Ladies, Mothers, Your Little Boys are Under Attack!

Maybe you have not thought about it much, but there is a war taking place all around us every single day. If your spiritual eyes were opened for just a few minutes you would see a spiritual landscaped dotted with bomb craters, fox holes, and trenches. Dead and dying men and women litter the ground. Bullets are whizzing by and the cries of the wounded are deafening. This battlefield is as real as any of our past – as real as Gettysburg or Normandy.

This Great War is being fought on many fronts and what I am writing about today is just one of those arenas of conflict, but to be sure it is a vital one because it involves our families and whatsoever concerns them will have an impact on our society. This battle is being fought for the control of our boys – it is a War against Masculinity. Certainly there are also battles being fought for the control of our girls, and I will deal with that subject in a future article, but it is vital that we understand what is taking place in our society and even more importantly what is taking place in our churches. It is a war against masculinity and if we continue losing this battle then we will lose future generations of young men.

One of the most lambasted and hated roles in modern society is that of the male, especially if that male is patterned after the Bible and what a traditional man should be. This war did not start last year, but has been going on since the beginning. In recent years we have seen the fight escalate. Much of what we saw unfolding in recent years on the news concerning the “Me Too” movement was about the future control of the world at large and not just about male oppression of females. To be sure, there definitely were some very bad men that had used their positions of power to take advantage of women, and those men needed to be arrested, charged, and convicted for their crimes. There is no argument

there. What was being reported openly needed to be aired out and exposed. At the same time we must recognize that the Feminist Movement, which is NOT about true femininity, politicized these glaring crimes into a grab for power. In their estimation men have forfeited their God-given position of leadership and these Feminists believe they could do a better job of leading the world. Again, do not mistake me here. There is never any reason for a man to mistreat and take advantage of a woman. Such a man is not a true man, and he should be treated as a criminal for his bestial behavior.

Today the soft man is now held up as the model for men to aspire to. Gone is the rugged man that would go out and bag wild game for the family table. These rugged men were men that would swing a hammer with resolve, wield an axe with fidelity, and carry a gun in a holster on their hip. The only gun that most boys know how to use today is a fake gun attached to cord on their Xbox. Very few shoot rabbits – now they shoot pixelated zombies and demons. Such soft activities have reduced manhood to a fantasy that can only exist in the minds of boys, and unfortunately when this fantasy finally explodes into the real world it usually does so violently in a school shooting. If these boys would have had a real man in their lives that would have taught them the truth about guns then we would not see this problem we see so prevalent today.

With complete blindness society blames a piece of metal for the violence and seeks to eliminate these acts of violence by regulating guns. The problem is in the hearts of boys that do not know how to be true men. The problem is in homes that have no real male leadership. A piece of manufactured metal and plastic is not the problem. The problem lies in the minds of those holding it and pulling the trigger. If we want to change the culture of violence we are going to need to change the minds of boys, and yes it is almost always boys that perpetrate these horrible acts of wanton violence, we are going to need to correct the masculine mindset.

Fatherless homes are driving the rise in crime around the world and especially here in the USA. Over and over again boys on the cusp of becoming adults fall into groups with other boys and fill their spare time with mischief. This mischief turns into delinquency, which turns into petty theft, which then morphs into assault. It goes from bad to worse. It moves from minor incursions of criminal activity to extreme behavior that destroys lives. Women are often viewed pornographically as objects of pleasure rather than real human beings with feelings. At this point societies answer for these juvenile delinquents is a prison sentence, which compounds the problem and solidifies it in the hearts of young men. When these boys try to transition back into society they are now angry young men and are more likely to do even worse than they had done before. It is a vicious circle that only feeds the problem.

For those that do not take the route of crime, and are somehow able to keep the fantasy of repressed manhood under control in their hearts, they find themselves acting more womanly than manly in their dealings with other people. This leads some boys into gender confusion and homosexuality. The militant homosexual movement loves this turn of events for our society is now cranking out an endless supply of fodder for their sexual perversions. Now we have boys that are not even sure they are boys. To compensate for this newly created problem, the liberals are creating new genders that go beyond anatomy. Some parents have bought into this lie hook, line, and sinker thinking they are a newly enlightened race of people smarter than all of humanity’s history and they are allowing their children to choose their gender when they are at the wise old age of three or four. Of course these kids are not mature enough to take out a loan at a bank, drive a car, or even vote – but they are mature enough to choose if they are male, female, bi-sexual, asexual, abimegender, absorgener, biogender, bigender, caprigender, femfluid, genderflora, invisigender, non-binary…and I must stop for the list of genders is now in the hundreds. Yep these children are definitely mature enough to choose their gender at four (sarcasm). Who in the world makes up this lunacy?

The fact of the matter is that God chooses a child’s gender at inception when the chromosomes of the newly developing child is aligned with either male or female. Sexuality is determined by gender and children should be raised in our society based on the designation assigned to them by our Creator at birth. Sure there are some extremely rare mutations that occur, but these are aberrations and not to be applied to humanity as a whole. We do not do this if a person is born with six fingers on each hand – you only see this mutations being assigned to sexuality in our society because of political correctness. There is no legitimate science behind these false claims. It is all about grant money, posturing in the press, and appeasing the powerful elite. Be careful not believe everything you hear, even if it looks good on paper or a computer screen. Common sense goes a long way in rejecting these pseudo sciences that seem to bolster the stupidity of the current state of gender confusion taking place.

This is a war on masculinity – make no mistake about it. Men are cowering down in fear. Who knows who will be next on the radar of radicalism that it will manufacture crimes in order to assert its agenda? I wouldn’t want to be a Supreme Court judge in today’s climate of hostility. Very few are going to line up and take that kind of abuse, especially if they are a male. The feminists have backed men into a corner, just where they wanted them. In the future it will be much easier to nominate women to the Supreme Court than men. Every man is going to have to run a gauntlet of false accusations, school yearbook reviews, innuendo, and anything else the left-leaning men-haters can come up with. This is just another part of the war on masculinity.

True masculinity is rooted in being a gentleman – and I am not talking about the men that frequent Gentlemen’s Clubs, for those men are NOT gentlemen. A true gentleman is a Bible Man. A true gentleman is a man that knows how to be tough when it is needed, but also knows how to be tender and treat a woman like a lady.

The true Gentleman is a man that displays his God-given calling to provide for his wife and family. That is, if he is a married man. A single man can be a gentleman as well. The married man knows that God has called him to provide the necessities of life, which also includes a protective arm around his wife and children. The wife that knows the value of a strong man basks in his safe hug and does not despise it. No matter how radicalized women are becoming, there is something still deep down in the heart of a woman that still enjoys the strength of a good man.

When you think back throughout the history of men you can see a commonality that persists from recorded time. Men were providers. Men were hunters. Men were warriors. Men were builders. Men were leaders. Men initiated other men into the society of what it means to be a man – in other words: it takes a man to make a man. It also takes a woman, and that first woman is a little boy’s mother. The combination of the Father and the Mother in the right measure molds and makes masculinity. Every man is a makeup of the love of a mother and the strength of a father. When these two elements of marriage are correctly applied to a little boy they will manufacture a man. Sure there are examples of boys raised in homes that did not turn out well. Sometimes these homes were not everything that everyone thought they were and on the surface all appeared well when in reality it was not. Other times the best laid plans went awry. Sometimes they do. As a rule though, when the home is Biblically sound it is more likely to produce the best of both male and female. This is why we must fight for Biblically sound families.

The war on masculinity is really a war on the family. Everything from marriage, to femininity, to masculinity is under attack. We must defend the Biblical definition of manhood religiously. We cannot concede this battle to our enemy.

Fathers it is time to teach our boys to be men. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being a man. Boys should be taught to be proud of who God created them to be. Teach them to respect authority. Teach them to work hard. Teach them to do their chores. Teach them to treat women with respect. Teach them basic survival skills. Teach them to hunt and fish. Teach them to throw a ball. Teach them to pray. Teach them to love the Bible. Teach them to love the Church.

No boy should hang his head because he is a boy. No boy should be ridiculed because he wants to go out and play in the mud. Let the boys be boys and pick earthworms out of the ground. Let them get some dirt under the fingernails. Let them go out behind the house and build a fort out of sticks, rubbish, and saplings. When they understand them correctly let their toys be pocket knives, machetes, hammers, and BB guns.

Fathers take off of work early and take that boy camping. Buy a bass boat and take him fishing. Take him to the shooting range and teach him how to handle a gun properly. When he is at home don’t you allow that boy to mistreat his mother or sisters. Train him in all of the right ways. Dad, let your son see that there is no shame in crying –especially in a worship service at Church. Let those boys see you take their mother in your arms and give her a kiss of affection. Let the words “I Love You” be common in your home.

If your boy is too soft then find the problem and change it while he is young. There is nothing wrong with the rugged male. If you have to then throw the Nintendo out of the house, burn the skinny jeans, and buy him some nice blue flannel. This is a war and some drastic measures are in order. If your son is the baby in the family don’t let his Momma and Sisters baby him so much that he never grows out of it. Let him be a boy. Sound boys turn into sound men.

There is so much more that I could say here in this article, and I am sure that I will say more in the future about this. It is imperative that we raise our boys to be men. We must instill in them the virtues of real manhood. The world does not need any more sissies or any more thugs. Both are undesirable. What this world needs is Biblical examples of what a Godly man is. If this is done correctly it will go a long way towards getting our families and our nation back on track.

    I think also that what is sorely missing in our society is a right of passage for young boys (around 13 years old) to go through, which would then officially bestow him with the title of “man”. Many cultures have this, but sadly, the United States does not. This rite of passage would involve some activity that requires the conquering of fear. This would cause young men to stand tall and appropriate the qualities of manhood you have listed.

“Warn them from Me”: The 3 Things Paul did to Protect God’s People [podcast]

The 3 Things Paul did to Protect God’s People [podcast]


Jesus and His holy apostles often rebuked and exposed false leaders and false doctrine (Matthew 23; Acts 13:10; 20:29-31; Galatians 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2:6, 15, etc.). Therefore we know that part of following Jesus includes doing the same. In fact, the body of Christ is mandated to do just that (Romans 16:17-18; Philippians 1:17; Jude 3-4).

PWT = Preach, WARN, Teach

“Whom we PREACH, WARNING every man, and TEACHING every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:” Colossians 1:28

Did you catch what the apostle Paul did to prepare the church to meet Christ?

  • Preach
  • WARN
  • Teach

Any man not guarding, not protecting Christ’s flock, by warning of false teachers and false doctrine, is himself a wolf!

Simply put, it doesn’t matter what you think: The LORD has commanded that Satan’s ministers, his human emissaries, be exposed. Time to shut up and obey! (2 Corinthians 11:12-15)

Lest someone think that warning is a cover for slander, let’s address that.

There is a difference between warning and slander. Warning is to be distinguished from slander. William Penn said it correctly when he recorded these words of wisdom:

“Believe nothing against another but on good authority; and never report what may hurt another, unless it be a greater hurt to some other to conceal it.” ~William Penn

The love of God in us will compel us to warn. Firstly this is done in obedience to the LORD and for the protection and care of those being warned. Warning is divinely mandated in order to protect His beloved sheep.

2 Corinthians 5:9-11, 14-21

“Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 10  For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 11  Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. … 14 For the love of Christ constraineth (compels) us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: 15  And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. 16  Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. 17  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; 19  To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”

“The Apostle had arrived at the deliberate conclusion and judgment that the ‘all’ who realized what Christ had done for them (and he among them) must live with as much devotion toward Him as others toward themselves. A new world had been opened by Christ’s resurrection. All things had become new. Let us live in daily touch with that world of faith and glory, refusing to be judged by the old standards. It is clear that the reconciliation of the world is as complete as God can make it, but it is for us to urge men to fall in with and accept God’s proposals.” FB Meyer

“Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we the more earnestly persuade men to seek his favour; and as God knoweth this, so, I trust, ye know it in your own consciences.” John Wesley

It’s a blessing to be humbled, to be brought low. Sometimes we need to be embarrassed (Proverbs 6:23). There’s a place for it. Paul openly rebuked Peter publicly (Galatians 2). That wound worked to the glory of God and the eternal good of Peter.

“For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:” Romans 6:23 

Keep in mind that each one of us are at times in need of being admonished, corrected, or even rebuked…. it’s “the way of life” as long as we are in this world and it’s out of the love of our God and for our own eternal good.

“As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.” Revelation 3:19

Did God command us to warn the wicked?

Ezekiel 3:7 “Warn them from me.”

“So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and WARN THEM FROM ME.” Ezekiel 33:7

What would you think of the father who lived on a busy street and refused to warn his children to stay away from that street?

“Whom we PREACH, WARNing every man, and TEACHing every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:” Colossians 1:28

Were Jesus, His prophets, and apostles trying to harm the body of Christ when they often warned of and exposed wolves and their false teachings by name? No, he sought to get the cancer out of the body of Christ so it couldn’t spread (Romans 16:17-18, etc.). Beware of the wolf defenders who refuse to believe the wolves they follow are antichrist enemies of the LORD (2 John 10-11).

“Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.” Isaiah 58:1

Most warnings in God’s Word are to the backslidden – those who after being Christ’s, have departed from the faith – and also the counterfeits who have a mere form of godliness.

Jesus says, “If ye love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15).

Isaiah 59

“Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. 3  For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. 4  None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.”

“Thy prophets (leaders) have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered (uncovered) thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity (bondage); but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.” Lamentation 2:14

God instructed us to “mark” false leaders. Jesus is the Great Shepherd of the sheep and intends for them to be protected from being lured away (Hebrews 13:20; Romans 16:17-18).

“Christians do not judge the world. Christians must judge those who SAY they live for Christ. Wolves will not spare the flock where pretenders go unchallenged/unjudged.” Robert Lorne

Paul had the heart of the Savior as we should. He cried “with tears” for three years day and night over the protection of Jesus’ sheep and said He gave them all the counsel of God, not just some of it, to protect them (Acts 20:20-32).

Ignoring and deciding we are going to selectively pick out what we want to preach and reject the rest that WE don’t like is anything but the cross. This reveals the heart of a self-serving tare. A person truly in the cross says LORD, “NOT my will but thine be done,” and not “I’ll decide for myself what I’m going to preach” (Luke 22:42).

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove (expose) them.” Ephesians 5:11

After promising that we are His and we shall be persecuted as He was, then our LORD informs us that He is going to expose darkness and that we are to be a part of this process as we stand and speak His His light of truth into the darkness of our day. And to fear not anyone except Him (v 26-28).

“Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. 27 What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. 28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” Matthew 10:26-28 

Jesus instructed us to know that He will bring all darkness, every dark deed and evil doer into the light (v26), and told us to shout it, to expose it to all from the housetops (v27), and to do so fearlessly as concerns mere sinful men – the guilty ones who will persecute you for exposing them (v28).

How are we to warn them? what is to be our disposition in warning others as the LORD commanded? One thing we should keep in mind is that God wants us dealing biblically – with the desire to restore – and without personal wrath (Galatians 6:1-2).

“For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.” James 1:20

It’s a scary thing to NOT warn the wicked….

“When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to WARN the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.” Ezekiel 3:18

“And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.” Jude 22-23

Read these 2 verses closely. Notice how if you die in sin – no matter what your past relationship with God was – you are going to hell irrevocably. Enduring to the end of your life on earth with Christ, in an abiding relationship, is essential to eternal glory. Summation: The LORD judges people on their spiritual state at the moment of death. Share. Repent now heretic.

Overcoming that Old Serpent, Called the Devil, and Satan [podcast]



“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Revelation 12:9

“That old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world” never left the garden of God’s creation and he won’t till Jesus slam dunks him into the bottomless pit (Genesis 3; Revelation 12; 20). He must be overcome “by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death” (Revelation 12:11). God is able. Satan 

“He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.” Ecclesiastes 10:8

“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:1-7

In the scope of past, present, and future history – HIS-story – nothing is over till Jesus wins!

“For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. … 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 15:25-26, 57

The Cross

Personally I was not blessed to begin seeing our LORD’s victory in my personal life until Jesus’ cross message began to seep into my heart, thoughts and mind.

The record of Holy Scripture assures us that our LORD Jesus conquered sin, death, hell, and Satan (1 John 3:8). But how? He overcome by the cross.

Jesus conquered sin and death by dying.

“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;” Hebrews 2:14

If this is the first time you are hearing this truth, don’t be ashamed. It’s new to all of us due to the original Gospel message of the cross has been lost among most who claim Christ. | The Cross 

Camping out on the message of the cross will assure you are quickened to “seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.” (1 Chronicles 16:11) Keeping thine eyes and heart upon His cross message will hasten you to Him, to His cross, to the death of self that Christ might raise you upward in His holy power and glory.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn (grain, seed) of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 25  He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26  If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.” John 12:24-26

The cross truly is a “Let go and let God” economy, experience – crying, declaring “Jesus You MUST increase but I MUST decrease!”

As the apostle Paul discovered, you are NOT sufficient and yet His grace is sufficient for your life in Him.

“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10  Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.” 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

PRAYER: Father, please grant me eye salve to see Your holy truth and the many wolves that now are disguised in sheep’s clothing and leading many to hell. Help me, Jesus! Knowing my utter poverty of spirit, I this moment turn afresh to You fully, asking You to have mercy on me and wash away all my sins. Grant the eyes of my heart discernment as only You can, as I walk closely with You. I choose this day to deny my own self-will and desires and ask You to consume me with Your wisdom, power, and grace. LORD Jesus, please bless me to know You intimately. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

“Shall I not visit for these things?” [podcast]


Widespread Corruption – Evidence of God’s Judgment on a Nation

IMPORTANT: Read Matthew 24 and Luke 21 this week. Jesus foretold this would all be happening right before He returns! Jesus is coming. Get ready.

A cursory introduction to Jeremiah 5-7. God’s people were in rebellion to Him and reaping what they’d been sowing (Galatians 6:7-8). Read, pour prayerfully over these chapters this week beloved. This message is designed to launch the God fearing saint to pour over this passage as they examine their hearts, their lives before Him honestly.

“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you. 26 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. 28 They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. 29 Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? 30 A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; 31 The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” Jeremiah 5:25-31

Judgment on America for the Rebellion of those who Falsely Claim to be Saved

“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?” Revelation 6:9-10

The LORD blesses those who are with Him. Anyone who forsakes Him will be forsaken by Him.

“The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and IF ye seek him, he will be found of you; but IF ye forsake him, he will forsake you.” 2 Chronicles 15:2

The word “if” in God’s Word denotes a choice that will be made.

The LORD is not with you if you are not with Him – doing life on HIS stated terms. That’s exactly why He gave you His recorded Word in tangible form. Read John 14-16.

Notice “IF ye seek him” and not if you go to church or just claim to be His. Are you seeking His holy face “continually”?

“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11

“Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: 13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.” Joel 2:12-13

“O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. 2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.” Hosea 14:1-2

Notice here in the verse below how setting, allowing wicked things into our eye gates leads to turning aside, departing from Christ, backsliding. Notice how the psalmist views backsliding as a plague. And it sure is. Millions irrevocably occupy the bowels of eternal damnation right this moment and forever who made one bad decision which led to their backsliding.
