For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible.

Matthew 24:24

"If that were possible"

Those are comforting words for today as I listen to Christians talking about being offended when Jesus' name is spoken in prayer at the inauguration ("Separation of church and state" and "It would offend nonChristians")

Those are reassuring words when I hear Christians talk about the "rights" of homosexuals to marry, the "rights" of women to choose when they will give birth (and therefore should have access to abortion).

According to the Lord Jesus the elect will not be deceived about who their Lord is, and from where salvation comes. But, Jesus did warn that His "little ones" CAN be led astray, Matthew 18:6But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

It seems there will be some answering to do for those who convinced many of God's "little ones" that Barack Obama would be the agent of godly change.

Here is a recent post from a brother in Christ who has been watching closely:

"For those say they are Christian, the test has now come regarding how you view your God. Is your God a passive bearded grandpa who has no involvement in the affairs of men? Or is your God one Who, as He is invited, will actively bless a nation, and set that nation apart from others? And will the same God, when He is actively dis-invited, let that nation descend into self obliteration?

"Is being 'Christian' supposed to be the key to national prosperity because of our active relationship being submitted to the God of the Bible? Or is being "Christian" just an opinion of life morality, and life philosophy?"

God continues to be Who He has always been: the righteous judge of nations. Time and again, God has allowed the sin of a nation to "reach its fullness," and then sent another nation to as a "scourge" and a judgement.

What sins has God deemed so "depraved," so "unclean" that they "profane the Name of Your God"? What sins has God called "abomination" and "perversion"?

What sins has God become so passionate about as to say this?

"Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, for by all these the nations I am driving out before you have become unclean, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants...For everyone who does any of these abominations, the persons who do them shall be cut off from among their people."
(Leviticus 18:24-25, 29)
.
Essentially, there are only two sins. The first comes under the category of sexual perversion: incest, homosexuality and bestiality. The second comes under the category of killing children by sacrificing them to Molech.
.
Sexual perversion and killing one's own children. Homosexual marriage and abortion. And incest, if you are following the news, is on the rise world wide.

Change We Never Imagined (excerpts)
.
"...Literally within minutes after [Barack Obama] took the oath of office, the official White House webpage was updated – under the heading of "The Agenda: Civil Rights" – to detail his wholesale "support f or the LGBT (homosexual activist) community." His stated plans include the following:
.
"* Defeating all state and federal constitutional efforts to defend the millennia-old definition of natural marriage from attacks by "gay marriage" activists.
.
"* Repealing the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) signed into law by Bill Clinton in 1996. This is the only line of defense keeping all 50 states from being forced to recognize so-called 'same-sex marriages' from extremely liberal states like Massachusetts and Connecticut.
.
"* Repealing the military's 'don't ask, don't tell' policy despite the fact that the vast majority of military commanders and personnel say it will dangerously disrupt unit cohesion and troop morale.
.
"* Passing constitutionally dubious and discriminatory 'hate crimes' legislation, granting homosexuals and cross-dressers exclusive rights – denied other Americans – based on sexual behaviors that are deviant, changeable, and widely regarded both here and around the world as immoral.
.
"* Passing the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) which would force business owners (religious and otherwise) to abandon traditional values relative to sexual morality under penalty of law.
.
"* Creating intentionally motherless and fatherless homes and sexually confusing untold thousands of children by expanding gay adoption."

I could not be more heavy hearted.

In just three days our new president has set into motion

1) The rapid unraveling of what little is left in terms of societal fabric in African nations (what a betrayal, considering Obama’s heritage) by giving Planned Parenthood the support Bush denied them

2) The transfer of suspected terrorists to American soil, and the release of suspected terrorists to lead new Al Qaeda cells (Check last week's New York Times headlines)

3) Goals to be translated into laws which will render every evangelical church as illegal (re: homosexual “rights.”) The first punishment will be to revoke tax exempt status. The next will be to dismantle that church’s leadership structure. The third will be to dismantle that particular denomination.

Soon enough American believers will get what they have been praying for – believers full of the Spirit, living by faith, and many who will now finally come to personally know the Lord Jesus Christ and be known by Him. We will have the revival we longed for. Because the only conditions that foster revival are a broken spirit and a contrite heart. Now we will truly be brothers with our Chinese brethren.

Brace yourselves!!

  1. Nice connection with the gay marriage and abortion issues. In the name of Civil Liberties, our new saviour will do as much damage as the kings that Israel demanded from the Lord. And the Lord will set back and watch as the people lay in the bed they just made. All the more glad, I am, that I am not of this world, and life is devoted to leading others to an intimate relationship with the True Saviour.
