Facing Judgment 2020

 

          Proverbs 29:18 (NKJV) Where there is no revelation, no vision, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.

           

1 John 1:5 (ESV) This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

 

Colossians 1:15-20 (ESV) 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. 17 And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 
 

          

James 1:17-18 (ESV) 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. 
 .

          Whether we like to admit it or not America has turned its back on God. 

Isaiah 17:10 (ESV) For you have forgotten the God of your salvation and have not remembered the Rock of your refuge; 

Jeremiah 2:32 (ESV) Can a virgin forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? Yet my people have forgotten me days without number.

Jeremiah 3:21-23 (ESV) 21 A voice on the bare heights is heard, the weeping and pleading of Israel’s sons because they have perverted their way; they have forgotten the Lord their God.
 22 “Return, O faithless sons; I will heal your faithlessness

Jeremiah 18:14-16 (ESV) 14 Does the snow of Lebanon leave the crags of Sirion? Do the mountain waters run dry, the cold flowing streams?
 15 But my people have forgotten me; they make offerings to false gods; they made them stumble in their ways, in the ancient roads, and to walk into side roads, not the highway, 16 making their land a horror, a thing to be hissed at forever. Everyone who passes by it is horrified and shakes his head.

Hosea 8:14 (ESV) For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces, and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; so I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour her strongholds.

 

          Isaiah 9:13-16 (NIV) 13 But the people have not returned to him who struck them, nor have they sought the Lord Almighty. 14 So the Lord will cut off from Israel both head and tail, both palm branch and reed in a single day;
 15 the elders and prominent men are the head, the prophets who teach lies are the tail.
 16 Those who guide this people mislead them, and those who are guided are led astray.

 

1.     The false Church in this nation has made up an imitation Jesus and not the God of the Bible who asks us to pick up our cross and follow him.

 

Matthew 25:1-13 (ESV) 1 “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom.
 2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
 3 For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them,
 4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.
 5 As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept.
 6 But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 7 Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.
 8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’
