The Doctrine of Jezebel:
The Curse of Feminism
“And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.” Ecclesiastes 7:26
In this rebellion against the Creator, His purpose for creating the woman is defied. So, all participating persons are turned over to “strong delusion” for not loving and obeying the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12). So, they become captive to evil spirits which make their lives all about seduction and manipulation.
Jezebels prey on weak men (Ahab’s), men are aren’t lovers of the truth. They migrate to these moral cowards who they can control and manipulate and use for their own self-serving purposes. They hate men who are truly strong in the LORD (Elijah’s), men who see them for who they are.
Men who are in the cross, living the crucified life, will always manifest jezebels and heretics! Bam. Jesus says to “Rejoice.” (Matthew 5:10-12)
Only ahabs – spineless moral cowards who refuse to stand on God’s Word – escape to scorn of jezebel
“While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.” 2 Peter 2:19
In 2 Peter 2, we read of the “false teachers” and “false prophets” the apostle Peter warns us about. They are said to possess the characteristic of promising freedom while leading into bondage – and this all begins when a person is “overcome” by a lie or something contrary to what the truth is, as revealed by the LORD in His Word.
The Jezebel woman is simply the woman who disregards what her very Maker and the Judge of her eternal soul says He desires and requires her to be as a member of the feminine gender. As he did in the Garden, Satan specifically targets the woman and namely the Christian woman. He is in the church world, breathing his strange fire into the very “sanctuary” that is supposed to be a bastion for what is upright and correct in the eyes of God (Psalms 74:4, 7; 1 Peter 5:8; Revelation 12:12, etc.). The church world is full of this type of woman who is not fulfilling God’s non-negotiable calling.on her life.
THE WICKED daughters of the enemy of all souls are following in the footsteps of Jezebel of old who operated in brazen rebellion to the LORD while being the wife of Israel’s king (Ahab). Many men today have followed the wicked ways of Jezebel’s husband, Ahab (2 Kings 9). The women rebel and so do the men who lust after them – whoremongers. Beloved, “Be not ye therefore partakers with them.” (Ephesians 5:7) “Whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” (Hebrews 13:4) Satan’s doctrine to “liberate” women from God’s original and clear role for her is no new thing. “There is NO new thing under the sun.” (Ecclesiastes 1:9)
Satan wants to convince the woman that there’s a better way than God’s way and purpose. We must return to our God and His purpose for your lives (Hosea 14:1-3). Jesus told us that Satan is the thief who wants to steal the divine purpose of the LORD from us.
“The thief (the devil) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10
The one whom Jesus told us has come “to steal, to kill, and to destroy” has and is ruining the lives of millions upon millions of ladies and their victims (John 10:10; Revelation 2:20-23).
WE continue to see women daring to call themselves by the titles of apostles, prophets, and pastors. This could not be more unbiblical. Firstly, these are functions from God for men only and are not titles to use to glorify self (Ephesians 4:8-12; 1 Timothy 2:12). No, these are places of humble servitude for Christ’s glory alone (Matthew 20:20-28; 23:8-12; 1 Peter 4:10-11). Against the clear counsel of Christ, you also see spineless men and misled people allowing this without rebuking/correcting it (Revelation 2:20-23).
The thief is doing this by diverting both men and women from the original design of our Maker, the Judge of our eternal souls. In fact, in this late hour, there are so many women who claim to be Christians who have no joy or peace, fruit produced without fail in all who truly know and abide humbly in Christ (Galatians 5:22-23). They are no different than the lost women of this sinful world and it’s obvious in that they are empty – unfulfilled because they have erred from God’s original and still standing role for them as servant wives and mothers. Any woman not walking in our Creator’s purpose is and will always be miserable unless she repents, puts her faith in Christ and walks according to His stated purpose for her as a woman. No career, no amount of money, or any other counterfeit carrot is going to cure/solve her misery. Only the LORD can do that and He sure will for all who repent and return to Him. The greatest tragedy is that simple truth such as this is never addressed in the modern, apostate church world which is run by beguiling, self-serving wolves who have no godly fear or intestinal fortitude to set things in biblical order (Philippians 3:18-19). So, they suffer Jezebel (Revelation 2:20-24).
The LORD be praised for His God-fearing men and women who serve Him in sincerity and in truth! (1 Timothy 2:9-15; Titus 2:1-5; 1 Peter 3:1-7) They honor His Word and what it states of the divine purpose and order of the man, woman, family, and church.
One sister writes:
“The Jezebel spirit is out to destroy the work of God in the church and the home. Titus 1:11 warns us that there will be those who subvert houses, both church houses and households. This word subvert in the Strong’s Concordance (S.C.) (396 Gk.) means to overturn, overthrow. Overturn in the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary (MWCD) means to cause to turn over: UPSET, invalidate, destroy and reverse the Word of God, Godly teachings, and the vision of the Lord for the ministry and household. Overthrow in the (MWCD) means to cause the downfall of: Bring down, defeat the ministry and her household with her perverted way of thinking, her wrong mindset, and her teachings.” C.
Bonnie R. Hutchins notes:
“Too many women are too hungry for a woman to follow after. They will elevate the woman above the Truth of God, and He will never share His Glory. Beware the Jezebel spirit~ Often women will listen to a she-wolf simply because they are too offended to learn from the godly, biblical teaching of men. They are easy prey for the female false prophet who is seeking to devour them. Flee from evil! ~In Jesus name!”
The woman who is possessed by this evil spirit is one who insists upon fighting for her “right” to usurp the places in the family and the church that her Maker designed for men (males) alone to fulfill. Jezebel views men as her enemy due to her own victimization by a mere man or men (some actual and some perceived). She now lives her life fighting for a futile cause while claiming to be serving the very one who said “But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” (1 Timothy 2:12) While she believes that men are her enemy, it’s actually her master Satan who is her enemy. While she vainly imagines that she is fighting for what is right, she will soon be judged by the One who sees her as a rebel to Him and His order.
“The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.” Titus 2:3-5
Jezebel is the opposite of a “keeper(s) at home.” (Titus 2:5) She is a false accuser, teaches bad, not good things, refuses to love or respect her husband and her children by teaching them what is right, is not discreet, chaste, a keeper of the home, or obedient to her husband. Instead of keeping the home, Jezebel is busy being sinful, rebellious, loud, boisterous (outspoken), and stirring up trouble in the world, the church, and the family. Modern Jezebels have no desire or time to do what God called them to be and do. They are too busy marching, raising money, and fighting for women’s breasts (“cures” for cancer), women’s rights, animal rights, and planned murderhood (Susan G. Komen).
Exposing Jezebel’s agenda by living right, speaking out against Satan’s lies, or by disagreeing with her will land you on the list! And, if you are on that list, you should count it all joy and wear it as a badge of honor that the LORD’s agenda you are living is diametrically opposed to Satan’s agenda which is the Jezebel agenda.
WHILE calling others “feminists haters,” these same feminists, modern Jezebels, condemn other women who disagree with them – so, by their own definition, they are haters of women and abusers! Hypocrites is the more fitting term for such who are Satan’s children.
ANY person who dares to disagree with the evil doctrines of the modern Jezebels, is on their hit list. Well, if you are a person of truth, honoring the God who made men and women, then you have spoken truth and may be glad to know that you too are on Jezebel’s Hit List! Rejoice!
Assaulted by a “Worship” Leader with Brass Knuckles!
Testimony of Laureen H.:
“Every part of this poem (below) is the epitome of what I have been raising my daughters to be and am raising my son to look for in a future wife. This quote and my living this has for years placed me on the feminist hate list but I don’t care, it’s true!! There’s so many tough, coarse, rude, manipulative, women out there who are cruel and have crushed many men!!! I am praying that God will raise up men (real God-fearing men) to build up, to encourage, stand beside, pray with and cry with other men who need healing.”
Response:
Laureen, you are a rare blessing. The LORD is truly working in your life and in your precious family sister!!!!! There are little boys who will one day need a truly God-fearing wife who will need your daughters to be just that, in order to fulfill God’s perfect will in this earth as He ordained it to be. You should wear the fact that you are on Jezebel’s hit list (“feminist hate list”) as a badge of honor! You are being persecuted for righteousness’ sake and Jesus promised you will be greatly rewarded forever (Matthew 5:10-12). Those Jezebels who poses as liberators while bringing women into bondage, could not be more abominable before the Almighty than they are and will soon be vanquished into eternal damnation with the original Jezebel and her master, Satan! This is a spiritual battle at its core and not a battle of male and female! In fact, praise God for the opposite sex amen! There is so much beauty in our LORD’s creation! We must follow His plain instructions as to the roles of men and women – it’s really not that difficult and brings great blessings when we do!
Here’s the poem sister Laureen was referring to as one of the things that has gotten her “on the feminist hate list.” To them she is a traitor but to the LORD, she is His disciple, His true follower.
“The world has enough women who are tough; may I be a woman who is tender.
There are enough women who are coarse; may I be a woman who is kind.
There are enough women who are rude; may I be a woman who is refined.
There are enough women of fame and fortune; may I be a woman of faith.
There are enough women consumed with greed; may I be a woman consumed with goodness.
There are enough women consumed with vanity; may I be a woman consumed with virtue.
There are enough women consumed with popularity; may I be a woman consumed with purity.”
Assaulted with Brass Knuckles by a “Worship” Leader!
If you don’t think this battle is severe and that souls aren’t at stake, read this further testimony from Laureen:
“I know I am on the hate list of Jezebels. It’s constant, even when I walk into a room. When I walk into any room, they will start to act weird. In the past I was assaulted by one ‘worship’ leader. She used brass knuckles on me and there were 1 woman and 2 men attacking me. Oh and they led worship to the congregation 20 minutes later! I ended up with serious head injuries and was transferred to a big city hospital, I was also so traumatized, my balance was gone, and I had seizures. My speech is nearly perfect now since recovering from this attack. I can count again and my multiplication tables are almost back too. I can still play my instruments, and when dancing with the other ladies in the synagogue sometimes they hold my balance (because us women all hold hands when we dance). I have spoken now to other ministries, even ministries of drug addicts who are helping people get delivered. The Lord has blessed me to warn men how Delilahs and Jezebels operate, and practical things to look for in discerning them. And, my husband then speaks on how to practically deal with them biblically and survive, or live Scripture till the death!!! Back to the hospital and injury … the head injury is the reason why I have memory problems but even that is getting better. I am currently a living miracle because I am studying ancient biblical Hebrew translation at the University of Jerusalem and my private instructor is working for his doctorate. Thank God he is very, very extremely patient.
Beware because there are quite a few Jezebels who are starting to stay at home and try to look like keepers at home and spiritual. It’s getting weirder seriously!! These weird women are using nice sounding terms like ‘spiritual mothers,’ ‘kindred spirits,’ and other terms. You can see the fruit of this weirdness and you see spiritually dead families!!!!
Many women do have some Jezebel traits but everything can be overcome by faith and obedience to the LORD, taking Him at His Word and doing it, living it. Good fruit, beginning with God’s love, will result.
Judging the Fruit
“Jesus warned us that a tree is known by its’ fruit. How true that statement is, as our sister testifies. I am currently getting involved in a pro-life group of Christians who are taking a stand against the abomination of the despicable practice of child killing which is an epidemic in our country. The very women who loudly proclaim their ‘Right’ to choose, are the ones destroying their own daughters! WHAT about the rights of those beautiful baby girls? All civilized societies restrict the individual’s freedom to choose whenever that choice would harm an innocent person.
I enjoy working out at the YMCA before I go to my job and every morning, on one of the flat screens, I see Joyce Meyer in front of a large audience teaching and preaching; an audience which includes MEN! It is appalling to me, a father of three beautiful daughters and brother to three wonderful sisters, that any Christian man would abrogate his God given authority to a woman in direct violation of the written Word of God! Any woman who seeks to gain influence as a Christian teacher over men is disobeying the clear instructions of the Holy Spirit given to all of us who care to read the truth in God’s Word. The end result will be spiritual fornication.” – Steve Michels

JEZEBEL FEEDBACK:
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“I am not sure what bible you are reading but pastors can be both men and women. One of the first apostles aside from the twelve was a woman. And not all intercessors are witches. Actually the original text stated Junia was a woman but I’m not going to debate this with u. As your religious beliefs seems to believe that women cannot be in a place of authority when clearly even the book of Exodus shows that Merriam was in a place of authority.
Dude read that scripture carefully…tee scripture in genesis doesn’t refer to the woman seeking leadership u r interpreting that in your own way secondly the timothy scripture plainly states “I, Timothy” says it nit God. Again, Meriam was in a place of authority. Lastly, you neglect to realize that jewish custom and practices are not for us. bye. as i said i am not going to debate with your religious spirit. Women can be in a place of authority and kead. I know the calking God has placed on my life and the authority and demonstration of His power and anointing over my life and many other women.
Sorry but I am well learned in scripture and have a degree in theology and KNOW the WORD and KNOW my GOD and don’t need u to teach me scripture. i have been saved for 32 years serving alongside my husband as apostles, prophets and teachers. bye sir.
Not running from anything but a will not deal with a religious spirit but rebuke it in Jesus’ name! women in leadership are throughout the entire bible (Deborah, Esther, Junis, Mary Magdalene, not only in reference but Jesus himself himself gave authority to women and entrusted them over men. have a blessed day.
i don’t care what your writing says. i KNOW the word and capacity i operate in, but i won’t stand by and let u interpret as u see fit nor make women believe they cannot be in a place of leadership or authority when the Father called both men and women. If married, to work together.” Francesca
REPLY:
First, Miriam was the sister of Moses. What position of headship was she in? Chapters and verses please.
in the 27 books of the New Testament canon, where is there even one example of a group of woman who are an organized intercessory prayer team? This doesn’t mean that Christians aren’t to pray together and yet it’s a whole different thing than what we see in these all female intercessory prayer groups today.
God has a stated will. He had a special reason to say that women are not to be in leadership over men in His church/among His people. After the fall, in Genesis 3, He says that the woman’s desire will be to her husband which means she will desire his position of headship. Yet that headship is a non-negotiable. Perhaps the fact that she was the first to be deceived and instrumental in the man’s agreeing with her, after the fall she was relegated to being under his headship. Look here …..
1 Timothy 2 has a lot of answers:
“In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; 10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.”
I have nothing to hide or run from …. all I desire is to walk in His truth. Do you have something to hide or run from? ….. The original Greek does not hint of Junia being male or female.
Francesa, you seem to simply want this to be the case – so you are seeking to find validation for it. But it’s just not there. Not one of the 12 were female. Does that not tell us something? Jesus could just as easily have chosen 12 women but He chose none. Oh and by the way He created men and women. He was there at the fall. He knows more than any of us mere men that women need to be protected and this is why He told us they are not to be in headship or leadership over men. Also, Christ specifically addresses this and how it is forbidden and the great destruction it brings to people’s lives when women are allowed to be in authority where He forbid them to be. Read Revelation 2:20-23.
Using Junia to try to validate or build a whole Bible-contradicting doctrine that women can be in leadership over men in Christ’s body is weak at best. Here’s why …. Let’s look at the verse first:
“Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.” Romans 16:7
First off, it’s not conclusive that Junia was even a female. Secondly, the Bible has a built-in system of interpretation. – “This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word (doctrine, teaching) be established.” (2 Corinthians 13:1) There is no solid basis at all that Junia was even a woman, much less to say she was an apostle.
One ministry sums this up this way: “The early church fathers are not in agreement about the gender of Junia. There even seems to be evidence that strongly suggests Junia was a male. Commentaries differ on the gender. Translations differ on how Romans 16:7 is to be rendered into English. There are different uses of the Greek word “apostello,” and it cannot be conclusively demonstrated to which categorical use of the term Junia should fit into. Even if Junia were an apostle in the sense of having seen the risen Lord, it doesn’t mean she was in authority in the Church. Therefore, for someone to conclude that Junia was a woman apostle in full authority in the Church cannot be maintained from the Scriptures.”
You are clearly not under the authority of Jesus Christ. He’s calling you to repent truly friend… to lay down your life. You will not be saved until you do. When you do you will have a meek, humble spirit and abide as Christ and His holy apostles stated you should as a female, God fearing woman.
You are in full rebellion, not against me but rather against the LORD. He’s calling you to lay down your life. I don’t believe you are saved whatsoever friend. Your fruit is showing to be that of rebellion which is witchraft (1 Samuel 15:22-23). If you know the LORD and the Bible so well, why are you running for cover? What do you have to hide?
It’s interesting that you say you don’t need me to teach you Scripture (because you are unteachable, full of pride and rebellion) and yet, in rebellion against God, you want to rule over men and teach them. Jezebel is manifested in vivid reality here.
Okay, wow you will just saying anything won’t you and put God’s name on it? This is what taking His holy name in vain means…. you are doing it right here. You said “Jesus himself himself gave authority to women and entrusted them over men.” Okay, if so, please give us all chapters and verses.

“A true man or woman of God filled with the Spirit of God is usually hated, rejected, and despised by the carrier of the Jezebel Spirit.” Carol B.
“‘The Jezebel spirit’ is very real and is one of the main problems I see in the “modern American pop-culture church” There is a prevalence of Jezebel spirits running the whole show. They are everywhere manipulating weak men an usurping Holy Spirits leading…so that they may try to turn the bride of Christ into a spiritual harlot as they themselves are. Also, remember the spirit is not confined to just women. Many men are possessed by Jezebel as well.” Aaron S.
“Unfortunately I know quite a few of these Jezebels. And, they just never seem to stop, even when you think they have possibly changed! Still the same…still lying, manipulating, hurting everyone…and then never seem to know anything about it! Still playing the same old game.” Jennifer S.
“LOVE IT!!! I’m following Christ…I had been off track for too many years…NO ONE OR ANYTHING MEANS more than JESUS CHRIST to me….I realized that the fulfillment I was looking for could only be found in HIM and I have so much more peace in my life than ever before…Once I let go of people and realized I had to get in line and wait on God and bow to His will not the other way around!!!” Aquie H.
“Definitely Titus 2 as well as other great Scripture shows God’s divine order for the purpose for women and for His will and glory. It took me 40 years to finally say ‘Lord this isn’t working, show me!’ And, since then it’s been an honor to learn such beauty, responsibility and importance in such matter of ‘order.’ Because for sure I’ve witnessed that ‘it does not work’ any other way through three failed marriages with troubled and misled children. Yet, the only way is God’s way. Women aren’t so loving and supportive to one another as they should be an evil spirit has risen in our midst, It’s the ‘every woman for herself’ and it’s a vicious cycle that grows out of control and is passed down from generation to generation with even the simplest curse of ‘I hope you have kids 10 times worse than you.” (This is the very curse of Jezebel Jesus pronounced in Rev. 2:20-23). This is a powerful curse that needs broken and for women to get into the obedience of God by doing the very things He created and designed us to be. Even though women believe they can do it all, and they very well can but we weren’t designed or created to do it all ourselves and attempting such only causes havoc and chaos. Please pray for me. I am focusing only on what the Lord has led me to do as a Godly woman. It is quite trying and not an easy task with many who do not want to hear the truth of how and why God created the role of a woman in His divine order of creation. In doing so He made a completeness of His image through both the man and the woman in their seperate and very different roles together. We will be held accountable.” Kristine
25 Signs American Women Are Being Destroyed By The Sexual Revolution And Our Promiscuous Culture by Michael of endoftheamericandream.com
Has the sexual revolution been good for American women? Not at all. In fact, when you look at the facts it becomes clear that the sexual revolution has been an absolute disaster for American women. In the United States today, men have been trained to primarily view women as sex objects, and our culture has become exceedingly promiscuous. As a result, the United States leads the world in teen pregnancy, there are 19 million new STD infections every single year, more than half of all children born to women under the age of 30 are being born out of wedlock and we are witnessing the systematic breakdown of the family unit in America. And yet anyone that tries to teach our young women that they should dress modestly and keep themselves pure for marriage is severely criticized. Well, if all Americans actually did keep themselves pure until marriage, we wouldn’t have nearly the problems with STDs, teen pregnancy and abortion that we do today. The consequences of teaching our young women that they should be “free” to run around and sleep with a whole bunch of different men have been dramatic. The following are 25 signs that American women are being destroyed by the sexual revolution and our promiscuous culture…
#1 There are 19 million new STD infections in the United States every single year. Approximately half of them happen to young people in the 15 to 24-year-old age bracket.
#2 It costs the U.S. health care system approximately $17,000,000,000 every single year to treat sexually transmitted diseases.
#3 There were more than 1.4 million cases of chlamydia reported in the United States in 2011. An astounding 33 percent of those cases involved Americans that were younger than 20 years of age.
#4 It is estimated that about one out of every six Americans between the ages of 14 and 49 have genital herpes.
#5 24,000 American women become infertile each year due to undiagnosed STDs.
#6 In the United States today, approximately 47 percent of all high school students have had sex.
#7 Sadly, one out of every four teen girls in the U.S. has at least one sexually transmitted disease.
#8 According to one survey, 24 percent of all U.S. teens that have STDs say that they still have unprotected sex.
#9 Amazingly, one out of every five teen girls in the U.S. actually wants to be a teenage mother.
#10 If you can believe it, the United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate on the entire planet. In fact, the United States has a teen pregnancy rate that is more than twice as high as Canada, more than three times as high as France and more than seven times as high as Japan.
#11 When men don’t have to wait until they get married to have sex, then they are likely to delay marriage or never get married at all. According to the Pew Research Center, only 51 percent of all Americans that are at least 18 years old are currently married. Back in 1960, 72 percent of all U.S. adults were married.
#12 Today, an all-time low 44.2 percent of all Americans between the ages of 25 and 34 are married.
#13 In the United States today, more than half of all couples “move in together” before they get married.
#14 The divorce rate for couples that live together first is significantly higher than for those that do not.
#15 America has the highest divorce rate on the globe by a wide margin.
#16 For women under the age of 30 living in the United States today, more than half of all babies are being born out of wedlock.
#17 At this point, more than one out of every four children in the United States is being raised by a single parent.
#18 Approximately 42 percent of all single mothers in the United States are on food stamps.
#19 The sexual revolution has caused women to be primarily looked at as sex objects. In this kind of environment, it should be no surprise that there has been an absolute explosion of pornography in recent years. An astounding 30 percent of all Internet traffic now goes to pornography websites, and the U.S. produces more pornography than any other nation has in the history of the world.
#20 One survey discovered that 25 percent of all employees that have Internet access in America visit sex websites while they are at work.
#21 Overall, more than 50 million babies have been killed in America since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973.
#22 When you total up all forms of abortion, including those caused by the abortion drug RU 486, the grand total comes to more than a million abortions performed in the United States every single year.
#23 The number of American babies killed by abortion each year is roughly equal to the number of U.S. military deaths that have occurred in all of the wars that the United States has ever been involved in combined.
#24 It has been reported that a staggering 41 percent of all New York City pregnancies end in abortion.
#25 One study found that 86 percent of all abortions are done for the sake of convenience.
So what can be done about any of this?
Unfortunately, turning our culture around would not be an easy thing. Loose sexuality is glorified on television, in the movies, on our radios and in our magazines. Just about everywhere you turn there are very powerful sexual images. The following is an excerpt from a recent article by Devvy Kidd…
America’s culture has come a long way since the 60s. For decades it has resembled a filthy sewer and shows no signs of returning to decency. Children are being sexualized with markets targeting little girls as young as kindergarten age. Cable television (which includes ABC, CBS, NBC) has become nothing more than a purveyor of soft porn. Sexual imagery is everywhere. The filth used to be confined to porn channels like HBO, Cinemax and others which I have never had in my home. Now, it’s the ‘big three’ (ABC, CBS, NBC) and all the other networks that consistently pump sin and sex into households every night of the week.
Meanwhile, we have raised an entire generation of young males that don’t know how to be men. Our culture has taught them to be extremely hesitant to be husbands and fathers, and instead it has taught them to be sex-obsessed idiots that want to “score” with as many women as possible.
As long as our culture pushes these values, we will continue to suffer the kinds of consequences listed above.
So what do all of you think about these things?
Do you believe that there is any hope for America?

How to Spot a Fake Bible [podcast]

Please don’t balk till you read these 3 verses. This is indefensible to the sane mind! “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” (Proverbs 18:13)
Satan loves to borrow from the authentic. This is so he can attempt to borrow credibility from the real and he pawns off, he promulgates his counterfeits. This is why one of his fake “bibles” is called the “New King James Bible.” The Word “Berean” immediately evokes the truth of the disciples there who stood on God’s written Word and compared everything to it to prove it was true or false (Acts 17:10-11). In 2016 the Berean Study Bible (BSB) was introduced. Sounds good, right? Not! There are 4 verses we use to acid test “bibles”: Matthew 17:21; Acts 8:37; Romans 8:1; and Colossians 1:14
As usual, this BSB was taken from the known corrupted manuscripts instead of the Textus Receptus from which the KJB comes from. In the BSB, typically, we find:
- Matthew 17:21 was removed and so was Acts 8:37,
- Romans 8:1 was chopped in half, and
- The blood of Jesus was removed from Colossians 1:14.
Many times I hold people’s feet to the fire on Colossians 1:14 and ask them if they truly believe they are washed in Christ’s blood and if they believe they could be saved without His blood (Hebrews 9:22). Then when they agree that our LORD’s blood is the only way they could have been and are saved, I ask them how they could possibly agree with, condone the removing of His precious blood and bring in Revelation 22:18-19.
“The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalms 12:6-7
“Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. 6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:5-6
People are constantly bragging about “their” translation they love and swear it’s the best. So, all you have to do to blow up their little deception is to go online and find that version and go to the following 3 verses: Matthew 17:21, Colossians 1:14, Romans 8:1
IF you are going to dare still argue to defend the fake news new “bibles” after being told that the BLOOD of Jesus is removed from Colossians 1:14 and Matthew 17:21 is removed and Romans 8:1 is chopped in half…. I have no more responsibility to communicate truth to you according to (Matthew 7:6; Titus 3:10-11; Revelation 22:18-19; Proverbs 30:5-6). You are not a man of truth.
You have to wonder if professing Christians actually know and take this severe warning seriously by the crass attitude we see concerning the fake “bibles” which deliberately butchered God’s words and changed major doctrines (Revelation 22:18-19). Where O where is the holy fear of God?
“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” Revelation 22:18-19
Compare to the KJB which came from the Textus Receptus manuscripts which make up 98% of all manuscripts in existence and agree with each other. The underlying manuscripts are most important. When you compare these 3 verses you immediately see if their version is accurate. There’s more to it though because apparently some of the fake “bibles” use both sets of manuscripts. Yet, usually the fake “bibles” come wholly from the corrupted manuscripts and comparing these 3 verses reveals such.
The new versions of the Bible are rooted in rebellion no matter what the sales pitch they put on gullible minds. They are man’s thoughts and philosophies inserted into God’s (Isaiah 55:8-9). Total rebellion. Read Revelation 22:18-19. They are cursed at the root. The Holy Ghost is our Teacher not the Hebrew, Greek, or supposed, self-appointed “experts.”
90% of the time you will find that their “bible” version came from the corrupted manuscripts.
Personally, I cannot endorse what are clearly Satan’s CORRUPTIONS, cheap substitutes, and counterfeits of God’s Word and therefore cannot recommend them. I definitely encourage any and all believers, no matter the maturity level, to read the King James Bible.

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.
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.

Mug Shots and Mercy Moments! [podcast]

The LORD Delights
in those who Trust in His Mercy
and not their own Merit-less, Sinful State
As an eternal memorial of the mercy of God in Christ, Jesus showed mercy to a man who was likely a lifelong criminal sinner.
After rebuking the other thief for his unbelief, the penitent thief on the cross next to Jesus asked our LORD to remember him.
“And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:42-43
So, if the Son of God freely forgave and took to glory the repentant, seeking criminal next to Him on the cross, why would anyone believe He’s changed? Who is it that would deny that Christ would and is doing the same today?
“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” Hebrews 13:8
WHEN you see people get arrested… it’s likely that God is setting them apart so He can save, so He can transform them. Pray for them. Jail is death and burial…. which must precede resurrection. Jesus is coming and eternity is all that matters!
—- We all get various spam emails and see ads for many things, including background checks. NEVER MIND mere man’s “background checks” … How does our background check out with Him? Isn’t that all that matters? The Almighty has the full version of the “background check” of our whole lives – including every thought and motive of our hearts (Proverbs 15:3; Hebrews 4:13). And He’s the only Judge before whom we shall all stand to give account ….. WHO do you fear? … David cried “Let my sentence (verdict) come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” (Psalms 17:2) In other words David was only concerned about how the LORD viewed him and had no concern for what mere sinful men thought or said about him. ….. The apostle Paul wrote:
“Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth. 34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” Romans 8:33-37
“The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.” Psalms 147:11
According to Psalms 147:11, just WHO did your Maker and Judge say that He takes “pleasure in”?
- “them that fear him”
- “those that hope in his mercy”
Those who truly fear God will repent to be saved and will continually repent as needed (2 Corinthians 7:9-10; 12:21, etc.). “Repent” is the very first word of the Gospel (Matthew 3:2; 4:17; Luke 13:3, 5; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 17:30, etc.).
UNTIL, as an individual, you begin to realize just how wicked you really are, you will never begin to appreciate what our KING and Savior did on that cross!
Concerning your initial thoughts when you see that mug shot, examine yourself for a moment by answering the following questions:
- Do you hold out mercy and understanding for yourself while harshly judging others in your attitude, never knowing the shoes they walk in?
- Do you understand that Jesus promised that His children will be accused of “all manner of evil against” them “falsely” and instructed them to “rejoice” when this happens? (Matthew 5:10-12) Do you rejoice at persecutions?
- Do you know that Psalms 17:2 says our “sentence” ultimately comes from the LORD and not mere men?
Holding out mercy for others is important. Having a mercy-filled disposition is godly.
NO MATTER how hurt or mad you may currently be with someone, remember, Jesus died to save that person and is not willing that such a person perish (Luke 9:56; John 3:17; 2 Peter 3:9).
“Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.” Matthew 5:7
“Refusal to pray because of the guilt of your sins is like refusing to take you bath because you are dirty. Pray.” Augustine Mario
Bible Hint: God says that if you want mercy, you must show mercy. In many cases, in eternity, things will reverse completely as the Bible teaches. Many of those in positions of authority in this brief life will be in hell for eternity (Ezek. 21:26; Lk. 16:19-31; Rev. 5:10; 20:4, 6, etc.). Many who are judges today and send people to prison, will themselves be submitted irrevocably and eternally to the prison of fire by the Judge of their eternal souls. as As they sat in their high seats (benches) and hundreds and even thousands of times sent souls to jail, they themselves ignored their own need to repent before a holy God and Judge against whom they has grossly sinned.
The fires of eternal damnation shall forever feed upon the hopeless souls who leave this earth without having received and walked in (to the end) the mercy of the Almighty which He offers all men through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
THE SINS THAT SHOULD CONCERN US MOST ARE OUR OWN SINS! why then do we wrongly judge others in our attitudes when the one who needs Jesus most is us? To his friends who wrongly judged him, Job said: “But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?” (Job 19:28)
Hell’s Mug Shots are Forever!
The Word of God tells us that anyone living in sin, upon death, is going to hell, immediately upon death. Luke 16:19-31; Hebrews 9:27; Ezekiel 33:12-13, etc Those who are born again and abiding in Christ will be with Him immediately upon death (2 Corinthians 5:6-8; Philippians 1:21-23). You have to be born again to be in Christ.
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.” Hebrews 9:27
The Bible establishes the inherent sinfulness of all men and that would include you, my friend.
“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one … For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:10, 23
May the only final law enforcement Judge who sits atop the Highest throne in the supreme court of the Universe show us our own mug shot today – the fact that we ourselves are completely guilty of sinning against Him and that we are in utter need of the One who came and bled that we might be forgiven.
The Bible establishes that the whole world – every human being, without exception – is “guilty before God.” (Romans 3:19)
Those whose mug shots we often see of those caught for their sinful activities and whose sins are made public are just like you – sinners! Just because our sins aren’t known to the mass public does not make them any less a violation to the holiness of our Maker and Judge. If you have ever stolen anything, lusted or hated in your heart, you are no less a sinner than the mug shot guy or girl. The only difference here is that they have been caught and are in jail for a temporary time in this brief life. When you die your doom or bliss is sealed. Don’t wait friend – turn to the Good Shepherd today. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” (Acts 16:31)
“Some men’s sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.” 1 Timothy 5:24
God sees/knows ALL sins. He knows ALL of the sins you have committed in your heart and then those you committed in action. Nothing escapes Him.
Do you realize that if you die in sin that you will spend eternity in the lake of fire?
“And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:15
Will your mug shot be forever posted for all to see as you sizzle in the flames of eternal damnation?
Getting Off the High Horse
Here’s a Bible passage to prayerfully each morning this week:
“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:5-7
The LORD delights in His people and wants them to see things the way He sees them (Romans 12:2). His first desire is to restore and show mercy and He does so when the sinner repents.
All is recorded in Heaven (Hebrews 4:13). God sees ALL your sins and will pull the curtains back and roll the tape of your life on Judgment Day. Every single thought and deed of your life is on file with God. He made provision to remove and desires to forgive all. If you die without His forgiveness, you will face the Almighty on Judgment Day in the Supreme Court of the Universe as a guilty sinner who refused to be pardoned. In trembling ruins you will stand shameful and without excuse before a holy God.
Put your own face in that mug shot! Admit to your own sins! Own up to your vile thoughts, meditations, lusts, adulteries, fornications of heart! And then begin praying for God to show mercy on others as He has shown upon your own filthy soul! Beg Him for a pure heart so that you can see Him! (Matthew 5:8; Proverbs 20:9)
Why do you self-righteously and arrogantly boast as if you have no need for divine mercy this very hour?
“Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?” Proverbs 20:9
If you will be in Heaven eternally, you had better get in touch with your infinite need for divine mercy (Matthew 5:20; 21:31).
Let’s ask: Where are “the eyes of the LORD”? – “The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.” Proverbs 15:3
What does God behold? – “beholding the evil and the good.” Proverbs 15:3
What did Jesus tell us is going to be “covered”? – “nothing.”
“Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. “ Matthew 10:26
Word to the wise – You better get off that high horse or the flames of eternal damnation shall forever feed upon your helpless, conscious corpse!
It’s time to dismount from the high horse of pride and mount the lowly donkey of humility. God is going to eternally bless the lowly, humble souls who live to celebrate His Majestic, blessed only begotten Son who bled for our sins. Don’t miss this eternal celebration and bliss!
“And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” Matthew 23:12
“Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:10
Back to the Mug Shots….
The thieves on the crosses that flanked our blessed Savior were mug shot criminals! What is your view of them? What is your view of mug shot criminals today?
When is the last time you lifted the mug shot person in prayer? What about the flashy story on TV about some evildoer? Did you pray for them?
What is your very first thought concerning mug shots you see in print in your mail box or on TV or the internet?
Firstly, it’s time to get a clue! Do you know how many false arrests go on in this nation? Staggering! Do you know how many false imprisonments go on in our injustice system? Staggering! Do you know that many Christians are in jail right now serving sentences as a result of persecutions and false evidence fabricated against them in order to jail them? Many of the LORD’s most blessed patriarchs of Christ were jailed! Joseph, several of the prophets, John the Baptist, Paul, etc.
God does not forget people in this earth’s jails but he does forget those who left the earth outside of a relationship with Christ – those who chose to “forget” Him. They will forever be vanquished into the fires of damnation (Psalms 9:17; 50:22).
Concerning this matter, Mark McIntosh writes:
“Sometimes it’s BETTER to be in a PRISON and be found by JESUS and TRULY REPENT of our SINS than to be free in a world where your SOUL is in BONDAGE and hell is pending! Repent and BE FREE INDEED …. in jail, prison or in society … it doesn’t matter where … AMEN?”
But just what if that next person in a mug shot you see is truly guilty? Are they beyond God’s hand to redeem and forgive? Is God’s hand shortened? (Isaiah 59:1-2) Is God’s Word lying when it tells us that Jesus is alive and well at His blessed Father’s right hand and able to save from the uttermost to the uttermost? (Hebrews 7:24-25) Where is your faith? Repent of such evil thinking that is emanating from an uncircumcised heart! (Mark 7:20-23)
Think like a disciple of Christ, friend. Memorize Romans 12:1-2 today!
Are you still so very blinded by your own sin that you join the depraved hearts of the world’s sinners in condemning criminals? The reality is, that in the “Holy, holy, holy” eyes of the Almighty, you are in need of no less mercy that the vilest of criminals in this fleeting life (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8).
What did Jesus do to the two criminals who were at each of His blessed sides while He hung for YOUR sins? He gave both of them the full privilege to be saved into His eternal kingdom of bliss and praise God one of them received Him!
“And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:42-43
Looking for Mercy!
“Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.” Isaiah 55:6-7
Do you realize that gutter prostitutes and the vilest of criminals in this world have a better chance at going to Heaven than self-righteous religious people who pastor churches, cast out devils, speak with tongues, serve in their church, sing in the choir, go on missionary trips, and do many wonderful works in Christ’s name?
The Son of God says to the religious leaders of His day:
“Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots (whores, prostitutes) go into the kingdom of God before you.” Matthew 21:31
Who did the LORD tell us will receive the full strength of undiluted judgment upon their own heads?
“For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against (triumphs over) judgment.” James 2:13
Did you catch what James says here?
Read it again and answer this:
- Who will receive to themselves “judgment WITHOUT mercy”? – Those who “shewed no mercy” to others in their thoughts and out of their mouths!
Some self-righteous soul may still be saying “But, but, but that criminal did this or that…” … Jesus died for unholy criminals like you and me! He found and saved your wretched soul didn’t He? Does He love that mug shot soul any less?
My advice to you is to genuinely surrender to Christ, to die to self completely, to cry out to Him to break you to the core of your being. Then, you will cease sitting in the seat of the scornful, and truly be able to be used of Him. Get low or to hell you also will go (Psalm 1). Whatever you do, read Psalm 51 and take special note to every word this time!
God’s Word tells us that those who will be saved are “looking for the MERCY of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.” They do not stand in their own self-righteous, filthy, sinful rags but rather they stand looking to the LORD for His blessed mercy!
“Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the MERCY of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.” Jude 1:21
Just what are believers to be “looking for” in light of the fact that we shall all meet our Maker soon? – “mercy”!
Live and Preach this – The Pharisee and the Publican
“And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. 12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. 13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.” Luke 18:9-14
The only one of these two guys who was justified and ready to survive the holy wrath and judgment of God was the one who cried from his needy heart “God be merciful to ME a sinner.” (Luke 18:13)
If you are being convicted by the truth and the Holy Ghost of God, it’s time to repent and truly turn to the LORD and be broken, crying out to the LORD for His mercy upon your own wretched, self-righteous and evil heart before it’s too late.
Read Psalm 51 and beg the LORD to forgive you as you cry out to Him to search YOU, to cleanse YOU … it’s only “THEN” that He can use you.
“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
Just because the mass public doesn’t know about YOUR sins doesn’t mean that your sins are hidden! The LORD saw your evil thoughts, lust, covetousness, and hatred! God saw you do it! What shall you do?
***We must make sure we are walking in the “true holiness” that is only possible by the mercy of God shown to us through Jesus Christ (Ephesians 4:23-25). Please beware of the false holiness that is being taught all around us. True or Feigned Holiness?
