Romans 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”


     Don’t get me wrong.  Homosexuality is no worse of a sin than any other (James 2:10).  But what we are seeing in America is not only a “tolerance” of homosexuality, but an active push and determination to have it APPROVED by everyone.  Is that not a fulfillment of this very verse?  They are not content in their sin, they need everyone to CELEBRATE their sin with them.  And we see people falling in line!  How often have you heard of someone “coming out” and then people CELEBRATING IT!!  I don’t know why it amazes me to see Scripture fulfilled, but it does.
 
     Read this article here:
 
 
 
     Even a basic understanding of Biblical prophecy shows that this world is going to grow darker and darker and more and more anti-christ (2nd Timothy 3:13).  Christians will continually be made out to be the “villains” and persecution will grow (John 15:18).  Satan is called the prince and god of this world (John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11; 2nd Cor. 4:4; etc.), and the kingdoms belong to him and are given to whom ever he chooses (Luke 4:6).  So we should expect to see the kingdoms doing his bidding.
 
     So as I watch the news daily, what I see are warning signs to show us the age we live in (Matt. 24:33).  As freedoms are stripped away in the name of fighting terrorism or promoting tolerance, what really lies behind that agenda is antichrist.  It is a plot to establish a world opposed to Christ and His people.  It is a plan to establish parameters in which it will be easier to monitor, capture, and execute Christians.  Every attack on freedom is an attack on Christianity.
 
     So what are we to do?  LIFT UP OUR HEADS AND REJOICE!!  For the day draws near (Luke 21:28)!  Christ is COMING and soon we will be with Him!  We are not to panic.  WE WIN IN THE END!  Read Psalms 2.  The world leaders plot and plan against God and His Christ, BUT GOD LAUGHS AT THEM IN MOCKERY!  Their attempts are vain and futile.  You can’t wage war against the Creator of the universe and hope to have any success.  Foolish.
 
     So yes, we are to prepare but NOT to despair!  BE PREPARED to be hated, excluded, ostracized, ridiculed, imprisoned, persecuted, tracked, tortured, and even killed. But rejoice!  Death is all the can do.  They have no power beyond that! (Luke 12:4)
 
     Just keep preaching Saints.  And hold loosely to this life. (1st John 2:15-17; Matthew 10:39)
 
James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.”

2nd Timothy 3:13 “But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

John 12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

John 14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

John 16:11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

2nd Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Luke 4:6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.

Matthew 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

Luke 21:28  And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Psalms 2:1-12 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.”

Luke 12:4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

1st John 2:15-17 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”

Matthew 10:39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
