of bluster and then move on to the next step in the degradation.

Let me tell you what’s going to happen—not because I’m a prophet, but because I’ve seen it before repeatedly.  There will be a number of leading Christians, denominational leaders, pastors, and of course the ever ready “talking heads” from the Christian psychological community, who will come out openly in favor of gay marriage.  “The ship has already left the harbor,” they will glibly proclaim.  Then they will set plans in motion, already concocted, to reach out to the gay community.

This is a defining moment in Christianity.  We will now see who is real, and who has been faking their calling and commitment to God.  The courage of the redeemed will be sharply contrasted by the compromise of the damned.

Something else will occur that will strike a harsh blow to religious freedom.  A number of Christians on social media will be censored.  They will lose their Facebook Accounts, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etcetera.  Free speech was only secure when we elected people who cherished that freedom.  We now have people in control that despise our freedom.  They will soon be coming for our liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Last, we are going to experience an unprecedented oppression on Churches and ministers.  Texas just passed the “Pastor Protection Act.”  The SCOTUS decision shoots that down.  The 1^st lawsuit filed against it will be successful.  Christians will be forced to take a stand or compromise to keep their jobs, maintain their present standard of living, and to avoid lawsuits and heavy penalties forced on their businesses and churches.

The saddest thing about the SCOTUS decision is that there were not enough true Christians in this nation to hold back the darkness.  Here are the stats, read them and weep:

42% of Protestants, 50% Roman Catholics, 69% Jewish, 21% Mormon, voted for Obama.  Also, 95% Black Protestants, and 75%Hispanic Catholics voted for him.  When half of professing Christians, who were fully aware of the disaster of his first term, still voted for Obama, it was clear that this nation would not survive the diabolical onslaught of wickedness that was sure to follow.

So why is everyone surprised?  Why are people lamenting and moaning the woes that have arrived and the woes certain to follow?  We live in the end times of Sodom and Gomorrah, are witnessing unchecked spiritual wickedness in high places, i.e., denominational leadership, and there is no weeping between the “porch and the altar.”

Are we not well into the final great deception and apostasy?  And yet, intercessory prayer is faintly heard in heaven.  From the pulpits there is mainly silence.  Further, professing Christians, including ministers, are attacking everyone who dares to present truth against the deluge of heresy.  Instead of coming to their defense, other professing Christians ignorantly post quotes on their Facebook pages by the very heretics that are destroying Christianity. What a display of ignorance, and what a shame!

Now we see the fruit of compromise, and we moan.  But we do not groan in prayer for our sins, spiritual anemia, and the sins of our nation.

The line has been drawn in the sand.  A significant percentage of the populace intends to return to Sodom.  However, their leaders are not content with regaining Sodom lost.  They are intent on committing every sin for which God harshly judged Israel and the nations about them.

We American Christians are a haughty lot.  We think that we will not face judgement.  However, the 50% who facilitated this great evil by their votes will face judgement.  So also will those who gave it unopposed access by failure to do anything whatsoever to repel the darkness.

“For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.” – Romans 11:21-22

People had better get prepared.  Check your spiritual pulse this coming week.  If you are no longer outraged, you’re acquiescent.  Is there any difference between acquiescent and agreed?  How long will it take some professing Christians to be agreed?  I say by Monday—a mere three days—“protest” will have disappeared from Protestant.  That leaves “ant.”  Spiritual ants…busy; 6 decades of making small mounds, moving about scraps, and now easily subdued by a shoe.  Good job, all ye that sleep in Zion!

Someone once told me, “God doesn’t need anyone to defend Him.”  My reply was, “Then why does He send prophets?”

The truth is that God does not need anyone to defend Him, but it is His will that we promote and defend truth, which necessitates exposing error and heresy.  However, many professing Christians have been conditioned to believe that when heresy or misrepresentation of God’s word is put forth, they should remain silent.  This is because truth is considered a contentious trouble-maker in the world of information.  That is true in the religious and secular realms.  Thus, one who insists on truth having “the same right to be heard as error” is perceived as a bully.  In the secular realm, he or she could be accused of hate speech.  It doesn’t help that in nearly every case of a clash between truth and heresy, at the end of the exchange the proponent of heresy plays the victim.

Rather than be considered mean-spirited and unChrist-like, most professing Christians are allowing heresy and other error unopposed access to Christianity.  Heretics can now spout their falsehoods, New Age mixture, Freudian concepts, humanist philosophy, and other error, without much more than the rattling of chains from the people who know better. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult to defend and promote truth in this nation today.

The encroachment by the secular culture aside, a steady stream of rancid heresy flows unabated into Christianity.  Relatively few Christians oppose this diabolical flow.  They have been intimidated into remaining silent.  They believe they must walk on eggshells to even mildly challenge error.  Anything they say in opposition to heresy becomes a bone of contention.  In most cases, they shut their mouths, back down, apologize, and otherwise grovel to keep peace.  They stand by silently while those refusing to compromise endure derision and reprimand.

Here is a short list of don’ts:

1. Don’t denounce homosexuality as a sin.
2. Don’t say a popular televangelist or telepastor is a heretic.
3. Don’t tell anyone that they are wrong for any reason.
4. Don’t denounce any heresy (especially if it has been published as a book or a devotional bible).

There is an unwritten “Bill of Rights” for the deceived and heretics, with truth as its main enemy.  Heretics or deceived people promoting a heresy insist no one has the right to challenge them.  They insist, “I have the right to believe what I wish.”  That’s true.  They may certainly believe it, but do not have the right to promote it.  The moment they do, every true Christian has the right and duty to challenge it.  Truth absolutely has just as much right to be heard as error.

The question is, are true Christians going to submit to this chicanery and allow heresy to enter and spread unchallenged?  Have we now reached the point where we care more about what people think about us than about defending God’s truth?  Are we so fearful of being accused and perceived as mean-spirited individuals that we timidly protest the assault on truth, coddle the heretic, magnanimously give the heresy a pass, and with quavering obsequiousness offer a “possibly, maybe, if you please, respectfully differ, may I suggest, no offense intended,” presentation of diluted, weak, pusillanimous, and blurred truth?

My detractors, professing Christians who actually claim to love truth, would insist that one must use diplomacy when defending truth or opposing heresy.  What they actually mean is, it is wrong (even very wrong) to offend a deceived individual or a heretic.  Really?  Are not the presentation and insistence of heresy an offense to a true Christian?  Introduction of heresy is in fact an attack on Christianity and Christians in particular.  It is also an attack on God and the Savior and Lord Jesus Christ whom we profess to love with all our hearts.

The fact is, we can’t avoid offending someone if we present truth clearly and completely.  Clearly presenting truth is to challenge the heresy, heretic, and deceived individual.

The presentation of truth necessitates the exposition of error; it involves delineating the components of the heresy clearly.  Since heresy involves the behavior of people, the person will fall under the same spotlight of truth as the heresy.  This is and always has been the issue.  How does one expose heresy without offending people?  It is near impossible.  If you are going to expose heresy, you are going to offend, anger, and eventually they will play the victim.  You may as well be prepared for that to occur.  If you are unwilling to face the consequences of defending truth, you will allow heresy unopposed access and range.
