The
Devotional
Comment:
Like it or not, our nation is
falling into the abyss and many false teachers are applying changes to
doctrines that will carry their congregations and students down that dark path
to destruction. Now you may say in your heart, “O bosh, Jesse that’s absurd!”
Many years have gone by but I remember talking to a first grade girl. I said, “How
are you little girl?” Her reply was; “I have a name it is Judy, don’t call me a
girl!” I said, “why do you say such a thing, you are a girl!” She said, “My
teacher told us we should be called by name, not by gender!” The girl whose
name I changed is in her twenties now, she too is a teacher with the same
mindset. A genderless society; Elwood McQuaid a writer for Israel My Glory
writes in the September/October 2015 Issue – these words “Central to the “New
World Order” fantasy is the bizarre notion that people are no longer born male
or female and that everyone has the right to determine his or her own gender.
That the stranger-than-fiction phenomenon is lauded as courageous and
respectable.” Matthew 7:13-14 is loud and clear as it is becoming more and more
difficult for folks in our day to find the narrow way.
Challenge: Romans 16:17-27
The LORD God who Created the
Heavens and the Earth has not changed His Plan, note the following words of
Isaiah 46:8-11 – "Remember this, and show
yourselves men; Recall to mind, O you transgressors. Remember the former things
of old, For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like
Me, Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things that
are not yet done, Saying, 'My counsel shall stand, And I will do all My
pleasure,' Calling a bird of prey from the east, The man who executes My counsel,
from a far country. Indeed I have spoken it; I will also bring it to pass. I
have purposed it; I will also do it.
Deception comes from people, it does not come from academic
exercises or from the crushing advances of the so called modern trends that
break into ideologies of new agers and politically correct postures, all such
thinking can be crushed. Deception come from people, those who are divisive,
deceptive and natural brute beasts (demonic) see Jude 1:10 – 15. The problem as
I see it is that the Universal church has been listening to and believing the
flattering speech of false promises and plans of the wicked. So how do we seek
God in the True Church of Jesus Christ and turn this around. Obedience to God
is the start, and the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly,
the grace of the LORD Jesus/Messiah be with you. Amen.
A wall of sin blocks the view of our Eternal God and our lack
of righteousness causes us to reject all sound judgment and reasoning,
therefore there will be a judgment on all who do not call upon the LORD Jesus
for salvation. Flesh and blood (the natural man) cannot on its own understand
this. Yet God has provided this understanding through the Holy Spirit who
declares the following; Jesus speaking “and when He (Holy Spirit) comes, He
will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. Of sin,
because they do not believe in Me (Jesus/Messiah); of righteousness, because I go
to my Father (Creator God) and am no longer seen. And because of judgment, the
ruler of this world is judged – John 16:5-15.
Folks the truth of God in Jesus Christ is not hard to
understand – believing in Christ is easy, “Yes I do” or “No I don’t” Please do
not be deceived by false and divisive people; Jesus has made this statement, “I
am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through
Me, John 14:1-6. Have a pleasant weekend, I will not be writing a devotional on
Friday.
