A Sad Day In America

If each man or woman redefines what is right and what is wrong personally under the false pretext that we are not to be discerning of sin, then what need is their for a Savior that saves us from sin? This is the very reason that God's word does not change. It breaks your heart and calls you to repentant trust in Christ or you are broken when its truths fall on you. By the way--if we redefine morality personally, who are we really trusting as God?

This nation has chosen to reject the LORD of holiness and purposefully redefine sin. In essence, this is a satanic attempt to make the nation feel no need to turn to the Cross. Without the cross--there is no salvation for salvation is a work of God alone. Those caught in wrong; however, have the nasty habit of trying to change morality as Proverbs 30:20 states. "Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness."

"That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD: Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits: Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us. Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon: Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant. And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit." Isaiah 30:9-14

True and right biblical love calls us not to stay is the cesspool while calling it a beach resort, but calls us, with patient and genuine concern, to turn to Christ and His cross for cleansing. True grace makes us to see the awesome and huge price paid for our salvation and calls us to wholly yield to Christ and His LORDSHIP. "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." Romans 12:1-2

This verse used to be printed in the front of the Bibles that were distributed to America's troops. Sad! 

His word is unchanging as He is unchanging; therefore, what is sinful in the Bible is still sinful and wicked today. Our opinions about right and wrong will not change what the LORD has said. "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away."

I awoke this morning reading about Joshua encountering the pre-incarnate appearance of Jesus who was Captain of the LORD's host. I used to always wonder why He was pictured as a captain and not on officer of higher rank. Captains lead the fight personally.

I just want you to know, America, who you have chosen to ignore and fight against.
