In the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, the Bible reveals to us that Abraham’s nephew Lot, was deeply troubled and tormented in his soul day after day by the completely immoral and lawless behavior in the city of Sodom. I can honestly say, I know how he felt.
Before the great flood, as told in the book of Genesis, GOD was sorely grieved over the evil that had completely overtaken men’s hearts. In both cases, men’s hearts and the resulting corruption had past the point of no return. The only thing left for GOD to do was to save the few that were still righteous, that still worshiped their creator and held to His laws, and then, to destroy the evil that had no cure.
Maybe your asking the question why? If He’s GOD, why didn’t he fix it? The answer is, He can’t. He will not force us to choose Him and will not violate our free will. He intercedes when we ask Him to, He answers in our best interest if we give our life to Him and seek Him. Jesus Christ gives us eternal life! But here’s the catch. Your soul must want it. It must want good and not want evil. Sure, we have a fallen nature and we are naturally bent toward evil until we receive a helper, the Holy Spirit, but at the end of the day, you must make the choice for Him and let Him transform you in thought and deed.
Can you see how GOD has been recently exposing the hidden evil and corruption for us in everything from government, education, entertainment, and the church?
Despite all of this, I see so many that refuse to accept or believe what they are seeing out of either pride, fear, apathy, or for some, they have embraced what is evil and now call it good.
The principle of sowing and reaping is absolutely true and we are reaping the results of “tolerance”. Not tolerance of different cultures and ideas in general, but tolerance of immoral, destructive, and evil behavior that is now becoming mainstream. We can see it’s effect in the collapse of the family, children raising children, sexual obsession, obsession with the occult, a huge percentage of the population addicted to something, on psychotropic drugs, or simply full of bitterness and anger. Hatred of others is off the charts with many picking their chosen scapegoat of either race, religion, nationality, or social status, to make themselves feel better about themselves and have a cause.
Dr Martin Luther King said it best in his “I have a Dream” speech. He dreamed of a day when men would be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. I couldn’t agree more. The question is what is character and what is the standard? I know what standard he was referring to, GOD’s, but that standard is being rejected today by so many that want to be their own god.
The idea that end justifies the means, that it is okay to deceive, lie, kill, steal, or persecute others to get what we want is simply wrong and is running rampant in our society. It’s a cancer that is the result of removing the standard which was given by GOD as written in His Holy Word, the Bible. The idea that society can function with everyone defining their own truth is a lie from the pit of hell.
There is a point where the fire is feeds itself, a point of no return, which leads to the complete collapse of society. It’s happened before and it’s happening before our eyes. The difference now however, is that this time, it will be the last time.
Why? GOD’s Word not only gave us the standard to live by, He gave us the intel on what to look for, what will happen, and what His response will be. I can assure you, you will want to be on His side.
While watching two separate movies recently, I heard the line “Better to rule in hell than serve in heaven”. Really? There’s a few problems with that statement.
First, there is a hell, and there is a lake of fire. Hell, or Hades, is a temporary holding place where demons and demonic entities have authority over the souls that go there. The human souls are tortured by them beyond imagination. Human souls do not rule anything and are hated by Satan His fallen angels, and demons.
The second place is the lake of fire. That is the final place of judgement for not only human souls that were in hell, but also the demons, fallen angels, and Satan himself. The Bible tells us that the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. It’s not a heathen playground where anyone rules.
I’m going to be absolutely honest with whom ever is reading this. If you believe it’s acceptable to kill a full term baby, and/or, you believe messing with a little child’s head by confusing them as to what gender they are, you have absolutely hardened your heart to what you know to be right and wrong, and have given yourself over to evil and Satan. Only you know why, but I suspect it’s because you are also involved in sexual sin and are trying to justify your own sin.
If you have convinced yourself that it’s acceptable to have sex with children, to traffic them, or sacrifice them to your demon god, you are being controlled and/or possessed by a demon spirit.
You’ve heard it said before, you are what you eat. That is also true of our soul. What are you feeding on? Good things? Truth? Righteousness, holiness, honesty, love? Or is it, vampires, zombies, drugs, sexual decadence, the occult, violence, hatred, greed, or anger?
The world is out of control and it’s a heart problem. As the world clammers for a false peace, sudden destruction will come. The Antichrist will arise with his one world government and religion, every aspect of your life will be controlled, and you will loose all freedom. Christians will be hated and killed, and Jews will be persecuted and murdered. Why? Because Satan hates you, hates Jesus, and hates GOD.
But wait! You must understand, that Jesus has already defeated Satan and won the war! Your ticket out of here is with Him and into eternal life and an eternal kingdom. He’s returning at the behinning of the great tribulation period to rapture believers and once again at the end to setup a 1000 year reign prior to the final judgement, a new heaven, and a new earth. When he returns at the end of the great tribulation period, the Antichrist and the false profit will be thrown into the lake of fire and Satan will be bound. Satan (Lucifer) will be also thrown into the lake of fire, along with his fallen angels, at the end of the 1000 years.
Did you catch that? Lucifer. He loses. He’s not the light bearer. He’s a created fallen cherub who will lose and be destroyed. He’s only given a short reign to test who’s still here. What will you choose? Good, or evil?
I urge you now, if you havent, repent. Give your life to Jesus Christ and turn from sin and evil. Eternity is a long time.
Scripture
2 Peter 2: 4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but threw them into the lowest hell and imprisoned them in chains of deepest darkn
ess, holding them for judgment;5 and if he did not spare the ancient world but protected Noah, a righteous preacher, along with seven others when he brought the flood on the world of ungodly people; 6 and if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and destroyed them by burning them to ashes, making them an example to ungodly people of what is going to happen to them; 7 and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man who was greatly distressed by the immoral conduct of lawless people— 8 for as long as that righteous man lived among them, day after day he was being tortured in his righteous soul by what he saw and heard in their lawless actions— 9 then the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials and to hold unrighteous people for punishment on the day of judgment,
1 Thes 5: 2 for you yourselves know very well that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 When people say, “There is peace and security,” destruction will strike them as suddenly as labor pains come to a pregnant woman, and they will not be able to escape.
Rev 19:20 The beast was captured, along with the false prophet who had performed signs on its behalf. By these signs the false prophet had deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and worshipped its image. Both of them were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.21 The rest were killed by the sword that belonged to the rider on the horse and that came from his mouth, and all the birds gorged themselves with their flesh.
Rev 20: 10 and the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet were. They will be tortured day and night forever and ever.
John3: 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever believes in him will not perish, but have everlasting life.17 For God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him. 18 He who believes in him is not judged. He who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil. 20 For everyone who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, lest his works would be exposed.21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.”
