Why you shouldn't turn your head at sin!

These days Christians are turning their heads and winking at sins that are now to be socially accepted. Instead of taking a stand against such things. That doesn't necessarily mean a protest. It calls for obedience. Scripture calls us to not be identified with the world and their wickedness.

(sower of seed parable)
Mar 4:18 And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they that have heard the word,
Mar 4:19 and the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

Mar 8:36 For what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?


Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
Rom 12:2 And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Christians go on with their everyday life making, planning, and looking for a way to gain personal prosperity. Including praying that God would bless them in these secular selfish ventures. That originate from their selfish desires. The only use for God is as a crutch when they need healing, money, or need to soak their self pity upon His shoulder. Instead of repentance, and seeking God's truth of the Gospel. They go on with their cohorts at the local church. All the while things in their heart grow ever darker. Jesus slips further away and more in the background than ever; even to the point of silent denial. What is this life all about? Self Gain, careers, or status in the eye of your beholders????

Don't you feel the urgency that our God has called you to something greater! Something greater like self sacrifice, humbleness, long suffering, true love for the brethren and their broken hearts. Isaiah 61. Could you be used by God to mend the broken-hearted through the Gospel of Jesus' spilled blood for us? How about proclaiming liberty to the captives that are imprisoned with desperate sin situations? Why did Jesus come? To save us from this desperate state of sin, and wickedness of this world. Hebrews 11:10 Abraham called himself an stranger awaiting a far better city. A spiritual city of God in Heaven. There are better things to seek in God! BUT.... wait you are too worried about your plans for the future. You put off God's work for another day. Is it that you even; are desperately riddled with secret sin that you cannot overcome? God doesn't judge us by what we think about ourselves.
Hewbrews 4:12 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart. 
"Oh, I'm a good person" or I want to be good, and I say "Yes and Amen at my pastor" but with no repentance. Repentance is not as hard as it sounds. The actual act of begging on your knees for forgiveness in a religious tradition.  Repentance is from your heart open before God, and changing your mind from evil to the truth of HIS word. The tears that may come are fruit of love and from your humbleness before God. Asking God to make your heart right before Him. You can repent daily whether it be a sin, mindset, or attitude as you renew your mind. To renew your mind as in Romans 12:1-2 is renewing your mind through reading His word. Which will change your actions. When you walk in the ongoing repentance with the Holy Spirit your actions will conform to the Word. The Holy Spirit is mandatory in this walk. Jesus is the Word John 1:1. So we are being transformed into Jesus' nature.
1Co 13:12 For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known.

2Co 3:17 Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
2Co 3:18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.

Jas 1:23 For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:
Jas 1:24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

The frightening reason why we should not accept sin in our lives or our homes from any source, Television and movies etc. That we should take a stand within our own walk with God and evaluate why!


Isaiah 2:6 The LORD has rejected the people of Israel because they have made alliances with foreigners from the East who practice magic and divination, just like the Philistines.
( practice of magic etc. Which is now in all movies and enjoyed with popcorn!!! Harry Potter, Narnia......)
2:7 Israel has vast treasures of silver and gold and many horses and chariots.

2:8 The land is filled with idols. The people bow down and worship these things they have made.America is full of Plenty, including idols, false religions, money, status, sex ....
2:9 So now everyone will be humbled and brought low. The LORD cannot simply ignore their sins!
2:10 Crawl into caves in the rocks. Hide from the terror of the LORD and the glory of his majesty.
2:11 The day is coming when your pride will be brought low and the LORD alone will be exalted.
2:12 In that day the LORD Almighty will punish the proud, bringing them down to the dust. 2:13 He will cut down the tall cedars of Lebanon and the mighty oaks of Bashan.
2:14 He will level the high mountains and hills.
2:15 He will break down every high tower and wall.
2:16 He will destroy the great trading ships and all the small boats in the harbor.
2:17 The arrogance of all people will be brought low. Their pride will lie in the dust. The LORD alone will be exalted!
2:18 Idols will be utterly abolished and destroyed.
2:19 When the LORD rises to shake the earth, his enemies will crawl with fear into holes in the ground. They will hide in caves in the rocks from the terror of the LORD and the glory of his majesty.
2:20 They will abandon their gold and silver idols to the moles and bats.
2:21 They will crawl into caverns and hide among the jagged rocks at the tops of cliffs. In this way, they will try to escape the terror of the LORD and the glory of his majesty as he rises to shake the earth.
2:22 Stop putting your trust in mere humans. They are as frail as breath. How can they be of help to anyone?
