Professing themselves to be wise. They became fools. And changed the glory of the Un-corruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man and to birds and to four legged beasts and to creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to there uncleanness through there lusts of there hearts. To dishonor their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more then the creator. Who is blessed forever, Amen For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman. Burned in their lust one toward another: Men with Men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error which was meet. And even as they did not retain God in there knowledge. God gave them over to reprobate mind. To do those things which are not convenient: Being filled with unrighteousness, Fornication, Wickedness, Covetousness, Maliciousness: Full of Envy, Murder, Debate, Deceit, Malignity, Whisperers, Backbiters, Haters of God, Despiteful, Proud, Boasters, Inventors of Evil Things, Disobedient to Parents. Without understanding, Covenant breakers, Without Natural Affection Implacable, Unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God that they which commit such things are worthy of Death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

And Thinkest thou this O Man, that Judge them which do such things, and doest the same, That thou shall escape the judgment of God??

Or despisest thou the riches of HIS Goodness and Forbearance and Longsuffering: Not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth you to repentance??

But after the hardness and impenitent heart: Building up wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous Judgment of GOD: Who will render to every man according to his deeds. To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life.

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the Truth, but obey Unrighteousness. Indignation and Wrath!!

Romans 1: 22-32 , 2: 3-8

If you live the way you want, ignoring God then you will have God Promise that on the Day of Judgment God's wrath will be poured out upon you!

Don't let that happen He does not want to give you wrath. He wants to give you eternal life!!

Repent and turn from sin today and put you faith in Jesus Christ!!

And He will have mercy upon you, Forgive your sins and give you the key to heaven and eternal life!

First I want to thank God and give him all the Glory for giving me the inspiration and the ability to speak the truth to anyone that will listen. For Gods word will never return void. I would like to mention a story and I will not mention any name of the people I am referring to out of respect.

 I was speaking with a pastor of a church and I was talking about the things of God with him and I found something that disturbed me when I asked him how he personally witnessed to others, He at first avoided the question. So I then asked some probing question to try and get an answer out of him, I asked him does he use the law when witnessing and responded I really don’t do witnessing but if I do speak to someone I would rather show them the love of Christ first because they already know that they are sinners. I was confused as to why a pastor that had been to a major school of theology and spent his life in churches, (for his parents were pastors as well) would make such a statement when the bible clearly states the preaching of the Cross is foolish to those who are perishing. Why would he say this? I then asked how he reaches out to sinners and he said that he invites them to church and because that deep down inside they know that they are sinners and might want to seek God and come.

Now I would say on occasion (very rare) that a sinner might actually go to a church, but when they do get there the knowledge of there sin and what was done to fix the problem is not touched upon and if it is, it is done very briefly and with as much sodality as possible not to offend anyone I then tried to explain further why this way of thinking was not the best way to go I used this analogy which I had heard from a well known evangelist 

 “You are a prison warden and you know that there are many criminals around your town. So, as an effort to try and catch them you carpet the floors and put in very pretty stainless steel bars and plush wall paper. You might even advertise that all are welcome. Tonight a very famous local band will be performing free of charge. Still after all of the effort to make the jail seem more appealing very few criminals will actually visit the jail. If you want to catch the criminals you will have to leave the comfortable setting of the jail and go catch them.”

 Same when reaching the lost we can’t just casually invite them to church and leave it at that. Then on Sunday hope that everyone we invited comes to service. I tried doing things this way when I first became a Christian, thinking I was really doing all I could to reach someone for Christ. You know what I noticed 1, yes 1 person I invited came to church and it was really for the Easter play the church was having and he said it was touching and that was it. He went right back to living the life he has always lived and is now selling witchcraft item on the internet to make money. I asked him if he thought that it was right what he was selling. And he said I guess you think it might be wrong, but I really need the money. So I was upset, I so wanted him to understand about why Jesus died. What the play he saw really meant on an eternal scale, but he did not think it was that important, if he did he would not have trivialized the sacrifice that Jesus did for us.

 This is what I am saying, is that most sin loving sinners will not go to church even if there invited and the when you do get one to go. If the church does not preach the severity of sin and what sin is he will not even realize that he is a sinner and therefore not see an overwhelming need for God to forgive them. You see the bible says that there are none that seek after God so one must be taught about God entirely in truth or there not going to see a need to go to God for cleansing.

After I spoke to him about this I was very disturbed that a pastor of a church I was very familiar with did not understand that the vast majority of sinners do not even know that they are sinners. And if they do not know that they are sick then they won’t go to the doctor to be cured and for days it baffled me why he believed that everyone automatically should know that they need God. Then I remembered in the conversation we had that I had mentioned that for 34 and a half years I knew of God, because I to was raised in a pastors home, but because of circumstances that had happened in our family I decided to make my own decisions’ and went my own way. During that time I did things I was not proud of but basically, like the bible states. I thought I was basically a good person.(psalms) I was in the world and I loved the world and I never really gave God much thought. During the later part of my life at, I would say 33, 34 or so I began hearing more about God and he began to pursue me more diligently. He sought after me through other people, people that he had called. I never really sought after him (like the word says there is none that seeks after him) then finally in Oct 30 2005 I was convinced I had a death sentence placed on me because of my sin and I repented and trusted in Jesus as my Savior at that very moment I was changed I had the peace that is beyond all understanding come over me. I knew at that moment I no longer feared death because I had assurance of what is to come not a belief. BUT, I KNEW THAT I WAS SAVED.

Well I remembered telling him that when I was a sinner I did not give church a thought or even really know that I was a sinner I though for the most part I was a good person I had made some mistakes but for the most part I was ok and it was not until I knew that I had offended God with the life that I was living that I was sorrowful for my rebellion against God and at that moment I was converted and he has continues to open my eyes ever since. I then realized after I had left him(the Pastor in who I was speaking to) that God in his infinite wisdom has well laid plans and even though I was a lost un-repented sinner he still showed his mercy upon me and when I surrendered to his call upon my life I had the experience of this world unlike the pastor that I had been speaking with, he was sheltered all his life from the ways of the sinful world. He grew up in a Christian home went to his parents church went to Christian schools and then to Christian college and from there went into full time pasturing in a church. So what sinners he did come across I would be safe to say that they for the most part knew they were not right with God but was just willingly living in rebellion the knew they were sinners therefore the preaching of the cross was not foolish because they knew they were breaking the laws of God, But the world in general does not know that they are sinners and are offending God with there life style and since he really has never seen that side I can now understand why he would think that sinners would know that they are sinners, but in reality that don’t. That is why we need to go out into the by-ways and to the uttermost part of the world to give the Gospel the entire Gospel not just the last half, but the entire thing. To sinners so they know why God commands all to repent they need to know what they are repenting from. But how do we tell them what sin is, how do we know what sin is so that we can tell them. Well Paul said it so clearly, I would not have known sin but by the law. For it is by the law we have the knowledge of sin. And it is by this law that we will see the need for a substitute for our own sin debt which is death. Most people know of the Ten Commandments, but few know what they are or what they are truly for. Some think it has to do with the way we should live but if that’s true why did Paul say the law brought death to him.

No,no,no, the law is to show us our sin in its true unbending light. In psalms it is written that “The law of the Lord is PERFECT CONVERTING THE SOUL” and it also says in the New Testament the law was a schoolmaster to bring us to Christ. So lets look at a few for a moment and see how we do:

The 9th Commandment say “thou shalt not bare false witness” have you ever told a lie half truth a fib, If you say yes then what are you? You would be a liar.

How about the 8th Commandment “thou shalt not steal” have you ever taken anything that did not belong to you no mater how small or it’s value, have you ever called into work and collected a sick days pay and you were not sick that is a combo you lied about being sick and stole a days pay because of that lie. Have you ever used Gods name in vain.

The 3rd Commandment any time you speak Gods name and your not talking about him or to him you are using his name in vain, most people are aware of the cuss word G.D. but did you know that just saying “oh my G-D” is also in vain. Well God call this use of his name Blasphemy. God said he would not hold one guiltless who takes his name in vain. That every man will give an account of every word he has said on the Day of Judgment. How are we doing so far??

Lets look at the one that made me crumble:

The 7th Commandment “thou shalt not commit adultery” have you ever had an affair, what about an affair with someone else’s spouse or have sex outside of marriage then you have committed adultery .

 What, you say you have not done those things well. Let’s look what Jesus said he said: “you have heard it said by them of old you shall not commit adultery, but I say to you look upon a woman to lust after her, you have committed adultery already within the heart”. In other words if you have had the desire it is the same as doing the deed as far as God is concern and why is that, Because he requires truth on the inward parts. He know every thought word and deed, every secrete sin we have done in darkness will be brought to light on the Day of Judgment.

So how are we doing??

If you have said yes to these thing as, I have, God sees you as well as me a Lying, thieving blaspheming adulterer at heart and those are only 4 of the 10 Commandments there is still 6 more with there guns pointed at you. On judgment day, Just for the ones I mentioned He will find you guilty. But you say that everybody makes mistakes that’s true everybody does But look at what the bible says If you were to keep the entire law and just broke it at one point then you are guilty of all, If you were hanging over a cliff by a 10 link chain and if just 1 link broke, no mater which broke then you would perish the same with the law. God requires perfection that is why we are all in trouble, Because no one is perfect. So what can we do if we are all damned!

Well God does not desire anyone to perish so what he did was something unheard of, something so great that it could only be God who could do it. He sent his Son, Jesus, Born of a virgin to give his life so that we would be saved. We broke the laws and there had to be payment for those broken laws. But because of our sins we can only pay for those sins with our very soul. BUT Jesus was sinless and because he was sinless he was the only one that could pay the sin debt in full, which he did the day he was crucified. To put it plainly: WE BROKE GODS LAWS AND JESUS PAID THE FINE SO WE COULD BE SET FREE FROM THE DEBT THAT WE OWE! Now I am going to tell you how you can take part in that forgiveness First you must repent(tell God you are sorry that you have violated his laws and sinned against himand turn from sin not desireing to sin any longer) and then cling to Jesus accepting his sacrifice as you debt paid in full. So on the day of Judgment your case will be dismissed because you fine has already been paid. Once you do this God will change your heart and give you new desires that are toward God and grant you eternal life. Thank you for listening and please just consider what I have said for all eternity is at stake.

Thank you.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through Him might be saved.

He that believeth on the Him is not condemned: But he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

What an awesome God I serve even though we have rebelled against Him and broken His laws He still desires for us to be made right.

He said that those who trust not in the Son of God is condemned already. That sounds harsh, but God being completely just and holy must punish sin wherever it is found.

The scripture says that we all are like sheep that has gone a stray. That there is none righteous no not one. That we all have sinned and come SHORT of the glory of god and that all of our righteous deeds are as filthy rags in his sight. He has condemned the world already for its disobedience. The soul that sins it will die the proof of our sins will be our death.

But God which is rich in mercy did not want to give us justice, but He was morally bound to punish sin because He is good and just and holy, so what He did was unheard of, He sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, for it was condemned already, but to do what was needed to bring us to a right standing with God. He came here to take Gods punishment for our sins, He came here to have Gods judgment placed on him for our sakes so we would not have to stand before him condemned, Now tell me that is not love. would you give your own Son to die for strangers? Most would never even think of such a thing

In yet while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. So if you have ever broken Gods laws like lying, stealing Coveting, or even Lust. These sins can be forgiven. Not because of what you did or can do, but because of  what Christ did on our behalf. He took the punishment from God that really should have been placed on us. So how to you claim Gods forgiveness, that His Son Jesus took for us. Its easy,

Repent of your sins that means to confess and turn from your sin not wanting to sin any longer then trust in Jesus alone for the payment for the sin already in your life.

Once you do that God Promised He would forgive your sins and grant you eternal life so do it today. Repent and trust in Jesus Christ. Then read your bible everyday and obey what you read. God will never let you down.

God Bless

Going to Heaven?

Ask yourself this? Have you ever lied, stolen, looked with lust. If so God sees you as a lying, Thieving, Adulterer at heart and will have to give you justice. The Bible says you can’t make up for your own sins.

You Need A Savior

BANG!!!!!!......

In the Beginning There was nothing, Nota, Zip, Zilch, and from this nothingness this great explosion happened then…………

 Then What?

 Then we had Birds, cats, dogs, flowers, trees, butterflies, and the marvels of the human body

Wait a minute, that don’t sound right. I think I would be insulting your intelligence with that explanation.

Ok hold on, Millions of years ago this explosion happened and from this explosion there was this brown liquid that formed on this rock and over millions of years the liquid hardened into a rectangular shape, Then over a few million more years this paper wrapper formed and wrapped itself around this brown rectangular object then millions or years later this ink formed on it and the letters C-A-N-D-Y formed on the wrapper this is how a candy bar evolved???????????

Wait, Wait, Wait!!

I must think your gullible, every one knows when you look at a candy bar there had to be a maker. So your logic should conclude that when you look at creation there had to be a creator.

 And if there was a creator (God), then that means that we are morally responsible for our action. But how do we know what God requires of us. Well there was a man named Moses that God had called to Mount Sinai and on this mountain God gave him 2 very special tablets most people know them to be called the Ten Commandments and they are the laws that God gave us to know what is right and what is wrong. For Paul said: I would have not known sin, But by the Law! But God went a step further he took that same Law and wrote it upon our hearts, it is called the conscience. So lets go through a few of these commandments and see if our conscience will let us know whether we have broken Gods laws

*  The 9th Thou shalt not bare false witness (this means to lie) Have you ever told a lie?

*  The 8th Thou shalt not steal Have you stolen anything regardless of the value? 

*  The 3rd Ever used Gods name in vain (if you are not talking about Him or to Him)?

*   The 7th Thou shalt not commit adultery. But look what Jesus said If you look at a woman to lust after her you have committed adultery already in your heart. Have you ever lusted after anyone?

 If you have answered yes to these commandments then God sees you as a Lying, Thieving, Blasphemer & an Adulterer at heart and the Bible says that on Judgment day you would be guilty of breaking his laws. The Bible says that all liars would have there part in the lake of fire. So if you are guilty of just that one, the Bible says you will go to Hell for Eternity!

 That is not Gods will. He made a way for you to be forgiven. He sent his Son Jesus, born of a virgin, perfect sinless man, to this earth to pay for your sins.  He was beaten and crucified, put to death for you. So that you would not have to go to Hell and pay your own debt for breaking Gods law! Then 3 days later He rose from the Grave so that we would have Eternal Life!

 But how do you claim this free Gift God has given you?.. What you must do is confess and not only confess but turn from your sin (not having a desire to sin anymore) and then you must trust in Jesus Christ as your savior, the one that paid your debt in full. Not just believe in him but trust him like you would trust in a parachute when jumping from a plane. When you do that the Bibles says He will change you into a new creation and you will have a desire to please Him and He will grant you eternal life!  So repent today (make Psalms 51 your personal prayer) and trust in Jesus alone for your salvation. Then read your bible everyday and obey what you read. (Start with the book of John). God will never let you down!

So what do you think happens after someone dies?

Is it reincarnation, a higher level of consciousness, just a bunch of bright lights, will they go to heaven or maybe go to hell?

If its heaven who gets to go and why?

And if it's hell who will go and why?

Chime in with your answer and why you believe it.

I am in the process of writing a new blog and would like the general public’s views on death and why they believe what they believe. Thank you

Death

What a way to explain it!

A sick man was preparing to leave the doctors office when he stopped and ask the doctor a question He said “Doctor being sick as I am and knowing I do not have much time left. I am afraid of dying. Could you let me know what is on the other side?”

The Doctor thought for a moment and said “I really don’t know”

The sick man then said “You Don’t Know!!”

You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?”

The Doctor then walked over to the door in the back of the office and knocked then put his hand on the door knob.

Then the sick man heard something on the other side whimpering and scratching the door.

After a couple of seconds the doctor opened the door and a dog leaped on him in complete joy licking his face and wagging his tail.

The doctor then looked at the sick man and said “Did you notice the reaction of my dog when I opened the door? He has never been in this room before. I have always kept this door closed.

He did not know what was inside. He only knew that when he heard the knock he knew his master was in here.

And when I opened the door he leaped in without fear.

“I know very little of what is on the other side of death,

But I do know one thing when I heard my master knock I knew he was there and that is enough.

Want to know that your master awaits you on the other side, then listen for his knock.

His knock is his calling you to repentance

The knock is the conviction of breaking Gods laws and wanting him to forgive you

Have you lied, stolen, used Gods name in vain or looked with lust?

If you said yes to even one of these then you have a right to fear death because on the other side is judgment and punishment for breaking those laws which the bible call hell!

But if you heard the knock of you conscience, then respond to it by repenting. That means to ask God to forgive you for breaking his laws and turning from those sinful ways not wanting to sin any longer. Then you must trust in the one who took the punishment for your sin, the one who paid the fines for breaking his laws. And that person is:

 Jesus Christ.

Born of a virgin, complete sinless man, that was beaten and crucified for your sins once you place your trust in him you will become a new creation. He will forgive your sin and grant you eternal life

So Give this some thought and just consider your eternal salvation there is nothing more important

God Bless
