Fighting the Four Evils

Many in the modern western Church are unstable and ignorant people who twist the Scriptures to their own destruction (2 Peter 3:16). How do I know? From all the doctrines and arguments that people in the modern western Church make which result in theology does not glorify God. This is all the manifestation of rebellion against God. Such is the manifested in the belief in "rights" for any human being. We are such good respecters of persons. We tend to be excuse the sin of those who we think are 'good', simply because of our high regard for them, and as a hard as a stone towards people who are bad, and who may well be truly evil, and diabolical. However, our hatred for such people is usually out of a fleshly, worldly and earthly disregard for such people. God is not like us. He is no respecter of persons (Romans 2:11; Acts 10:34). It is from this human respect for persons, as opposed to true justice which can only come from God, that the belief in "rights...

The modern person, whether saved or unsaved, is a very sensitive person, easily upset, pretends to be tolerant of others, but yet aggressive when others offend them personally. Many people are like that today, and it is a manifestation of a serious spiritual malaise. It is the manifestation of the human tendency of all of us to elevate ourselves, thinking we have liberty to do as we want, according to what we choose. That people do not even question the attitude of one doing as one chooses it itself an indictment on the vile, wickedness of humanity. The modern world only thinks of its liberty. It is all about liberty, to do as one chooses. In doing so, it sets up all kind of rules, yes rules, whether cultural, social, legal or political, to pursue such vile human liberty, in a legalistic manner, to satisfy the lusts of the flesh, lusts of the eyes and pride of life (1 John 2:16). Many in the modern western Church have been seduced by the doctrine of "liberty", justifying so...

Why is there so much earthly thinking, and acceptance of it by many in the modern church? Why?? Why is it the norm that many Christians today insist on not "offending" a God-hating, vile, abominable, filthy, rotten, Hell-deserving world by being "culturally sensitive", meaning to apologise for God's holiness and righteousness? The question as to why should the church apologise for God's holiness and righteousness as revealing in His perfect Moral Law is an illegitimate one. The question itself should not even be conceived because God's Moral Law is Sovereign over all things. Yet, modern evangelicals are opposed to using the Law of God in evangelism because of fear of man. Plain and simple. It is because of fear of man. This is by no means to suggest that one should seek to strive when evangelising and have no fear and trembling. Rather, it is an attitude prevalent in the modern church. It is not because the Church has been "all about rules"...

Many people, saved or unsaved, believe that the ultimate purpose of the spirit of war, or war in the natural sense, is the kill lives and souls. This is an extremely dangerous half-truth. War does seek to end lives thereby destroy souls as an ultimate end. However, it is not the ultimate end. Its real ultimate is to dominate, manipulate and intimidate.  Since all will die physically one day for all have sinned against God (Romans 5:12, 1 Corinthians 15:21), the deaths that occur as a result of war is not the real issue of concern, although extremely tragic. The real issue of concern is what the spirit behind war seeks to do - satan, the "murderer from the beginning" and "father of lies"(John 8:44), uses it to stir up division, anger, hate, strife and confusion among people.  You may say, "Haven't people always sought division, anger, hate, strife and confusion among people. Don't people choose division, anger, hate, strife and confusion among people...

Those who are under the spirit of legalism often think that rebellion is off-limits for them. However, they do not realise that legalism itself is rebellion against God. This is because their pride blinds them from seeking God for a heart of love.  The Bible makes it clear that no one is good, no not one (Romans 3:10). This means that no one can do good works in the eyes of God in one's own strength. Romans 3:10-12 is perhaps the Biblical teaching that is the hardest to accept, but yet easy to use as an excuse for one's own sins, or to use against the unsaved on the grounds that the Bible does refer to some specific individuals as 'righteous'. Therefore, this verse, as is the case with all others, must be understood in the correct context. What this verse means is that no one is good in one's own human flesh. Nor can even seek to be righteous or good in one's own flesh. This is because the flesh has been corrupted with a sinful nature.  Wherefore, as by one ...

The comments of the critics are in green, enclosed by the square brackets. My response is in purple, interspersed in between the paragraphs enclosed by square brackets. [The abolition of private property is actually a communist belief. "The theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property." - Karl Marx.] The issue here is not communism versus capitalism as this person makes it out to be. It is about pleasing God, not communism versus capitalism. In addition to this, merely because it is an unsaved person who makes a statement about morality or ethics does not mean it is wrong. God indeed does use ungodly people to do His work in ways that no one can understand, just as He used Julius Caesar, a secular ruler, who was against usury, to rule over the Roman Empire. Just because a statement about morality was made by a secular person does not mean it is wrong or even anti-Biblical! [The eight commandment, a proh...

Have you ever wondered what the world’s most favourite sin is? Many may think it is homosexuality. Others may think it is pornography. Yet, some may think it is fornication. Certainly, these are some of the favourite sins of the modern western society. However, there is one sin that encompasses these sins. This sin is the sin of idolatry. Many think they are too “sophisticated” to bow down to wooden images or worship animals. However, idolatry is not just limited to that. Idolatry is to give worth to anything above God. It is to break the First of the Ten Commandment by not seeking God. Creating a false image of God is to break the Second of the Ten Commandments, whether it be thinking that God is forgiving only, and that He will not punish sin, or thinking that He does not hate sin and is not angry at the wicked every day. The unsaved are all idolaters whether they acknowledge it or not. They are all God-haters. As it is written: None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands...

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows (1 Timothy 6:10).  Many Christians acknowledge and accept that covetousness is sin. However, merely acknowledging and accepting that it is sin is not enough. One must practice it and keep one's word as    whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him (1 John 2:5). As Apostle Paul asked, " you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal?" (Romans 2:21) to remind those who sought to teach and rebuke others to make sure they heed what they teach to others. such as to hold them to account for any hypocrisy. It is easy to say that one acknowledges that covetousness is a sin, but the real question is whether one practices it. The tenth of the Ten Commandments is ' you shalt not covet ' (Exodu...

Emotions are powerful. While emotions are a gift from God, they certainly can be misused, abused and faked. Satan uses emotional manipulation to deceive people into acting out on something on the mere basis of their emotions.  One's emotions do not determine reality. Rather, our emotions respond to reality based on what we perceived. Emotions dictate how we perceive things. This explains why people respond to the same text differently. My article at http://clashdaily.com/2014/07/darkness-abortion-seduces-promised-sexual-freedom/ is only one example. I thank the person who identified himself or herself as Prayer Warrior for standing up for me when a very upset Roman Catholic woman made vitriolic false accusations against me. I thank God for his or her grace in dealing with that RC woman who continually attacked me in her anger.  Emotions shape our perception of things, and we then act accordingly to how we perceive things. Emotions can be our friends when they direct u...
