In recent days, America’s Supreme Court has taken it upon themselves to
overstep their bounds of authority—using the bully pulpit of “Judicial
Tyranny” not just to interpret law but to re-write law itself. But the
problem (this time) with their massive judicial over-reach is that they
decided that they know more about the laws that govern men than Almighty
God.
So in open defiance to the Living Lord, they have
effectively rejected God’s interpretation of what marriage should be and
they have inserted their own perverted interpretation of God’s most
sacred institution.
I am a firm Believer, (as were the Founders of
this nation) that our world consists of certain Undeniable Truths,
certain Inalienable Rights, and that these rights were given by God for
the lasting endurance and prosperity of mankind. I further believe that
“Marriage” as being defined as being “BETWEEN ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN as
being one of them!
Now if you happen to be one of those misguided
people in our world who have been duped into believing that there are no
Moral Absolutes of Right and Wrong, but that in every area of life you
can simply apply your own version of “Moral Relativism” and “Situational
Ethics” and everything will work out just fine, then it’s evident that
you have been sipping way too much of the Kool-Aid!
Rest assured,
everything that any of us say or do, every decision that we will ever
make, they all have consequences, and many of those consequences are
inescapable, and unavoidable, no matter how warped or twisted one’s view
on reality might be!
As concerning America, I believe that if we
do not soon reverse course and turn back towards God instead of away
from Him, I fear that we shall soon cease to exist as the great nation
that we were once known to be. God has given us some very credible
warning signs, and these are found written in His Word. And I do not
take these lightly, for I’ve read the Book, and the warning signs of our
impending demise are unmistakable!
Take, for example the passage
of Scripture found in Jeremiah 39. The time is 6th century B.C. For over
700 years, Israel had enjoyed the blessings of God upon their nation.
King Zedekiah now leads the nation as Babylon’s puppet king because the
Babylonians have subdued the Jewish nation.
God has allowed this
travesty to happen because His chosen people had rebelled against Him,
accepting idolatry and all the evils associated with it (including child
sacrifice as well as every manner of sexual perversion imaginable).
Sadly, these same sins have become the “Accepted Norm” of our
society-at-large (abortion, adultery, homosexuality, etc.).
King
Zedekiah decides to rebel against his oppressors, but Jeremiah the
prophet warns the king to honor the oath he had made to the Babylonians,
for God will not deliver the nation because of their willful
embracement of so many sins. Zedekiah refuses to heed the prophet’s
warnings and Nebuchadnezzar’s army besieges the city.
For 18
months King Zedekiah is protected by Jerusalem’s fortifications, but
with the passing of each day, the enemy draws nearer. Finally, in the
4th month (the month of Tammuz) on the 9th day of the month, “THE WALL
IS BREACHED” and the Babylonian armies overwhelm the city. They burn it
with fire, destroying the temple; carrying off much of the populace into
slavery, slaying all the leaders, blinding the king and then carrying
him off to die in a foreign land.
Maybe you are thinking, “Well,
what does this have to do with America?” So let me tell you. On the
Hebrew calendar, the date mentioned is “the 9th of Tammuz.” But if you
were to translate that date to our modern day calendar, you will find
that this date is June 26.
So here it is. Exactly two thousand, six
hundred, and one years after the walls of Jerusalem were breached, on
the 26th of June 2015, right here in America, 5 black robed, unelected
Supreme Court judges made the choice for this nation to spit upon the
precepts of Almighty God as they (unconstitutionally) redefined
marriage. This date is just too precise for this to be a mere
co-incident!
Now, I fear that because of this utter disregard for
God’s Laws, America’s Walls Have Also Been Breached” and this nation is
about to experience firsthand, what it is like to exist without the Hand
of God’s protection to halt the judgments that are now heading our way.
We are told that because homosexuality is a civil rights issue, no one
can discriminate against it. But let’s be truthful here: Homosexuality
is not a civil rights issue…IT IS A SIN ISSUE! And if we will not call
sin what God calls sin, even God cannot help us! America take note: “The
permissive views of our current society are not sufficient grounds for
denouncing Divine Law!”
The Bible is crystal clear in its
condemnation of the practice of homosexuality. It describes such an
immoral act in the same context as incest and bestiality. To accept any
one of these sins is on the same level as accepting them all!
Because a few were offended, the Bible was taken out of our public
schools…because a few were offended prayer was next removed. Because
there were some women who were offended because they could not kill
their babies before they were born, abortion suddenly became the law of
the land…And now, marriage has been perverted and redefined so as to not
offend those who lust after living a perverted lifestyle…But What Are
We Going To Do About Offending God?
America be warned! One day soon
God is going to say, “Enough is Enough” and judgment will most
assuredly fall, for God will always uphold the precepts of His Word.
So how do we “REPAIR THE BREACH?” How do we restore the protection of
God’s hand upon our land once more? … “If my people, which are called by
my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn
from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive
their sin, and will heal their land.” (II Chronicles 7:14)…TRUE AND
GENUINE REVIVAL!
Just a Thought,
Pastor Ken Jones
