A 1400 Year Secret

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

Three truths everyone ought to know about the reality of Islam:

1. Allah is a demon god. Allah commands the murder of all Jews, Christians, Hindus, pagans, and apostates who leave Islam (surahs 47:4; 9:29; 9:5; 5:51; 4:89; 3:85; etc.). The Qur'an says Allah is the greatest of all deceivers, encouraging his followers to lie (surahs 2:225; 16:106; 66:2; etc.). Allah is not the true God.
2. Muhammad^{PNKH DBUH*} is a false prophet. Muhammad was a murderer, a rapist, and a pedophile. Muhammad married his youngest wife when she was 7 and consummated the marriage (had sex with her) when she was 9!
3. The Qur'an is an unholy book. The Qur'an is a collection of ravings made by a lunatic madman. Muhammad created his political false religion to appease his perverse desires.

Islam always practices economic warfare wherever possible. Muhammad was infamous for attacking caravans. On 9/11, the World Trade Center was attacked. Modern political Islam claims that it is a "religion of peace," yet the Qur'an states very emphatically that "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him!" (surah 3:85). If Islam is a "religion of peace," why is it that Islam is constantly, consistently, and continuously at war with Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and even other Muslims? This is the religion that our ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated, anti-intellectual, know-nothing left-wing Liberal bigots want to defend?!?!?

Religious groups who can reside together and act kindly toward one another:
Hindus living with Jews = No Problem
Sikhs living with Hindus = No Problem
Baha’is living with Jews = No Problem
Jews living with Atheists = No Problem
Hindus living with Baha’is = No Problem
Christians living with Jews = No Problem
Jews living with Buddhists = No Problem
Buddhists living with Sikhs = No Problem
Shintos living with Atheists = No Problem
Hindus living with Christians = No Problem
Buddhists living with Hindus = No Problem
Baha’is living with Christians = No Problem
Christians living with Shintos = No Problem
Buddhists living with Shintos = No Problem
Atheists living with Buddhists = No Problem
Confusians living with Hindus = No Problem
Confucians living with Baha’is = No Problem
Shintos living with Confucians = No Problem
Atheists living with Confucians = No Problem

Where does the proverbial crap always seem to hit the fan?:
Muslims living with Jews = Problem
Muslims living with Sikhs = Problem
Muslims living with Hindus = Problem
Muslims living with Baha’is = Problem
Muslims living with Shintos = Problem
Muslims living with Atheists = Problem
Muslims living with Christians = Problem
Muslims living with Buddhists = Problem
Muslims living with other Muslims = Problem

^* Peace Never Knew Him, Damnation Be Upon Him

Malakoi: Trans-women and Effeminate Gay Men

"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 effeminate (ουτε μαλακοι), nor homosexuals (ουτε αρσενοκοιται), nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-10).

Figuratively, μαλακοι means "effeminate" (having feminine qualities untypical of a man), such as transvestites (men who dress up like women), transsexual women (men who make themselves out to be women, even going so far as to have sex changes), or a person who allows himself to be sexually abused contrary to nature (the passive partner in a gay relationship). There are those who argue that μαλακοι means "soft" (Matt. 11:8; Luke 7:25), but this is without warrant or justification. The former verses join μαλακοις to the word ιματιοις (clothing) in order to modify it. In 1 Corinthians 6:9, the phrase appears as ουτε μαλακοι. The word μαλακοι is not joined to any other word, which is what would be required in order to translate it as "soft". The question would arise, "Soft what?" Ergo, we must translate it according to its other meanings:

1. soft, soft to the touch
2. metaph. in a bad sense
1. effeminate
1. of a catamite, a boy kept for homosexual relations with a man
2. of a male who submits his body to unnatural lewdness
3. of a male prostitute

The compound Greek word αρσενοκοιται comes from its root or stem words, αρσεν (a male) and κοιτε (a bed), and means "a male bed partner" or "a man who lies in bed with another male as one lies in bed with a female—a homosexual, a bugger, a Sodomite, one who defiles himself with men."

"For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women (θηλειαι) exchanged the natural function (χρησιν) for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men (αρσενες) abandoned the natural function (χρησιν) of the woman (θηλειας) and burned in their desire (ορεξει) toward one another, men with men (αρσενες εν αρσεσι) committing indecent acts (ασχημοσυνην) and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error." (Romans 1:26-27)

θηλειαι = "female, woman"
αρσενες, αρσεσι = "male, man"
χρησιν = "employment, i.e. (specially), sexual intercourse (as an occupation of the body)"
ορεξει = "excitement of the mind, i.e. longing after: lust"
αρσενες εν αρσεσι = "men with men, i.e. homosexuals"
ασχημοσυνην = "an indecency; by implication, the pudenda: shame"

This passage addresses all individuals who exchange the natural function (intercourse) between a man and a woman for that which is unnatural and perverse. It includes every form of homosexuality: pederasty, bisexuality (and all its variant forms: pansexuality, polysexuality, omnisexuality, ambisexuality. etc.), transsexuality, etc. Anything outside of God's original intended sexuality—one man and one woman—is included and addressed with this passage. Heterosexuality is God's only acceptable form of sexuality.

"And [Jesus] answered and said, "Have you not read, that He who created them from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE, and said, 'FOR THIS CAUSE A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, AND SHALL CLEAVE TO HIS WIFE; AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH'? Consequently they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."" (Matthew 19:4-6)

The rest of the 1 Corinthians 6 passage continues thus:

"Such were (ην; IT) some of you; but you were washed (AIM), but you were sanctified (AIM), but you were justified (AIM) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:11)

IT = Imperfect Tense, used in the indicative mood referring to continuous action in past time.
AIM = Aorist Indicative Middle, conceives of an action in past time as simply having taken place, without further defining it.

In other words, even during Jesus and Paul's era, people had been guilty of committing these same sins. But when they came to know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, they stopped having anything to do with these sins and began to walk in righteousness and holiness. They used to practice these sins habitually, as many individuals do today, but once they had truly encountered the Saviour, their life changed forever and they forsook their sins and began practicing righteousness. "...now is "THE DAY OF SALVATION"" (1 Cor. 6:2). There is no guarantee of tomorrow. You can be free from your sin. Stop embracing it and trying to identify with it. Jesus said, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest" (Matt. 11:28). If you are tired of trying to silence your conscience, if you are tired of making excuses for and embracing your sin, if you are tired of struggling against the sin that besets you, all you need to do it come to Jesus in repentance (agree with God and what He says about your condition) and faith (trust Jesus as your only means to salvation) and He will give you rest. He will grant you salvation. But you must come to Him on His terms—not your own.

Gender Spectrum?

Gender is not a spectrum! No, most people do not see gender as a spectrum. Most people see gender as either of the two sexes: male or female. There are no "orientations," only disorientations of confused individuals who fail to face and accept reality and need to be reoriented. We used to live in simpler times where people actually had wisdom and intelligence, and those who refused to accept and face the truth of reality were institutionalized in order to get the mental help that they were in desperate need of. Nowadays you have people wanting to be "identified" as a cat (or something else), and the rest of intelligent society is being forced to excuse, accept, and cater to mental illnesses of these individuals. Identity is the sameness in all that constitutes the objective reality of a thing. It is what corroborates that you are who and what you claim to be. In other words, if you want to "identify" as being a cat, a simple look in the mirror will expose the fact that your identity is that of a human female or a human male. You are not a cat! (Ahem! Nano of Oslo, Norway.) A person’s belief that he/she is something or someone he/she is not, is at best a sign of confused thinking; at worst, it is a delusion.

There are two genders and only two genders: male and female. Males (men) have a penis. Females (women) have a vagina. The boy from the movie Kindergarten Cop said it best, and said it with intelligence and wisdom: "Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina." It is that simple. Period! The penis was designed specifically with the vagina in mind, to be able to enter the vagina. The vagina was designed specifically with the penis in mind, to be able to receive the penis. The two are complementary; they were made for each other the way a socket and a light bulb are made for each other and an outlet and a plug are made for each other. Gender and sex refer to the exact same thing and are interchangeable, as demonstrated clearly from any competent dictionary on the English language.

—Samuel Johnson's 1768 & 1792 Dictionary of the English Language

—Samuel Johnson & John Walker's 1828 Dictionary of the English Language

GENDER n. 1. Properly, kind; sort. 2. A sex, male or female.

SEX n. 1. The distinction between male and female; or that property or character by which an animal is male or female.

—Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language

gender n. 1a a person's sex, either of the sexes.

sex n. 1 either of the main divisions (male and female) into which living things are placed on the basis of their reproductive functions. 2 the fact of belonging to one of these. 3 males or females collectively. 4 sexual intercourse.

—The Canadian Oxford Paperback Dictionary

gender n. 1: SEX

sex n. 1: either of two divisions of organisms distinguished respectively as male or female 2: the sum of the structural, functional, and behavioral characteristics of living beings that subserve reproduction by two interacting parents and that distinguish males and females

—Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary

Genitalia (the genitals) refers to the biological sexual reproductive organ you were born with; the penis or the vagina. Gender does not! Both gender and sex refer to being either male (a boy or a man) or female (a girl or a woman). A man is an adult human male, having the genitalia of the penis. A woman is an adult human female, having the genitalia of the vagina. Male is the attribute of a man. Female is the attribute of a woman. Masculine refers to the characteristic of men. Feminine refers to the characteristic of women.

Step outside your door and into a throng of people. What do you see? You see two things: males and females; hes and shes. Period! Two genders. Two sexes. Two pronouns. Sexuality refers to possessing sexual feelings and desires collectively. It has nothing to do with your disorientation! Every child can tell the difference between the two genders. Unfortunately, you have to be college educated to be that stupid to deny it.

Do not allow these corrupt, twisted miscreants to mutilate the English language by playing fast and loose with it, creating divisions between words that do not exist! Know the truth, speak the truth, and stand for the truth! These people refuse to accept and face the truth of reality, ignoring their identity confirmed to them when they look in the mirror or down their pants. The objective reality of their identity is plainly seen: males have a penis, females have a vagina. Period! But these anti-intellectual fools want to attempt to label themselves—or "identify" themselves—according to subjective fantasies. In other words, if I want to "identify" myself as the Easter Bunny, I am not wrong to do so and everyone else must accommodate my mental illness and disconnect from reality. Welcome to the fallout resulting from the sheer stupidity of Post-Modernism.

Where do these ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated, anti-intellectual people these days get off saying that it is my "right" if I want to "identify" myself as a red balloon?!? No matter how much I believe myself to be a red balloon, or want to be "identified" as a red balloon, the truth and objective reality is that I am not a red balloon, nor will I ever be a red balloon, but a male human being!!! If I think of myself as anything other than what I truly, physically am, then I am a liar (lying to myself) and am mentally disconnected from reality and the truth. That I would demand the rest of society to excuse and accommodate such a mental disconnect from reality would make me the worst kind of person imaginable. I ought to be in a straight jacket inside a padded room getting the psychological help I need in order to come back to reality. If that offends you, good! You need to be offended so that you wake up and start facing the reality of who you really are; not some fantasy you want to play out in your mind.

Infants are not “assigned” a sex at birth; birth sex declares itself anatomically in utero and is clearly evident and acknowledged at birth. From the time you are conceived, your gender/sex/gender identity has already been determined. The second you come out of the womb, your gender/sex/gender identity can be plainly seen by everyone! You either have a penis, identifying you as part of the male gender/sex, making you a boy who will grow up to become a man; or you have a vagina, identifying you as part of the female gender/sex, making you a girl who will grow up to become a woman. A third possibility could happen, but this is not a separate gender/sex. A hermaphrodite is someone who, as the result of a birth defect (the mutation of existing genetic information), is born with both a penis and a vagina (though typically only one of these will function). Specialists can now perform an ultrasound, blood test, chromosome analysis, and even do exploratory surgery to find out the baby's true sex. However, many regard hermaphrodites as being male because they possess the Y chromosome, which is male-specific. But that is an entirely different discussion.

Gender "Studies" should be abolished in all publicly funded Universities. Students who go to study Gender "Studies" come out dumber than when they went in. They come out believing lies; they come out with their critical faculties impaired—not improved; they come out more fragile than when they arrived; they come out being less able to have stable relationships with people, less able to cope in the world of work, less able to be functional well-rounded human beings. Gender "Studies" departments are damaging young people. They should be shut down! Gender "Studies" is a very bitter, divisive, paranoid philosophy. It is ideology pretending to be scholarship. It is propaganda pretending to be fact. Leftists have moral fervor and misinformation, which is conducive to fanaticism and zealotry. Hate speech, hate crimes, and hate violence are committed not by the Rights, but by the Lefts, because in their minds it is informed and justified by their fanatic zealotry. The very people who cry "tolerance" and "inclusiveness" are the very same people who are intolerant and exclusive because they are hypocrites!

Have you ever seen a culture, society, or generation throughout history that has been so corrupt and fixated on sex and distorting it to preposterous proportions as the present culture, society, and generation? Intelligence and reality escapes the grasp of these individuals. They are so sin-soaked that it is permeating into every crevice of their life. It is sad how modern society has lost all sense of intelligence and has opted to pander to the mental illnesses of these individuals and accommodate their insanity. Woe to this generation!

What Was Christianity Before?

In my previous blog entry, I began asking the question "What is Christianity?" I pointed out the fact that the early followers of Jesus were first called "Christians" in Antioch of Syria, and that it was meant as a derogatory term. "Christianity" is derived from that term, named after Christ. I asked the question, "If not for that term, what would Christians have been called? What were they called?" But more importantly, "What was their religion called?" Being that Jesus repeatedly corrected the Pharisees and Sadducees on religious matters, and the religion was not referred to as "Christianity" until well after the early followers of Jesus were first called "Christians," is Christianity nothing more than the true, purified form of Judaism (minus the laws, the sacrifices, etc.) as it was originally meant to be?

Remember, the Old Testament frequently spoke of the Gentile inclusion. What would they eventually be included into? In Romans 11, Paul dissects national Israel into two groups: believing Israel (true Israel) and unbelieving Israel (false Israel). The believing Gentiles are grafted in with believing Jews, making them part of believing Israel (true Israel). The true Israel is the true Church and the true Church is the true Israel. In Ephesians 2, Paul goes on to demonstrate how the two groups (Jews and Gentiles) have been joined together through Christ into one body. All early followers of Jesus believed in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. So what religion did early "Christians" follow and practice? What was it called?

I ask these questions to get your minds working. "Christianity" is what their religion (what they followed and practiced) eventually became known as. But what was it called before that? If you want to know what the early followers of Jesus believed, you need to know the Old Testament. When Jesus referred to "Moses and the prophets," He was referring to the entire Old Testament. When Jesus and the Apostles referred to "the Scriptures," they were referring to the entire Old Testament. When reading the Gospels, you need to know that Jesus did not do away with the Old Testament, but instead expanded upon it: "You have heard it said... But I say..." He clarified it in a way that the Pharisees and Sadducees had missed. The entire New Testament is based upon the entire Old Testament writings and Jesus' expansion and explanation thereof. It does not replace it, it complements it.

CHRISTIANS

The term "Christian" is a Greek term (Christianos, Χριστιανός) that means "Christ Follower," "Follower of The Anointed." It was first bestowed upon the followers of Jesus in Antioch of Syria. Antioch was known for making up such nicknames. This term appears only thrice in the New Testament. Kenneth Wuest holds that all three usages reflect a derisive element in the term. It was originally used as a derogatory term with which to refer to the followers of Jesus. In Tacitus' Annals, he relates that "by vulgar appellation [they were] commonly called Christians."

"and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. And for an entire year they met with the church and taught considerable numbers; and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch." (Acts 11:26)
"Agrippa replied to Paul, "In a short time you will persuade me to become a Christian."" (Acts 26:28)
"but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name." (1 Pet. 4:16)

NAZARENES

Prior to this, the early followers of Jesus were called "Nazarenes," as used in Acts 24:5. The Hebrew equivalent of "Nazarene" is Notzrim, which occurs in the Babylonian Talmud, and is still the modern Israeli Hebrew term for Christian. The Arabic equivalent of "Nazarene" is Naṣrānī (plural, Naṣārā), which are the common words used for Christians. Masīḥī (followers of the Messiah) is the term used by Christians to refer to themselves. In 2014, when Christians were ejected from the city of Mosul, Naṣārā was spray-painted on every property where Christians had been.

"For we have found this man a real pest and a fellow who stirs up dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes." (Acts 24:5)

THE WAY

The name that was widely used for believers, which is mostly unknown to Christians today, would be the title "The Way." This probably originated from Christ Himself, who called Himself "The Way" (John 14:6). This name was used widely in the Book of Acts. Even Paul introduces himself as a follower of "the Way" to the Governor, and not as a "Christian" (Acts 24:14), even though they were known as "Christians" by Acts 11:26.

"and asked for letters from him to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, both men and women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem." (Acts 9:2)
"But when some were becoming hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the people, he withdrew from them and took away the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus." (Acts 19:9)
"About that time there occurred no small disturbance concerning the Way." (Acts 19:23)
"But this I admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets;" (Acts 24:14)
"But Felix, having a more exact knowledge about the Way, put them off, saying, "When Lysias the commander comes down, I will decide your case."" (Acts 24:22)

The early believers were also known as "a sect."

"For we have found this man a real pest and a fellow who stirs up dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes." (Acts 24:5)
"But this I admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets;" (Acts 24:14)
"But we desire to hear from you what your views are; for concerning this sect, it is known to us that it is spoken against everywhere." (Acts 28:22)

We have just seen what other terms the early followers of Jesus were referred to prior to being called "Christians," but that does not tell us what religion they followed and practiced; what it was called. Jesus' disciples were all Jewish. You might call them Messianic Jews. Gentile believers might be called Messianic Gentiles. But what religion did they follow and practice? We know full well what they believed; they believed the truths contained in the entire Old Testament, which we know from the Gospels that Jesus expanded upon, making it much more stringent and showing the impossibility to physically keep the Law (which Paul goes into detail about in Romans 7). We know they believed in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Is Christianity nothing more than the true, purified form of Judaism (minus the laws, the sacrifices, etc.) as it was originally intended? As I said, I am asking these questions to get your minds working. I honestly do not know the answer (or maybe I do and I am failing to put my finger on it), but the question intrigues me. As professing followers of Christ Jesus, we need to get back to the roots of our faith and believe as the early followers of Jesus did. Purely and wholeheartedly.

Please, do not blindly get hooked up on any of the information presented and posed here. No, we should not all go out and convert to Judaism, even if before it was referred to as "Christianity" it might have been known as Judaism. Why? Modern Judaism is a far cry different from what Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, the Apostles, and the early followers of Jesus believed. And just because the early followers of Jesus were referred to by "the Way" does not mean you need to go looking for and join some group calling itself The Way, because if they are anything like The Way International, they are a cult under the guise of "Christianity." In fact, any time some group tries to name their denomination according to what they think is the name of God's "true" Church in the Bible, claiming themselves to be the "true" church, they all turn out to be cults (e.g., the Church of God (Acts 20:28; 1 Cor. 1:2; 10:32; 11:22; 15:9; 2 Cor. 1:1; Gal. 1:13; 1 Tim. 3:5). Do not become legalistic about what we should be called or what our religion should be called. The only thing that matters is what the entire Bible teaches. Anything outside of that can be discarded.

Just so that I have not lost any of my readers, let me clarify what I am trying to get at. "Christianity" is what their religion (what they followed and practiced) eventually became known as. But what was it called before that? If it was not for the city of Antioch coming up with the derogatory term, their religion never would have come to be called "Christianity." So what was it called? Minus the Law, the sacrifices, etc., the Old Testament saints and the New Testament saints have the same faith. One looked forward to the Messiah, the other looked backward to the Messiah. I hope you understand what I am getting at. Hopefully it has gotten the gears of your mind turning, too. Do I actually need an answer to it? Not really. I know what I believe and in Whom I believe and that is all that really matters. But I am a thinker, and I often delve into such thoughts to try and learn more. This is what the noble Bereans were like.

You Have No Opinion On the Matter

ATTENTION: Atheists, Agnostics, Skeptics, Mockers, and Doubters

If you never look to see what the Bible says, you cannot test to see if it is true nor can you take the exam. You have no opinion on the matter because you know nothing of it and refuse to educate yourself thereon.

Atheists, agnostics, skeptics, mockers, and doubters enjoy spewing their ignorant opinions about religion, Christianity, and the Bible, yet not once have they ever looked into it or studied it. The nonsense they regurgitate originates from the ignorant opinions of those they have either listened to or read, who also have not once looked into it or studied it. These people are veritaphobes, alethephobes, gnosiophobes, and sophophobes. They are afraid of that which they do not know, and they are afraid and unwilling to learn about it in order to have a valid opinion on the matter. Classic veritaphobia.

If you have never bothered to lift your own finger and look into the various religions and study them, let alone to look into Christianity and the Bible and to study it, you cannot open your mouth against them. You have nothing to contribute to the conversation. You ought to be seen and not heard, remaining in silence. You cannot say all religions are nonsense or claim you are against religion when you know absolutely nothing about any single one of them, let alone all of them. That just makes you an anti-intellectual know-nothing bigot. Too many atheists, agnostics, skeptics, mockers, and doubters take what they have heard or read and run with it to their own detriment and foolishness. They run smack dab face first into the wall.

If you have never looked to see what the Bible has to say, or studied it in its proper context to understand what is taking place, you can say nothing of it. If you have never tested it to see if it is true, paying attention to the numerous times in which archaeology, history, and science have each verified the reliability and validity of the Bible, then you can offer no opinion on it. You cannot take the exam because you would fail. If it were a court of law, you would be dismissed as a witness because your testimony would be suspect and you would be held on charges of perjury. Saying things about religion, and/or Christianity, when you have never bothered to look into them and study them only makes you look like a colossal fool.

Here are some books written by men who at one time were entirely against Christianity. Through honest investigation in attempt to prove Christianity false and bogus, these men discovered the truth and embraced Christianity. More accurately, they embraced Christ Jesus as their Lord and Saviour.

• Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis
• The New Evidence That Demands A Verdict by Josh McDowell
• The Case For A Creator by Lee Strobel
• Cold-case Christianity by J. Warner Wallace

There are plenty more cases out there like these, and plenty more evidence that overwhelmingly supports Christianity as the only true religion. All other religions claim to point the way to something better, but only Christ Jesus boldly stated, "I am the Way. No one comes to the Father except through Me." Jesus is the only way. He is the only truth. All other religions are man-made and based on works salvation, where you have to do things in order to make sure you have earned the final reward. Christianity is unique, being the only religion where salvation is a  free gift to those who repent of their sins and trust in the Lord Jesus as their Saviour.

Christianity is God's religion, revealed through Christ Jesus. The Bible is God's Word, declared through the prophets, the Messiah, and the apostles. It is called Christianity after Christ. The first followers of Jesus were called Christians in Antioch, but it was meant as a derogatory term: "There go those Christ-Ones." Would this religion have had a different name apart from that? Being that Jesus corrected the Pharisees and Sadducees on religious matters, is Christianity nothing more than the true, purified form of Judaism? I honestly cannot say. I will leave you with that to think about and ponder on. "What is Christianity? What would it have been known as if not for the heathen derogatorily referring to followers of Christ Jesus as 'Christians'?"

Expose and Avoid the Darkness

It is utterly amazing how many so-called professing "Christians" disregard the truth, God, and Scripture in order to justify their opinions and feelings. When it comes to obedience, truth and Scripture come first. Genuine Christians are supposed to expose the darkness and discard anything having to do with the darkness. Whenever someone puts their feelings and opinions ahead of truth and Scripture, it reveals their love of sin, which calls into question their supposed profession of faith. A genuine Christian does not make excuses in order to justify and hold on to something they know that they ought to let go. If they bothered to read their Bible in the least, especially the New Testament, they would see everything of which I am talking about. But when you hate God, erect your own god made in your image to suit your own desires, love your sin, and are willfully disobedient, why would you care what Scripture has to teach you, let alone take a stand for truth and expose the darkness?

People who fight so hard to protect the darkness of others, rather than expose it like they are commanded to do in Scripture, do so because of their own personal darkness. They know that if they expose the darkness of someone else, they need to face their own darkness, which they do not want to do. So in order to protect their own darkness, they attempt to defend the darkness of others. In order to make excuses for their own sin, they start making excuses for the sin in others. They have taken the speck-log scenario and perverted it, telling themselves, "Since I have a log in my eye that I don't want to remove, I'll help protect the log in the other person's eye." Hence why so many professing Christians no longer have any morals or values and will dismiss lying, theft, etc., even going so far as approving of homosexuality and transsexuality.

God has not given us a spirit of fear. Regardless of what laws are passed, the genuine Christian does not and will not bow down to the idol made of gold (re: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego). The genuine Christian is obedient and stands for truth. Consensus does not alter the truth. Majority opinion does not alter the truth. Laws do not alter the truth. If the law suddenly made rape legal, it would not be okay to rape someone. People need to start using their head. They need to learn the truth, speak the truth, and take a stand for the truth; regardless of the cost. If you are afraid to pay that cost, you cannot be Jesus' disciple—you cannot be a Christian. Jesus made that clear. If you do not first consider the cost of what it will mean to follow Jesus (trials, persecution, death), then you cannot be a Christian and you will not have received salvation, no matter how much you think you have.

When Jesus said, "It is difficult for the rich to enter heaven," the disciples marveled. Why? Because salvation is not easy and does not come easy. Unfortunately, many professing "Christians" have fallen for Easy-Believism and have never actually given their life over to the Lord, making them twice the sons/daughters of Hell than they were before. You can only be born again from above—not by human will or decision. If you have not first counted the cost of what it might mean to follow Jesus (trials, persecution, death), and you are not willing to pay that cost, then YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN and YOU HAVE NEVER RECEIVED SALVATION! Period! None of this is my "opinion." This all comes straight from the Bible, straight from the New Testament. Try reading it some time.

It disgusts me how so many professing "Christians" want to fight clear lines drawn in the sand. But I should o't be surprised by it since they are not saved to begin with. They have been Pope-ishly declared to be Christians by liars, frauds, and charlatans without having actually become one through and by the Holy Spirit. Hillsong Church is guilty of this Easy-Believism, asking children if they want to go to Heaven, telling them to pray a prayer (Where is this in the Bible?), and then Pope-ishly declaring them to be Christians without ever seeing a change take place in their lives. 80% of Americans think that they are Christians and are going to Heaven. Jesus' parable of the soils reveals a lousy 25% genuine conversion. 50% of those soils are false converts. The other 25% had the seed snatched away before anything could happen. Jesus' other parables teach us how the genuine converts and false converts will grow together until the end of the age when the goats will be separated from the sheep. Jesus also made it clear that "FEW" would actually enter Heaven. Why do you think the Bible tells us to "Examine yourself; test yourself to see if you are in the faith." Why? Because "The heart is deceitful above all things." We can easily deceive ourselves about our own salvation.

Instead of being a rebellious, disobedient fool, try having some morals and values, obeying Scripture, and taking a stand for truth. Your opinion is of no relevance. You need to be obedient to the truth and Scripture. We are told to expose the darkness and to have nothing to do with it. If you are a genuine Christian, I suggest you obey your Lord and Saviour. His words are not recorded in Scripture just for the sake of it.

Pathological Narcissism

"Pathological narcissism is a life-long pattern of traits and behaviours which signify infatuation and obsession with one's self to the exclusion of all others and the egotistic and ruthless pursuit of one's gratification, dominance, and ambition." —Sam Vaknin

Pathological narcissism is a huge problem throughout the world, but especially so for European countries, and even more so for English-speaking countries like Britain, Canada, Australia, and the USA. Pathological narcissism is the result of the "It's all about you" ideology that has swept over the West. It was bad enough that post-Renaissance individualistic individuality reared its ugly selfish head, in opposition to the historical familial existence, which can still be seen in many other parts of the world (where family—immediate and extended—all look out for each other and bear each other's burdens). But then selfishness took on a whole other persona at the exclusion of everyone else. The mentality is this: "It's all about you. To hell with everyone else." No matter what it takes, step on everyone else to get where you want to be. Lie, steal, cheat; whatever helps you to get there at the expense of other people.

People like to talk about being "decent human beings." Well, decent human beings are not pathological narcissists. Pathological narcissists are not decent human beings; they only care about themselves. Even their actions that look as though they are helping others, are only to further their own agenda and gain. For example; your ignorant, uneducated, know-nothing Liberal bigots like to put on shows of defense for the "downtrodden" and "oppressed," in the name of "tolerance" and "inclusiveness," yet they are downtrodding and oppressing Christians while being intolerant and exclusive of them. These people do not actually care about the various groups of people they are pretending to support. They are only supporting them in order to further their own agenda.

Narcissus, of Greek mythology, was in love with himself, and would gaze at himself in the mirror. It is his character, personality, and behaviour that narcissism comes from. The majority of people you know—family, friends, neighbours, co-workers, etc.—are all pathological narcissists. They are in love with themselves. They are infatuated and obsessed with themselves. Their ego ruthlessly pursues their own selfish gain in all forms of gratification, dominance, and ambition. If you honestly examine yourself, you can see the areas in your life where pathological narcissism rears its ugly head. If you honestly assess those around you and how they interact and treat others, you will see rampant pathological narcissism. Once you know what it is, you will see it everywhere!

Pathological narcissism is not healthy. What is the cure for this? At least for self-professing Christians? "Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for he interests of others" (Philippians 2:3-4). "Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor" (Romans 12:10). "Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those without strength and not just please ourselves" (Romans 15:1).

Look for the pathological narcissism that exists within yourself, ask God for help in eradicating it from your life, and do things toward that end. Let the lost wallow in the depths of pathological narcissism. Christians are to be set apart and separate from the world, making a noticeable difference. Love one another just as Christ Jesus loved the church and gave Himself up for her. "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13). Pathological narcissism is the crop of the devil. Cut it down, rip it out, and sew agape (sacrificial, unconditional) love in its place.

Islam: Spawn of Satan

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." —Edmund Burke

"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent." —Edmund Burke

Islam is not a religion, and it certainly is not a religion of "peace." What Muslims mean when they say that, is that after Islam has conquered the world, then there will be peace. Islam is a political system, much like Nazism, Marxism, Communism, etc., bent on world domination. These totalitarian political systems tend to fill the void of religion in people's lives by directing people's natural inclination of worshiping something toward their system or a person of that system. In North Korea, the people are made to worship Kim Jong Un as if he were a god. Every house has a picture of him on the wall and they are to bow to it daily.

Islamists claim that they do not murder the innocent. But is this true? According to Islamic beliefs, we are all Muslims. We were all born as Muslims but then went astray. According to the Qur'an, anyone who leaves Islam is guilty of apostasy. What does the Qur'an and the Hadith say the punishment for apostasy is? Death! So every innocent woman and child that Islamist Muslims have murdered is not, in their eyes, innocent. They are deserters of Islam. This does not only include children, but also infants!

Only ignorant, uneducated idiots attempt to call intelligent people this meaningless and made-up term "Islamophobe." Who are these idiots? They are left-wing liberally-tolerant know-nothing bigots. I own a copy of the Qur'an. It was given to me by a Muslim co-worker many years ago. I have read it. I have highlighted it and marked it with notations for future reference when witnessing to Muslims. Have any of these ignorant, uneducated idiots done that? No! But those of us who know what Islam stands for and is about, they mindlessly attempt to call us this meaningless and made-up term "Islamophobe." If ignorance is bliss, these idiots are living in paradise.

Let us make a correction to this term. If you want to call anyone an "Islamophobe," do so to those cowards who are afraid to speak up and speak the truth about Islam because they actually fear Islam. That would be a correct use of the term. Arachnophobia is having a fear of spiders. Ergo, Islamophobia would be having a fear of Islam—not those who speak out against its evils.

Sarah Haider is co-founder of Ex-Muslims of North America. She was born in Pakistan and grew up as a practicing Shia Muslim. She is an ex-Muslim. As Sarah Haider has said, "'Islamophobia' is a meaningless term. It serves to confuse and muddle two very different forms of intolerance, based on two very different reasons toward which there should be two very different reactions." She goes on to say, "Sometimes it is claimed that the critique of religion is critique of the identity of the believer, and is therefore bigotry," which is complete and utter nonsense. Most Christians, at least genuine and mature Christians, understand that mockery and ridicule of Christianity has nothing to do with them, but with the mocker's own hatred for God. It is an attack on God—not the believer. And Christians, unlike Muslims, are intelligent enough to recognize this. Christians do not threaten to blow up your car or cut your head off or attempt to kill you in any other way for you having done such things. When cartoons are drawn making fun of Christ Jesus or Christianity, letters of offense might be written to those doing it, but they are never threatened. They have never been murdered by Christians for having done so, for having mocked their precious Saviour. Why? Because Christians are the only true tolerant people out there. Christians take a stand for the free speech of others, even when it attempts to mock and ridicule their beliefs. Yet the ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated Westerners would sooner "tolerate" and defend Islam than Christianity?!?!? Islam is not tolerant of other people's religions or beliefs: "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him!" (surah 3:85). The punishment for those who apostatize the Islamic religion is death! Islam wants to remove your freedom of speech. If you offend or insult Islam, they want to murder you. This is not "Islamophobia." This is not xenophobia. These are the facts!!!

What if every person's "identity" happened to be based upon their ideology? If you criticize their ideology, you are necessarily (according to modern thinking and the passing of mindless, idiotic laws) generating "hatred" toward these people. What would happen if you applied this type of mindless thinking to everything? What if Christians suddenly decided that criticism of Christianity was a form of "hate" against those who chose to "identify" that way? What if Hinduism suddenly decided that criticism of their system was a deeply offensive form of "racism" against the Hindu people? Sarah Haider continues, "[Those who] believe themselves to be supporting tolerance, what they are actually supporting is the religious right of the East." Funny; ignorant, unintelligent, and uneducated Westerners will defend Islam in this way, but they will not support Judaism in this way. Why is that? How is it that violence against Muslims since 9/11 in the USA is at an all-time low, and yet violence against Jews world-wide is at an all-time high? Not to speak anything of the violence against Christians, which is on the rise in the West, who are systematically slaughtered world-wide, especially in Middle-Eastern countries. Families or family members convert to Christianity and they are murdered by their own family, relatives, friends, and neighbours.

Sarah Haider continues, "To someone who opposes the most foundational liberal principle, the freedom of expression, in order to protect the sensibilities of this Islamist religious right, is a liberal only in name. In fact, what kind of person holds two different groups of people accountable to two different standards of acceptable behaviour but a bigot?" Your left-wing Liberal is precisely that—a know-nothing bigot. Sadly, many Westerners are ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated know-nothing bigots who are only "tolerant" of the supposed "underdogs" while being intolerant of everything else. These people are fork-tongued, double-minded hypocrites.

How is it that even when ex-Muslims, who grew up under the tyranny and oppression of Islam, try to warn Westerners about the dangers of Islam, the left-wing Liberal bigots deliberately ignore them and attempt to label them as "Islamophobes"? The Liberal West did pretty much the same thing when many Russians tried warning them about voting Barack Obama in as President. The know-nothing Liberal bigots essentially told the Russians that they did not have a clue what they were talking about, despite having lived it for the past 60 years or so. The ignorance of the Liberal West is a gangrenous cancer.

You would think that the first people who would be willing to take a stand against Islam and expose it for what it truly is would be the feminists. Why? Because under Islam, livestock have more value than women. Women are considered less intelligent than men. In fact, where witnesses are required, two women are equal to a single man. Surah 2:223 states, "Your wives are your fields; go into your fields whenever you please." In many Islamic countries, women have had their genitalia mutilated. This is especially true in the Horn of Africa, where over 90% of the women have had their genitalia mutilated. Their clitoris has been cut out, their inner labia cut off, and the outer labia sewn together to leave an opening no bigger than their anus. Unfortunately, the feminists are as ignorant and uneducated as everybody else on this subject. No, this is not an "African" problem, this is an Islamic problem. Much of it happens in African Muslim countries, but it is also happening in other Muslim countries, too. Do not be ignorant of this fact!

There are three main things you should know about Islam:

1. Allah is a demon god, not even a real god at all.
2. Muhammad (or Mohammad), may he be damned, is a pedophile and a false prophet.
3. The Qur'an is a collection of ravings made by a lunatic madman.

If Islam wants to put a fatwa on my head, go for it. I will not retract the truth and I will not live in fear. Since the only language Muslims seem to understand is brutal force, if you dare come at me like a man, I will put you down! But we all know Muslims are cowards and will only come at you like cowards. They have no honour.

When your "faith" causes you to murder innocent women and children by bombing churches, schools, malls, restaurants, train/bus stations, etc., yes, you are a savage. These actions are not the result of a few "radicals" or "extremists." This is what the Qur'an teaches. This is what the Hadith teaches. This is what Islam teaches. Quit burying your head in the sand and ignoring the facts like an emotionally manipulated mindless idiot. "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him!" (surah 3:85). You either accept Islam or you are dead. That is their mindset. 

How is it that Islam is granted "religious" rights within schools and the work force that Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, etc., are not granted? Why are they granted their own curriculum while Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Zoroastrianists, etc., are not? Why does our government want to make it illegal to speak out against Islam? By passing such a law, our government is instituting Sharia Law. Sharia Law states that you don't question Islam, you don't speak against Islam, you don't offend Islam, you don't insult Islam. But it is fine to question, speak against, offend, and insult Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, etc. If it should be illegal to speak out against Islam, then it should also be made illegal to speak out against Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, etc. What happened to the Liberal left's "tolerance" and "inclusiveness"? Oh, wait, that is right, it was all a crock. Everything is tolerable and inclusive except for Christianity. Stop accommodating Islam!!! If they reside in your country, they are to live by your country's laws and conduct themselves accordingly. If they do not like it, they can go back to their own country and do things however they want there.

The below quote has been attributed to the Australian Prime Minister, Julia Gillard. It may or may not be a hoax. Nevertheless, the words and spirit it conveys are true and should be embraced by every English-speaking country. If Muslims want to live in our countries, they should have to abide by our rules just as we would have to do if we wanted to live in their countries.

IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT . . .
Take It Or Leave It.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.
This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.
We speak mainly ENGLISH; not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!
Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact; because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.
We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.
This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.
If you aren’t happy here, then LEAVE. We didn’t force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.”

Sharia Law has no place in English-speaking countries, or any other country for that matter. If Muslims desire Sharia Law, let them return to their own morally and spiritually bankrupt countries and live it out there. Quit trying to enslave the rest of the world with your hate and corruption. If we went into these other countries, such as Muslim countries, we would be expected to do things their way. Why, when they come to our countries, do we step aside and allow them to do whatever they want, however they want? The police have even been told not to interfere, for fear of being labeled "racist." In English-speaking countries, the natural English-speaking citizens are treated as if they were the minority.

Muslims lie and attempt to tell people that they worship the same God as Christians, but simply call Him a different name. Is this true? No! My God tells me to "Love your enemies and do good to them." The Muslims' god tells them to murder everybody—Jews, Christians, and pagans: smite the unbeliever (surah 47:4); fight the people of the book—Christians (surah 9:29); fight and slay pagans (surah 9:5); don't be friends with Jews and Christians (surah 5:51); kill any man who leaves Islam (surah 4:89—so much for freedom of religion: "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him!" [surah 3:85]). Those are just a handful of the many verses that command them to do such things—and that's not even looking at the Hadith.

Anything that comes out of the mouth of an Islamic Muslim is not to be trusted or believed. They are encouraged to lie and are commended for lying. The Qur'an says in surahs 2:225, 16:106, and 66:2 that lying is acceptable. The Qur'an also states that Allah is the greatest of deceivers. In opposition to this, in the Bible the 9th Commandment says "Thou shall not bear false witness." In other words, Do not lie! The Bible tells us that "God cannot lie" and that "God is not a man that He should lie." God cannot lie because it contradicts and is contrary to His character , nature, and being, which is truth, righteousness, and holiness. Lying goes against all three of these. The Bible also tells us that "Lying lips are an abomination to God" and "All liars will have their part in the Lake of Fire." Further, Jesus, Whose words are true, said that Satan is the Father of Lies. So if Allah is the greatest of deceivers, then Allah is clearly Satan.

Islamists are xenophobes, having a fear of strangers and foreigners. They fear Western culture. Yet they want to use our culture for their own gain. When are Westerners going to wake up and take a stand?  Or are they going to continue being blind and ignorant until we are all enslaved under Sharia Law? Start using your brains, people!

Veritaphobia

Veritaphobia is the fear of truth. The Urban Dictionary provides these definitions:

1. Displaying hesitation or refusal to admit or recognize that something is true, or to accept the concept of truth itself. Usually born out of fear of offending someone or being held accountable to something constant.
2. Dismissal of the existence of absolutes.
3. Degradation of people who profess something as true or untrue.
4. Being willfully in denial. Gives rise to constant skepticism and doubt of everything.

Have you ever noticed that if you dare attempt to engage in a discussion with these people regarding real science (verifiable facts and evidence, what you can test and observe), the reality concerning Islam, the depravity of homosexuality, the verifiable validity of the Bible, the Christian religion, or the blatant stupidity of the Liberals by demonizing certain people while screaming "tolerance" for others (having different standards of acceptable behaviour for different groups of people), they suddenly "don't care" and are not interested and will immediately abandon the conversation? For some of them, their tactic is to even attack your character and demonize you.

Is it not interesting how these people will voice their own personal opinion on the subject first and then purposefully and deliberately bow out of the discussion without granting you the courtesy of respectfully listening to what you have to say? This is because these people are allodoxophobes—they have a fear of opinions, specifically those that are not their own—and alethephobes—they have a fear of hearing the truth. They are afraid of that which they do not know, and are not willing to learn about it. Classic veritaphobia.

These people are also gnosiophobes, having a fear of knowledge; sophophobes, having a fear of learning; deitiphobes, having a fear of God or a deity; and theophobes, having a fear of God or religion. Most of the stuff these people spew is hearsay; nonsense they have either heard or read from an equally ignorant and uneducated source. Rather than be corrected and learn the truth, their veritaphobia keeps them from ever having to do so or be so. They know absolutely nothing about the topic at hand, yet will argue tooth and nail against those who clearly do know something about the topic. If ignorance is bliss, these people are living in paradise.

Trying to dialogue with a person who is of the Liberal mentality can be extremely taxing and often futile. They do not have an open mind. They are not willing to learn the facts. These people are ignorant, uneducated know-nothing bigots and are fork-tongued, double-minded hypocrites. Be sure you are not casting your pearls before swine.

“Do not speak in the hearing of a fool, For he will despise the wisdom of your words.” Proverbs 23:9

We must stand up for Truth. As children of God, we have the Holy Spirit within us. He is Truth, He will guide us into Truth, and He will impart Truth to us. Whether our words are received or not, we must speak them! We must learn the truth, we must speak the truth, and we must stand for the truth!

"You will know the Truth, and the Truth will make you free." John 8:32

Homosexuality vs The Freedom of Expression

"Homophobia" is a meaningless term. It serves only to confuse and muddle the truth by attempting to silence those who speak of the dangers and perversion of homosexuality. What if every person's "identity" happened to be based upon their own personal ideology? According to modern idiotic thinking and the passing of mindless idiotic laws, if you criticize someone's ideology, you are necessarily generating "hatred" toward that person. Have we become so thin-skinned and wussified that we cannot handle someone criticizing our ideologies? What would happen if you applied this type of mindless thinking to everything? If you pay attention to the news, you can already see pedophiles and zoophiliacs applying the same fallacious nonsense that the homosexuals have used in the past. Those who believe themselves to be supporting "tolerance" are in reality actually supporting intolerance of the freedom of expression.

Someone who opposes the most foundational liberal principle, the freedom of expression (as found in America's First Amendment and Canada's Charter of Human Rights), in order to protect the sensibilities of homosexuals and other perverts like them, is a Liberal only in name. What kind of person holds two different groups of people accountable to two different standards of acceptable behaviour other than a bigot? Your left-wing Liberal is precisely that—a know-nothing bigot. Sadly, many Westerners are ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated know-nothing bigots who are only "tolerant" of the supposed "underdogs" while being intolerant of everything and everyone else. These people are fork-tongued, double-minded hypocrites.

The problem is, that Westerners suffer from an over-developed sense of the White Knight syndrome. They want to step up and defend the downtrodden, which is admirable in and of itself. The sad and unfortunate thing is that because Westerners suffer from an over-developed sense of the White Knight syndrome, they have been deliberately and purposefully manipulated emotionally by homosexuals and other perverts like them. You want ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated Westerners to support whatever depravity you are into? Make yourself appear to be the victim. You can see the same thing starting to happen with pedophiles and zoophiliacs. Westerners have been brainwashed by the use of illogical fallacious arguments that tug at their heart strings. If these ignorant, unintelligent, uneducated know-nothing leftist bigots would pick up and read some of the homosexual manifestos and such, they would see who the true oppressors actually are. When you have a less-than 2% world population telling the other 98% of the world population what they can think, say, and believe, you have a problem. That is exactly and precisely what is taking place by homosexuals and their supporters today.

Like fools, Westerners are falling in line behind them to support them and their perverse lifestyle. Even several churches are starting to abandon common sense, logic, and the Bible in order to get behind these people. They are bowing to the golden idol. Homosexuality and the left-wing Liberal's concept of "inclusion" and "tolerance" are the persecution that is coming upon the church in the Western world. Soon it will become very apparent who is and who is not a genuine Christian. Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who refused to bow down to the golden idol erected by Nebuchadnezzar, the genuine Christian will refuse to bow down to the homosexual and leftist agendas. Genuine Christians know the voice of God and follow Him in faithful obedience. His Word, the Bible, directs and guides their lives. The so-called professing "Christian" who rejects that for a changing society is no Christian at all!

"Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE, and said, 'FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH'? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate." Matthew 19:4-6

"You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination." Leviticus 18:22

"If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them." Leviticus 20:13

"For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error." Romans 1:26-27
 

"We know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully, realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God." 1 Timothy 1:8-11

"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 effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God." 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
