Lawlessness Hates Rules

>> Recompile into LO | TrOb?

Other dates (~2008-2012?); 5/15/26

Those who are wicked hate rules, and lists of rules, and every dirty person hates those who make a distinction and separation between what is filthy from that which is clean and holy. If you are against lists of “dos and don’ts” then you are a pagan and have nothing to do with Biblical Christianity, and need to repent and Love the real Jesus and believe in the goodness of God which you have despised.

 

Self-Sacrificing for Life

To those who eagerly desire to know the terms of following Jesus, they will clasp onto every Truth with their life even when these very precious rays of light seem to cut their own hearts.  To those who would rather die for Jesus than to live for this world, they will take in this light and life of Truth. Though it kills them in exposing their sin, yet they will hold on to it in faith until it makes them alive and causes them to raise up, themselves now, even saturated in Truth.

 

Perfection?

5/19/19; 5/15/26

 

And what about perfection?

How can anyone be perfect so they don’t have to keep on sinning?

 

The personal substance and direct influence of pure Divinity is perfection.

 

All of that dirtiness and imperfection in your life shows that you do not have much of God’s clean, perfect, direct, and most personal presence in you, because the direct imprint of His finger prints have faded away and are not upon you.

Mat_1: -- Save His people from their Sins

 

 

1Jn_3:8 He who practices sin is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this reason the Son of God appeared, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

1Jn_3:8  ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐκ τοῦ διαβόλου ἐστίν, ὅτι ἀπ᾿ ἀρχῆς ὁ διάβολος ἁμαρτάνει. εἰς τοῦτο ἐφανερώθη ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἵνα λύσῃ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ διαβόλου.

 

See: CONTEXT

 

 

Rom_8:3 For what was impossible for the law to do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and concerning sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,

Rom_8:3  τὸ γὰρ ἀδύνατον τοῦ νόμου, ἐν ᾧ ἠσθένει διὰ τῆς σαρκός, ὁ Θεὸς τὸν ἑαυτοῦ υἱὸν πέμψας ἐν ὁμοιώματι σαρκὸς ἁμαρτίας καὶ περὶ ἁμαρτίας, κατέκρινε τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐν τῇ σαρκί,

Rom_8:4 so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

Rom_8:4  ἵνα τὸ δικαίωμα τοῦ νόμου πληρωθῇ ἐν ἡμῖν τοῖς μὴ κατὰ σάρκα περιπατοῦσιν, ἀλλὰ κατὰ πνεῦμα·

 

Notice the similar link between sin vs. law in both Rom_8:3 and 1Jn_3:4…

 

1Jn_3:4  Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.

1Jn_3:4  Πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν καὶ τὴν ἀνομίαν ποιεῖ, καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐστὶν ἡ ἀνομία.

Sin Definition Needed!

2/19/19; 5/4/19; 5/15/26

We Need to Define Sin Repentance and Perfection

 

Everyone thinks they like the passages in first John about confessing and having your sins forgiven.

 

but there is a wide gaping difference between Bible obedience, and churchianity’s fondness with “Scriptural poetry appreciation” today.

 

Biblical Differences in Forgiveness include...

·         a different definition of sin,

·         a different definition of repentance and forgiveness, and,

·         a different concern and preoccupation on when the sin has occurred or is occurring or might yet occur again in the future

·         the church world thinks all sin is there same sin, and is not concerned with when it has or is or may happen again in the future

·         the actual Bible and the actual scriptures and the actual words in 1st John very intentionally make an absolutely definite distinction in different types of sin - therefore you are going to hell if you confidently say or teach that all sin is the same

·         being a perfectionist -- everyone has a confused and different definition and ideal than the Bible

·         having a different definition of forgiveness - the biblical word is to send away

·         forgiveness = taking care of business

·         if you cursed yesterday and you cursed today and you expect to curse tomorrow, then you have never been biblically forgiven / cursing has not been sent away / you have not taken care of business

·         in the world they say correctly that failing to plan is planning to fail

·         if you expect (or plan) to sin tomorrow, your sins have not been sent away or forgiven in a biblical sense, your forgiveness without taking care of business is Satan worship and Antichrist heresy

·         it is one thing to walk around in the world and need to have your feet washed, but it is another thing to be wallowing in the mud
(and this is the biblical example that Peter uses...)

·         it is one thing to be a child and your parent cleans you off as you learn how to eat right, but it is another thing to be a pig who is not ever really cleaned by its very nature

 

Defining Sin Differently

>>Scrip:

all unrighteousness is sin / sin is the breaking of the law / everything that is not of faith / the luxury of complacency and thinking you're saved and not begging the righteous for forgiveness and fully incriminating yourself, and beating down the door to get discipled and get baptized by truth proclaimers / not literally obeying every single particle of the scriptures in their original languages -- this is the outrageous sin that people flatter away from their consciences and boast in their filthy and mindless Satan worship

 

>> See the sections on: you are desolate / you are not saved / depravity

 

 

 

Guilt, Conviction, & Taking Responsibility

Owning Up to Guilt Before Finding Forgiveness

Dealing w Guilt and Finding Forgiveness

9/26/13-9/27/13; 5/4/19; 5/15/26

 

How Much do you Own Up to Guilt?

 

>>Scrip:

Willing to Die

- always bearing in our body the dying of Jesus

- we are like the thief on cross... we deserve to die - Jn 1:u-10...2:1

- Rom_3:23

- God, be merciful to me a sinner (i.e. 'in my own right')

 

A  Line in the Sand

- Owning up does not at all include expecting and planning to sin more (hint: Jesus said to sin no more).

- can be helpful (in many cases) to confess all sins in the past tense (see: 'we have not kept your Word'/ driven out the nations/etc.)

- Heb 9-10 clean concious, cleared from dead works to serve... -- it is God's goal for us to be free, so we can dominate satan. It is the devil's goal to never stop making us hopelessly feel guilty (like Protestantism) in order that/ lest we at anytime take authority and become an unbearble thret to his kingdom!

- Act 10

 

 

Brand New Arrangement With Heaven

5/2/18; 5/4/18; 5/15/26

>> YouTube

 

Announcing… the New Deal with God!

 

you have heard that it has been said...

 

all of our righteousness is as filthy rags (Isa_64 )

 

but now I announce and declare to you a New Righteousness that is Divine and perfect for you to do, obey, and wear as clean clothes... the glory of eternal and divine clothing that you will wear in all cleanness and righteousness....

it will cover your nakedness so that you will not appear naked before a holy God...

 

this was prophesied in Revelation and in many Old and New Testament passages

 

Again…

you have heard that it has been said that "there is none righteous, no not one..." (Rom_3)

 

but I declare to you that these are the days of darkness and cursedness, and now finally at last, a new light shines where people will actually be righteous...

The Curse of Darkness of those days where "none are righteous" have passed away, and now all who hope and are eager for clean divinity will be Truly righteous, even in this life upon the Earth.

 

Religious people have said…

everybody sins and fall short of God's glory

 

and this is only True for them!

but I am announcing to a brand new deal where all of God's children will finally stop sinning!

 

this was prophesied in 1st John

 

Again…

you have heard all of your life that "no one is perfect"

 

but through that which is now new upon the Earth, those who hear and believe will get up from having fallen to walk in Perfection and in light

 

now that all of those days have passed where people said "we are all Sinners saved by grace", this Grace has now been judged and condemned as inferior, and found weak through the Flesh and incapable of energizing people to no longer be something, and a new favor has dawned and come that will make people no longer be "sinners saved by grace", but now, they will be saved from sin and Grace.

 

Since the inferior law of nasty grace did not work, now Truth has worked out a better salvation than ever previously imagined possible...

Questions

Root of Sin: What is the point of Genesis 3 teaching us about sin?

Wisdom: What lessons should we learn after decades of meditating on it?

LOB: Mat_5:17-20 – how does it relate to Gen_3?

 

READ Gen_3…

 

Multi-faceted Genesis

 

Genesis Foundations

Return to Gen_3: We will constantly return back to the foundation of Genesis 3 throughout our studies of the Bible.

All the Bible: Genesis presents undeniable foundations necessary for thoroughly acknowledging the rest of Scripture.

 

Beginnings: Genesis beginnings the whole Bible in so many ways…

 

Real Life: Gen 3 encapsulate an extremely brief and efficient snapshot of all of our life's problems.

 

All of the fundamentals of sin are there

Lust for food and

Defilement of gender

Independence

Experientialism Pride

Trivializing Sin -- not taking responsibility

Remember: Consequences prove severity sin, and they show True guilt of sin from God’s infinitely perceptive perspective

Denial, Hiding, Avoidance of Liability

Video Example: The Great Apostasy DEBUNKED! -- they are still denying sin (their Apostasy) to this day!

 

See: Heb_2:2-3 & Righteousness of God’s Judgements of Hell

 

The Point: notice that Genesis 3 teaches us many lessons

 

Relevance of Genesis 3

·         You’re Tempted: Don’t pretend that you are not tempted to eat the forbidden fruit.

·         Don’t Skip; You’re Still Tempted: If you pass over Genesis 3 as if you’ve already thought through everything enough, then your deceiving yourself -- because you’re still being tempted with sin!

·         Forbidden Sin is Close By: Every time you might do something outside of sacred and holy faith, you are trespassing into the forbidden realm of sin

·         Depravity Applies to YOU: Notice apostasy is a rebellious fall into the sin that personally applies to YOU, and condemns your personal desolation, (even though such desolation is denied by depravity teachers today in Protestantism).

 

Everything Not of Faith is Sin

>>Scrip:

 

Rom_14:23 NKJV But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.

Heb_11:6 NKJV But without faith it is impossible to please Him…

Jam_2:17 NKJV Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

 

1Pe 4:11 CAB  If anyone speaks, let him speak as the utterances of God. If anyone serves, let him serve as from strength, as God supplies, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.

1Pe 4:11  εἴ τις λαλεῖ, ὡς λόγια Θεοῦ· εἴ τις διακονεῖ, ὡς ἐξ ἰσχύος ἧς χορηγεῖ ὁ Θεός· ἵνα ἐν πᾶσι δοξάζηται ὁ Θεὸς διὰ ᾿Ιησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ᾧ ἐστιν ἡ δόξα καὶ τὸ κράτος εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.

1Pe 4:11  ει τις λαλει ως λογια θεου ει τις διακονει ως εξ ισχυος Bως TSAης χορηγει ο θεος ινα εν πασιν δοξαζηται ο θεος δια ιησου χριστου ω εστιν η δοξα και το κρατος εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων αμην

Literal?

 

The Bible says a lot about Letteral Obedience, but it was Mat_5:17-20 and related passages that finally got my attention to find the answers to sin all throughout the Bible…

 

Mat_5:17 CAB  "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill.

Mat_5:17  Μὴ νομίσητε ὅτι ἦλθον καταλῦσαι τὸν νόμον ἢ τοὺς προφήτας· οὐκ ἦλθον καταλῦσαι, ἀλλὰ πληρῶσαι.

Mat_5:18 For assuredly I say to you, until heaven and earth may pass away, one iota or one tittle shall by no means pass away from the law until all things are fulfilled.

Mat_5:18  ἀμὴν γὰρ λέγω ὑμῖν, ἕως ἂν παρέλθῃ ὁ οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ γῆ, ἰῶτα ἓν ἢ μία κεραία οὐ μὴ παρέλθῃ ἀπὸ τοῦ νόμου ἕως ἂν πάντα γένηται.

Mat_5:19 Whoever therefore shall break one of the least of these commandments, and shall teach men thus, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does them and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Mat_5:19  ὃς ἐὰν οὖν λύσῃ μίαν τῶν ἐντολῶν τούτων τῶν ἐλαχίστων καὶ διδάξῃ οὕτω τοὺς ἀνθρώπους, ἐλάχιστος κληθήσεται ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῶν οὐρανῶν· ὃς δ᾿ ἂν ποιήσῃ καὶ διδάξῃ, οὗτος μέγας κληθήσεται ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῶν οὐρανῶν.

Mat_5:20 For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

Mat_5:20  λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι ἐὰν μὴ περισσεύσῃ ἡ δικαιοσύνη ὑμῶν πλεῖον τῶν γραμματέων καὶ Φαρισαίων, οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθητε εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν.

Mat_5:20  λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι εαν μη περισσευση Aυμων η δικαιοσυνη TSBυμων πλειον των γραμματεων και φαρισαιων ου μη εισελθητε εις την βασιλειαν των ουρανων

GENESIS 3

Literal Genesis? Why not literal Bible?

 

We know how important it is to have a literal creation, flood, and genealogy in Christianity Today, but we lose our brain in figurative fairyland when we keep reading the rest of the Bible, forgetting that Genesis 3 is the foundation for a consistent reading of the entire Bible.

 

 

Lovelessness of Eating Forbidden Fruit << PEDNING

7/26/26

 

Gnostics Love Eating Forbidden Fruit

Not taking the Bible literally and seriously pretends that sinning is more loving and good than obedience.

 

Summary:

“The name, Naasenes (Naas = snake in Hebrew) or Ophites (ophis = snake in Greek), was given to certain gnostic heretics; clearly they were snake-worshippers, the snake symbolising the knowledge or wisdom which brought salvation. In Genesis the snake tempts Adam and Eve with the promise of knowledge, and some rediscovered gnostic texts depict the serpent as the ‘goody’ in the story, offering the knowledge needed to escape from the clutches of the ‘baddy’ Creator-God.  From the usual point of view they read Genesis upside-down; but what was there to stop them? The serpent was a symbol of wisdom.”

Root error:

Being Comfortable with contradiction!

 

Saying Jesus was like the serpent in the wilderness, therefore snakes are good

 

Profaning

Forgetting:

2Co_5:17

 

Transitions to an Answer

·         Be Irked at Perversion: Hopefully you naturally cringe at the profaning thought of morally inverting the first sin into a positive ideal to admire and praise

·         Be Irked at Our Temptations: But we still get tempted to think we’re doing good when we’re sinning

·         What’s So Bad?: So why is eating the fruit wrong?

·         Do it Apply Today?: Are we really tempted with eating it today?

 

Sin = Love?

·         Fake Sinful Love: My brother talked well of a pastor who sympathized with Adam for ‘deeply loving eve and wanting to be with her’

·         Love Saves: Forgetting that real Love SAVES your spouse; it never tolerates sinning with them, therefore…

·         Idolatry of Lust: Root sin error includes idolatry of human relationships

 

Sin = Hate

·         Sin Kills: You’ve murdered the entire human race!

·         Secular-Liberals Hate: “Throwing the Bible across the room” makes you reckless and destructive to lie, and heartlessly harm and destroy other people

 

Love = Obedience

Love God and love people is simple?

Just Deuteronomy 6?

No!

Deuteronomy 5 & 6

 

>>Scrip:

Love God Keep Commandments

 

Joh_14:15 NKJV If you love Me, keep My commandments.

Joh_14:21 NKJV He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me…

Joh_15:10 NKJV If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love…

1Jn_5:2 NKJV By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments.

1Jn_5:3 NKJV For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.

2Jn_1:6 NKJV This is love, that we walk according to His commandments…

Deu_11:1 NKJV Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep His charge, His statutes, His judgments, and His commandments always.

Rom_12:9 a CAB  Let love be without hypocrisy… Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

Death -- STOP Trivializing Sin’s Wages!

 

>>Scrip:

The day you eat, in dying you will die

The wages of sin are death

 

Gen_2:16 NKJV And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;

Gen_2:17 NKJV but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.

Gen_3:19 NKJV …For dust you are, And to dust you shall return.

 

Sin Makes Death -- When Fully Grown

Compare: John & James

 

1Co_15:56 NKJV The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.

 

Rom_7:13 NKJV Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin… was producing death in me…

 

Rom_5:12 NKJV Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin…

 

Eze_18:4 NKJV …The soul who sins shall die.

Eze_18:20 NKJV The soul who sins shall die…

 

 

1Jn 5:16 CAB  If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and He shall give him life for those who do not sin unto death. There is a sin leading to death. I do not say that he should ask about that.

1Jn 5:16  ᾿Εάν τις ἴδῃ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἁμαρτάνοντα ἁμαρτίαν μὴ πρὸς θάνατον, αἰτήσει, καὶ δώσει αὐτῷ ζωήν, τοῖς ἁμαρτάνουσι μὴ πρὸς θάνατον. ἔστιν ἁμαρτία πρὸς θάνατον· οὐ περὶ ἐκείνης λέγω ἵνα ἐρωτήσῃ.

1Jn 5:16  εαν τις ιδη τον αδελφον αυτου αμαρτανοντα αμαρτιαν μη προς θανατον αιτησει και δωσει αυτω ζωην τοις αμαρτανουσιν μη προς θανατον εστιν αμαρτια προς θανατον ου περι εκεινης λεγω ινα ερωτηση

1Jn 5:17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death [ἔστιν ἁμαρτία οὐ πρὸς θάνατον].

1Jn 5:17  πᾶσα ἀδικία ἁμαρτία ἐστίν· καὶ ἔστιν ἁμαρτία οὐ πρὸς θάνατον.

√ GNT-V

 

Jas 1:14  But each one is tempted by his own lusts, being drawn away and being seduced by them.

Jas 1:14  ἕκαστος δὲ πειράζεται ὑπὸ τῆς ἰδίας ἐπιθυμίας ἐξελκόμενος καὶ δελεαζόμενος·

Jas 1:14  εκαστος δε πειραζεται υπο της ιδιας επιθυμιας εξελκομενος και δελεαζομενος

Jas 1:15 Then lust, when it conceives, gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

Jas 1:15  εἶτα ἡ ἐπιθυμία συλλαβοῦσα τίκτει ἁμαρτίαν, ἡ δὲ ἁμαρτία ἀποτελεσθεῖσα ἀποκύει θάνατον.

√ GNT-V

Jam_1:14 NKJV But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.

Jam_1:15 NKJV Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

 

 

 

Rom 6:23 CAB  For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Rom 6:23  τὰ γὰρ ὀψώνια τῆς ἁμαρτίας θάνατος, τὸ δὲ χάρισμα τοῦ Θεοῦ ζωὴ αἰώνιος ἐν Χριστῷ ᾿Ιησοῦ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡμῶν.

√ GNT-V

Rom_6:23 NKJV For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

 

This is an OR Choice, because of the paralleling preceding authoritative governing context…

 

Rom 6:16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves to whom you obey, whether of sin resulting in death [μαρτίας εἰς θάνατον], or of obedience resulting in righteousness [ὑπακοῆς εἰς δικαιοσύνην]?

Rom 6:16  οὐκ οἴδατε ὅτι ᾧ παριστάνετε ἑαυτοὺς δούλους εἰς ὑπακοήν, δοῦλοί ἐστε ᾧ ὑπακούετε, ἤτοι ἁμαρτίας εἰς θάνατον ἢ ὑπακοῆς εἰς δικαιοσύνην;

√ GNT-V

 

The wages of sin are still death (Rom 6:23) no matter what you do to pretend that ant-christ has covered your sinning…

 

The Point: Sin always brings death -- when it is complete

 

Gen_4:7 NKJV If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.

Isa_59:2 NKJV But your iniquities have separated you from your God…

Heb_3:12 NKJV Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God.

 

 

 

 

 

The Beginning Of Sin

 

Sin Described, Defined, & Named

Genesis 3 Describes sin before the Bible says the word “sin”.

Genesis 3 helps define the very nature of sin before

 

Genesis 3 seems to be the beginning of sin -- at least from our human perspective.

Note: whenever the Bible is in reverse chronology, it is reversed because that’s the way we experience these events.

So…

Some snake came along and tripped us all up and now we’re sinning.

But sin started before that…

 

The Fall of Lucifer

Until Sin Was Found In You

Isa_14: Eze_28:

 

>>Scrip:

 

Eze_28:15 NKJV You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, Till iniquity was found in you.

Eze_28:17 NKJV Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty…

Isa_14:12 NKJV How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!…

Isa_14:13 NKJV For you have said in your heart: “I will ascend into heaven…”

Isa_14:14 NKJV I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.

 

 

 

Sins of Genesis 3

7/3/26; 7/26/26

 

 

Summary of Sins in Genesis 3

Laziness: Not dominating animals or nature

Failing Spiritual Warfare: listening to the devil instead of quoting God's Words back to him

Skepticism: Questioning God's Word

Opinion-ing: Interpreting God's Word

Lying: Denying the wages of sin -- Trivializing sin; Downplaying what might happen if you might sin

Feeling Immortal: Saying you won't die if you sin -- the foolishness of youth

Disobedience: Rebelling against authority

Anarchy: Reversing hierarchy

Interpreting God, His Words, and His motives instead of obeying Him

Experientialism: Preferring one's own experience of something instead of taking warning from hearing

Worldliness: Prioritizing human relationships over obeying God

Perversion: Sexual defilement

Impenitence: Not quickly confessing sin, voluntarily

Pragmatism: believing that doing things your way achieves more good -- vs. Lord’s Prayer: your will be done!

Religion: talking about “God” while connecting to the devil

Self-Deception: Trusting & following your own heart

Pride: wanting to exalt yourself as God even if we sin to get there

 

We might repeat Gen_3 Sins by…

Determinism: Failing to definitely choose between good & bad -- Denying that you are liable for your choice

Repeating History: Continuing to eat what God has forbidden

 

 

See: Sin is Breaking the Law

1Jn_3:4 NKJV Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.

Rom_7:7 NKJV …I would not have known sin except through the law…

Rom_3:20 NKJV …for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Jam_2:9 NKJV But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

 

 

PUR

 

Snake Defilement

Both trees were good

The sin of the snake flowed through the breaking of God's rules with the tree, bringing the contamination and defilement of sin through the otherwise good tree which God made

 

Multiple Partners

Monogamy condemned multiple partners and was somehow troubled by the snake

 

Naked

More NAKED than all other animals???

 

Prostitution

2CO11

PROSTITUTION was a concern from the beginning

 

DAR

Therefore the exception clause applies in some very strange ways...

 

Independent Apostasy

Isolation of Apostasy

6/28/26

 

From God and obeyers

 

First & Final Apostasies

6/28/26

Snake War (Gen_3: Rev_12:

Sexual Defilement (2Co_11: Rev_3: Rev_17 – 18, etc.)

 

 

 

Choice

Sin vs. obedience has always been about a choice

6/27/26-6/28/26

 

Don't let Calvinism, or attitudes of inability / incapability ever excuse you from responsibility to choose between right and wrong, obeying the devil and sin or obeying God's commandments

 

 

Salvation from the Sins of Genesis 3

7/26/26 (√ Presented)

 

Sins

·         Doubting Disobedience: The foundation of all sin is not believing God enough to take His commands literally -- seriously enough to actually obey.

·         Evil & Death -- from Figurative: All of the pain, all of the suffering, all of the death = being liberal, figurative, interpretive, non-lordship with God's saving rules/words

·         Self-Idolatry: Self-lording cross examine what God says, instead of obeying it

 

Salvation

·         Seed: Genesis 3:15 called the answer “the seed” of the woman

·         Prophet: Moses called him a prophet like himself

·         Real Jesus: You need to find the real Jesus who saves us from the sin in Genesis 3

Depravity vs Dessolation?

9/7/25; 5/16/26

 

Rev_3:16 – desolate!

 

Mar_10:18/Luk_18:19 – And Jesus said to him, Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.

Tit_1:15-16 – to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled.

Ecc_9:3 – Also, the hearts of the children of man are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

Pro_10:20 – the heart of the wicked is of little worth.

Pro_28:26 – Whoever trusts in his own [heart] is a fool

 

Tit_1:15-16 – to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled.

 

Rom_7:18 – For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh.

 

 

ABC Prayer is Vanity

the sinner's prayer doesn't save from sin

"Admit that you're a sinner" is not good enough!

 

Remember the key word in Genesis 6???

Lack of Begging (Biblical humility) Scientifically proves that something is missing from Depravity teachings.

Our Depravity is NOT Deep enough!

 

Our Flesh HATES God!

Repentance or Faith First?

9/7/25

 

Repentance Before Faith?

2Ti_2:25-26 – God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the tRth_, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.

 

We can look at ways which repentance precedes faith and ways which it overlaps with faith

 

The circumstances and beginning factors of repentance can precede faith

Inability?

 

Joh_6:44 LSV  no one is able to come to Me if the Father who sent Me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;

Joh_6:44  οὐδεὶς δύναται ἐλθεῖν πρός με, ἐὰν μὴ ὁ πατὴρ ὁ πέμψας με ἑλκύσῃ αὐτόν, καὶ ἐγὼ ἀναστήσω αὐτὸν τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ.

2 Minds

TwoMinds

 

(A) Brain: Enlightened by God’s Law

Rom_7:21 CAB  Therefore I find this law, that when I wish [θέλοντι] to do the right thing, that evil is present with me.

Rom_7:21  εὑρίσκω ἄρα τὸν νόμον, τῷ θέλοντι ἐμοὶ ποιεῖν τὸ καλὸν, ὅτι ἐμοὶ τὸ κακὸν παράκειται·

Rom_7:22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man.

Rom_7:22  συνήδομαι γὰρ τῷ νόμῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ κατὰ τὸν ἔσω ἄνθρωπον,

Rom_7:23 But I see a different law in my members, waging war with the law of my mind [τοῦ νοός μου], and capturing me by the law of sin which is in my members.

Rom_7:23  βλέπω δὲ ἕτερον νόμον ἐν τοῖς μέλεσί μου ἀντιστρατευόμενον τῷ νόμῳ τοῦ νοός μου καὶ αἰχμαλωτίζοντά με ἐν τῷ νόμῳ τῆς ἁμαρτίας τῷ ὄντι ἐν τοῖς μέλεσί μου.

Rom_7:23  βλεπω δε ετερον νομον εν τοις μελεσιν μου αντιστρατευομενον τω νομω του νοος μου και αιχμαλωτιζοντα με BAεν τω νομω της αμαρτιας τω οντι εν τοις μελεσιν μου

Rom_7:24 O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from this body of death?

Rom_7:24  Ταλαίπωρος ἐγὼ ἄνθρωπος· τίς με ῥύσεται ἐκ τοῦ σώματος τοῦ θανάτου τούτου;

Rom_7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself with the mind serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

Rom_7:25  εὐχαριστῶ τῷ Θεῷ διὰ ᾿Ιησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν. ἄρα οὖν αὐτὸς ἐγὼ τῷ μὲν νοῒ δουλεύω νόμῳ Θεοῦ, τῇ δὲ σαρκὶ νόμῳ ἁμαρτίας.

Rom_7:25  Aχαρις Aδε TSBευχαριστω τω θεω δια ιησου χριστου του κυριου ημων αρα ουν αυτος εγω τω μεν νοι δουλευω νομω θεου τη δε σαρκι νομω αμαρτιας

√ GNT-V

 

(B) Deeper Mind: Only Changed by God’s Spirit

Rom_8:4 so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

Rom_8:4  ἵνα τὸ δικαίωμα τοῦ νόμου πληρωθῇ ἐν ἡμῖν τοῖς μὴ κατὰ σάρκα περιπατοῦσιν, ἀλλὰ κατὰ πνεῦμα·

Rom_8:5 For those who are fleshly set their minds [φρονοῦσιν] on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

Rom_8:5  οἱ γὰρ κατὰ σάρκα ὄντες τὰ τῆς σαρκὸς φρονοῦσιν, οἱ δὲ κατὰ πνεῦμα τὰ τοῦ πνεύματος.

Rom_8:6 For the mind [φρόνημα] of the flesh is death, but the mind [φρόνημα] of the Spirit is life and peace.

Rom_8:6  τὸ γὰρ φρόνημα τῆς σαρκὸς θάνατος, τὸ δὲ φρόνημα τοῦ πνεύματος ζωὴ καὶ εἰρήνη·

Rom_8:7 Therefore the mind [φρόνημα] of the flesh is enmity against God; for it does not submit to the law of God, nor indeed can it.

Rom_8:7  διότι τὸ φρόνημα τῆς σαρκὸς ἔχθρα εἰς Θεόν· τῷ γὰρ νόμῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐχ ὑποτάσσεται· οὐδὲ γὰρ δύναται·

Rom_8:8 And those that are in the flesh cannot please God.

Rom_8:8  οἱ δὲ ἐν σαρκὶ ὄντες Θεῷ ἀρέσαι οὐ δύνανται.

√ GNT-V

…

Rom_8:12 Therefore, brothers, we are debtors--not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

Rom_8:12  ῎Αρα οὖν, ἀδελφοί, ὀφειλέται ἐσμέν οὐ τῇ σαρκὶ τοῦ κατὰ σάρκα ζῆν·

Rom_8:12  αρα ουν αδελφοι οφειλεται εσμεν ου τη σαρκι του κατα σαρκα ζην

Rom_8:13 For if you live according to the flesh you shall die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the practices of the body, you will live.

Rom_8:13  εἰ γὰρ κατὰ σάρκα ζῆτε, μέλλετε ἀποθνῄσκειν· εἰ δὲ πνεύματι τὰς πράξεις τοῦ σώματος θανατοῦτε, ζήσεσθε.

Rom_8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

Rom_8:14  ὅσοι γὰρ Πνεύματι Θεοῦ ἄγονται, οὗτοι εἰσιν υἱοὶ Θεοῦ.

Rom_8:14  οσοι γαρ πνευματι θεου αγονται ουτοι TSBεισιν υιοι θεου Aεισιν

 

 

Desolation

5/13/25; 10/21/25

 

Desolation Recognition = Solution

Only after you courageously embrace a full realization of your desolation can you sufficiently and successfully apprehend forgiveness.

 

Once you realize how deep you are in sin (how much you do and how bad it is) then you can appreciate and believe the Good message that you don't have to sin anymore!

 

Trivializing Sin = Problem

Virtually everyone born of flesh trivializes their sin.

 

 

Higher Standard Needed

5/13/25

 

Don’t Just Think: I don’t do much of what seems wrong

 

Think: am I…

·         Fulfilling all righteousness

·         Being inspired & NOT fleshly

·         Perfectly obeying ALL

 

Sin = breaking the law

 

>>Scrip:

1Jo_3:4 NKJV Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.

 

Jam_2:9 NKJV but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

 

Jam_4:17 NKJV Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

Rom_4:15 NKJV because the law brings about wrath; for where there is no law there is no transgression.

Rom_5:13 NKJV (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.)

Rom_7:7 NKJV What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”

Question

Why is self-Flattery and Self-Commendation so wrong?

 

Answer

You’re Flesh ≠ Good!

 

Embrace Desolation; Defeat Flattery; Love the Bible

Fully and enthusiastically embracing the desolation of our own flesh helps us have the integrity to defeat self-flattery and empowers us to consistently and potently love and be changed by the Bible, whether it speaks positively to the righteous or negatively to the sin which we've identified in our flesh.

 

Identifying to Re-identify

11/9/25

Identifying Our Sinfulness is not for Our Identity

 

Identifying the sinfulness of our flesh...

·         Helps us combat and overcome the distortions and deceptions of (Bible disobedient) flattery

·         Is not an acceptance of how sinful we are.

·         Does not make us more sinful, but rather is the first step to being saved from sin.

·         Not for the purpose of tolerating and learning to accept and own that identification

 

When we successfully point out what is bad the contrast helps sharpen our vision to see and identify what is the legitimate Target of good

 

Successfully Identifying the sinfulness of our flesh does not load us down with unresolvable guilt or hopelessly chain us to the identity of sinfulness, but rather it's springboards us into the hope of the Truth that sets us free from sin.

Identifying our flesh as sinful doesn't embrace and acceptance of being sinful, but rather by identifying what is sinful we are mighty to successfully crucify the body of sin so that we don't have to keep sinning.

 

Flesh = Enemy

Our flesh is enmity against God *

·         >>>>>>> Our flesh, or more particularly, "the body of sin" (Rom_6:6), is always identified as God's enemy in the Bible.

·         >>>>>>> The flesh is not excited about talking about God's doomed enemies, because that’s precisely what it is! 10/17/25

·         >>>>>>> When you are non-fleshly you are encouraged by God’s judgments that bring salvation to the broken!

·         We need to soberly consider how our flesh identifies with God's enemies.

·         Integrity toward God's Truth demands that we scrutinize "the enemy within" so that our hope of salvation is not sabotaged.

·         We need to interrogate and crucify our fleshly selves so that we can come out set free from God's enemy camp, and we might stand a chance of possibly being candidates for being the winners of the Good Message.

·         If we are completely humble and repentant, then we might be the targets of triumph in the Good Message - and in fact this is precisely what we find when we consider the Good Message in Isaiah.

 

>>>>>>> Summary

>>Scrip: ES

* Fleshly Enmity

Jam_4:4 NKJV Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

1Jo_2:16 NKJV For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

Eph_2:3 NKJV among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

Gal_5:16 NKJV I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

Gal_5:17 NKJV For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.

Gal_5:24 NKJV And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Rom_6:6 NKJV Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.

Rom_7:18 NKJV For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.

Rom_8:5 NKJV For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

Rom_8:6 NKJV For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Rom_8:7 NKJV Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

Rom_8:8 NKJV So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

Rom_13:14 NKJV But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

 

Collaborative Summary

Jam_4:4 = “friendship with the world” = “enmity with God” = makes himself “enemy of God” = adulterous betrayal of divine covenant

1Jo_2:16 = “lust of the flesh” + “lust of the eyes” + “pride of life” = “not of the Father” = worldly corruption

Eph_2:3 = “lusts of our flesh” = “desires of the flesh and of the mind” = “by nature children of wrath” = condemned and corrupted nature

Gal_5:16 = “walk in the Spirit” ≠ “fulfill the lust of the flesh” = Spirit opposes flesh

Gal_5:17 = “flesh lusts against the Spirit” = “contrary” = inner war = frustration and bondage

Gal_5:24 = “crucified the flesh” = death of “passions and desires” = only Christ’s belong to this victory

Rom_8:5 = “mind set on the flesh” = live “according to the flesh” = contrasted with those “of the Spirit”

Rom_8:6 = “carnally minded is death” = “spiritually minded is life and peace” = death versus life contrast

Rom_8:7 = “carnal mind” = “enmity against God” = rebellious = “not subject to the law of God” = cannot obey

Rom_8:8 = “in the flesh” = “cannot please God” = total inability

Rom_13:14 = “put on the Lord Jesus Christ” ≠ “make provision for the flesh” = starve sinful desire

Col_2:12 having been buried together with Him in baptism, in which also you were raised together through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.

Col_2:12  συνταφέντες αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ βαπτίσματι, ἐν ᾧ καὶ συνηγέρθητε διὰ τῆς πίστεως τῆς ἐνεργείας τοῦ Θεοῦ τοῦ ἐγείραντος αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν.

Col_2:11 NKJV In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ.

 

Enemy Summary

“the [(un)circumcised] body TSBof the TSBsins of the flesh” = (Col_2:11) = "the body of the sin" = slave-serving sin = “the old man of ours” (Rom_6:6) = a “wretched man I am” (Rom_7:24)

Living according to flesh = mind set on the flesh (Rom_8:5) = Anti-spiritual fleshly lusts and passions, of eyes, pride of life, desires of the mind (1Jo_2:16; Eph_2:3; Gal_5:16-17, Gal_5:24; Rom_13:14 [no provision]) = fleshly inability to please God (Rom_8:8) = The No-Good Flesh (Rom_7:18) = “alienated…enemies…in those wicked works” (Col_1:21) = rebellious, lawless, fleshly minded death = enemy of God (Rom_8:6-7) = Worldly “enemy of God” (Rom_5:10; Rom_11:28; Rom_8:6-7; Jam_4:4) = “children of wrath” (Eph_2:3)

The Point: the anti-spiritual, lawless, old body of no-good sinful flesh wretchedly slave-serves lustful, worldly, prideful sins in evil works as God’s alienated displeasing enemy of hot-anger-wrath.

“We have to adjust our perspective of people. We have to realize people are good and they mean to do good.”

1Co_2:13  ἃ καὶ λαλοῦμεν οὐκ ἐν διδακτοῖς ἀνθρωπίνης σοφίας λόγοις, ἀλλ᾿ ἐν διδακτοῖς Πνεύματος ῾Αγίου, πνευματικοῖς πνευματικὰ συγκρίνοντες.

1Co_2:14  But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

1Co_2:14  ψυχικὸς δὲ ἄνθρωπος οὐ δέχεται τὰ τοῦ Πνεύματος τοῦ Θεοῦ· μωρία γὰρ αὐτῷ ἐστι, καὶ οὐ δύναται γνῶναι, ὅτι πνευματικῶς ἀνακρίνεται.

Flesh Cannot Submit to God's Law Or Please God

Rom_8:7 CAB  Therefore the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it does not submit to the law of God, nor indeed can it.

More Depraved than You Think

2/5/19

You think you might know about the doctrine of depravity, but the absolute desolation of the human race is far worse than you think it is, and it includes virtually all of the spiritual things that you think are good.

 

5/4/19

Confronting the absolute wickedness of most people who justify themselves and boast and think well of their evil and totally perverted and wicked sinful filthiness…

The Real Truth behind “depravity” -- and why it is worse than you think it is!

you are more guilty than you think

11/11/18; 12/24/18

 

It is very provoking when studying health how much stress and various worries and hatred and competitions kills away your health….

 

>> story: family blasting christmass music, then doing horrible evil, persecuting and shaming and guess-judging the righteous and hurting their family…

 

There are many people who so happily sing christmas caroles and happily boast in their satanic church services and then go home and argue their family into the grave and then go on to have the audacity to justify themselves…….!!!

 

It is one thing to accidentally do unhealthy things, but to murder people because of your vile evil and active sinning against their life and spewing out defilement in attacking them… that’s some serious guilt…

 

These will truly be charged as murderers on judgment day!

 

Hated and despised forever for their guilty filthy arguments and threats and vile words and fleshly judgments and evil ways of living, or rather, killing other human lives with their reckless and perverted sinful lives…

 

 

…

11/11/18

 

you really are more treacherous and evil and defiled and worthless and sinful and guilty and bloodthirsty than you are willing to even think or admit.

 

the question here is not what you are thinking, but the question is really what are your motives?

most people are so silly that they don't even realize what the difference between their intentions and their motives are and they naively and mindlessly and ignorantly assume that they have anything to do with each other and that they are essentially the same!

 

but unfortunately we can't even just ask the seemingly simple question this way because we have to reach deeper because of your numbness and dullness and imperceptive blindness and seared conscience that is so hardened and closed and ignorant and blind that you can't even tell anything that's passing right under your nose in your own heart.

so instead of asking what are your motives, we probably need to ask what is motivating you?

 

you think that you are not that bad of a person and you think that you're not that guilty and you don't think that you want bad to happen to anyone...

 

but what you don't realize is that while you intend to do good but your motives are evil. But since you don't understand or perceive even the ABCs of the most basic realities of what is going on right in front of you, we have to put this in other terms that are less used and abused by your indulgent and Mindless habits.

 you are being motivated by evil.

 

and now let me open the eyes of any who are poor and hungry and willing to change...

 

if you actually think a little bit and consider the difference between your motives and your intentions then you can have your eyes open big time.

 

your intentions are what are in your brain when you think that you want to do something and set a goal to do it based on the knowledge and information that you have.

 

your intentions are the goals which you choose. these are often active in your brain.

 

your motives, or even rather, what is motivating you, is that which actually gives you energy to do what you are doing...

 

your motives shape Define and direct the outcome of your intentions.

 

sometimes your motives result in an intention in you, but other times your motives, which actually drive you in the deepest secrets of your heart, can actually conflict and compete with the intentions you formulate and choose in your brain.

 

you may be motivated by money and therefore you may intend to make money and set goals to become successful. In this case your motives more directly lead to your intentions. (this of course naturally gives rise to the real possibility, and even likelihood, of confusing your motives with your intentions)

 

other times you may intend to lose weight but then you may still find yourself overeating because you are motivated by the lust for food -- in this case your motives, lust, are what actually drive you and give you energy, and they can not only shape the outcome of your intentions, but they can downright distort and redirect and even contradict them!

 

 

>> Scrip:

> you don't do what you want to do because you are in The Flesh and under the law

>> the bible says this proves you are going to hell

>> Rom_7: > Gal_6: (FULL context!)

 

so what we see is that intentions can be potentially positive when you intend to do a good thing, but it is the deep down motives which give you energy to do things and drive and direct the course of your life, and these are the much more important and much more revealing than simply being so shallow as to settle with only considering your intentions.

 

so you may indeed imagine yourself to be a great person and you may flatter yourself in your heart with all kinds of deceptions and delusions and luxurious indulgences until you are drunk silly with an inaccurate and foolish misperceptions of your own soul, diluting and hiding the filthy dirtiness of your soul...

 

while you yourself in your brain may tell yourself that you intend to do good to humanity yet if you are like most people, you are actually motivated by the evil one.

 

>> Scrip:

the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one

 

Ephesians energizing

the devil had already put it in the heart of Judas Iscariot

 

ironically enough you have plenty of church people who say they identify with Romans chapter 7 in doing what they don't want to do, but then they turn around and declare their motors clean as though they are not being led by the evil one to do what they don't want to do!

oh mindless and contradicting and illogical inconsistent and dishonest Church hypocrite.....

 

 

yes, indeed, your brain may agree with your mouth and you may tell yourself that you very much intended to do good to humanity...

but it is not actually your intentions that matter here because your intentions are not the ultimate guide and energy and force which directs and shapes the outcome of your actions...

so while your brain intends to do good to humanity, yet your heart is motivated by the devil who is a murderer...

and the devil doesn't come sneak up into your heart and announced that he intends to kill people, but he really does apply his mind to Prudence and strategy in seeking to kill people as skillfully as he possibly can, and it is his conscious intentional motives to kill people which is actually what is motivating you

 

while you don't intend to kill people with your brain, yet you are really motivated by the energizing of Satan which is the motivation to kill people.

you intend to do good to people but you are motivated to kill them even though you won't admit this and you won't even pause and think and regard knowledge long enough to consider that you are motivated to kill people... but it doesn't matter what your shallow pea brain thanks, you are indeed a murderer at heart...

 

>> Scrip:

the devil was a murderer from the beginning

false prophets lie in wait to deceive and turn you away from the truth as a predator seeking to kill

The Flesh Is More Evil Than You Think It Is

3/31/24 (presented)

 

Wife Conference Notes

3/31/24

 

We got to first believe that people are really, really, really evil. Even Moses had to come to terms with this (ex he thought they would know that God sent him to help his brothers...by the time Moses was cooperating with God to write the Bible he wholeheartedly believed and declared that "you are a stiff necked people")

Modern evangelistic efforts are pathetic because they don't believe that the flesh is that evil.

The foundation of humanity is that they are evil. Witnessing can be counterintuitive because we are often affected & swayed by the sincerity of people.

You need to believe that people are atrociously evil, AND when you might talk to people they need to believe that they really are that messed up and in need.

God can be nice to you through evil people by making them cooperate with the mechanics that He built into them, but that is not THEM being nice to you. The best they can do on their own is flatter you. Their kindnesses towards you is mechanical and circumstantial. You can become more and more soured of a human by rebelling against this. They can only become more and more in the negatives as a human. They cannot become exceptionally virtuous unless/until they are standing against injustice by faith.

 

Do you really believe that the flesh is as evil as the Bible points out?

Examples:

 

Rom_3:9-18

All flesh, both Jew and Greek, are under sin

There is not one righteous

No one puts two and two together

No flesh seeks after God

All have inclined out and gone out of the way

They all have become useless (unprofitable as a spiritual person)

There is no one doing good, NO NOT ONE

Their throat is an open grave

With their tongues they use deceit

Poison is under their lips

Mouths are full of cursing and bitterness

Feet are swift to shed blood

Destruction and misery in their way

They have not known the way of peace

There is no fear of God before their eyes

 

Rom_7:18 "In my flesh NOTHING good dwells"

 

Eph 2

Strangers to the Covenant

Having no (real) hope

Without God

Practical atheists in the world

 

Col 2

Their self willed pseudo worship has no power to humble themselves or stop the indulgence of the flesh. They are still indulgent!

 

John 3 sinning children of the devil

 

You boast that God forgave you of your sins but...

2 Corin 11 says you put up with other jesuses

And Joshua 24 says, 'You can't serve God because he is holy and jealous, and you serve other gods, thus he will not forgive your sins'

 

Rich, strong, and sufficient people are most vulnerable to these woes

...

You really have to get this reality down in your heart so that you can repent of the flesh, and so that you can testify against people to repent of the flesh

 

 

---------------

 

10/28/18; 5/4/19

 

Genesis 6

 

people in the business world would not normally relate to why something condemned in the Bible such as loving money or kissing toward the glory of the Sun would in any way be related to something that is so totally rotten and wicked...

 

job says that he would be willing to let his arm fall off or his life Perish away in judgment if he did any such thing as not give to the poor or if he was secretly kissing toward the Sun...

 

you got to admit that at first glance this is not something that humans immediately recognized as totally atrocious and irreverent in deeply Twisted in wickedness

 

but in theory church people have been trained by Sunday school to know that this is supposed to be bad so therefore since they are not tempted by it they proudly declare themselves to be free of it without any evidence or testing or proof

 

but in the same way that kissing the sun is not at first recognized as being Totally Wicked and yet is harshly condemned by the Bible, so also all luxury and all Indulgence and all subtle pride and all raining Kings without truth Proclaimers is harshly condemned and threatened with eternal torture... and hatred from God...

 

the truth is just like secular people can't relate many things that are abominable to the Bible so also all church people cannot relate to the actual strict stringent standards of the Bible that condemn religious people and that attack subtle things that people have no clue are actually completely Wicked and wrong...

 

what is highly esteemed among men ( of secular and virtually all religious people) is abomination before God

 

religious people read the Bible totally different than Bible obeyers read it.

 

Bible obeyers read the Bible carefully listening to every word because they know that their soul is on the line while religious people just let things go in one ear and out the other.

 

Dense and Seared Conscience

11/2/17

 

most people's conscience is so dense and insensitive and seared because their standard is so low.

 

even the most horrifying and gross fleshliness and prideful Self Indulgence and self-centered confidence is considered a healthy element as though God accepts their perverted Humanity

Comp. Blind & You Don’t Know Anything

 

-- Under Construction --

 

GPT: The Bible shows that spiritual sight is a moral perception, not just intellectual. When someone admits, “I am a sinner,” the veil lifts (2Co_3:16). The light of Christ exposes sin not to shame, but to heal (Joh_3:21; Eph_5:13). Those who claim to “see” (Joh_9:41) remain blind because pride blocks repentance. Yet those who confess their sinfulness like Isaiah (Isa_6:5), Peter (Luk_5:8), and Paul (Act_9:17-18) come into a seeing faith.

Joh_9:39-41 NKJV And Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind.” Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, “Are we blind also?” Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.”

 

Rev_3:17-18 NKJV “Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed… and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.”

 

Satan Blinds

2Co_4:4-6 NKJV …whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ… should shine on them. For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Joe_2:12 WEB  "Yet even now," says Yahweh, "turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning."

Joe_2:12 CAB  Now therefore, says the Lord your God, turn to Me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with lamentation:

Joe_2:12  καὶ νῦν λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν Ἐπιστράφητε πρός με ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ ἐν νηστείᾳ καὶ ἐν κλαυθμῷ καὶ ἐν κοπετῷ·

Joe_2:13 Tear your heart, and not your garments, and turn to Yahweh, your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.

Joe_2:13 and tear your hearts, and not your garments, and turn to the Lord your God: for He is merciful and compassionate, long suffering, and plenteous in mercy, and relenting of evil.

Joe_2:13  καὶ διαρρήξατε τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ μὴ τὰ ἱμάτια ὑμῶν καὶ ἐπιστράφητε πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεὸν ὑμῶν, ὅτι ἐλεήμων καὶ οἰκτίρμων ἐστίν, μακρόθυμος καὶ πολυέλεος καὶ μετανοῶν ἐπὶ ταῖς κακίαις.

Joe_2:14 Who knows? He may turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal offering and a drink offering to Yahweh, your God.

Joe_2:14 Who knows if He will return, and repent, and leave a blessing behind Him, even a grain offering and a drink offering to the Lord your God?

Worse, Boasting Better

Worse Bragging Better

Thinking You're Better, when Being Worse

Worse Boasting Better

Worse, & Boasting Better

Below Average Boasting

Worst Boasting Better

Worse, & Yet Boasting to Better

·         Adventism -- they keep more Bible rules (like Sabbath)??

·         JWs (Jehovah's Witness), Mormons -- they know the church is apostate???

·         KJVo -- they’re more “conservative”/fundamentalist??

·         Flat Earth -- they are more “correct/truth loving”/fundamentalist???

·         …& many other conspiracy theories

·         Annihilationists -- they are more studious or have good points?

·         Ransom Theory of Atonement

·         PSA deniers -- they are more early church/original/historical????

·         Preterists -- they think almost all End-Times predictions already happened in the past, mostly recorded in history

 

Church of Christ

Darwinism -- as if it is more scientific!

Freethinking as if mindlessness discovers the truth…

 

Atheism is a fundamental sinning against you human brain and therefore blaspheming the moral sacredness and duty to believe in, fear, and zealously obey God

 

Free thinking examples

Skipping rules, being mindless, being worse and thinking you're better...

 

 

Flat Earth ≈ KJVo ≈ Darwinism = All liberal mindless Freethinking

 

It's often wrongly imagined that you're actually better than others by believing these buffooneries, when reality is that being a free thinking liberal who skips over the rules is not better but worse.

 

These are classic examples of apostasy denial by flattering yourself into thinking you're better and ignoring your desolation and total blindness and depravity.

 

So is the way of all Bible disobedience – it is freethinking exactly like the principles of atheism

you are wrong because you are sinning and violating against the sacredness of the logical brain that God gave you to point right back to the character of who he is. You are obligated by the logical brain implanted in your head to acknowledge morality and the binding obligations of fearing and acknowledging the Almighty Creator of everything

 

Having a different opinion or figurative interpretation of the Bible is not your right or prerogative, it's your damnable heresy and rebellious disobedience of abominable desolation

 

Because of this a church person is worse than an atheist when they knowledge their moral obligations written in the Scriptures, and conscientiously choose to go directly against the Truth of what the Bible literally directly actually says

 

…

 

>>Scrip:

You have a reputation of being alive but you are dead

 

Indeed, these movements and philosophies and denominations are worse than average

 

But these extreme examples are not the only ones guilty of embarrassing boasting

 

Boasting from inferiority is what all church people do...

 

Walk into any church and look at what they emphasize the most and that is what they are most wrong about.

 

Example:

 

Baptist love to boast about salvation and that is what they are most heretical and blasphemous about.

 

So all church people need to repent of being worse and boasting better

 

Ignoring the Problem

9/16/26-9/17/26

Ignoring the problem does not make you further along to a solution so that you should boast down against those who are more honestly afflicted than yourself

Disregarding direct experience

Exalting folly

 

Ignoring the problem is also part of avoiding your own desolation and failing to beg

 

You must be the first to self-identify your own weaknesses and desolations

 

You must catch up to other people's afflictions before you go about boasting a better solution  whenever you have been ignoring the problem from the first place to begin with

Overview of Church Scandals

100s AD Early Church was True (Persecuted, Hardcore, Clean!)

300s AD Church became Apostate (Adulterated, Secular, Catholic)

400s AD Church became Idolatrous (Icons, Villains, Corruption)

1000s AD Church became Philosophical ("Intellectual")

1400s ad Church became Pornographic (Sistine Chapel, etc.)

1500s AD Church became Protestant (Justified Sinfulness)

1600s AD Church became Ritualistic (Dry, “Formal”, Theoretical)

1700s AD Church became Evangelical (Zealous, Compromised, Imperfect)

1800s AD Church became Goofy (Feminism, Intellectual Dishonesty, Misguided Zeal)

1900s AD Church became Easy (Extremely Secular, Liberal, Immoral, Easy Salvation)

2000s AD it's high time Church got Saved! (Repent, Stop Sinning, Obeying ALL!)

 

The imperfections of churchy flesh have left us with the absolute disaster we have today with churchianity. We absolutely must repent and get clean and True and righteous like the early church and even more complete with Truth to bring us through the deceptions and rebellions of the End Times.

We all know that the church is apostate

·         All you have to do is look… -- in the Bible & in church today

·         There is an abundance of clear and direct disobedience

·         No head coverings

·         immodesty

·         Adulterous remarriage

·         Feminism

·         Etc.

 

We need to stop pretending that apostasy is unclear, when it is in blaring daylight!

 

 

 

It’s not just because of shallow problems

 

It’s not just because of…

·         Traditional heresies, like JW’s, Mormons, etc.

·         They don’t have a vibrant “relationship” with their god

·         They’re socially liberal

Romans_3:11-4:13

 

Sinning is a Key Feature of Apostasy

2/24/24…2/28/24

 

Sin = key aspect!

 

Apostasy is closely related to Desolation.

They both prove how bad and evil we are.

 

Jer_2:19 – evil & apostasy will correct you with bitterness

 

>> Scrip:

2Pe_2:4-6

2Pe_2:7-9 – RIGHTEOUS Lot contrasted with sinning unrighteous apostates

·         Notice that church people today don’t like to celebrate Lot’s righteousness that much

·         Apostates see him as lacking virtue, because he still condemns their apostasy unto this day!

 

2Pe_2:10-22 – cannot cease from sin

a key feature of apostate unrighteous counterfeit moral criminals is that they cannot cease from sin

 

2Pe_2:16 – going outside of law, makes you outside of your mind

 

Jud_1:

 – Promising them freedom

Jud_1:4-6 – Grace perversion is explicitly predicted for end-times sinning deception

Today’s grace is UNBELIEF that results in being destroyed!

(Jud_1:6 – Hercules/superman principle)

Jud_1:7 – real justice = continuous fire for sexual murder

Jud_1:11 – associated with murder:

Cain & Balaam’s lust trap that resulted in thousands of people dying

 

Blasphemy

Jud_1:8-

 

Eze_18:24-26 – righteous turn away from righteousness… & sins

Eze_33:1-33 –

 

Psa_78:16-36 – Yet they sinned still more against him

1Ki_22:51-53 – Ahaziah the son of Ahab… did evil…sin

 

Rom_3:11-4:13 – all sinned & turned aside

 

Mat_24:12 – lawlessness = cold love

 

>see: Nave's examples!

 

See: PredestinedEndTimes

 

Immorality

Jud_1:8, etc.

 

So, Fight for the traditions including Purity:

2Th_2:

Jud_1:3

 

 

 

Bold Fleshballs in End Times

 

2Pe_2:10-22 – Bold flesh lust followers

See: Sinning (above)

 

>>Scrip:

Just as janas and jambries withstood moses

 

False Teachings = Apostasy

Heb_13:9 – strange teachings vs. favor

Col_2:8 – captive by philosophy and empty deceit… human tradition… elements of world

1Ti_6:10-21 – money-liking apostates vs. charged to obey perfectly

Tit_1:11-16 – greed teaching, laziness, turn fro Truth vs. freedom to be clean

 

2Pe_2:1 – were false prophets…will be false teachers

 

2Ti_4:3 – not endure healthy teaching

 

Zec_10:1-13:9 – false prophecy makes people wander

 

Joh_6:66 – people walk away when they are unwilling to believe hardcore Truth

They are leaning on their own understanding

 

 

Deception is the First Part of Apostasy

2/29/24…3/5/24

 

Church pervert rebels need to stop denying deception (and apostasy)!!!

They defiantly directly fight against soe of the most clear and explicit verses in the Bible (esp. about end times).

Matthew, Mark, & Luke all remember this as an essentially exact quote (not paraphrased) -- and church people are the only ones not taking this seriously!

“watch” = proactively throw your sight so that no one deceives you

Approach apostasy with your eyes open and don’t play any games of compromise!

Similar to 2Th_2: don’t lose your mind!

 

Mat_24:4, Mat_24:11; Mar_13:5; Luk_21:8 a – have caution to not let anyone deceive you!

 

This is the very first thing to obey when it comes to the temple destruction prophecy!

 

Mat_24:5; Mar_13:6; Luk_21:8 b – Many will come in Jesus name and deceive many

Notice you’re not allowed to say this is Muslims, like John McArthur, etc.

Muslims can participate in the end times, but that’s not DECEPTION for Bible obeyers to “watch out” against deception!

 

Mat_24:15; Mar_13:14; Luk_21:20 – Let him put two and two together to understand. Correlates with when you see Jerusalem surrounded

 

>>> get quote about Bible readers recognizes

 

2Pe_2:1-3 – stealthfully…faked words

·         Many follow them, because they deny the reality of deception

·         YOU/the church are the target, not just the rest of the world!

·         2Pe_2:3 – plastered/molded/formed/created/artificial words

 

2Pe_2:12 – illogical, physical, animalistic

 

2Pe_2:16 – going outside of law, makes you outside of your mind

 

Jud_1:8 – dreaming

>>Scrip:

Make my people to err with their dreams

 

Jud_1:10 – illogical, soulish beasts

Notice the mindlessness that they commit which is forbidden in:

2Th_2:

 

Know up again. Let him be doing mindfulness.

 

Apostasy ≠ overt “turning away” – that would not be deception!

Wicked wolves and hard hearted liars are telling you that apostasy is willful when the Bible explicitly teaching it DECEPTIVE!

 

Notice that apostasy deniers are deception deniers.

 

Antichrist = Another/False Jesus, Christ

3/5/24

Mat_24:5; Mar_13:6; Luk_21:8

 

Mat_24:11;

 

Standing in the “Temple” / “Where it ought not”

Dan

 

1Ma or 2Ma

 

Mat_24:15 –

Mar_13:14 – “Where it ought not”

Luk_21:20 – armies bringing desolation/destruction

 

2Th_2:

 

“Abomination” in most places ≈ Destruction in 2Pe_2:1 (i.e. destructive heresies)

 

Antichrist = Vengeance on Israel

Luk_21:22-32

 

 

 

Majority = Hell

“Many” Loose Apostate Fail; Only a Few/Remnant Saved

3/13/24

>> see Remnant in HC teachings / TRU?

 

Many are in contrast with the “few” who make it and find life.

 

Mat_7: “many” vs. “few”

Luk_13: few saved

We see that “many” addresses the majority, while “few” addresses the minority.

 

2Pe_2:2 – many will follow their apostate destructive ways

Comp:

>>Scrip:

anyone who comes in another way is a thief and robber

Jesus & Malachi: Moses & Elijah Are Our Only Hope

1/12/24; 1/14/24; Feb 2024; 2/24/24

 

In Luk_18:8 Jesus asks a very pointed question:

 

 

Luk_18:8 CAB  I tell you that He will execute justice for them speedily. Nevertheless [πλὴν], when the Son of Man comes, will He really [ἆρα] find faith on [ἐπὶ – upon] the earth [τῆς γῆς – the land]?"

Luk_18:8  λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ποιήσει τὴν ἐκδίκησιν αὐτῶν ἐν τάχει. πλὴν ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐλθὼν ἆρα εὑρήσει τὴν πίστιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς;

 

This Verse Applies to Real Obeyers, NOT church People

·         They are being sinned against (Luk_18:1-8)

·         They are hurting and longing for real justice (church people can’t claim that because they are always sinning and doing the injustice themselves)

·         They are always praying

·         They are both righteous and they are crying out to God (getting loud) -- compare that to lazy churchianity… (they never get those two combinations because they can’t even get the first one)

 

Looking around today, Jesus’ Words are indeed very relevant and in grave danger of overtaking us, except to wicked hypocrites who pretend that there are plenty of believers today – and they make Jesus’ Words out to be nothing…

 

As a church person, you’re going to say “yes, he can very easily find faith on the earth when happily returning to the millions or billions of Christians everywhere!”

But this naivety is worse than “Mr. too quick” who thinks he can be Jesus’ disciple without deeply considering the implications of reality when it comes to following the real Jesus (as seen in DTA).

 

Jesus asked this convicting question for very good reasons, and if you dismiss them you are disobeying the attitude that He is teaching us to have about the end times.

 

Jesus is reinforcing the same context that is prophesies countless times in the Scriptures, such as Malachi 3 – 4.

 

See:

(v)  The Doctrine of “Us” (Believe The Bible!): a. Who: Mal_3:13-18…..

Compare this with the sinners who disobeyed this teaching!

 

Mal_4:4 WEB  "Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.

Mal_4:4 LB  “Remember the law of My servant Moses, accordingly as I charged him with it in Horeb for all Israel, even the commandments and ordinances.

Mal_4:4  (3:22) καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω ὑμῖν Ηλιαν τὸν Θεσβίτην πρὶν ἐλθεῖν ἡμέραν κυρίου τὴν μεγάλην καὶ ἐπιφανῆ,

Mal_4:5 WEB  Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes.

Mal_4:5 And, behold, I will send to you Elijah the Tishbite, before the great and glorious day of the Lord comes;

Mal_4:5  (3:23) ὃς ἀποκαταστήσει καρδίαν πατρὸς πρὸς υἱὸν καὶ καρδίαν ἀνθρώπου πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ, μὴ ἔλθω καὶ πατάξω τὴν γῆν ἄρδην.

Mal_4:6 WEB  He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse [devotion/anathema / total destruction were no one survives]."

Mal_4:6 who shall turn again the heart of the father to the son, and the heart of a man to his neighbor, lest I come and smite the earth grievously.”

Mal_4:6  (3:24) μνήσθητε νόμου Μωυσῆ τοῦ δούλου μου, καθότι ἐνετειλάμην αὐτῷ ἐν Χωρηβ πρὸς πάντα τὸν Ισραηλ προστάγματα καὶ δικαιώματα.

(Note: there are lots of textual variants to consider, but hopefully comparing MT & LXX gets a general idea.)

 

Also, See: Luke 1 & the transfiguration (in ETO) for more on this “restoration” teaching in the Bible.

 

The Earth in Luke & Malachi

·         Luk_18:8: “will He really [ἆρα] find faith on [ἐπὶ – upon] the earth [τῆς γῆς – the land]?” (CAB)

·         Mal_4:6: ‘…so I won’t come and completely’ “strike the earth” (WEB) (with total destruction, sparing no one)

 

We see that when Jesus comes He’s about to destroy everyone, but He sends repentance through the two witnesses in the same way as John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus first comming.

 

So…

 

Malachi, at the end of the 12 Prophets [the end of the Protestant Old Testament] says that if Moses and Elijah don't come to restore all things, when God is about to come He would completely strike the Earth with a total destruction where no one survives (MT LXX essentially agree with only minor details varying).

 

This is the same “anathema” that Moses and Joshua obeyed when conquering the land of Canaan: destroy everything that breaths (i.e. if they have not forsaken all and fled for refuge in a foreign land, which spiritually correlates for obeyers in Heb_6:18).

 

The Earth would be completely ruined if Moses (Mal_4:4) and Elijah (Mal_4:5) don't come and restore all things! (as also seen in the Mount of Transfiguration and Rev_11:)

 

This is the foundational hope of the Old Covenant as we await the revelation of the New Covenant...

 

This is exactly why Jesus asks His critical question if He’ll find faith on the earth, because real faith is in critical danger of going totally extinct in the end times, and pretending otherwise is simple Bible mindless illogical disobedience and filthy apostate rebellion and apostasy denial!

 

This is also exactly why Jesus gives John the revelation of the Two Witnesses (Revelation 11) as one of our final hopes for Truth in the end times, to reveal who the real Jesus really is, before it’s too late, lest we all get caught up in doomed apostasy when Jesus comes back with fiery wrath in His eyes to destroy all His enemies…

 

Gospels Predict Apostasy for NT Believers

 

Mat_24:9-14 – many turn away… false prophets

Luk_8:13 –

Luk_18:8 –

 

When you are fearful and worrying when you are not supposed to then don’t care/pre-care or pre-divide up cares in worry about the results. Notice that this requires an extreme amount of submission and radical trust.

Mar_13:11/Luk_21:14

 

 

Lost Saltiness = Apostasy

Mat_5:13; Mar_9:50; Luk_14:34

 

Hype & Pessimism in the End Times

3/5/24

 

Luk_21:8

2Pe_2:

 

Wars & Famines in the End

3/5/24

Mat_24:6-8; Mar_13:7-8; Luk_21:9-10

 

Persecutions in the End

 

Betrayal, Persecution, Martyrdom

Mat_24:9-13; Mar_13:9-13; Luk_21:12-19

 

Mar & Luke = cause to be put to death

 

This can include feeling of justification as though they did not do it themselves, as is already practiced this day by apostates against obeyers.

 

Salvation = Endure to the end

Mat_24:13; Mar_13:13; Luk_21:19

 

>>Scrip:

he will appear a second time unto salvation

receiving the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls

 

Agony in the End Times

3/21/24

 

Luk_13: narrow gate

Jud_1:3 – agonize-upon faith

 

>> 

Watch in prayer becomes critical for being ready for Jesus’ return

 

 

Proclamation as a Testimony to All in the End

3/5/24

 

Mat_24:14; Mar_13:; Luk_21:

 

Search:

Testimony

 

Great Tribulation Includes Obeyers & Everyone

You’re not allowed to say ‘believers won’t be here for the tribulation’ or ‘great tribulation’

3/5/24

 

Jesus & The Bible already clearly said believers WILL be here.

Saying they won’t is willful perversion and mindless apostasy and end times disobedience denial.

 

Moses included multi-generations of Israel when saying “you” throughout the law, especially in Deuteronomy.

 

Jesus, just like Moses, keeps saying “you” – not another dispensation of people, so you’re not allowed to say that the group called “you” won’t be there!

 

Mat_24:21-22; Mar_13:19-20; Luk_21:23

 

Mat_24:22 and Mar_13:20 specifically say the elect will be there among “all flesh”

 

 

Jerusalem = Where Obeyers Are at in the End?

3/5/24

 

Mar_13:9

Mat_24:20 – pray that your flight is not on a Sabbath

 

 

No Housing -- Obeyers in the Dessert in the End

Mat_24:16-18; Mar_13:14-16; Luk_21:21-22

 

Luk_17:32 – remember Lot’s Wife

 

Virginity for the End Times?

Mat_24:19; Mar_13:17; Luk_21:23; Jud_1:3

 

Then 1Co_7: could find an ultimate fulfillment of ‘the current distress’

 

2Pe_2:6-8, etc. – Lot “Rush dragged” / rescued / delivered out of his doomed house

Angel took them by the hand

This is called kindness/mercy

 

Note that you are always supposed to be praying this for yourself and others in the Lord’s prayer!

 

Just like the paralleled flood in 2Pe_2:4-5…

·         Everything was destroyed

·         They fled for refuge

·         Monotheists all know that these destructions are predictive of the end times

 

Jesus made this same correlation of the Noah’s flood and Lot’s Rescue.

 

 

 

Paul, Peter, John, & Jude Predict Apostasy of the NT Church

Jud

 

1Ti_1:19-20 – apostasy calls for excommunication (JTC)

Rev_3:16 – spit out

 

1Jo_2:19 –

Heb_6:4-8 –

Heb_10:  – don't forsake

Heb_6:4-6 –

Heb_10:26-29 –

Heb_10:39 –

Heb_12:15-17 – bitter/immoral/unholy apostasy = opposite of divine favor

1Ch_28:9 – if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever

 

2Co_11:2-4

2Co_11:13-15 –

Exo_32:1-35 – when Moses Delayed they made an idol & called it by God’s most holy name and broke His rules

1Ki_12:28-32 – wicked perverts keep repeated this exact same apostasy, adding insult to injury, as though all the preceding evil and death weren’t enough… which is exactly what church people are doing…

 

Notice they developed a personal guidance spirit independent of Moses (“As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him”) just exactly like church people do today against all the righteous who have proclaimed Truth to them.

 

So also anointed One is delayed and they have called all kinds of idols by His Holy name, and they never stop breaking His rules.

 

If anyone really feared God they would do no such proud boasting and rebellion.

 

1Joh_2:15-24 – they went out of us to show they weren’t “out” of us

1Co_10:5-24 – prostituting like they did against Moses

 

We see that John also agrees that sinning against “US” = apostasy.

 

True Favor vs. Invalid Apostate Grace

2/13/24

 

1Pe_5 – favor

1Pe_5:12 – this is the real true favor in which you have stood

 

This is why it is so diabolical and underhanded and perverted and wicked and evil to pretend like there is no apostasy or fakeness at hand and take it for granted that you can just throw around the word Grace as though that's a good thing when everyone's wallowing in horrible perversion and open blatant rebellion and defiant disobedience to the chief rules that Jesus commanded

 

 

Laziness = Apostasy

 

Luk_17:34-18:31 – one taken, the other left

 

Luk_19:21-44 – 10 talents

>>TSK

 

>>Scrip:

Begins to eat and drink with the drunkards.. the lord will come un-expectantly

 

Fleshliness = Apostasy

 

Jer_17:5 – cursed apostasy: cursed man who makes flesh his strength… heart turns away from Lord

 

Joh_6: – spirit who make alive [but] they no longer walked with Him (Joh_6:65-8:40)

 

Gal_5:4-24 – falling from Favor into flesh & no longer being persuaded to obey Truth

 

Crucifixion = Solution to Apostasy

1Co_9:27 – beat my body…to avoid being tested/disapproved

 

2Co_13:5-11 – test selves & do not wrong… nothing against Truth

(1Co_15:2)

 

2Ti_4:10 – “Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted” Paul (ESV)

 

Immorality = Apostasy

Jer_5:6-15 – destroyed for idolatry, adultery, lusting, prostitution, & many rule breakings

 

1Co_10:5-24 – prostituting like they did against Moses

 

Rom_1:18-2:8 – knew God but didn’t retain knowledge… prostitution… homosexuality

 

 

Tribulation, Trails, & Fear Can Cause Apostasy

 

Pro_24:10-16 – faint in the day of adversity

>> LXX needed

 

Mat_13:21-44 – “bad ground” stumbled by persecution (parable)

 

Joh_15:6 – no remaining = withered & burnt

 

Mat_24:10-13; Mar_13:12-13; Luk_21:16-19 -- Global tripping including unbelievers

 

 

Personal Apostasy

Mat_10:33 – denial is mutual

Repent of Apostasy!

7/3/26

 

How can we be so deluded and rebellious!?

 

How can you get to the point where your conscience is so evil and perverted and twisted with hatred for the truth while going to church and flattering God with your supposed worship songs?

 

Get out of this hard-hearted darkness and messy junkie rebellion!

 

Oh how ironic!

Apostates singing about their delusional left behind after the secret rapture heresy bemoan and lament saying, how could we have been so blind!?

 

Sign Up!

Denying Apostasy

Apostasy Denial Is Logically Illegal

2/17/24; 2/24/24

 

Behold someone talking about apostasy and simultaneously denying that it will happen to those who the Bible says will get deceived:

 

“Clearly these events will follow some sort of well-established pattern such that Bible readers and sign watchers will be able to discern that the end is at hand and take appropriate precautions.”

https://ca.thegospelcoalition.org/article/10-things-you-should-know-about-the-great-apostasy/

2/28/24

 

They “willfully forget” (2Pe_2: apostasy) that it will “deceive even the elect if possible” with “STRONG delusion”

 

https://www.quora.com/Why-is-it-claimed-that-The-Church-is-in-a-state-of-apostasy-when-no-specific-examples-are-given

 

 

We all know that the church is apostate.

 

As they say:

the only reason anyone is ignorant is because they ignore it.

 

Church people and disbelievers have this in common, very much so:

 

The secularist and the humanist downplay and trivialize their sin in proactive denial of their obvious and overt wretchedness

 

They flatter themselves and pretend that they are a good person when everyone knows that humans are rotten and evil to the core, and desolation deniers are just playing fool Harty games of outrageous ridiculousness and start ignorance of the education of monotheism that has been gloriously accomplished in modern societies.

 

The church person trivializes and denies their sin and wretched desolation even more than the disbeliever and secular humanist on the street:

 

The church person pretends like the church is not apostate, and they trivialize their sin as though it's not sending them to hell and as though it's not something to be desperately begging for salvation from

 

The secularist and the church person are together alike are being outrageously ridiculous intrivializing and denying their sin and it's morbid and deathly consequences.

 

The church person worst of all denies that they are in an awful state of desolation and they trivialize the guilt and horrible condemnation looming over them, pretending like they are not so bad off in their apostasy and denying the reality of liability and their doomed responsibility for their horrible luxurious prideful wretched sinfulness and complete another ignorance of God or any real knowledge.

 

Undeniable Apostasy

7/3/26

 

Today's apostasy is truly undeniable because

(1) the Bible very clearly predicted apostasy, and ...

(2) Global Apostasy is objectively observable everywhere today

it has been clearly and absolutely confirmed with no shadow of a doubt

 

But even though the Bible predicted and we now clearly see the undeniable proof of global apostasy today, part of that rebellion of apostasy is to have an astonishingly rebellious attitude of denying the apostasy right under their nose in the Bible and right in front of their face in church when they look up

 

One of the great profound striking manifestations of the rebellious apostasy today is that church people have such an amazingly rebellious attitude of apostasy denial, when talking about apostasy.

 

Apostasy denial is a horrifyingly dirty conscience and a bad heart that is in obstinate denial and ferocious rebellion against the convincing proof of its horrible sinfulness and desolation

How Much Apostasy?

7/3/26

How Many Are Apostate?

 

1Ti_4:1 – some will depart from the faith

 

some ?

 

Church people say that “some” means not all, and therefore not the majority

As if the english word “Some” proves that the apostasy is not essentially universal but only very limited

 

…

 

Church people pretend like it's only some people who will apostate and therefore it's not the majority

 

But some does not specify what percentage is included, especially in the Greek Bible

 

Some today might imply a minority depending on which English dialect you speak and what presuppositions you're bringing to the text, but that is definitely not specified by the Greek New Testament in 1st Timothy 4:1

 

Some, only means some, and it doesn't mean the minority or the majority but it is left unspecified and therefore since we have to be obeying all the Bible to inherit heaven we have to submit to other Bible verses to tell us what the particular essence and percentage might be of apostasy to come in church

 

The pre-flood is our example warning

7/3/26

 

The pre flood world is an example of how much apostasy is to come.

 

God was so angry with humans who were completely given over to evil that he was ready to destroy the whole world.

 

Only know I found favor and saved eight people

 

Jesus absolutely made it clear that the end times would correlate with this kind of dreadful apostasy:

 

>>Scrip:

As it was in the days of Noah so it will be in the days of the coming of the son of man

Remember lot's wife!

 

As with lot escaping Sodom and Gomorrah so also we are supposed to not look back

 

Israel's apostasy is our warning and example!

7/3/26

 

We already have the nation of Israel as the example of apostasy.

 

They were constantly rebelling against Moses and talking about stoning Aaron, and only two spies came back with a good report to make it into the promised land.

 

Don't ever say that Israel's apostasy teaches us that most church people are going to win this race!

…

 

Apostasies of rebellion are always the vast majority of people in a certain Faith group

 

Paul's warnings to the Thessalonians are meaningless if it is merely a little unfaithfulness or rattling of unfaithfulness when some depart from the faith - the Christian apostasy that Paul warns us against has to be definitive and encompassing and remarkably widespread and overtaking to fall in the category of rebellion and apostasy

 

That's what apostasy is all throughout the Bible - it's not some isolated failure or little defection where some means the minority depart from the faith just as they always have throughout all of history of Israel and the church, but an apostasy has to be a wide sweeping essentially global event in order to be called apostasy and put in the theology of apostasy throughout the whole Bible

 

To say that some departing from the faith is a minority of people who apostate is an essential category error - a minor departure from the faith of some Christians is not the category of apostasy throughout the whole Bible

 

There is such a thing as individual rebellion apostasy - but individual apostasy does not count as the coming apostasy of the lawless one that leads massive religious Church identity astray and leaves only a remnant of Truth on the Earth

 

 

Again, calling apostasy as if it does not include the majority of church pretends like the doctrine of remnant is meaningless

 

There's always an apostasy of God's people and there's always a remnant according to the election of God's Divine favor

 

Otherwise you wouldn't call it apostasy and you wouldn't call it remnant unless virtually everyone falls away and the small fragmentary minority finds truth to be saved from the dreadful rebellion and dark failure of those who used to represent truth and have now become worshipers of Satan...

Apostasy Denial is Everywhere!

Everyone Denies The Apostasy

2/24/24

 

Pretty much everyone denies the apostasy and one form or fashion and to one degree or the other.

 

Pretty much the entire church has been in denial of apostasy for almost 2,000 years.

 

The Catholic Church outright denies the great apostasy that started climaxing in the late 200s and culminated in the council of Nicea, because their very essence as Catholics is established by laying claim to an 'unbroken succession to the apostles', which is absolutely absurd in light of how lawless and dirty and sinful to Catholic church is.

you simply can't claim to have an unbroken succession to the apostles when every single link after the 200s is broken right in front of our eyes, for the whole world to behold.

 

Protestant is in seems to acknowledge an apostasy because that is the basis of being Protestant and rejecting the Catholic Church, however they of course congratulate themselves as though they rebirth Christianity or return to anything original when in fact they went back to the Post apostate nastiness of Augustine!

 

So Protestantism is based on pretending to point out an apostasy only to embody the exact same profanity upon which it is built. You can't claim exclusion to the apostasy you pretend to confront when you're doing the exact same essence of its errors and fellowshiping with the exact same fathers of its filth.

 

Because of this, protestantism pretends to point out apostasy yet in reality and in actual practice, denies that they are a part of it, when everyone can plainly see that they are.

 

Similarly, restoration movements today make a claim that they are pointing out apostasy, and even go to Great lengths sometimes to at least document that apostasy is very real, but those who are called restorationists and varying degrees and flavors and fashions, almost always range from bad to outright disgusting morbid, dirty, and demonic, like Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, and other flaming liberal heretics.

There are clearly many more examples of early apostasy, as seen above.

 

Apostasy in the 100-200s

 

“Hegesippus, a historian of the period immediately following apostolic times (A.D. 110-180), is quoted by Eusebius in his Ecclesiastical History as saying:

the church continued until then as a pure virgin and uncorrupt virgin: whilst if there were any at all attempted to pervert the sound doctrine of the saving gospel, they were yet skulking in dark retreats; but when the sacred choir of apostles became extinct, and the generation of those that had been privileged to hear their inspired wisdom had passed away, then also the combination of impious errors arose by fraud and delusions of false teachers. These also, as there were none of the apostles left, henceforth attempted, without shame to preach their false doctrine against the gospel of truth.[4]”

Eusebius Pamphilius of Cæsarea, Ecclesiastical History; available in Philip Schaff (editor), Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers: Series 2 (Vol. 1-14) (New York: Christian Literature Publishing Co., 1890–1899), 1: volume 3, chapter 32

Early Centuries

 

Cyprian

"We also have the testimony of Cyprian, the bishop of Carthage, North Africa, who served from A.D. 248-258. Cyprian paints a stark and disturbing picture of apostasy among the Christians of his day. Bishops, he said, had lost their own devotion to God’s service (some even abandoning their congregations) and the clergy had lost their integrity. The Saints had become insatiably greedy, had lost their compassion for the needy, had become proud, and behaved in undisciplined ways. Christians were marrying pagans, practicing perjury, commmitting fraud, displaying contempt for authority, and even betraying their faith. Cyprian argued that since the Saints had sunk to such low levels of depravity they rightly deserved the harsh judgments of God."[11]

…

“A religious reformation is afoot, and at heart it is the endeavor to recover for our modern life the religion of Jesus as against the vast, intricate, largely inadequate and often positively false religion about Jesus. Christianity today has largely left the religion which he preached, taught and lived, and has substituted another kind of religion altogether. If Jesus should come back to now, hear the mythologies built up around him, see the creedalism, denominationalism, sacramentalism, carried on in his name, he would certainly say, 'If this is Christianity, I am not a Christian.'[18]”

Catholics Deny Apostasy With Straw Man Arguments

2/24/24

C:\Files\Videos--YouTube\Bible-Videos\EndTimes--Videos\The Great Apostasy DEBUNKED!.mkv

 

“The most troubling thing about this thesis [that there was a great apostacy in the first centuries of the church], to me as a Catholic and especially as an historian, is that it is almost completely impervious to fact. Even when presented with the very earliest of the Church Fathers — say, the authors of the Didache (c. A.D. 70s), who suggest Baptism by effusion (pouring) as a valid alternative to immersion; Clement of Rome (c. A.D. 70s?), who argues for authority by apostolic succession; or Ignatius of Antioch (c. A.D. 107), who clearly states his belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, and unequivocally places local authority in the hands of a single, pastoral bishop — proponents of this “Great Apostasy” theory reject such writings, arguing that, since these doctrines do not fit with their own biblical interpretations, it demonstrates that the Church had already fallen away from “biblical truth,” even within the lifetimes and memories of the Apostles and within the era of New Testament authorship.”

“why could not the Holy Spirit, whom the Lord promised would guide His people into all truth (John_16:13), have also preserved the Church? — the hearts and minds of His people, and the shepherds of His flock?”

https://lonelypilgrim.com/2014/06/16/reading-church-history-as-a-protestant-the-great-apostasy-narrative/

2/24/24 [with insertions for clarification]

 

Notice that these arguments have nothing to do with disproving the “Great Apostasy” that is so clear in the Bible and history.

 

Nothing that is mentioned here disproves the Bible’s “Great Apostasy” like these denying Catholics pretend.

 

For example, those who submit to the “Great Apostasy” fact do NOT “reject such writings” or any of the implications mentioned above by this Catholic webpage.

 

These are encouraging historical references that clearly reinforce Bible obedience, and confirm yet further that those who came after these earliest writers did in fact choose a “Great Apostasy” in the later 200s and the 325 AD council.

2Co_2:16 To some we are the fragrance of death leading to death, but to others the fragrance of life leading to life. And who is sufficient for these things?

2Co_2:17 For we are not as the rest, corrupting the word of God; but as of sincerity [εἰλικρινείας], but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ.

2Co_2:17  οὐ γάρ ἐσμεν ὡς οἱ πολλοὶ καπηλεύοντες τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἀλλ᾿ ὡς ἐξ εἰλικρινείας, ἀλλ᾿ ὡς ἐκ Θεοῦ κατενώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐν Χριστῷ λαλοῦμεν.

Unbelief Flatters & Skips

(A) Discouragement/Unbelief about the Bible’s tragic stories correlates with (& maybe results in) (B) pretending you are the good guy and (C) skipping over, and avoiding personally applying, the warnings of failure throughout the Bible.

 

Stop: avoiding the Bible, automatically pretending you’re the good guy, failing to ask how Biblical warnings apply to you, and failing to be changed by warnings of Truth.

 

Skipping = Drawing Back

·         Don’t “draw back unto destruction” (Heb_10:39 -- seen below) when the Bible tells us sobering Truth.

·         Hebrews constantly tells us to ‘run into the fire’ (Heb_6, 10, 12, etc.) with clean faith in Truth enough to be saved

·         “Drawing back” shows you’re Discouraged by “Bad Guy Stories” in the Bible & you’ve got apprehensions about the threats of Truth -- which lacks reverent saving faith.

 

>>>>>> 

The Point: Discouragement about the Bad Guy Stories in the Bible: Flatters, Skips, re-interprets, explains away, & avoids personal application, and fails to heed warnings & change, and establishes lazy thinkers into bad guys in the end.

 

Fully Embrace the warning of those who fail in the Bible, by clean faith that justifies God, so you won’t be like them in the end.

Stop Thanking…???

(Boasting that you're the good guy / saved)

 

Let’s consider the Tax Collector & Pharisee…

 

Summary of the Tax Collector & Pharisee

Luk_18:9 – Parable to self-righteous, despising * others. (* making out as nothing)

Luk_18:10 – Pharisee & tax collector pray in temple.

Luk_18:11 – Pharisee stands apart, thanks God he’s not like sinners.

Luk_18:12 – Fasts twice weekly, tithes everything.

Luk_18:13 – Tax collector afar off, won’t lift eyes, beats chest, pleads for appeasement-payment (satisfaction / Propitiation / atonement)

Luk_18:14 – Tax collector justified; self-exalted * humbled, humble ** exalted. (* lifted up ** pushed-down)

 

Luk_18:9 CAB  Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised [ἐξουθενοῦντας] the others:

Luk_18:9  Εἶπε δὲ καὶ πρός τινας τοὺς πεποιθότας ἐφ᾿ ἑαυτοῖς ὅτι εἰσὶ δίκαιοι, καὶ ἐξουθενοῦντας τοὺς λοιποὺς, τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην·

Luk_18:9  ειπεν δε TSAκαι προς τινας τους πεποιθοτας εφ εαυτοις οτι εισιν δικαιοι και εξουθενουντας τους λοιπους την παραβολην ταυτην

Luk_18:10 Two men went up to the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

Luk_18:10  ἄνθρωποι δύο ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν προσεύξασθαι, ὁ εἷς Φαρισαῖος καὶ ὁ ἕτερος τελώνης.

Luk_18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men--swindlers, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.

Luk_18:11  ὁ Φαρισαῖος σταθεὶς πρὸς ἑαυτὸν ταῦτα προσηύχετο· ὁ Θεός, εὐχαριστῶ σοι ὅτι οὐκ εἰμὶ ὥσπερ οἱ λοιποὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἅρπαγες, ἄδικοι, μοιχοί, ἢ καὶ ὡς οὗτος ὁ τελώνης·

Luk_18:12 I fast twice a week, I tithe on all things, as many as I acquire.'

Luk_18:12  νηστεύω δὶς τοῦ σαββάτου, ἀποδεκατῶ πάντα ὅσα κτῶμαι.

Luk_18:13 And the tax collector, standing far away, would not so much as lift his eyes towards heaven, but beat on his chest, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!'

Luk_18:13  καὶ ὁ τελώνης μακρόθεν ἑστὼς οὐκ ἤθελεν οὐδὲ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν ἐπᾶραι, ἀλλ᾿ ἔτυπτεν εἰς τὸ στῆθος αὐτοῦ λέγων· ὁθεός, ἱλάσθητί μοι τῷ ἁμαρτωλῷ.

Luk_18:13  TSBκαι ο Aδε τελωνης μακροθεν εστως ουκ ηθελεν ουδε τους οφθαλμους Aεπαραι εις τον ουρανον TSBεπαραι αλλ ετυπτεν TSBεις το στηθος αυτου λεγων ο θεος ιλασθητι μοι τω αμαρτωλω

Luk_18:14 I say to you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

Luk_18:14  λέγω ὑμῖν, κατέβη οὗτος δεδικαιωμένος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ παρ᾿ ἐκεῖνος· ὅτι πᾶς ὁ ὑψῶν ἑαυτὸν ταπεινωθήσεται, ὁ δὲ ταπεινῶν ἑαυτὸν ὑψωθήσεται.

…

Luk_18:11 NKJV The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.’

Luk_18:13 NKJV And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’

Luk_18:14 NKJV I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.

Obey Luk_18:9

"Upon myself, I see and know that I am not being righteous"

 

Translating the Egocentrism -- in Luk_18

This is hard to translate. Some think the Pharisee is praying about himself, and others have it that he is praying with himself -- either way the Pharisee is having an egocentric prayer

 

Honesty Moment:

Who Do You Identify With in this parable?

·         You = Tax Collector?: Have you ever read or heard this parable and identified with the tax collector?

·         Not Pharisaical?: Have you thanked God that you're not like the Pharisee? - that's missing the whole point!

Mom: 10/19/25, 3:30 PM

Neither one; I don't feel like a Pharisee or a tax collector. Especially thinking of the tax collectors in Alachua County, FL.

 

Notice the Flesh!

·         Flesh Claims Goodness: Notice how habitually are flesh keeps telling us we're the good guys...

·         Truth = Eye Opener: Let monotheism open your eyes to see just how evil your flesh really is!

 

Imagined Parallels

Church hypocrisy is full of imagination and fantasy, and therefore invalidly identifies itself with the repenting tax collector, saying things like...

·         Well I do bad stuff too, so if I simply admit it, then I'm just like him too!

·         We're all sinners saved by grace - so we just got to confess, acknowledge, and embrace it.

 

Stop Story Telling

Escape Fantasy Narratives !

·         The misidentification of our sinning flesh with the repenting tax collector is sick and dangerous storytelling that feeds our own egocentric hypocrisy.

·         Remember: we need to escape from this rhetoric propaganda!

·         We need to escape from these illusionary fantasy narratives our treacherous hearts keep telling us.

No-Sin is the Point!

Church people justify themselves as repentant sinners based on the fact that they see sin in their lives, and they so characteristically forget that Jesus repeatedly said 'go and sin no more' to those who might successfully repent.

 

But What’s Missing in Churchianity ’s Boast???

Luk_18:13 And the tax collector…beat on his chest

Luk_18:14 …this man went down to his house justified...he who humbles himself shall be exalted."

Luk_18:14  λέγω ὑμῖν, κατέβη οὗτος δεδικαιωμένος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ παρ᾿ ἐκεῖνος· ὅτι πᾶς ὁ ὑψῶν ἑαυτὸν ταπεινωθήσεται, ὁ δὲ ταπεινῶν ἑαυτὸν ὑψωθήσεται.

Sinful Misidentification Self-Flattery

·         Stop Blasphemous Lies: misidentifying with the tax collector, while also sinning, is unbelieving flattery against the Anointed One.
(Foreshadowing-Preview: why are we calling this sin “unbelieving flattery”? Because that’s precisely how it’s condemned in Joh_5:44 - quoted below…)

·         Repent of Inconsistency: remembering the fragment of ‘be merciful to me a sinner!’ while forgetting the tax collector’s low-eyed, chest-beating humility, brokenness, and resulting righteous-ification is hypocrisy.

 

What’s the Answer?

·         Right Attitude: How are we supposed to interact with the Tax Collector & Pharisee parable?

·         Right Conclusion:?: What are we supposed to walk away with and how should we take action when praying through this teaching?

 

Here’s a BIG part of the answer…

 

Remember Morality

·         Always ask “what’s the moral-ity of the story?”

·         Are you naïvely glad that you're not like the Pharisee (there’s no moral to that fantasy-story!), or are you soberly urgent to learn to escape from his hypocrisy (zealous toward righteous-morality)?

·         Do you walk away from this parable quickly identifying with the tax collector (there’s no moral to that naïve-rhetoric-propaganda-narrative!), or are you longing & yearning to be more like his broken, humbled, repentant justification (moralizing righteous-ification) that he returned to his house with?

Are you urgent to be changed by the Bible?

 

Low eyed, chest beating, go and here on out don't be going on sinning anymore...

 

------

 

At the end of conference I wanted to say to dad that it sounds like Sir was getting at the question of how do you know that your "confession" worked? Many people confess, yet they walk away repeating the same sins that they confessed to have disagreed with. So "confessing" is not enough to give a person hope. As my liberal grandma once said, 'I can't keep praying and asking forgiveness for the same thing. It makes no sense to keep coming back saying I'm sorry for the same thing. Am I really sorry?'

What is hopeful though is walking away and being able to finally do good! That requires Jesus acknowledging that a person's confession actually worked. And Jesus will truthfully, without lying or pretending, declare them as having gone back to their home as a morally changed person.

Church Apostasy -- Factual Reminders

>> INSP -- relocate to SRP

 

Apostates Unite: Jews & Church People in End-times Rebellion

·         Jews & Church People: It is vitally important to consider the example of apostate Jews because their failure and rebellion is radically tied up in churchianities apostasy in the end times as potently seen in Revelation.

·         Justified Sin: This is directly seen in Catholic apostasy to liturgize sinners into heaven, and Protestants are even more bold and liberal to boast in justified sinfulness.

·         Reformed Pride: Protestants are shameless and proudly boast in their sinfulness while rejoicing and bragging and benefits from the Bible that have nothing to do with them.

 

Rebellion of Claiming “Both”

·         Sin & Heaven: Protestantism is fundamentally a wholesale betrayal of monotheism by saying you can be sinning AND be justified at the same time - it has nothing to do with Moses and his promise of the New Covenant through Jesus, as also so powerfully proclaimed through Paul in Romans 10 (and similar passages)

·         Hub of Heresy: If you've been raised in a non-catholic context, this is your heretical heritage, and if you've been immersed in a Baptist and or reformed theology context (official Protestantism), you've been in the hub of heresy where it is preached and squawked all the more loudly than just about any other context.

·         Justified Sin Boasting: Protestant’s Justified Sin = Boasting in Benefits, without Proof & even CONTRARY to Proof!

 

Warning: we are not immune; we have been affected/infected by this; we need to get it totally out of our hearts!

 

Luther: “Simul Justus Et Peccator”

 

PPX:

Latin phrase "simul justus et peccator." In English, this means "at the same time just (or righteous) and sinner." This phrase was famously used by Martin Luther and is foundational in Protestant (especially Lutheran and Reformed) theology, expressing the doctrine that believers are declared righteous before God on account of Christ, even though they remain sinners in themselves. In the original Latin: "simul justus et peccator," meaning "simultaneously righteous and sinner" .

 

Explanation and Usage

"Simul" = at the same time, simultaneously.

 

"Justus" = just, righteous.

 

"Et" = and.

 

"Peccator" = sinner.

 

So, in full: "simul justus et peccator"—“simultaneously just and sinner.” This encapsulates the Protestant teaching that Christians, through faith in Christ, are justified and counted as righteous by God's imputation, even though they still wrestle with sin in their lives

Luther wrote, “Whatever sins I, you, and all of us have committed or may commit in the future, they are as much Christ’s own as if He Himself had committed them” (Galatians Lectures, 1535).

 

Protestant Quotes Luther: 1517.org

 

“Simultaneously Righteous and Sinner: An Introduction

06/08/18

 

Without the “simul” distinction, theology lapses into moralism.

 

“Nothing sums up the identity of a Christian better than the phrase: "Simul Iustus et Peccator." The Christian is, at the same time, wholly (totus) a sinner, who deserves God’s temporal and eternal punishment, and wholly (totus) righteous* before God on account of Jesus' Good Friday.””

 

This apostate goes on to quote Rom_7:15-20 as if Paul was describing his present condition (classic refusal to read the text and the context).

 

“Yet, at the same time, “...there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death” (Rom_8:1-2).

 

St. Paul doesn't say “I was” in the past tense, but “I practice the very evil that I do not want,” in the present. I'm an active sinner in fact, not in theory. The apostle confesses that in his flesh he's a slave to the law of sin and death, yet at the same time, in the present tense, through the Spirit he's a slave to Christ Jesus.”

…

“Later, Martin Luther repeated St. Paul’s teaching. Luther put it this way: “The saints in being righteous are at the same time sinners; they are righteous because they believe in Christ whose righteousness covers them and is imputed to them, but they are sinners because they do not fulfill the law and are not without sinful desires. They are like sick people in the care of a physician: they are really sick, but healthy only in the hope and insofar as they begin to be better, healed, i.e., they will become healthy. Nothing can harm them so much as the presumption that they are in fact healthy, for it will cause a bad relapse.”(Luther, Romans Commentary).””

…

““In short, our righteousness is called (in plain language) the forgiveness of our sins. Or, as it says here: sins not counted, sins covered, sins not to be seen. Here stand the clear plain words: All the saints are sinners and remain sinners. But they are holy because God in His grace neither sees nor counts these sins, but forgets, forgives, and covers them. There is thus no distinction between the saints and the non-saints. They are sinners alike and all sin daily, only that the sins of the holy are not counted but covered; and the sins of the unholy are not covered but counted. One would have a healing dressing on and is bandaged; the other wound is open and undressed. Nevertheless, both of them are truly wounded, truly sinners, concerning which we in our books in other places have abundantly bore witness. - Martin Luther, Introduction to Psalm 32.”

Protestant Heresy Empowers Sin-Pride…

 

George Whitefield Said…

After we are renewed, yet we are renewed but in part, indwelling sin continues in us, there is a mixture of corruption in every one of our duties; so that after we are converted, were Jesus Christ only to accept us according to our works, our works would damn us, for we cannot put up a prayer but it is far from that perfection which the moral law requireth. I do not know what you may think, but I can say that I cannot pray but I sin — I cannot preach to you or any others but I sin — I can do nothing without sin; and, as one expresseth it, my repentance wants to be repented of, and my tears to be washed in the precious blood of my dear Redeemer. Our best duties are as so many splendid sins. Before you can speak peace in your heart, you must not only be made sick of your original and actual sin, but you must be made sick of your righteousness, of all your duties and performances. There must be a deep conviction before you can be brought out of your self-righteousness; it is the last idol taken out of our heart. The pride of our heart will not let us submit to the righteousness of Jesus Christ. But if you never felt that you had no righteousness of your own, if you never felt the deficiency of your own righteousness, you cannot come to Jesus Christ.

Filthy Rags Righeousness -- Protestant Heresy Boasting

 

Typical Excuses Defending Filthy Rags Righteousness

Typical Pervert Irrational Reactions Against Anything True

 

“There are some troubling things in here, because Paul says everyone is shut up in sin and are not able to be saved through their works because their works are filthy rags. It's Christ's perfect works applied to us that makes us justified. We receive this by faith, a faith by which we are counted as being in Christ (you don't touch on the doctrine of our union with Him) and His good works savingly given to us through union with Him. The whole point of Romans 2-3 is that we could never be saved by the criteria of good works, even in a preservationist sense. I'm not seeing you're making this connection. The progressive nature of Romans' argument is that we are literally hopeless apart from Christ's works. He's arguing that we're guilty if we are standing on our own works. We must obey Christ because He is king, but the threat of His judgment is to drive us to cry out, "Lord, have mercy!" Not to make us think we can withstand His judgment through our feeble obedience.”

If you're sinning and you feel like you're right, you are more wrong than you are right, and therefore there is nothing to boast about!

You are persuaded by the flesh -- unlike Philippians and the rest of the Bible (Php_3:3; 2Co_5:16; Gal_3:3)

Eze_16:2 WEB  Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations;

Eze_16:2 LB  “Son of man, testify to Jerusalem of her iniquities;

Eze_16:2  Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, διαμάρτυραι τῇ Ιερουσαλημ τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῆς

Eze_16:2 NKJV “Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations.”

 

Eze_22:2 WEB  You, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? then cause her to know all her abominations.

Eze_22:2 LB  “And you, son of man, will you judge the bloody city? Yea, declare [παράδειξον] to her all her iniquities [ἀνομίας].

Eze_22:2  Καὶ σύ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, εἰ κρινεῖς τὴν πόλιν τῶν αἱμάτων; καὶ παράδειξον αὐτῇ πάσας τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῆς

Eze_22:2 NKJV “Now, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Yes, show her all her abominations!”

 

Eze_23:36 WEB  Yahweh said moreover to me: Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? then declare to them their abominations.

Eze_23:36 LB  And the Lord said to me, “Son of man, will you not judge Oholah and Oholibah, and declare [ἀπαγγελεῖς] to them their iniquities [ἀνομίας]?

Eze_23:36  καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, οὐ κρινεῖς τὴν Οολαν καὶ τὴν Οολιβαν; καὶ ἀπαγγελεῖς αὐταῖς τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῶν,

Eze_23:37 WEB  For they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands; and with their idols have they committed adultery; and they have also caused their sons, whom they bore to me, to pass through the fire to them to be devoured.

Eze_23:37 For they have committed adultery, and blood was on their hands, they committed adultery with their devices, and they passed through the fire to them their children which they bore to Me.

Eze_23:37  ὅτι ἐμοιχῶντο, καὶ αἷμα ἐν χερσὶν αὐτῶν· τὰ ἐνθυμήματα αὐτῶν ἐμοιχῶντο καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν, ἃ ἐγέννησάν μοι, διήγαγον αὐτοῖς δι᾿ ἐμπύρων.

Eze_23:38 WEB  Moreover this they have done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my Sabbaths.

Eze_23:38 So long too as they did these things to Me, they defiled My sanctuary, and profaned My Sabbaths.

Eze_23:38  ἕως καὶ ταῦτα ἐποίησάν μοι· τὰ ἅγιά μου ἐμίαινον καὶ τὰ σάββατά μου ἐβεβήλουν.

Eze_23:39 WEB  For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and behold, thus have they done in the midst of my house.

Eze_23:39 And when they sacrificed [σφάζειν] their children to their idols, they also went into My [holy-]sanctuary to profane it [εἰσεπορεύοντο εἰς τὰ ἅγιά μου τοῦ βεβηλοῦν αὐτά]; and whereas they did thus in the midst of My house,

Eze_23:39  καὶ ἐν τῷ σφάζειν αὐτοὺς τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῶν καὶ εἰσεπορεύοντο εἰς τὰ ἅγιά μου τοῦ βεβηλοῦν αὐτά· καὶ ὅτι οὕτως ἐποίουν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ οἴκου μου.

Eze_23:36 NKJV …“Will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations.”

 

If your sinning and you think you’re right = that is self-flattery = boasting against the Truth/Science/Facts/Reality!

 

Jam_3:14 – Don’t Lie Against the Truth

Wisdom from Above

Jas_3:12 CAB  It is not possible, my brothers, for a fig tree to make olives, or a vine to make figs, is it? Thus no spring is able to produce both salt and sweet water.

Jas_3:12  μὴ δύναται, ἀδελφοί μου, συκῆ ἐλαίας ποιῆσαι ἢ ἄμπελος σῦκα; οὕτως οὐδεμία πηγὴ ἁλυκὸν καὶ γλυκὺ ποιῆσαι ὕδωρ.

Jas_3:12  μη δυναται αδελφοι μου συκη ελαιας ποιησαι η αμπελος συκα Aουτε TSBουτως TSBουδεμια TSBπηγη αλυκον TSBκαι γλυκυ ποιησαι υδωρ

Jas_3:13 Is there anyone wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his works are in meekness of wisdom.

Jas_3:13  Τίς σοφὸς καὶ ἐπιστήμων ἐν ὑμῖν; δειξάτω ἐκ τῆς καλῆς ἀναστροφῆς τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ ἐν πρᾳότητι σοφίας.

Jas_3:14  But if you have bitter jealousy and strife in your heart, do not boast and lie against the truth.

Jas_3:14  εἰ δὲ ζῆλον πικρὸν ἔχετε καὶ ἐρίθειαν ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ ὑμῶν, μὴ κατακαυχᾶσθε καὶ ψεύδεσθε κατὰ τῆς ἀληθείας.

Jam_3:14 NKJV But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.

Jas_3:15 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.

Jas_3:15  οὐκ ἔστιν αὕτη ἡ σοφία ἄνωθεν κατερχομένη, ἀλλ᾿ ἐπίγειος, ψυχική, δαιμονιώδης.

Jas_3:15  ουκ εστιν αυτη η σοφια ανωθεν κατερχομενη Aαλλα TSBαλλ επιγειος ψυχικη δαιμονιωδης

Jas_3:16 For where jealousy and strife exist, there unrest and every evil deed are.

Jas_3:16  ὅπου γὰρ ζῆλος καὶ ἐριθεία, ἐκεῖ ἀκαταστασία καὶ πᾶν φαῦλον πρᾶγμα.

Jas_3:17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

Jas_3:17  ἡ δὲ ἄνωθεν σοφία πρῶτον μὲν ἁγνή ἐστιν, ἔπειτα εἰρήνική, ἐπιεικής, εὐπειθής, μεστὴ ἐλέους καὶ καρπῶν ἀγαθῶν, ἀδιάκριτος καὶ ἀνυπόκριτος.

Jas_3:17  η δε ανωθεν σοφια πρωτον μεν αγνη εστιν επειτα ειρηνικη επιεικης ευπειθης μεστη ελεους και καρπων αγαθων αδιακριτος TSBκαι ανυποκριτος

Jas_3:18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those making peace.

Jas_3:18  καρπὸς δὲ τῆς δικαιοσύνης ἐν εἰρήνῃ σπείρεται τοῖς ποιοῦσιν εἰρήνην.

Jas_3:18  καρπος δε TSBτης δικαιοσυνης εν ειρηνη σπειρεται τοις ποιουσιν ειρηνην

 

Uninspired Zeal

12/11/25; 12/14/25

·         Apostate flesh wants to believe that it is right (has a point to make) even though it has sin

·         James says it’s NOT inspired -- it's "not from above"

·         And there's nothing to boast about

 

This comes from classic Protestant apostasy…

 

“AND”-Boasts

12/9/25-12/10/25

Apostate Jews and church people both want to claim benefits without proof/sacrifice/cost.

 

Simultaneous AND, instead of exclusive decision of OR

 

George Whitefield preached a sinful gospel, even according to his own words!

>>> SEARCH/Quote/Link

 

Revelation → Atonement

Flattery → [x] Atonement (skipped)

 

Notice how he’s conflating/mixing duties with our own righteousness, and plainly declaring himself totally lost.

He wants to preach AND be sinful -- so stop preaching!

 

They want to claim that they are right and good while inconsistently retaining sin. They want to simultaneously have a point to make even though active current sin is observable in their life. - this is the theoretical justified sin of apostate Protestantism in vivid hypocritical practice.

 

Justified sinfulness is a characteristic of today's Protestant apostasy

Therefore...

When you feel like you're argument is justified even though you're sinful that agrees with the heritage of apostasy

 

The forgiveness of sins comes freely, but the prerogative to celebrate and re broadcast victory depends on confirmation that it has been successful.

 

No Lying

Eph_4:25 NKJV Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another.

Col_3:9 NKJV Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds.

Rev_21:8 NKJV …all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.

..

Pro_12:22 NKJV Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD, but those who deal truthfully are His delight.

Zec_8:16 NKJV These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor…

Psa_119:29 NKJV Remove from me the way of lying, and grant me Your law graciously.

 

>>Resume/>>>NEW

OR

AND instead of OR = Bible disobedience!

Very simple logical root issue:

Claiming BOTH sin AND heaven, is Saying AND when the Bible specifically says OR:

Bible: Justified OR Sinful!

(1 Corinthians 6; 1 Corinthians 10; Romans 3, 6 - 8, esp. Rom_6:16; Rom_6:23)

Church: Justified AND Sinful!

 

GOM Excitement

There is something so much more exciting the Good Message than sinning!

 

OR of Rom_6

 

Rom_6:16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves to whom you obey, whether of sin resulting in[to] [εἰς] death, or [ἢ] of obedience [ὑπακοῆς] resulting in [εἰς] righteousness?

Rom_6:16  οὐκ οἴδατε ὅτι ᾧ παριστάνετε ἑαυτοὺς δούλους εἰς ὑπακοήν, δοῦλοί ἐστε ᾧ ὑπακούετε, ἤτοι ἁμαρτίας εἰς θάνατον ἢ ὑπακοῆς εἰς δικαιοσύνην;

√ GNT-V

 

Rom_6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but [δὲ – however] the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Rom_6:23  τὰ γὰρ ὀψώνια τῆς ἁμαρτίας θάνατος, τὸ δὲ χάρισμα τοῦ Θεοῦ ζωὴ αἰώνιος ἐν Χριστῷ ᾿Ιησοῦ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡμῶν.

√ GNT-V

 

Parallels in Rom_6

·         Rom_6:16 – …sin resulting in death, or [ἢ] of obedience [ὑπακοῆς]…

·         Rom_6:23 …the wages of sin is death, but [δὲ – however] the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

 

(A) Rom_6: Simple

Righteousness → ·Holiness → Heaven |OR [ἢ/δὲ]| Sin → Death 

 

(B) Rom_6: More Detailed

Logical (Rom_6:11) Crucifixion (Rom_6:1-14) = Obedient-Listening (Rom_6:16-23) → ·Righteousness → ·Holiness (Rom_6:19) → Heaven (Rom_6:22)

OR [ἢ/δὲ]

Sin → Death (seen below)

Sin: Rom_6:1-2, Rom_6:6-7, Rom_6:10-23

Death: Rom_6:16, Rom_6:21, Rom_6:23

 

So…

OR → CHOOSE

 

CHOOSE!

Subtle Flattery

·         Hypocritical flattery is more subtle.

·         Flattering others might be “insincere” and not forthright with your own feelings or awareness.

·         Self-flattery is quite typically far more deceptive.

·         Flattering yourself often includes assuming you're the good guy in a Bible story, which can happen habitually and subconsciously - and it leads to hypocritical failures.

·         Flattering yourself often includes justifying your own point of view in an argument without scientific proof, and establishment of real, objective, moral, love-first, knowledge like the Bible requires.

 

Flattery Denial

Denial Instead of Repentance: When being confronted with inconsistency, the rebellious flash reduces discomfort by denying desolation instead of repenting of sin

10/5/25

 

Pet Flattery

10/28/25; 10/31/25; 11/6/25

·         Sanctified Protected Flattery: Watch out for the flattery our flesh LIKES, not what it doesn’t like!

·         Hypocritical Bias: It's easy to say, “I don't like the flattery” to that which doesn't apply to you - there's no morality or commendable virtue to that hypocritical bias! (that dishonesty is called, Indirect Inconsistency, and Cognitive Dissonance)

·         Real Risk: Danger ≠ What we already know about, nut what we are not already guarding against

·         Repent of “Adult Learning”: Self-directed learning based on what you already know is unteachable hardhearted self-willed perversion

·         Assuming Salvation = Epidemical Church-sanctified Hypocritical Flattery & Self-Flattery

·         Imagining Yourself as the good guy = The “Pet Flattery” Our Flesh Urgently needs to repent of -- that is NOT the way to read the warnings in the Bible!

·         Argumentative Self-Flattering: Self-flattery happens when you imagine that you're right in an argument, and yet you still have sin against your opponent, which you should not be fighting in the first place, usually 10/28/25; 10/31/25; 11/6/25; 11/9/25

 

Flattery Defined

 

Flattery is...

·         Fake Love: Pretending like your flesh is loving & prioritizing love.
(Flesh can do natural affection, and feelings love, but flesh doesn't do real substantial love)

·         Benefits without Cost: (the universal scandal of churchianity!)

·         Good without Obedience: Pretending like you're the good guy in the Bible before verifying that you're obeying all the Bible.

·         Conscience without Standards: Pretending that your flesh has a good conscience, when you haven't sufficiently raised your standards enough for it to work.

·         Conscience Integrity Failure: An inconsistent integrity breach that weekends morality and undermines a functioning conscience - since logically consistent moral standards are necessary for moral perception between right and wrong.

·         Brainless Moral Insanity: People become outrageously evil when they don't use their logical human brain to demand consistent moral standards and hefty binding obligations upon their own souls. (reminder: this is NOT about being smart!)

·         Narratives Against Truth: A breach of consistency between (A) your inner narrative with its social rhetoric and (B) the external, objectively observable scientific facts of your legitimate value proposition in the universe.

 

Flattery narratives make you selfish and loveless.

 

Flattery is Loveless

·         Relationships Clash with Narratives: People consciously and subconsciously commend themselves with a certain assumed value to the people outside of their life and when there's a clash, then conflict is eventually inevitable when seeking to persevere in relationships.

·         Manipulation is Incompatible: Flattery sets you up for failure because it is not right or logical for others to bend over reality to accommodate your false reality, and eventually you're greediness for invalid affirmations of value, that you don't legitimately have, will be detested, sabotaged, and opposed by others who are less tolerant of your particular selfish delusions than your flesh is.

·         Lovelessness = Bad Value: inconsistent value assessments form the foundation of all human conflict and lovelessness.

·         Pride = Death of Unity: When your value proposition is misaligned, inconsistent, inaccurate, and de-educated by flattery, this results in pride and sinful protests/objections when people don't love you on your own distorted, perverted, polluted, standards, ideals, and terms.

 

Victory Requires Defeating Flattery

Therefore being set free from arguments and achieving perfect unity through the Truthfulness of real Love are impossible with flattery (which is false).

So…

do you want the glories of New Covenant unity and the excitement of real Love?

Then make sure that…

If you want the benefits, don't be inconsistent when it comes to paying the price... (Luk_14:25-35)

·         Flattery sabotages, disqualifies, & "pulls the rug out from under" the remnant faith of the Bible, which calls on Jesus for salvation (Rom_16:18; Psa_12:2; Pro_26:28; 1Th_2:5).

·         Flattery is under a Biblical curse -- that goes all the way to the New Covenant (Job_17:5; Pro_29:5; Pro_28:23; Luk_6:26).

·         Those who flatter are also the same group of people who boast (Psa_5:9; Psa_10:3; 2Ti_3:2; Jam_3:5).

·         Prematurely congratulating others is the same group category of sinning that is prideful about oneself (Pro_27:2; Pro_25:27; Luk_18:9; 1Co_4:7).

·         If you flatter those continuing to sin, you will not recognize the repenting tax collector who actually STOPS sinning, and you will end up being the egocentric self-flattering Pharisee, who never went down to his house righteous-ified and saved in the end (Luk_18:9-14; Mat_23:28; Rev_3:17).

·         Flattering what humans exalt is a stinky abomination to God (Luk_16:15; Isa_5:20; Pro_17:15; Psa_10:4).

·         Likewise...

·         The one who is Justifying the wicked is making himself a stinky abomination before the Lord (Pro_17:15; Isa_5:23; Rom_1:32).

·         Flattery goes hand in hand with boasting, which leads straight to Antichrist (Dan_11:32; Dan_11:34; 2Th_2:3-4; Rev_13:5).

·         Imagine that: denying the apostasy predicted by the Bible leads you straight into Antichrist as the chief leader of apostasy (2Th_2:9-12; 1Jo_2:18-19; Mat_24:10-12; 2Ti_4:3-4).

·         Flattery is prematurely congratulating yourself as the good guy in the Bible before passing the test and proving that you're not the bad guy (Pro_27:21; 1Co_10:12; Gal_6:3-4; Rev_3:17-18).

·         Flattery congratulates yourself so quickly that you never stop to soberly process the warnings in the Bible against those who fail (Pro_16:18; 1Co_11:31-32; 2Co_13:5; Heb_3:12-13).

·         We need to stop pretending good, and start acknowledging bad, so that we can cry out for salvation from the reality of this problem (1Jo_1:8-9; Psa_51:17; Luk_18:13; Rom_7:24-25).

·         We need to stop pretending good with flattery and start considering bad so that our faith can realize how desperate of a situation we are and cry out to the real God by faith (Rev_3:17-19; Psa_34:18; Jam_4:9-10; Mat_5:3-6).

·         We need to stop flattering others and ourselves, so that we can consider the bad guys, including the evil of our own flesh, so that we will cry out for salvation, including Jesus's name, just like David prophetically did by faith (Psa_51:2-4; Psa_143:2; Rom_7:18; Psa_18:6; Act_2:21).

 

This is why it's so absolutely vitally important to deny yourself, and not seek to save your own soul by knowing that you know that you're saved, and to instead patiently wait and self-affliction and self-abase humility until God exalts you with proof of approval and exaltation and glorifies you with the praise of His acceptance and approval

Eze_13:10 WEB  Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there is no peace; and when one builds up a wall, behold, they daub it with whitewash:

Eze_13:10 LB  Because they have caused My people to err, saying, ‘Peace’; and there is no peace; and one builds a wall, and they plaster it—it shall fall.

Eze_13:10  ἀνθ᾿ ὧν τὸν λαόν μου ἐπλάνησαν λέγοντες Εἰρήνη εἰρήνη, καὶ οὐκ ἦν εἰρήνη, καὶ οὗτος οἰκοδομεῖ τοῖχον, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἀλείφουσιν αὐτόν, εἰ πεσεῖται,

Isa_3:12  λαός μου, οἱ πράκτορες ὑμῶν καλαμῶνται ὑμᾶς, καὶ οἱ ἀπαιτοῦντες κυριεύουσιν ὑμῶν· λαός μου, οἱ μακαρίζοντες ὑμᾶς πλανῶσιν ὑμᾶς καὶ τὸν τρίβον τῶν ποδῶν ὑμῶν ταράσσουσιν.

 

Partiality

 

Respect of Persons To Gain Advantage = Flattering Others

Jud_1:16  These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaks puffed up words, flattering people to gain advantage.

Jud_1:16  Οὗτοί εἰσι γογγυσταί, μεμψίμοιροι, κατὰ τὰς ἐπιθυμίας ἑαυτῶν πορευόμενοι, καὶ τὸ στόμα αὐτῶν λαλεῖ ὑπέρογκα, θαυμάζοντες πρόσωπα ὠφελείας χάριν.

Jud_1:16  ουτοι εισιν γογγυσται μεμψιμοιροι κατα τας επιθυμιας Aεαυτων TSBαυτων πορευομενοι και το στομα αυτων λαλει υπερογκα θαυμαζοντες προσωπα ωφελειας χαριν

Jud_1:16 NKJV These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage.

 

KJV is Quite Strange

Jud_1:16 KJV  These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.

 

 

Partiality in Judgement

Pro_24:23 WEB  These also are sayings of the wise. To show partiality in judgment is not good.

Pro_24:23  LB  And this thing I say to you that are wise, for you to learn: It is not good [οὐ καλόν] to show partiality in judgment [αἰδεῖσθαι πρόσωπον ἐν κρίσει].

Pro_24:23  Ταῦτα δὲ λέγω ὑμῖν τοῖς σοφοῖς ἐπιγινώσκειν· αἰδεῖσθαι πρόσωπον ἐν κρίσει οὐ καλόν·

Pro_24:23 NKJV These things also belong to the wise: It is not good to show partiality in judgment.

 

Jam_2:9  but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

Jam_2:9  εἰ δὲ προσωπολημπτεῖτε, ἁμαρτίαν ἐργάζεσθε, ἐλεγχόμενοι ὑπὸ τοῦ νόμου ὡς παραβάται.

Abraham’s Seed

[11/2/25…11/6/25…11/8/25-11/9/25]

 

See: ISR > Abraham’s Seed

Love-Israel.htm#AbrahamsSeed

 

We see that apostate Jews boasted and flattered themselves with underserved advantages, and congratulated themselves with privileges without paying any price, sacrifice, or cost.

While they flattered themselves as being invincibly saved, they became wretchedly lost.

This self-flattering boasting made them lying false Jews of the synagogues of Satan (Rev_2:9; Rev_3:9) which collaboratively brings dirty religion into the End Times apostasy rebellion (Rev_3:10).

Pro_17:15  WEB  He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the righteous, both of them alike are an abomination to Yahweh.

Denying Justice

Isa_5:23 WEB  who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice for the innocent!

Isa_5:23 LB  who justify the ungodly for rewards, and take away the righteousness of the righteous.

Isa_5:23  οἱ δικαιοῦντες τὸν ἀσεβῆ ἕνεκεν δώρων καὶ τὸ δίκαιον τοῦ δικαίου αἴροντες.

Isa_5:23 NKJV Who justify the wicked for a bribe, and take away justice from the righteous man!

 

It is stinky to justify sin, just as it is to condemn the clean.

Justifying the wicked is a stinky abomination before the Lord

 

So…

 

STOP Equality!

2/1/26

 

Stop flattening Truth!

Stop perverted generalizing and unwinding the Holiness which God has sacrificed his holy ones to accomplish!

 

Equalizing = not know God, Who is Holy

 

It is NOT Justice!

Equality is not Justice

(That's perverted and liberal)

Equality is making holy things dirtier than mud

It's blaspheming the sacred righteous ordinance of the Bible

If the cleanness of the Bible says something in particular, you're not allowed to irreverently flatten and deflate it's preciousness - that makes you a mocker, blasphemer, heckler

(A) The Faithful Have Vanished

Psa_12:1 WEB  Help [“הושׁיעה” ≈ salvation; i.e. you-save!], Yahweh [+ “יהוה” = Jesus -- i.e. Lord-salvation]; for the godly man [kind/merciful] ceases. For the faithful [incl. firm-trusty] fail [disappear?] from among the children of men.

Psa_12:1 LB  A Psalm of David. Save me [Σῶσόν με], O Lord [κύριε]; for the godly man [ὅσιος – i.e. sacred] has failed; for truth is diminished from among the children of men.

Psa_12:1  (11:1) Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ὑπὲρ τῆς ὀγδόης· ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ. (11:2) Σῶσόν με, κύριε, ὅτι ἐκλέλοιπεν ὅσιος, ὅτι ὠλιγώθησαν αἱ ἀλήθειαι ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν τῶν ἀνθρώπων.

Psa_12:1 NKJV Help, LORD, for the godly man ceases! For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.

Psa_12:2 WEB  Everyone lies [i.e. useless/vanity KJV] to his neighbor. They speak with flattering [Strong: smoothness] lips, and with a double heart [“ולב בלב” -- lit. in-hart, &-hart; i.e. duplicated-duplicity; “With a heart and a heart.” Clark; comp. 1Ch_12:33 - quoted below].

Psa_12:2 Everyone has spoken vanity [μάταια] to his neighbor: their lips are deceitful [δόλια], they have spoken with a double heart [ἐν καρδίᾳ καὶ ἐν καρδίᾳ].

Remnant vs. Flattery

·         Psa_12:1 = Remnant Minded Salvation!

·         Flattery = Apostasy Denial -- NOT remnant-minded salvation!

·         Flattery = Saying there are millions or even billions of Christians today

·         Flattery = Saying you’re already saved from the apostasy of your age -- before God has prophetically announced your graduation from probation

·         Flattery ≠ David’s faith in calling out to Jesus for salvation, because it even denies the very reason David begged for help

(Bi) Double-Hearted -- Details

(A) MT Hebrew:

1Ch_12:33 WEB  Of Zebulun, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array, with all manner of instruments of war, fifty thousand, and who could order the battle array, and were not of double heart [ולב׃ לב בלא].

1Ch_12:33 And of Zebulun they that went out to battle, with all weapons of war, were fifty thousand to help David, not weak-handed.

1Ch_12:33  (12:34) καὶ ἀπὸ Ζαβουλων ἐκπορευόμενοι εἰς παράταξιν πολέμου ἐν πᾶσιν σκεύεσιν πολεμικοῖς πεντήκοντα χιλιάδες βοηθῆσαι τῷ Δαυιδ οὐχ ἑτεροκλινῶς.

 

Psa_119:113 WEB  I hate ·double-minded men [סעפים], but I love your law.

Psa_119:113 I have hated transgressors; but I have loved Your law.

Psa_119:113  (118:113) ιεV σαμχ. Παρανόμους ἐμίσησα καὶ τὸν νόμον σου ἠγάπησα.

 

Hos_10:2 WEB  Their heart is divided [“לבם חלק”]. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.

Hos_10:2 They have divided [ἐμέρισαν] their hearts; now shall they be utterly destroyed: he shall dig down their altars, their pillars shall mourn.

Hos_10:2  ἐμέρισαν καρδίας αὐτῶν, νῦν ἀφανισθήσονται· αὐτὸς κατασκάψει τὰ θυσιαστήρια αὐτῶν, ταλαιπωρήσουσιν αἱ στῆλαι αὐτῶν.

 

(B) Greek:

Jas_4:8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify [ἁγνίσατε] your hearts [καρδίας], you double-minded [δίψυχοι – twice/double-soul-ed].

Jas_4:8  ἐγγίσατε τῷ Θεῷ, καὶ ἐγγιεῖ ὑμῖν. καθαρίσατε χεῖρας ἁμαρτωλοί καὶ ἁγνίσατε καρδίας δίψυχοι.

 

The Point: Double-Heart = Inconsistency

 

(Bii) Inconsistency Problem

·         Why is Inconsistency such a Problem? -- it’s not logical, but how does that damage?

·         Heart Issue = Inconsistency Breach

·         2 Things going on at the same time

·         Is this just limited to in-sincerity?

 

Inconsistency = Hypocrisy

Mat_23:3 CAB  Therefore whatever they may say to you to observe, observe and do, but do not do according to their works; for they say, and do not do.

Mat_23:3  πάντα οὖν ὅσα ἐὰν εἴπωσιν ὑμῖν τηρεῖν, τηρεῖτε καὶ ποιεῖτε, κατὰ δὲ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν μὴ ποιεῖτε· λέγουσι γὰρ, καὶ οὐ ποιοῦσι.

Mat_23:3  παντα ουν οσα BAεαν TSαν ειπωσιν υμιν Aποιησατε Aκαι TSBτηρειν τηρειτε TSBκαι TSBποιειτε κατα δε τα εργα αυτων μη ποιειτε λεγουσιν γαρ και ου ποιουσιν

Mat_23:4 For they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they do not desire to move them with their finger.

Mat_23:4  δεσμεύουσι γὰρ φορτία βαρέα καὶ δυσβάστακτα καὶ ἐπιτιθέασιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους τῶν ἀνθρώπων, τῷ δὲ δακτύλῳ αὐτῶν οὐ θέλουσι κινῆσαι αὐτά.

Mat_23:4  δεσμευουσιν Aδε TSBγαρ φορτια βαρεα Aκαι TSBκαι Aδυσβαστακτα TSBδυσβαστακτα και επιτιθεασιν επι τους ωμους των ανθρωπων Aαυτοι TSBτω δε Aτω δακτυλω αυτων ου θελουσιν κινησαι αυτα

Mat_23:5 But all their works they do in order to be seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad and they enlarge the borders of their garments.

Mat_23:5  πάντα δὲ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν ποιοῦσι πρὸς τὸ θεαθῆναι τοῖς ἀνθρώποις. πλατύνουσι γὰρ τὰ φυλακτήρια αὐτῶν καὶ μεγαλύνουσι τὰ κράσπεδα τῶν ἱματίων αὐτῶν,

Mat_23:5  παντα δε τα εργα αυτων ποιουσιν προς το θεαθηναι τοις ανθρωποις πλατυνουσιν Aγαρ TSBδε τα φυλακτηρια αυτων και μεγαλυνουσιν τα κρασπεδα TSBτων TSBιματιων TSBαυτων

 

The Point: Hypocrisy = Inconsistency (Mat_23:3) = Double-Heart -- Including flattery (Psa_12:2)

 

 

(C) Salvation in Psa_12:1-3

 

>>Scrip: context -- harvest

Act_2:30 – David Being A Prophet

Act_2:30 NKJV Therefore, [David] being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, according to the flesh, He would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne.

 

 

David is prophesying Jesus name when calling on the Lord (YHWH) for salvation -- which makes the name Jesus, as in Mat_1:21.

 

---------------

Salvation Side Note…

 

David is Calling on Jesus to Save Him -- Quite Literally!

Mat_8:25 Then the disciples came and awoke Him, saying, "Lord, save us! [Κύριε, σῶσον ἡμᾶς] We are perishing!"

Mat_8:25  καὶ προσελθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἤγειραν αὐτὸν λέγοντες· Κύριε, σῶσον ἡμᾶς, ἀπολλύμεθα.

Mat_8:25  και προσελθοντες TSBοι TSBμαθηται TSαυτου ηγειραν αυτον λεγοντες κυριε σωσον TSBημας απολλυμεθα

 

Mat_14:30 CAB  But seeing the strong wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, "Lord, save me!" [Κύριε, σῶσόν με]

Mat_14:30  βλέπων δὲ τὸν ἄνεμον ἰσχυρὸν ἐφοβήθη, καὶ ἀρξάμενος καταποντίζεσθαι ἔκραξε λέγων· Κύριε, σῶσόν με.

Mat_14:30  βλεπων δε τον ανεμον Aισχυρον TSBισχυρον εφοβηθη και αρξαμενος καταποντιζεσθαι εκραξεν λεγων κυριε σωσον με

Mat_14:31 And immediately, Jesus reaching out His hand, laid hold of him, and said to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?"

Mat_14:31  εὐθέως δὲ ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα ἐπελάβετο αὐτοῦ καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· ὀλιγόπιστε. εἰς τί ἐδίστασας;

√ GNT-V

 

Greek of Mat_8:25 & Mat_14:30 [Κύριε, σῶσον ἡμᾶς / Κύριε, σῶσόν με] ≈ Greek of Psa_12:1 [Σῶσόν με, κύριε]

 

 

The Point: not only is the Hebrew predicting faith into Jesus, but also even the Greek matches the Gospel cries for Jesus’ salvation

The Hebrew & Greek of Psa_12:1 points to Jesus.

---------------

 

So…

What Salvation Do we Need from Jesus in Psa_12:1-3?

 

Notice: (A) Reverent people aren’t there (Psa_12:1 b) (B) sinners deceptively-flatter themselves & each other as good (Psa_12:2-3) -- so (C) David desperately cries out for Divine  help/salvation (Psa_12:1 a)

 

Psalms = Example Prayers -- for Salvation!

Remember: these songs were ordained to be Sung repeatedly by the monotheists for thousands of years -- that’s some pretty profound repetitive meditation on bad guys!

 

The Point: You’re not obeying David’s example and crying out for Biblical salvation if you’re not considering the bad guys!

 

See: Reverent Gospel (Gal_2:2 – unless I had run in vain )

 

(D) Boasting & Flattering

Self-Flattering Boasting is included with Flattering Others

Self-Flattery (“the tongue that boasts” - Psa_12:3) is often included with flattering others (Psa_12:2-3)…

(Self-Flattery is even more delusional and deceptive than flattering others, in some sense.)

 

Useless vs. Valuable

·         Vanity is translated represented and understood as lying because it is useless and doesn't do anything

·         Compare and contrast the uselessness of lying flatteries with actually hearing and speaking what God is saying

 

Stopping Sin = Inspired Council

If they had stood in my counsel they would have turned my people from their sins

 

Jer_23:22 WEB  But if they had stood in my council, then had they caused my people to hear my words, and had turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

Jer_23:22 LB  But if they had stood in My counsel, and if they had hearkened to My words, then would they have turned My people from their evil practices.

Jer_23:22  καὶ εἰ ἔστησαν ἐν τῇ ὑποστάσει μου καὶ εἰσήκουσαν τῶν λόγων μου, καὶ τὸν λαόν μου ἂν ἀπέστρεφον αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῶν πονηρῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων αὐτῶν.

Jer_23:22 NKJV But if they had stood in My counsel, and had caused My people to hear My words, then they would have turned them from their evil way and from the evil of their doings.

 

Flattering Curse

·         ‘Flattering’ & ‘Boasting Lips’ are Biblically Cursed

·         “May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips” (Psa_12:3)

·         Don’t ‘rebuke the devil’ for your curse, which he cannot remove, when you actually need to repent to God!

Psa_69:22 Curse Quoted in the NC, in Rom_11:9:

 

Rom_11:8 CAB  Just as it is written: "God has given them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day."

Rom_11:8  καθὼς γέγραπται· ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς πνεῦμα κατανύξεως, ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν καὶ ὦτα τοῦ μὴ ἀκούειν, ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.

Rom_11:8  καθως γεγραπται εδωκεν αυτοις ο θεος πνευμα κατανυξεως οφθαλμους του μη βλεπειν και ωτα του μη ακουειν εως της σημερον ημερας

Rom_11:9 And David says: "Let their table become [γενηθήτω  V-AOM-3S] a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a recompense to them.

Rom_11:9  καὶ Δαυῒδ λέγει· γενηθήτω V-AOM-3S ἡ τράπεζα αὐτῶν εἰς παγίδα καὶ εἰς θήραν καὶ εἰς σκάνδαλον καὶ εἰς ἀνταπόδομα αὐτοῖς·

Flattering Glory from WHO?

 

Joh_5:43 CAB  I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

Joh_5:43  ἐγὼ ἐλήλυθα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ πατρός μου, καὶ οὐ λαμβάνετέ με· ἐὰν ἄλλος ἔλθῃ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἰδίῳ, ἐκεῖνον λήψεσθε.

Joh_5:44  How can you believe [πῶς δύνασθε ὑμεῖς πιστεῦσαι], who receive [λαμβάνοντες V-PAP-NPM] glory [δόξαν – i.e. including reputation] from one another, and do not seek the glory which is from the only God?

Joh_5:44  πῶς δύνασθε ὑμεῖς πιστεῦσαι, δόξαν παρὰ ἀλλήλων λαμβάνοντες, καὶ τὴν δόξαν τὴν παρὰ τοῦ μόνου Θεοῦ οὐ ζητεῖτε;

√ GNT-V

Joh_5:44 NKJV How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes from the only God?

 

Side Note: Here is a Biblical “only God” [μόνου Θεοῦ] statement

Church says: “Hi brother! …Welcome to the house of the lord!” -- this is flattering glory assumed from man; it is NOT exaltation revealed from God!

 

Flattering = UNBELIEF! -- so You Got to CHOOSE!

 

(F) “OR” = Decisions!

The Decisions of “OR”

·         OR: Joh_5:44 = “OR”-Decision

·         Decision: Notice the “OR” -- the decision you have to make (in Joh_5:44)!

·         Vs: It is OR, because it is Good vs. Bad

·         Flattery vs. Faith: Flattery (“receive honor from one another”) CANNOT simultaneously have faith into Jesus (“How can you believe” = How can you do powerful-ability [δύνασθε] to do faith).

·         Unbelief: Flattering and self-flattering = UNBELIEF against the Biblical Jesus! (as we’ve just seen in Joh_5:44 -- quoted above)

·         Flattery skips over & does not apply Biblical warnings to yourself and those flattered -- this is lost-minded unbelief! (Eph_5:18, etc.)

Stop Assuming Good!

Stop Imagining You’re Good

·         The bad guys in the Bible are not there just so that we can thank God we're not like them! -- that defeats the whole purpose of the Tax Collector & Pharisee parable (in Luk_18:9-14)!

·         Stop presumptively thinking You’re the Good Guy!

·         Stop naively thanking God that you're not a bad guy!

·         Start praying and even repenting more fervently and zealously so that you might find escape from being the bad guy in God’s story right NOW.

 

Premature Rejoicing-Boasting

·         Premature Arrival Syndrome: Immaturity embraces, systematizes, & perpetuates Flattery -- and this foolishness is actually systematized in most of churchianity

·         Don’t congratulate before you graduate.

·         Don’t congratulate yourself before you graduate spiritual probation.

·         Don’t imagine yourself as the good guy before you’ve been corrected (& corrected yourself) from the failures of bad guys -- remember: the judgements of bad guys are our examples!

1Pe_4:11

 

Comp. Gen 6 – 7: I have found you righteous!

 

Context: God was about to wipe us all out…

Gen_6:8 WEB  But Noah found favor in Yahweh's eyes.

Gen_6:8 But Noah found grace [χάριν] before the Lord God.

Gen_6:8  Νωε δὲ εὗρεν χάριν ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ.

 

Gen_7:1 WEB  Yahweh said to Noah, "Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.

Gen_7:1 CAB  The Great Flood And the Lord God said to Noah, “Enter into the ark, you and all your family, for I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation.

Gen_7:1  Καὶ εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Νωε Εἴσελθε σὺ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκός σου εἰς τὴν κιβωτόν, ὅτι σὲ εἶδον δίκαιον ἐναντίον μου ἐν τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ.

 

From there on out…

The whole Bible is about PROOF of righteousness: “I have seen your righteousness”.

That’s God being scientific with His -infinitely more than- “5 senses”.

 

Note: We should start with the Bible, and then also pray for more revelation of God’s approval.

We’re NOT allowed to be self-willed, self-directed, self-commending, self-flattering experientialists!

God’s approval is through Bible-obedient ears from outside of our flesh, not through felt emotional subjective personal experiences.

See: Reverent Gospel

 

2Co_10:17 CAB  But "he who boasts, let him boast in the LORD."

2Co_10:17  ῾Ο δὲ καυχώμενος ἐν Κυρίῳ καυχάσθω·

2Co_10:18  For not he who commends [Aσυνιστανων TSBσυνιστων] himself is approved [δόκιμος], but he whom the Lord commends [συνίστησιν].

2Co_10:18  οὐ γὰρ ὁ ἑαυτὸν συνιστῶν, ἐκεῖνός ἐστι δόκιμος, ἀλλ᾿ ὃν ὁ Κύριος συνίστησιν

2Co_10:18  ου γαρ ο εαυτον Aσυνιστανων TSBσυνιστων εκεινος εστιν δοκιμος Aαλλα TSBαλλ ον ο κυριος συνιστησιν

2Co_10:18 NKJV For not he who commends himself is approved, but whom the Lord commends.

 

“approved” [δόκιμος] = Scientific “test” (just like Romans 1, 1Co_9, 2Co_13, etc.)

 

Remember:

·         Don’t Fragment 2Co_10:17!

·         Embrace and finally fully obey 2Co_10:18!

·         In 2Co_10 You can’t logically claim to “boast in the LORD” (2Co_10:17) when you are not habitually waiting for His approval in everything you do and say (2Co_10:18)!

Flattery vs. Bad Guy Warnings

12/11/25-12/12/25

When you self-flatter you ignore sin, skip over bad guy warnings (that match your sin), and forfeit the reasonable response of urgency and desperation to change and never obtain the begging that saves

 

The Need is Real

 

See Your Need

When we really see how bad our flesh is, it awakens our conscience to see how deeply we need help so that we might also see how potent and necessary the Good Message is...

 

Study Counterfeits Too!

The cheesy saying is not morally True:

"You just need to spend time studying the real dollar bill to recognize counterfeits"

We need to consider the bad guys to know what it means to even become a good guy.

 

Seeing Failure, Helps Salvation

 

The Point: We need to consider the bad guys, and diligently apply their warning to ourselves, so we can be the good guys.

 

We need to think about the bad guys in the Bible so that we will be the winners who are saved by the Good Message.

Does this apply to you, and move you to fear God more, or do you skip over it because it (apparently) doesn’t apply to you, because it doesn’t apply “good guys like you”?

Watch & Be Sober

 

Sentimental or Sober?

·         Would you rather be sentimental or sober?

·         Would you like to sing the sweet sonnets of the harlot to reinforce lazy thinking by lulling you into complacency to stay where you're already at, or would you rather sing the broken heart of David that writes inspired Scriptural repentance in Psalm 51?

 

>>Scrip: ES

Mat_26:41 NKJV  Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

1Th_5:6 NKJV  Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.

Escaping Temptation

Lord's Prayer Reminder Side Note:

 

Gospel = Fighting Evil to Escaping Temptation -- in Lord’s Prayer

 

'Don’t go all the way into temptation' * -- this plea is NOT "passive spirituality" (that is, Protestantism), but this deliverance request takes us all the way into the garden to ‘sweat it out’ with Jesus to discover the whole purpose of the Good Message.

 

Defeat Evil = Good Message

Considering, confronting, and defeating evil so that you don't fall into it is precisely what the Good Message is found it on.

 

Details:

Mat_6:9-13/Luk_11:1-4 – Lord’s Prayer

[L11 = √ temptation; ? ·deliver from evil TSB]

Mat_26:36/Mar_14:32/Luk_22:39 – Garden: Watching in Prayer

 

In the Garden of Gethsemane the deep context is Watching in Prayer, where the sacrifice of the Good Message officially begins, which also uses the exact same language of 'in going into not entering into temptation' as the Lord’s Prayer (Mat_6:13; Luk_11:4)

 

* Avoid Temptation

 

>>Scrip: ES

Mat_6:13 NKJV And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

>>TSK

 

Luk_11:4 CAB  And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."

Luk_11:4  καὶ ἄφες ἡμῖν τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν· καὶ γὰρ αὐτοὶ ἀφίεμεν παντὶ ὀφείλοντι ἡμῖν· καὶ μὴ εἰσενέγκῃς ἡμᾶς εἰς πειρασμόν, ἀλλὰ ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ τοῦ πονηροῦ.

Luk_11:4  και αφες ημιν τας αμαρτιας ημων και γαρ αυτοι Aαφιομεν TSBαφιεμεν παντι οφειλοντι ημιν και μη εισενεγκης ημας εις πειρασμον TSBαλλα TSBρυσαι TSBημας TSBαπο TSBτου TSBπονηρου

 

 

2Pe_2:9 then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and how to keep the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment,

2Pe_2:9  οἶδε Κύριος εὐσεβεῖς ἐκ πειρασμοῦ ῥύεσθαι, ἀδίκους δὲ εἰς ἡμέραν κρίσεως κολαζομένους τηρεῖν,

2Pe_2:10 and especially those who walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are bold, self-willed, illustrious persons, they do not tremble at blaspheming,

2Pe_2:10  μάλιστα δὲ τοὺς ὀπίσω σαρκὸς ἐν ἐπιθυμίᾳ μιασμοῦ πορευομένους καὶ κυριότητος καταφρονοῦντας. τολμηταί αὐθάδεις, δόξας οὐ τρέμουσι βλασφημοῦντες,

1Co_10:13 NKJV No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

Follow Jesus’ Sinlessness

·         Jesus was Sinless: Jesus victoriously avoided all sin in the garden so that He could be the perfect solution to save all humanity from their sinning.

·         Follow His Priesthood: Jesus calls us to follow Him into inspired Sinless perfection to participate as agents and sub-priests in His redemptive priesthood for all humanity to be saved.

·         How About You?: Are you participating when you are sinning? (this is when the Bible really does say: one OR the other! -- See: AND, Not OR)

 

 

The Point: Considering & defeating evil shows us what the foundation of the Good Message is about: getting redeemed & escaping from all temptation & sinning!

Prostitute Destroyed - Righteous Rejoice

Rejoicing Over the Destroyed Prostitute

Rejoice over her oh heavens and all you holy ones

 

>>Scrip: ES

Rev_18:9 NKJV “The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her...”

 

 

Rev_18:20 NKJV Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!

 

 

Rev_19:1-2 NKJV After these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God! For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.”

Rev_19:3 NKJV Again they said, “Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!”

 

This shows you are participating in the evil of sin if you are mourning when evil is finally punished

(Family relationships can be an exception where you're required to mourn, however even that morning obligation is limited in Leviticus 10 for extreme sinfulness.)

 

Similarly, do you look forward to the judgment and God's destruction of his unrepentant enemies, or do you moan with uncomfortableness?

 

The Point: Rejoicing over enemy destruction ultimately accomplishes salvation for God’s broken winners in the end.

 

This goes immediately into Jesus’ Return…

 

Jesus’ Return

Rev_20:14 NKJV Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

CAB: Warning Concerning Antichrists

1Jn_2:18 Little children, it is the last hour; and just as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour.

1Jn_2:18  Παιδία, ἐσχάτη ὥρα ἐστί, καὶ καθὼς ἠκούσατε ὅτι ἀντίχριστος ἔρχεται, καὶ νῦν ἀντίχριστοι πολλοὶ γεγόνασιν· ὅθεν γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐσχάτη ὥρα ἐστίν.

1Jn_2:18  παιδια εσχατη ωρα εστιν και καθως ηκουσατε οτι TSBο αντιχριστος ερχεται και νυν αντιχριστοι πολλοι γεγονασιν οθεν γινωσκομεν οτι εσχατη ωρα εστιν

1Jn_2:19  They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out in order that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

1Jn_2:19  ἐξ ἡμῶν ἐξῆλθον, ἀλλ᾿ οὐκ ἦσαν ἐξ ἡμῶν· εἰ γὰρ ἦσαν ἐξ ἡμῶν, μεμενήκεισαν ἂν μεθ᾿ ἡμῶν· ἀλλ᾿ ἵνα φανερωθῶσιν ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶ πάντες ἐξ ἡμῶν.

1Jn_2:19  εξ ημων Aεξηλθαν TSBεξηλθον αλλ ουκ ησαν εξ ημων ει γαρ TSBησαν εξ ημων Aησαν μεμενηκεισαν αν μεθ ημων αλλ ινα φανερωθωσιν οτι ουκ εισιν παντες εξ ημων

1Jn_3:8  He who practices sin is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this reason the Son of God appeared, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

1Jn_3:8  ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐκ τοῦ διαβόλου ἐστίν, ὅτι ἀπ᾿ ἀρχῆς ὁ διάβολος ἁμαρτάνει. εἰς τοῦτο ἐφανερώθη ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἵνα λύσῃ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ διαβόλου.

1Jn_3:8  ο ποιων την αμαρτιαν εκ του διαβολου εστιν οτι απ αρχης ο διαβολος αμαρτανει εις τουτο εφανερωθη ο υιος του θεου ινα λυση τα εργα του διαβολου

1Jn_3:9 No one who has been born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

1Jn_3:9  Πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἁμαρτίαν οὐ ποιεῖ, ὅτι σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει· καὶ οὐ δύναται ἁμαρτάνειν, ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ γεγέννηται.

1Jn_3:9  πας ο γεγεννημενος εκ του θεου αμαρτιαν ου ποιει οτι σπερμα αυτου εν αυτω μενει και ου δυναται αμαρτανειν οτι εκ του θεου γεγεννηται

1Jn_3:10 By this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Everyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

1Jn_3:10  ἐν τούτῳ φανερά ἐστι τὰ τέκνα τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ τὰ τέκνα τοῦ διαβόλου· πᾶς ὁ μὴ ποιῶν δικαιοσύνην οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ.

Rom_2:5-6 NKJV But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who “will render to each one according to his deeds”:

Rom_3:5-6 NKJV But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust who inflicts wrath? I speak in human terms. Certainly not! For then how will God judge the world?

2Th_1:6-8 NKJV since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Rev_16:5-7 NKJV Then I heard the angel of the waters saying: “You are righteous, O Lord, the One who is and who was and who is to be, because You have judged these things. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. They are worthy.” And I heard another from the altar saying, “Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments.”

 

>>Scrip: ES

Psa_9:7-8 NKJV But the Lord shall endure forever; He has prepared His throne for judgment. And He shall judge the world in righteousness; He shall administer judgment for the peoples in uprightness.

 

God Known Judging Sinners

Psa_9:13 WEB  Have mercy on me, Yahweh. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death;

Psa_9:13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; look upon my affliction which I suffer from my enemies, You that lift me up from the gates of death:

Psa_9:13  (9:14) ἐλέησόν με, κύριε, ἰδὲ τὴν ταπείνωσίν μου ἐκ τῶν ἐχθρῶν μου, ὁ ὑψῶν με ἐκ τῶν πυλῶν τοῦ θανάτου,

Psa_9:14 WEB  that I may show forth all your praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion, I will rejoice in your salvation.

Psa_9:14 that I may declare all Your praises in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in Your salvation.

Psa_9:14  (9:15) ὅπως ἂν ἐξαγγείλω πάσας τὰς αἰνέσεις σου ἐν ταῖς πύλαις τῆς θυγατρὸς Σιων· ἀγαλλιάσομαι ἐπὶ τῷ σωτηρίῳ σου.

Psa_9:15 WEB  The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.

Psa_9:15 The heathen are caught in the destruction which they planned: in the very snare which they hid is their foot taken.

Psa_9:15  (9:16) ἐνεπάγησαν ἔθνη ἐν διαφθορᾷ, ᾗ ἐποίησαν, ἐν παγίδι ταύτῃ, ᾗ ἔκρυψαν, συνελήμφθη ὁ ποὺς αὐτῶν·

Psa_9:16 WEB  Yahweh has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah.

Psa_9:16 CAB  The Lord is known as executing judgments: the sinner is taken in the works of his hands. Selah.

Psa_9:16  (9:17) γινώσκεται κύριος κρίματα ποιῶν, ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ συνελήμφθη ὁ ἁμαρτωλός. ᾠδὴ διαψάλματος.

Psa_9:16 NKJV  The LORD is known by the judgment He executes; the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands.

Psa_9:17 WEB  The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God.

Psa_9:17 Let sinners be driven away into Hades, even all the nations that forget God.

Psa_9:17  (9:18) ἀποστραφήτωσαν οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ εἰς τὸν ᾅδην, πάντα τὰ ἔθνη τὰ ἐπιλανθανόμενα τοῦ θεοῦ·

Psa_9:18 WEB  For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.

Psa_9:18 For the poor [πτωχός] shall not be forgotten forever; the patience [ὑπομονὴ] of the needy ones [πενήτων] shall not perish forever.

Psa_9:18  (9:19) ὅτι οὐκ εἰς τέλος ἐπιλησθήσεται ὁ πτωχός, ἡ ὑπομονὴ τῶν πενήτων οὐκ ἀπολεῖται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

 

Why is God being made known right in the middle of all of these cries for help and judgment on enemies?

This is a three-way parallelism

Notice: Good Guys = Beggars (Psa_9:18)

 

Summary

Psa_9:13 – Plea: LORD, see affliction, [save] from opposers & gates of death.
Psa_9:14 – Salvation to declare praise in Zion’s gates.
Psa_9:15 – Nations sunk in own pit.
Psa_9:16 – LORD known by judgment; wicked snared in own work.
Psa_9:17 – Wicked to Sheol, all nations forgetting God.
Psa_9:18 – Needy not forgotten; poor hope not perish.

 

Chiasm -- Semetrical Pattern

(A) Psa_9:13 – (i) Have mercy on me…my affliction… (ii) salvation celebrated (Psa_9:14)

(B) Psa_9:15 – Nations Judged

(C) Psa_9:16 a – Lord known Doing Judgements

(B’) Psa_9:16-17 – sinner taken/snared to hell… God-forgetting nations (Psa_9:17)

(A’) Psa_9:18 – (i) Poor-beggars (ii) eventually rewarded

 

The Point: When (A) afflicted-beggars are saved & rewarded by (B) their enemy sinners being judged all the way to hell (C) God is made known

Stop Trivializing Sin!

[9/13/25-9/14/25…9/17/25]

 

Don’t Trivialize what kills you & others!

 

>>Scrip:

Little leaven

1Co_15: in Adam all die

Job_42: I abhor myself

 

Trivializing Doesn’t BEG!

Why aren't you begging?

Trivializing sin stops begging

Trivializing = Already Full

Trivializing your sin is the dreadful basis of being already full and not being desperate to change...

 

Criminals Aren’t Tired of Sinning

 

this is the profound problem:

You are not tired of sin when you are the one sinning against others, but you are tired of sin when you're the truly poor victim who is being sinned against!

 

It is the theology of unrepentant criminals to accept sin as normal in church people's lives

 

>>Scrip:

..

Cannot cease from sin

 

Beg to KNOW!

Begging is proof of Truth obsession and hating sin.

 

You should be desperately begging Bible obeys to help you get free from sin -- embracing the real gospel

 

You should zealously seek out help to perceive, understand, and fully acknowledge the desolation of your flesh

 

Romans 6 - Romans 8

This tells you what the flesh is

 

Perfection is Inspired

Matthew_5:48 - be perfect just as your father in the heavens is perfect

 

This commanded perfection makes those sinning against others uncomfortable, but it is encouraging life to those who are being sinned against.

 

Can a sinful human be perfect unless God inspires him?

(We typically get inspiration and prophecy all goofed up...)

 

Trivializing sin and congratulating your religion is treating your uninspired imperfection and tolerance of sin as if it's inspired - which is the root of cultish mindless thinking that everyone is essentially guilty of

 

SEARCH

Help me find as many Bible verses as possible that might help illustrate that people who trivialize and make light of sin are doing so because they're the criminals doing it against others whereas those who are true victims of the sins of strong people are tired and grown under the oppression of their sin

Seriousness of Sin

9/13/25-9/14/25…9/17/25

Take sin more seriously!

 

[Begging review]

 

-- Under Construction --

 

STOP Contentment with Sin

9/14/25; 9/17/25

Depravity Without Begging?

 

 

The fact that we admit universal human sinfulness, and yet we're not begging, proves that we're failing to apply depravity to ourselves personally

 

If the flash really is that evil, how could we stand to live with ourselves without asking others for help?

 

If you say you know that your flesh is sinful, why are you comfortable with that?

 

If you say you haven't arrived at Perfection yet how could you dare fail to beg others to help you get there?

 

If Perfection is not your goal, you're not heading toward (& on your way to) heaven (heaven is perfect!)

 

>>Scrip:

He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified

 

See: sin more seriously

 

Failure to continually apply humanities problem to yourself (right here right now) is trivializing sin.

 

The flesh is always avoiding the Justice right in front of its face

 

Sin, Luxury, Apostasy - we've got two more soberly consider how these are affecting us and we're not immune to the temptation and influence of corruption that surrounds us in our culture

 

To the degree we are negligent we are deceived

 

Subconscious failure is way too Common

 

 

 

Repentance Cares About Sin

 

Do You Care?

·         When is the last time you sinned? Did you even notice?

·         Do you even remember?

·         When is the last time you repented fervently?

 

>>Scrip:

Peter went out and cried bitterly

Psalm 51

 

Are You Tired of Sinning?

Are you in danger of trivializing sin?

"Oh, it's just a little apple" -- and then you've killed the entire human race...

 

Hate Evil

>>Scrip:

Hate what is evil cling to what is good

>>TSK

 

Pro_8:13 The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate."

 

Moral Maturity Hates Evil

There's a real maturity worth pursuing:

More holiness, more zeal, more hatred of sin

 

The Flesh likes to boast in fleshly maturity, which is worldly fleshly wisdom, which is condemned by the Bible. But morality is the boast of every verse in the Bible.

 

So, trivializing sin stops you from hating sin fervently.

 

Losing Truth When Tolerating Sin

Consider what's at stake of being lost...

 

Making light of sin means...

·         You'll be far away from God's holiness,

·         When you pray He will hide his face from you (Isa_1:, etc.)

·         You won't hate sin,

·         You won't beg others to help you get out of it,

·         You won't confess your sin enough to forsake them,

·         You won't repent enough to stop doing it,

·         You will be "living in sin" "and continuing to sin" which makes you a child of the devil and a slave of sin, and

·         You won't be saved from sin (Matthew_1:21) like the beginning of the Gospel says

 

You will be doing unrighteousness against others, which means that you don't inherit the Kingdom of Heaven (1 Corinthians 6)

 

>>Scrip:

Unrighteous don't inherit the Kingdom of Heaven

 

You won't have real love because

>>Scrip:

love does not sin or do unrighteousness against its neighbor

 

ACT Against Sin!

9/16/25-9/17/25

 

-- Under Construction --

 

Consistency Needed Against Sin

 

If you know humanity is sinful, why are you lazy against your own flesh?

If you believe sin kills, why aren't you running away from it with all your might?

 

If sin tries to trick even the smartest people, why are you using such low standards to resist its deception?

If we all know that apostasy exists, why aren't you making sure you're not deceived?

If people don't know when they're deceived, why aren't you seeking out accountability to make sure you're not?

If the world is deceived in the end times, why are you using conventional methods to avoid its deception?

 

Stop Independence!

If you know you need help, why aren't you begging those who are inspired with obedience?

 

If you know you’re sick, why aren’t you seeking a doctor?

If sin is killing you, why live at peace with it?

If the house is on fire, why stay inside?

If you say God is holy, why are you ok with unholiness?

If you say you’re sinful & guilty, why no tears of grief?

If you admit the world is evil, why follow its ways?

If you say “grace” saves, why make excuses to keep sinning?

If the Bible calls sin bondage, why do you wear its chains gladly?

If you believe Christ died for sin, why keep it?

If you know you’re sick, why refuse the cure?

If you know you’re poor in spirit, why boast?

If you know you must die, why live like you won’t?

If you say the gospel is urgent, why delay obedience?

If you know the Judge is at the door, why sleep?

If you admit the flesh is weak, why feed it?

If you claim to love God, why ignore His voice?

If you believe eternity is near, why live for today only?

 

 

Sinners Go to Hell

 

“Sinner Go to Heaven” -- According to Wicked Church People

Hypocrites Preaching Heresy

“Heaven’s going to be filled with sinners, and hell will have plenty of Christians””

Illogical Beliefs Of Church People About Sin

2/4/24

·         The Bible is true, and I believe it, so I'm going to heaven...even if i don't obey all of it

·         The Bible is true, and it says that you can't continue in sin and go to heaven, but I can go to heaven anyway because of Grace

·         Disobeying the commands of the Bible is sinful, and even though the Bible commands head coverings, I don't have to obey it because that was their culture

·         The Bible says only poor people can go to heaven, but I can go to heaven being rich because... of my heart... i give my tithe...

·         Bible says you need baptism discipleship from Bible obeyers to inherit heaven, but I can go to heaven all on my own / by myself / with modern Christianity anyway because I said a prayer in my personal prayer closet and have a personal relationship with JC

 

 

 

A Few Verses about Sinners

Isa_3:11 CAB Woe to the transgressor! Evils shall happen to him according to the works of his hands.

 

Psa_1:1-6 CAB Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men.  2  But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in His law will he meditate day and night.  3  And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatsoever he shall do shall prosper.  4  Not so for the ungodly — not so; but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.  5  Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in the judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.  6  For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

 

Psa_3:7 CAB  ...You have broken the teeth of sinners.

 

Psa_9:17 CAB Let sinners be driven away into Hades [Hell], even all the nations that forget God.

 

Psa_11:5-7 CAB The Lord tests the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates his own soul.  6  He shall rain upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast shall be the portion of their cup.  7  For the Lord is righteous, and loves righteousness; His face beholds uprightness.

 

Psa_28:3-5 CAB Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors, but evil are in their hearts.  4  Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their endeavors; give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense unto them.  5  Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of His hands, You shall pull them down, and shall not build them up.

 

Psa_34:21 CAB The death of sinners is evil; and they that hate righteousness will go wrong.

 

Psa_37:1-40 CAB A Psalm of David.  Do not fret because of evildoers, neither be envious of them that do iniquity.  2  For they shall soon be withered as the grass, and shall soon fall away as the green herbs.  3  Hope in the Lord, and do good... 6  And He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noonday.  7  Submit yourself to the Lord, and make supplication to Him; do not fret because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds.  8  Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; do not fret, so as not to do evil.  9  For evildoers shall be destroyed; but they that wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the land.  10  And yet a little while, and the sinner shall not be... 12  The sinner will watch for the righteous, and gnash his teeth upon him.  13  But the Lord shall laugh at him; for He foresees that his day will come.  14  Sinners have drawn their swords; they have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay the upright in heart.  15  Let their sword enter into their own heart, and their bows be broken.  16  A little is better to the righteous than the abundant wealth of sinners.  17  For the arms of sinners shall be broken; but the Lord supports the righteous.  18  The Lord knows the ways of the upright; and their inheritance shall be forever...  20  For the sinners shall perish; and the enemies of the Lord at the moment of their being honored and exalted have utterly vanished like smoke.  21  The sinner borrows, and will not pay again; but the righteous has compassion, and gives... 23  The steps of a man are rightly ordered by the Lord...  28  For the Lord loves judgment, and will not forsake His saints; they shall be preserved forever; the blameless shall be avenged, but the seed of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed... 32  The sinner watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.  33  But the Lord will not leave him in his hands, nor by any means condemn him when he is judged.  34  Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are destroyed, you shall see it.  35  I saw the ungodly very highly exalting himself, and lifting himself up like the cedars of Lebanon.  36  Yet I passed by, and lo! He was not; and I sought him, but his place was not found...  38  But the transgressors shall be utterly destroyed together; the remnants of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.  39  But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord; and He is their defender in the time of affliction.  40  And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them; and He shall rescue them from sinners, and save them, because they have hoped in Him.

 

Psa_68:2-3 CAB As smoke vanishes, let them vanish: as wax melts before the fire, so let the sinners perish from before God.  3  But let the righteous rejoice...

 

Psa_75:10 CAB And I will break all the horns of sinners; but the horns of the righteous one shall be exalted.

(Also see Psa_75:4-8)

 

Psa_92:7 CAB When the sinners spring up as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity have watched; it is that they may be utterly destroyed forever.

 

Psa_101:6-8 CAB My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.  7  He that is proud dwelled not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.  8  Early did I slay all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.

 

Psa_104:35 CAB Let the sinners fail from off the earth, and transgressors, so that they shall be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul.

 

Psa_106:17-18 CAB The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and closed upon the congregation of Abiram.  18  And a fire was kindled in their congregation, and a flame burned up the sinners.

 

Psa_119:110 CAB Sinners spread a snare for me; but I erred not from Your commandments.

 

Psa_119:119 CAB I have reckoned all the sinners of the earth as transgressors; therefore have I loved Your testimonies.

 

Psa_119:155 CAB Salvation is far from sinners; for they have not searched out Your statutes.

 

Psa_129:3-8 CAB The sinners wrought upon my back: they prolonged their iniquity.  4  The righteous Lord has cut in pieces the necks of sinners.  5  Let all that hate Zion be put to shame and turned back.  6  Let them be as the grass of the housetops, which withers before it is plucked up.  7  Wherewith the reaper fills not his hand, nor he that makes up the sheaves, his bosom.  8  Neither do they that go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you; we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.

 

Psa_141:10 CAB Sinners shall fall by their own net: I am alone until I shall escape.

 

Psa_145:18-20 CAB The Lord is near to all that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth.  19  He will perform the desire of them that fear Him: and He will hear their supplication, and save them.  20  The Lord preserves all that love Him: but all sinners He will utterly destroy.

 

Psa_146:9 CAB He will relieve the orphan and widow: but will utterly remove the way of sinners.

 

Psa_147:6 CAB The Lord lifts up the meek; but brings sinners down to the ground.

20  He also brought me out into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

20  And He brought me into a wide place, and rescued me, because He delighted in me.

21  Yahweh rewarded me according to my righteousness. He rewarded me according to the cleanness of my hands.

21  And the Lord recompensed me according to my righteousness; even according to the purity of my hands did He recompense me.

22  For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

22  Because, I kept the ways of the Lord, and did not wickedly depart from my God.

23  For all his ordinances were before me. As for his statutes, I did not depart from them.

23  For all His judgments and His ordinances were before me: I departed not from them.

24  I was also perfect toward him. I kept myself from my iniquity.

24  And I shall be blameless before Him, and will keep myself from my iniquity.

25  Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.

25  And the Lord will recompense me according to my righteousness, and according to the purity of my hands in His sight.

26  With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man you will show yourself perfect.

26  With the holy You will be holy, and with the blameless man You will be blameless,

27  With the pure you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

27  and with the excellent You will be excellent, and with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.

28  You will save the afflicted people, But your eyes are on the haughty, that you may bring them down.

28  And You will save the poor people, and will bring down the eyes of the haughty.

 

33  God is my strong fortress. He makes my way perfect.

33  It is the Mighty One who strengthens me with might, and has prepared my way without fault.

34  He makes his feet like hinds' feet, and sets me on my high places.

34  He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me upon the high places.

35  He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of brass.

35  He teaches my hands to war, and has broken the bronze bow by my arm.

36  You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your gentleness has made me great.

36  And You have given me the shield of my salvation, and Your propitious dealing has increased me,

37  You have enlarged my steps under me. My feet have not slipped.

37  so as to make room under me for my going, and my legs did not totter.

38  I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them. I didn't turn again until they were consumed.

38  I will pursue my enemies, and will utterly destroy them; and I will not turn again till I have consumed them.

 

50  Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations. Will sing praises to your name.

50  Therefore will I confess to You, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and sing to Your name.

51  He gives great deliverance to his king, and shows loving kindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed, forevermore.

 

51  He magnifies the salvation of His king, and works mercy for His anointed, even for David and for his seed forever.

 

Isa_1:28, Isa_1:31 CAB And the transgressors and the sinners shall be crushed together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be utterly consumed... 31  And their strength shall be as a thread of tow, and their works as sparks, and the transgressors and the sinners shall be burned up together, and there shall be none to quench them.

 

Isa_14:5 CAB The Lord has broken the yoke of sinners, and the yoke of princes.

 

Isa_33:14-16 CAB The sinners in Zion have departed; trembling shall seize the ungodly. Who will tell you that a fire is kindled? Who will tell you of the eternal place?  15  He that walks in righteousness, speaking rightly, hating transgression and iniquity, and shaking his hands from gifts, stopping his ears that he should not hear the judgment of blood, shutting his eyes that he should not see injustice.  16  He shall dwell in a high cave of a strong rock; bread shall be given to him, and his water shall be sure.

 

Amo_9:8 CAB Behold, the eyes of the Lord God are upon the kingdom of sinners, and I will cut it off from the face of the earth…

 

Amo_9:10 CAB All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, who say, Calamities shall certainly not draw near, nor come upon us.

 

Luk_13:1-5 CAB And some people were present at that very time, reporting to Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.  2  And Jesus answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things?  3  Not at all, I tell you; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.  4  Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that these were offenders more than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem?  5  Not at all, I tell you; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish."

 

Joh_9:31 CAB Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He hears him.

 

Gal_2:17-18 CAB But if by seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, then is Christ a minister of sin? Certainly not!  18  For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

 

>> I quoted this previously… do I need to quote it here?

1Ti_1:8-11 KJB  But we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully; 9  Knowing this: that the law is not laid down for a righteous person but for the lawless and unsubmitted*, G506 for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers* G3964 and murderers of mothers* G3389; for murderers of men;** 10  For fornicators, homosexuals,G733 for slave traders,G405 for liars, for oath breakers, and if there is anything else that is contrary to sound doctrine; 11  According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

 

* "unsubmitted...fathers...mothers..." see:

 Exo_21:15; Lev_20:9; Deu_27:16; Pro_20:20; Pro_28:24, Pro_30:11, Pro_30:17

** Being considered "murderers," before God is not limited to a physical act:

Mat_5:21-22; 1Jn_3:15

 

Heb_7:22, Heb_7:26 CAB ...Jesus...  26  ...is holy, innocent, undefiled, having been separated from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;

 

Jas_4:8-10 CAB Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.  9  Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter change into mourning and your joy into dejection.  10  Be humbled before the Lord, and He will exalt you.

 

Jud_1:14-15 CAB Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men, saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints,  15  to execute judgment against all, and to convict all the ungodly among them about all their ungodly deeds which they have committed impiously, and about all the harsh words which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

 

As said before:

Rev_21:8; KJV  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…

 

Rev_21:27 KJV  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.

 

Rev_22:14-15 KJ2000  Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.  15  For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and fornicators, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loves and makes a lie.

 

So…

Heb_12:14 KJV  Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

You Can’t Continue To Sin and Go To Heaven

If you continue to sin, then you have no True repentance or salvation.

 

i.      Jesus Says

Luk_6:43 For a good tree does not produce bad fruit, nor does a bad tree produce good fruit.

Mat_3:10 And now also the ax is laid at the root of the trees, so that every tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

Luk_6:46 Why do you call me, `Lord, Lord,' and don't do the things which I say?

Joh_14:15 If you Love Me, keep my commands... 23 ...If anyone Loves Me, he will obey my words... 24 He who does not Love me will not obey my words.

 

ii.    The Bible Also Says

1Jn_2:4 He who says, “I have come to know him,” but does not keep His commands is a liar, and the Truth is not in him.

1Jn_3:6-10 Whoever remains in Him does not continue to sin. Whoever continues to sin has not seen Him, or known Him. 7 Little children, don’t let anyone deceive you: he that does what is right is righteous, just as He is righteous. 8 He that continues to sin is of the devil; because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this reason the Son of God was revealed, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whoever is born of God does not continue to sin; for His seed remains in him: and he cannot go on sinning, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God and the children of the devil are revealed: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God…

“Carnal Christians” Go to Hell

Tags: carnal Christians go to hell

12/7/17

>> If you get the point and you absolutely believe that the Corinthians were in danger of goinh to hell, then skip to the next point.

If you still think that they were going to heaven, then you are required to keep reading…

 

A lot of heresy has been taught based on referencing 1Co_3, the so-called “Carnal Christian” passage.

And although there are lots of slippery confusions on the wording, yet the main goal of “Carnal Preachers” is to teach that “Carnal Christians” are still going to heaven even though they are “Carnal”, or “fleshly”.

Rather than spend too much time on confusions on wording, it is more direct to simply confront the heresy that teaches that the “‘Carnal Corinthians’ prove that ‘Carnal Christians’ can still go to heaven today”.

Yes, on the contrary: it is actually because the very fact that the Bible says that the Carnal Corinthians were about to go to hell that proves that ‘Carnal Christians’ are also about to fall into eternal torcher for living in the flesh…

 

Summary of Corinthian Dangers of Hell

Paul Warned the Corinthians That They Were In Danger of Hell

Other dates (Jul-Dec 2017); 12/7/17

·          thinking they were Ok (1Co_10:12), but,

·          they were in danger of falling (1Co_10:8, 1Co_10:12), and,
being “burned up” (comp.
1Co_3:9, 1Co_3:15)

·          in the “fire” of Judgement “Day” (1Co_3:13), because,

·          “some have become arrogant” (1Co_4:18), and again he says,

·          “And you have become arrogant…” (1Co_5:2)

·          Paul says they were boasting with the puffing-leaven of pride (1Co_5:6)

·          They did injustice/unrighteousness (1Co_6:8), and,

·          “unrighteous ones will not *inherit God’s Kingdom” (* by lot & by law) (1Co_6:9)

·          They were about to be disqualified / tested and disapproved
[ἀδόκιμος (
1Co_9:27); οὐκ… ἐν τοῖς πλείοσιν αὐτῶν εὐδόκησεν (1Co_10:5);
“αἱρέσεις ἐν ὑμῖν” vs. “οἱ δόκιμοι”
1Co_11:19; ἀδόκιμοί (2Co_13:5);
unlike Paul:
2Co_13:6-7], from,

·          not running / competing in agony [ἀγωνιζόμενος (1Co_9:25)] / beating their body into slavery [ὑπωπιάζω (1Co_9:27)] with mighty virtues [ἐγκρατεύεται (1Co_9:25)] in such a way as to win (take hold down) [λαμβάνει / καταλάβητε (1Co_9:24)] the incurruptable / un-rotable [ἄφθαρτον (1Co_9:25)] prize [βραβεῖον (1Co_9:24)] / victor’s crown (1Co_9:25)

·          They had heresies* [αἱρέσεις (1Co_11:19)] / schisms [σχίσματα (1Co_11:18)]
[* Heresy = Hell:
Gal_5:19: work of the flesh; Gal_5:20: incl. heresies (ἔρις…ἐριθείαι…αἱρέσεις); Gal_5:21: those who practice {πράσσοντες} such things will not inherit {κληρονομήσουσιν} the kingdom of God {βασιλείαν Θεοῦ} (CAB);

Tit_3:10 CAB  Reject [παραιτοῦ] a divisive man [αἱρετικὸν ἄνθρωπον – heresy man] after the first and second admonition [νουθεσίαν]]
Tit
_3:10  αἱρετικὸν ἄνθρωπον μετὰ μίαν καὶ δευτέραν νουθεσίαν παραιτοῦ,

·          Paul was about to formally judge the Corinthians (1Co_5-6; 2Co_13:1), and,

·          excuminicate them for the continued sin, including…
[πολλοὺς τῶν προημαρτηκότων καὶ μὴ μετανοησάντων ἐπὶ τῇ ἀκαθαρσίᾳ καὶ πορνείᾳ καὶ ἀσελγείᾳ (
2Co_12:20-21) /
τοῖς προημαρτηκόσι (
2Co_13:2)] /
doing nasty evil [κακὸν (
2Co_13:7)] of
despising God’s weakness in Paul (
2Co_13:4), and,
not believing Jesus speaking the perfect/sun-tested/uncorrupted [οὐ…καπηλεύοντες…εἰλικρινείας (
2Co_2:17) / οὐδένα ἠδικήσαμεν, οὐδένα ἐφθείραμεν (2Co_7:2)] Word of God in him &
saying it ‘amonted to nothing’ [ἐξουθενημένος = ἐκ + ουθενεο (? See: WS: G1848), (
2Co_10:10)] &
>> comp. 1Co
_2:…. Making out as nothing
not considering Paul’s inability to contradict the Truth (
2Co_13:2-3; 2Co_13:8; 2Co_7:14; 2Co_2:17; which is just like Jesus: Joh_5:19-20, Joh_5:30).

·          2Co_13:2-3 CAB …I will not spare you [φείσομαι (same as 2Co_1:23)],  3  since you [ἐπεὶ] are seeking [ζητεῖτε] proof [δοκιμὴν – i.e. a testing proof] of [τοῦ – i.e. that] Christ [Χριστοῦ] speaking in me

·          Paul commanded them to question and test themselves if they were in the faith / had Jesus in them (2Co_13:5)

·          They were in danger of…
lusting (
1Co_10:6),
being idolatrous (
1Co_10:7),
prostituting/fornicating (
1Co_10:8),
God-tempting (
1Co_10:9),
complainers/grumblers/murmurers (
1Co_10:10)
who would be “strewn down” dead as the Israelites in the wilderness (
1Co_10:5).

·          They were in danger of being polytheistic gentile/pagans/heathens (1Co_10:20 (TSB); 1Co_12:2), and,

·          “Being lead” by speechless idols (1Co_12:2), and,

·          being idolatrous demon worshipers (1Co_10:7)

·          Sharing/Reciprocating with Idols/Demons (1Co_10:19-20; 1Co_12:2); κοινωνοὺς τῶν δαιμονίων (1Co_10:20)

·          Having their communion mixed with demons (1Co_10:21)

·          Cheating on Anointed One (2Co_11:2-3; comp. Num_5: spirit of jealousy)

·          Not being a holy-pure virgin -- i.e. committing spiritual prostitution/fornication (2Co_11:3) with another Jesus [ἄλλον ᾿Ιησοῦν] [which is calls the serpent/snake [ὄφις (2Co_11:3)] / the Satan [ὁ Σατανᾶς (2Co_11:14)] / another spirit [πνεῦμα ἕτερον λαμβάνετε] / another gospel / good-announcement [εὐαγγέλιον ἕτερον] (2Co_11:4)
taking a hold of another spirit

·          Tricked out / completely deceived like Eve by the serpent/snake [ὄφις (2Co_11:3)] / the Satan [ὁ Σατανᾶς (2Co_11:14)] [ὡς ὁ ὄφις Εὕαν ἐξηπάτησεν ἐν τῇ πανουργίᾳ αὐτοῦ (2Co_11:3); δόλιοι (2Co_11:13)]

·          Their knowledge being rotted [φθαρῇ τὰ νοήματα] away from the undivided Anointed One [ἀπὸ τῆς ἁπλότητος τῆς εἰς τὸν Χριστόν] (2Co_11:3)

·          …and all this is connected with “reigning as kings” without Paul: 1Co_4:8 / 2Co_11:5!

·          They initially needed repentance that would save them [μετάνοιαν εἰς σωτηρίαν (2Co_7:9-11)].

·          They eventually repented into salvation from the luxury of not needing/believing Paul’s inspiration (2Co_7:6-12).

The Corinthians were in Danger of Being Tested and Disapproved

1Co_9:24 Do you not know that [indeed (μὲν)] those ·running [τρέχοντες] in ·a stadium [σταδίῳ] all run, but one [εἷς] receives [λαμβάνει] the ·prize [βραβεῖον]? So run, ·in order that [ἵνα] ·you may win [καταλάβητε].
