Stop Lingering

You must be born again, for if you are not born TWICE, you will die twice, both physically (the first death) and spiritually in the lake of fire (the second death). You must be washed in the Blood of Jesus Christ that was shed for His enemies, or else you will die in your sins. You must come humbly to *HIM* for mercy, and find everything your soul needs in HIM, or you will remain under the wrath of God, condemnation, and will inevitably perish in your iniquity. Your sins being forgiven by Christ Jesus is what matters most. Repent - stop lingering in your darkness, turn your back on your sins, stop walking toward hell, do an about face, repent toward God, and stop flirting with disaster. Make Christ the Priority in your thoughts. Trust Christ with your soul, or else you will lose it. The mission of the unsaved man is to love himself and try and satisfy himself. The Gospel offends human nature, because human nature loves sin, and self-righteousness.

The only Help there is, or ever will be, for any sinner is Christ Jesus Himself. Christ died for sinners, you are a sinner, that means Jesus died for you, that's for sure. Now Jesus said, "I am the Door." When you leave or enter your house, you must go through a door. When you get in or out of your car, you must go through a door. If you go to Wal-Mart or Target, you have to go through a door. If you go to a drugstore or the hospital, you have to go through a door. Doors are the access points to all the important places in your life. And if you want to get into Heaven one day, you must go through the Door of Heaven, His name is Jesus Christ, the living God who loved you and gave Himself for you. The only thing that can Help your guilty soul is to cast yourself down at Jesus' feet, and He will give you a sound mind. You need to get to the Person who can fix your sin problem.

Evolution and darwinism can't ever cover up your sins. God's all-seeing eyes can see right through your body, soul, and spirit right now (Proverbs 15:3). You have a perverse heart, and you need to depend upon Jesus Christ. Only Jesus Christ's Precious Blood can make you Right inside where no one can see, but God. Every thought of atheism is a vain thought. If you think yourself to be anything more than a mass of sin and helplessness, that is a vain thought.

You will be separated from God forever, if Jesus doesn't save you from the love of your sin. You can get all your sins forgiven right now, if you will simply come to Jesus by faith. As long you live unsaved and unforgiven, you are in a very dangerous condition, that is certain. All real faith is created in the heart by the Holy Ghost and the word of God. Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ shall be saved from the love of sin. Sin will take you farther than you want to go; Sin will keep you longer than you want to stay, and your Sin will cost you far more than you ever wanted to pay. If you are not saved from your sinful state, right now, you are in the Devil's family, you are a child of the Devil and Darkness. That's why you must be Born Again (John 3:7) out of the family of Satan and into the family of God, through simple faith in Jesus' sin-atoning blood.

Victim of Wrong Information

Every atheist and religionist is a poor Victim of wrong information, and it is a fatal tragedy. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is a solemn and serious thing - it is solid Truth. Darkness, doom, damnation, and despair is your inevitable future without Jesus Christ. You are a poor, polluted, perverse and guilty sinner; alienated from the life of God, and exposed to the wrath of God and eternal condemnation, and deserving eternal death. You are living carelessly and corruptly, neglecting God's Son. You are thirsty and bankrupt. You do not possess any good at all; you are penniless spiritually. Accept the Verdict of God's word concerning you, acknowledge you are unable to achieve any good. You have rebelled against your Creator in a deliberate and resolute fashion. You are unprepared to die. You are lost in sin, your condition is hopeless, you are trapped in your self. Your feet are running toward hell at an alarming pace. Your conscience faithfully alarms and worries you.

You cannot earn your way to Heaven. Everything has been earned for you, because of what Jesus Christ did on your behalf. Every sinner must be saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Jesus' blood alone. The complete forgiveness of sins is absolutely free. You don't get to Heaven by your works, but by the works of Jesus Christ. If think you're a good person, that is a wicked thought. To profess your own goodness (self-righteousness) is a stench in the nostrils of Almighty God. Repent of your own self-goodness, and implicitly trust in Christ's Blood and Goodness.

Lost sinner, come to your senses now - Believe the grand old truth of Eternal Redemption by the Precious Blood of Jesus, Free Justification by God’s atoning blood. Salvation is a Free Gift, for it is Priceless. The moment you wholly Trust Christ, all is clear between you and God, there is nothing unsettled, nothing to do, Jesus has paid your way. Bow low and adore the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. You are now an evil undone sinner in need of the Incarnate God who died for sinners. Every unregenerate, unconverted sinner is in great imminent danger of losing his soul forever. I will never flatter you with empty smooth religious words.

Guilty blood is now flowing through your veins; but Innocent Blood flowed through Jesus' veins. Christ loved you and gave Himself for you. Jesus was the Innocent Victim for your sins. Jesus was and is really God in human flesh, He was really and totally sinless. Jesus kept the strict and perfect divine Law perfectly. Even His enemies could find no fault in HIM. Absolute perfection was God's requirement. Jesus knew no sin, He did no sin, He was in all pointed tempted like as we are, yet without Sin. Only the Holy Spirit can alert you and open your eyes to the evil and danger of your sins. Jesus’ work on Calvary is the only possible way of salvation. Almighty God is only pleased and satisfied with Christ's blood and merits. Your soul is stained and saturated with your iniquities; only Christ's Righteousness can protect you from the Justice of God.

Darwin's smooth prescription of evolution, and the religionist’s deadly remedy of salvation by human merit is not true – they are all hellish lies that came from the mind of Satan to damn your soul. Be wise - Make the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ your soul's sole hope today. Come now - trust and worship at Jesus' blessed feet. If you die unprepared, unconverted, and unsaved, there remains nothing but a fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation for you. The Atonement did away with any need for human merit. Eternal punishment must fall upon your sins. If you die in your sins neglecting Christ’s cure, you will have to suffer that punishment. The Atonement cannot be repeated or added to by human efforts.

The Blood of Jesus Christ alone can cleanse and absolve your guilty soul from ALL SIN. None but Jesus can do helpless sinners good. Humbly plead Jesus' precious name and blood. The God of all grace poured out His own life's blood on Calvary's Cross for your guilty soul's sake. This eternal life-giving blood is the only means of escaping the fury and wrath of an offended God. The only thing that can take away human sin is God's Blood. Close now with the Blood of Jesus Christ by the grace of God through simple childlike faith in *HIM*. See John 6:47.

Moving Day

Almost everyone has experienced moving from one house to another. When relocating there's so much to do! Sometimes it’s hard to know what to tackle first. Move planning usually starts about two to three months out from your actual move date. Planning and preparing for your move helps reduce stress. Getting rid of unnecessary clutter, packing valuables, and taking a box of bare necessities that will need to get started at your new residence is always critical.

But there is different kind of move and relocation that we all must go through. One day our soul must vacate our body and enter eternity. Our souls moved into our bodies at birth and will exit at death. Our souls must move out eventually - it is inevitable. You cannot escape death. Preparing for death is prudence. God made and sustains this house of flesh we live in; He is the Landlord and we are the tenants. God made your bodily house in the womb of your mother, and He has been sustaining your body's health for years and years. There is much rent due to God for the house in which you dwell. Your life is frailer than a soap bubble or a flower and could be crushed at any moment. Man in his pride thinks he will live forever.

Many people live their lives as though they will for a thousand years. But what is your life? The Bible says, "It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." Man lay out their selfish plans for months and years; where they will retire, but they know what a day may bring forth, much less a year. If you getting ready to move, you normally get rid of a lot of unneeded junk. The same is true at death, many things that we thought we're important will be dropped immediately. When you move, you normally tell all your friends goodbye, the same is true at death - we must say farewell to earthly friends and enter into eternity.

You do not own your body, you are only residing in it for awhile. God built it and He let you live in it. Your body belongs to the Creator who built it; He sustains it, and keeps the title deed in His possession. Your body belongs to God Himself; you are God's property. He created you for His glory. Your soul was spoken into existence by Him. Your physical strength, health, and abilities were all given to you from God's gracious hand. You were fearfully and wonderfully made by the Almighty. Every vein, nerve, bone, muscle, and organ of your body was skillfully made by God alone. Your breath is in your nostrils; but the LORD keeps it there. You are a walking pile of dust maintained by the omnipotent hand of God. If God's hand of mercy was withdrawn from your bodily house, you would fall down and die immediately. Your strength and intellect have all come from the Lord Jesus Christ. Hour by hour the infinite mercy of God keeps you alive physically. You owe all you have and all you are to Jesus Christ.

You must set your house in order before you move into eternity. No one can do it for you - you yourself must go to the Landlord and settle up. You have lived in your body for years and have willfully avoided the Landlord, and you're way overdue on your rent. The Landlord has lovingly visited and knocked on the door of your heart numerous times, but you chose to ignore and avoid Him. He is willing to help you. Christ Jesus is so longsuffering and He is still willing to freely forgive your sin-debt if you will only cry out to Him for mercy.

If a person is being evicted and put out on the street, he doesn't look forward to moving. This is man dying without Christ. But if a person is moving out of a shack and into a mansion, he is longing for that day. This is a poor and needy sinner that has been saved by grace divine, and he is longing to move out of his vile body and depart and be with his King of Grace forever.

Prepare for moving day - the movers could show up in your driveway any day. Your lease in this life will soon run out. The Landlord could send you an eviction notice any day now; no one knows when they will die. There will be no hope of you resisting God's eviction notice, you will have to vacate immediately, even if the wisest doctors and best medical technology may be helping you avoid His eviction orders. The pillars of your body will start to shake, the windows will grow dark, you will expire, and your house will cave in. By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.

Sinful men cling to this mortal life for this is all they have. The Landlord reserves the right to enter and leave your house, condemn it, and even tear it down, because it is His property, not yours. But the Lord Jesus Christ, in meekness and lowliness, humbly knocks at your heart and patiently waits for you to let Him enter and save you by His free grace and dying love. The dust and filth of sin is now lying all over your floors. But the Lord will sweep your life with the broom of His law, and then wash you with His precious blood. The windows of your life are very unclean and spotted, and the light of the glorious gospel cannot enter. The sewage of sin is backed up and is polluting and killing your soul.

Set your house in order. Unless Christ enters and helps you, there is no hope for you. Unless Christ and the Holy Spirit come to your rescue, your house will remain filthy and in disarray, and will be condemned. You must go to Christ personally. He came into the world to save sinners; He died in your place. You will be not right with God until you are right with Christ. Your lease will soon run out, and your rent must be paid; but you can't afford it. You need someone with riches beyond your understanding to pay your awful debt. Christ died to PAY for your sins. Give up the key (your will) to the Landlord, let Christ in your bodily house, and let Him go where He wants. Let Him renew your soul, purge your conscience, regenerate your spirit, forgive all your sin, and save your soul immediately and forever. Remember - you must have Christ's redeeming blood on your soul when you die in order to escape the wrath of God. God's blood is applied to your soul by faith in Christ alone.

The rent on your house must be paid in full before you depart this world. You are in the arrears; your debts to God are unpaid and way overdue. Your duty and obligation to God is live a perfect life, but you have sinned many times against Him, and have fallen way short of God's perfect holiness. Every time you've sinned in your life, your sin-debt (rent) has been climbing higher and higher. You have rejected Christ, the apple of God's eye. You have lived carelessly and wasted paid all your soul's rent money on your self, sin, and Satan. Your rent is way too much for you to pay now. You must settle up with the Landlord before you move out of your body, or face going to Eternity without God. Prepare to meet thy God-flee the wrath to come. Since you're bankrupt and flat broke spiritually, you must cry out for mercy and ask the Landlord to forgive your sin-debt and blot out your sinful bills. Christ is waiting for your desperate cry for help. You need Christ's charity-you need a free hand-out from Heaven - your soul is desperate and destitute because of your sin. You cannot work enough to pay your sin-debt before you die and meet God.

Prepare for your moving day now-your departure is at hand. Please do not procrastinate and leave your house in a dilapidated state at death. Open your heart's door to Christ, turn your keys over to Him, and surrender complete possession to Him before it is too late. Don't let your house cave in on you - you don't know when you will die. Let Christ come in now and save you before it is too late. Commit your soul to Christ by faith and trust in His precious blood alone. If you die without your rent being paid, you will have to pay it forever in hell. Your sins must be paid for by death and wrath. Christ suffered that death and wrath for you; but you must choose Him, believe Him, yield to Him and receive Him. Come now, leave all your sins with Him, Trust His Blood and Rely on His Righteousness - Count On HIM alone.

Please stop rejecting and neglecting Jesus Christ; in God's eyes, this is the most heinous sin you can commit. You need Christ's holiness to enter into Heaven and dwell with God forever. Consider this - you're a sinner, and all sinners belong to Satan's family before they are born again into God's family. Satan has been judged and he will soon be sentenced to Hell and the Lake of Fire. If you are lost and belong to the devil when you die, you will go to live with Satan in hell. The time of your departure to another world could be soon. Your life may be a dirty and disorganized, your rent-bill (sin-debt) may be way behind and growing every day, but there is One Person that can cleanse your soul and prepare you to enter eternity safely - His name is Jesus. Trust in His name alone - look away from yourself, turn from trusting yourself and loving sin, and look only to the bleeding Lamb of God. Christ Jesus is alive, He is risen from the dead, and He is able to save you to the uttermost, if you call upon HIM right now.

The Gospel Message says Jesus died for your sins, He was buried, and He rose again the third day according to the scriptures. He loved you and gave Himself for you. He took the place for all the punishment (death and wrath) that your sins should receive. He paid for your sins, so you could go free – that is substitution. The Bible also says that the Lord Jesus, after He died, rose from death and is alive evermore. Today, He offers the free gift of eternal life. If you believe the Gospel Message and receive Christ as your Savior, you can have eternal life. The scriptures say, “the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Salvation from sin is a free gift. You can have a home in Heaven, forgiveness of sins, be one of God’s born again children.

Jesus didn’t die because He sinned, He died for your sins, so you could go free and not be judged and damned. The Bible says that everybody has sinned, so we must all have our sins punished. So must must make a choice - Christ or sin. If we don’t accept the punishment that Jesus went through for us in our place, we will have to be punished for our own sins in the lake of fire forever. Jesus rose from the dead and He offers you eternal life by believing the Gospel Message and receiving the Person of Christ Himself. You must call out for Him – He will heed the sinner's cry - a desperate cry for help. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13

Remember to Hit *Save*

We live in the information age, and the data we work with every day is very critical to our personal and professional lives. Have you ever been working on a document or spreadsheet for a long time, and you forget to ‘Hit Save’, and then your computer locks up or there’s a power surge/outage? This is so frustrating. All of your work is lost in the blink of an eye. The key is always save your document to the hard drive initially, and always ‘Hit Save’ after every couple of paragraphs, or every 5-10 minutes. Also, remember to save all your critical data to backup storage media on a daily or weekly basis. Today, it’s all about the information.

Likewise, many people live for years and years and the ‘Save’ button for their souls has never been hit. Most people today miss Heaven because they are taken up with things perhaps not evil in themselves, but secondary interests that keep them from God’s best. They are too busy or distracted to realize the importance of their souls. But until your soul is saved, it is in serious danger of being lost eternally. At any time you could die, and your soul would be lost forever. You may ask, “How do you ‘Hit Save’ for your soul? That’s a good question. Well, you can’t ‘Hit Save’ for your soul, you must ask another Person to do it for you, and that Person is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. He will save you once and forever if you only LET Him. Jesus Christ created your soul, He died and rose again from the dead for your soul, and He is the only One who can save your soul from eternal death and hell.

We are all sinners, we are born that way. We have a ‘sin nature’ we received from ‘Adam,’ and it causes us to rebel against the commandments of God. This rebellion provokes the wrath of God toward us. Sin leaves us in a wretched and hopeless state of misery. Sin leaves us guilty and full of shame and fear. Our conscience has warned us over and over to do the right thing, but we loved darkness rather than light, because our deeds are evil.

The Bible says while you are in your sins, you are under the wrath of God. (See John 3:36) But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Rom 5:8). Christ died for the ungodly, not the self-righteous. Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, not good people. Only bad people (sinners) can be saved from their sins. There is no hope for the self-righteous. Your good works are no good. Jesus bled for your sin; don’t reject Him.

This is the Good News of the Gospel of the Grace of God. God loved you and sent His precious Son to live a sinless life, die, and live again for you – the Just for the unjust, the Sinless for sinners, the God-Man for sinful man. God became a Man (Jesus Christ). God took on human flesh so that He could be crucified; so that He could experience what He had never experienced before – Death. The atoning work of Christ (sinless blood sacrifice) involved death, so that you could have life. Your punishment and God’s wrath was meted out on Christ, so that you could be saved from the wrath of God forever freely, without any works of our own. Jesus said, “Ye must be born again” (John 3:7) and, “Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.” (John 18:37)

The Innocent Lamb of God gave His life for the guilty. And the very moment you receive that Lamb as your Substitute; and exercise faith (heart-trust) in the Savior and His blood alone, the Lord Jesus Christ Himself will ‘Hit Save’ and your soul is safe forever by His grace, not by your works at all. You don’t have to do anything but believe on the One who has done it all for you. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. Just like you would on a couch, stretch out your soul on the Lord Jesus Christ and rest totally in His doings and sufferings. Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. But, there is such a thing as free salvation, because Jesus paid for it. You must come to Christ as a sinner on His terms, not yours. Christ is the only cure for your sin problem. Only Christ’s precious blood can settle the feud between you and God. Your conscience can only be silenced by the blood of Christ. God be merciful to me a sinner through the blood of Christ.

Two Keys

In Hebrews 13:18, the Bible says, "Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly." Prayer is so important for us to have good conscience and a good testimony; Paul, at the end of most of his epistles asked for the prayers of the saints. Years ago, Daniel the prophet was threatened with death by the authorities, but he had rather spend a night with the lions than a day without prayer - Daniel would rather die than not pray and fellowship with his God. Are we committed to prayer as Daniel was? Good ole Daniel believed in 'his' God. Daniel maintained a good conscience inwardly and a good testimony outwardly. Daniel had an adoring affection for his God first and foremost. Mark it down, Only prayers covered with Jesus' atoning blood can move the heart and hand of God. John Wesley said this, "God does nothing but in answer to prayer."

Here are the two keys to Real Christianity: A Good Conscience and a Good Testimony. We need to have a Good Conscience in all things; this means being "honest on the inside" with God and ourselves (Acts 23:1; 24:16; II Cor 1:12), and we also need have a Good Testimony – this means to live honestly in all things toward our neighbors (II Cor 8:21; Rom 12:17; I Thess 4:12; I Peter 2:12). We should be affable, kind, tenderhearted, forbearing and forgiving. Now understand - Inward honesty is most important. We should seek to be free from guile and deceit in our thoughts, words, and deeds. Most people get this backwards like the Pharisees did. They had a lot of do’s and don’ts on the outside, but no purity, sincerity, and love for God on the inside. Christianity is not just having a bunch of outward convictions and strange doctrines and conceits (Hebrews 13:9). We must ‘think honestly and purely’ or we will never have the true peace of God inwardly (Phil 4:8). We must live a prayerful, joyful, grateful life to God. Only honest and good hearts bring forth pleasing fruit to God (Luke 8:15). We should always live decently before others, and walk in wisdom toward them that are without.

A 'good and pure conscience' is a conscience that is tuned and cleansed by the Scripture of truth. When we lose our testimony and reputation before men, our service becomes vain and useless. Most of the time, long before we ever lose our 'good testimony' with man, we have lost our 'good conscience' with God. We need much more grace in our hearts daily, fresh grace every day, not just new meat in our head. Having a ‘meathead’ (Hebrews 13:9) and a carnal heart will never profit the LORD, yourself, or anyone else at all. We need more grace (James 4:6) and wisdom (James 1:5). Meat occupies many Christians' heads and they end up distracted and in the ditch. A walk with just meat and convictions will make us very 'mean, judgmental, and barren.' We need to stick with simple Christianity, a childlike faith in Jesus, a pure and gracious heart, a good conscience, a faith unfeigned - a useful life. Remember - Sin always complicates life. Continue to hold faith (toward man) and a good conscience (toward God) (I Timothy 1:19). We must have both these things in order to be true and useful in the Lord's work: inward honesty towards God (good conscience - I Timothy 1:5), and outward honesty toward man (good testimony - II Thess 2:1). As much as lieth in you, inwardly abhor sin (Rom 12:9), and outwardly avoid sin (I Thess 5:22) and stand in the true grace of God (I Pet 5:12). Many Christians chase their tails for years and years, but these two simple keys (A Good Conscience in the sight of God, and a Good Testimony in the sight of man), if used daily (Luke 9:23), will unlock the door to peace and joy for you everyday.

But [we] have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God (II Cor 4:2). Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences (II Cor 5:1).

Seek Christ, Not Self

The atheist wants freedom from Christ, and he seeks wisdom apart from God. The atheist is ever learning, but never able to come to the knowledge of the Truth, because he is a Christ rejector. The darwinist is unfulfilled and always searching for hope. But the atheist remains hopeless because he neglects and avoids The Hope - Christ Himself (I Timothy 1:1). Never ever trust your own heart, it will always deceive you. Look completely out of yourself to Christ Jesus for divine assistance now. If you need Wisdom, ask of God, The LORD gives His Wisdom liberally to all who seek *HIM*. Good for nothing, hell-deserving wretches need the Crucified and Risen Savior. There is a God, and you're not HIM.

Wisdom and truth has never come from a sinful human heart. There is no fear of God before the atheist's eyes. The atheist has lost his way, he wanders and speculates, remains hopelessly unfulfilled, and enslaved to his dirty sinful ways. The dying atheist refuses the cure, and the drowning atheist turns away from the lifeboat of Christ's Free Salvation. He would rather look to himself for the answer, he would rather trust in himself, he continually tries to create his own cure for his despair. The atheist lives out a myth, but he wakes up to Reality at death. God gives every Christ rejecting mind over to depravity. Every human heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. The atheist's primary goal is to take all shame out of sinful activity.

Never listen to your own heart. Submit to the words of God and the Holy Spirit's guidance and direction. Humanism says, "Find yourself, seek wholeness in yourself, you need to know who you are, you have all the best answers within you." But without Christ the living God, you can do Nothing. Abide in Christ's words, focus on His Truth, Look to His Blood and Righteousness, and the Truth shall set you free. If you search your own heart, you will be deceived, that's for sure. God abandons you to a depraved mind when you ignore Him. The atheistic mind that forgets God becomes distorted, self-centered, and perverted. Atheism is the bottom of the sewer of human depravity.

*Unrighteousness - despising whatever God loves, and loving whatever God hates
*Fornication - sexual immorality of the mind or body
*Wickedness - totally bent toward corruption in every way
*Covetousness/Greed/Idolatry - grasping for what you don't have, craving more of anything and everything. "I want more!"
*Maliciousness - vicious delight in harming others, desire for revenge
*Envy - grasping for what someone else has, leads to murder (Matthew 27:17), desire for other's position, popularity, wealth, prosperity
*Murder - inward hatred of someone that sometimes leads to taking their life
*Debate - affection for arguing
*Deceit - luring others with sinful bait, pretending to be moral but secretly evil
*Malignity - habitually vicious toward others as a way of life, rude and crude
*Whispering - ruins lives in secret, use the tongue to hurt others
*Backbiting - secret defamation, hurting others' character and reputation with the tongue behind their backs
*Slanderers - public defamation, speak evil of another person
*Haters of God - public attempt to ruin the reputation of God and His Son, deniers of God, enemies to God by their evil works
*Despiteful - mixing of pride with hurtful words and physical brutality, bullying
*Proud - arrogance concerning one's learning or eloquence, the pedestal personality that looks down on others
*Boasters - the dialect of the arrogant, to speak highly one's self, the chief subject of their conversation is themselves
*Inventors of evil things - commitment to corrupt creativity in order to gain money or lead others away from God, sinfully innovative, displaying, glamorizing, and legalizing sinful activity, and encouraging lust; the inventing of evil schemes, philosophies, and principles
*Disobedient to parents - refusing to accept God's authority and influence; your parents are the first symbol of authority in your life; if you disobey your parents, you will disobey God
*Without understanding - a learning disability to understand spiritual things, no understanding of God's nature or worship, of things divine or moral
*Covenant-breakers - untrustworthy at marriage, business, and government; no regard to private or public contracts
*Without natural affection - unloving, between a parent and child, husband and wife, unappreciative of the family structure; no family bonds
*Implacable - unreconcilable, unreasonable, unforgiving
*Unmerciful - ruthless, heartless, without compassion or pity to those in distress

The atheistic mind becomes reprobate - so corrupt that it is an untrustworthy guide in moral decision making. The insane atheist knows the judgment of God, they reject Christ willfully, they stubbornly violate their conscience, and give hearty approval to those who practice sin.

The rejection of Christ always leads to an acceptance of sin, the acceptance of sin leads to an approval of sin, the approval of sin finally degenerates into the applause for sin.

When you justify your own sin, that is wicked for sure, but to approve of and encourage, and take pleasure when others sin is immeasurably heinous. They love to watch violence, pornography, deceit, and crime being committed. Sinners band together around their common perversions and abominable idolatries.

You are a sinner, corrupt and evil, in need of the living Savior who died for the guilty. Every day you prove the fact that you're a sinner, for you sin in thought, word, and deed. Cast away your excuses, confess you are sin-full to God, acknowledge your specific sins, submit and repent at Christ's feet, turn to Christ Jesus Himself, trust His words and Blood, receive HIM into your innermost being now. Simply Trust His Atoning Blood Now.

The Creator

The atheistic man loses the value of human life. The atheist values animal life (eagle eggs), more than human life (babies in the womb). Man either rules nature, or he is ruled by nature. Atheism focuses on human achievement, but not moral character. The atheist abandons God and His moral direction found in the Bible, and then he becomes a slave to perverse and destructive behavior. The atheist refuses a relationship with the Creator. When a man refuses to honor and thank his Creator, he wanders into spiritual darkness and fills his mind with vain speculations without any satisfaction or meaning. Atheist seek after college degrees, but not morality and purity. Evolution undercuts morality. This world teaches, "treat animals like human beings, and human being like animals."

The atheist says, "You just evolved, you're just another animal, you've just evolved a little farther along the food chain, than the ape at the zoo. Truth is a personal creation, as long you believe it; Salvation is universal, Judgment is non-existent. Believe what you want to believe, behave how you want to behave. Man evolved, and God is not involved, there are no moral restraints." Without Christ, you are facing a terrible future in Eternity (See Matthew 7:13; Revelation 20:15). Sex addicts and food addicts crave things that can never satisfy. The human heart craves everything but the Creator. Atheists value animal life, more than human life. They say, you can treat people like animals, but you should treat animals like people. Atheists seek to the needs of nature, more than the needs of their own soul. Evolution is seared into the mind of the atheist in the public school system and then in college.

Jesus can now give you freedom from your sins, but not freedom in your sins. Jesus is the Oasis for the thirsty sinner in the desert of this present evil world. Jesus is the cold water of everlasting life that your parched broken soul desperately needs (John 4:14; Proverbs 25:25). What will you choose today? Your Sin or the Savior? Degrading indecent passions is the fruit and end of atheism. Every atheist's mind is full of immoral chaos and confusion. Sin is like saltwater, it only makes you thirstier and thirstier, and slowly kills you.  Your Sins only have one Remedy - the atoning blood of God's Son - The Lord Jesus Christ.

Scorning arrogance leads to the Lake of Fire. Smart alecks wind up in Hell where they belong. All sin comes naturally, just like weeds in your garden. By nature you have a desperately wicked heart that you cannot cure. The last person in the world you ever want to trust is yourself. You have an unbelievable ability of alibiing and rationalizing your sins away. Men naturally defend and make excuses for their vile habits. You have an evil nature within you - the Bible calls it Sin. The Bible condemns immoral behavior. Without Christ, your eternal destruction is inevitable. The greatest loss is when you lose your soul in Eternity. Be wise - Believe the Bible, Receive its Author - Christ Jesus.

Man is not smart enough to stop earthquakes, hurricanes, or tornados, or even find a cure for the common cold, but they want to try to get to Mars, for some reason. Man can't even the balance the Budget, but they will continue to waste money to go to Mars and collect rocks and soil samples to try and prove they came from monkeys. Man is so stubborn, they will spend trillions of dollars to disprove Genesis 1:1, but they can't. Most atheists are educated beyond their intelligence. Wise up, you're a sinner, you're in a mess, you will soon die, you will meet your Maker, and unless your sins have been forgiven and put away by your Maker's Blood (John 1:3; Colossians 1:14), you will perish and spend Eternity separated from Him in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 20:15).

God has created everything (John 1:3); God sustains everything. God owns everything. God keeps the Earth going, not the EPA. God really spoke via the Holy Scriptures, and He really means what He says. God took on the form of man in the person of Jesus of Nazareth and paid your sin's awful price with His own blood. Man rejects a personal loving sin-forgiving God - Jesus Christ. Man replaces other things for God as worship. The materialist longs after things. The proud man longs after power, position, prestige, and popularity. Man is a spiritual being with an immortal soul. When you die, you are just getting started. You will live forever somewhere. Simply trust the Crucified Creator's Blood now. Christ Jesus the Creator is blessed forever and ever.  Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth.
