Americas Falling Morality.
Morals in America have been on the down-cline in the past 20 years. Today we read of sex scandles from Catholic Priest, one right after another. Presbyterian Churches are considering, embracing gays as Ministers, Episcopalian Church accepts gays as Priest, and will vote on making Bishops out of them, Music has gone down hill with, cursing, vulgariety and even the movies of today are not worth watching. Even some of the news programs have gone the way of more entertainment for adults than actually reporting the news. Childrens books are coming out embraceing the idea that homo-sexuality is good. Television shows being brodcast that show girls trying to find out who the father of their baby is and laughting about it. "O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." So what are we surounded by today? Adulteries, Fornications, Murders, Theves, Covetousness, Wickedness, Deceit, Boasters, Pride, Blasphemers, Unthankful, Unholy, Lasciviousness, an Evil eye, & Foolishness. Phi 3:2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. [A cutting off; a false circumcision.People using as few words as possible to give the necessary information, or compressed in order to be brief.] [Ref; Phi 3:2 - of dogs: Pro_26:11; Isa_56:10,Isa_56:11; Mat_7:6, Mat_7:15, Mat_24:10; Gal_5:15; 2Ti_4:14, 2Ti_4:15; 2Pe_2:22; Rev_22:15 evil: Phi_3:19; Psa_119:115; Mat_7:22, Mat_7:23; 2Co_11:13; Gal_5:13; 1Ti_1:19; 2Ti_3:1-6; 2Ti_4:3, 2Ti_4:4; Tit_1:16; 2Pe_2:18-20; Jud_1:4, Jud_1:10-13; Rev_21:8 the: Phi_3:3; Rom_2:28; Gal_2:3, Gal_2:4, Gal_5:1-3, Gal_5:6; Rev_2:9, Rev_3:9] 2Co 11:13-15; For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his{Satans} ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. These are the false apostles of Christ. [Ref;2Co 11:13 - false: 2Co_11:15, 2Co_2:17, 2Co_4:2; Mat_25:24; Act_15:1, Act_15:24, Act_20:30; Rom_16:18; Gal_1:7, Gal_2:4, Gal_4:17; Gal_6:12; Eph_4:14; Phi_1:15, Phi_1:16; Col_2:4, Col_2:8; 1Ti_1:4-7, 1Ti_4:1-3, 1Ti_6:3-5; 2Ti_2:17-19, 2Ti_3:5-9, 2Ti_4:3, 2Ti_4:4; 2Pe_2:1-3; 1Jo_2:18, 1Jo_4:1; 2Jo_1:7-11; Jud_1:4; Rev_2:2, Rev_2:9, Rev_2:20, Rev_19:20 deceitful: Phi_3:2; Tit_1:10, Tit_1:11] The down fall of ethics and morals must be blamed on our selves, allowing our Government to take away Jesus out of our schools and churches such as these, Some Catholics, Some Presbyterians & Some Episcopalians, for denighing the authority of Gods word, making good evil and evil good. Trying to councel a young man on lifestyles I recieved this letter from Him, " This is my response to Rev.Anthony R.Smith Sorry you lost me after the first paragraph of your copy and past of the bible.. YAWN!!! Blah, blah, blah going to hell yeah right!! You can pray for me light a candle what ever. The religious right wingers might even have things their way right now, but I see things changing for the better. More and more people are wising up to all this, and are seeing that Homosexuality is neither a sin nor a life style, its just who we are, not what we have CHOSEN TO BE!You might set the bible down and do some reading from PFLAG." You might be wondering what my answer was to him, this was it, "Weather you believe or not is not the issue, the point is sense you have heard the truth you are now held accountable for it." These children are learning these things from many so called ministers of God and from television shows. I was unable to turn him around because of these false apostles, enemies of the cross of Christ. Many ministers try to push God on people, this is wrong. After we deliever the message of truth, then it becomes a matter between them and God. Eze 3:11 And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.[Forbear,To cease; to let alone; to be silent.] No wonder we are involved in unwinable wars, children on drugs, gangs becoming normal in our life. Our nations boarders unsafe, anti-christian churches flourishing in our neighborhoods, earthquakes, fires, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes becoming active all over the world, hunger, drought, disease and fear of a pandemic{Epidemic over a wide geographic area and affecting a large proportion of the population.} Phi 3:18-19; (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) Those that are changing the word of God into a lie will answer for their deeds. Not only what they have done to themselves but for what they have, are and will do to others that follow after their unrightiousness. The blood is upon their hands. Mat 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Mat 13:15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. Men today are after what they don't earn, they crave other peoples possessions, they seek noterity and fame. They seek to justify themselves by the amount of money and popularity they have, not worrying about the effect that they are having on others and not caring. 2Ti 4:3-4; "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."

Bang, Bang,Your Dead.
Zechariah 14:1-14:12 Preaching the Gospel is an exciting adventure into the past, present and future. Many believe that humanity will continue at its present rate and eventually come together in peace and love. I'm sorry to say that this is just another lie from the father of all lies, Satan. Man is destined to die, no matter what, age, race, color, weather they be rich or poor. Death will not be denighed. As a child, I believe that many of you played games with your friends, some played, Cops and Robbers, and others Cowboys and Indians. The game was always the same, when we came upon our opponent we said, Bang, Bang,Your Dead. Lets look at the reality of the truth. This part of verse comes from Zec 14:12; "Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth." This scripture is stating that the flesh of mankind, that refuse God, shall be obliterated as they stand, bang, bang, your dead for real. Gog & Magog, Armageddon, and the Last war with Satan, which follows the 1000 year reign of Christ, all have the same thing in common. Death and destruction of man-kinds way of life. We as ministers have just scratched the surface of the truth in scripture. Remember Sodom and Gomorrah? Remember how that God decided to destroy all because of the unrighteousness. How the people had forgotten about God and His laws and statutes. How they turned to false gods and idols, homo-sexuality and all manner of debochery? Gen 19:28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace. Jud 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Well my friends, look around you today? "Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet," No where to run ,no where to hide, no time to repent, no time to ask forgiveness nor say good by to this life. Consumed by fire as you stand upon your feet and at the next moment surrounded by everlasting fire, heat and smoke. Each day that we live brings us closer to death, for some the joy of death and others the shame of it. I am just an old country preacher, some call a Hell Fire and Brimstone Man. But as this world races closer to the end of times, we must warn them that are outside the will of God. Jude gives me the inspiration that I need to continue to preach. Jude 1:10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. As I have said before, I will say again, It doesn't matter what you believe, what matters is what Gods word says. Many are going after, Scientology, Budism, Musleumism and many other isms. Science is the bigest false god that runs rampant in this world today. Christians are being attacked by scientist that are trying to prove the existance of some other way of evolution. Man has corrupted himself with, false doctrine, unrighteous laws and attrocities hand over fist. Christianity has been and will be blamed for all of mans woes. Jude 1:22-23, And of some have compassion, making a difference: There is still a place for compassion. Compassion among those that are willing to hear with their ears and for those that are willing see with their eyes. And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; {The fire of Hell} hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. The garment, the false religion and attitude of man. Every man has religion, every man believes in something, Buda, Allah, False Prophets, Money, Power, Prestige, Government and even themselves. They all believe that what they are doing is right. But their path is leading to a death of all deaths. All of this is religion. Psa 110:6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries. When God says enough, then death will be reliesed, as it was in Egypt, but Death will strike quickly and with a vengeance, according to the will of God. Isa 66:15- 16 For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many. Man will not listen to God, man has refused to listen to His ambasitors, prophets and even His own Son. Isa 2:19 And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth. This earth is going to rock and real, like a drunkard. [Extremely important references; Eze_38:18-22, Eze_39:17-20] Rev 9:5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. Rev 9:6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. Can you emagin, people , jumping from cliffs, shooting themselves, drinking poison and not being able to die? A Day of sadness and day of torment a Day of Vengeance. Zec 14:12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem;{Who are these nations that have fought against Jerusalem? All Nations.} Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. As a Nuclear blast only worse. Eze 39:13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD. Eze 39:14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search. Eze 39:15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog. Its time to stop playing around with space, its time to stop playing with scientology, its time to stop playing around with evolution, its time to stop condemning the Ten Commandments as being subversive to our Children. Coming soon will be, Bang, Bang, Your Dead, for real.
Set your House in Order
Isaiah 38:1-38:2 Set your House in Order, for thou shall shurley die. A look into the Heart of man and God. The Bible tells us that mans wisdom is foolishness to God. That there is a way that seems right to man but in the end it leads to destruction. This warning came to King Hezekiah, in Isaiah 38:1, what is God telling us today, that our houses are not in order? There is much in scripture concerning the House of God and of man. But before we consider this, lets look at the three parts of man himself. 1. The soul, the soul is the part of the man that thinks and reasons and plans. Its the mind that Satan wants to control and once he controls your mind then he has it all. Our mind controls the speech and recognition of good and evil. 2. The Flesh, the flesh is the physical part of man, which wants only that which is good for itself, lust and pleasure and anything that feels good. The flesh and mind work well together, what the mind says the flesh follows after. 3. The Spirit, the spirit is what makes us who we are, it separates us from all other beings and animals. The scripture tells us that there is one thing that man and animal have in common, that is a spirit. It goes on to say that when a man and animal die that the spirit of the animal goes back into the ground from which it came and the spirit of man goes up to judgment. There are many different interpretations of scripture, lets look at one. 1st Timothy 3:5, for if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the Church of God? We can look at this the way many look at it, the home that a man lives in or we can look at this spiritually in this manner. If we as christians cant rule our spiritual house. We saw a minute ago that there are three parts to man, the flesh, soul and spirit, which do you suppose is supposed to rule the other two? The spirit, the spirit must take dominion over the other two. This is what makes us christians and separates us from the world. We have to look at the ordnances of God and determine the right path to take. The Bible states that, Judgment begins at the House of God. The Church. Our house is supposed to be the temple of the Holy Ghost, but how many people are being deceived in changing their pattern of life because of false doctrine? The house that we are inside must be clean and acceptable to God as a Holy sacrifice. We are told that we must offer up our bodys as a living sacrifice to God which is our reasonable service to God. Why? Because we are the house of God. A stone , a pillar, a piece of the temple. We are lively stones which should be fit for the masters use. Not corrupt or vile or tainted. Why do you suppose that the scriptures state that, not everyone that sayeth, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, only those who do the will of the Father.? What then, is the will of God here in this verse? The will of God, to keep it simple, is to believe in the Son. Jesus. There are to many ministers trying to make the gospel so difficult to understand, its a wonder that anyone is saved. Jesus, was direct and understandable, He keep it simple. Such as, A house divided among itself shall not stand, not the physical but the spiritual. Our House, our spirit, our life, you are the house, and if you are divided between Jesus and the world, you will not stand the test, that everyone will have to face at the Judgment time. So get your house in order. But we as the house, also, according to Jesus, must count the cost. And what is the cost? As we've said before, salvation is free, but decipleship, will cost you everything. Warning after warning in scripture, telling us, today, that the time is short, decern the signs of the times. Ephesians 5:16, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. The congregation of the church have responsibility and so do the pastors. We being not many masters, knowing that we receive the greater condemnation. We have a responsibility to the church to make sure that the wolf doesn't make it into the sheep fold, we are to give our life for the sheep. We are the house that must stand, the preachers, teachers, ministers, lay-member and door keeper, helpers, all together. We have built on a firm foundation, a rock, which cannot be moved. I'm telling you right now, if we cant go to Heaven, hand in hand, we are not going to make it. So remember what Isaiah said to King Hezekiah, all of us, Set your House in order, Set it in order, church, and pray that you are found worthy to escape the tribulation that is coming upon the whole world. Today, Set your House in Order.
