Today's World (13 June 2020)

Celebrations And Consequences

We are living in a world that is changing fast

what was unthinkable last week is becoming the norm

in Seattle there is a 6 block area that has been taken over by rioters

the police have moved out, the mayor and governor don’t seem to mind

the major cities around the country are de-funding the police

dangerous criminals are being let out of prison

How did we get here?

Let’s see what God says about this situation

Romans 1:18–23 NKJV

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

into every one born, God has put Knowledge of Himself

and people can see God in creation

but that has been surpressed

and have started worshiping nature

Romans 1:24–25 NKJV

Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

God Gave them up —You want to pretend that I don’t exist. then I’ll let you live like I don,t exist

Lets look at what we celebrate today..

Romans 1:26–27 NKJV

For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

America wants to portray this a good thing

something to be cheered

people deciding what gender they want to be

men competing in women’s athletics, and dominating

men going into women’s bathrooms

you know the rest..

lets continue in Romans 1

Romans 1:28 NKJV

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

their whole mindset is now different

we look some mayor or governor politician and say what are they thinking , dont’ they see this is tearing apart the country

don’t they care about their people

the consequences of this debased mind

Romans 1:29–32 NKJV

being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

isn’t this what we are seeing in America today?

this is exactly what is taught in God’s word would happen in the last days

I don’t think this country and world is going to get better

But There Is Hope

John 3:16 AV

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Jesus wants to give you a new life, a changed life,

I believe the rapture is very soon when the believers are going to be taken Home

Jesus, God the son came to earth to die for the sins.

to take the punishment that we deserved

Romans 3:23 NKJV

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Romans 6:23 NKJV

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

and if we put our trust in the finished work of the cross

Jesus died , was buried ,and God The Father raised Him from the grave on the third day

we need to turn from believing in ourselves. your ability to get into heaven by y

our own works

Ephesians 2:8–9 NKJV

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

will you do that today?
