ALL sex, lusting, lustful activity of the mind or otherwise outside of the marriage between a MAN and a WOMAN is sin in the eyes of a holy God. that pansy you call “pastor” refuses to preach God’s word on this because he’s in it for the money! SEX is reserved for the married man and woman in their private bed chamber and all others will be judged – eternally damned!

IS YOUR prayer “an ABOMINATION to the LORD”? (Proverbs 28:9) Your praying is absolutely “an abomination” to the LORD if you are not hearing and obeying His Word.

“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.” Proverbs 28:9

“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” Hebrews 13:4

A “whoremonger” is one who mongers or searches, lusts after a woman he’s not married to for illicit sex.

Sex is of divine design and for 1 man and 1 woman in their own privacy. Without exception, every fornicator, adulterer is going to the lake of fire irrevocably (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Revelation 21:8, etc.).

ANY and ALL sex outside of that between a married MAN and woman, is sin-fornication.

Question Sent In:

Do you believe that we are saved IN our sins?

Is there any sin one must stop in order to be saved?

Or to make it even plainer:

Does someone who is viewing pornography have to stop that sin in order to receive forgiveness from God? or does God forgive them while they are still doing it?

Response:

The Greek words from which we get the word “fornication” or “fornicator” is porneia and pornos Any sex outside of holy matrimony is fornication. Jesus says: “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28)

“Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.” 1 Corinthians 6:18

Sin that is not overcome is the proof of a rebellious heart. All of Holy Scripture testifies to this truth. Some sin if obviously very difficult to overcome and so we must be quickened in His holy fear to repent afresh, return to our LORD as “first love,” fast, pray, and choose to have a heart after Him (Rev. 2:4-5; Isa. 58; Hosea 10:12, etc.).

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13

Someone watching pornography is a fornicator in the eyes of a holy God and Judge, and according to His Word, will not enter the kingdom of Heaven if he is still watching it because he has not repented (1 Cor. 6:9-10; Rev. 21:8; 2 Cor. 12:21, etc.)…. Jesus made it crystal clear that only the overcomers will be with Him eternally (Rev. 2-3). All who die in sin will be in the lake of fire forever (Rev. 21:8, 27; 22:14). A person who dies in his sin, having that “EVIL heart of unbelief,” is not abiding in Christ and will be cast into the fires of hell (Jn. 15:1-6; Heb. 3:6, 12-15; 10:26-39). This is regardless of any past relationship with the LORD. He will spend eternity in the lake of fire. The wages of sin is still death (Rom. 6:23).

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:” Hebrews 12:14

Without personal holiness no man shall see the LORD (Heb. 12:14). Jesus is coming back for a church that is holy, without the spot of sin (Eph. 5:25-27).

“But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; 4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger (a man who seeks out sex from a a woman he’s not married to), nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.” Ephesians 5:3-7

Upon studying and considering the full-counsel of God’s Word, we must conclude that those who do not overcome sin, namely specifically named as profusely offensive to the LORD (Gal. 5:19-21), simply do not having saving faith always produces personal holiness, bringing forth fruit meet for repentance or consistent with a changed life (Matthew 3:7-8; 7:21; Lk. 6:46; Titus 1:16; 2:11-12; 3:14; James 1:22, etc.).

“And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.” 1 John 3:5-6

The person who rebels against this truth loves his sin and despises the LORD he deceitfully claims to know.

“He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” 1 John 2:4

“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.” Titus 1:16

“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. … And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.” Revelation 21:8, 27

The way a person lives reveals who they love and “No man can serve two masters.” (Matthew 6:24)

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” Romans 6:16

There’s no sin Christ can’t conquer in our lives and yet He must have our participation in laying down our lives. May God bless each of us to cry out to Him, to begin to love Him with all of our being, to worship Him in spirit and in truth, to be blessed to hunger and thirst for more of Christ.

Have you ever just cried out something like “Jesus please help!”

1 Thessalonians 4

1Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 3For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; 5Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: 6That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 7For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 8He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.” 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

Is Masturbation Sin?

QUESTION: HOW could any person masturbate successfully without thinking about the opposite sex in a lustful way? What did Jesus say? Memorize Matthew 5:28.

The Root and the Cure

“For he that is dead is freed from sin.” Romans 6:7

The cross is the divine solution to all sin and anyone peddling any other “solution” is a lying wolf. Now stop to think about how many pretend preachers are not preaching the original Gospel solution for all sin and the only way to follow Jesus – the cross, the crucified life.

Pour prayerfully over Romans each morning upon waking and declare the divinely inspired words of Galatians 2:20, daily, until they own you and then keep doing it till you are with the King or you will not be with Him!

The sins of uncleanness, self-idolatry, and the love of self are the root causes of those who view pornography. The answer the LORD gives is to be filled with His Spirit and crucified to the sin nature, via the daily cross. His Holy Spirit is able to dominate sin in our lives instead of our lives being dominated by sin. Memorize Romans 6:14 and 8:13-14. There is full victory over all sin by the grace of Jesus Christ and power of the Holy Ghost (Romans 6; 8:13-14, etc.). Speak and pray these Bible truths into your life. Cry out to Jesus.

Any person who views such defilement is disconnected from the One who told us “Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 14As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: 15But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;  16Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.” (1 Peter 1:13-16)

Jesus told us that “fornication” and “adulteries” come from the heart of a man and that these sins “defile the man” which simply means they make him unclean in the eyes of God (rejected). God will hear the cry of the truly repentant and deliver him. Complete and total victory awaits that captive who will submit his life to the LORD (1 Corinthians 15:57; James 4:6-10).

“And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.” Mark 7:20-23

God looks on the hearts of men and those who are committing these sins are defiled or unclean in His holy eyes (1 Samuel 16:7). They will not enter into His eternal abode (Galatians 5:19-21; Hebrews 12:14-15; Revelation 21:8, 27; 22:14-15, etc.).

Read and do Isaiah 58.

I found this and thought it was good:

“In his book The Johns, Victor Malarek reveals the motivations of men who buy the services of 
prostitutes. In most cases, pornography precedes the transaction. The men watch porn, fantasise about the experience they want, then find a woman who will act out what they desire. The deed follows the fantasy. Many of us may start thinking how ‘sick’ such men are, as we would never get involved in such ‘filthy’ acts. Jesus confronts such an attitude. While we may not have engaged in the deed of prostitution or viewed pornography, few of us are innocent of lustful fantasy. It is not wrong to be sexually attracted to another person (temptation is not sin—Hebrews 4:15). God made us sexual beings who long for intimacy. What Jesus condemns is illicit lust—purposely looking at someone other than one’s spouse to stimulate and entertain sexual desire. The legalists of Jesus’ day had a religion of deeds. In one’s mind, the fantasies could run wild so long as one didn’t ‘do the deed’ of adultery (Exodus 20:14). Jesus taught a religion of the heart. Adultery starts with a fantasy, making the fantasy a sin itself (Matthew 5:28). A man can look lustfully at a woman without touching her. She can still feel like simply an object. Jesus’ remedy to lustful fantasy is radical and practical. The heart follows the eyes (Job 31:7). If your eyes are leading you to sin, then go blind! (Matthew 5:29). Shut your eyes. Divert them. Take them elsewhere before your heart follows them. Forgo the illicit pleasures of this life for the sake of the next (v.29). Jesus’ teaching here is for both sexes. All of us are to cultivate holy imaginations, viewing people as people rather than just objects to be used.” —Sheridan Voysey

***Homosexuality is a form of fornication and is an abomination says the JUDGE of your eternal soul. ALL sex outside of marriage is sin. The true body of Christ will never stop saying what GOD (our Judge) says. It’s HIS judgment. Argue with Him or just repent and turn to Christ before it’s too late.  It’s HIS judgment. Argue with Him or just repent and turn to Christ before it’s too late.  You can bicker, whine, complain, and legislate yourself right into the lake of fire in your sin if you wish, but one this is certain – You will never change the One who made you on this issue. It’s non-negotiable and you will soon stand before Him to give account for every thought, intent, and action in this life.

“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Leviticus 18:22 

Any questions? Sodomy is perversion, period. Abortion is legalized by mere sinful man and yet it is the cold-blooded, premeditated murder and God is going to judge every single person who doesn’t stand against it and the perversion of sodomy/homosexuality. Judgment Day is on the way – for you – ready or not.

Sodomy is sin according to the very Judge of our eternal souls. You must choose between God and sinful men on this issue. God has clearly spoken and called sodomy/all homosexuality an “abomination.” (Leviticus 18:22)

The book Lie of the Ages thoroughly addresses this topic according to the whole Counsel of God’s Word.

Got Breakthrough? Here it is!

Fresh Start with God

***Homosexuality is a form of fornication and is an abomination says the JUDGE of your eternal soul. ALL sex outside of marriage is sin. The true body of Christ will never stop saying what GOD (our Judge) says. It’s HIS judgment. Argue with Him or just repent and turn to Christ before it’s too late.   Fornication

America’s Path to Destruction According to Holy Scripture [podcast]


Sadly, so many today, who claim to be Christians, spend more time, money, and energy seeking to save the sinking ship called America (a corporation under which they are slaves) than they do obeying Christ’s Great Commission command to teach His Word and preach the Gospel to the lost (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20). They have chosen America over the LORD (Matthew 6:24; 12:30). So very man “church” members and yet Jesus Christ is not their “first love.” (Revelation 2:4-5) Patriotism is their idol, vainly believing they can vote away divine judgment. Most of their time, money, and energy is wasted on the futility of the temporal. Nothing will save America – no campaign, political party, voting block, or otherwise. God is judging America. It’s over as we once knew it.

God judges nations and has a timing, a frame of time, an “instant” including a beginning and ending point, where He judges nations (Jeremiah 18:7). And America is under His judgment, and it going to get much worse (Jeremiah 18).

America is under Divine Judgment

“This is exactly where we are! Things are about to wax worse and worse in this country! Jesus warned us a greater tribulation is coming (Mat 24:21). This world is becoming darker and darker. It will be a challenge to all who put their faith in Christ. Will our faith stand in the midst of severe persecution (1 Peter 1:6-9)? God will try it in the fire, subjecting it to intense heat. The ultimate goal is to purge out all unbelief and impurities. The genuineness of our faith can only be proved in the fire. During hard times of tribulations the lukewarm will drift away, but genuine faith will endure! And the reward will be final salvation (Mat 24:13).” Karen Cochran

The ultimate reason America is being destroyed is not, as some imagine, due to “bad leadership.” No. America is being destroy from within and without due to the rebellion of its people – the sin against God and refusal to repent. Read Jeremiah 18 and Isaiah 1.

Destruction Comes when leaders are allowed to pervert justice!

“The heads (leaders) thereof judge for reward (take bribes), and the priests (religious leaders) thereof teach for hire, and the prophets (religious leaders) thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us. 12  Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.” Micah 3:11-12

Government Servants and Bribes

“The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts (bribes) overthroweth it.” Proverbs 29:4

Inflation Revelation 6

“And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.” Revelation 6:6

Excessive Inflation is judgment.

“They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.” Ezekiel 7:19

Timeline of Impending Doom

Someone is saying “But brother I’ve been listening to dreams and prophecies people are getting about our nation.”

Our hearts can deceive us (Proverbs 28:26; Jeremiah 17:9). We can only be fully “sure” by reading, studying, and knowing the “MORE SURE WORD of prophecy” which is the Holy Scriptures (2 Peter 1:19-21).

“God’s judgment is upon America. We have become Sodom’s sister (Ezekiel 16:46). It’s pride that has rooted itself in the hearts of the American people. And what brings destruction upon nations? Pride! Those who love Him will be looking for a new heaven and a new earth. This world is not our home.

This podcast nailed it biblically! America is defiled, clear to the core, with shocking wickedness. Are we ‘MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH’ ? (Revelation 17:5)? Is the United States the entity ‘having a golden cup’, luring people in by saying “We are the greatest country on earth’ ? (Revelation 17:4) Although we may look appealing because we are supposedly a wealthy country, we are full of abominations, rebellion, sin, pride and full of blasphemy against a holy and righteous God!

We are experiencing His wrath. A nation cannot parade around saying it is ok to change your sex, cut off parts of little children, kill babies up to birth, kill their very own family members, teach pornography to children, mock God, reject the gospel and not expect judgment to fall!” Karen Cochran

THE DISCIPLE OF JESUS SHOULD VIEW HISTORY, INCLUDING WHERE A NATION STANDS THIS DAY, BY “THE MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY” WHICH IS THE HOLY SCRIPTURES (Isaiah 46:9-10; 57:15; Romans 15:4; 2 Peter 1:19-21).

Looking at the USA through the lens of Scripture is what is important. We have murdered over 60 million precious innocent babies and called it “choice” but God calls it murder and commands us “Thou not kill.” (Exodus 20:13). The US is over and has been for a long time, as we once knew it. Military men: This isn’t the same USA you and I both signed up to serve. This isn’t the same USA we were born and raised in.

This list of sins in the above passage begins with these 3:

PFA = Pride, Fulness of Bread, and Abundance of idleness.

The Sins of Sodom:

Sins Jerusalem cited for in Ezekiel 16:49-51:

  • Pride (arrogance),
  • Fulness of Bread (gluttony, hoarding),
  • Abundance of Idleness (idle, lazy),
  • did not help those in need due to preoccupation with self-worship (not generous in spreading God’s wealth to His people and work)
  • haughty
  • committed abomination (rampant fornication – just as in the days leading up to the Noahic flood. See Genesis 6)

In the bulleted sins listed above from this revealing Ezekiel 16 passage, did you notice the progression?

Though it culminated in sodomy, yet not one sex sin is even specifically mentioned in this list of Sodom’s sins in Ezekiel 16. Does this not align perfectly with the judgment we see in Romans 1, how “when they knew God, they glorified him not as God” and were unthankful, further enriching themselves while they ignored others?

“Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful (they were ungrateful); but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.” Romans 1:21

A fresh reading of Romans 1 reveals the root sins that preceded the sexual sins which immediately go before divine judgment. See Romans 1:18-32.

The sins that darken the hearts of those who once “knew God” and lead to the ultimate abomination of sodomy/homosexuality are pride, gluttony, idleness, and refusing to be generous givers to believers in need, etc.

Let’s Look Again at the Root, the Gateway Sins of the People of Sodom and Gomorrah:

PFA listed in Ezekiel 16:49-51:

  • Pride (arrogance),
  • Fulness of Bread (gluttony),
  • Abundance of Idleness (idle, lazy),
  • Like the fake religionists priest and Levite of Jesus’ Good Samaritan teaching, they did not help those in need due to preoccupation with self-worship (not generous in spreading God’s wealth to His people and work)

“The deceptions are growing stronger and becoming greater in number, leading us to the ultimate deception which is the antichrist! Beware, that if possible even the elect will be deceived (Mat 24:24). See 1 Corinthians 10:12.

“Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.”

“America’s root sin is pride. They call us the greatest country on earth. We celebrate gay pride. American’s trust in their pride. We have pushed God out of every part of society, yet still believe in our pride, He is blessing us, because after all, we are the greatest country on earth! We are arrogant and boastful in the power of our own might. Trump has recently built a golden alter to himself and I have seen some pastor’s bowing down. We no longer fear God! God’s judgment is falling, from heaven, upon us! He will spare a remnant just as he always promised in the OT! Faithful believer’s who only bow to Him, seeking His face, keeping themselves unspotted from the world, and remaining pure and clean. Those are His true remnant will be given the fountain of life and never thirst again (Rev 21:6).” Karen Cochran

HERE’S WHAT BEING FULFILLED, WHAT’S COMING TO PASS RIGHT NOW

“And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11  And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12  And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13  But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14  And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:10-14

In the midst of the prophesied great apostasy we are in, Christ’s Remnant are…

  • Waxing hotter in their love for God v12
  • Enduring to the end v13
  • Preaching Christ’s kingdom Gospel to the lost v14

Famous Last Words of Atheists [podcast]


“Wow! That should put the fear of God in anyone who listens to this podcast! I know it did me! Powerful!” Karen

“The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.” Psalms 14:1

I saw where a brother in Christ asks the so-called “atheists” he meets “Don’t you miss Him?”  In a gentle loving voice he asks them if they miss God. This rings true because we know at some point in their past, God was showing them His kindness, drawing them (John 12:32). He is still showing them kindness in that they are still alive (Romans 2:4).

Think about that. God informed us that all men, with no exception, know inside that He exists. This is why He said that “they are without excuse” (Romans 1:20).

I’ve seen several testimonies lately of people who previously called themselves  “atheist” and are now saved by the blood of Jesus Christ! Keep preaching His glorious saving Gospel beloved saints. He’s coming soon.

Fearful Last Words:

CAESAR BORGIA – Italian nobleman, politician, and cardinal:

“While I lived, I provided for everything but death; now I must die, and am unprepared to die.”

THOMAS HOBBS – Political philosopher:

“I say again, if I had the whole world at my disposal, I would give it to live one day. I am about to take a leap into the dark.”

THOMAS PAYNE – Leading atheistic writer in American colonies:

“Stay with me, for God’s sake; I cannot bear to be left alone, O Lord, help me! O God, what have I done to suffer so much? What will become of me hereafter? I would give worlds if I had them, that ‘The Age of Reason’ had never been published. O Lord, help me! Christ, help me! No, don’t leave; stay with me! Send even a child to stay with me; for I am on the edge of hell here alone. If ever the Devil had an agent, I have been that one.”

SIR THOMAS SCOTT – Chancellor of England:

“Until this moment I thought there was neither a God nor a hell. Now I know and feel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by the just judgment of the Almighty.”

VOLTAIRE – Famous anti-Christian atheist:

“…’I am abandoned by God and man.’ He said to his physician, Dr. Fochin: ‘I will give you half of what I am worth if you will give me six months of life.’ When he was told this was impossible, he said, ‘Then I shall die and go to hell!’ His nurse said: ‘For all the money in Europe I wouldn’t want to see another unbeliever die! All night long he cried for forgiveness.’

ROBERT INGERSOLL – American writer and orator of the book, Golden Age of Free Thought:

“O God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul from hell!”

DAVID HUME – Atheist philosopher famous for his religious skepticism … He cried aloud on his death bed:

“I am in flames!”

Witnessed said his desperation was a horrible scene.

NAPOLEON BONAPARTE – French emperor who … brought death to millions to satisfy his … selfish ambitions for world conquest:

“I die before my time, and my body will be given back to the earth. Such is the fate of him who has been called the great Napoleon. What an abyss between my deep misery and the eternal kingdom of Christ!”

SIR FRANCIS NEWPORT – Head of an English Atheist club, to those gathered around his deathbed:

“You need not tell me there is no God, for I know there is one, and that I am in his presence! You need not tell me there is no hell. I feel myself already slipping. Wretches, cease your idle talk about there being hope for me! I know I am lost forever! Oh, that fire! Oh, the insufferable pangs of hell! Oh, that I could lie for a thousand years upon the fire that is never quenched, to purchase the favor of God and be united to Him again. But it is a fruitless wish. Millions and millions of years will bring me no nearer the end of my torments than one poor hour. Oh, eternity, eternity forever and forever! Oh, the insufferable pangs of Hell!”

CHARLES IX – French king. Urged on by his mother, he gave the order for the massacre of the French Huguenots, in which 15,000 souls were slaughtered in Paris alone and 100,000 in other sections of France, for no other reason than that they loved Christ. … He finally died, bathed in blood bursting from his veins. To his physicians, he said in his last hours:

“Asleep or awake, I see the mangled forms of the Huguenots passing before me. They drop with blood. They point at their open wounds. Oh! That I had spared at least the little infants at the bosom! What blood! I know not where I am. How will all this end? What shall I do? I am lost forever! Oh, I have done wrong…” 

DAVID STRAUSS – Leading representative of German rationalism who spent a lifetime erasing belief in God:

“My philosophy leaves me utterly forlorn! I feel like one caught in the merciless jaws of an automatic machine, not knowing at what time one of its great hammers may crush me!”

JOSEF STALIN – Soviet revolutionary and politician. In a Newsweek interview with Svetlana, his daughter, she told of his death:

“My father died a difficult and terrible death … God grants an easy death only to the just. At what seemed the very last moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and cast a glance over everyone in the room. It was a terrible glance, insane or perhaps angry. His left hand was raised, as though he were pointing to something above and bringing down a curse on us all. The gesture was full of menace…the next morning he was dead.”

ANTON LEVEY – Satanic Bible author and high priest of the Satanic worship religion. … His dying words were:

“Oh my, oh my, what have I done, there is something very wrong.” – newzsteam. wordpress.com. December 19, 2017, by Brian Butler

ELIZABETH THE FIRST: 

“All my possessions for one moment of time.”

KURT COBAIN (suicide note): 

“Frances and Courtney, I’ll be at your altar. Please keep going Courtney, for Frances. For her life will be so much happier without me. I love you. I love you.”

LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN:

“Too bad, too bad! It’s too late!”

ANNE BOLEYN:

“O God, have pity on my soul. O God, have pity on my soul.”

PRINCE HENRY OF WALES:

“Tie a rope round my body, pull me out of bed, and lay me in ashes, that I may die with repentant prayers to an offended God. O! I in vain wish for that time I lost with you and others in vain recreations.”

SOCRATES: 

“All of the wisdom of this world is but a tiny raft upon which we must set sail when we leave this earth. If only there was a firmer foundation upon which to sail, perhaps some divine word.”

SIGMUND FREUD: 

“The meager satisfaction that man can extract from reality leaves him starving.”

TONY HANCOCK (British comedian):

“Nobody will ever know I existed. Nothing to leave behind me. Nothing to pass on. Nobody to mourn me. That’s the bitterest blow of all.”

PHILLIP III, King of France:

“What an account I shall have to give to God! How I should like to live otherwise than I have lived.”

LUTHER BURBANK: 

“I don’t feel good.”

Philosophical Last Words:

Aldous Huxley (humanist):

“It is a bit embarrassing to have been concerned with the human problem all one’s life and find at the end that one has no more to offer by way of advice than ‘Try and be a little kinder.’”

Karl Marx: 

“Go on, get out! Last words are for fools who haven’t said enough!”

Leonardo da Vinci: 

“I have offended God and mankind because my work did not reach the quality it should have.”

Tolstoy:

“Even in the valley of the shadow of death, two and two do not make six.”

Benjamin Franklin:

“A dying man can do nothing easy.”

Grotius:

“I have lived my life in a laborious doing of nothing.”

In Stark Contrast to the Wicked, the Righteous Die with Great Hope

“If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.” 1 Corinthians 15:19

“For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:” 1 Peter 3:18

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

The Persecution Podcast [podcast]


“Think it not strange” in 1 Peter 4 simply means to not be surprised. If you love the LORD you will want to hear all He says in His Word, including the reality of persecutions for Christ’s sake (John 8:47). Any man posing as a leader among God’s people and isn’t preaching regularly on the reality of Christian persecution, is absolutely an ear-tickling wolf! Run!

Sounds like our LORD is saying that WHATEVER, WHOEVER we lose in this life due to following Jesus, God is going to multiply back to us…

“And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. 28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee. 29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s, 30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. 31 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.” Mark 10:27-31

“He shall receive a hundred fold, houses, &c. – Not in the same kind: for it will generally be with persecutions: but in value: a hundred fold more happiness than any or all of these did or could afford. But let it be observed, none is entitled to this happiness, but he that will accept it with persecutions.” John Wesley

William MacDonald, the Believer’s Bible Commentary:

“10:28-30 Peter caught the drift of the Savior’s teaching. He realized that Jesus was saying, “Forsake all and follow Me.” Jesus confirmed this by promising present and eternal reward to those who forsake all for His sake and the gospel’s.
1. The present reward is 10,000 per cent return, not in money, but in:
a. houses—homes of other people where he is given accommodations as a servant of the Lord.
b. brothers and sisters and mothers and children—Christian friends whose fellowship enriches all of life.
c. lands—countries of the world which he has claimed for the King.
d. persecutions—these are a part of the present reward. It is a cause of rejoicing when one is found worthy to suffer for Jesus’ sake.
2. The future reward is eternal life. This does not mean that we earn eternal life through forsaking all. Eternal life is a gift. Here the thought is that those who forsake all are rewarded with a greater capacity for enjoying eternal life in heaven. All believers will have that life but not all will enjoy it to the same extent.”

FB Meyer writes:

“Mark 10:23-52
TRUE RICHES AND REAL GREATNESS
Wealth brings many temptations. It is not said that rich men cannot get through the gate, but they will have to stoop very low and be stripped of the love of wealth, though not necessarily of wealth itself. In Christ’s kingdom to give all is to get all. The surrendered life needs no pity, for what it loses on the material side is more than compensated by its enormous spiritual gains, Mar_10:30-31. Perhaps the request of the two brethren was dictated rather by the desire to be near the Master than by ambition; but in any case there is only one price to be paid. We must know the fellowship of His sufferings, if we are to share His glory, 2Ti_2:11, etc.”

“The strongest swords are forged in the hottest fires.” unknown
