Evil Hates The Light

John 3:20 "For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved." People need to understand that God is not pleased with sinfulness whether by His own or those that are not His. God continually warned the Israelite not to sin, not to serve this world and it’s evil and the Israelites continually ignored God and His words of warning. God has boldly warned us that we cannot serve to masters (God and mammon) Matt. 6:24 "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." And the reason is that one opposes the other. This world system is controlled by Satan and therefore it opposes God in every way. If a believer in Christ gets much involved with the world or the things of it they will oppose God and His Holiness. Evil hates light and if one walks in the darkness of this world they also will oppose God and His Holiness whether they believe they do or not. The greatest examples are the religious institutions call churches, they (as sad as it is to say) oppose God. They serve themselves instead of God and this is the reason they do not properly worship God and His Holiness. This is the reason they accept any wind of doctrine instead of truth. Most of them will even admit that they do not teach or serve doctrine, well the definition of doctrine is instruction in scripture, therefore they openly admit that they do not teach or believe instruction from Gods word. How can a believer understand God and His will if they are not taught instruction in the scriptures. Even Jesus Christ admitted in John 7:16 "Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me." that He taught doctrine and it was Gods doctrine. Now we can clearly see why these worldly religious institutions called “churches” are full of scripturally clueless people. This is why Paul said in Ephesians 4:14 “That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;” that people will believe anything taught by man as truth even though God had declared that they would change the truth into a lie. Romans 1:25 "Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen." This horrible change of truth into a lie caused man to serve the creature instead of God which is exactly what you get in these “churches” (so to speak). One cannot hide behind their membership in one of these religious institutions because it is sinful and God said "...ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out." Numbers 32:23 God in our text scripture told us "For every one that doeth evil hateth the light…” or they hate the truth and even despise it because they have changed Gods truth into a lie and love the lie more than the truth. God also said in our text scripture “…neither cometh to the light…” they will become satisfied believing the lie of Satan and will not return to the truth and the reason is they have come to hate the truth. God finished our text scripture with these words “…lest his deeds should be reproved." The word “reproved” means – to discover a lie – and this is the reason; they have been lead into lies and untruths therefore repentance is unlikely. They will hate those who attempt to warn them and despise them for trying to tell them. This is why they sit in these religious places of untruth, as deniers of Gods truths as though it is truth, all the time singing their Contemporary music, waving their hands, believing any wind of “truth” as long as it is not the truth of God, shouting “we will not believe nor teach doctrine.” Believing that some how they are pleasing God. If you are a believer of Christ and are in one of these places of religious worship; come on back to where the truth is taught and a Sovereign God is truly worshiped. before it is to late.

Could The Future Religion Of The World Be Islam?

Rev 6:1 - 2 "And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. (2.) And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer." As the first seal of seven is opened by Jesus Christ "...Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?” Revelation 5:2 we see the white horse who’s rider was (I believe) an imitation of Jesus Christ which is the anti-christ, which is Satan. I believe the true Christ will appear also on a white horse but not till Revelation 19:11 "And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war." Satan is an imitator of Christ as he comes to take control of the entire world. 2 Thessalonians 2:3 - 4 "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; (4.) Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God." He will bring with him a religion along with his own religious ruler called “The False Prophet” who it is believed will convert and control the religion of the time. My question is what religion will this be? Will it be a form of Christianity or will it be another religion altogether that has rivaled Christianity for decades? I ask the question “could the future religion of the world be Islam” because it is the most popular religion of our day. If it is then this would explain the open hatred for the two witnesses that will rise from the dead. The hatred is so bad that once these two men are allowed to be killed that great rejoicing will be in the world. "And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth." Revelation 11:10 If Islam is the religion of the tribulation period it would make a lot of sense because it is such a growing and powerful force on the earth. We do know that it and what is called “Christianity” holds about 4 billion of the 5 – 6 billion of the world’s total population. We also know that what is called “Christianity” in America and the rest of the world are growing weaker all the time and Islam is growing stronger. I do not mean in numbers but in biblical doctrine, “Christianity” in America and the world are known as compromisers to make people happy. A weaker religion means they would be more subject to a take over and that take over would be a much stronger Islam. Islam has taken over Egypt and is slowly taking over the most powerful nation in the world called America. While America remains the most powerful nation in the world she is growing weaker by the year. As America continues to allow Islam in she is attempting to cast out Christianity making it and Jehovah God the most hated things. If Christianity is going to be continually removed by so many, then it will be replaced by something and that something could be Islam. Our systems, such as our government and courts already adhere to Islam laws such as Sharia law also known as "Islamic law". Our own Supreme Court is leaning toward world law instead of constitutional law, and if President Obama is allowed to pick one more Justice to replace one of the five conservative justices it will be set to accept Sharia law. We have a weak Christianity religion in America (out side of the stronger churches such as ours) that will accept anything. I look at the services today and see anything goes, and anything is accepted; there is not a foundation in them anymore. The Lord referred then as what we here in Texas call tumble weeds, which is a weed without roots that is carried wherever the wind blows. "That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;" Ephesians 4:14 This is just a thought and if you disagree then so be it.
