Observable and Stated Phenomenon
of the Depraved Nature

“Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.” Psalms 32:7

The LORD is our hiding place from the storms of life. One of those storms is the condemnation of others, namely the sons of Belial who pose as Christians, watchmen, and pastors (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).

The LORD has revealed to us through His apostle Paul that the unsanctified soul will accuse others of what they themselves are guilty of. This is a type of projection of one’s own darkness upon another by false accusation, seeking to if but for a brief moment, relieve their own guilty souls of the burden only Christ can alleviate. Has this happened to you?

“Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. 2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. 3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?” Romans 2:1-3

Lately, I have spoken to several of Christ’s disciples who are being falsely accused by people who are actually guilty of the exact sin(s) they are falsely accusing them of. Beware of this phenomenon which is addressed in Holy Scripture. Also, our Savior told us that if we truly follow Him, that “men shall … say ALL manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.” (Matthew 5:11)

R.A. Torrey wrote:

“The humility of Jesus Christ was manifested in His silence under false accusation. Jesus did not defend His own good name. He left that to God. He ‘committed himself to him that judgeth righteously” and God has given Him ‘the name that is above every name.’ (Phil. 2:9)” What the Bible Teaches, p. 128

“For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. 14 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.” Psalms 31:13-14

As I read the New Testament Scriptures, it becomes more and more clear that IF someone is not slandering you, you aren’t a powerful force in the hand of Christ – who promised that all who follow Him WILL be persecuted and lied about (Matthew 5:10-12; 10:22; 2 Timothy 3:12; 1 Peter 4:12-14, etc.).

Learn to wear the scorn of others as a badge of honor – realizing that it only proves you are in the light of Christ – right in  the middle of God’s perfect will! Read Acts 5:41.

Another Stated Phenomenon is the Promise of Divine Protection!

You are set apart for the LORD’s glory!

“But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.” Psalms 4:3

“Let the heathen rage.” (Psalms 2) Learning to die down deep into the death of Christ, to be dead and buried with Him daily, is the key to be hidden away with Him in complete comfort with “the God of all comfort.” (2 Corinthians 1:2-5)

It’s just amazing how people can sink to such depths of darkness proven by the things they dare to make up about others in their railing accusations, and even more amazing how our LORD protects us and gives us total peace and disregard for the judgment of mere sinful men!!!!

Are YOU “Blessed” According to this Description Jesus Gives?

Our LORD Jesus, who was persecuted even unto death, is bringing us to the place that we actually get concerned about our spiritual state with Him if we are not being attacked, persecuted, and lied about (Matthew 5:10-12; 1 Peter 4:12-14).

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.” Matthew 5:10-12

Are you rejoicing because you are “Blessed”?!!!

Throw those hands up and give Jesus praise!!!!

Jesus promised that in the last days, these days in which we live, “the love of many shall wax cold” and they will turn on the righteous (Matthew 24:10-13). So, that gives you and I more opportunities to “rejoice” in light of the soon coming Savior who is going to give each of us a new name! (Revelation 3:12) These things will not even be remembered nor come into mind! (Isaiah 65:17)

“For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.” Isaiah 65:17

Help me count! HOW MANY judges are there?!?!?!

“Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. 12 There is ONE LAWGIVER, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?” James 4:11-12

WHO? WHO? WHO?

“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.” Romans 8:33-34

WHERE Does Your Judgment/Verdict Come from?

“Let my sentence (verdict) come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” Psalms 17:2

Beloved saint, if at this time you are not being falsely accused or someone is not dragging up an old sin against you, trust me, if Jesus tarries, such will occur again. Read Psalms. David suffered at the hands of multitudes of evil doers – Satan’s children – who falsely accused him and attempted to condemn him for past sins. Find your comfort in the LORD alone of whom the psalmist says “Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.” (Psalms 31:20)

Hid with Christ in God!

“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:3

Observable and stated phenomenon of the depraved nature. The unsanctified soul will accuse others of what they themselves are guilty of. This is a type of projection of one’s own darkness upon another in false accusation, seeking to if but for a brief moment, relieve their own guilty souls of the burden only Christ can alleviate. Let’s review it again….

“Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. 2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. 3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?” Romans 2:1-3

I have spoken to several of Christ’s disciples lately who are being false accused by people who are actually guilty of the exact sin(s) they are falsely accusing them of. Beware of this phenomenon which is addressed in Holy Scripture. Also, our Savior told us that if we truly follow Him, that “men shall … say ALL manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.” (Matthew 5:11)

Are YOU “Blessed” According to this Description Jesus Gives?

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.” Matthew 5:10-12

Are you rejoicing because you are “Blessed”?!!!

Throw those hands up and give Jesus praise!!!!

Help me count! HOW MANY judges are there?!?!?!

“Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. 12 There is ONE LAWGIVER, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?” James 4:11-12

DIVINE INSULATION! WHO? WHO? WHO?

“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.” Romans 8:33-34

WHERE Does Your Judgment/Verdict Come from?

“Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” Psalms 17:2

——DEEP SIX THIS!!!!! JUST ONE MORE REASON to rejoice at the most wonderful thing in the history of the world – Please infuriate Satan by sharing this one –  Vanquishing Your Past Sins!

Pass this on to comfort another child of God who is looking for the soon return of Jesus.

What Does it Mean to Follow Christ? [podcast]


“Earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” Jude 3

THE LORD is calling for an immediate release of the WHOLE counsel of HIS WORD!

DO you have a 20/20 vision? Read Acts 20:20 and get it!

Just like fake news TV, wolves only give you a small part of the whole story – in order to manipulate you! Half truths kill!

YOU know when you are right with God when you are running TO the cross message and not AWAY from it! “Enemies of the cross” of Christ “mind earthly things” and not the things the LORD commanded (Philippians 3:18-19).

The cross is a dethroning, unseating of self and the enthroning of Christ!

Guilty of Condoning Evil Romans 1:32

Public Acceptance of Sin

When we participate in that which is an abomination to the LORD, when we help those lies spread, prosper, poison the minds of the people, we bid God speed to evil and come under a curse. We shall be judged with the wicked if we do not repent. 2 John 11.

Any preacher not preaching on the blood of Jesus, on sin named by God in His Word, and the necessity to be crucified with Christ daily and overcome all of it, is an “accursed” false prophet who is preaching “another gospel.” (Galatians 1:6-9) Run or you’re going to hell with Him – for condoning, for “bidding Godspeed” to the fraud (2 John 10-11).

“God … commandeth all men every where to repent.” Acts 17:30

This short, yet convicting commentary is taken from the Life in the Spirit Study Bible concerning Romans 1:32.

First let us review the Biblical text, then the commentary.

“Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.” Romans 1:32

HAVE PLEASURE IN THEM THAT DO THEM. Paul’s last word on general human sinfulness is God’s condemnation of a condition even more damning than the practice, i.e., supporting , approving, and encouraging evil by taking pleasure in the immoral actions of others. This disposition is the ultimate in depravity-vicarious enjoyment of lust and evil. Sin becomes entertainment. (1) The word “have pleasure” (Gk. suneudokeo) means “are pleased with,” “delight in,” or “give approval to,” and points to the casual enjoyment of the sins of others that prevails in human society. (2) Today we know that great harm is produced by the portrayal of immorality that dominates the entertainment media; yet many consent to it and derive pleasure from it. Being entertained by watching other people sin and engage in ungodly actions, even while you yourself abstain, brings you under the same condemnation of God as those engaging in such evil practices. Iniquity is intensified in any society where sin meets with no inhibition from the disapproval of others and where people enjoy watching it. (3) Hence, those (and especially those who profess faith in Christ) who use the immoral actions of others for entertainment and enjoyment are directly contributing to public opinion favorable to immorality and, therefore, to the corruption and eternal damnation of an indefinite number of other people. This sin is worthy of death and will be exposed and judged at the final day of judgment (2 Thess. 2:12). Life in the Spirit Study Bible

“I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.” Psalms 101:3

ALL WHO ARE “OF GOD” STAND ON HIS TRUTH AND ALL WHO DON’T ARE “NOT OF GOD.” (JOHN 8:47)

There is no neutral position. Now is your hour to truly repent and become wholly in love with Jesus (Revelation 3:15-16).

“He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.” Matthew 12:30

Any people, society celebrating sin is under divine judgment from the unchanging God – just as was Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19).

“I Desire Fruit that May Abound to Your Account” [podcast]


“Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.” Philippians 4:17

Did you realize that as a born again disciple of Jesus, that you have an “account” in Heaven?

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”  Matthew 6:19-21

Laying up treasure in Heaven and not wasting it on this fleeting life, is the command and the wisdom of God.

“But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.”  1 Chronicles 29:14

To some I would say:

“So let me get this straight…. you attributed your own earnings for your whole life to yourself and so now, how dare someone suggest you allow other saints to help fund God’s work, to lay up treasure in Heaven …..”

“But as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.” 1 Samuel 30:24 

Some seem to take offense to anyone receiving help from God’s people… which is 100% selfish and pride filled…. in more than one way:

1. The work is expanded with greater funding;

2. God’s people are laying up treasure in Heaven when they choose to give.

This all seems to indicate that you are far too involved in the “ministry” you are doing. It’s all about you, not Christ.

Think about how Jesus and Paul and John had numerous “fellowhelpers to the truth.” Every member was free and able to function fully in our LORD’s work.

“We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.” 3 John 8

Apparently some bogusly believe, pretend to be more righteous than Jesus and the apostle Paul by denying love offerings to do the work of God.

These men are actually preventing God’s people from laying up treasure in heaven and acting self-righteous about it.

Apparently you seek to be the hero who serves yourself in many ways instead of Christ and others and therefore you wish all of your labor be attributed to your own account in Heaven. Philippians 4:17 says:  “Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.”

We give the Gospel “without charge”…. and yet that does not in any way negate all that the Bible says about giving and laying up treasure in Heaven: “What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel” (1 Corinthians 9:18). This would mean that he doesn’t ask for money and yet that doesn’t mean he didn’t receive such help nor that what he taught in verses 1-14 are negated.

Regrettably, there are men doing ministry who are babes in understanding this Bible 101 doctrine of giving, of stewardship.

Isn’t it time we get out of the way and let those sitting on the bench get on the field, participate, lay up treasure in Heaven?

Do we not understand how Christ told us His kingdom works…. that when we give, it connects our hearts closer to Christ and His work? See Matthew 6:21.

Following our heretical beliefs instead of the Bible on this topic of stewardship would have thus far resulted in the deprivation of so very many beloved needy people here in Mexico. It would have cheated them out of many blessings…. food and the Word, salvation, etc.

Remember, such as was the case with the few loaves and fishes. Jesus takes what we give to Him, to His work, and multiplies it. Do the math. John 6. Five thousand men were fed out of 5 loaves and 2 fishes and yet there was much food (more than they began with) left over, surplus (2 Corinthians 9:8; Ephesians 3:20).

“Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.” John 6:13

Regrettably, we have novices who are abandoning the truth of God due to others perverting it….(2 Corinthians 2:17).

Are they making excuse for not giving?

The LORD “giveth us richly all things to enjoy.”

Every good and every perfect gift on this earth is from God and is a mere foretaste of glory divine!

“The living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy.” 1 Timothy 6:17

Does God’s Word not warn us that God’s people are to “behold” both “the goodness and the SEVERITY of God” lest we be “cut off”?

“Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” Romans 11:22

LORD, we thank You now for EVERY good and perfect blessing You alone have provided—beginning with the ultimate, the unspeakable, the unfathomable gift of Your only begotten Son who died, was buried, and raised again from the dead to justify us (Romans 4:25)! We love You LORD Jesus!

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” James 1:17
