The situation in America today is similar and deteriorating rapidly. Your churches are weak and vacillating - few take seriously the Word of God. You take from Scripture what you feel comfortable with - that which fits your preconceived ideas, and ignore the rest.
But, be warned, wherever the Word of God is hidden or ignored, there will be certain destruction. Partly because the priests in Israel had failed to teach God's Word to the people, Israel suffered. There was no faithfulness, no love, and no acknowledgment of God in the land. Rather there was only cursing, lying, murder, stealing and adultery.
Like in ancient Israel, America today is guilty of forsaking God and attempting to create your own paths to heaven with broken cisterns. Few of you know what truth is anymore replacing fact with feeling on the altar of relativism and ridiculing anyone who claims to have truth. Your consciences have been seared and like the brazen prostitute; you refuse to blush with shame.
The satanic inspired lie of "Tolerance" - where God's Word is not proclaimed because people fear insulting or offending others has so infiltrated America today that few people even recognize the destructive results that inevitably follow.
If you're one who has redefined sin using the tolerance yardstick, I guarantee you won't like what you read here. You will likely be offended by what you believe to be a narrow-minded, hate-filled, and intolerant viewpoint.
Praise God! That means your conscience may still be intact.
Remember, Jesus brought a message of love and forgiveness.

Oh, feel free to defend this guy. I don't care. He has a cartoonish, absurd view of God.
The guy is exactly right. Look what happened to Israel every time the began to turn away from God. WHAM! Someone comes in and takes them into bondage again. First the Egyptians, then the Babylonians, then the Assirians....
ReplyDeleteIt isn't that God "punishes" them, its that they have to face the natural consequences of their actions.
It is your view of God that is cartooninsh. Care-Bears or My Little Pony, maybe.
