SCRIPTURE – John 16:12-13                                                                                                                                                          APRIL, 2018
I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

SUBJECT – THE TRUTH IS, WHAT IT IS!!!! [2]

PLAY/DOWNLOAD [MP3]

When I left off last month, I was addressing the single most problem that we have in this nation, and especially in the black community, and that is preachers that are so focused on things like power, influence, popularity, and prosperity, that they, in effect, have sold out themselves, and those that listen to them, to the new religion of the 'new gods!!'

The 'new gods' are, psychologists, psychiatrists, sociologists, scientists, and all others that hold to the idea of mankind being able to solve his own problems, without having to look to some make believe entity, that doesn't meet their criteria of being real.

In short, if they can't physically see, touch, hear, dissect, probe His brain to see how He works, then, He is to be ignored.

What they are seeking to do is what Lucifer attempted to do that got him cast out of Heaven.

Isa 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I WILL BE LIKE THE MOST HIGH.

In this case, they want to be like God, having control over the people.

But, because that can't happen, they go to the other extreme and that is to portray God, as being just like us.

Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

By doing this, they take away the idea that God is who He is, and that is our Creator, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Holy, Righteous, and able to do everything, but fail, and paint Him as someone that makes mistakes, and learns from them, and thus changes His mind when enough people complain about His rules.

One of the biggest influences on our society, occurred back in 1971, when the program 'All in the Family' was aired.

This show, was the beginning of what was, and is described as the era of the sitcom [situation comedy.] It's purpose was to take human behaviour, and mold it in such a way as to eliminate differences, and anything that would cause conflict in society, by pointing out how absolutely idiotic, solutions and rules from the Christian perspective really are.

Rather than doing it in a harsh, 'in your face' argumentative, strong abrasive manner, they resorted to showing all sorts of examples as to just how stupid, those things that Christ/God says are right and wrong, really are, by using the character, Archie Bunker, a white, supposedly misguided imbecile, who consistently misquotes the bible, or the interpretation of certain scripture, to support his idea of how things should be.

His wife Edith, essentially has to jump and run every time he tells her to do something.

His daughter Gloria, and son-in-law 'meathead', as Archie calls him, are always bringing up situations that show how ignorant Archie really is, whether it has to do with his treatment of Edith, his position on race, women, crime, gay's, and ultimately God.

This program, was the design of the 'new gods!' Their purpose was to set themselves up as the supreme authority as to what society should act and look like.

When God says something should go one way, these individuals, examine it, and if they see any thing that they disagree with, they take it, embellish it, and make it as repugnant and idiotic as they can, and feed it to the people, in the form of something that is pleasant to everyone, comedy.

The acceptable term for this type of comedy is 'situational ethics!!'

From this show, and the others that followed it, some 47 years later, this nation is going to hell in a hand-basket, because what many didn't know, was that they, and their children were being systematically indoctrinated in to the religion of the Antichrist!!

Remember, Lucifer/Satan, wanted to be equal to God, or even be above Him, and the only way to do that is to make Him, less than he, Lucifer, is.

Well, since he couldn't do that, he did the next best thing, and that is make it appear that He was.

Just about every commandment and statute God put forth, Satan challenged with what appeared to be complete logic. Remember the 3 tests he confronted Christ with?? He challenged Christ to show-off His power. He challenged Him to essentially attempt to test God, by getting Him to attempt suicide. Then he offered him all the riches of this earth, if He would bow down to him

In each of these instances, Jesus put forth the Word of Truth, and he had to retreat from Him, for a season.

This brings us to the real reason for our problems in this nation today, and that is, the vast majority of preachers in this nation, have no problem compromising with Satan, on any issue, that they feel will help their ministries grow, and that will endear them to their communities.

But, Satan doesn't present himself as he really is, he uses his servants, the 'new gods', with that same type of faulty logic that Satan used against Christ, in the wilderness. And the problem is, they don't have an answer for it.

Well, I am going to address some of them in the rest of this message. And, I am going to use what should be common Christian sense to do it.

First, the theory of evolution!! The first thing you need to realize is, this is a 'theory', not a fact.

As a result, any actions taken by mankind, as a direct result of people taking this as a fact, means those actions will essentially lead to confusion, and possibly destruction.

This theory, is a flat out lie, to combat the Truth that God is Real.

The lie is, all life on this earth, started out as a single cell organism, that over millions of years, evolved in to all the different creatures, past, and present that we see today.

Well, let's look at this from the the very simplest view. How did this single organism, come to life in the first place??

The next thing is, considering all of the different creatures, including man, and how they reproduce, how did each of these different species know what to do, in order to reproduce???

Like it or not, all of this evidence shows some sort of intelligent design. Ge 1:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

From the beginning, God designed all of what has happened. Nothing is by accident, in this area of reproduction.

As I mentioned in part 1, when man comes up with a theory, he sets out to find evidence to support it. And, I also said that anything that goes against it, is rejected.

Then he takes this theory, and presents it as a fact.

The fact of the matter is, the more people with notable positions,or credentials in the community that accept this theory, the easier it is to get others to accept it.

When that happens, a chain of events occurs that help perpetuate it.

As man digs in to making this theory more legitimate, with what appears to be evidence supporting it, man's recognition of God, begins to diminish. And despite God's attempts to show him the error of his ways, man begins to move further away from Him, and thus ceases to hear Him.

At some point in time, God will do several things.

First He will make one final, all out demonstration of Truth, that, will be so undeniable that, if man still will not accept it, then, like it or not, God will cease actively making an effort to bring him back.

Hos 4:17 Ephraim is joined to idols: LET HIM ALONE.

Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, WHO HOLD THE TRUTH IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS;

Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO A REPROBATE MIND, to do those things which are not convenient;

What these scriptures reveal is, because man has chosen to accept as truth/fact, something that goes against what God says, he has made that theory his idol. Thus, he has entered in to idolatry.

The first commandment God gave to Israel stated that they were not to have any other gods, before Him.

Exo 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

Exo 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

When man chose to remove the idea that God created all things, and substituted the theory of evolution as being fact, he violated the primary directive of God, and set in motion, the chaos that we have today.

People say, they still believe God is real, but, what about all the evidence that is around us that seems to support some aspects of the idea of evolution, such as dinosaur fossils, and other things like that, which give us the idea that these things are proof of some sort of evolutionary processes?

If you will look at Rom. 1:28 above, you will see the capitalized part that says 'God gave them over to a reprobate mind.' This means a mind that is totally without any redeemable worth. And, a mind in this condition, is as bad as it gets, because it not only rejects God, but actually wages war against Him.

Getting back to all the so-called evidence of evolution, there is a passage of scripture that I believe not many people know is in the bible. This scripture gives me reason to suspect what a lot of this evidence really is.

2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

What this scripture is saying, is that man can become so tangled up in his idolatry, that, not only will God turn Him over to a reprobate mind, but will also supply him with the evidence [strong delusion] he is looking for to keep believing it for the express purpose of damning him.

I know this doesn't sound like the God/Christ that is preached in most of our churches today, but, that's the way it is.

The emphasis in these churches today is on getting as many people in them, as possible.

Well the only way to do that, they believe, is to find out what the people want to hear, and then provide it.

The thing is, a person that is suffering, wants to hear about healing. What very few of them want to hear is why they are suffering.

Man is consistently looking for solutions to problems that come directly from his sinful ways, rather than turning away from them. In other words, they want God's Blessings, but not His Lordship over their lives. And God's not having it!!

There is not a single parent, that is in their right mind, that would continually reward their child for bad behavior. Yet, these same people think God would do that for them.

This is one of the problems I have with many 'Word of Faith' preachers.

They are always telling people that their blessing, and deliverance is at hand, and all they have to do, is believe, and receive it. But, they don't say anything about the need to get right with God, first.

BIG MISTAKE!!! Because, when you give people the idea that they can essentially receive blessing from God, while at the same time continuing in their wicked ways, you are making Him look like a fool. And who wants to do that?? More next month.
