We are being told directly and indirectly that this is "the age of enlightenment" where the freedom of expression is not bound by "old folksy traditions" and outdated standards of morality based on a nonexistent deity who would limit our rights to be what we want to be.

Like the Dead Sea, where waters of a once pristine river find their way to a pool of detestable, lifeless corruption, this darkness seems to point its way from all directions ultimately into a cesspool of sexual immorality that is condemned by the God of Holy Scripture. The sexual revolution that is a constant reminder in current events tells us that homosexuality is good and wholesome, and everyone should embrace it as normal, even to be included in its practice. G****r identity is no longer readily recognized by the apparent physical condition of a person, but parents are to let the child decide what "he or she" wants to be. Or, should I say, what "they" want to be?

School boards across the nation are struggling with bathroom rights for "t***s-g****rs" and dress codes that allow girls to have more physical exposure, if they want to; and boys can wear makeup, if they want to. On the other hand, if the enticing appeal of a female results in a male's active attention, as she evidently desires, he is charged with "sexual harassment" or rape, if it goes that far.

But what does God say about this sexual confusion and its ultimate end? There can be no misinterpretation of Romans 1:18-32:

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the t***h in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man-and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

"Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the t***h of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

"For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

"And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, h**ers of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them."

The previous discussion in no way has exhausted full coverage of the topic, for it seems to be the root of most, if not all, of the "enlightenments" our modern culture would have us believe we now have embraced.

Related to that is the gigantic fight to hold onto the right of a******n as a woman's choice. It is "pro-choice" or "pro-life" that is the issue in e******ns. One of the elements of darkness that is overshadowing the issue is this: If the 60 million or more a******ns since Roe V. Wade in 1973 had not been performed, those people would have been working and paying into the dwindling Social Security fund so that it would not be facing looming bankruptcy. It is absurd to hang onto an excuse that the woman's health was at risk for every one of them. It is more obvious that it is merely a manner of birth control, in most cases. (Do you see how that issue dovetails into the sexual revolution trend?)

It is also interesting how well this elimination of 60 million or more, just in America, fits into the intention of the New World Order proponents to effect the reduction of the world's population to a billion or less individuals in order to better control them. That is, if their plans come to pass.

Solomon wrote, in Proverbs 9:10, "Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom," and in Proverbs 8:13, "Fear of the Lord is to h**e evil." The indictment of the Psalmist in Psalm 36:1: "Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts. They have no fear of God at all."

John says, "...God's light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil" (John 3:19). Isaiah labeled his generation of Israelites as those who "call evil good and good evil" (Isaiah 5:20), and there has been no improvement over all the generations of the world's people ever since. Look at the evidence in this time in America. Intent on lawlessness seems to be like a shroud of darkness upon the land.

In the political scenario today, the left-those self-acclaimed intellectuals who have thought themselves wise, as mentioned in the quotation from Romans 1:18-32 above-are desperately seeking to destroy President Trump and reverse his policies that have turned the nation around from the destruction obviously planned. Whether or not they are knowingly intending such actions is not a reason to excuse their behavior, for it seems to be the basic theory of the l*****ts.

They say they want to impeach Trump on anything that will work without impacting them directly, then raise taxes on all people, and cancel the provisions that have returned factories and opened up the economy to the United States. That would result in many more people without jobs and sending them back to food stamps and welfare. But they hope to get their v**es for such "benefits."

Let's be clear on this: Donald Trump is not a man of God, but it is apparent he is God's man for this hour! If there is any reality of what is right and what is wrong in the whole world today, his opposition is vividly displaying those contrasting ideologies in their collective embrace of all that is unlawful and without moral integrity. It is as Jesus described the opposition to His offer in John 10:10:

"The thief does not come except to steal, and to k**l, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

But do not respond to this quote that I am saying everything of President Trump's changes of direction for the nation are holy and righteous. Just as with an individual, repentance at the national level is not instant and without struggle.

The condemnation from the Psalms and in Romans 3:18 is that "there is no fear of God before their eyes." In the prophet Ezekiel's account of the anger of God upon the Israelites and His promise of a resulting judgment, he ends the many declarations from the Lord with these words: "Thus shall they know that I am the Lord God!" Ours is a culture that has written God out of its consideration as a viable entity, yet He is Sovereign of the Universe, the Creator, as Psalm 90:2 says:

"Before the mountains were brought forth or ever You had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God!"

The Scripture says in Psalm 75:6-8 that God sets one up and puts down another for the purpose of his judgment to come. Jesus prophesied that he would come to take His own to be with Him as the Day of the Lord begins with its judgments. In Luke 17:26-37 He says it will be a time of a surging economy and social well-being, not in a distressed, grinding down economy such as that of the Obama administration and that of the stated intention of the Hillary Clinton reign.

Jesus said, "I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life" (John 8:12).

When the Rapture occurs and Jesus comes for His own "as a thief in the night" and in the "twinkling of an eye," the promise to believers is that written in 1 Thessalonians 5:4:

"But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief."

Very good post. As a Christian, I commend you! But, just a warning...you will be slammed by the unsaved ( which includes the we're all gonna get there bunch, unbelievers, atheists, unsaved sinners, and those who are trying to get to heaven by 'their own way'). On the other hand, like me, you probably don't give a hoot if they do.

I believe the American people have woke up and are seeing the outright lies the liberals have been putting forth. Not only the liberals but the media as well, no need to lie just ignore the story completely and hope it goes away. That blue wave is going away that the democrats promised. Are the republicans perfect, hell no but their heads and shoulders over the democrats.

That would result in many more people without jobs and sending them back to food stamps and welfare. But they hope to get their v**es for such "benefits."

Let's be clear on this: Donald Trump is not a man of God, but it is apparent he is God's man for this hour! If there is any reality of what is right and what is wrong in the whole world today, his opposition is vividly displaying those contrasting ideologies in their collective embrace of all that is unlawful and without moral integrity. It is as Jesus described the opposition to His offer in John 10:10:

"The thief does not come except to steal, and to k**l, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

But do not respond to this quote that I am saying everything of President Trump's changes of direction for the nation are holy and righteous. Just as with an individual, repentance at the national level is not instant and without struggle.

The condemnation from the Psalms and in Romans 3:18 is that "there is no fear of God before their eyes." In the prophet Ezekiel's account of the anger of God upon the Israelites and His promise of a resulting judgment, he ends the many declarations from the Lord with these words: "Thus shall they know that I am the Lord God!" Ours is a culture that has written God out of its consideration as a viable entity, yet He is Sovereign of the Universe, the Creator, as Psalm 90:2 says:

"Before the mountains were brought forth or ever You had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God!"

The Scripture says in Psalm 75:6-8 that God sets one up and puts down another for the purpose of his judgment to come. Jesus prophesied that he would come to take His own to be with Him as the Day of the Lord begins with its judgments. In Luke 17:26-37 He says it will be a time of a surging economy and social well-being, not in a distressed, grinding down economy such as that of the Obama administration and that of the stated intention of the Hillary Clinton reign.

Jesus said, "I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life" (John 8:12).

When the Rapture occurs and Jesus comes for His own "as a thief in the night" and in the "twinkling of an eye," the promise to believers is that written in 1 Thessalonians 5:4:

"But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief."

One error Jack, you have no way of knowing, for a fact, that Trump isn't a Christian. Only God knows. What is obvious is Trump loves our country, his fellow citizens, and the rule of law. Be careful judging others my brother. Trump is producing some wonderful fruit that no one else has been able to do in generations. None of us are perfect. Including you and me. Most of his cabinet start the day, as a group, with prayer. Otherwise a great post.

Like the Dead Sea, where waters of a once pristine river find their way to a pool of detestable, lifeless corruption, this darkness seems to point its way from all directions ultimately into a cesspool of sexual immorality that is condemned by the God of Holy Scripture. The sexual revolution that is a constant reminder in current events tells us that homosexuality is good and wholesome, and everyone should embrace it as normal, even to be included in its practice. G****r identity is no longer readily recognized by the apparent physical condition of a person, but parents are to let the child decide what "he or she" wants to be. Or, should I say, what "they" want to be?

School boards across the nation are struggling with bathroom rights for "t***s-g****rs" and dress codes that allow girls to have more physical exposure, if they want to; and boys can wear makeup, if they want to. On the other hand, if the enticing appeal of a female results in a male's active attention, as she evidently desires, he is charged with "sexual harassment" or rape, if it goes that far.

But what does God say about this sexual confusion and its ultimate end? There can be no misinterpretation of Romans 1:18-32:

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the t***h in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man-and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

"Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the t***h of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

"For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

"And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, h**ers of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them."

The previous discussion in no way has exhausted full coverage of the topic, for it seems to be the root of most, if not all, of the "enlightenments" our modern culture would have us believe we now have embraced.

Related to that is the gigantic fight to hold onto the right of a******n as a woman's choice. It is "pro-choice" or "pro-life" that is the issue in e******ns. One of the elements of darkness that is overshadowing the issue is this: If the 60 million or more a******ns since Roe V. Wade in 1973 had not been performed, those people would have been working and paying into the dwindling Social Security fund so that it would not be facing looming bankruptcy. It is absurd to hang onto an excuse that the woman's health was at risk for every one of them. It is more obvious that it is merely a manner of birth control, in most cases. (Do you see how that issue dovetails into the sexual revolution trend?)

It is also interesting how well this elimination of 60 million or more, just in America, fits into the intention of the New World Order proponents to effect the reduction of the world's population to a billion or less individuals in order to better control them. That is, if their plans come to pass.

Solomon wrote, in Proverbs 9:10, "Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom," and in Proverbs 8:13, "Fear of the Lord is to h**e evil." The indictment of the Psalmist in Psalm 36:1: "Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts. They have no fear of God at all."

John says, "...God's light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil" (John 3:19). Isaiah labeled his generation of Israelites as those who "call evil good and good evil" (Isaiah 5:20), and there has been no improvement over all the generations of the world's people ever since. Look at the evidence in this time in America. Intent on lawlessness seems to be like a shroud of darkness upon the land.

In the political scenario today, the left-those self-acclaimed intellectuals who have thought themselves wise, as mentioned in the quotation from Romans 1:18-32 above-are desperately seeking to destroy President Trump and reverse his policies that have turned the nation around from the destruction obviously planned. Whether or not they are knowingly intending such actions is not a reason to excuse their behavior, for it seems to be the basic theory of the l*****ts.

We can speculate the ultimate outcome of America. As Christians our, our generation drifts nearer the end of the church age and our marriage supper with the g***m (the Son of God).
Recently read a survey given to millennials and a question " Do you believe the Bible is authoritive"? 96% said no, also no "Is there a God". 96%? Allow that number to sink in for a minute while considering America's future Congressman/Woman, Senator's, Governor, Mayor, city council, Judges........ Another dark fact is about the same percentage departure from four years in our higher halls of learning an extreme left liberal or l*****t viewing humanism and a moral code if it feels good do it religion.
I lean towards God's blessings on America because of the Christians living in America (ever decreasing numbers of Christians in America). Trump, God's man of the hour after two thousand years moving the embassy to Jerusalem falls into the prophetic among many other pro Israel and God's chosen people actions, as a result of America blessing Israel God is blessing America.
Were I see Christians in God's prophetic time table, when God does close the door on the church age all bets are off seeing any blessings flowing onto America. It wouldn't surprise me to see a dollar collapse this side of of the church age closing. I might even suggest God's blessings on America calm the violent waters of the world's economy (temporarily) allowing God's prophetic puzzle pieces to come into place for the Jewish temple and seven year peace plan to closer align.

God Bless

Recently read a survey given to millennials and a question " Do you believe the Bible is authoritive"? 96% said no, also no "Is there a God". 96%? Allow that number to sink in for a minute while considering America's future Congressman/Woman, Senator's, Governor, Mayor, city council, Judges........ Another dark fact is about the same percentage departure from four years in our higher halls of learning an extreme left liberal or l*****t viewing humanism and a moral code if it feels good do it religion.
I lean towards God's blessings on America because of the Christians living in America (ever decreasing numbers of Christians in America). Trump, God's man of the hour after two thousand years moving the embassy to Jerusalem falls into the prophetic among many other pro Israel and God's chosen people actions, as a result of America blessing Israel God is blessing America.
Were I see Christians in God's prophetic time table, when God does close the door on the church age all bets are off seeing any blessings flowing onto America. It wouldn't surprise me to see a dollar collapse this side of of the church age closing. I might even suggest God's blessings on America calm the violent waters of the world's economy (temporarily) allowing God's prophetic puzzle pieces to come into place for the Jewish temple and seven year peace plan to closer align.

God Bless

One error Jack, you have no way of knowing, for a fact, that Trump isn't a Christian. Only God knows. What is obvious is Trump loves our country, his fellow citizens, and the rule of law. Be careful judging others my brother. Trump is producing some wonderful fruit that no one else has been able to do in generations. None of us are perfect. Including you and me. Most of his cabinet start the day, as a group, with prayer. Otherwise a great post.



Your right I don't have a way to know "other than by fruits". I personally believe Dr. Dopsons story of his life long Christian friend reporting that Trump got on his knees with her and went from Donald Trump to baby Christian Donald Trump. I suggest that many Christians are not "men of God" defining a man of God in terms of their walk with God, or the Christian Luke warm at best.
God Bless

Words do have power, your correct in stating.

James 3:1-12
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. For we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body. If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! ...
