Title: Before you can repent you must know you are wrong    
  
  
  
  

    

  
  
  
  


There are individual sins, societal sins, governmental sins, corporate sins, entertainment sins and media sins.   

Sin must be recognized and acknowledged as such before there can be repentance.   People under bondage to sin often cannot see the problem causing their torment.   

DEI is nothing more than injustice in the name of equity.   Furthermore, it is foolish as it disdains excellence, lowering standards, accepting less yielding a society of dullness and stupidity.   

DEI is sin.   

LGBTQ is perversion which has been presented as a different form of normality.   It feeds on the most precious part of our society - our youth.   It seeks to eliminate normal, healthy humanity in favor of imploding self-gratification.   

LGBTQ is sin.   

Wrong thinking, wrong lifestyles and the resulting destruction are inspired by the enemy, Satan.   

Many in our world have been deceived.   Satan is going about seeking whom he may devour.   We are in a spiritual war in which the souls of human beings are being destroyed while their bodies continue to function.   

Those who see only physical life as important (regardless of how it is lived) are in darkness.   Jesus told His generation " No, I tell you except you repent, you will all likewise perish."

Repentance is recognizing you are wrong and then changing.   

The West's turning from Truth to lies has been bringing destruction into and onto our civilization.   

Our president and his cabinet are correcting the mechanics of our government.   But people corrupted it because the people were corrupt.   Without reprentance, "the dog will return to his vomit".   

That is where each of us comes in.   We must repent of compromise ourselves.   Then we must promote Jesus Christ who SAVES people from themselves.   

In promoting Christ we must realize that He would not have sacrificed Himself for our sins if sin was no big deal.   

Sin is a very big deal - it is deception, bondage and death coated with sugar and packaged in a beautiful wrapper.   

Our Lord came to give us Life through the knowledge of Truth which sets us Free.   

Some of the greatest minds that have graced our planet never left darkness for the Light and Truth of Jesus Christ.   

We allowed those in darkness to be revered for their perverted brilliance, teaching their darkness and corrupting the minds of our children.   

Never forget that the most brilliant of God's creations, Lucifer, turned from light to darkness, from truth to lies and has made it his goal to destroy humanity as he destroyed himself.   
For whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ shall be saved.
What is the `name of the Lord`?     Jesus.     

What does it mean to `call upon the name of the Lord`?     It means to come to the Creator calling Him by His name, Jesus, to plea for salvation.     

God is just the generic name for deity.     
Calling upon God will not save anyone.     

Jesus is the express image of the only true and living God.     It is only in the name, Jesus, that anyone is saved.     
    Jesus is the name of His Holy Spirit Father.     

Understanding this gives real meaning to this important verse which declares the power of salvation in the name of Jesus.     

When a person acknowledges that Jesus is Lord by calling on His name, His Holy Spirit performs the work of salvation in the heart of the caller.

How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?     and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?     and how shall they hear without a preacher?
Reversing the order we find that:
    a preacher must be sent
    the preacher must preach the Gospel
    the hearer must believe the Gospel
    the believer must call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
    the Holy Spirit and Word birth them into the kingdom

And how shall they preach, except they be sent?     as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
It is such an honour and privilege to testify, to witness, to preach, to sing or otherwise proclaim the Gospel of Grace Through Faith In Christ Jesus.

I charge you therefore before the Holy Spirit and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
Jesus is the righteous judge.     believers will stand before Him in His Judgment Seat Of Christ to receive a reward.     Unbelievers will appear before Him in the White Throne Judgment.

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
This is the order of the day to all believers.     We are to:
    publicly proclaim the Gospel.     
    be ready to share the Truth
    reprimand and censure those who sin
    express strong disapproval of evil
    strongly encourage people to receive Christ
    stay within the authority of the scriptures with these actions
    not harangue individuals with the Gospel
    make sure everyone we know hears it from us.

Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Jesus said without Him we can do nothing .      But in the power of His Holy Spirit we can do all things .     

Make up your mind to draw from His strength, power and might to face the issues of life and be victorious.     

We appropriate the blessings of the Lord by faith in His Word that leads us to speak with His authority backed up by the power of His Holy Spirit.
