WHY GOD SAYS THE ATHEIST IS A FOOL

by

 

 

 

 

Psalm 14:1-3 “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.”

One reason some choose atheism is to deaden the sting of a corrupt nature. If we can convince ourselves that there is no God, then we think we will never have to give an account for our wickedness. However, it is not only the Atheist who has a corrupt nature; all of us do. The difference is; some acknowledge it, and ask God for forgiveness and help. The nature your nurture is the one that will dominate.

God also accuses the atheist of a lack of understanding. Atheists cannot be accused of lacking knowledge or education. Many have a high IQ, and are well educated. However, as someone said, “The bigger the belfry, the more room for the bats.” Observation and understand can be worlds apart.

 The atheist rejects the revelation of creation. Psalm 19:1-3. “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.” As I understand this verse, the atheist will have to say, “I was just too dumb to see it.”

 The atheist also rejects the revelation of conscience. Every atheist believes there is a moral law of right and wrong. Notice how Paul describes it. Romans 2:14-15. “For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;).” God will use their on argument against them.

 The atheist also rejects the revelation of Scripture. Any person can know beyond any doubt that the Scriptures are an accurate revelation of God, if he wishes. We give one challenge to the atheist on this matter. John 7:17. “If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.”

Finally, the atheist rejects the law of congruity. When you find the key that fits the lock, you have the right one. The only key that answers the question about creation, conscience, Scripture, where we came from, why we are here, and where we are going, is the acknowledgment of a wise, and an all-powerful God. Otherwise, we must continue to swim in a cosmic swamp of soup until science can pull us out. The key that fits is an understanding that there is a God.

PHONY FAITH HEALERS WHO HAVE NO AUTHORITY OR POWER

“But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.” Galatians 6:4.  “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:21.

 Phony faith healers make merchandise of God’s people. There’s much talk on television, and the internet about the power and authority to heal. We posted a blog last October with a list of ten questions for those who claim that anyone can have the power or authority to heal others. To date, we have not received one response to our challenge, nor do we expect one.

 Jesus gave this authority and power to His disciples as a sign as they went forth preaching the gospel of the kingdom of heaven to the Jews. We do not preach the gospel of the kingdom of heaven today, nor are we sent to the Jews, nor do we have apostolic authority. We are not appointed byJesuswith special apostolic power or authority.

 Here are the ten questions for those who think they have power or authority to heal.

 1. Do you believe the miracle working power Jesus and the disciples had is present today?

2. Do you know anyone with those powers?

3. Do you know anyone who was dead three days or more and was raised from the dead?

4. Do you know of any mentally retarded person who was healed by the gift of healing?

5. Do you know anyone blind from birth, and a faith healer restored their sight?

6. Do you know anyone who could not walk for 40 years, and was restored by a faith healer?

7. Do you know a miracle worker who walks on water?

8. Do you know a miracle worker who feed thousands with a little boy’s lunch?

9. Do you know anyone with ALS that was healed by a faith healer?

10. Do you know anyone who had Alzheimers that was healed by a faith healer?

 If you have positive answers to the above, please send us their name and address so we may contact them. Until then, we will conclude that you are a charlatan like all others who claim power and authority to heal.

 The above ten questions should be enough to get us started. Now, before you answer; yes I believe the entire Bible. Because I know how to rightly divide it, I don’t believe in Faith Healers or any of their claims today. However, proof is sufficient. Kingdom miracles fazed our as that gospel was rejected, and the new gospel of grace was introduced byPaul.

OBAMA SIDES WITH SODOMY; THE SICKEST SIN ON EARTH

OBAMA EMBRACES SODOMY

Sodomy

By Ken Blue

On May 9, 2012 my president announced to the world that he supported sodomy. I agree with Franklin Graham’s response when he said, “he has shaken his fist at God…it is a sad day for America.” We don’t expect most Americans to understand the magnitude, or the far reaching effect this decision will have on the destruction of America.

The Bible is clear in both Testaments that those who practice this sin are “given up to a reprobate mind.” We will put the full text so the interested can see it:

Romans 1:19-32. “Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.  For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:  Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.  Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,  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.  Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:  Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. 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 that recompence of their error which was meet.  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;  Being filled with all 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, covenantbreakers, 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.”

[pullquote align=”right” cite=”” link=”” color=”” class=”” size=””]Obama has just taken sides against the Bible and a Holy God.[/pullquote]

The original Oxford English Dictionary defines sodomy as “a sin against nature.” If sodomy is not a sin, and it is not against nature, will people be marrying their animals next? What could be wrong with it, especially if you have a “reprobate mind”?

Now, I do not hate Sodomites, but I hate their sin (sodomy), and God is on my side on this matter. No, I don’t hate them; I pity them. Anyone who can look at one’s own body and that of the opposite sex, and cannot figure out why God made them the way He did; according to the Bible, has a reprobate mind.

My President has just taken sides against the Bible and a Holy God. Thankfully, we still have freedom of speech and of the press. There are those who are working diligently to take those freedoms away. Until then, we will publically stand for freedom and righteousness. Those who defend sodomy ought to be ashamed, but some people are incapable of shame.

(Some words used for sodomy, fag, queer, homosexual, dog, gay)

FEAR THAT FETTERS

by

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By Ken Blue

1 John 4:1 “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.”

 There is a fear that is commendable, and without it, we are in step with today’s society. We read, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” Prov. 9:10. So, the fear of the LORD produces right living.  

However, there is a fear that is rooted in pride. This is the fear of losing the approval of men. Proverbs 29:25 “The fear of man bringeth a snare…”  This fear was evident in the days of our Lord. Men feared to confess Him lest they be put out of the Synagogue. They secretly feared those who held the perceived power. Little has changed today. I know pastors who are petrified at the thought of disapproval by those whose persons they hold in admiration. I am confident that there are many who fear man more than they fear God. It is pride that feeds this fear.

Then there is the fear of facing the unknown. All of us have our comfort zone, and the longer we are in it, the more secure we feel. However, there can be no growth in your church without change, and change always causes fear. If your church grows it will force change, or stagnation. It is this fear of the unknown that has most pastors paralyzed. You must overcome this fear.

The fear mentioned above fetters us to the present. Sunday after Sunday, and year after year it is the same rut. Someone accurately said, “A rut is just a grave with both ends kicked out.” We are fettered to the past because of our security with things just as they are. We fear change because the powers that be may not approve.  Break the fear of man, and cast of the fetters of the past and let your church reach souls and grow.

 

 

LET’S STUDY REVELATION # 22

by

Revelation

The events covered in the book of Revelation are spoken of throughout Scripture. They are described in Joel 1:15 “Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.” See also, “Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;… And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.” (Joel 2:1, 11, 31).  “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.” (Joel 3:14).

             That time is called, “Jacob’s Trouble” (see Jer. 30:7). And in the Book of Daniel it is called the “seventieth week” (see Daniel 9:27). During that final “week,” the fourth beast in Daniel’s vision; the ten kings come to power. The Lord Jesus said it would be a time of trouble like the world has never seen (see Matt. 24:21). Therefore, these four horses represent the progression of sorrows that leads to the full-blown wrath of Satan upon the earth, which is primarily in the land of Israel, and directed toward the Jews.

In Matthew 24, Jesus’ disciples ask Him about the future signs of His return and the end of that age. His first warning was the need for vigilance against deception, “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.  For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:4-5).

The condition in Israel today is ripe for false messiahs’. The Orthodox Jews find themselves abandoned by their own secular nation as more and more of their promised land is given away to their enemies. They are being imprisoned daily by their own government for refusal to accept these conditions. They pray and speak passionately of the coming of the Messiah. Not since A. D.70 have circumstances been so perfect for false messiahs’ to present themselves in Israel. These false Christs’ will make war on the true saints of God. No doubt, Matthew24:5 describes the opening of the first seal.

Events leading up to the Day of the Lord were impossible for the past 2000 years. Israel must be in the land prior to the fulfillment of Matthew 24. Verses 6-7 describe devastation brought on by war and by “natural” causes. Israel has experienced continuous war since becoming a nation over fifty years ago. War will continue until Christ returns. Only a blind man could fail to see the increased destruction around the world caused by earthquakes and violent weather. One must not confuse today’s events with what Jesus prophesied. These are only a precursor and illustrate with what ease these riders will accomplish their purpose.    Jesus says, “All these are the beginning of sorrows” (Matthew 24:8).

The increased pressure on Israel compels them to give away land for peace, and will force them to accept protection from a coalition of nations within the area of the old Roman Empire. The union of ten kings, spoken of in prophecy, will probably consist of a union of Moslem, Jewish and Roman Catholic nations. These ten are symbolized in Daniel by the ten toes (Daniel2:40-45), and ten horns (Daniel 7:7-8, 19-24), and the ten horns in Revelation 12:3; Revelation 13:1; Revelation 17:9-17. “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast” (Revelation 17:12).

In the beginning, these ten kings form a loose alliance. Their government will be a forced democracy (this is probably the outcome of white horse and his rider). The ten horns or kings constitute the seventh head on the beast. There will be infighting within and between radical religious groups within their kingdom. This will force a tighter cohesion between them. It is from within this alliance that a man, called “the little horn,” will arise to take control of that kingdom. Since the union of those ten nations does not exist today, that man cannot rise to power.

These ten kings, with the “little horn” ruling over them, (constitutes the eighth kingdom “And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.” Revelation 17:11) will be unable to provide protection for Israel from the radical element within their kingdom. Daniel 7:8 says, “I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.” He will go forth, conquering in the name of peace. Out of one of these nations comes, “…a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, (Egypt)… toward the east,(Jordan)  and toward the pleasant land (Israel)” (Daniel 8:9). This “little horn” rises to power, and it appears that Israel makes a covenant with the Antichrist and the remaining seven nations within his kingdom. “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate” (Daniel 9:27).

Rather than being Israel’s messiah, he becomes “that man of sin” and would destroy all Jews if Jesus Christ delayed His coming.  “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;” (2 Thessalonians 2:3). The first seal introduces steps which lead to his rise to power.
