Americas Falling Morality.
Americas Falling Morality.
2 Corinthians 11:13-11:15
Americas Falling Morality. Morals in America have been on the down-cline in the past 20 years. Today we read of sex scandles from Catholic Priest, one right after another. Presbyterian Churches are considering, embracing gays as Ministers, Episcopalian Church accepts gays as Priest, and will vote on making Bishops out of them, Music has gone down hill with, cursing, vulgariety and even the movies of today are not worth watching. Even some of the news programs have gone the way of more entertainment for adults than actually reporting the news. Childrens books are coming out embraceing the idea that homo-sexuality is good. Television shows being brodcast that show girls trying to find out who the father of their baby is and laughting about it. ?O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.? So what are we surounded by today? Adulteries, Fornications, Murders, Theves, Covetousness, Wickedness, Deceit, Boasters, Pride, Blasphemers, Unthankful, Unholy, Lasciviousness, an Evil eye, & Foolishness. Phi 3:2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. [A cutting off; a false circumcision.People using as few words as possible to give the necessary information, or compressed in order to be brief.] [Ref; Phi 3:2 -

And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Therefore it is no great thing if his{Satans} ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. These are the false apostles of Christ.
[Ref;2Co 11:13 -
false: 2Co_11:15, 2Co_2:17, 2Co_4:2; Mat_25:24; Act_15:1, Act_15:24, Act_20:30; Rom_16:18; Gal_1:7, Gal_2:4, Gal_4:17; Gal_6:12; Eph_4:14; Phi_1:15, Phi_1:16; Col_2:4, Col_2:8; 1Ti_1:4-7, 1Ti_4:1-3, 1Ti_6:3-5; 2Ti_2:17-19, 2Ti_3:5-9, 2Ti_4:3, 2Ti_4:4; 2Pe_2:1-3; 1Jo_2:18, 1Jo_4:1; 2Jo_1:7-11; Jud_1:4; Rev_2:2, Rev_2:9, Rev_2:20, Rev_19:20
deceitful: Phi_3:2; Tit_1:10, Tit_1:11] The down fall of ethics and morals must be blamed on our selves, allowing our Government to take away Jesus out of our schools and churches such as these, Some Catholics, Some Presbyterians & Some Episcopalians, for denighing the authority of Gods word, making good evil and evil good. Trying to councel a young man on lifestyles I recieved this letter from Him, ? This is my response to Rev.Anthony R.Smith
Sorry you lost me after the first paragraph of your copy and past of the bible.. YAWN!!! Blah, blah, blah going to hell yeah right!! You can pray for me light a candle what ever. The religious right wingers might even have things their way right now, but I see things changing for the better. More and more people are wising up to all this, and are seeing that Homosexuality is neither a sin nor a life style, its just who we are, not what we have CHOSEN TO BE!You might set the bible down and do some reading from PFLAG.? You might be wondering what my answer was to him, this was it, ?Weather you believe or not is not the issue, the point is sense you have heard the truth you are now held accountable for it.? These children are learning these things from many so called ministers of God and from television shows. I was unable to turn him around because of these false apostles, enemies of the cross of Christ. Many ministers try to push God on people, this is wrong. After we deliever the message of truth, then it becomes a matter between them and God. Eze 3:11 And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.[Forbear,To cease; to let alone; to be silent.]
No wonder we are involved in unwinable wars, children on drugs, gangs becoming normal in our life. Our nations boarders unsafe, anti-christian churches flourishing in our neighborhoods, earthquakes, fires, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes becoming active all over the world, hunger, drought, disease and fear of a pandemic{Epidemic over a wide geographic area and affecting a large proportion of the population.} Phi 3:18-19; (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) Those that are changing the word of God into a lie will answer for their deeds. Not only what they have done to themselves but for what they have, are and will do to others that follow after their unrightiousness. The blood is upon their hands. Mat 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Mat 13:15 For this people?s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. Men today are after what they don?t earn, they crave other peoples possessions, they seek noterity and fame. They seek to justify themselves by the amount of money and popularity they have, not worrying about the effect that they are having on others and not caring. 2Ti 4:3-4; ?For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.?
