There’s only one Book whose Author is God. Only God knows the future – and His foretelling of the future in the Bible clearly proves it’s His Book.
Law of probability and the fulfillment of Bible prophecies:
Odds of the more than 300 prophecies of the prophets concerning the coming Messiah, given hundreds of years prior to His arrival coming true are:
8,749,002,899,132,046,697,490,008,908,470,485,461,412,622,723,572,849,745,…
703,082,425,425,639,811,996,797,503,692,894,052,708,092,215,296 to 1
Fact: Only the Almighty could know the future and forthtell it in specific detail, long before it ever happened. THIS is how we know that the Bible is truly the Word of the one true God and that all other so-called “holy books” are frauds.
“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31
The facts stated, demonstrated in this message will cause the wise to put God’s written Word as the final divine authority of their lives. He said it. I believe it. That settles it.
“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psalms 119:89
Of the words of God, the Bible assures us that “no one of these shall fail …” (Isaiah 34:16). We know that no promise or prophecy in Scripture has ever failed to come to pass, with the exception of the fulfillment of those which lie just ahead in this last hour as we anticipate the soon return of Christ and the setting up of His kingdom (Revelation 19:11-16, etc.).
“My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.” Psalms 89:34
FULFILLED PROPHECY: THIS IS HOW WE KNOW WITHOUT QUESTION, THAT THE BIBLE IS THE ONLY HOLY BOOK ON GOD’S EARTH
God told us “the end from the beginning” – He foretold what was coming – and this is why His people have the news before the news! (Isaiah 46:9-10)
This is an essential component of divine truth imperative for a sound foundation in Christ’s kingdom truth.
“Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: BEFORE they spring forth I tell you of them.” Isaiah 42:9
The Bible is God’s Word and therefore penned by divine inspiration (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:19-21). It is “the news before the news.” Only the Almighty could have foretold, told before it happened, the future things (Isaiah 46:9-10). This is how we know with no doubt that the Bible is the only Holy Book on His planet. Only God Himself could know the future and tell what would happen before it happened.
Read Matthew 24 and Luke 21. Then read the book of Revelation. This is the only way to see into the future and be prepared.
“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, 10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” Isaiah 46:9-10
WHO could possibly declare “the end from the beginning” other than God Himself?
The Bible is unique among all supposed “holy” books. God’s Word, the Word He gave, foretells the END from the BEGINNING. It foretells what it fulfills. No other supposed Holy book can stake this claim.
ONLY GOD COULD KNOW “THE END FROM THE BEGINNING” (ISAIAH 46:9-10).
“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, 10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” Isaiah 46:9-10
Did you catch that? Read it again.
MEDITATE ON THIS. THE BIBLE IS THE VERY WORD OF GOD AND IS SEEN TO BE JUST THAT BECAUSE IT FORETOLD IN DETAIL BEFOREHAND MANY EVENTS THAT HAVE COME TO PASS JUST AS THEY WERE SPOKEN HUNDREDS AND SOMETIMES THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE THEY HAPPENED. FOR EXAMPLE: THE EXACT TOWN THE MESSIAH WAS TO BE BORN IN (BETHLEHEM) WAS FORETOLD AND HE WAS (MICAH 5:2), THAT HE WOULD BE MIRACULOUSLY BORN OF A VIRGIN AND HE WAS (ISAIAH 7:14), THAT HE WOULD BE CALLED EMMANUEL AND HE WAS AND IS (ISAIAH 7:14), THAT HE WOULD BE BETRAYED FOR 30 PIECES OF SILVER AND HE WAS (ZECHARIAH 11:12-13), …. MORE ON THE CHART BELOW.
The LORD told us in His Word that not one of His promises, including the prophecies of His and our Messiah, would ever fail. They are as sure as life and the One who gave it.
“Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail …” Isaiah 34:16
Only God could and does know and has told the end from the beginning and not one of His promises or prophetic utterances of future events, of the future, has nor will ever fail.
No other “holy book” can make this claim. Only the Bible foretells the future in exact detail and fulfillment. On this basis, we know that every other so-called “holy book” is not holy but rather fraudulent, from the enemy of God himself.
“No other book but the Bible has prophecy. Prophecy is something God said He will do for Israel and it happened hundreds and thousands of years later. The Bible proved itself over time that it is God’s Word. The Quran, or Tibetan book or writings of Confucius have no prophecy like the Hebrew Scriptures. Put your faith in the only trusted Book of the ages and the God who gave it to us. Jesus said heaven and earth will pass away but my word will never pass away but will last forever.”Terrence Przybylski
The specific details of THESE PROPHETIC PROMISES AND THEIR FULFILLMENT WOULD BE STATISTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE UNLESS THEY ORIGINATED FROM GOD WHO TELLS THE END FROM THE BEGINNING.
Recently a college student asked if Matthew’s Gospel was written merely from his own psyche. No. Matthew wasn’t manufacturing anything in his psyche. He was taking from the prophets, which told us 700 years earlier that the Messiah would be born of a virgin in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2). Only the Almighty knows “the end from the beginning” and this is how we know that the Bible is the only Holy Book on HIS planet. No other so-called “holy book” has prophecy with the fulfillment of those prophecies. This is how we know that the words of Holy Scripture came from our Maker, the LORD. No other “holy” book can make this claim. The Bible is God’s Word.
Prophecy: Birth of the Christ foretold:
“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Isaiah 7:14
Fulfillment:
“Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” Matthew 1:22-23

Please pour prayerfully over the list of these prophecies and their fulfillment and please help others to know this amazing, divine phenomenon. This will be the most foundation-building study of your whole life. This is essential in being truly grounded in Christ.

Do You Understand the Gospel? Bad news is that we have “ALL sinned” (Romans 3), are fully guilty, and the Good news…..1 Corinthians 15:1-4. That seems to be a good place to begin. Jesus Christ died, was buried, and raised again “for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:2; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4). That’s the Gospel! Our heavenly Father reconciled us back to Himself, out of a life of sin, through the precious blood of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ! “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed […]
The Rich Benefits of Communion - "The Lord's Supper"
“…The Lord’s supper.” 1 Corinthians 11:20 Many agree that the LORD seems to have given His New Testament church two ordinances…perhaps a third. An ordinance is a point of contact or physical enactment with a spiritual truth, reality. These are for born again believers and NOT in an attempt to become a Christian but only for those already born again into Christ. First, you must be born again: 1. Water baptism – to depict our own death, burial, and resurrection with Christ, and 2. Communion – where we are brought into remembrance of our LORD’s death – broken body and […]
The Essential Doctrine of the Virgin Birth of Christ [podcast]
“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” John 1:14 “Begotten” means “to father” WHY does the King James Bible use the word “begotten” when informing us of the Messiah? (John 1:14, 18; 3:16; Hebrews 11:17; 1 John 4:9) Firstly, the translators faithfully translated as the LORD ordained and oversaw and guided such. Secondly, the arch enemy of Christ, Satan, has been hard at work through evil men to steal the testimony and the glory due to the […]
Jesus Christ is God
The Divinity of Jesus Christ WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS CONCERNING JESUS CHRIST AS GOD ALMIGHTY: (Note: this is not an exhaustive look at the divinity of Jesus Christ. Also, note that some of the particular words that announce His divinity are underlined). “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel (means God with us).” Isaiah 7:14 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given (He already existed as God-with no beginning or end): and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and […]
How do We Know Who is “of God” and Who is “Not of God”? [podcast]
Scripture vs Subjectivity/Human Reasoning
“Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”Colossians 2:8
There are many people pretending to be representing Christ. Many pretend to speak for God but how do we know who is truly “of God” and who is “not of God”? Jesus gave us the answer to this important question because He desires His people to be protected by proper discernment. He has warned us repeatedly to “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know(discern) them by their fruits. … And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many” (Matthew 7:15-16, 24:11).
Jesus says to use that we shall “know” (discern) others “by their fruits.” (Matthew 7:16, 20)
“You’re taking things out of context” is what unrepentant heretics throw at you when you state the Word. And they say “rightly divide the word of truth,” using it out of context for their own self-serving agenda because they don’t like what the plain truth of God states in His written Word. They are clearly “not of God” according to Christ who also said “by their fruits” we are to “know”(discern) others (Matthew 7:16, 20).
Here’s the clear proof that most of the “church” is not Christ’s church, not His people at all. They falsely claim to be, as did the Jews of Jesus’ day. Memorize John 8:47 – who is “of God” and who is “NOT of God.”
“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47
Simply put: We know who is truly “of God” and who is “NOT of God” by how they treat God’s Word.
True Heaven bound disciples of Jesus follow God according to the Bible (Psalms 119:105). All others follow a false god they concocted in their own deceived imagination (John 8:47).
One of the examples in this late hour of those who pose a threat to believers is the New Apostolic Reformation movement which has produced and sent forth an army of false prophets. Their false insinuations and claims include that their prophetic words, visions, apostles, prophets, and prophecies are equal to the divine authority of Holy Scripture. More on the New Apostolic Reformation Cult and its false teachings and false prophets is here.
When you or I or any other mere human claims to be hearing from the Holy Spirit, such is purely subjective and must be tested against the Holy Scriptures (1 Corinthians 2:13; 1 John 4:1, etc.). THAT’s WHY we have the written Word – to protect us from being misled from the “MANY false prophets” who are deceiving “MANY” as Jesus forewarned would be the case (Matthew 24:11). Final divine authority is the written Word, not some mere sinful man or woman posing as God’s voice.
The LORD gave us His Word in order that we could know Him who is “the truth” and not be “led away(from God)with the error of the wicked” by following “cunningly devised fables” (John 14:6; 2 Peter 1:16; 3:17).
2 Peter 1:16-21
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
19 We have also a MORE SURE WORD of prophecy(the written Word); whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
The Word of God is sure and steadfast as is its Author who is eternally perfect and unchanging in His divine nature. Our faith is not based on mere fables or stories, but rather on the Word of the very One who created and sustains all life in His vast Universe (Colossians 1:16-17).
“The apostasy is here. Everyone is a Christian until it gets biblical.” F.
You wanna know who is really “of God” and who is “NOT of God”? John 8:47 – memory truth.
“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47
Every person who is “of God” has their conscience captive to His Word. Any person who is casual about God’s Word instead of fervently attentive, is “not of God.” When the true follower of Jesus hears Scripture, they hearken, are comforted, corrected, edified, etc. They love God and therefore change to conform to the Word. His words are the highest authority of their lives.
Is God’s Word your final authority or not?
IF God’s WRITTEN Word is not the final authority of your personal life, we have nothing in common – you are not saved. Jesus says you are “NOT of God” (John 8:47).
LOTS of biblically-illiterate guys hanging out on social media arguing using subjectivity, lies, and false notions when they should be diligently studying and speaking only the Word. The problem is not only “lack of knowledge” but also the pride that underlies their refusal to be teachable (Hosea 4:6).
The godly man will own the truth – he will surrender and allow it to own him – even when it is correcting him (Proverbs 1:5; 15:32; Romans 3:4; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.).
IF you refuse to allow God’s Word to correct you, you are “not of God” (John 8:47).
The righteous declare with Christ’s apostle Paul to “Let God be true and EVERY man a liar” (Romans 3:4).
IF you don’t love God enough to voraciously study His Word, you do not love Him!
“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12
We know who is truly “of God” by their resolved, unwavering love for God’s Word.
Those who preach the Word of God continue sending a whole slew of ungodly men packing! These ungodly men who vainly believe they are of God, prove their rebellion by their refusal to be corrected by God’s Word (Romans 3:4; Matthew 7:6; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Titus 3:10-11; 2 John 7-11).
“And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Timothy 3:15-17
IF it is discovered that God’s written Word is not your absolute final divine authority, you will be rebuked and sent packing if you don’t repent. You are “NOT of God” (John 8:47). Time to clean house! Time to flip the tables of the hypocrites.
The only way to be rooted and grounded in Christ is to be an ardent student of His Word. There are no shortcuts and all who are not rich in His Word will be misled for not loving Jesus enough to prayerfully, daily pour over, learn, apply, and walk in His Word.
“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:6-10
We are “complete in Christ” and Christ is revealed to us in His Word (John 5:39-40, etc.).
IF you are living by human reasoning instead of strictly by God’s written Word, you are a lost soul in need of repentance. Repent now and when you do, the proof will be that God’s Word will become the authority of your life (John 8:47). Those who truly repent are in Christ and live by His Word and nothing else.
There are so very many people today acting like they know Jesus while His Word is not the final divine authority of their lives – which clearly proves they have either never repented or have since backslidden and are lost!
“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
Satan is able to master the lives of those who “received not the love of the truth. … for this cause God shall send them strong delusion.”
Not getting into God’s Word will cost us everything. Those who do not love God’s Word, clearly prove they do not love Him.
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” Hosea 4:6
Many modern “pastors” are little more than those who entertain goats/counterfeits and we know this because they are not fervent but rather casual about the Holy Scriptures and most of them use fake “bibles.”
“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4
Jesus told Peter to feed his sheep (John 21:15-17). Christ never instructed Peter or anyone else to merely hold church services. Of course believers are to gather and yet, when we gather, what’s most important is feasting on God’s word (Nehemiah 8:8; Acts 2:42, etc.). Instead though, today most gatherings called “church” are little more than an hour of empty entertainment, void of the fear, the holiness, and the Word of God.
“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly(abundantly)in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16
Hireling wolves aren’t getting people into the Word for themselves because they want people to need, to depend upon THEM instead of God so they can build their own brand, church, club! They are using people, building a busine$$ on the gullibility of their prey! (John 21:15-17; 2 Timothy 2:15; 4:2-4; 1 Peter 4:11).
Sink or swim! Get into God’s Word daily for yourself and stop trusting entirely on your Sunday morning gathering – which if you attend such, should be just one of many times you are fellowshiping with God and His people in a week’s time frame and not an end in itself -which inevitably it becomes!
After Pentecost, the birth of the New Testament church, the earliest believers are seen in temples (Jewish church buildings) for a time. They are also seen fellowshiping “house to house.”
“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine (the Word)and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” Acts 2:42-47
Jesus told Peter to “feed my sheep” (John 21:15-17). Perhaps more like “Go feed them” as Jesus and His apostle did. They went to the people (Matthew 9:35-38; Acts 1:8; 8:4; 10:38, etc.), and not “Go get them to come to you for their weekly entertainment and so you can fleece them with your church membership program and system you’ve set up to catch unsuspecting souls.” Gathering together is God’s will and yet, being corralled to be preyed upon is something about which we see warnings throughout God’s Word.
Corralling and entrapping unsuspecting souls is one of the schemes, devices used by beguilers. In my opinion, this is what the apostate modern church world has become – a baited trap, a stage performed on by pied pipers who use music, bands, and story-telling to seek to capture, to ensnare souls.
“For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men. 27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.” Jeremiah 5:27-28
Those who allow themselves to become indoctrinated and ensnared in this system become “twofold more the child of hell” and continue this campaign of evil for generations (Matthew 23:15).
“And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. 3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. 4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:2-4
PRAYER: Holy Father in Heaven, I come to You now solely on the basis of Christ’s perfect sacrifice for my sins. Please forgive my sin of self-idolatry and spiritual adultery where I have not put You first but had other false gods before You. In this very instant, right now, I repent. I turn back to You dear Jesus and ask You to wash my sins afresh in Your precious blood. I love You LORD Jesus and from this moment forward, I am relishing, worshiping, loving, obeying, and seeking Your holy face relentlessly. Please fill me afresh with Your Holy Spirit and use me dear LORD. Also, please give me the deep desire for more of You and for a photographic memory of Your words. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Beware of the Scripture Twisting Jezebels [podcast]
The name Jezebel is spelled in Hebrew as “LYZEBEL” and it means “Baal exalts, un-husbanded one, without cohabitation and unchaste.” This spirit hates authority, despises correction, hates being subjected to authority and loves attention. Some today attempt to use the following passage to justify women being elders, overseers in the body of Christ. “And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on […]

Doctrine, Correction, Reproof, Instruction in Righteousness 2 Timothy 2:15; 3:15-17 ARE you learning sound “doctrine”? Are you being corrected by the LORD? Are you being reproved by Jesus? Are you being instructed in Christ’s “righteousness”? RED FLAG: You attend a “church” and yet aren’t searching, diligently and daily digging into, devouring, and memorizing God’s Word daily. Backslidden! Under the bless-ed weight of the true original Gospel, men are convicted, broken, and crushed to repentance! (Matthew 21:44; 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2:4; 2 Corinthians 4:20; James 4:8-10, etc.) WHEN a minister’s message is all about encouragement, prosperity in this fleeting life, […]
Why Did God Give Us His Word? [podcast]
The 4 Pillar Purposes for the Holy Scriptures There are 4 reasons detailed in 2 Timothy 3:16 for the Holy Scriptures being given to us by God. Under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, the apostle Paul wrote: “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” 2 Timothy 3:16 According to this verse, the Bible, God’s very Word, has been given to the people of God for 4 reasons: Doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness. Let us take a brief look at these 4 reasons for […]

Effeminacy in Males Condemned – God Commands Men to be Masculine
“Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit (act) you like men, be strong.” 1 Corinthians 16:13
No solace for sodomites: Dear sodomite sinner: True disciples of Jesus Christ will absolutely not celebrate your abomination, your effeminate ways, your evil, your sin. Condoning any person in their sin makes you just as guilty of that sinner in the eyes of a holy God (Proverbs 17:15; 27:5-6; 2 John 10-11, etc.).
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor EFFEMINATE, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
AFTER POSTING ABOUT MEN NEEDING TO DEFEND AND PROTECT THE WEAK, ONE MAN ASKED “WHAT WORLD OR YOU LIVING IN?”
REPLY:
Are you born again? If not you are living in the world of death, darkness and Satan (John 8:44; 10:10, etc.).
Effeminacy in Males Condemned – God Commands Men to be Masculine
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor EFFEMINATE, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
What kind of gutless coward, pansy sits there when women, children, the elderly, the weak are being attacked?
“Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit (act) you like men, be strong.” 1 Corinthians 16:13
Anyone with homo lust in them, with an attraction to the same sex, is in sin, in a state of sin and separated from God. This is not only weird, it’s wicked.
HAVE to actually commit the act to be guilty? NO!!!! Read God’s Word closely and secure this verse of truth in your memory.
“But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” Matthew 5:28
God looks upon the hearts of men and if a person burns in lust toward the same sex, such a person is a pervert, a person living in sin.
“the LORD looketh on the heart.”
If it’s in our hearts, harbored or burning, God counts it as sin, no different than doing it (Matthew 5:28; James 1:13-15). Memorize: “But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)
Anyone with homo lust in them, with an attraction to the same sex, is in sin, in a state of sin and separated from God. This is not only weird, it’s wicked.
The LORD is greater than any sin, anything that presently plagues us. He requires honesty, repentance, and full confession of sin (Hosea 10:12; 14:1-2; 2 Corinthians 9:9-10; 1 John 1:9, etc.). | Fresh Start with God
A man who is “effeminate” is defined as a man who is acting like a woman. It is the perversion of the creative order of our Creator.
Bible Verses Related to Effeminate Men:
Deuteronomy 22:5–The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.
Leviticus 20:13– If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
1 Timothy 1:9-11– Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind(sodomites, homosexuals), for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
Sinful man, though he tries in utter futility, cannot, and will not ever change what God says – His coming judgment on all of the unrepentant who refused to come to Him through Christ for salvation.
“the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God” and who does Paul name as “the unrighteous”? “Effeminate.”
1 Corinthians 6:9-10– Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind (sodomites), 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Genesis 19:1-38– And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground; (Read Genesis 19.)
1 Timothy 1:10– For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind(sodomites, homosexuals), for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
Hebrews 13:4 – Marriage (one man, one woman) ishonourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
Leviticus 18:22– Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
Romans 1:26-27– For this cause God gave them up unto VILE AFFECTIONS affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is AGAINST NATURE: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, BURNED IN THEIR LUST ONE TOWARD ANOTHER; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
“Claiming to be gay, is a claim that they are indeed attracted to the same sex and have mulled those thoughts over well enough to don the title in their hearts.Intentions are everything whether in thought or acted out. One cannot serve two masters.” Unknown
Ezekiel 16:49 – Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
Recently I heard a popular youtube “apologist” tell the crowd that having a same sex attraction is not sin. False.
“evil concupiscence” = secret desire for that which is forbidden by God.
Colossians 3:5– Mortify (crucify) therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection(homosexual attraction), evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
The soul damning sin here called “evil concupiscence” is having a secret sinful desire for that which God calls sin. Such is the case for anyone with a so-called “same sex attraction.” Such a person is a prevent in need of repentance before it’s too late.
Romans 12:2– 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.
Mark 10:6– But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
Proverbs 31:3– Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
There will be no homos in Heaven!
“There is no such thing as a ‘gay’ Christian just as there is no such thing as an adulterous Christian. There are ex- ‘gay’ Christians or ex-adulterous Christians however. Identifying as ‘gay’ and Christian is a SATANIC doctrine, the work of devils.It’s so clear to see that this is a Satanic move to normalize sodomy in the Church just as it’s already been in the world as of late.60 years ago open sodomy wasn’t even accepted in the world as much as it’s now being accepted in the Church.People wonder why our land is cursed more and more every day!This is just all so disgusting.” CJ
More Proof that Universalism is Running Rampant
MESSAGE RECEIVED FROM A SIN-JUSTIFYING FLAMER:
“Wow!! You are so wrong Todd! If they are homosexual, then they won’t remain that way! Who are you to stand in judgment like that? God loves everyone including the homosexual. He is changing hearts. He hates sin, but He loves everyone! I am saved Todd! I have the mind of Christ! I know the truth! Don’t let the devil use you like this. I pray for you, that God will open your eyes and heart to what is happening in these final hours. I like how you use the Word of God. Its sad that you twist it to fit your own agenda. ‘Above all things have fervent love for one another, for love will cover a multitude of sins.’ 1Peter 4:8 Love is the activator of everything in the kingdom of God. You have a religious heart just like the Pharisees. Why don’t you pray about it?”
REPLY:
You are openly ignoring that God is “Holy, holy, holy” and yet it never says He is love, love love…. Twice it says He is “Holy, holy, holy.”
“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13
You are teaching universalism which says that God is love and therefore will in the end save every man, all men into Heaven. Heresy. God is going to damn most men.
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” Matthew 7:13-14
Those who try instead of dying (to self) will lose all. Trying is not good enough when God gave us full access to His divine ability through the redemption provided by His only begotten Son. It’s only those who are “willing AND obedient” who will be saved into glory.
“If ye be WILLING AND OBEDIENT, ye shall eat the good of the land: 20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.” Isaiah 1:19-20
So you are assuming that there can be a saved homosexual? Not (2 Corinthians 5:17-18). And such is the case here with Asbury. We are dealing with people who are openly, publicly, defiantly effeminate and burning in abominable lust (Romans 1:26-27). They are advertising and promoting this “abomination” of homosexuality lust, inordinate and vile affection for the world to see which means there is no true repentance. True repentance, 100% of the time, brings forth a changed life, a set apart life, a holy life.
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:” Hebrews 12:14
You speak in respect to honoring men while you despise God as you pander to sin instead of the Savior.
“Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.” Matthew 16:23
Jesus makes it clear here that those who savor the things of men over the things of God are an offence to the LORD.
Let’s let God’s Word define what repentance looks like. When a person is truly “in Christ” which requires real repentance, there is a life that is changed.
“Therefore IF ANY MAN be in Christ, HE IS A NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;” 2 Corinthians 5:17-18
Any person not overcoming sin proves they love self and sin more than the Savior. Read 1 John 3 and Romans 6. If Jesus were truly their “first love” they’d do what pleases Him, not self.
“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” Romans 6:16
God is love and God is holy. He will love all rebels all the way into hell if they choose not to truly repent which will result in bringing forth fruit meet (fitting for, demonstrating) repentance (Matthew 3:7-10).
“Lie not against the truth.” James 3:14
WHO left you in charge? Since when do YOU think that YOU decide what is right and wrong? Since when do any of us decide what God says is sin and what He is going to do to all who die in sin? WHO do you think you are?
God is God, not you. The LORD says He is going to damn every effeminate man and homo to hell…. and you simply don’t care – because obviously you are full of self and could care less about anyone except yourself. God is “Holy, holy, holy” and unchanging, and sin separates men from Him – which ultimately means hell (Romans 6:23). We have no clue of the truth if we think God is going to overlook sin. Every time sin arose in His presence He vanquished it. Adam and Eve committed one sin and were rejected from His holy presence. Same with Lucifer and the angels. God is calling you to repent before it’s too late. You are bearing false witness against the Almighty and are under divine condemnation.
“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.” Exodus 20:16
1 John 3
And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 6 Whosoever abideth (remains) in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. 7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. 1 John 3:5-10

EXPOSING THE GATEWAY SINS TO SODOM’S DESTRUCTION Sodom’s sins were pride, gluttony, and laziness, while the poor and needy suffered outside her door.

Sodomy is Sin [podcast]
The LORD made an example out of the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah Here’s what led up to the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. WHERE do you think the town of SODOMy got its name? When the perverts of the city wanted to have carnal knowledge with the angels God says they attempted to do “wickedly.” “But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: 5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are […]

“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels … And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” Matthew 25:40, 46 Homosexuality is not part of God’s plan. It’s an “abomination” to Him, a perversion of His plan, a cheap substitute, and an attack against Him. Homosexuality, sodomy, lesbianism is NOT under grace – Never has been, never will be. God doesn’t bless or justify what He calls an abomination (Leviticus 18:22; Romans 1). Repent now sinner […]

If they don’t repent, they must be turned over to Satan, removed (1 Corinthians 5). Regrettably perhaps less than 5% of church gatherings today are led by true men of God. Wolves abound just as was foretold (Matthew 7:15; 24:11; 2 Timothy 3:13; 1 John […]
Jesus Calling Devotional Exposed: 10 Things You Might Not Know
“I know so many who are so deceived by this book!! The author is a woman and she makes Jesus sound like your boyfriend who is so in love with you he can’t bare a minute without you! It is sickening! Plus she says the Bible was not enough for her. She needed more. This author died and if she did repent of her blasphemy against a holy God she is burning in hell as we speak. There are not two Jesus’s! This book presents a weak, tolerant of all your sin, pathetic, spineless ‘Jesus.’ This false ‘Jesus’ just sits in heaven google-eyed over you and how much He can’t live one minute without you in His presence! This is opposite of the fierce Christ who calls out sin and hypocrisy, who took a whip to the money changers and flipped over tables in righteous anger! Mathew 23 shows us some of the most severe rebukes in all the New Testament. This is the Jesus true disciples chose to follow! May this new documentary open the eyes of many so-called Christians to how demonic and evil this book is.” Karen Cochran
BEWARE of the Jesus Calling devotional book which is written by a full blown heretic, Sarah Young. This book continually assures things to lost souls (catholics, etc.) reserved only for the true Christian. It promises salvation, assurance, grace, mercy, the glory of God, etc to lost hell bound idolatrous sinners. Like antichrist Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life book, Jesus Calling never calls sinners to repent which is a Gospel essential and without which God will never save any soul from sin and hell (Luke 13:3, 5). You will never hear Jesus’ born again commanded or command to repent in this heretical devotional book title Jesus Calling. This monstrosity simply confirms sinners in their sin, sealing their doom in the lake of fire (Jeremiah 23:17; Lamentations 2:14, etc.).
Sarah Young is just another self-willed false prophet who does “ministry” her way, not God’s, in order to sell books and to mislead eternal souls into eternal damnation.
The blessings of God in Christ’s salvation are reserved only for those born again “in Christ,” and never for hell bound religious idolaters (John 15:7; 2 Corinthians 1:20; 2 Peter 1:1-4, etc.).
Stacy Strother writes:
“Her subtly, deceptive, doctrinally corrupt fairy tale version of what she calls bible studies for all the different ages of people, including children’s bible studies, teen and other, are found in the book stores—shelves filled full.
She is deceived, a false witness, False bible teacher, and has not heard from our Jesus—the Christ, Son of the living God, of which, is the very Word of God.
She hears from demons. Period! She needs to REPENT, and be born again! Please Lord Jesus, help her see her own demise!”
