The Sin Of Too Much Facebook And Cellphone Texting

BE NOT DECEIVED

EVIL COMMUNICATIONS CORRUPT GOOD MANNERS

AWAKE TO RIGHTEOUSNESS AND SIN NOT

FOR SOME HAVE NOT THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD

I SPEAK THIS TO YOUR SHAME

     Today, Brother Bob asks my friends a question? Are you taking too much time to gossip on facebook and text on your cellphones? Notice the warning pictured above that says at 1 Corinthians 15:33-34 Be not deceived; Evil communications corrupt good manners (Too much evil gossip communications on facebook and cellphone texts corrupt good manners and lull billions of people to sleep). Jesus told people to wake up from the gossip of texting and facebook in the next verse saying Awake to righteousness and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God (This is saying wake up to righteousness who is Jesus who wants us to witness and win lost souls to the Lord Jesus because some have not the knowledge of God). 

     In other words, we all have to tell ourselves to stop texting and looking at facebook too much because we need to look around and witness to billions of lost sinners around us on this earth.  Because we text on cellphones too much and gossip on facebook about nothing too much, some have not the knowledge of God and go to hell because people fail to witness Jesus to sinners. Proverbs 11:30 tells us The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise. James 5:20 says Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and  shall hide a multitude of sins.

     Texting and facebook is not bad, but too much texting and facebook is bad. The bible tells us to not be overcharged (too much) with the cares of this life (texting and facebook).  Notice that Luke 21:34 says And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. 

     Friends everywhere reading this, take some time to stop looking at your cellphones and facebook, and tell people all over this earth to get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, make Jesus their God, and daily believe the gospel that Jesus died for them on the cross, was buried, and rose again. Take some time to stop looking at your cellphones and facebook, and notice the fatherless orphans and the widows in their affliction that need our help. James 1:27 tells us Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

     Think about this; Today most people that ride buses and dine in restaurants are constantly looking down at their cellphones and facebook and ignore the people around them. This is a trick of the devil who wants people to be too busy gossiping on their cellphones and facebook, while no one witnessses Jesus to billions of lost souls on this earth. Jesus said at Luke 21:28 instead of constantly looking down while you text and watch facebook on your cellphones, Look up and lift up your heads; for your redemption (Jesus) draweth nigh.

     Friends everywhere, do you realize that most of the electronic communications today on the internet on facebook, youtube, twitter, and instagram through cellphones, iphones, ipods, emails, and text messages display pornography, perversion, and violence. Currently 26% of all websites are obscene. Therefore saints we must be careful when we use any electronic communication to only view images and texts about our Lord Jesus. Again, note that I'm saying too much facebook and texting is bad; Facebook and texting is good if not overused and can be used to save souls and lift up our Lord Jesus. 

     Pictured above we see that 2 Corinthians 6:17 warns us Wherefore, come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And be like King David at Psalm 101:3 and say I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes. In other words, don't look at any filthy communication or trash text on a cellphone or facebook. Instead like King David at Psalm 16:8 say I have set the Lord (The Word of God) always before me; because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

IF YOU KNOW A WEBSITE OR TEXT HAS EVIL COMMUNICATIONS

DON'T LOOK AT IT;

IN OTHER WORDS

You don't have to lift up the lid on a sewer

to know that it stinks inside 

There's a good sandwich in every garbage dumpster

but I'm not gonna jump in to find it

     And look at this amazing warning stated by Paul at Romans 16:19 that says For our obedience is come abroad unto all men; I am glad therefore on your behalf, but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple (defined as unmixed) concerning evil. In other words, you are wise to look at websites that lift up our Lord Jesus and bless multitudes with peace like preachbrotherbob, but avoid and don't mix with any evil texts or websites on the internet. 1 Thessalonians 5:22 tell us to abstain from all appearance of evil.

     Wow, Brother Bob says to multitudes that constantly all day look at their cellphones, facebook, and twitter the gem pictured above. God has no phone, but I talk to Him; He has no facebook, but He's still my friend, and He does not have a twitter, but I still follow Him. 

     Daniel and Jesus both prophesied about the evil communications of today. Daniel said at Daniel 12:4 Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. This has occurred and we can now communicate by email and the internet long distances in an instant from China to America. Jesus said at Matthew 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. This has occurred and many people have become cold, selfish, and unconcerned about many poor sorrowful lost souls all over this earth because they constantly text and watch facebook. 

THIS IS THE FIRST GENERATION THAT TALKS SO MUCH

AND DOES SO LITTLE FOR GOD

     For anyone reading this that constantly texts and writes a multitude of evil words through their cellphone on facebook about nothing and gossip, please heed the warnings of Proverbs 10:19 and Matthew 12:36 and stop sinning. Proverbs 10:19 warns us In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin; but he that refraineth his lips is wise. And Jesus warned us at Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that man shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Wow, this should make us think and pray before we text and write anything on facebook; We all will have to give an account for every idle word of gossip and nonsense that was posted to facebook or texted on a cellphone on judgment day.

     Friend anywhere, if you find yourself talking too much all day on facebook and your cellphone, right now make a decision to stop wasting time and begin to talk to Jesus by memorizing your Word daily, while you witness Jesus to the ends of this earth. Ephesians 5:14 tells us Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise. Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 

     To anyone that texts too much on cellphones and looks too much at facebook, notice King's Solomon's wise words at Ecclesiastes 5:2 Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God, For God is in heaven, and thou upon earth; therefore let thy words be few. And note Paul's wise words at 1 Thessalonians 4:11 And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you.

     Ephesians 6:11 tells us Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles (trickery) of the devil. After you read this bible study, I hope everyone can see the wile or trick of the devil to get our young generation busy wasting time all day and night by gossiping and texting on cellphones through facebook posts, while billions of souls go to hell forever because no one witnesses and tells the gospel to multitudes of lost souls on this earth. 

     Here's a couple of suggestions that Brother Bob gives to parents with children after they read this article. Don't keep your television on for hours and hours in your homes displaying evil images that can harm your children. Get rid of your televisions and instead just let blessed videos and audios about the Word of God and Jesus from the internet on a computer be seen and heard in your homes. Don't let little children have access to a cellphone or computer in their own personal rooms until they are old enough to understand the multitude of wickedness on the internet and over cellphones. Tell kids that the government and the police track every website and text written over the internet and on cellphones. The first thing police do to track a criminal is look at his or her facebook posts. 

     I pray in Jesus name that this bible study is seen by millions all over this earth and wakes them up to the many evils that can be seen on facebook and over the internet through cellphones. Feel free to contact Brother Bob anytime at rz9tlm@gmail.com or write to Brother Bob Malkin, 2233 Pinetree Lane, Apt. N., Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068. (614) 604-7133. Till we all meet again soon to lift up our Lord Jesus, everyone have a blessed day in Jesus name. 

Ants, Conies, Locusts, And Spiders

     Today we learn about four little animals pictured above (ants, conies, locusts, and spiders) that the bible says are exceeding wise. They're not just wise; they're exceeding wise. Proverbs 30:24 says There be four things (ants, conies, locusts, and spiders) which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise. Therefore let your teachers be ants, conies, locusts, and spiders. In other words pay attention to and get wisdom from ants, conies, locusts, and spiders because Proverbs 4:7 says Wisdom is the principal thing; and with all thy getting get understanding.

     And remember that 1 Corinthians 1:30 defines wisdom as Jesus saying But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption. And note that John 1:1 says that Jesus is the Word. Therefore memorize the bible to get wisdom and like King Solomon when you learn about the bible and Jesus it will be better than silver, gold, rubies, and anything you could desire according to Proverbs 3:14-15. Wisdom and Jesus will give you riches and honor along with length of days and add pleasantness and peace. What are you waiting for? Get saved today and repent (decide to stop sinning), make Jesus your God, and believe that Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again.

PROVERBS 30:25 ANTS

The ants are a people not strong

yet they prepare their meat in the summer

     First, let's learn wisdom from the ants. Ants are not lazy and prepare for their future. Like ants, friends everywhere we all need to prepare for our eternal future. Our lives on this earth compared to eternity are like a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. Like a thin footprint on a sea lashed shore, like the stay of a postman, like a glimpse of a passing ship, and like a quick burst of music down a crowded street. 

     This is why 2 Corinthians 6:2 says I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee; behold, now is the accepted time, behold now is the day of salvation. Ages ago, a rich man and Lazarus both died at the same time; Lazarus went to paradise heaven with Abraham and the rich men went to hell. After the rich man died, he did not have another opportunity in hell to get saved; a gulf separated the rich man forevermore from paradise and heaven. This is why I tell everyone everywhere to get saved now on this earth before death and guarantee salvation with eternal peace forevermore in the kingdom of God with our Lord Jesus.  

     Proverbs 6:6 also speaks about ants and says Go to the ant, thou sluggard, consider her ways and be wise. Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest; How long wilt thou sleep O sluggard; When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep; Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep. So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth (this refers to a poor bum with no money that constantly travels, is lazy, begs, and never works) and thy want as an armed man (this refers to a criminal who instead of working steals and gets put in jail where they only make a few bucks).

     Notice that the ants teach us to not be lazy. Proverbs 20:13 says Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes and thou shalt be satisfied with bread. If you want to be blessed and find Jesus, get out of your bed early each morning like Brother Bob at 4AM and don't be lazy. Keep moving and don't just sit around doing nothing. We can learn from water; If water sits still it gets filthy, dirty, and good for nothing; but if water keeps moving like a waterfall, the water is fresh, blessed, alive, and refreshing. Keep moving like a fresh waterfall and you'll be able to hear the voice of Jesus because God's word at Revelation 1:15 says that God's voice is like a mighty rushing waterfall. Keep moving and reach lost sinners all over this earth with Jesus constantly telling everyone all over this earth to get saved and live for Jesus. 

     Proverbs 8:17 says I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. This is why birds are so blessed and happy each morning singing praises to Jesus. Birds know to get up early and find Jesus. We can learn from birds who have bills but they keep on singing. Like birds, get up early every morning and study the Word of God, memorizing scriptures and according to Psalm 1 whatsoever you do will prosper and God will fix everything in your life.

PROVERBS 30:26 CONIES

The conies are but feeble folk, 

yet they make their houses in the rocks

     Next, let's learn wisdom from the coney pictured above. Conies are extremely feeble and afraid of just the shadow of a little bird. But the coney is exceeding wise and runs to the Rock Jesus to hide safely from any fears or trouble. Like conies, we all are feeble folk and branches that can do nothing without the vine Jesus. But, if we all run daily to the Rock Jesus saying I am crucified with Christ by faith, the blood of Jesus will give us victory over the devil and cleanse us from all our sins where evil must pass over us.

     1 Corinthians 10:4 tells us that the Rock that saints hide behind for safety is Jesus saying And did all drink the same spiritual drink; for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them; and that Rock was Christ.  And Proverbs 18:10 tells us The name of the Lord (Jesus) is a strong tower; the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. 

     It's interesting to note that if you visit En Gedi at Israel, you'll see many conies hiding in the rocks and caves of En Gedi for safety. King David used to hide in the rocks and caves of En Gedi like a coney for safety from King Saul who threatened to kill him. 1 Samuel 23:29 tells us And David went up from thence and dwelt in strongholds (defined as a mountain castle in the Rock). 

     Conies are smart and know that according to Isaiah 32:2 they can hide in the refreshing shadow of the great Rock Jesus and get rest in a weary land. Hallelujah, Isaiah 32:2 proclaims that And a man (Jesus) shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great Rock in a weary land.

     The bible tells us that Jesus was the Rock of Ages cleft for me let me hide thyself in thee at Isaiah 26:3 that says Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee; Trust ye in the Lord forever; for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength (defined as Jesus the Everlasting Rock Of Ages).

     And note that there is one other place in the bible that mentions conies at Psalm 104:18 that says The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies. And like the wild goats, Psalm 46:1 tells us that God (Jesus) is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

     And finally, like conies, we learn that we are unclean unless we are washed white as snow by the blood of Jesus. Deuteronomy 14:7 tells us that conies are unclean saying Nevertheless, these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof, as the camel, and the hare, and the coney, for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore, they are unclean unto you. Like conies Isaiah 64:6 says we are unclean; "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags, and we all do fade as a leaf, and our iniquities like the wind have taken us away."

     Learn from the conies; Realize that we all are unclean sinners needing to run to the Rock Jesus to be cleansed by His blood from our sins to receive safety and the peace that passeth all understanding in the kingdom of God forevermore. According to Luke 6:47 build your house on the Rock Jesus and the floods and troubles of this life will not shake or move you because your house is founded upon a Rock named Jesus.

PROVERBS 30:27 LOCUSTS

The locusts have no king

yet go they forth all of them by bands

     Next let's learn wisdom from the locusts pictured above. Like locusts, we need to pray together in groups or bands to be effective. There is no one man show in God's work; we need each other. 10 ants working together can move a crumb better than just 1 ant. This is why we all need to fellowship and attend church with believers every week. One puts 1000 devils to flight, but two in agreement will put 10000 devils to flight. Deuteronomy 32:30 says How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the Lord had shut them up?

     And Matthew 18:19-20 says And I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. And Ecclesiastes 4:12 tells us And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

PROVERBS 30:28 SPIDERS

The spider taketh hold with her hands

and is in king's palaces

     Finally, let's learn wisdom from the spider pictured above. Spiders have determination, ignoring all obstacles and troubles. If you knock down a spider web, the next day you'll find a new spider web. No matter how many times you knock down a spider's web, the spider will build a new web every time. Like spiders, we need to have determination and keep preaching about Jesus to lost sinners no matter how many times people try to knock us down, persecute, and mock us for serving the Lord Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15:58 tells us Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

     Check out these other scriptures that tell us to have determination and keep working for Jesus like the spider. Luke 18:1 says Men ought always to pray and not to faint. Right now say Philippians 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Be stedfast like the spider and keep resisting the devil, and the devil will flee from you. James 4:7 promises Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 

     And note that no matter how many times you try to defeat a spider, the spider will start over again and refuse to be defeated. Like spiders, we are more than conquerors through Him (Jesus) that loved us. 1 Corinthians 15:57 promises But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. And 2 Corinthians 1:14 says Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Chirst, and maketh manifest the savour of His knowledge by us in every place.

     Also, like spiders that take hold with their hands, we need to hold on to our faith and the Lord Jesus daily. No matter how many times people try to stop us and persecute us, get back up again and keep working for Jesus. Proverbs 24:16 tell us For a just man falleth seven times and riseth up again, but he wicked shall fall into mischief.  Also, Jude 3 tells us to earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 

     Finally, note that like spiders. if you keep working for Jesus through any persecution, eventually you will dwell among royalty in the presence of King Jesus. Jesus promised us at Revelation 1:6 that He hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. God rewards the spider's determination by allowing them to live in king's palaces; And God rewards the saints' determination to live for Jesus, by allowing them to live in mansions of royalty on a street of pure gold transparent glass in a city of pure gold clear glass with King Jesus forevermore.  

     I pray in Jesus name this bible study blesses multitudes all over this earth with great peace. Feel free to email Brother Bob anytime at rz9tlm@gmail.com or write to Brother Bob Malkin, 2233 Pinetree Lane, Apt. N., Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068. (614) 604-7133. Until we all meet again soon, have a blessed day in Jesus name.

Repentance The Cure For Sin

     Today let's talk about repentance the cure for sin. First, repentance (making a decision to turn from your sin and turn to Jesus) is a requirement to be saved.2 Corinthians 7:10 says For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of; but the sorrow of the world worketh death. And Jesus commanded us all to repent. Acts 17:30 says And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent. Get saved today and repent (decide to stop sinning) and confess that Jesus is your God, believing daily that Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again.

      And repentance is married to faith. You need both repentance and faith to be saved. Acts 20:20 tells us And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you: but have shewed you and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. Repentance turns you from sin and faith turns you to Jesus. Repentance brings you out of sin and faith brings you in to Jesus. Repentance causes you to stop sinning and faith causes you to start living for Jesus. Repentance causes you to quit sinning and faith causes you to begin living for Jesus.

     And note that repentance is not works but a gift from God that is required to be saved. This is proven by Acts 11:18 that says When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

     Yes good works of blessing widows and the fatherless and being a decent moral person does not save you. Ephesians 2:8 says For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any many should boast. But, we do good works to let Jesus shine to the lost world and get a reward at the bema judgment seat. Good works are the evidence to the world that Jesus has saved a lost sinner. Faith without works is dead. This is why Ephesians 2:10 goes on to say for we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

     OK pictured above we see that Proverbs 28:13 speaks about repentance saying He that covereth his sins shall not prosper; but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Notice that this scripture says if anyone covers their sins and refuses to repent and stop sinning, they shall not prosper. But if anyone confesseth and forsaketh his sins, they will have mercy. A lot of people confess and just say they will stop sinning. This is not enough. One must also forsake and repent (turn from their sin and decide to stop sinning) to have mercy.

     We also see that 2 Chronicles 7:14 also tells us to repent and stop sinning to be blessed saying If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways (in other words repent); then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

     Pictured above we see two examples about people who covered their sins (failed to repent by confessing and forsaking sin) and did not prosper. First we see Achan who covered his sin by burying 200 shekels of silver, a wedge of gold worth 50 shekels, and a goodly Babylonish garment in the earth in the midst of his tent. Achan and his entire family died when Joshua discovered that they covered their sin and hid treasures in their tent. Also, pictured above we see a fig leaf that Adam and Eve used to cover their sin. Adam and Eve did not prosper because they covered their sin and created the curse of sin for all people. This is why Jesus died on the cross to remove sin's curse and wash away our sins in the blood of Jesus.

     Therefore we see that all people have a choice to make. Either foolishly cover and hide your sins, failing to repent, where they do not prosper and die. Or wisely confess and forsake (repent) (decide to turn from sin and stop sinning) and have mercy.

     You see sin blocks blessings. Psalm 66:18 warns us If I regard iniquity (sin) in my heart, the Lord will not hear me. Brother Bob tells people everywhere that when you are tempted to sin, say the following two scriptures to avoid sinning and dying. Say Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Also say For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die; but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

     Choose life Jesus instead of sin and death. I'd rather suffer with Jesus and live than enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season and die in misery. Romans 8:18 tells us For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 2 Timothy 1:12 tells us For the which cause I also suffer these things, nevertheless, I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.

5 OF THE 7 REVELATION CHURCHES WERE TOLD TO REPENT BY JESUS

     Repentance is important to Jesus who told 5 of the 7 Revelation churches to repent. You can't get saved until you repent and first make a decision to stop a lifestyle of fornication, drinking, doing drugs, cussing, and stealing. Then turn to the Lord Jesus where the blood of Jesus will wash away all your sins and make you white as snow and give you the everlasting peace that passeth all understanding. 

     Read how Jesus stressed repentance to the following five Revelation churches to receive blessings and avoid curses. To Ephesus, Jesus said at Revelation 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen and repent and do the first works, or else I will come unto thee quickly and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. To Pergamos, Jesus said at Revelation 2:16 Repent, or else I will come unto thee quickly and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

     To Thyatira, Jesus said at Revelation 2:22 Behold I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulaion, except they repent of their deeds. To Sardis, Jesus said at Revelation 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast and repent. To Laodicea, Jesus said at Revelation 3:19 As many as I love I rebuke and chasten; be zealous therefore and repent.

     Pictured above we see three people in the bible that learned to repent and got blessed. These saints learned to deny themselves and admit that they were sinners willing to repent so Jesus could shine. Like John the Baptist we all must say He (Jesus) must increase, but I must decrease. First Paul repented and said at 1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying and worth of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. To be blessed say along with Paul at Romans 7:24 O wretched man that I am who shall deliver me from the body of this death. I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

     Next we see that Isaiah admitted he was a sinner and repented saying at Isaiah 6:5 Woe is me, for I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts. Job also admitted he was a sinner and repented saying at Job 12:6 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes. And finally Simon Peter repented at Luke 5:8 telling Jesus Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

A LIST OF EXCUSES PEOPLE MAKE FOR SINNING

AVOID MAKING THESE EXCUSES

I know when to quit

I'm not as bad as some people

At least I'm no hypocrite

It all depends on how you look at it

My conscience doesn't convict me

You gotta make a livin'

We all fall short

No one is perfect

I always have done it

A little bit doesn't hurt

God knows my heart

I'm not hurting anyone

Leave them alone; they're not hurtin' anyone 

Everyone else does it

     You might say Brother Bob why are you telling people to repent and stop sinning? I'm telling people to stop sinning because this is what the bible tells me to preach. 1 John 2:1 says My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not (the bible tells you don't sin). (Now note the next words) And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. Hallelujah, if we sin, we can look to our advocate lawyer Jesus and say I am crucified with Christ and the blood of Jesus will cleanse us from all our sins and overcome the devil.

     And pictured above Isaiah 58:1 tells me to cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Also, 2 Timothy 4:2 tells me to preach the Word, be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.  And also Hebrews 12:1 tells us to repent saying Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.

     Pictured above we see that just a little tiny sin can cause trouble and problems. Ephesians 4:27 says Neither give place to the devil. Pictured above we see a wise saying from King Solomon at Ecclesiastes 10 that says Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour; so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour. Truly Song of Solomon 2:5 gives us wise advice: Take us the foxes (sins), (even) the little foxes (sins) that spoil the vines; for our vines have tender grapes.

     Many bible verses tell us to repent daily and stop sinning. Take time and say Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice. And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

     And 2 Corinthians 7:1 says Having therefore these promises dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all fithiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. James 1:21 says Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted Word, which is able to save your souls.

     And notice 1 Corinthians 15:33 pictured above that says Be not deceived; evil communications corrupt good manners. In other words avoid sinful communications on social media like facebook, twitter, and instagram. Don't get overcharged with the cares of this life and forget to witness Jesus to lost sinners all over this earth. Unfortunately, most people are too busy texting and looking at facebook on their cellphones and forget about witnessing Jesus to people around them on this earth. Many people at restaurants look more at their cellphones than their friends at the dinner table. 

     If you take too much time texting on cellphones while watching social media all day like facebook, heed to the warning of Luke 21:34 that says And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged (too much) with surfeiting and drunkenness, and cares of this life (too much texting and facebook on cellphones) and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch ye therefore and pray always that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. 

     Speak out against sin and teach our young people to avoid sin that leads to death and misery. It's wrong for the country of Canada to put a preacher Bill Whatcott in jail with no food for 24 hours for preaching that homosexuality and lesbianism is a sin. The bible says that if a man lies with another man he shall surely be put to death. Romans 1 says that homosexuals and lesbians and members of the LGBTQ (lesbians, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning) group will be given over to a reprobate mind. And the book of Jude 7 warns that people who do the sins of the LGBTQ will suffer the vengeance of eternal fire and burn in hell forevermore unless they repent of their sins and get saved with Jesus.  This is not hate speech; I write this because I want to see people in the LGBTQ get saved which can occur according 1 Corinthains 6:9-11. And such were some of you, but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

     Speak out against people who take drugs and alcohol. Tell them that according to Galatians 5:20 drugs and alcohol are defined as witchcraft. When anyone takes drugs and alcohol they allow the devil to control them with witchcraft. Instead of dying in misery by being controlled by the devil with drugs and alcohol, get saved with peace and let Jesus be Lord of your life. Jesus will take away all your problems when you say daily I am crucified with Christ. The only reason people take drugs and alcohol to escape their troubles is because they do not know the Lord Jesus.

     Speak out against the terrible law being passed in the State of California that wants to ban the sale of all bibles. I have news for these politicians in California. The bible says Forever O Lord your Word is settled in heaven. The bible is the only book that has been here since the beginning of time and it will be around billions of years from now and forevermore. I'm reminded of the wicked king in Jeremiah's day that took a penknife and tried to cut up God's word and burn in it a hearth. When Jeremiah learned about this, Jeremiah rewrote the exact words and had Baruch proclaim it to lost sinners. Thank you Lord Jesus for Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words, as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

     Speak out against people that weekly buy lottery tickets and gamble at the casino. This involves the sin of the love of money that is the root of all evil which while some coveted after they have erred from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. If you need money to pay bills, buy food, and pay your rent, trust the Lord Jesus for all your needs. Jesus said Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things (food, clothes, shelter, and any need to survive) will be added unto you. Remember Jesus can make money appear out of nowhere. When Jesus and Peter had to pay taxes, Jesus made the money appear out of nowhere in a fishes mouth. If you want great gain, remember the bible say that godliness with contentment is great gain.

     Hopefully, the new Supreme Court justice appointed by President Trump will overturn the Roe v. Wade decision and stop abortions. Since Roe v. Wade, 70 million innocent little babies have been murdered. What a blessing to know that the lady that started Roe v. Wade, Norma McCorvey got saved and tried to overturn Roe v. Wade before she died. I know Norma is smiling in heaven knowing that President Trump is appointing a new Supreme Court justice that will overturn Roe v. Wade and stop abortions and the murdering of innocent children. 

TAKE A STAND FOR JESUS AND DON'T COMPROMISE

Don't compromise with contemporaries

And let the vices of contemporaries

dull the voice of your conscience

     Sin is bad but even worse are politicians that compromise with sin and fail to speak out against sin to get the people's vote. These politicians know that sodomy, transgenderism, lottery, and marijuana are sinful but allow laws promoting these sins to get elected and live in luxury.  Jesus said if you are not for me, you are against me. And a compromising lukewarm politician that fails to speak against sin will be rejected by the Lord Jesus. How do you know when a politician is lying? Every time he opens his mouth. How do you know when a politician is telling the truth? When he says another politician is a liar.
