Unrighteous Leaders ~and The Consequences

For those who refuse the truth of God Word there will be consequences for their sins. The range of this accountability will be great and most severe; If you live by the God's Law then you shall die by God's Law! "For the wages of sin is death..."Roman 6:23

God's Law tells us.
"Anyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him." 1 John 3:15
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Matthew 5:27-28
“‘If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death." Leviticus 21:10
"They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed .... and the land was desecrated by their blood." Psalm 106:38
There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil,feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness(AA) who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community. Proverbs 6:16-19

God's Judgment on Jerusalem’s Sins was spoken through the Prophet Ezekiel while in exile in the land of Babylon and I believe America's judgment will be similar. God is the same today as He was then, as He will be forever and ever.

Abortion is an abomination against God's WORD, it is the shedding of the most innocent blood of all. Anyone that sheds innocent blood is a murderer. Anyone who supports someone who has blood on their hands will also receive the consequences for this action as well. The judgment for murder by God's Law can be nothing less then death.
I will make one more attempt to clarify this statement. By God's Law if you support a politician who has innocent blood on his hands for supporting abortion, then I believe you yourself have received this innocent blood on your hands and the consequences can be nothing less then death. The Old Testament requirement for justice is "an eye for an eye...", but we now live in the age of the New Covenant, the time of Grace for those who have Christ as their Savior.
I am most certain this warning to America can also be extended to the one that supports the politician that supports the Gay Rights agenda. Homosexuality is sexual perversion and an abomination against God's WORD. Abominations against God's WORD can not be wished away. But God promises complete forgiveness of our sins once we sincerely turn from and forsake them. So, praise God they can be forgiven and your sins washed away by the the BLOOD of the LAMB, our LORD and SAVIOR, Jesus Christ. Once again I must make clear that while God hates abortion and homosexuality, He still has love for those involved. It is the action that is an abomination to the Lord and He holds us accountable for those actions. We must remember that all sin is intolerable by God and to compare the seriousness of one sin to another is simply an act of futility. If Jesus didn't die on the Cross for all sins, both small and large, then He would have died in vain. Thankfully that is not the case, His blood cleans us of all sin!

Simply put, Grace can be defined as God's unmerited favor. God's Grace is something God does for the benefit of His people because He loves them. Grace can never be earned, it's totally free. But please understand this, Forgiveness and Grace are not given so one may continue to sin.

The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him, And He will show them His covenant.
Ps. 25:14 (NKJ)

Unrighteous Leaders

An Evangelical Christian who strives to be the man that God wants me to be and who is far from being perfect. As God desires of all those who call upon His name, I am required to share what God reveals to me, so that others may hear the truth. I am also required to pray for those who are in authority over me.

I thoroughly believe that Barack Hussein Obama II was God's chosen man to be president because this is the man that Americans deserves at this time. God in His wisdom, as His plan unfolds, chooses both the righteous and unrighteous to be in positions of authority. Of course this is dependant upon the situation and hearts and attitudes of the people. America has become a nation with many who harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in their hearts, they even boast about it or they will deny the truth when the evidence reveals their motives for this unrighteous behavior.
A great many Americans, not only just our leaders, have become prideful and arrogant thinking that there is no nation to rival ours. In their vanity believing that their wisdom, which was all due to their own initiative, has made America great. They have no Fear of the LORD, they may say they believe in God, they may read a Bible, they may even listen to a sermon, but there are virtually no changes or good fruit in their lives to prove there is a belief in Sovereign God.

God is the giver of life, the giver of all good things in life, from wisdom, to understanding. As Christians we should not just choose that which pleases us. We should weigh our thoughts, needs and desires with godly wisdom, so that we would not be found sinning against a Holy and Righteous God.
As a Christian I am called to pray for Pres. Obama and all others in leadership that their hearts may be softened and turned to the One and only True God of all Creation, the God that brought His children out of bondage from the land of Egypt, that they may be the ones to introduce the One True God to all nations. The Israelites failed their commission, to go into all the world to proclaim liberty and freedom from the bondage of sin throughout the land to all its inhabitants; so now God has raised up the Christian church to share His Word with the world.

Woe, to the unrighteous nations, for God judges the corruptible judges and leaders; both in governments and in churches for their iniquities more severely, than that of the people of the nations.

As revealed many times in the Bible, God used several unrighteous leaders in Israel, to draw the hearts of man back to a Holy and Righteous God Who desires only the best for those that seek Him.

If man fails to listen to the truth, will he be held accountable for his actions? Yes! And ignorance of God's moral laws will not be an excuse on Judgement Day.

The second part to this post, titled; Unrighteous Leaders ~ America, should be posted in a day or two.

Mohammed's Dreams

This is the first of 5 videos that reveals the transformation of a young man's life and his love for his Father. The videos describe their journey out of the Muslim faith into an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Man has searched the world over and even the heavens for the meaning of life. Yet as he stares into the eyes that look back at him from the mirror he fails to see the wonders of one of God's greatest creation. It is as if he is blind to the wonders of creation, for all of creation declares the Glory of God. And mankind is His greatest creation and He has breathed His Spirit into us and created us in His image.
The greatest evidence of the existence of God and His precious Son, Jesus is found within the pages of the Bible. Yet, when the Word of God is not available to us, it is also important to note that God, who is unchanging, still speaks to us through visions and in dreams as He did to the godly prophets of the past. God is good and compassionate towards us and it is His will that none should perish. Even in a nation where Christ is not honored as our Lord and Savior, God in His faithfulness jealously draws those to Himself who are truly seeking Him with an open heart. He will use whatever means and methods are necessary to accomplish this result. And the testimony shared by this young man Mohammed joyously demonstrates this to the Glory of God.
