Sound the Alarm!


 Sound the Alarm!

                    It may be shocking to some but the naked truth is on your calendar. The United States of America has declared the month of June 2023 Pride Month intending for its citizens, including the marginalized evangelical Christians, to celebrate what God has declared in the Bible to be abominations in thought, word, and deed. (The shorthand definition of these abominations is LGBTQ and variations thereof!)  One wonders if there are any “Christian leaders” in America’s religious and political systems who can and will sound the alarm from God’s Word. Note these passages: Proverbs 6:16-19, “There are six things that the Lord hates, Yes seven that are an abomination to Him:“haughty eyes . . . .”” Proverbs 16:5, “Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord; Assuredly, he will not go unpunished.” For those who mock God and His threat,” Consider Proverbs 16:18, “Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.” This has both individual as well as national application.  Destruction refers to absolute ruin/collapse as does its parallel term “stumbling (= fall).” For a number of years the culture in America has toyed with and finally cast away its “moral compass” found in the Bible. No one, Christians as well as non-Christians, will be exempt when divine judgment falls. May our churches and the evangelical Christians everywhere sound the alarm whenever and wherever we can. The only “escape route” individually and nationally is to return to the Bible, believe it, and identify with Jesus Christ who alone can save. Culturally safe sermons and teachings plus entertainment models in many churches, cannot avoid the inevitable. Let us all sound the alarm! Jesus is coming again and perhaps sooner than we think! “Behold, now is ‘THE ACCEPTABLE TIME,’ behold, now is ‘THE DAY OF SALVATION’” (2 Corinthians 6:2b).
