The Lie!
The BIG Lie! – What is it?
Romans 1:20-25
“For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.”
:- an outline of the rebellion of the people against God.
vs25: “exchanged the Truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator” – that is the Lie! That God is not the external creator of all things, He is just part of it.
Genesis 1:1 :- get this right and everything falls into place.
2 Thessalonians 2:7-12
“For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”
:- again THE Lie!
What is the Restrainer restraining? God is restraining human evil so that humans don’t destroy the world and themselves or is he restraining the fallen or falling angels?
Ephesians 6:12-18 & Ephesians 3:10 :- the entities involved in the struggle
Matthew 24:24 :- even the elect are being deceived.
Believing your lies is a judgement, not an excuse.
Leviticus 18:21-30
“You shall not give any of your children to offer them to Molech, and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord. You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. And you shall not lie with any animal and so make yourself unclean with it, neither shall any woman give herself to an animal to lie with it: it is perversion.
“Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, for by all these the nations I am driving out before you have become unclean, and the land became unclean, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. But you shall keep my statutes and my rules and do none of these abominations, either the native or the stranger who sojourns among you (for the people of the land, who were before you, did all of these abominations, so that the land became unclean), lest the land vomit you out when you make it unclean, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. For everyone who does any of these abominations, the persons who do them shall be cut off from among their people. So keep my charge never to practice any of these abominable customs that were practiced before you, and never to make yourselves unclean by them: I am the Lord your God.”
Revelations 13:13-18
The LIE is being told everywhere! LGBT…and all the rest coming along. We see it everywhere around us more and more every day. It will blow the world away if you are not ready for it.
So what am I supposed to do? -> be of good cheer! I (Jesus, the Son of God) has overcome the world! Amen!
