    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    I have no denomination to recommend that is not just as bad and find myself wondering how damaging the COVID pandemic is to the church in general.

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. - Leviticus 20:13 But... The scripture in the OP deals mainly with the proud and the haughty spirit. Noting the righteous are...

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    It is good for two virgins to marry and stay together until “death do us part.” Due to the hardness of heart Moses suffered a bill of divorce. Anything beyond that, including “to commit abomination” as stated in that passage, is evil.

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    Did I say that? Why did John the Baptist lose his head? For calling out the evils of divorce? What I am saying is that the evil can begin by simply listening to music that pumps up the ego… Leading to the more serious sins of fornication on down the road.

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    Probably because the evil did not start out as what you would call, “se:usl deviancy”

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    Point being… Unrighteousness begins something like… 1. Pride 2. Gluttony 3. Laziness 4. Uncharitable Not at all as obvious evil. It may take a generation or two, but it can end up into something seen in Sodom and Gomorrah.

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. - Proverbs 29:18 It is important that a healthy vision is pursued.

    The Terrible Sins of Sodom

    Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good. -...

    A well-known evangelist's silliness...

    The strangers to God, His grace and His love, Were gathered by blue Galilee. To listen with joy To words from the lips Of the Stranger who sat by the sea.

    If You Had Your Druthers...

    I am a supporter of the bbnradio.org, which most stuff is preached out of the KJV, including Alexander Scourby’s KJV read. I do attend a men’s Bible study where the leader will read from another version. I do not criticize the man, but do listen in a little more intently wondering what that...

    A man led by the Holy Spirit will not preach a substandard sermon.

    The Calvinist hated the Ana-Baptists

    Christs messages to the churches are to a changing people... Ephesus - Need to remember the first love Smyrna - Persecution - Foxes book of martyrs has the persecutions as ten Pergamos - Pergos is a tower, needed in the dark ages Thyatira - A descent into the dark ages Sardis - Sardis is a gem...

    Isaac Newton Announced Christ’s Return In 2060

    If I had to pick an end time date I would go with the scientist, Isaac Newton... "And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times...

    John Bunyan's Methods of a full salvation

    So… Why am I not here recommending the Calvinist an Arminian type church? Probably because the difference between the two are that the Calvinist do not believe in backsliding but the Arminian practice it! It is hard to find folk these days that I would consider sanctified!

    John Bunyan's Methods of a full salvation

    My son, do you not love God?" "I cannot remember when I did not love him." "Do you believe on his Son, Jesus Christ?" "I have always believed on Christ. My mother taught me that from my earliest recollection." "Do you accept him as your Savior?" "I certainly do, and have always done so."...

    John Bunyan's Methods of a full salvation

    After the team had been fed and we had been to supper we put the mules to the wagon, filled it with chairs and we were off to the meeting. When we reached the locality it was about dark and the people were assembling. Their horses and wagons filled up the cleared spaces and the singing was...

    John Bunyan's Methods of a full salvation

    I like the old Methodist way sanctification was taught. If the old timers could not sense the sweet spirit of Christ in the experience they would tell you to come back tomorrow night. And smile a little as they said it, especially knowing that there were revivals and good services ahead. My...
