America, a Not So Holy Land
Everywhere I turn, headlines in the news showcase another instance proving the moral and spiritual degradation of man.It’s like a ‘one-two punch’ evidencing bible prophesy. The sad part: This new news is still old news that has been going on since the creation of man.
Here in America we have recently made Sodom and Gomorrah look like a romp through preschool. We have graduated, within all forms of sexual immorality and sins to the status of socially acceptable and legal unions of marriage.
Look,
this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had
pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; 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
fit. (Ezekiel 16:49-50)
You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:22)
as
Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to
these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after
strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of
eternal fire. (Jude 7)
For some reason the mainstream media chooses to ignore the fact that the same things are happening right here on our own American soil, a Not So Holy Land.
Just last week: Muslim Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, – Chattanooga, Tennessee on July 16, 2015: killed four Marines and a Navy sailor at two Military operational centers from a moving vehicle with an AK-47 style weapon and a handgun. This is evil satanic terrorism committed on our own soil.
Note: Still an ongoing Case at this time. Muslim Alton Alexander Nolen, age 30, aka Jah’Keem Yisrael worked at Vaughan Foods in Moore Oklahoma and had been trying to convert his co-workers to Islam. After being fired from Vaughan Foods On September 25 2014; Nolen Allegedly drove up to Vaughan Foods in Moore, Oklahoma and attacked and beheaded Colleen Hufford, 54, severing her head with a produce knife and then stabbed Traci Johnson, 43, before Mark Vaughan, an off-duty officer and the company’s former owner, shot him.
Ariel Sellouk – Houston, August 2003: throat slit attempted but incomplete beheading.
Brendan Mess, Erik Weissman, and Raphael Teken – Waltham, Massachusetts, September 2011: throats slit, allegedly by Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon bombers.
Hany F. Tawadros and Amgad A. Konds – Jersey City, N.J., February 2013: shot, decapitated, hands severed.
These are just some of the crimes taking place in America. More common and recent Muslim crimes include honor killings, female genital mutilation, and slavery. This is what Islamics contribute to the lands of their immigration including America.
New Old News
For
when they came into the house, he was lying on his bed in his bedroom;
then they struck him and killed him, beheaded him and took his head, and
were all night escaping through the plain. (2 Samuel 4:7)
So he sent and had John beheaded in prison. (Matthew 14:10)
And
I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to
them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their
witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the
beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or
on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand
years. (Revelation 20:4)
Satan’s Perversion
Satan has twisted the leadership of America away from, ‘In God We Trust,’ into doing whatever is right in our own eyes.
“You shall not at all do as we are doing here today—every man doing whatever is right in his own eyes— (Deuteronomy 12:8)
In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes. (Judges 21:25)
Take an honest look at this passage from the book of Galatians. You know in your heart that Satan has influenced American into sliding down the slippery slope of sin.
Now
the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication,
uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions,
jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions,
heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I
tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those
who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21)
Not So Holy Land
There is definitely something wrong in a Land built on the motto ‘In God We Trust’ when you can’t pray in a school, say Merry Christmas, and get shunned for openly speaking about Jesus while others legally engage in same-sex marriage while walking down the street holding hands, drinking a beer and smoking a joint next to a school that desperately needs those prayers.
That’s why I say, “America, a Not So Holy Land.”
Of the Rock who begot you, you are unmindful, And have forgotten the God who fathered you. (Deuteronomy 32:18)
He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. (John 1:11)
Just Cruisin for a Bruisin
In the book of Genesis we see that men of great notoriety were honored notwithstanding their wickedness, but honored for their wickedness. The ways of man had become contentment in evil. Stanch and rebellious in all their sinful endeavors against a Holy God. God grieved in His heart and became sorry that He created man.
Then
the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and
that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil
continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth,
and He was grieved in His heart. (Genesis 6:5-6)
The
earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with
violence. So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for
all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. (Genesis 6:11-12)
This is why God sent a great universal deluge to engulf the earth.
So
He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground:
both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were
destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the
ark remained alive. (Genesis 7:23)
America was once a Nation proud to proclaim Jesus to the world. America tasted the blessings of God through obedience to His laws. God has so richly blessed America by raising our Great Nation up as leaders, proud, and free. An example of what trusting in God means.
The moral majority of America has spoken and has fallen away from Jesus by putting His teachings, commandments, and love to open shame and ridicule. Choosing in favor of a hedonistic Sodom and Gomorrah way if life. A utopia of sinful carnal desires. In ? We trust.
For
it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted
the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and
have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if
they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify
again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame. (Hebrews 6:4-6)
Now,
brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our
gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or
troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as
though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means;
for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the
man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, (2 Thessalonians 2:1-3)
Now
the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from
the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,
speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a
hot iron, forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods
which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe
and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to
be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; for it is sanctified by
the word of God and prayer. (1 Timothy 4:1-5)
White House a ‘Rainbow’ of Lights?
I
set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the
covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be, when I bring a cloud
over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; and I will
remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living
creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to
destroy all flesh. (Genesis 9:13-15)
Using the colors of the rainbow is a direct, blatant, and wicked act. A slap in the face of Jesus the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame. (Hebrews 6:4-6) Making America, a Not So Holy Land.
Just as in History’s past, before and during the times when Jesus walked the earth in the flesh. The world plunges into the cesspool of filth that will once again bring God’s judgment upon all the earth.
Truly,
these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men
everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will
judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has
given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.” (Acts 17:30-31)
What to do?
There were whore houses and bars. Roman culture demanded and captures the decadence, debauchery and excess of many hedonistic desires for gluttonous living.
Both the Bible and Secular History has proved that there were wars, crimes, crucifixions, beheadings, impalements, horrendous mutilations, and innumerable methods of atrocious evil acts committed against one to another.
As we know there were many gods by which the seduction of various religious beliefs were enthralled. The Greeks, Romans, Jews, and Egyptians to name a few were all living together in a mixed utopia of sadistic carnal ways. Just like in America today!
King David a musician wrote a psalm that described the folly of the Godless during his day.
The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt,
They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.
The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there are any who understand, who seek God. They have all turned aside, They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, No, not one. (Psalm 14:1-3)
They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.
The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, To see if there are any who understand, who seek God. They have all turned aside, They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, No, not one. (Psalm 14:1-3)
And
being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became
obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. (Philippians 2:8)
Be Sad but Rejoice!
As the world is ‘going to Hell in a hand basket’ I will rejoice because I know Jesus our redeemer draws near.
Then
they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great
glory. Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your
heads, because your redemption draws near.” (Luke 21:27-28)
Join Jesus and Rejoice!
“Lord Jesus, I am a sinner and I need a Savior. Right now I will turn away and repent from my sin and accept you as my Lord and Savior. I trust and believe that You are the Son of God, my Lord and Savior for my salvation, I know and believe that You died on the Cross and rose again from the grave to pay for my sins. I thank you for saving me. Amen.”
