Sin is the Root of all of Man’s Problems: Drugs are Never the Solution
Depression is merely the result of sin, of living in sin. Period. No stupid medicine has or ever will solve such. Only Jesus can and did solve man’s sin dilemma. Surrendering in repentant to the Savior is sin’s solution and all the evil it brings such as depression (Romans 6:23).
“Die to self! My depression left once I fully surrendered to the Lord my wicked self! Depression is all the result of you trying to do it in your own strength! And being stuck in self! Humbly surrender to God and He will lift you up out of the horrible pit (which is what depression is), the miry clay (despair) and set your feet upon the rock of Jesus! Then He will put a new song in your heart! A song of praise and thanksgiving to the Lord! (Psalm 40:2-3). The joy of the Lord will be your strength! (Nehemiah 8:10). Alleluia!” Karen Cochran
“And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries (pharmakeia) were all nations deceived. 24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.” Revelation 18:23-24

IF YOU BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE NEED TO BE INJECTED WITH CARCINOGENS, TOXINS, ABORTED FETAL CELLS, ANIMAL DNA, PARASITES, ANTIBIOTICS, FUNGI, INSECTICIDES, DISINFECTANTS, ETC., IN ORDER TO BE “HEALTHY,” YOU MAY NEED TO RE-EVALUATE WHO THE “CONSPIRACY THEORIST” IS. YOU ARE DELUSIONAL.
Sorcery: Witchcraft and illicit drugs. They go together. They deceive and put a spell on you by giving you a concocted diagnosis so they can sell you the drug and make you dependent on it so you have to keep buying it.
If you are allowing someone to convince you to poison your very life blood stream, it’s clear that you are not in control of your own life and therefore are giving control over to Satan’s government. God is certainly not in control of your life. We know that because He’s leading no one to put foreign substances into their blood stream (Leviticus 17:11, 14). Those who are His are temples of the Holy Spirit, not the state.
Jesus asks you: “Where is your faith?” (Mark 8:25) If your faith is in Him, truly, why do you trust earthly physicians, mere men, supposed “experts”, paid salesmen, and drugs which numb your mind and harden your heart, preventing you from truly knowing and walking with the LORD? Who sold you on the notion of trusting these mere men instead of the LORD Almighty? Who set them up as kings to reign over your life?
“COVID spelled backwards is DIVOC. Divoc in Hebrew means “Possession of the evil spirit.” Sorcery is a derivative of the Greek word “Pharmakeia” and this is the word from which we get the word “Pharmacy.” Sorcery also implies “Witchcraft.” They’re luring your soul with their spells and rituals to break the connection between you and your spirit (GOD) because they know that you’re the TRUE TEMPLE OF GOD.” unknown
Those foolish enough to agree to and accept the world’s diagnosis are then drugged.
Without faith in God, you will never be blessed or rewarded by God!
“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6
Drugs clearly indicate An epidemic of unbelief – a rejection of the lord.
Are you blessed or cursed?
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
King Asa trusted the physicians and not the LORD and he paid dearly.
“And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.” 2 Chronicles 16:12
Like Asa, many today trust the counsel of mere men, such as doctors and not God. This doesn’t mean going to a doctor is a sin and yet, the true disciple will primarily trust and obey and be led of the LORD, not men.
SATAN is targeting your blood stream. Make no mistake. – “The life of the flesh is in the BLOOD.” (Leviticus 17:11)
PHARMAKEIA Deception
From Pathway to Peace
Revelation chapter 18 gives a description of the fall of Babylon and in verse 23 it gives us the reason why all nations were deceived. This may be shocking for many people. Let’s read what the Bible says. Referring to the fall of Babylon Revelation 18:23 says “And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.”
By the “sorceries” of Babylon all nations were deceived. The Greek word for “sorceries” in verse 23 is “pharmakeia” [far-mak-i’-ah]. According to the Thayer Greek Dictionary “pharmakeia” is “the use or administering of drugs; poisoning; and sorcery, magical arts, often found in connection with idolatry and fostered by it.” If you put the original Greek word “pharmakeia” in place of the English word “sorceries” the end of verse 23 would say, “For by thy pharmakeia were ALL nations deceived”! “Pharmakeia” is where we get our English word “pharmacy”! Pharmacy is a well organized and professionalized system that administers poisonous drugs. The Bible reveals that Babylon will deceive all nations by the use of pharmacy that is in connection to “magical arts” and idolatry. “Magical arts” has its deep roots in witchcraft and the occultic world. We don’t have to do a deep Bible study to know that Satan is directly behind the magical arts and God’s people should have nothing to do with it. Professed deceived Christians today use “magical arts” under the disguise of contemplative prayer, “christian” humanism, and spiritual formation. In general those involved in sorcery, witchcraft, and magic are known to use “magic” potions to “heal”, deceive, poison, control, or kill someone.
Pharmacy mainly uses a mixture of toxic chemicals, metals, and/or synthetic elements to produce “pharmaceuticals” that are designed to manipulate the biochemistry or metabolic functions of the body in an attempt to get a “desired” affect in the treatment of a disease or sickness. In other words, pharmacy mixes up different types of poison, package it, patent it, and claims that it can treat certain types of diseases. The main problem with that system is that poison is poison. Pharmaceutical drugs are poisonous. When poison is put into the body it has negative effects on the entire body system from head to toe. These are not just “side effects” or “unintended” sicknesses or diseases that a person suffers as a result of using a drug. These are “direct effects” because the reality is that drugs have direct effects on the entire body system including the brain. When you go back to Revelation 18:23, Jesus uses the Greek word “pharmakeia” to reveal to us the main thing that will be used to deceive ALL people in the last days is a well organized system of administering poisonous drugs to billions of people that are not only toxic to the organs of body, but have direct negative effects on the brain. Many of these drugs used for a variety of reasons are known to cause problems with memory, mood, and contribute to negative personality changes.
Do you think Jesus is a part of this system? NO. Should true Christians be a part of this drugging system? No. This systematic poisoning is of Babylon and God’s people need to get out. We need to learn natures way of healing that God approves of through lifestyle and plant-based eating and herbs.
“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:14
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PUT IT ON TV AND GULLIBLE DUPES BELIEVE IT WITHOUT QUESTION: This passage below is specifically speaking of Lucifer, Satan. Think in terms of how effectively, satan, “the prince of the power of the air” (Ephesians 2:2) uses his human agents to mislead the masses: “They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; 17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?” (Isaiah 14:16-17)
The Bible and Drugs in Reality (Revelation)
From Christ is the Answer Prison Ministry
TITLE: THE BIBLE AND DRUGS IN REALITY
BOOK: BIBLE
TEXT: Revelation 21:8; 9:21; 18:23; 22:15
WORDS: SORCERER–SORCERERS–SORCERIES-
I am setting two guidelines in presenting my message/lesson on the Bible & Drugs.
First, I am using the King James Bible only.
Second I am using Abingdon’s Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible (1986) edition.
You might say I am being narrow-minded and I would say you are correct. Over the years of studying God’s Word (33yrs), I found out that a stand has to be made with what Bible to honor and what material to use. With the topic of drugs, I found the word SORCER, SORCERIES, SORCERERS in the Book of REVELATION to mean something different then what is found in some of the other books of the Bible. So, let’s see what God has informed us over 2,000 years ago, for our understanding and benefit.
After reading many lessons, sermons, and other documents concerning drugs,(And all of them were so detailed and concise in their approach) I just wanted to say a few words in this lesson that says; be sober, be vigilant, be wise, and be not ignorant concerning drugs, alcohol, and any mind adjusting substance.
THE WORDS: SORCERER, SORCERERS, SORCERIES, and SORCERY.
In the Bible you will find these words fifteen (15) times, 7 times in the Old Testament and 8 times in the New Testament. Of these fifteen times, four times they are found in the book of Revelation.
THE MEANINGS: SORCERER, SORCERERS, SORCERIES, and SORCERY.
1) SORCERER: Acts 13:6 & Acts 13:8 Greek word (Mag-os) meaning Magician, wise man, or sorcerer
2) SORCERIES:
Isaiah 47:9 & 12 Hebrew word (Kesheph) meaning practice magic, sorcery, witchcraft (Old Testament)
Acts 8:11Greek word (Mageia) meaning to practice magic, use sorcery (New Testament)
Acts 8:9 Greek word (Mageia) meaning to practice magic, use sorcery (New Testament)
Revelation 9:21 Greek word (Pharmakeia) meaning PHARMACY, medication, drugs, sorcery, witchcraft, magic) (N. T.)
Revelation 18:23 Greek word (Pharmakeia) meaning PHARMACY, medication, drugs, sorcery, witchcraft, magic) (N. T.)
Attempting to exercise control over another person is witchcraft and it’s always perpetrated by those who don’t even have their own life in order. Jesus calls them hypocrites and if they don’t repent, they are 100% guaranteed to be in hell (Matthew 7:2-5). “Witchcraft” is a soul damning sin (Galatians 5:19-21). All “sorcerers” are as sure for hell and the lake of fire as if they were already there! A sorcerer is anyone who uses drugs or anything else in order to control another person – to kill them, to manipulate them, etc.
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and SORCERERS, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8
“For without are dogs, and SORCERERS, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.” Revelation 22:15
SORCERERS:
The following 4 places of Scripture (In the O.T.) carry the same meaning.
Exodus 7:1, Daniel 2:2, Malachi 3:5, Jeremiah 27:9.
Hebrew word (Kashaph) meaning to whisper a spell, practice magic, sorcery, witchcraft.
Revelation 21:8 Greek word (pharmakeus) meaning PHARMACY, pharmacist, druggist, poisoner, magician, sorcerer (N.T.)
Revelation 22:15 Greek word (pharmakeus) meaning PHARMACY, pharmacist, druggist, poisoner, magician, sorcerer (N. T.)
THE PHARMACIST OF REVELATION: DRUGS
The most blatant form of sorcery in the book of Revelation is the multi-BILLION dollar pharmaceutical-medical industry, which just happens to be where it got its name pharmakeia. And just happens to be one of the biggest frauds being perpetrated on Americans today. Americans are deceived as more than half of all Americans today take their poison and put their faith and trust in magic pills.
THE PERFORMER OF DRUGS: SATAN
Maybe you never thought of this, but you should know that drug use opens you up to spiritual attack. Satan will use drugs and alcohol to get a stronghold in your life. He loves it when you drug yourself with alcohol and medication that gets you high.
Satan wants you to be off guard and hallucinating. There are specific demonic spirits associated with liquor and marijuana and cocaine and heroin, and opium, prescription drugs, illegal drugs, and any mixture of drugs, etc., and every time you use these substances, you could unknowingly be opening the doorway for these demonic spirits to come into your life. Satan loves it when you drink alcohol and use drugs because you are then in no shape to fight against his attacks. You are leaving yourself wide open to demonic possession.
Ephesians 6:12 warns us of such things: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
THE PROBLEM OF MISUSING DRINK & DRUGS:
A) DRUGS AND ALCOHOL DISQUALIFY YOU FROM BEING USED BY GOD
Don’t you want to be used by God? How can God use you as a witness to others if you have no self-control, are setting a bad example to others, and are behaving just like the world by drinking and getting high? God’s Word tells us that for us to be used by God; we must be sober and avoid intoxicating substances.
Titus 1:7-8, “For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine…But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just holy temperate.
Titus 2:2-6, “That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children… Young men likewise exhort to be soberminded.
B) DRUGS & ALCOHOL DEMAND A MASTER
God’s Word says, Matthew 6:24 (KJB) No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (Pharmakeia or the Physician?)
The law of human nature requires that supreme affections can be fixed on only one object. Jesus, the Son of the living God and God the Son says in Matthew 6:33 (KJB) But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness;…”
This corrupt world that we live in will tell you that to have fun and to be social and to look cool, you have to drink or get high. And then later if you become an alcoholic or a crack head, this twisted world says, “Well, that is okay. You just have a “disease.” But God’s Word tells you that your body is a holy temple, and that you are not to defile yourself with these substances. And if you insist on rebelling against God and indulging in alcohol and drugs, God’s Word calls you a drunkard and a fool. It is that simple.
You need to choose this day whom you will serve. You can serve God and ask Him to clean up your life, or you can continue serving your own fleshly lusts and drinking and getting high. And if you choose to serve God, you need to follow God’s command as found in this verse:
Ephesians 5:8-11 (KJB) For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) 10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
CHURCH: Start worshipping God and stop being entertained by wickedness of the world. Start calling good, good, and evil, evil, prepare for the battle that is at hand by following Ephesians 6:10-18.
WORLD: Stop being entertained by the wickedness of the world, surrender to God, be born-again, and start worshipping God, Do not call evil good and good evil. Prepare for the battle by following Matthew 6:33
THE PHYSICAN OF REVELATION: JESUS CHRIST
If You Have a Drug or Alcohol Problem Remember, regardless of where you have been or where you are now, God can turn around everything and give you a fresh, new beginning. Scripture tells us that in Christ, all things are made new (2 Corinthians 5:17) and you can become a new creature, blessed, healthy and whole! Get in a good Bible believing, Bible preaching, Christ centered church, find a good alcohol or drug treatment program (if needed) and don’t be afraid to ask for help!
Whereas the lust of your flesh for drugs and alcohol is strong, I know your partnership with Christ will make you stronger to withstand the temptation and see you through to a full recovery.
1 Cor 10:13 (KJB) There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
What is God saying about the end times concerning Drugs?
You cannot be my Disciples and be involved in Drugs
You cannot be my prayer warriors while using Drugs
What lesson do I hope that all of us will learn today, if we have not already learned it?
That substance abuse is dangerous and detrimental – physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. It lowers morals.
a. Ordinarily our conscience innately raises barriers which stop us from venturing into areas that are dangerous, immoral, or inappropriate.
b. But drugs short-circuit that safeguard. Drugs blow our moral fuses, confuse our judgment, and removes our self-control.
CONCLUSION
Satan has conquered over many with drugs and alcohol. Let’s be wise and keep our thoughts and bodies under control so he will not cause us to lose our souls. Remember these verses;
Rev. 9:21: The Great tribulation will be a period when the use of drugs will not be controlled. I believe drugs will play a large part in the lives of the unsaved and the saved. We all seem to partake in drugs to relieve our problems, hurts, pains, etc. Our culture today is drug infested. What we see today is only a beginning as to what it will be like in the Great Tribulation. I believe we will do anything to deaden the pain or increase the high we can get from drugs. Drugs help us in the area of sensuality, spirit-word, reckless transgressions, crimes, stimulating our vilest passions, etc
Rev. 18:23: This world is being deceived by sorceries (drugs) in music world, Hollywood, gambling, and all antichrist activities. All nations will be deceived and drugs will have a big part in it. I see it in my prison ministry on a daily basis.
Rev. 21:8 Read this verse and see all that is going to be cast into the lake of fire, right in the midst is the drug culture.
Rev. 22:15 OUTSIDE the CITY are whoremongers, dogs, murderers, idolaters, liars, and sorcerers (Drug culture)
Nowhere else is Pharmacy/druggist, found in the Bible as being a tool of Satan against the world (Lost & Saved) then in the book of revelation.
Some of the material in this document has been copied. I also do not believe that all physicians are sorcerers or all sorcerers are physicians. I do believe that Satan has used his powers of darkness to guide mankind towards a direction opposite of God’s way. I also believe God will bring a delusion in the last days upon all who reject Him.
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 In his prayer of repentance, the sweet psalmist of Israel, the beloved David, cried “Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit” (Psalms 51:12). “I took these drugs for 20+ years and they are dangerous, highly addictive and can do lasting damage. They cure nothing and in many cases cause more long term problems. Depression is absolutely demonic in my […]
PHARMAKEIA AND SORCERY
author unknown SATAN is targeting your blood stream. Make no mistake. – “The life of the flesh is in the BLOOD” (Leviticus 17:11). Pharmakeia is a form of the Greek root word from which we get our English words: Pharmacy, Pharmacist, and Pharmaceutical. In the Bible, pharmakeia carried with it the idea of sorcery, occultism, and black magic. It is in this sense that Paul used the term in Galatians 5:20 as the word “witchcraft.” Back then, apothecaries were your go-to for drugs and medicines. but did you know they also specialized in potion-making? And we know just how abominable potions […]

Viewing Charlie Kirk Through the Eyes of God’s Word [podcast]
Did Charlie Kirk do more for Christ than many of those who have become preoccupied with condemning him?
“The world shall rejoice”
Some people, even some falsely claiming to be Christians rejoice when others, when Christians die.
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.” John 16:20
Earlier in this very chapter Jesus foretold that the way they hated and persecuted Him, so shall the do to you, His followers. Take a look:
“These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. 2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. 3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.” John 16:1-3
Sorting things out…
IF someone sees a NON-essential issue, such as the Charlie Kirk issue, differently than you see it, that does not make them unsaved. Get a clue and get over yourself. Dare we cause division in the body of Christ based on things NOT essential salvation!?
“Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. 5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.” Romans 14:3-4
Nothing the haters of Charlie Kirk can say that undoes, negates the preaching of God’s Word Kirk did. Just before he was murdered he declared that “It’s ALL about Jesus!” and “Jesus died so we could live.”
Charlie died as a young man and didn’t have the seasoning and experience of 40, 50, 60, 70 year olds. He had been misled in some ways and yet it seems he finished in the faith. The more of his videos one may watch, the more this may become evident. Yet, either way, the way we view him is no essential to salvation. The way we view and believe or disbelieve Jesus Christ IS essential to salvation.
Earlier today, a man told me to “repent” for seeing this Charlie Kirk issue differently than he sees it. So, it seems he is acting in the place of God, being his own god, to whom everyone around him must bow down and serve. Seems that anyone who doesn’t see everything the way he does, in his corrupted self-serving mind, needs to repent. There was no sin he cited that I committed so, what should I repent for? For seeing something different than he sees it?
He cared more about his own opinion than the body of Christ that Jesus died and rose again for. Read Romans 14. There is liberty in things NOT essential to salvation. This week I have unfriended and blocked several people who are out of control with their seeking to violate the liberty the LORD gives to each of His saints in NON-essentials.
“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” Psalms 133:1
“Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:3
Jesus commanded that we “LOVE one another” and that’s what the true remnant of Christ will do (John 13:34).
“By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” John 13:15
Walking in God’s love does not lead us to violate the God-given individual liberty of other of His children whom He died to save. Do you understand what is taught in Romans 14?
God is and will continue to use the death of Charlie Kirk for His own glory and the Almighty didn’t need you or your puny permission to do so.
If Charlie Kirk didn’t often speak God’s Word, how is it then now after his death, that scores of people are coming forth saying they are now seeking God as a result of what was spoken out of the mouth of Charlie Kirk?
It seems that there are some among us who would rather see people go to hell than for God to dare use Charlie Kirk’s life to save those people’s souls.
As usual there are many conflicting theories including that CK faked his death …. I don’t have all the answers…. do you? What does Deuteronomy 29:29 tell us?
Just before he was murdered, Charlie Kirk posted the following statement: “Jesus defeated death so you could live.”
“This is being said in love. There are people on here who probably should step back and do a lot more reading of the word of God and praying and a lot less talking and posting. I’m seeing way too much strife, pride, slander, bearing false witness, unrighteous judgment, hypocrisy, and in some cases hatred. None of those things bring glory to the Lord Jesus Christ.” Gloria
God gave us 2 ears and just 1 mouth – so we do more listening (to Him and others) than speaking.
“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.” James 1:19-20
“Charlie Kirk’s death is shaking the church. In more then one way, some are revealing spotted hearts, others are being humbled & coming to repentance. Whatever you think of his politics, he was not ashamed of Christ. He boldly declared his faith to millions! Charlie absolutely died in the faith. Pause and recognize this.
This is not about Trump, MAGA, False Trump prophets, NAR or politics—it is about whether we will love the brethren in spite of our differences and humble ourselves before God. “If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar” (1 John 4:20). This is a test of the heart.
Don’t let yourself be too distracted with rabbit holes, conspiracies, and opinions of man to miss this moment in your own heart. “God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble” (James 4:6).
This is not a call to civil uprising against the “Left”—God forbid! it is a call for repentance in the Church. (starting in my own heart first) This doesn’t mean you have to follow MAGA, or stop using critical thinking.” Robin Figtree
The WORD of God he spoke shattered and will continue to destroy the lies told in our generation. There’s no denying this. God even uses donkeys to speak His Word and the effect is the same because it’s GOD’s Word (Numbers 22). Isaiah 55:11 ….. Nothing can undo that Word of God he spoke by which sinners are saved, born again (1 Peter 1:23).
“Charlie Kirk was faithful unto death. He stood boldly against abortion , LGBT indoctrination , and Islam’s denial of Jesus Christ . For lifting up the Gospel , he was martyred in front of his family . He finished his race and will receive the crown of life (Rev 2:10).
Is Charlie’s life and death not galvanizing many to overcome the fear of man and preach Christ’s Gospel?
True & False Disciples: Many will say “Lord, Lord,” pointing to works and miracles , but Jesus will say, “I never knew you; depart, ye that work iniquity” .
Two Foundations: The wise build on the rock by hearing and doing Jesus’s words . The foolish build on sand , hearing but not obeying, and their fall is great .
The Shaking of Our Time
Hebrews 12 says God is shaking all things . We are seeing the separation between those who endure in Christ and those who walk in Balaam’s compromise .
Charlie Kirk: HAD FLAWED DOCTRINE & Limited understanding but chose bold faith .
Only those who build on the Rock — hearing and obeying Jesus’s words — will endure the storm and stand WITH CROWNS in the FINAL judgment.
Final Word:
Claiming the name of Jesus isn’t enough. Works and ministries aren’t enough. Obedience, endurance, and faithfulness unto death are required (Rev 2:10, Matt 24:13).
“The question is not: Do you say “Lord, Lord”? The question is: Are you building on the Rock or the sand?” Glenn Langohr
“For those who say Charlie didn’t share the gospel, of which I could share multiple videos of him doing such, I think this is about as close as it gets! “Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.” 1 Corinthians 12:3 KJV.” Stacy Strother
Having limited knowledge, that is my opinion on it….. the truth he spoke cannot be unspoken nor minimalized and it lives on.
I’ve actually exposed this on a post on the ministry site safeguardyoursoul.com ….. yet IMO it seems Kirk, being only 31, didn’t understand many things and erred … yet that does not negate the fact that he did boldly declare the Word of God.
“There are videos of Charlie Kirk rebuking Catholicism for praying to Mary etc and rebuking Mormonism. Charlie Kirk was ignorant of much on sound doctrine for sure. But was he faithful to what GOD called him to do?” Glenn Langohr
This seems to reveal that Charlie Kirk didn’t understand with any depth what “the faith” of the Gospel. He was learning. Did you understand everything in God’s Word and about the false religions before you grew in the Word? As a young Christian, I thought the mormons were Christians and later found out that was false. Even if all these evil things about Charlie Kirk are true, NOTHING negates, diminishes that he spoke God’s Word on many occasions.
The vilest of demon possessed psychopaths are celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk. Why would they do such if Charlie Kirk made no impact for the LORD? They wouldn’t.
There are some people who HATE Charlie Kirk…. but just remember, it doesn’t matter if it’s a man or a donkey, if the Word of God is coming out of their mouth, it’s still the Word of God. In Numbers 22 God used a donkey to speak to and warn Balaam. No one can deny that Charlie Kirk spoke God’s Word. If a person denies such, you know you are 1). dealing with a person who just hasn’t seen it with their own eyes, or 2). a dishonest person who has an agenda.
“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11
To a man whose feelings were heart by the straight talk of Charlie Kirk, the following reply was given:
Only a moral coward would object to a man speaking the truth straight. Too many pansies flying around these days, pretending to be men of God. Not. Read Matthew 23. Would you call Christ’s apostle Paul a man of God, of truth, or man full of “hate speech”?
Here’s what Paul said to a false prophecy:
“And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, THOU CHILD OF THE DEVIL, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?” Acts 13:10
“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.” 2 Timothy 2:3
“Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit (act!) you like men, be strong.” 1 Corinthians 16:13
When a man truly repents, he will fear God and the LORD will give him a steel spine.
Charlie Kirk’s advice to a young man who asked.
Read your Bible.
Do what it says.
Tell others what the Bible says
Does this murder principally resemble Cain and Abel?
“And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. 6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. 8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.” Genesis 4:1-8
Cain murdered his brother Abel out of jealousy and resentment. His (Cain’s) life was not going well due to doing things his own way instead of God’s way. So he was in darkness and miserable and therefore became jealously enraged that his brother’s life was flourishing and full of life due to Abel serving God on God’s terms (Matthew 6:33).
Keep in mind that at just 31 years old, Charlie Kirk had built a movement that is worldwide and of enormous proportions of influence over young people in particular. There would seem to be lots to be jealous of if one is sulking in, living in sin.
We do know that “There is no new thing under the sun.” (Ecclesiastes 1:9) Could this same scenario have played out between Charlie Kirk and his killer? What kind of evil drove Kirk’s murderer to plan and go climb upon a roof and wait hours to murder his fellow man?
One overview of the Murder of Abel by his brother Cain goes as such:
It would seem apparent that Satan wanted Charlie Kirk killed due to Charlie boldly proclaiming parts of the Word of God. That alone does not mean Charlie was saved and/or doing things God’s way in all the areas of his thinking or organization. But one thing is certain, Kirk did declare God’s Word at times and no matter the human source, the human communicator it’s still the Word of God and was reaching millions (Isaiah 55:11). Charlie was a bold statesman like figure with communication giftings that were profound.
Cain killed Abel due to jealousy and resentment after God accepted Abel’s offering but rejected Cain’s, which God found to be of lesser quality and gratitude. Although the Bible doesn’t explicitly state the exact motivation, Cain became depressed and took his anger out on Abel, leading to the first murder.
The Biblical Account
The Offerings: Cain, a farmer, and Abel, a shepherd, both presented offerings to God.
Rejection of Cain’s Offering: Abel offered the “first and fattest sheep of his flock”, while Cain offered “some of his poorer crops”. God accepted Abel’s offering but rejected Cain’s.
Cain’s Anger: Cain became very angry and depressed after God rejected his offering.
The Murder: Cain met Abel in a field and murdered him, taking out his anger on his brother.
Why Cain was Jealous
God’s Acceptance: Cain was jealous that Abel’s offering was accepted and his was not.
Pride and Resentment: Cain’s pride was wounded, and he resented God’s righteous judgment.
Interpretations
Jealousy as the motive:
Many interpreters, including ancient exegetes like Josephus, believe that jealousy was the primary cause for the murder.”
Those who do things their own way instead of God’s, are full of misery and pent up resentment and therefore jealousy of those who do things God’s way which always brings blessings to their lives. This was the case with Cain and likely the case with Charlie Kirk’s killer.
Like Cain, who was jealous of Abel and therefore murdered him in cold blood, could it be that there are those who are jealous of the influence, the diligence and success of Charlie Kirk who are now assassinating him with their heart hatred and the words of their mouths? Could that be the reason many are taking their hatred public against him, after he’s been murdered? Notice how these same people have no joy for the fact that Charlie Kirk did preach some of God’s Word and it did and is reaching many.
“What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.” Philippians 1:18
So yes Paul rejoices that Christ was preached which Charlie did much of the time and yet Charlie did speak some things that are not true……
Does satan care if only half the things you say are Bible truth? No. If the 50% of truth you preach, it’s still the Word and getting planted in the hearts of men who need God…..
Charlie was once asked a pretty wild question:
“If I had 30 seconds to live, I’m dying of a gunshot wound, what would you actually want to tell me?”
Charlie Kirk told the man that he must repent and receive Christ as his LORD and Savior.
SUMMATION: i don’t sense in CK an intentionally evil heart…. misled by others, those older than him, yes but having a heart determined to be or work evil? I don’t see it. I have seen and heard Charlie boldly, clearly state too much biblical truth to believe he is intentionally believing other things that are error.

Of Charlie Kirk, brother Glenn Langohr writes:
“Charlie Kirk’s voice reached millions . He defended God’s covenant of marriage , the duty of men to provide , and stood against abortion — fighting demonic powers that shed innocent blood (Ps 106:37–38, Gen 4:10). He resisted LGBT propaganda corrupting the young, standing like a watchman . For this, we give God glory and remember him as a man used in significant ways.
But friends, Charlie also had errors . He confessed he “cringes” at street preachers , yet Jesus Himself came preaching “Repent or perish” (Luke 13:3) and commanded, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel” (Mark 16:15). Paul declared, “God commands all men everywhere to repent” (Acts 17:30). Street preaching is God’s pattern (Jer 7, Acts 5, 1 Cor 1:18–21). To belittle it is to misunderstand the very tool God uses to save.
Charlie was also misled by Jack Hibbs’ Pre-Tribulation rapture teaching , which Scripture refutes. Paul warns: “Let no man deceive you… that day shall not come except there come a falling away first, and the man of sin be revealed” (2 Thess 2:3). Daniel 12 calls endurance to 1,335 days “blessed” . Revelation 20 says those beheaded for Jesus will reign with Him 1,000 years . The Church will face Antichrist’s persecution before Jesus returns. Charlie finished his course as a martyr, but we must carry on, warning: Only those who endure to the end shall be saved (Matt 24:13).”
He said a lot of good, Bible based things…. WHY would anyone argue with that part?
Many a celebrity has claimed to be Christian yet never spoke the Word of God publicly perhaps for fear of it hurting their career, their money. Such was not the case with Charlie Kirk. He spoke boldly and often about Christ Jesus and His Gospel.
One saint of Christ notes the following:
“The amount of deception with his (Kirk’s) death is shocking!! Everyone seems to be an expert at what they think he believed.”
The hatred of professing Christians against Charlie Kirk is a concern (1 John 3:14-15).
We should be busy about our Father’s business right? Some seem to be wasting their time nit picking Charlie Kirk, feeling like that MUST weigh in on him instead of letting God handle what is in HIS hands (Deuteronomy 29:29).
WHY would satan’s people hate him so much if he didn’t spread the Gospel, the Word to some degree?
“I was an atheist, and this event made me realize I had been asking the wrong questions. I’m going to church tomorrow to pray for Charlie’s family, and I want to learn about Christ and what made Charlie so courageous to risk his life and spread the gospel. Seeing those who celebrate and are justifying his death proved evil is real, and the only way to fight back is with grace and faith. Charlie did not die in vain. He didn’t deserve this, but his courage and faith live on. Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk.” Michael Choi
I was critical of his pumping of the pope…. and his seeming lean toward ecumenism and yet Charlie Kirk did speak God’s Word strongly at times…..I choose to rejoice at that. I saw a guy in his 40s interviewed yesterday, in tears for Charlie Kirk’s death…. he said he was a life long atheist but Charlie Kirk and how he spoke, brought the man to Christ. Also Paul rejoiced that the Gospel was preached even when preached by mixed bags with bad motives even amen Phil 1. God knows all. “What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.” Philippians 1:18
If Paul did, shouldn’t we, Christ’s disciples today rejoice when the Gospel is preached – regardless of who is speaking the words of God?
Yes and yet God is God
“Philippians 1:15-16
Some indeed preach Christ out of contention – Envying Paul’s success, and striving to hurt him thereby. Not sincerely – From a real desire to glorify God. But supposing – Though they were disappointed. To add more affliction to my bonds – By enraging the Romans against me.” John Wesley
“1:15 The motive in some hearts was jealousy and rivalry. They preached Christ out of envy and contentiousness.
Others had sincere and pure motives; they preached Christ from good will, in an honest effort to help the apostle.
1:16 The jealous preachers thought that by doing this they might make Paul’s imprisonment more bitter. Their message was good, but their temper was bad. It is sad to think that Christian service can be carried on in the energy of the flesh, motivated by greed, strife, pride, and envy. This teaches the necessity for watching our motives when we serve the Lord. We must not do it for self-display, for the advancement of a religious sect, or for the defeat of other Christians. Here is a good example of the necessity for our love to be exercised in knowledge and discernment. 1:17 Others were preaching the gospel out of pure and sincere love, knowing that Paul was determined to defend the gospel. There was nothing selfish, sectarian, or cruel in their service. They knew very well that Paul had been committed to prison because of his bold stand for the gospel. So they determined to carry on the work while he was thus confined. 1:18 Paul refuses to be downcast by the wrong motives of some. Christ is being preached by both groups, and that is for him a great cause for rejoicing.
It is remarkable that under such difficult circumstances, Paul does not feel sorry for himself or seek the sympathy of others. Rather he is filled with the joy of the Lord and encourages his readers to rejoice also.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“Charlie because of you, I’m going back to church!! Thank you.” Laura
“Charlie’s departure from earth is evidence that his message was effective and darkness cannot stand the light . RIP Charlie Kirk.” Jane
“I’m going to church on Sunday due to this beautiful man.” Matt
“I’m old enough to be Charlie’s father but he inspired me and taught me some things I researched to confirm truth. He was brilliant, highly educated and a national treasure. He’s w/Jesus Christ Jesus now. They can only threaten us w/heaven.” Veteran
“Charlie brought me closer to Jesus. The pain I’m feeling from his death is indescribable. I’ve never met him, but I learned so much from him, I learned truth. The boldness in him is now released into us. Gen z, this is God putting it into our face that life is short, life is a mission to glorify God. It’s time to fully live for Jesus, and speak truth in boldness like Charlie. I truly love him, he helped transform my heart from stone to flesh. I spent so much time listening to him, getting to know him. This pain is weighing heavy, he is such a pure light, someone who’s very rare to find. I’m so blessed to have listened to him during my life, thank You God for putting him in our lives. Mission well served. Rip faithful servant.” unknown
So personally I don’t feel the need to try to prognosticate who goes to Heaven or not in general… by the fruit it is obvious with some and not with others, as in this case right
Ah yes does it not glorify satan instead of Jesus when at this critical hour in HIS-story we have fightings within….
Instead of simply obeying our LORD who is God and has everything under His Almighty control? Right
“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1
The way I see this is …..The fact that “Christians” are idolizing him doesn’t change the facts though right
That is not his fault.
He seemed to be very humble actually and didn’t seek to unduly draw attn to himself
And that’s the consistent testimony of others who knew him
We know him by his own fruit right, not the fruit of those who sinfully seeking to elevate him “above that which is written of men” right 2 Cor 4:6
Matthew 24:14 we are His ambassadors to preach His glorious Gospel and leave the God things to God right 😉
This headline is a lie: “TRANS Radicalism Responsible For Charlie Kirk’s Death.” That’s an intentional misdirection. The evil doers, satan’s children, who authored and perpetrated the “trans radicalism” to destroy the world, are the ones who murdered Charlie Kirk. Kirk had the God-given right to freedom of speech. I did not agree with some things he has said and have published those concerns. But Jesus and His apostles never forwarded the Gospel message by violence, by murdering those who differed.
“Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.” John 18:36
What was done to Charlie Kirk was the same thing John Calvin did in Geneva, Switzerland to over 60 people who disagreed with him.
“the devil … He was a murderer from the beginning”
“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” John 8:44
MESSAGE FROM SINNER CONCERNING CHARLIE KIRK:
“But still your God does nothing.. it didn’t even stop a person in his best interests from being killed?? Either God is weak and the devil is in control or none of them exist. The more likely observation is, that they don’t exist.”
REPLY:
Friend, sinner, if God didn’t exist, neither would you. You sound like the darkened souls who stood at the foot of the cross when Jesus was dying for their sins, our sins….. they taunted “And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.” (Luke 23:35) He ultimate victory would come from His death, which of necessity had to precede His burial and resurrection. Jesus is alive. This is the victory that God ordained and at times He allows His people also to die a natural death and out of it His triumph comes. God sees all of your sins and will save, will forgive all your sins if you will heed His simple message to repent and believe upon Christ. Your life will never be right, your heart will never be happy until you do so. I am living proof of that! Jesus is coming.
“For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened (made alive thereafter, raised up, resurrected) by the Spirit:” 1 Peter 3:18
MAKING PEACE WITH GOD (Spanish version here) Are you ready to Pass from Death to Life? God desires to pardon you – before it’s too late. Jesus beckons you to “Come unto me” — while you can (Matthew 11:28-30). “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 GOD sees all sin and will either […]

TIMES OF REFRESHING FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD! Who’s Ready for Some “RAIN” from Heaven? God desires to refresh His people, to rain His bless-ed mercy, forgiveness, and benefits down on them …. and our part is fresh repentance…. “Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” Hosea 10:12 What are the stated conditions to receive the “rain” of the LORD from Heaven? “Sow to yourselves in RIGHTEOUSNESS” “reap in MERCY” “break up your fallow ground” “for it […]
Charlie Kirk just Endorsed the New Pope [podcast]
Update: Charlie Kirk is ramping up his promotion of the catholic church. Orthodox is virtually the same and just as false. Beware. He’s a vatican shill, an accomplice, a pawn of Rome. “And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” Revelation 17:5 Charlies Kirk claims he’s an “evangelical Christian” which is exactly how the vatican works. They use supposed Christians like Billy Graham and many others to get non-catholics to turn to and bow to Rome and its false salvation. This is the ecumenical movement and the […]

SO, we prayed for God to use us today right? …. He’s hearing our prayer.
So, in the gym this morning, a lady near me was struggling to get a large plate on each side of the barbell. So, I began to help her and she said “No Ingles” which means she does not speak English. So, I affirmed that she speaks Spanish and I began to speak God’s Word to her in her language. Her face lit up and she thanked me. God is good!
Jesus says “The seed is the word of God” and His people are planting it today in the hearts of others in order for God to bring them to Himself. God be praised in Jesus Christ our LORD and Savior today and forever!
How were we, how are others “born again”? – “the the word of God.”
“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 1:23
Sharing the Gospel in Spanish! YOU can do it! Go here.
The body of Christ in the earth is TEAM JESUS!
The body of Christ is “striving together for the faith of the gospel”, … “WE are labourers together with God.” (Philippians 1:27; 1 Corinthians 3:9)
Let’s lift this up now….. Holy Father, You are the LORD of the harvest. In the name of Jesus Christ, we here and now ask You to send forth more laborers and supporters into the fields which You told us are ready to be harvested. In Jesus’ name. Thank You LORD Jesus !
Ever notice how some church goers live their life trying to get others to go to their church? Question: As you read God’s Word, do you see Jesus, His apostles, or the earliest followers of Jesus inviting people to their church? Or, do you see them bringing the love, the truth, the Gospel to the people?
“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. 36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:35-38
Oh and this…
“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.” Acts 8:4
Those in charge in the so-called “church” buildings are perpetuating their own existence and not taking the Gospel of Jesus to the people. Unlike Jesus and all of His true disciples throughout New Testament history, they have no concern for lost souls.
Tens of thousands of saints and sinners are being reached each month with the Word of God via a multiplicity of diverse venues.
Books like the Born Again book and Moments with Our Master, etc. continue to go forth to the incarcerated. Today a copy of the Born Again book was sent to a man who confessed to the murder of 16 people (Sean Lannon). GOD is able saints!
Giving God praise for those who support HIS work. Your support is vital. Jesus Christ is KING! and He’s coming soon! “WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” (1 Cor 3:9) | Because You Care
JESUS HASN’T AND WILL NOT RESCIND HIS GREAT COMMISSION MANDATE. ARE YOU PARTICIPATING? He commanded us to “GO ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” (Mark 16:15)

Examples and Blessings of Sharing God’s Love
This recent letter below is from Brother John Becknell in Kentucky. John and I met when I called his store after seeing a Fox news article featuring their no-mask policy store front sign. It was a divine connection for certain and we’ve been blessed to continually supply brother John and the believers around him with Bibles and the Moments for Our Master 365 devotional books. Also, John referred us to a women’s recovery home there in his area which we’ve been blessed to also supply with Bibles and copies of the devotional books.
“Brother Todd, To say the least … it’s been busy here. Alvin’s was blessed to give away 510 free Christmas dinners to anyone in the community who came into the store the Sunday after Christmas Day. We had made all the preparations for the dinners to be served on Christmas Day… but we got about 7 or 8 inches of surprise snow and black ice, temperatures dropped into the teens; ice everywhere, broken water lines on Christmas Eve. The ice was really bad; cars off the road all around us. Several stranded people came into the store and stayed until the roads were passable Friday night. We gave away coffee and snacks to those who came in out of the storm. We had to postpone the dinner until Sunday… it was a nightmare, but God saw us through and Sunday we had a glorious time! We were able to give away the Bibles you sent. We made a display and placed them on a table directly in front of our hot bar. We talked with many people and gave the ones that wanted one a Bible… There’s nothing better than being able to feed food to the body and nourishment to the Spirit! As you know Christmas is a hard time for many families and we got to minister Hope and pray with several people… Thanks for all the prayers and support especially during Christmas with the Bibles and devotionals… ‘People need Hope, they need healing, they need to reach out for the Master, they need the Word.’ Matt 9:22. God Bless you and your ministry for sending the Word; it will bring much light in this dark place… John (and yes, we could use a few Bibles and Devotionals).” John Becknell
“Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.” John 4:35-38
Below are recent letters from sister Dana, a dear disciple we have had fellowship with for years and whom the ministry outreach has been blessed to supply – due to the love offerings of Christ’s saints.
Here’s How Our LORD Instructed us to Pray
“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. 36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:35-38
Feel free to lift a lady named Cindy in prayer….. the following was given to her…
@Cindy – We have all sinned against God and shall all stand before our Maker, the Judge of our eternal souls, to give full account. “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.” (Psalms 14:1) Lying, stealing, coveting, using His holy name in vain, lusting, fornication, etc. are sins we’ve all committed and are 100% guilty and will pay for our own sins in hell for eternity. The Almighty owes you nothing. You need Him. He does not need you.
The Purpose, Limits, and Blessing of Civil Government
WHO ELSE IS LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS DAY?
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.” Isaiah 9:6-7
There will be no perfect gov’t till JESUS returns – the government will then be assumed by Heaven’s King, It will then be upon HIS shoulders right? Is. 9:6-7 It will only then be perfect!!!!
Jesus is coming.
Punishing Evil Doers is Essential in this Fallen World, Age
FATHER, in the name of Jesus Christ, we ask You now, afresh, to expose and to plunder the wickedness, the evil forces seeking to take this nation down (Matthew 10:26-28). Call and grant true repentance to those who call themselves by Your holy name (2 Chronicles 7:14-15). Heal this land that Your holy name is glorified and Your people live “quiet and peaceable” lives (1 Timothy 2:1-8). In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
Doing justice requires us to “CONDEMN THE WICKED”
Deuteronomy 25:1
“If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.”
It is an “abomination to the LORD” to justify the wicked or to condemn the just:
“He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.” Proverbs 17:15
NO matter what, we know God is a just God – a God of justice. So, we pray….
Holy Father, may justice be done in this nation. Expose the roots of wickedness that pose as righteous. May the Haman’s be hung in the gallows they created to murder others. Root out the wicked doers and cause Your people to humble themselves in true repentance and obedience to do Your great commission to teach Your Word to all. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
If our leaders and country and the peace thereof doesn’t matter …
WHY did God ordain them? (Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-14)
WHY did God instruct us to specifically pray for such? (1 Timothy 2:1-6; Jeremiah 29:7)
Glad Trump escaped the bullet, death, attempted assassination. Biblical Fact: God hears, answers, and uses the prayers of His people to do His bidding and anoints and sends men to destroy evil, God-less regimes. The LORD will do as He sees fit – NOT as you see fit, sinner. in case it weren’t obvious enough – He doesn’t need our puny, no-count permission. Read of Jehu’s anointing to do just that in 2 Kings 9 when he was anointed by God to destroy the kingdom, regime of Ahab and Jezebel. Also, Nebuchadnezzar, HEATHEN king of Babylon, was anointed by God to destroy many nations and was called by the LORD His “hammer.” (Jeremiah 50:23) Cyrus, a PAGAN, the ruler of Persia, was called by God His “battle axe.” (Jeremiah 51:20) The Bible also says this of Cyrus: “Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;” (Isaiah 45:1) These biblical facts make it clear that God, who owns all, uses evil men at times to do His bidding, His work. The kings, civil rulers were not children of God and the LORD used them. If HIS divine plan is to use Trump, anyway HE pleases. including to destroy an evil regime, a syndicate and system, that’s up to HIM.
Who do YOU think you are, piece of dust?
“Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.” 1 Samuel 2:3
“The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.” Proverbs 8:13
Beware though: Some confuse God protecting and using Trump with him being a true Christian. Unless we hear the name of Jesus Christ, a salvation testimony, coming out of a man’s mouth, we cannot believe they are a true born again Christian (Acts 4:12; Luke 12:8-9). Even the devils, demons believe in God and tremble but we know they are not part of God’s kingdom (James 2:19).
Jesus says: “Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God: 9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.” (Luke 12:8-9)
Civil government is the ordination of God where He appoints men to punish “evildoers” (Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-14). He is all-wise and all-loving! We His people are commanded to pray for “all in authority” while we fulfill Christ’s Great Commission command to make Him known, that is, the “one mediator between God and men”, Jesus Christ (1 Timothy 2:1-6) The civil government servants are “God’s ministers” that “are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers” so that the family unit and body of Christ are kept safe in this fallen world where wicked men abound (Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-14).
This is biblically stated and therefore non-negotiable.
Let that sink in.
GOD COMMANDED US TO PRAY FOR OUR LEADERS AND NATION
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we petition You now to let the light shine on the darkness of this government and for justice to come upon the wicked. In Jesus’ name.
Praying for our leaders and nation doesn’t mean it’s our main focus and yet if God’s people don’t pray, the nation falls (2 Chronicles 7:14; Jeremiah 29:7; 1 Timothy 2:1-8).
Personally, this disciple has to watch, to monitor and examine myself daily. From birth was taught patriotism and was a Marine 7 years. VERY thankful for America. So it’s in my blood but I must remain abiding in Christ and uphold Jesus as “first love” and have no idols! (Revelation 2:4-5) God will damn all idolaters (Exodus 20:3-4; 34:14; Ephesians 5:5-9; Revelation 21:8, etc.).
Those who care and fight for our nation and yet aren’t obeying Christ by participating in the LORD’s Great Commission, are in need of returning to Jesus as “first love” – first priority (Revelation 2:4-5).
God commands us to pray and give thanks for all in authority (1 Timothy 2:1-3).
GOD gave us those freedoms so we can quietly and peaceably – without chaos – make known Christ the “one mediator between God and men.” (1 Timothy 2:1-8)
Some still wish to vaunt their ignorance, self-righteously pretending that civil government isn’t of God or doesn’t invoke their personal participation, namely in the divine command for us to pray for “all in authority.” (1 Timothy 2:1-3) And there’s divine incentive given us in such praying – that we might lead “quiet and peaceable” lives (1 Timothy 2:1-3).
“And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.” Jeremiah 29:7
Not caring for your nation is like not caring to patch the hole in the sinking boat you’re in. Foolishness. This is how unappreciative some are – they act too spiritual to involve themselves enough to obey God and pray for those in authority. Then they self-righteously blame those who are concerned and praying as being idolaters. Silly. Novice. God commanded you to be interested enough in your nation and leaders and incentivized enough to pray to Him for your nation, for all in civil authority in that nation – “that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty” and “for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.”
Yet in that “quiet and peaceable life” God desires our society to experience, the body of Christ is to make known the “one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” – this is all in the same passage – amazing!!!! (1 Timothy 2:1-6) …. oh and men are to pray in our nation, everywhere! (v8) BAM No matter what, the Great Commission must be the top priority of God’s people – feeding His sheep and evangelism (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 24:47).
Wow. Wow. Wow. More on this glorious 1 Timothy 2 passage in a moment.
Speaking of how God uses wicked men, Sharon Cornella Scutti writes:
“Jesus, when He commanded, meant GO into all the world (systems) — Matthew 5:16. . ‘Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.’ (Matthew 5:16)”
From Bible.org
“First, civil government is secular in nature while Christianity is spiritual. Christians are aliens and strangers, just passing through this world (see 1 Peter 1:1). Their citizenship is in heaven (Philippians 3:20). Second, the state can look upon Christianity as competitive, even hostile to its authority. The Christian’s highest authority is God. In Rome, Caesar was “god.” Because of this, Romans considered Christians as atheists. Christianity was eventually seen as treasonous. Third, at times Christians were required to “obey God, rather than men” (see Acts 5:29), which openly confirmed the government’s suspicions. Fourth, government officials, either unconsciously or willingly, used their authority to actively oppose the church and to persecute Christians.”
Some Christians draw a hard line, claiming that because Jesus and His apostles weren’t witnessed being involved in civil government (although Paul did appeal using his Roman citizenship), that Christians today should have nothing to do with it. Is this true? Is that what “come out from among them” really means? (2 Corinthians 6:17) The context of this “come out” command is speaking of being separate in the way we, as God’s people, live in this fleeting world, and not of necessarily being completely disconnected from the people and institutions of this world. Paul says we would have to leave this world to get away from the sinners of this world – “then must ye needs go out of the world.” (1 Corinthians 5:10) Yet, in this fleeting world, God desires civility and therefore ordained civil government to keep things civil – “for the punishment of evildoers.” (1 Peter 2:14)
Think about what America would be like if there were no consequences for hurting others. There were no crime systems or jails. Look at the rampant looting, murder, assaults happening now on our streets where civil authorities in those areas are refusing to do their God-ordained duty of protecting the people, the community. And, when someone is jailed for a crime, they are immediately released to go commit the same crime and worse. Without civil authorities, there’s no deterrent from evil men doing every evil under the sun.
Notice in this important passage below how the LORD informs us that it’s His will that we pray for those in civil authority in order that we, His people living in this fallen world temporarily, can “lead a quiet and peaceable life” (civility) as they carry out His great commission, making known Jesus, the one and only “mediator between God and men.”
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” 1 Timothy 2:1-6
This is biblical authority and command – to at least pray for those in authority, to submit to them, to recognize them as being from God Himself and ordained by Him for His all-wise purposes. Pray and thank God for civil authority – These are divine commands. In my opinion, it’s not a sin to be involved with the civil process such as in voting, etc. We are not under the same government structure as were Jesus and His apostles. They had no say-so. It’s an individual liberty afforded by God and people shouldn’t be judged for doing so or not doing so because it’s a non-essential (Romans 14). To say it’s a sin as do some, seems to be coming from a novice perspective. Being involved in the civil process by prayer and otherwise, should not take away from the preaching of the Word, the Great Commission Jesus gave us (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20, etc.). One writer notes:
“God ordained (allowed) civil government for the old creation as a necessary evil/stop-gap measure to maintain order.”
Civil government, governors, civil servants are “sent by him” but to do what? – “for the punishment of evildoers” and what else?:
“Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:13-14
God’s people are to pray according to His will which is His Word – “for the punishment of evildoers” in the country they are in. Also, civil authorities are ordained of God to “praise them that do well.”
Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:13-14
Civil government ceases to be sanctioned by God when it begins punishing instead of praising “them that do well.” Read that passage above again, real slow, carefully.
Let’s sum up what God ordained civil government to do:
They are “sent by him for the …
“punishment of evildoers, and”
“ for the praise of them that do well. “
DEFUND THE POLICE IS AGAINST THE WORD OF GOD
We see here how those who “do well” “praise” the God-given authorities, civil government agents, the police.
Notice this: Let’s read the passage again….
“for the praise of them that do well.”
“Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him (God) FOR THE PUNISHMENT OF EVILDOERS, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:13-14
So, when civil government “authorities” begin to punish “them that do well,” they are acting unlawfully and must be prosecuted as traitors.
WHEN a husband or wife orders their spouse to do something sinful, the child of God will refuse to do it. With the same principle in mind, namely civil disobedience, WHEN the government tells the child of God to do something that is not biblical, the disciple of Jesus will not obey which we see with the apostles (Acts 4:23-31). Get a clue. Some people have been deceived, intentionally misled by the 501(C)(3) Savior-rejecting, state-controlled frauds, to believe that any and everything the civil government orders them to do they must obey. Silly. Gullible. Stupid. Ungodly, Un-biblical. Repent. Isn’t that what the Germans did? – they obey hitler’s civil government orders which began softly, subtly, which led to 6 million murdered Jews?
AND, these unlawful orders such as a mask “mandate” is a laughable fraud that cowards have obeyed.
“Do not comply. Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego did not comply. Along with the apostles when they were told to quit preaching the Gospel.” Karen Cochran
WARNING TO COPS, SHERIFFS, JUDGES, CLERKS OF COURT, AND ATTORNEYS WHO CARRY OUT UNLAWFUL ORDERS (such as closing business, mask “mandates”, etc.)…. There’s no justifying their cowardly, traitorous actions, period. They are violating the RIGHTS of the people by obeying unlawful orders after they swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution and to protect WE THE PEOPLE from government tyrants who would dare make unlawful orders which contradict Constitutional law. Read the 1st Amendment. Those who do such are traitors. They can and should be held liable, by name, in their individual and official capacities in Federal court. Under the color of law they are breaking their oath of office as they perpetrate, carry out tyranny and should be held accountable. Then this stuff will stop. The cowardly German people are the exact people to blame for complying with Hitler’s playbook, from the beginning when he began with more minor dictates and then escalated to the murder of 6 millions Jews (masks, lock downs, vaccinations, etc).
Christians are to Participate
It not a sin to care for, pray for, and vote in your present earthly country (2 Chronicles 7:14; Jeremiah 29:7; Romans 13; 1 Timothy 2:1-6; 1 Peter 2:13-14, etc.). It is a sin to put your earthly country before, above your heavenly citizenship (Philippians 3:18-21; Hebrews 11:10; 13:14; Revelation 21, etc.). When we truly trust the LORD, He can change the governments of men because “the most high ruleth in the kingdoms of men.” (Daniel 4:32) Let us follow Jesus and petition God in His holy name for “ALL in authority” in this nation as we are about our “father’s business,” making known the “one Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” who desires “all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” (Luke 2:49; 1 Timothy 2:1-6).
Seems to me that Satan would have people ignore the affairs of civil government and let Satan’s agents and agenda to steal, kill, and destroy prevail. Satan clearly wants God’s people to NOT be involved in the government so he can destroy them through the government (see all of history).
OR
He will attempt to get God’s people overly involved in government and cease putting Jesus first and obeying His Great Commission command.
1 Timothy 2:1-3, Jeremiah 29:7, Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-17, etc., speak directly of civil government which is 1 of the 3 institutions ordained by God for mankind in this present fallen world.
the Family
the Church (body of Christ)
the government (civil)
When Christ’s future reign is established in the restored earth, all enmity will be removed and predator and prey shall dwell at peace together.
“The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.” Isaiah 11:6
“The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent’s meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.” Isaiah 65:25
We are passing through, in this world temporarily and yet, God wants us protected here.
While we are commanded to pray for “all in authority,” we must remember that this is not our home. Read Revelation 21.
“FOR THE PUNISHMENT OF EVILDOERS”
“…governors (civil authorities), as unto them that are sent by him FOR THE PUNISHMENT OF EVILDOERS, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:14
Any question as to why God ordained civil authorities in this fallen world, this fallen age?
God Ordained Civil Authorities…. but for what? Please read the verse below and answer in the comments.
“Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:14
Your Answer here: _________________________________________________
We live in a fallen world. God instituted 1. the Family, 2. the Church, and 3. Civil Government. Civil government protects the people, including the family and the body of Christ.
What has GOD ordained civil authorities to do” – “for the punishment of evildoers” …. Let’s review again this central passage on the biblical doctrine of civil authorities and their purpose from God:
“Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” 1 Peter 2:13-14
When the cops are dealing with you, comply. Simple. Many are not with us today because they didn’t. Our policemen are people too and their lives matter and they have the right to defend themselves. Comply or you may die, especially if you are reaching for a weapon. If you are mistreated by civil authorities, in our nation we have Cons which makes provision for redress of grievances, or restitution for governmental wrong doing.
“Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to OBEY MAGISTRATES, to be ready to every good work,” Titus 3:1
Keep in mind that there is a proper use of force, of military, of civil authorities (Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-14). That proper function of civil authority is to punish evil doers, and to protect the citizens from foreign and domestic enemies, “evildoers”.
Mask Mandates – Masking, Muzzling the People
Romans 13 does not instruct believers to comply with tyranny. Let’s rightly divide. Excuse me, if that were the case, WHY didn’t the apostles obey the civil rulers of their day and stop preaching Jesus? (Acts 4:23-31) Not only did they not obey, they disobeyed those civil rulers and their orders as did Daniel and the 3 Hebrew children, right? Right. The apostles not only disobeyed, they cried out to God for a fresh infilling of the Holy Ghost and more boldness to do exactly what those civil rulers made illegal. Selah.
So, are you a temple of the civil government or a temple of the Holy Spirit? (1 Corinthians 3:16) Many who claim to be Christ’s seem to prove they aren’t His at all. Think: GOD made us with no muzzle and yet many professing Christians muzzle their mouths and noses, their very breathing, breath. Think. Selah. You have obeyed civil government against the creation of God. You have willingly enlisted as a slave to sinful man’s Christ-defying, unlawful orders which are telling you to do things that are plainly against the LORD.
No mask. No muzzle. No vax. No compromise. No fear!
YOU are under NO obligation to comply with any of these “mandates” which are unlawful and a joke AND you should be hoping to get ticketed or arrested. If they violate your non-negotiable RIGHTS, a federal lawsuit will name each traitor and the federal government will have to pay out restitution damages for deprivation of rights (First Amendment, 18 USC 1983 and 242, etc.).
A Constitutional RIGHT cannot be taken away unless you simply give in and give it up like a coward. RIGHTS are not privileges. Privileges can be taken away but RIGHTS cannot be.
Under a good civil ruler, the military is in better hands than than when regimes perpetuate lawlessness at home and endless wars abroad for money and other evil NWO/luciferian dealings. See why we should obey God and pray?
It’s a blessing when elected leaders have a general fear and reverence for God. No, I didn’t say they had to be a born again Christian. Yet, we should be thankful when, if we have leaders who have a great respect for God, like Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, even neither of them knew Jesus.
EVERY democrat is a wicked sinner. They hate anyone who represents law and order because they love voting to MURDER innocent babies and call it choice. Repent now sinner. The blood of these precious babies is on your evil, wicked hands before a holy God who is the Judge of your eternal soul. Hell awaits.
JUDGING CIVIL AUTHORITIES
Believers are not called to judge civil authorities as they are to judge leaders and other believers in the church. In the 1 Corinthians 5 passage below, the word “without” means outside of the church, outside the realm, the domain, the jurisdiction of the body of Christ:
“For what have I to do to judge them also that are WITHOUT? do not ye judge them that are within? 13 But them that are WITHOUT God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.” 1 Corinthians 5:12-13
With the exception of Jesus calling Herod a fox, we have very little in the way of rebukes toward civil authorities.
The way Jesus and his apostle’s dealt with false prophets was different than the way they spoke of civil authorities, Christ and His apostles openly exposed and named false teachers within the church world. Think of how Jesus lambasted the pharisees of his day in Matthew 23. How about when Paul wrote the 4 chapters of 2 Timothy and named 8 deceivers, 2 per chapter, etc.
Jesus says render unto Caesar (civil authorities) that which is Caesar’s and yet it also says that if you support a false prophet then you the be judged with them and to expose false prophets. What’s the difference? The difference is that we are not to treat civil authorities as we do bad actors posing as Christian leaders who are misleading Christ’s flock as they use His holy name in vain.
Some misuse, take out of context Romans 13. Be careful and may God bless us with His discernment. No, God’s people are not to obey any and every rule of “authority”. The saint of Christ is the temple of the Holy Spirit and not the state (1 Corinthians 3:16). We are to render to Caesar (the state) only that which belongs to Caesar and no more. “We ought to obey God rather than men.” (Acts 5:29)
It’s horrid and concerning that abortion has not ended. Keep praying saints. Ask God to grant us law and order which is His stated purpose for civil authorities (1 Timothy 2:1-3; Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-17). That law and order, as the Constitution makes clear, should punish all murder, including that within the womb (5th Amendment, 14th Amendment, etc.).

Deu 19:16 If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong; Deu 19:17 Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges, which shall be in those days; Deu 19:18 And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother; Deu 19:19 Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from among you. Deu 19:20 And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil among you.
Who said obeying God means a person has to hate anyone? Loving God is the highest priority, not pandering sinful sentiment. We must walk in His love and that is coupled with obedience to Him. Executing the will, the Word of God doesn’t mean we hate anyone. Hatred in ones heart is a personal issue one must work out before the LORD. Yet to disobey the LORD by not doing what He said, is sin.
We must study the whole counsel of God’s Word and rightly divide the Word of truth (2 Tim 2:15). GOD ordained civil authorities to judge evil doers. Read Rom 13 and 1 Peter 2:13-17
