1 | why are so many defying Gods word | Lev 18:22 | matronsgt13 | 126982 | ||
I cannot under stand how America can defy God's word the way it has been defied. when the scripture plainly tell us what God is against. Why is this? Leviticus 20:13 tells us " IF A MAN ALSO LIE WITH MANKIND,AS WITH WOMANKIND, BOTH OF THEM HAVE COMMITTED AN ABOMINATION; THEY SHALL SURELY BE PUT TO DEATH; THEIR BLOOD SHALL BE UPON THEM.Romans 1:24-26 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their bodies between themselves; Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worship the creature more than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use unto that which is against nature. God is not please with what is going on in America, Sure we must know that God distroyed a whole city for this very thing. and so much hatered is being stirred up over this thing. I feel the God will cut his work short and righteous for the elect less no flesh will be saved. I wonder why America is in so much trouble. dare we defy God's word? | ||||||

Hi, matron! There are two passages of Scripture that gives us the answers to your query: For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ, and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. "Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now--and never to be equaled again. (Matthew 24:5-13, 21) Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. (Romans 1:22-32) We are called to live separate from the world, to be holy (1 Peter 1:16); Christ's concern was not for the unbelievers but for the believers (disciples) and those who would come to know Him through them (John 17:9-20)... it is not that Christ does not have love for all of mankind; rather it is humanity that chooses to reject Christ (Matthew 20:28; John 1:5, 11-13; 3:19; 12:46). The world is secular and worships and thrives on anything and everything that is ungodly--but we must remember that these happenings are not caused by simple human frailty, the ancient serpent is roaming about the world making disciples and apostles of those who would serve against Christ! (Ephesians 6:10-18) God Bless! Angel |
