" PITIFUL PERVERTS "
SAD WHEN THE SIN SICK PERVERTS MARCH DOWN MAIN STREET WITH THE SO CALLED GAY PRIDE PARADES. EVEN WORSE THAN THAT IS WHEN SIN SICK PEOPLE TRY TO PERVERT THE WORD OF GOD.
*THEY WISH TO PERVERT THE WORDS OF THE SCRIPTURE
THEY ARE REVISIONIST THEY LOVE TO REWRITE HISTORY. THEY LOVE TO REWRITE THE BIBLE. THE NIV, GOOD NEWS, LIVING BIBLE, ARE JUST A FEW OF THE PERVERSIONS THEY HAVE COME UP WITH. (PROVERBS 30:6) THEY CAN NOT REVISE THE WORD OF GOD IT IS FOR EVER SETTLED IN HEAVEN.
THEY ARE REJECTORS OF GOD (ROMANS 14:11) THEY REJECT THE FUNDAMENTALS OF TRUE FAITH. (LUKE 16) IN THE BOOK OF LUKE WE SEE A RICH MAN WHICH DIED WITH OUT JESUS. IF YOU READ THE TEXT CAREFULLY YOU WILL SEE EVEN IN HELL HE IS A BIBLE REJECTOR.
IN ALABAMA A COURT JUDGE IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE BECAUSE HE DEFIED A COURT ORDER AND A FORMER PRESIDENT REMAINED IN OFFICE AFTER HE DEFIED A COURT ORDER.
THEY ARE REBELLIOUS (ROMANS 1:28) (ROMANS 1:22) THEY ARE JUST LIKE THE MEN IN THE BOOK OF JUDGES, EVERY MAN DID WHAT WAS RIGHT IN HIS OWN EYES! WE ARE NOW REAPING WHAT WE HAVE SOWED IN THIS NATION.
*THEY WISH TO PERVERT THE WORK OF THE SPIRIT
THE SPIRIT OF GOD DOES NOT SHOW OFF BUT HE DOES SHOW UP. IF YOU LIFT OF JESUS! HE DOES NOT DRAW ATTENTION TO HIM SELF, BUT POINTS PEOPLE TO JESUS!
MANY WALK AROUND DRESSED IN WHITE BLOWING ON CROWDS AND USING NEW WAYS OF EXCITING PEOPLE INTO THINKING THEY HAVE A SPECIAL TOUCH. IF WE HAVE THAT SPECIAL TOUCH OF GOD WE WILL SEE SOULS SAVED AND NOT JUST SOME SPECIAL SENSATIONS.
THEY DECEIVE MEN (GALATIANS 6:7) (I JOHN 4:1) (II TIMOTHY 3:13)
THE DEVIL WISHES TO DECEIVE YOU. HIS GREATEST DECEPTION DOUBT. DOUBT THE WORD OF GOD, DOUBT THE WAY TO GOD (JESUS). DOUBT YOUR NEED OF SALVATION.
THEY DEFILE MINDS LOOK AT CHRISTIAN TV AND RADIO. HOW MUCH OF IT WOULD BE PLEASING TO THE LORD. WE HAVE TOTALLY CORRUPT TV/ TOTALLY CONFUSED TV NOT MUCH TOTAL CHRISTIAN TV.
THEY DRAW AWAY FROM MORALS (JAMES 1:14)
JUST LOOK AT HOW WE TALK, WALK AND ACT TODAY. IF YOU COULD GO BACK 50 YEARS AGO AND BRING SOME ONE TO THIS PRESENT TIME THEY WOULDN'T BELEIVE HOW FAR DOWN THE ROAD TO HELL THIS NATION HAS WENT!
* THEY WISH TO PERVERT THE WORSHIP OF THE SAVOUR
NEW METHODS (ROMANS 12:2)(II CORINTHIANS 6:17) IF THEY CAN NOT MEET A STANDARD THEY SIMPLY CHANGE THE STANDARD.
NEW MUSIC ROCK GOSPEL, RAP GOSPEL IS NOT GOSPEL MUSIC, THE GOSPEL WILL SEPARATE YOU FORM THIS WORLD. THEY WISH TO BRING THE WORLD INTO THE CHURCH AND MAKE THE CHURCH LIKE THE WORLD. WE ARE COMMANDED TO BE A SEPARATE PEOPLE.
LOOK HOW THEY COMPARE THOSE MODERN ROCK GOSPEL SINGERS, TO OTHER ROCK SINGERS ! DIFFINITELY NOT CHRIST LIKE OR CHRIST HONORING.
NEW MESSAGES MESSAGES THAT POINT PEOPLE TO NOTHING AND NO WHERE! PREACHING TODAY IS AIMED AT NOTHING, HITTING NOTHING. (I CORINTHIANS 1:18) (II TIMOTHY 4:2-4)
SOME WOULD SAY WE DO NOT SEE AS MANY SAVED TODAY AS WE DID YEARS AGO. I SAY WE NEED TO PREACH LIKE THEY DID YEARS AGO, WE NEED TO REACH OUT LIKE THEY DID YEARS AGO!!
THOSE WHO WOULD PERVERT THE WORD, THE WORK AND WORSHIP OF GOD ARE THE WORSE PERVERTS !
