Sabbath Meeting Transcript

SOMETIMES WE HAVE OUR PERSPECTIVES AND HE HAS HIS PERSPECTIVE AND OUR PERSPECTIVE COULD BE EASILY INFLUENCED BY CULTURE AND WHAT WE VIEW AS CULTURALLY ACCEPTABLE AND CULTURALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

AND SO WE'RE GOING TO LOOK INTO THE SCRIPTURES TO SEE WHAT YAHWEH HIMSELF CONSIDERS TO BE ACCEPTABLE AND NOT ACCEPTABLE IN HIS EYES.

SO IN OUR EFFORTS TO FIND THIS TRUTH WE'VE GOT TO BE CAREFUL THAT WE ARE NOT BEING INFLUENCED BY THE WORLD OR BY THE CULTURE THAT WE LIVE IN OR BY OUR UPBRINGING BECAUSE THERE ARE CERTAIN SINS WHICH ARE REGULARLY COMMITTED HERE IN THE PLACES WE GREW UP THAT ARE VERY COMMON PLACE

AND IT HAS A WAY OF DESENSITIZING US TO HOW THEY ARE.

YOU KNOW 50 YEARS AGO THE THINGS WHICH ARE ON THE TELEVISION TODAY WOULD BE SUCH AN ABOMINATION, THE PUBLIC WOULD REVOLT, THERE WOULD PROBABLY BE RIOTS IN THE STREETS AND CRIMINAL OBSCENITY CHARGES WOULD BROUGHT BEFORE THE PROGRAMMERS... BUT NOT TODAY.

TODAY IT SEEMS TO ME THERE'S A THIRST FOR MORE AND MORE SHOCK TV ESPECIALLY IF IT'S REALITY, AND ANYTHING THAT FULFILLS THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH.

SO WHAT A CHANGE JUST 50 YEARS CAN MAKE... ONLY 50 YEARS.

AND SO THINGS LIKE THIS SHOULD CAUSE US TO WONDER: WHAT THINGS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT INTO OUR CULTURE AND INTO OUR FAITH THE LAST 1900 YEARS THAT ORIGINALLY WOULD HAVE BEEN SHOCKING AND ABOMINABLE BUT THEN LATER JUST KIND OF MADE ITSELF... YOU KNOW.. IT'S WAY INTO THE FAITH.. AND BECAME NORMAL... AND ACCEPTED.

WHAT IS THE TRUTH AND WHAT IS THE FAITH THAT WAS TRULY ONCE DELIVERED TO THE SAINTS. THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO FIND OUT.

AND HAVE WE THROUGH OUR CULTURAL INFLUENCE AND UPBRINGING LOST A PROPER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT YAHWEH CONSIDERS TO BE ABOMINABLE?

AND MAN'S OPINION ON WHAT IS AN ABOMINATION IS NOT NECESSARILY YAHWEH'S OPINION.

AND I'LL TELL YA.. YAHWEH IS NOT GOING TO BE CONSULTING MAN ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT.

HE HAS HIS OWN STANDARDS THAT WE ARE EXPECTED TO SUBJECT OURSELVES TO.

YAHWEH'S WORD IS TRUTH. HIS JUDGMENTS ARE RIGHT.

AND SO SOME THINGS MAY NOT SEEM TO BE AN ABOMINATION TO MOST PEOPLE BUT IF YAHWEH CALLS THEM AN ABOMINATION THEN THEY ARE AN ABOMINATION.

AND SO WHILE WE DO NOT WANT TO SIN, WE WANT TO BE PARTICULARLY CAREFUL THAT WE DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT IS CONSIDERED TO BE AN ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH.

ABOMINATIONS ARE THE SINS WHICH ARE THE WORST OF THE WORST.

NOW IN HEBREW THE WORD THAT'S TRANSLATED ABOMINATION MEANS "SOMETHING DETESTABLE."

AN ABOMINATION IS SOMETHING THAT YAHWEH UTTERLY ABHORS AND CONSIDERS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.

AND SO THE WAY TO FIND OUT WHAT YAHWEH CONSIDERS TO BE AN ABOMINATION IS TO READ THE SCRIPTURES AND SEE. AND SO WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT SOME OF THESE SCRIPTURES THAT DEAL WITH ABOMINATIONS,

THINGS THAT YAHWEH CONSIDERS TO BE TOTALLY ABHORRENT AND ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING AND DETESTABLE. WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT THESE SCRIPTURES.

AND THE FIRST ONE WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT, I'M SURE, IS GOING TO BE A SHOCK TO MANY PEOPLE. LET'S LOOK AT THIS. LEVITICUS CHAPTER 11 IN VERSE 10. IT SAYS:

Leviticus 11:10 - And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:

Leviticus 11:11 - They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

Leviticus 11:12 - Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

Leviticus 11:13 - And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,

Leviticus 11:14 - And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;

Leviticus 11:15 - Every raven after his kind;

Leviticus 11:16 - And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,

Leviticus 11:17 - And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,

Leviticus 11:18 - And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,

Leviticus 11:19 - And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

Leviticus 11:20 - All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.

AND SCROLLING DOWN TO VERSE 41:

Leviticus 11:41 - And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.

AND IN VERSE 4, LEVITICUS 11 IT SAYS:

Leviticus 11:4 - Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

AND SO THE THINGS WHICH ARE UNCLEAN ARE CONSIDERED TO BE AN ABOMINATION AND THOSE WHO EAT THEM ARE CONSIDERED BY YAHWEH TO BE AN ABOMINATION.

LEVITICUS 11:45 SAYS:

Leviticus 11:43 - Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.

AND LEVITICUS 20:25 SAYS:

Leviticus 20:25 - Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.

VERY INTERESTING.

AND SO THE EATING OF THINGS ARE AN ABOMINATION. WE'RE TO CONSIDER THE MEATS FROM THESE ANIMALS TO BE ABOMINABLE. WE'RE NOT EVEN TO TOUCH THEIR DEAD BODIES.

AND WE'RE NOT TO EAT THEM OBVIOUSLY. AND IF WE DO EAT THEM YAHWEH SAYS THAT YOU MAKE YOUR SOUL ABOMINABLE.

AND YOU MAKE YOURSELVES ABOMINABLE!

NOW SOME PEOPLE DON'T THINK, WELL... MUCH ABOUT EATING AND THINGS LIKE THAT. THEY SAY "WELL YOU'RE JUST EATING THINGS YOU KNOW...THATS.."

THEY DON'T THINK THAT'S A BIG DEAL, BUT WHAT WE BRING INTO OUR BODIES IS VERY IMPORTANT! IT'S THE TEMPLE OF YAHWEH IS IT NOT?

DOESN'T IT SAY THAT OUR BODIES ARE THE LIVING TEMPLE OF ELOHIM?

AND SO WHAT WE BRING INTO OUR BODIES WE ARE BRINGING INTO HIS TEMPLE.

THE TEMPLE OF THE RUACH HAQODESH, THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

AND I THINK IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, AND I KNOW I'M NOT, BUT IT WAS THE EATING OF SOMETHING FORBIDDEN THAT BROUGHT ABOUT THIS ENTIRE WORLD OF SIN AND DEATH THAT WE SEE TODAY.

AND SO WHAT WE EAT MOST PEOPLE TODAY MIGHT THINK "OH IT'S NO BIG DEAL."

BUT WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT WE EAT, WHAT WE BRING INTO THE TEMPLE OF YAHWEH. IT DOES MATTER. IT DOES.

WE DON'T WANT TO BE AN ABOMINATION TO HIM.

CAN YOU IMAGINE THIS, THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY.

ANTIOCHUS EPIPHANIES, HE WENT INTO THE TEMPLE AND SMEARED PIG FAT TO BRING DEFILEMENT TO YAHWEH'S TEMPLE. NOW WHAT ARE WE DOING WITH YAHWEH'S TEMPLE TODAY?

ARE WE STILL SMEARING THE PIG FAT ALL OVER THE VEINS AND WALLS OF OUR TEMPLE? THINK ABOUT THAT.

THAT'S VERY SERIOUS.

AND SO WE NEED TO TAKE SERIOUSLY WHAT YAHWEH TAKES SERIOUSLY.

AND WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL THAT WE ARE NOT PARTAKING OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE WORLD THAT WE LIVE IN TODAY.

OR WE MIGHT BECOME ABOMINABLE OURSELVES!

AND SO IT'S NOT BAD FOR US TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT THIS. IT'S GOOD!

IT'S A SIGN THAT WE WANT TO WALK IN HOLINESS. IT'S A SIGN THAT WE WANT TO BE A CLEAN AND HOLY PEOPLE TO YAHWEH THAT DO NOT MAKE THEMSELVES ABOMINABLE.

AND SO IN THE BOOK OF ISAIAH WE READ THAT YAHWEH CANNOT STAND THOSE WHO, AMONG OTHER THINGS, EAT THE THINGS WHICH ARE CALLED ABOMINATIONS. ISAIAH 65 VERSES 2 THROUGH 6 IT SAYS:

Isaiah 65:2 - I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;

Isaiah 65:3 - A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;

Isaiah 65:4 - Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

Isaiah 65:5 - Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.

Isaiah 65:6 - Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,

SO IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT THOSE WHO ARE BEING "HOLIER THAN THOU" IT IS THOSE THAT EAT SWINE'S FLESH AND CLAIM TO BE WALKING IN HOLINESS, AND THEY'RE NOT

AS WE SEE IN LEVITICUS 20:25, WE SHOULD PUT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLEAN AND UNCLEAN, AND WE SHOULD WALK IN HOLINESS.

AGAIN IN ISAIAH, LATER IN THE CHAPTER, CHAPTER 66, THERE WAS A PREDICTION GIVEN THAT YAHWEH IS GOING TO DESTROY THOSE WHO EAT SWINE'S FLESH IN THE VERY END TIMES WHEN YAHUSHUA RETURNS.

IN ISAIAH 66:16 IT SAYS:

Isaiah 66:16 - For by fire and by his sword will YAHWEH plead with all flesh: and the slain of YAHWEH shall be many.

NOW WE KNOW THAT YAHWEH IS GOING TO COME WITH FIRE THE SECOND TIME, RIGHT? AND BRING JUDGMENT UPON THE EARTH WITH FIRE THE SECOND TIME.

THE FIRST TIME WITH WATER THE SECOND TIME WITH FIRE. AND WE SEE IT, VERSE 17:

Isaiah 66:17 - They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith YAHWEH.

AND SO YAHWEH SAYS HE'S GOING TO DESTROY THOSE WHO EAT ABOMINATIONS.

NOW IF THESE THINGS ARE DONE AWAY WITH IN MESSIAH, WHY IS IT THAT YAHWEH'S DESTROYING THOSE WHO EAT THEM?

AND SO THESE SCRIPTURES OBVIOUSLY BEG THE QUESTION, IF YAHWEH SAYS THE EATING OF THESE THINGS ARE ABOMINABLE TO HIM, WHY WOULD HE TURN AROUND AND DO AWAY WITH THIS COMMANDMENT LATER AS IS COMMONLY TAUGHT?

THE ANSWER IS THAT HE DID NOT DO AWAY WITH THEM AND THESE VERSES ARE CLEAR EVIDENCE OF THAT.

IT'S ABOMINATION. IT WAS AN ABOMINATION. IT IS AN ABOMINATION.

YAHWEH'S THE SAME YESTERDAY TODAY AND FOREVER.

DOES IT REALLY MAKE SENSE THOUGH THAT THE EATING OF PORK IS SOMETHING YAHWEH CONSIDERS TO BE AN ABOMINATION, DISGUSTING, VILE, ABHORING AND DETESTABLE, AND ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING, MOMENTS BEFORE YAHUSHUA DIED AND RESURRECTED AND THEN INSTANTLY ALL THOSE THINGS ARE NO LONGER SO?

HOW CAN SOMETHING BE AN ABOMINATION IN ONE MINUTE AND NOT THE NEXT?

DID YAHWEH CHANGE?

HE CHANGE HIS MIND ON WHAT WAS CONSIDERED TO BE WRONG AND RIGHT?

I DON'T THINK SO.

THE REASON WHY THESE THINGS ARE NOT ABOMINABLE TO MOST PEOPLE TODAY IS BECAUSE THE EATING OF THESE THINGS ARE VERY COMMONPLACE.

IF NOBODY ON THE EARTH TODAY ATE PORK, AND SOME GUY WENT AND GOT HIMSELF A PIG AND STARTED EATING IT, I THINK MOST PEOPLE WOULD LOOK AT HIM AND SAY, "YOU ARE DISGUSTING!"

AND FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD THOSE WHO HAVE BUTCHERED PIGS, IT IS ONE OF THE MOST DISGUSTING THINGS YOU CAN IMAGINE. MUCH DIFFERENT FROM BUTCHERING A STEER OR SOMETHING CLEAN.

AND SO THE REASON WHY THESE THINGS ARE NOT ABOMINABLE IS BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE JUST GO ON ABOUT THEIR WAY AND DO AND EAT WHATEVER THEY THINK IS GOOD FOR THEM TO EAT.

NOW OUR CULTURE HAS A WAY OF INFLUENCING WHAT WE THINK IS IMPORTANT, WHAT WE THINK IS RIGHT OR WRONG, BUT WE CANNOT ALLOW THAT TO INFLUENCE US.

I MEAN LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED, IN THE 1980'S, REMEMBER IN THE 1980'S HOMOSEXUALITY WAS LAUGHED AT. IT WAS VIEWED AS SOMETHING ABOMINABLE AND DISGUSTING AND VILE. NOT ANYMORE.

NOW IT'S A VERY COMMON SIN AND IF YOU SPEAK AGAINST IT YOU'RE AN ABOMINATION. YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S GOING TO GET THE ARROW IN YOUR HEAD. YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S GOING TO BE SPOKEN AGAINST.

SEE HOW THINGS CAN CHANGE?

WE CAN'T LET WHAT THIS WORLD SAYS INFLUENCE WHAT WE BELIEVE TO BE VERY, VERY WRONG IN YAHWEH'S EYES.

AND SO PROVERBS 29 27 SAYS:

Proverbs 29:27 - An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.

SO THOSE WHO ARE DOING RIGHT, WE ARE AN ABOMINATION TO THEM!

AND THE THINGS WHICH ARE WRONG ARE AN ABOMINATION US, WHY? BECAUSE THEY'RE AN ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH.

AND SO THEY'RE GOING TO FIND US ABOMINABLE ONE DAY, MORE THAN LIKELY IN OUR LIFETIME.

THERE ARE GOING TO BE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO FIND US TO BE SO ABOMINABLE THEY WANT TO DO AWAY WITH OUR LIFE.

BECAUSE HE THAT IS UPRIGHT IN THE WAY IS AN ABOMINATION TO THE WICKED.

LEVITICUS 20 13, YAHWEH SAYS THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS AN ABOMINATION UNTO HIM:

Leviticus 20:13 - If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

SO HOW MUCH LONGER WILL YAHWEH ENDURE THESE ABOMINATIONS? LEVITICUS 20 22 THROUGH 26 IT SAYS:

Leviticus 20:22 - Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.

Leviticus 20:23 - And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

Leviticus 20:24 - But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am YAHWEH your Elohim, which have separated you from other people.

Leviticus 20:25 - Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.

Leviticus 20:26 - And ye shall be holy unto me: for I YAHWEH am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.

AND SO WE NEED TO BE AWARE THAT YAHWEH HAS SEPARATED US TO BE A HOLY PEOPLE UNTO HIM AND THAT WE DON'T GO AFTER THE WAYS OF THIS NATION THAT WE LIVE IN.

THE WORLD DOES NOT CARE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.

THEY'LL PUT PORK DERIVED PRODUCTS IN JUST ABOUT ANYTHING.

THEY'LL INJECT IT IN VARIOUS KINDS OF FOODS AND MEDICINES AND MANY BENIGN SOUNDING INGREDIENTS LIKE GLYCERINE, NATURAL FLAVORS, GELATIN, MONO AND DYGLYCERIDES, MONOSTEREATES, DIFFERENT THINGS ALL CAN CONTAIN PORK DERIVED INGREDIENTS.

IT'S FOUND IN SOAPS. A LOT OF YOUR BAR SOAPS ARE BASICALLY PIG FAT.

HOW CAN YOU WASH YOUR HANDS IN SOMETHING THAT'S UNCLEAN?

TOOTH PASTE--HOW CAN YOU CLEAN YOUR TEETH WITH SOMETHING THAT'S UNCLEAN?

EVEN BOUNTY PAPER TOWELS, PEOPLE WIPE THEIR HANDS AND MOUTH WITH, HAVE PORK DERIVED INGREDIENTS IN IT. HOW CAN YOU WIPE YOUR MOUTH WITH SOMETHING THAT'S UNCLEAN?

SEE THE WORLD DOESN'T CARE. THEY EVEN PUT IT IN BOUNCE FABRIC SOFTENER. THEY COAT YOUR CLOTHES IN IT. AND I THINK DOWNY IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN HAS UNCLEAN INGREDIENTS.

AND SO IT'S JUST, IT'S GOTTEN WAY, WAY PERVASIVE.

NOW IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO EAT THINGS THAT HAVE NO PORK DERIVED INGREDIENTS OR UNCLEAN DERIVED INGREDIENTS.

IN FACT IF YOU LOOK IN YOUR GROCERY STORES A LOT OF THE PACKAGES THERE WILL HAVE A U WITH A CIRCLE AROUND IT OR A K WITH A CIRCLE AROUND IT AND YOU CAN LOOK AT THOSE SIGNS AND THOSE ARE,

WHAT THOSE MEAN ARE THEY ARE SYMBOLS WHERE RABBIS, JEWISH RABBIS, HAVE GONE IN AND CHECKED THE INGREDIENTS IN THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS.

IT DOES NOT MEAN THEY JUST BLESSED IT AND IT'S UNCLEAN ANYWAY.

IT DOES MEAN THEY HAVE CHECKED IT TO MAKE SURE IT IS CLEAN.

AND IN THEIR OPINION IT IS CLEAN.

SO THEY EVEN GO SOMETIMES A LOT FURTHER THAN WE WOULD.

THEY CHECK THE GREASE IN THE BEARINGS OF THE ROLLERS THAT MOVE THE FOOD ALONG.

THEY DON'T WANT ANY PORK DERIVED INGREDIENT ANYWHERE IN THE WAREHOUSE.

AND THEY DON'T ACCEPT ANYTHING LESS THAN THAT.

IT DOESN'T MEAN THE COMPANY IS NECESSARILY FOLLOWING THE RULES, IT JUST MEANS THEY DO COME BY TO CHECK IT ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE FOLLOWING THE RULES BUT THEY GIVE THEM A HEADS UP.

AND SO I DON'T KNOW IT JUST SEEMS LIKE SOMETIMES YOU WONDER.. MAYBE WE JUST NEED TO GROW OUR OWN FOOD.

BUT WE NEED TO CARE ABOUT THESE THINGS.

AND WE NEED TO SUBMIT TO YAHWEH'S WORD AND BE DILIGENT TO AVOID THE THINGS WHICH HE CONSIDERS TO BE AN ABOMINATION.

AND THAT'S OKAY TO DO THAT.

NOW WE DON'T WANT TO GET SO EXTREME TO WHERE WE WON'T EVEN LEAVE OUR HOUSE AND WE WON'T SHAKE ANYBODY'S HAND OR WE WON'T .. YOU KNOW... GO OUT AND WITNESS FOR YAHWEH.

THAT'S THE EXTREME THAT THE JEWS HAD GONE TO IN THE FIRST CENTURY.

AND SO WE DON'T NEED TO DO THAT.

BUT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE ARE NOT EATING THINGS WHICH ARE UNCLEAN.

YAHWEH SAYS THE WHOLE EARTH IS DEFILED.

WE'RE GOING TO READ ABOUT THAT IN A MOMENT, BUT HERE IS AMONG THE REASONS WHY IT'S DEFILED.

LEVITICUS 18 22 THROUGH 26 IT SAYS:

Leviticus 18:22 - Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Leviticus 18:23 - Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.

Leviticus 18:24 - Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:

Leviticus 18:25 - And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.

Leviticus 18:26 - Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:

SO THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH OBVIOUSLY ARE DEFILED WITH THESE THINGS.

THE WHOLE EARTH IS DEFILED WITH THESE THINGS.

AND SO HOW LONG IS IT GOING TO BE BEFORE YAHWEH VISITS THE INIQUITY OF THE EARTH AND VOMITS OUT ITS' INHABITANTS? IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE GETTING MUCH BETTER.

WE DO KNOW JUDGMENT'S COMING, ISAIAH 24 VERSE 4 THROUGH 6 IT SAYS:

Isaiah 24:4 - The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.

Isaiah 24:5 - The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.

Isaiah 24:6 - Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

THERE'S THE FIRE.

THE EARTH IS DEFILED BECAUSE PEOPLE DO NOT CARE WHAT YAHWEH'S LAW SAYS.

THEY CHOOSE TO TRANSGRESS THE LAWS, CHANGE THE ORDINANCES, BREAK THE EVERLASTING COVENANT, AND SO MEN DEFILE THEMSELVES IN THE LAND WHEREIN THEY DWELL WITH THESE THINGS.

AND YAHWEH SAYS, HE'S GOING TO CLEANSE THE EARTH WITH FIRE, ISAIAH 24 19 THROUGH 21:

Isaiah 24:19 - The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.

Isaiah 24:20 - The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

Isaiah 24:21 - And it shall come to pass in that day, that YAHWEH shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.

SERIOUS WORDS.

BUT I ONCE READ, YOU KNOW, THE TSUNAMI THAT HAPPENED A FEW YEARS AGO, THE EARTHQUAKE WAS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH TO CREATE A SLIGHT WOBBLE IN THE EARTH'S ROTATION, TO QUOTE A SCIENTIST.

THIS MAY BE A SIGN OF THINGS TO COME.

WE NEED TO SEEK YAHWEH AND SEPARATE OURSELVES FROM THESE ABOMINATIONS.

NOW HERE'S A SCRIPTURE WHY IN CASE YOU MISSED IT THE LAST FEW WEEKS SHOWING WHY THE OBSERVANCE OF CHRISTMAS IS AN ABOMINATION; IT IS CERTAINLY ONE OF THEM.

DEUTERONOMY 12 29 THROUGH 32:

Deuteronomy 12:29 - When YAHWEH thy Elohim shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedest them, and dwellest in their land;

Deuteronomy 12:30 - Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their elohim, saying, How did these nations serve their elohim? even so will I do likewise.

Deuteronomy 12:31 - Thou shalt not do so unto YAHWEH thy Elohim: for every abomination to YAHWEH, which he hateth, have they done unto their elohim; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their elohim.

Deuteronomy 12:32 - What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.

YOU SHALL NOT DO SO UNTO YAHWEH YOUR ELOHIM

HE FINDS THEIR WORKS TO BE ABOMINABLE BECAUSE ALL IDOLATRY IS ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH.

EVEN THE IDOL ITSELF IS CALLED AN ABOMINATION.

DEUTERONOMY 27 VERSE 15:

Deuteronomy 27:15 - Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an abomination unto YAHWEH, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and putteth it in a secret place. And all the people shall answer and say, so be it.

DEUTERONOMY 32 16

Deuteronomy 32:16 - They provoked him to jealousy with strange elohim, with abominations provoked they him to anger.

YAHWEH DOES NOT LIKE IDOLS.

WE NEED TO WORSHIP HIM IN THE WAY HE DESIRES NOT IN THE WAYS THAT WERE INSPIRED BY OTHER RELIGIONS WITH THEIR VARIOUS IDOL WORSHIP THAT THEY DO.

AND SO WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE IDOLS HIDDEN IN OUR HEARTS OR IN OUR HOMES.

DEUTERONOMY 7 26 SAYS:

Deuteronomy 7:26 - Neither shalt thou bring an abomination into thine house, lest thou be a cursed thing like it: but thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is a cursed thing.

EZEKIEL 14 3:

Ezekiel 14:3 - Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them?

SO WE NEED TO RID OUR HEARTS AND OUR HOMES OF ALL IDOLATRY WHICH YAHWEH HATES.

IN THE VARIOUS FORMS OF MEDIA THAT PEOPLE USE TODAY THERE ARE VERY COMMON END ROADS FOR THIS. WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL THAT WE DO NOT PUT OUR WILL OR MANS WILL ABOVE YAHWEH'S WILL OR WE ARE SETTING UP AN IDOL IN OUR HEARTS AND BRINGING A STUMBLING BLOCK BEFORE OURSELVES.

WE ARE SETTING OURSELVES UP AS THE ELOHIM.

WE ARE IMITATING SATAN'S PRACTICES WHO WANTED TO BE ELOHIM HIMSELF.

SO WE'VE GOT TO BE CAREFUL THAT WE CLEANSE OUR HEARTS AND OUR HOMES OF IDOLATRY.

THESE THINGS ARE ABOMINATIONS.

OTHER THINGS WHICH ARE ABOMINATIONS, DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 18 VERSES 9 AND 10:

Deuteronomy 18:9 - When thou art come into the land which YAHWEH thy Elohim giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.

Deuteronomy 18:10 - There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.

MANY HOMES TODAY, I'M SAD TO SAY, ARE FILLED WITH VARIOUS FORMS OF SORCERY AND MAGIC.

HARRY POTTER WITCHCRAFT MANUALS ARE VERY POPULAR TODAY AND EVEN DISNEY MOVIES WHICH ARE "AWW JUST SUPPOSED TO BE FOR CHILDREN" THE MAGIC KINGDOM, ARE LOADED WITH THINGS THAT YAHWEH CALLS ABOMINATIONS!

IT'S NOT YAHWEH'S POWER THEY'RE DRAWING ON THERE, IT'S DEMONIC POWER!

AND THEY GLORIFY IT.

AND THEY PRESENT IT AS A STRUGGLE BETWEEN WHITE MAGIC AND BLACK MAGIC.

BUT THAT ISN'T THE WAY IT IS.

ALL MAGIC IS EVIL, IS ABOMINABLE TO YAHWEH.

AND WE NEED TO CLEANSE OUR HOMES FROM THESE THINGS.

IT IS A BATTLE BETWEEN YAHWEH AND ALL THOSE FORCES OF EVIL.

AND SO WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE THOSE THINGS IN OUR HOMES.

WE DEFINITELY DON'T WANT TO SET OUR CHILDREN IN FRONT OF THEM.

IN FACT, WHEN A TELEVISION IS TURNED ON TO THE WORLD'S PROGRAMMING TODAY, ABOMINATIONS ARE GOING TO ENTER YOUR HOME ON A REGULAR BASIS.

THERE'S JUST NO WAY AROUND IT.

THE WORLD DOES NOT CARE.

BUT OUR HOME OUGHT TO BE A SANCTUARY, A PLACE FOR THE DWELLING OF YAHWEH'S SPIRIT.

WE CAN'T ALLOW THESE THINGS TO COME IN AND CHASE AWAY HIS SPIRIT.

I SHOULDN'T SAY CHASE AWAY HIS SPIRIT, THAT'S NOT A VERY GOOD WAY OF PUTTING IT.

BUT YAHWEH DOES NOT WANT TO BE DWELLING IN A HOME WHERE WICKEDNESS IS WILLINGLY ALLOWED TO ENTER IN.

WE WANT YAHWEH'S SPIRIT TO BE IN OUR HOMES AND OUR HEARTS.

DEUTERONOMY 18 10 THROUGH 12:

Deuteronomy 18:10 - There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.

Deuteronomy 18:11 - Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.

Deuteronomy 18:12 - For all that do these things are an abomination unto YAHWEH: and because of these abominations YAHWEH thy Elohim doth drive them out from before thee.

SO WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE ANY PART WITH THESE THINGS. WE DON'T WANT TO WATCH THEM FOR ENTERTAINMENT CERTAINLY, LET ALONE READ THEIR BOOKS, AND LEARN THE WAY OF THE HEATHEN THEREBY.

YAHWEH CANNOT BEAR THESE ABOMINATIONS IN A LAND LET ALONE IN OUR OWN HOUSES.

REMEMBER THAT SAUL THE KING DIED SOON AFTER TRYING TO CONSULT SAMUEL THROUGH A MEDIUM.

PSYCHICS, PALM READERS, TAROT CARD READERS, MEDIUMS, OUIJA BOARDS, MAGIC THIS MAGIC THAT, THESE ARE ALL ABOMINATIONS TO YAHWEH.

MORE ABOMINATIONS, DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 22 VERSE 5:

Deuteronomy 22:5 - The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto YAHWEH thy Elohim.

WE DEFINITELY SEE THAT IN OUR AGE AND I THINK IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY, THE CURRENT HIP-HUGGER JEANS STYLE BASICALLY STARTED WHEN GIRLS STARTED WEARING THEIR BOYFRIENDS' PANTS.

AND THE LINE BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN'S CLOTHING SEEMS TO BE THINNING OUT MORE AND MORE OVER THE YEARS.

DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 23 VERSE 18:

Deuteronomy 23:18 - Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of YAHWEH thy Elohim for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto YAHWEH thy Elohim.

IT'S A MALE AND FEMALE PROSTITUTE MONEY. NOW THE HEATHEN DID THIS ON A REGULAR BASIS TO MAKE MONEY FOR THE TEMPLE. YAHWEH WANTS NO PART OF SUCH THINGS. YAHWEH DOES NOT WANT MONEY THAT WAS ACQUIRED THROUGH SIN IN HIS TITHE.

I'VE HEARD THAT SOME PEOPLE WHO STRUGGLE WITH WORKING ON THE SABBATH WILL WORK ON THE SABBATH AND THEN GIVE MONEY THAT THEY MADE WHILE WORKING ON THE SABBATH AS A TITHE TO YAHWEH.

THIS OUGHT NOT BE SO. YAHWEH SAYS DO NOT BRING THESE SIMPLE THINGS OF MONEY ACQUIRED THROUGH SIN INTO HIS TITHE, OR INTO HIS HOUSE.

WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS REMEMBER THE SABBATH TO KEEP IT HOLY AND TO SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF YAHWEH AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THEN HE WILL ADD ALL THE OTHER THINGS THAT WE NEED; THAT'S A PROMISE; WE JUST NEED TO BELIEVE THAT.

OTHER ABOMINATIONS, DEUTERONOMY 24 VERSES 1 THROUGH 4:

Deuteronomy 24:1 - When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.

Deuteronomy 24:2 - And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife.

Deuteronomy 24:3 - And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife;

Deuteronomy 24:4 - Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before YAHWEH: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which YAHWEH thy Elohim giveth thee for an inheritance.

YOU KNOW THERE ARE CHRISTIAN DIVORCE AND REMARRIAGE DOCTRINES OUT THERE WHICH PROMOTE THE IDEA OF A PERSON GOING BACK TO THEIR ORIGINAL SPOUSE, THEIR VERY FIRST SPOUSE, MAYBE THEY GOT MARRIED 2 OR 3 TIMES.

AND THEY SAY "WELL NONE OF THESE OTHER MARRIAGES WERE VALID AND THEREFORE YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL ONE"

BUT YAHWEH CALLS THAT AN ABOMINATION.

OF COURSE THEY DON'T FOLLOW THAT BECAUSE THEY THINK THE OLD TESTAMENT IN THEIR MIND ACCORDING TO ONE OF THEM, AN AUTHOR BY THE NAME OF DANIEL WEBB, I BELIEVE, SAYS "THE LAW IS DISPOSED OF."

MY UNDERSTANDING OF DIVORCE REMARRIAGE, YOU CAN READ ABOUT IT, http://www.eliyah.com/family/divorceremarriage.html - IT'S LINKED FROM THE MAIN PAGE.

OTHER ABOMINATIONS, DEUTERONOMY 25:15:

Deuteronomy 25:15 - But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which YAHWEH thy Elohim giveth thee.

PROVERBS 11:1:

Proverbs 11:1 - A false balance is abomination to YAHWEH: but a just weight is his delight.

AND SO CHEATING OTHERS OUT OF MONEY IS OBVIOUSLY AN ABOMINATION, ESPECIALLY IF THAT PERSON IS ALREADY POOR.

THE SCAMS THAT WE SEE TODAY, ESPECIALLY ON THE INTERNET ARE VERY RAMPANT.

PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO STEAL FROM YOU CONSTANTLY, SENDING YOU E-MAILS SAYING, "HEY WE'RE YOUR BANK GIVE US YOUR INFORMATION, WE WANT TO STEAL FROM YOU."

AND THERE'S PEOPLE WHO E-MAIL BRETHREN REGULARLY CLAIMING TO BE FROM NIGERIA AND WEALTHY, THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE MONEY BY STEALING FROM YOU.

AND I KNOW OF PEOPLE, I'M NOT AWARE OF ANY BELIEVERS, BUT I KNOW OF SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN MILKED OUT OF 10'S OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS THROUGH THOSE THINGS AND THEY CAN'T GET IT BACK, IT'S IN ANOTHER COUNTRY.

THESE THINGS ARE AN ABOMINATION UNTO YAHWEH. PROVERBS 11 VERSE 20:

Proverbs 11:20 - They that are of a froward heart are abomination to YAHWEH: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.

THE PEOPLE OF OUR GENERATION HAVE OBVIOUSLY GAINED A PERVERSE AND UNRULY HEART. THEY DID NOT ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT YAHWEH CALLS ABOMINABLE, AND UNTIL WE DO OUR HEARTS ARE GOING TO BE PERVERTED.

DEUTERONOMY 17 VERSE 1:

Deuteronomy 17:1 - Thou shalt not sacrifice unto YAHWEH thy Elohim any bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavouredness: for that is an abomination unto YAHWEH thy Elohim.

OF COURSE THIS IS SPEAKING OF PHYSICAL SACRIFICES WHICH WE'RE NOT ABLE TO DO SO TODAY, BUT WE DO OFFER SPIRITUAL OFFERINGS, RIGHT?

OFFERING OF PRAISE UPON OUR LIPS UNTO HIS NAME AND SO ON, AND OFTEN WE DO THAT THROUGH MUSIC.

AND I SEE SOME THINGS HERE WHICH ARE NOT RIGHT

THINGS WHICH ARE NOT REALLY A PURE HOLY OFFERING TO YAHWEH, BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO ME THAT SOME ARE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT LIFTING THEMSELVES UP AND SELLING ALBUMS

THAN MAKING A PURE HOLY OFFERING OF PRAISE TO YAHWEH

VARIOUS CHRISTIAN ARTISTS HAVE THEIR FAN CLUBS AND STAGES AND LIGHTS AND EVERYTHING BUILT TO GLORIFY THE SINGER.

THE VARIOUS AFFECTS.

YOU HAVE TO WONDER HOW CAN YAHWEH ACCEPT THEIR PRAISE WHEN THEY'RE GLORIFYING THEMSELVES?

HOW CAN THAT BE A HOLY OFFERING WITHOUT BLEMISH?

SO WE NEED TO GUARD OUR HEARTS AGAINST THAT KIND OF THING DON'T WE.

ISAIAH 42 VERSE 8:

Isaiah 42:8 - I am YAHWEH: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

SO OUR PRAISE NEEDS TO BE WITHOUT BLEMISH, WITHOUT DEFECT, AND SINCERE PRAISE TO HIM AND WE NEED TO FORSAKE THE GLORIFYING OF MEN THROUGH THESE THINGS.

NOW HERE'S AN INTERESTING VERSE, PROVERBS 6 VERSE 16 THROUGH 19, SOMETHING I SEE QUITE OFTEN AS AN ABOMINATION UNTO YAHWEH EVEN IN THOSE WHO CALL THEMSELVES BELIEVERS TODAY.

PROVERBS 6 VERSE 16 THROUGH 19:

Proverbs 6:16 - These six things doth YAHWEH hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

Proverbs 6:17 - A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

Proverbs 6:18 - An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

Proverbs 6:19 - A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

AND SO VARIOUS PARTS OF OUR BODY CAN BE AN ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH.

OUR COUNTENANCE.

A PROUD LOOK.

OUR TONGUE IF IT SPEAKS LIES.

OUR HANDS IF THEY SHED INNOCENT BLOOD.

OUR HEARTS IF THEY DEVISE WICKED IMAGINATIONS.

AND OUR FEET IF THEY ARE QUICK TO RUN INTO MISCHIEF.

AND SO IF WE SPEAK ANY FALSE MATTER AGAINST ANOTHER ALSO WE SEW DISCORD AMONG BRETHREN THAT'S ALSO AN ABOMINATION.

NOW THE FORMER PARTS OF THE BODY AN ABOMINATION ARE USUALLY AT WORK WHEN SOMEONE SPEAKS A FALSE MATTER AND CREATES DIVISION BETWEEN BRETHREN.

AND WHEN ONE PERSON SLANDERS ANOTHER PERSON ALL IT TAKES IS BASICALLY ONE WORD AND YOU NEVER VIEW THE OTHER PERSON THE SAME WAY AGAIN.

NOW NOTICE HERE IT SAYS THAT HANDS THAT SHED INNOCENT BLOOD ARE AN ABOMINATION ALSO.

IT WAS THIS VERY ABOMINATION THAT PREVENTED YAHWEH FROM ALLOWING THE CHILDREN OF JUDAH TO REMAIN IN THE LAND RATHER THAN GOING INTO EXILE BACK IN 2ND KINGS 24 VERSE 3 THROUGH 4 IT SAYS:

2Kings 24:3 - Surely at the commandment of YAHWEH came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;

2Kings 24:4 - And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which YAHWEH would not pardon.

VERY INTERESTING. YAHWEH WOULD NOT PARDON EVEN THOUGH THEY MIGHT HAVE REPENTED, HE WOULD NOT PARDON IT. THE LAND WAS TOO DEFILED WITH INNOCENT BLOOD.

NOW WE KNOW THAT MANASSEH WAS THE ONE WHO DID THIS AND ACTUALLY MANASSEH DID REPENT LATER ON IN HIS LIFE, BUT HE OFFERED CHILDREN IN THE FIRE TO MOLECH AND SO INNOCENT BLOOD WAS SHED IN ABUNDANCE.

YOU KNOW IN THE NATIONS THAT WE SEE TODAY THE SPIRIT OF MOLECH IS DEFINITELY IN FULL FORCE.

THEY CALL IT DIFFERENT, THEY CALL IT ABORTIONS, BUT PLEASE LET'S CALL IT FOR WHAT IT IS: MURDER.

IT'S AN ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH AND IT'S SAD, REALLY SAD, THAT ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACES TO LIVE IN THE WORLD IS INSIDE MOMMY.

ONE OUT OF FOUR CHILDREN CONCEIVED IN THE UNITED STATES ARE MURDERED BY THEIR OWN MOTHER AT THE HANDS OF A HITMAN CALLED AN ABORTION DOCTOR.

NOW IF YOU THINK THAT'S ASTOUNDING, OTHER COUNTRIES THEIR RATE IS EVEN HIGHER AND IN RUSSIA THERE ARE 200 ABORTIONS FOR EVERY 100 BIRTHS.

WOW...

NOW YAHWEH DID NOT PARDON JUDAH WHEN THE LAND WAS FILLED WITH THE SHEDDING OF INNOCENT BLOOD, AND SO THE ABOMINATIONS OF THIS WORLD ARE PILING HIGHER AND HIGHER WHEN PARENTS SHED THE INNOCENT BLOOD OF THEIR OWN CHILDREN.

SAD.

ONE DAY YAHWEH WILL CLEANSE THE EARTH WITH FIRE.

LET'S NOT HAVE ANY PART OF WHAT YAHWEH CALLS ABOMINATIONS.

PROVERBS 12 VERSE 22:

Proverbs 12:22 - Lying lips are abomination to YAHWEH: but they that deal truly are his delight.

PROVERBS 8 VERSE 6:

Proverbs 8:6 - Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.

Proverbs 8:7 - For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

AND SO OUR WORDS CAN BE AN ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH IF THEY ARE LIES.

AND SO WE NEED TO HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH LIES, BECAUSE THE FATHER OF LIES IS NONE OTHER THAN SATAN.

PROVERBS 17 VERSE 15:

Proverbs 17:15 - He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to YAHWEH.

THIS REMINDS ME A LOT OF LAWYERS WHO, THEY'LL DEFEND THE ONES THEY KNOW ARE GUILTY, THEN THE PROSECUTORS WHO WILL PROSECUTE THE ONES THEY KNOW WHO ARE FALSELY ACCUSED ALL IN THE NAME OF ADVANCING THEIR CAREERS.

ALSO REMINDS ME ALSO OF HOW IT SEEMS THAT SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO MAKE QUICK, SNAP JUDGMENTS ABOUT ANOTHER PERSONS CHARACTER AND CALL IT SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT WHEN THEY REALLY DON'T KNOW THE FACTS. THAT HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN.

AND EVEN AMONG BELIEVERS OR THOSE WHO WOULD CALL THEMSELVES BELIEVERS, THAT DOES HAPPEN QUITE OFTEN.

AND IT ALSO REMINDS ME OF HOW THE WORLD ALWAYS THINKS THAT THOSE WHO DIE ARE GOOD NO MATTER HOW WORLDLY OF A LIFE THAT THEY LIVED.

HE THAT JUSTIFIES THE WICKED AND CONDEMNS THE JUST, BOTH ARE AN ABOMINATION TO YAHWEH.

SO WE NEED TO BE TRUE IN OUR JUDGMENTS NOT CONDEMNING THE JUST AND NOT JUSTIFYING THE WICKED, BUT JUDGE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT.

NOT ACCORDING TO APPEARANCE EVEN YAHUSHUA SAID, BUT JUDGE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT.

AND IF WE DON'T KNOW, BE HUMBLE AND ADMIT YOU DON'T KNOW RATHER THAN BE PROUD AND SAY, "WELL I GOT THE DISCERNMENT HERE. I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S HAPPENING."

THAT HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN.

WE DON'T NEED TO GO THERE.

OTHER ABOMINATIONS, PROVERBS 21 26 THROUGH 27:

Proverbs 21:26 - He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.

Proverbs 21:27 - The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?

WHAT IS THE SACRIFICE OF THE WICKED?

YOU WE READ IN SCRIPTURE THAT YAHWEH CANNOT ENDURE A SINNER MAKING A SACRIFICE UNTO HIM. IT'S VAIN.

FOR INSTANCE, ISAIAH 1 VERSES 11 THROUGH 13 SAYS:

Isaiah 1:11 - To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith YAHWEH: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

Isaiah 1:12 - When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

Isaiah 1:13 - Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

WHY IS YAHWEH SO UPSET HERE?

WHY IS HE UPSET THAT THEY'RE KEEPING THE SABBATH DAY? AND THE NEW MOONS? AND CALLING ASSEMBLIES TOGETHER?

WE KEEP READING VERSE 14, IT SAYS:

Isaiah 1:14 - Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

Isaiah 1:15 - And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

Isaiah 1:16 - Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

Isaiah 1:17 - Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

AND SO YAHWEH DOES NOT WANT ALL THESE SACRIFICES AND ALL THESE OFFERINGS AND ALL THESE MEETINGS IF WE'RE JUST GOING TO DO WICKEDLY AND THEN COME TOGETHER AND WORSHIP AND LIFT OUR HANDS AND PRAY AS IF NOTHING WAS EVEN DONE AND NOTHING'S GOING ON.

IT'S LIKE SOMEBODY WHO SINS ALL DAY LONG AND THEN THEY SPEND THE EVENING IN WORSHIP AND THEY DON'T EVEN REPENT. WHAT PURPOSE IS A SACRIFICE?

ISN'T OBEDIENCE BETTER THAN TO SACRIFICE?

OR IT'S LIKE ONE WHO WILLFULLY SINS ALL WEEK LONG AND THEN GOES TO WORSHIP YAHWEH ON A DAY OF WORSHIP, SABBATH OR SUNDAY WHATEVER DAY.

YOU GO TO WORSHIP YAHWEH AFTER YOU'VE JUST BEEN SINNING ALL WEEK LONG, DON'T EVEN BOTHER REPENT, JUST GO IN THERE AND WORSHIP.

YAHWEH DOES NOT RECEIVE THAT AT ALL.

1 SAMUEL 15 22, SAMUEL SAYS:

1Samuel 15:22 - And Samuel said, Hath YAHWEH as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of YAHWEH? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

NOW I WAS GOIN' THROUGH TOWN, I WAS IN TOWN, I HEARD THIS SONG ON THE RADIO SOMEONE WAS PLAYING AND IT SAID, "PARTY ALL NIGHT SATURDAY NIGHT AND GO TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY."

SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES.

AND I'VE HEARD THROUGH THE PRISON MINISTRY THAT I DID THERE WERE PEOPLE WHO COULD NOT FATHOM THAT ANYTHING IN THE BIBLE WAS RIGHT BECAUSE THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEIR PARENTS DID.

THEY GOT DRUNK ON THE WEEKENDS AND CAME INTO CHURCH ON SUNDAY.

UTTER HYPOCRISY.

BUT REST ASSURED THERE WILL BE CONGREGATIONS FILLED WITH THE SACRIFICES OF THE WICKED, WE JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WHEN WE COME BEFORE YAHWEH THAT OUR HEART IS CLEAN, THAT WE HAVE REPENTED OF OUR SINS.

REMEMBER DAVID IN PSALM 51. HE HAD DONE WRONG AND HE TOLD HIM, HE SAID, "YOU DON'T DESIRE SACRIFICE OR I WOULD GIVE IT." PSALM 51 16:

Psalms 51:16 - For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.

VERSE 17

Psalms 51:17 - The sacrifices of Elohim are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O Elohim, thou wilt not despise.

Psalms 51:18 - Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.

Psalms 51:19 - Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

SO THIS WAS AFTER HE HAD SINNED WITH BATHSHEBA THE PSALM THAT HE WROTE.

HE ACKNOWLEDGED HIS TRANSGRESSIONS.

HE SAID, "AGAINST YOU ONLY HAVE I SINNED."

PURGE ME! CLEANSE ME! AND HIS REPENTANCE. HE DIDN'T TRY TO MAKE AN OFFERING AT THAT TIME, YOU HAVE TO REPENT AND THAT'S WHAT THAT'S ALL ABOUT.

OUR PRAYERS ALSO ARE CONSIDERED TO BE A TYPE OF OFFERING.

PSALM 141 VERSE 2 SAYS:

Psalms 141:2 - Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

AND SO IT'S A TYPE OF SACRIFICE ALSO.

NOW PROVERBS 28 VERSE 9 SAYS:

Proverbs 28:9 - He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.

WHY IS THAT?

WELL THE MORE THAT WE WANT TO HEAR YAHWEH, THE MORE WILLING HE IS TO HEAR US.

OUR COMMUNICATION WITH YAHWEH NEEDS TO BE TWO-WAY.

YOU KNOW MOST OF THE WORLD PICTURES YAHWEH AS THIS, THIS GUY WHO COMES AROUND WHENEVER THEY'RE IN A JAM, THEY KINDA USE HIM LIKE A SPARE TIRE, YOU KNOW THEY KEEP IT IN THE TRUNK OF THEIR MIND UNTIL THEY NEED TO USE HIM AND THEN THEY PUT HIM BACK AWAY.

BUT YOU KNOW IF WE DON'T CARE TO HEAR WHAT YAHWEH HAS TO SAY, THEN OUR PRAYERS ARE AN ABOMINATION UNTO HIM.

AND SO WE NEED TO BE ATTENTIVE TO HIS LAW, TO HIS TORAH AND BE WILLING TO HAVE EARS TO HEAR.

AND NOT HAVE THIS PICTURE OF HIM LIKE THAT IN OUR MINDS.

WE CAN'T JUST GO THROUGH LIFE AND SAY, "OKAY WELL I'VE GOT MY HOUSE, MY 2 TO 3 CHILDREN, MY RETIREMENT, I'VE GOT MY CAR IN THE GARAGE, I'VE GOT MY RELIGION, IT'S JUST ONE OF THE THINGS ON THE LIST."

YAHWEH DOESN'T ACCEPT THAT. HE WANTS US TO LOVE HIM WITH ALL OUR HEART SOUL AND STRENGTH.

EVERYTHING THAT'S IN OUR MIND. EVERYTHING.

HE HAS TO BE #1 AND IF HE'S NOT #1 IN YOUR MIND THEN HE'S NOT YOUR ELOHIM. SOMETHING ELSE IS #1.

EITHER IT'S YOU OR SOME OTHER THING.

BUT HE HAS TO BE OUR ELOHIM!

AND THAT MEANS THAT WE WANT TO BE WILLING TO HEAR WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

WE'RE GOING TO DILIGENTLY SEEK OUT WHAT HE HAS TO SAY, AND AS JEREMIAH SAYS, IF YOU SHALL SEEK ME YOU SHALL FIND ME; IF YOU SHALL SEARCH FOR ME WITH ALL YOUR HEART. JEREMIAH CHAPTER 29 VERSE 13:

Jeremiah 29:13 - And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

AND IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SIN YOU'VE COMMITTED, NO MATTER WHAT IT IS.

ABORTION.

NO MATTER HOW MANY MURDERS YOU MAY HAVE DONE, OR WHATEVER.

YAHWEH IS WILLING TO FORGIVE.

LOOK WHAT HE DID FOR DAVID.

EVEN THOUGH DAVID WAS A BELIEVER WHEN DAVID TRULY REPENTED OF HIS MURDER AND HIS ADULTERY YAHWEH FORGAVE HIM.

NOW HE HAD TROUBLE ON HIS HOUSEHOLD AFTER THAT.

BUT YAHWEH DID PARDON.

NOW SOME TODAY WILL TEACH YOU THAT THERE IS NO SIN WORSE THAN ANOTHER.

I'VE HAD UNBELIEVERS COME TO ME AND SAY, "HOW CAN THAT POSSIBLY BE? ALL SIN BEING THE SAME AND NO SINS WORSE THAN ANOTHER. THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE."

EVEN UNBELIEVERS RECOGNIZE THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

AND I THINK IF WE REALLY THINK ABOUT IT, IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE! THAT ALL SIN IS THE SAME AND THAT NO SIN IS WORSE THAN ANY OTHER SIN.

I WOULD SAY MURDERING WOULD BE WORSE THAN COVETING YOUR NEIGHBORS HOUSE.

I THINK THAT THAT WOULD BE WORSE, JUST COMMON SENSE WOULD YOU TELL YOU THAT.

BUT LISTEN TO THE WORD OF YAHWEH.

YAHWEH HIMSELF DOES SAY THAT CERTAIN SINS ARE WORSE THAN OTHER SINS.

EZEKIEL CHAPTER 8 VERSES 4 THROUGH 6 IT SAYS:

Ezekiel 8:4 - And, behold, the glory of the Elohim of Israel was there, according to the vision that I saw in the plain.

Ezekiel 8:5 - Then said he unto me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes now the way toward the north. So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy in the entry.

Ezekiel 8:6 - He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? but turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations.

GREATER ABOMINATIONS.

YUP.

CONTRARY TO POP THEOLOGY NOT ALL SIN IS EQUAL.

SOME SINS ARE MORE ABOMINABLE THAN OTHER SINS, THAT'S WHY SOME ARE CALLED ABOMINATIONS.

EZEKIEL 8 VERSE 7 CONTINUE TO READ HERE:

Ezekiel 8:7 - And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.

Ezekiel 8:8 - Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

Ezekiel 8:9 - And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.

Ezekiel 8:10 - So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.

Ezekiel 8:11 - And there stood before them seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan, with every man his censer in his hand; and a thick cloud of incense went up.

Ezekiel 8:12 - Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, YAHWEH seeth us not; YAHWEH hath forsaken the earth.

THEY THOUGHT THAT YAHWEH WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO SEE THEM BEHIND THE HOLE IN THE WALL BECAUSE HE HAD LEFT THE LAND TOTALLY!

YOU KNOW WE'RE JUST AS FOOLISH IF WE THINK THAT SOMEHOW EVERYTHING THAT WE DO IS NOT WRITTEN DOWN. ECCLESIASTES 12:14:

Ecclesiastes 12:14 - For Elohim shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. .

CONTINUING IN EZEKIEL HERE IT SAYS:

Ezekiel 8:13 - He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.

AND SO THERE ARE EVEN GREATER ABOMINATIONS THAN THIS!

NOW IMAGINE ALL THESE THINGS TAKING PLACE IN YAHWEH'S TEMPLE, IN HIS HOUSE.

VERSE 14:

Ezekiel 8:14 - Then he brought me to the door of the gate of YAHWEH's house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.

Ezekiel 8:15 - Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.

NOW HOW PAINFUL IT HAD TO BE FOR YAHWEH TO BEHOLD THESE THINGS.

AND YOU THINK ABOUT IT, YOU KNOW WE SEE THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH WITH OUR OWN TWO EYES OUR OWN TWO EARS. WE HEAR THE THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON OR READ ABOUT THEM AND THESE ARE JUST THE THINGS GOING ON ON THE OUTSIDE.

IMAGINE THE THINGS THAT YAHWEH SEES IN THE HEARTS OF MEN CONTINUALLY.

ALL THE ABOMINATIONS IN THE HEARTS.

WHAT RESTRAINT HE HAS TO HAVE SUCH MERCY ON MAN IN THE HOPES THAT HE WILL TURN FROM THESE THINGS.

AND THAT'S WHY WE BRING THESE THINGS UP SO THAT MAN WILL TURN FROM THESE THINGS AND HUMBLE THEMSELVES BEFORE THEIR CREATOR.

SO WE NEED TO BE SURE THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY REMNANT OF IDOLATROUS OR ABOMINABLE PRACTICES IN OUR OWN WALK WITH YAHWEH.

WE WANT TO CLEANSE OUR LIVES FROM THINGS WHICH ARE ROOTED IN IDOLATRY.

CAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF LEFTOVER SUN WORSHIP IN MODERN DAY RELIGIONS, INCLUDING MAINSTREAM CHRISTIANITY.

AND MANY OF THE ABOMINABLE THINGS INHERITED FROM THE TRADITIONS OF THE CHURCH FATHERS WHO WERE IDOL WORSHIPPERS THEMSELVES!

EITHER FORMERLY OR REMAINED IN IT.

SO THE GREATER ABOMINATIONS, EZEKIEL 8 16 THROUGH 17

Ezekiel 8:16 - And he brought me into the inner court of YAHWEH's house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of YAHWEH, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of YAHWEH, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.

Ezekiel 8:17 - Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.

EZEKIEL 43 VERSE 8:

Ezekiel 43:8 - In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their post by my posts, and the wall between me and them, they have even defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger.

SO YAHWEH MUST BE REGARDED AS HOLY AND WE SHOULD HOLD HIM IN REVERENCE RATHER THAN THE IRREVERENT WAY OF MODERN RELIGION, AND ESPECIALLY THOSE OF US WHO BEAR HIS NAME.

BY OUR ACTIONS IF WE ARE PARTICIPATING IN THINGS WHICH ARE ABOMINABLE THEN WE ARE, WHEN WE CALL UPON HIS NAME, WE ARE CALLED BY HIS NAME, THE PEOPLE CALL US YAHWEH'S PEOPLE,

WE ARE DEFILING HIS HOLY NAME THAT WE BEAR WHEN WE PARTICIPATE IN THINGS THAT HE VIEWS AS ABOMINATIONS; OR ANY WRONG THINGS THAT WE DO.

AND SO WE NEED TO HOLD AND BEAR HIS NAME IN REVERENCE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER.

BECAUSE WHEN PEOPLE SEE THE ABOMINATIONS AND THE THINGS THAT EVEN THEY RECOGNIZE AS BEING WRONG THEY'RE GOING TO TEND TO ASSOCIATE YAHWEH'S NAME WITH THE ACTIONS THAT WE DO.

AND SO WE NEED TO WALK IN RIGHTEOUSNESS AND SINCERELY AND TRULY REPENT IF WE DO FAIL.

WE NEED TO SEEK YAHWEH'S WILL DILIGENTLY OUT OF A TRUE LOVE FOR HIM.

AND SO WE KNOW THAT HE HAS BEEN SEVERELY WRONGED BY MAN WHOM HE'S CREATED AND WE HAVE ALL WRONGED HIM.

BUT HE'S OFFERING US A CLEANSING.

HE'S OFFERING US, FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO TURN AWAY FROM THESE THINGS, HE'S OFFERING US A CLEANSING.

AND FOR THIS REASON HE SENT YAHUSHUA TO CLEANSE US FROM ALL THESE THINGS, THAT WE COULD WALK IN THE NEW LIFE OF PURITY AND RIGHTEOUSNESS.

DON'T LET ANYONE LIE TO YOU AND SAY, "NOW YOU CAN GO BACK TO THE FILTH. NOW YOU CAN GO BACK TO THE ABOMINATIONS AGAIN, NOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN CLEANSED, YOU, LIKE A PIG, CAN GO BACK TO THE WALLOWING IN THE MIRE."

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT, RIGHT?

THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY.

IF WE WILL ONLY SEEK THE TRUTH, JEREMIAH 6 16:

Jeremiah 6:16 - Thus saith YAHWEH, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.

Jeremiah 6:17 - Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.

Jeremiah 6:18 - Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.

Jeremiah 6:19 - Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.

AND SO BRETHREN IF WE HAVE ANY ABOMINATIONS IN OUR LIVES LET'S FORSAKE THEM. THEY ARE OFFENSIVE TO THE ONE THAT WE CLAIM TO LOVE.

LET'S HAVE THE PERSPECTIVE THAT HE HAS.

LET'S HAVE THE WISDOM THAT HE HAS GIVEN IN HIS TORAH IN HIS LAW.

THE LAW IS NOT TO BE REJECTED, IT'S TO BE EMBRACED AND REGARDED AS THE OLD WAY, THE OLD PATHS, WHEREIN IS THE GOOD WAY!

IT MUST BE EMBRACED JUST AS ANY OTHER PORTION OF YAHWEH'S WORD; OLD TESTAMENT, NEW TESTAMENT, WHEREVER!

WE WANT TO WALK IN THE FULL COUNSEL OF YAHWEH AND LIVE BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF HIS MOUTH NO MATTER WHEN HE SAID IT.

AND SO LET'S WALK THEREIN.

LET'S LISTEN TO YAHWEH'S WORDS.

LET'S NOT REJECT HIS LAW.

LET'S RECEIVE IT!

HE WANTS TO GRANT US HIS WISDOM.

WE ONLY NEED TO ASK FOR IT.

AND BE WILLING TO WALK IT OUT.

JAMES 1 5:

James 1:5 - If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of YAHWEH, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

BECAUSE BRETHREN THERE IS NO WISDOM LIKE THE TORAH WHICH IS OUR WISDOM, DEUTERONOMY 4 6:

Deuteronomy 4:6 - Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.

IT'S HAPPENING ALREADY. CHRISTIANS ARE COMING TO UNDERSTAND THROUGH THINGS LIKE THE "MAKER'S DIET," VERY POPULAR BOOK, OF RETURNING TO THE WISE AND UNDERSTANDING WAY, THAT THE EATING OF UNCLEAN ANIMALS IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU.

BECAUSE THE LAW OF YAHWEH IS PERFECT. PSALM 19 7:

Psalms 19:7 - The law of YAHWEH is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of YAHWEH is sure, making wise the simple.

THEY MAY NOT HAVE KNOWN IN THE OLD DAYS WHAT THE EATING OF THOSE THINGS WAS DOING TO THEIR BODIES, ONLY NOW IS IT COMING TO LIGHT.

UNCLEAN ANIMALS DO NOT HAVE THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM TO FILTER OUT THE YUCK.

BUT RUMINANT ANIMALS AND SO ON, THEY DO.

THEY'RE FINDING THIS OUT.

YAHWEH MARKED THE ANIMALS AND KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS DOING, SO WE NEED TO DO YAHWEH'S COMMANDMENTS AND WALK IN WISDOM.

AND WHILE OUR WORKS MAY BE AN ABOMINATION TO THE WORLD, GIVEN TIME, SOME ARE GOING TO SEE THE WISDOM OF WHAT WE DO.

AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE NEW TO THIS WALK YOU PROBABLY HAVE SOME IN YOUR FAMILY THAT'S ALREADY REJECTED YOU.

OR YOU'RE ANTICIPATING WILL REJECT YOU.

I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU, BE PATIENT.

LET YAHUSHUA'S WORKS SHINE THROUGH YOU.

EVENTUALLY MANY OF THOSE WHO REJECT YOU TODAY WILL START TO SEE THE WISDOM IN DOING WHAT YAHWEH SAYS TO DO.

EVEN TODAY IT'S HAPPENING, LIKE I SAID.

MANY CHRISTIANS ARE SEEING, IT'S WISE TO FORSAKE THE ABOMINABLE MEANS.

WE DON'T HAVE TO BE UNNECESSARILY HARSH WITH OTHER PEOPLE BECAUSE WE NEED TO REMEMBER THE MERCY AND PATIENC YAHWEH HAS GIVEN US TO BRING US TO THIS POINT OF UNDERSTANDING TODAY.

BUT WE DO NEED TO MOVE ON IN THE SPIRIT AND LEARN NEW THINGS

AND HAVE THE ATTITUDE OF THE PSALMIST AND SEEK THE CONVICTIONS THAT WILL BE CHANGE TO OUR LIFE THAT WE MIGHT HAVE A MORE PERFECT HOLY AND ACCEPTABLE LIFE THAT YAHWEH SEEKS.

PSALM 119 VERSE 131:

Psalms 119:131 - I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.

Psalms 119:132 - Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.

LOVING HIS WORD CRYING OUT FOR HIS MERCY.

BEAUTIFUL.

Psalms 119:133 - Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

WE WANT DELIVERANCE. IN YAHUSHUA WE DON'T HAVE SIN DWELLING OVER US OR DOMINEERING OVER US.

AND NEITHER SHOULD WE HAVE ANY THOUGHT IN OUR MINDS WHATSOEVER THAT THE OPPRESSION OF MEN HAS ANY POWER OVER US.

YAHWEH IS OUR DELIVERER, 134:

Psalms 119:134 - Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.

Psalms 119:135 - Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.

AND AS MANY DID OVER THE YEARS, WEEP WITH HIM OVER THE ABOMINATIONS ON THE EARTH,

Psalms 119:136 - Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.

BRETHREN WE KNOW THAT WE ARE AT SOME POINT VERY WELL POSSIBLY IN OUR LIFETIME HERE, GOING TO ENTER SOME VERY TROUBLESOME TIMES.

REMEMBER THE ONES WHO WERE SPARED IN EZEKIEL'S DAY.

EZEKIEL 9 4 IT SAYS:

Ezekiel 9:4 - And YAHWEH said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.

AND THEY WERE SPARED. AND SO LET'S NOT GROW COMPLACENT BUT LET'S SIGH AND CRY ALSO FOR THE ABOMINATIONS DONE ON THE EARTH ESPECIALLY IN OUR LOCAL LOCATIONS THAT WE LIVE.

AND OUR WEEPING OUGHT TO BE A WEEPING BECAUSE YAHWEH'S WILL IS NOT BEING DONE.

AND THESE MEN WHO ARE NOT DOING THE WILL OF YAHWEH ARE NOT GOING TO BE SAVED UNTIL THEY REPENT AND RECEIVE YAHUSHUA.

AND SO LET'S NOT ALLOW THE WORLD THOUGH TO INFLUENCE WHAT WE CONSIDER TO BE ABOMINABLE.

LET'S SUBMIT TO HIS WILL IN ALL THINGS AND CRY OUT FOR THE ABOMINATIONS ON THE EARTH.

WE KNOW THAT DAYS ARE GOING TO COME AND THIS IS TRUE.

AND THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THE DAY IS GOING TO COME, REVELATION 21 23 THROUGH 27:

Revelation 21:23 - The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of YAHWEH illuminated it. The Lamb is its light.

Revelation 21:24 - And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it.

Revelation 21:25 - Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there).

Revelation 21:26 - And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it.

Revelation 21:27 - But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.

NOTHING THAT CAUSES AN ABOMINATION WILL DWELL THEREIN.

DO WE DESIRE TO BE THERE?

IF SO, LET'S BE SURE THAT WE FORSAKE ALL DEFILEMENT, ALL ABOMINATIONS, ALL LIES. LET'S BE DILIGENT TO SEEK HIS SALVATION, TO LOVE HIS LIGHT, AND TO WALK IN THE PATH OF YAHUSHUA THE MESSIAH.

YAHUSHUA ALREADY HAS SHOWN US THE PATH TO TREAD.

AND IT IS A NARROW PATH THAT FEW FIND.

AND MOST ARE NOT GOING TO RECOGNIZE THE ABOMINATIONS.

BUT WE ONLY NEED TO LOOK TO OUR EXAMPLE, YAHUSHUA THE MESSIAH, WHO NEVER COMMITTED ANY OF THESE ABOMINATIONS.

AND WALK AS HE WALKED.

BECAUSE IN THE END IT IS THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO BELIEVE IN HIM AND WILLING TO WALK IN HIS FOOTSTEPS WHO WILL PREVAIL.

HIS WORD SAYS IT.

LET'S SEEK TO DO SO.

AND AS YOU DO SO, MAY YAHWEH BLESS YOU AND MAY YAHWEH HAVE MERCY ON EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US.
