I believe a Christian response is necessary because Sharpton claims to be a Reverend.<\/p>\n<p>The definition of reverend is, &#8220;worthy of reverence.&#8221; It is not a title to be applied loosely, and I refuse to have it applied to me. However, many professing Christians revere Sharpton because they believe his race-baiting and extortion of businesses and large corporations is accomplishing something worthwhile and necessary. However, Christ Jesus the Lord declared that we would know a tree (and a wolf in sheep\u2019s clothing) by its fruit. A good tree does not produce bad fruit and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.<\/p>\n<p>Al Sharpton is a bad tree, and a wolf in sheep\u2019s clothing, and every other biblical acronym that describes diabolical individuals posing as instruments of God. His fruit is bad because it cannot be otherwise in his \u201cunembarrassable\u201d condition. Fresh water cannot flow from a bitter fountain. Consider that one of the things the Lord hates is an individual that sows discord among the people. (Proverbs 6:19)<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, Al Sharpton is by his own words a reprobate. One who is \u201cunembarrassable\u201d is someone who has a seared conscience. Such an individual cannot be convicted by the Holy Spirit. He cannot feel empathy, sympathy, compassion, or any of the necessary emotions that emanates from godliness. If he could, then he would be \u201cembarrassable.\u201d Further, an \u201cunembarrassable\u201d person does not have the slightest impetus to abstain from sin or the fleshly lusts that war against the soul.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to what Sharpton and like-minded individuals believe, \u201cunembarrassable\u201d is not a position of strength, It is not a good quality. Instead it is the ramifications of long-term disregard of Holy Spirit conviction. Eventually one conscience becomes seared or callused. The individual will systematically reject morals and become a god unto themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Embarrassment is characteristic of a mind that is sensitive to the Holy Spirit. It is a necessary quality for godliness. It is the early warning signal that we have committed an improper deed, said something improper, or otherwise grieved the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n<p>God created everyone with the propensity to be embarrassed. In order to eliminate that trait, one has to reject every other component of godliness. Love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, must all be suppressed or completely rejected to become unembarrassable.<\/p>\n<p>Philippians 3:18-20 depicts a reprobated individual. One distinction mentioned describes that they are \u201cunembarrassable.\u201d They glory in their shame. In other words, they embrace what would normally shame a godly person. They are not embarrassed by ungodliness, but regard it as a quality to be admired.<\/p>\n<p>In 2 Timothy 3, the Apostle Paul describes the characteristics of a reprobated individual. They are; \u201clovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power.\u201d It sounds like a character assessment of an \u201cunembarrassable\u201d person.<\/p>\n<p>No true Christian should support the \u201cunembarrassable\u201d Al Sharpton. Anyone who supports him or gains benefit from his activity is a partaker of his sin. Further, supporters are susceptible to sharing the spirit that possesses Sharpton.<\/p>\n<p>It was inevitable that we would enter a final period, that millions of professing Christians would be lured by diabolical people into an intense world-wide fog of deception. Following individuals such as the \u201cunembarrassable\u201d Al Sharpton will guarantee one a place in the great and final deception.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Upon being questioned about his viagra prescription being found in the home of an accused rapist, Al Sharpton declared, &#8220;I am \u2018unembarrassable\u2019.\u201d I have not read or heard anyone&#8217;s response to that statement.
