Times
Are A-Changing
But
God isn't - neither is the Book!

My post-election sermon
November 3, 2004
Yes, President Bush was re-elected - He won!
He says, "We are entering a season of hope!"
However, America will continue to fall as the hope that President
Bush offers is not the true Hope!
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the
commandment of God our Saviour,
and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
I Timothy 1:1
In hope of eternal life, which God, that
cannot lie, promised before the world began;
Titus 1:2
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious
appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Titus 2:13
-
I was not for Kerry but we must know that Bush is more liberal than the
democrats - read his record so far - there is much more to come, I am sure!
I just enjoyed watching the newscasters and women reporters squirm through
this election!
-
Bush is still setting us up with the UN!
-
Clinton is getting ready to seek the UN leadership!
The Handwriting is on the wall!!
-
Read it!
-
Be aware of the truth of it!
-
Be not ignorant of Satan's devices towards world government!
BUT DON'T FEAR THE FUTURE! -
It's going to happen the way God said it would - not because He will make
it such, but because He already knows about it and has just written it
down for us - so has John! (Revelation!). We may as well read
about it, eh! It's there for us to read - IF - we rightly divide
it, that is! II Timothy 2:15,16
America WAS a great country!
-
the greatest to ever exist - even over the historical dynasties, etc. because
this is the only country that has ever been designed according to the Word
of God!
TODAY
-
The strong man has been taken down and out!
-
Strength has been given over to the women and minorities! Daniel
11:23 And after the league made with him
he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong
with a small people. Daniel 11:37
Neither shall he regard the God of his
fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify
himself above all.
-
Peace is always in the news - and flatteries... Daniel
11:21 And in his estate shall
stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom:
but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.
-
Kids are in serious rebellion (more than long hair and smoking, etc. -
some serious demonic stuff! - their minds are going! Music is their
bridge to the god of this world!
-
Blindness - spiritually AND mentally is deeper than ever - the light has
been taken away without folks even knowing it!
-
Children are the last targets - and the parents are even giving them over
to the world! Psalm 106:37-39
Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their
daughters unto devils, And shed innocent blood, even the blood of
their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols
of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. Thus were they defiled
with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
-
Mothers have given themselves over to an unnatural
love!
-
Fathers don't even know how to father let alone have
the energy to do so - most don't even have the desire to even try to learn
about being a Biblical father!
-
Final authority in America is money!
-
Animals get more respect and rights than to humans!
-
Schools teach perversions and anti-God materials!
-
Boys are becoming girls and girls are becoming boys
- thus Jeremiah is applicable today: Jeremiah
50:37 A sword is upon their horses,
and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the
midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures;
and they shall be robbed.
People can't and won't endure sound doctrine!
period!!! It is just too obvious now! II
Timothy 4:3
Apostasy is rampant in the "local churches"
and Christianity!
-
modern church descriptions are amazing to read
-
attendance IS increasing, but... (they see gain as
godliness - I
Timothy 6:5,6 Perverse disputings
of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain
is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. But godliness with contentment
is great gain.
-
Churches are boasting of themselves in order to 'change
people's lives - Ephesians 2:8,9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it
is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
But souls are not being changed - they are all imitations only!
-
Churches are true representatives of Revelation
3:14-18; Because thou sayest, I am rich,
and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that
thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
I Timothy 6:10 -
they truly are erring from the faith, the people continue to pierce themselves
through with many sorrows!
-
there is more and more a famine of hearing God's
words! Amos 8:11-13
-
people claim to 'hear God's voice" but ignore &
reject God's very words!
-
Lives ARE being changed, but souls are NOT!
-
Christ longs for fellowship from His bride to be!
(Revelation 3:20)
-
Children are now the targets in the churches!
It is still the Hour of Temptation, but Proverbs
1:24-32 continues to draw closer and closer,
but...
-
we can still strive to have personal victories -
family victories
-
we can still strive to grow
-
we can still strive to preach and teach the Book!
-
we can still strive to have a better walk!
-
we can still strive to show God our love towards
Him!
-
we can still strive to do our kids right!
-
we can still strive to more abundantly love others...
-
and yet, we can still be loved even less!
-
and... we can still be called the enemy more and
more...
-
and... we can still suffer even more persecution!
And now, IN THE CHURCH - the Bible Believing Baptist
churches even...
There is more lack of Concern about this
Book!
There is more Corruption with this Book!
There is more Conspiracy against the Book!
There is more Confusion about the Book!
Folks understand less and
less about this Book - the KJB1611
Folks understand less and
less preaching from this Book!
Folks understand less and
less "magnifying' this Book is magnifying the Word of God!
Folks understand less and
less preaching from a magnified Book!
Yes, the world continues
to change
Yes, America continues to
change
Yes, the bibles continue
to change
Yes, the local church continues
to change
Hath a nation changed their gods, which
are yet no gods?
but my people have changed their glory
for that which doth not profit.
Jeremiah 2:11
Yes, the image of an uncorruptible God
continues to be changed into an image made like to corruptible man, and
to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
Yes, the truth of God continues to be
changed into a lie
Yes, more and more people continue to worship
the creature more than the Creator
Yes, more and more women are changing
the natural used into that which is against nature - and likewise also
the men, leaving the natural use of the women... burn 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 (AIDS - GRIDS).
Yes, more and more people continue to have pleasure
in doing those things that are worthy of death and defy the judgment of
God!
But Paul's final message continues
for us today:
Preach the word; be instant in season, out
of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after
their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching
ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be
turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do
the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
II Timothy 6:2-5
The Greater Commission, not the
Great Commission!
We Must Not
Forget...
For I am the LORD, I change
not...
Malachi 3:6a
God hasn't changed - and won't change!
He just has made it all possible for us to be
changed to His Way...
...when saved; while we grow; when we are raptured
and finally once and for all eternity!
At Salvation
II Corinthians 3:18
But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord,
are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit
of the Lord.
II Corinthians 2:9-16
II Corinthians 5:21 Therefore
if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away;
behold, all things are become new.
Rapture
I Corinthians 15:51,52
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all
be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last
trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed.
Finally
Philippians 3:20,21
For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour,
the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may
be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby
he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
I John 3:1,2
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should
be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because
it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet
appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall
be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
But let us not "park in the
past" or 'fantasize about the future"...
What about our changes we can
make today?
We ought to change MORE than just our 'lives'
- our 'daily living,' etc.
And we really ought to change more than our souls!
Our walk should change - Galatians
2:20,21
Our judgment should change - Philippians
1:9; I Corinthians 2:15; Luke 7:43; 12:57
Our faith should change - II
Thessalonians 1:3a; Romans 10:17
Our food should change - I
Peter 2:2; Luke 4:4
Our boldness should change -
Our charity towards the brethren should
change - I Thessalonians 1:3b
Our 'grace' should change - II
Peter 3:18a
Our knowledge of Jesus Christ should
change - II Peter 3:18b
Our closeness with Jesus Christ should
change - Ephesians 4:15
Our joy should change - John
15:11; 17:13
As did America, the local church may be going
apostasy, but the body of Christ can continue to grow - Ephesians
5:27 That he might present
it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such
thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Change your god from gold and silver and music
to the living God through the real Jesus Christ, not some imitation!
Change your bible to the KJB!
Change your soul to a saved & spiritually
circumcised one!
Change your church to a Bible Believing Bible
preaching Rightly Dividing Greater Commission church!
And God will change you for eternity!
