THE PARABLE LIBERALS HATE

“For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. 2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, 4 And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way. 5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise. 6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? 7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive. 8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first. 9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. 10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny. 11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house, 12 Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day. 13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny? 14 Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee. 15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? 16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.” Matthew 20:1-16.

Dr. B. R. Lakin said, “If you want to be hated, have more, do more, and know more than the other fellow.” How true that is. It takes very little to bring to the surface the greed and envy in wicked hearts.

In the above parable the owner of the vineyard went out at different hours of the day to seek those who would work in his vineyard. He found and employed workers at different times, and agreed with each concerning their pay for that day. At days end, all received equal pay. So much for equal pay for equal work! No one was cheated or mistreated in this offer. Each agreed to what he would receive, and each received as agreed.

Do you know anyone where you work that fits this story? Do you know anyone in unions, or government who believe owners do not have a right to establish wages with employees? I bet you do.

Seniority does not count in the Kingdom. The King will give to every individual what is right. Sinners want equality. The righteous are thankful for His mercy.

PRESIDENT MOHAMMED MORSI AT PRAYER ON OCTOBER 19 AT EL-TANEIM MOSQUE IN MATROUH GOVERNORATE

November 4, 2012 by Ken Blue

 

 

 

 

 

 

Egypt’s President Mohammed Morsi participated in prayers over the weekend in which the preacher urged Allah to “destroy the Jews and their supporters.”

In footage of the service from Matrouh governorate’s el-Tenaim Mosque screened on Egyptian state television on Friday, Morsi was shown in fervent prayer as cleric Futouh Abd Al-Nabi Mansour, the local head of religious endowment, declared, “Oh Allah, absolve us of our sins, strengthen us, and grant us victory over the infidels. Oh Allah, destroy the Jews and their supporters. Oh Allah, disperse them, rend them asunder. Oh Allah, demonstrate Your might and greatness upon them. Show us Your omnipotence, oh Lord.”

According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Morsi could be seen mouthing “amen” to these sentiments.

The service was also attended by the region’s governor and local officials. The footage was recorded and transcribed by MEMRI (the Middle East Media Research Institute). A similar translation was published by the ADL.

The ADL’s National Director Abraham Foxman complained Sunday that “The drumbeat of anti-Semitism in the ‘new’ Egypt is growing louder and reverberating further under President Morsi and we are increasingly concerned about the continuing expressions of hatred for Jews and Israel in Egyptian society and President Morsi’s silence in the face of most of these public expressions of hate.” Added Foxman, “The United States and other governments with influence on the Egyptian leadership should publicly urge President Morsi to speak out against this disturbing manifestation of hatred toward Jews.”

Earlier this week, the ADL wrote to Morsi urging him to reject statements made by the supreme author­ity of the Mus­lim Broth­er­hood, Mohammed Badie, who called for vio­lence against Jews and Israel.

While Morsi was visiting Matrouh, demonstrators in Cairo’s Tahrir Square Friday held a peaceful protest demanding the president, a former leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, ensure the country’s constitution, currently being drafted, represent all factions of society.

Morsi has indicated he intends to maintain Egypt’s 1979 peace treaty with Israel, and his new ambassador to Israel presented his credentials to President Shimon Peres last week. The warm tone of the note Morsi sent to Peres in presenting his ambassador, though it accorded with normal diplomatic protocol, has caused a storm of controversy in Egypt. A Muslim Brotherhood leader initially claimed the letter was a “Zionist fabrication,” but Morsi’s office confirmed its authenticity.

BROTHERHOOD HEAD CALLS FOR ‘JIHAD’ TO LIBERATE J’LEM

Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Mohammed Badie called on Muslims worldwide to liberate Jerusalem by means of jihad, according to AFP.

In his weekly message to supporters, Badie reportedly asserted that “The jihad for the recovery of Jerusalem is a duty for all Muslims,” stressing that the city’s conquest “will not be done through negotiations or at the United Nations.”

Muslim Brotherhood vows not to recognize Israel
‘Israel’s creation worst catastrophe to hit world’
The Brotherhood’s Supreme Guide has in the past called on Arab forces to confront Israel and for the international community to pressure the “Zionist government to withdraw from the land of Palestine.”

In a written statement issued in May to commemorate the “Nakba,” a term meaning catastrophe used by Palestinians and other Arabs to describe Israel’s creation in 1948, Badie demanded that “The international community rectify the historic injustice [of Israel’s birth]” and claimed that Muslims had “begun the era of liberation of all peoples, first of all the Palestinian people, [suffering from] the worst occupation known to man – the Zionist occupation.”

Badie also previously vowed that if the Muslim Brotherhood ever rose to power in Egypt, it would work to sever relations with Israel. “We are certainly not happy with the illegitimate marriage between Cairo and Tel Aviv,” he said.

“Once we rise to power we will change many things in Egypt’s policy, starting with the country’s relations with Israel which have caused us great harm.”

IS THERE A HELL?

October 31, 2012 by Ken Blue

 

 

 

 

 

By Ken Blue

 

Is there a place called Hell?

If not, there ought to be.

You ask why I say so,

For sinners just like me.

 

She asked, “And how are you?”

“Better than I deserve.”

I could tell by her frown,

That I had hit a nerve.

 

She said,” you’re not that bad.”

Her smile was unreserved.

I smiled and said to her,

“You want what you deserve?”

 

“No sir,” was her reply.

She knew what was implied.

“No sir,” she said again,

“I’m not ready, if I died.”

 

Now, friend my question is,

Do your sins deserve hell?

The sick need The Physician,

Not those who think they’re well.

 

So, how am I doing?

Better than I deserve.

There is a place called hell.

For some, a place reserved.

HOW TO BE SAVED AND KNOW IT

October 29, 2012 by Ken Blue

I declare unto you the gospel

 

 

The word gospel does not mean: “truth.”  It means: “good news.”  There are several “gospels” in the Bible, but Dr. Blue shows from the Bible how not to be confused about which one applies to us today.  He shows us which one Paul declares and shows us where in the Bible you can find it.  This is the one that the 12 didn’t even understand (Luke 18:34).  It was the one that Paul proclaimed.

Full sermon can be heard here:

This world is going up in smoke.  There is no spiritual kingdom that will last.  God’s intent is to destroy this world.  But, no one needs be there to endure it.  Everyone can be saved if they accept the gospel that Paul preached.  This is the one that is for our age.  It is the one that Jesus died for and if you accept it, then He is faithful and true to keep His promises to you.

Jesus Christ took the death that we should endure.  But, He rose again from the dead to show us there can be victory over death.  Yes, we must die, but we can also be born again (Rom. 10:9).  The grave is not the end for those who accept Jesus Christ.  Dr. Blue shows how death is not a state, but an event.  It’s like walking from one room into another.

The gospel works if you receive it.  Dr. Blue has done an excellent job showing us in these sermons.  He has made it perfectly clear.  Don’t wait!  Do what you need to do to get the good news!
