The Plunge, and Five Timely Warnings
Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, who draw sin as with cart ropes ... Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight ... Therefore, as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and as dry grass sinks down in the flame, so their root will be as rottenness, and their blossom go up like dust; for they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts, and have despised the Holy One of Israel. Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against his people, and he stretched out his hand against them and smote them, and the mountains quaked, and their corpses were as refuse in the midst of the streets ... For I earnestly protested and warned your fathers at the time that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, even to this day ... saying, Obey My voice. Yet they did not obey or incline their ear to Me, but everyone walked in the stubbornness of his own evil heart. ... Therefore thus says the Lord, Behold, I am bringing evil and calamity upon them ...
Is.5:18,20-21,24,25 (RSV); Jer.11:6,8,11 (Amp)
Warning One: The Axe Must Fall
The founding fathers of this nation based
its value system -- jurisprudence -- on
Judeo-Christian values. They embraced
the absolutes of good and evil found
in Scripture. Homosexuality,
adultery and fornication thus
were seen as sinful - wrong - whilst chastity
and sexual purity were seen as "musts"
- essentials! - by the mores of the land.
Lord, what has happened to such fundaments?
Now wrong is deemed as right! The nation planned
by Thee is being torn asunder -- sense
and sensibility distorted, scorned.
Wrath must be next. Alas! We have been warned ...
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life ... Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of God ... "Therefore hear this now, you who are given to pleasures ... you have trusted in your wickedness; You have said, 'No one sees me'; Your wisdom and your knowledge have warped you ... Therefore evil shall come upon you" ...
Gal.6:7-8 (NKJV); 1 Cor.6:9-11 (NKJV); Is.47:8,10,11 (NKJV).
