Uncomfortable Truths: God's Word on Sin & Salvation

Repent of your sins and accept Jesus today. Hello and welcome. And if you're watching this today, I want you to understand that this moment is by divine design. Good afternoon, everyone. God bless you. This is another day the Lord has made. We will rejoice. For the Lord has been good to us, the Lord has been faithful. You see, this is a wonderful day. Whenever you have breath within your lungs, that's a wonderful day. You should be grateful to God for the gift of life. Because there are people that wanted to be in your situations, there are people that need, but they are not with us. You must not depart in the name, but now they are no more. So that's why we need to glorify God. That's why we need to set our sight on God. Because the Bible is our roadmap, and the words of God is our digestions. We are one of the most fortunate people today because we have birthed. So for that alone, we should be grateful to God for the gift of life. Now, welcome back to the Winning Source for Jesus Podcast. I am your host, Paul Thomas, and this is the poor chaos where we do not water down the words of God. We do not water down the word of God to fit your needs. We preach it straight and authentic. We preach it whole. We preach it the way it is written. Not the way culture wishes it was written. If you are new here, let me tell you what the show is all about. This is not a self-help podcast. This is not your best life broadcast. This is the Bible podcast where authenticity and scriptures are displaced. The Bible does not exist to make you feel good about yourself. The Bible exists to tell you the truth about God's words, the truth about sins, and the truth about the underwing of sins, which is Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. This topic we'll be discussing it for scriptures, we do not give our opinions, and we do not compromise. Now, as I'm speaking to you, I already know some of you figure is hovering over the skateboarding. Somebody is about to turn this off before I even get started. I'm going to ask you to do me one thing before you can do that. Stay with me because the truth is about to set you free. Not the truth shall make you comfortable, but the truth shall set you free. So today, we are not going to argue with culture, we are going to open the words of God and let the words of God speak for itself. In whatever the Bible says, it has said to it, it is authentic. Not because I said it, or because God said. The Bible does teach that there is a real spiritual battle, and that believers are called to walk in the light rather than the darkness. Most of all, we practice all of those sexual immoralities because we want to please our flesh. We practice drunkenness because we want to please our desires. We practice homosexual behavior because we want to please our flesh. We practice homescuality because we want to please our flesh. Remind us that our struggle is not ultimate against flesh and blood, but against the racial forces of evil. At the same time, scripture also tells us that Jesus Christ has authority over every power of darkness, everything you are facing today, everything you are facing that you do not have power over. You have tried to lead such behaviors, you have tried to desist for such behaviors. But it is tough. Give your life to Jesus today. You may be a promiscuous person, God can change you. You are not too gone for God. You may be practicing homosexuals, God can change you. You are not too gone for God. God can deliver you from all of those things that separate you from Him. Just run to Jesus Christ. Spiritual bondage is real. Spiritual view is real. All of those things take you separate from God. All of those things distin you from God. We cannot see the spirit raids. That's why God repeatedly warns us against Neph that has separated people from Him. Hatred destroy our relationship from God. Prior blood judgment. Replace God with possessions. Sexual immorality corrupt what God created us holy. We got to repent. Those things are all effort desires. But what would become of you when you stand in the presence of a righteous and holy God? We got to make a decision right now. When people reject God, they often experience the consequences of all of those things. Many of us will feel trapped in our sins because we reject God. Many of us will feel guilty, we feel bitterness, we feel addictions, hopelessness, because our relationship with God is distant. We got to fix our relationship with God. Spiritual darkness and evil covering is real. The gospel is the message of freedom. That's why Jesus said, If the Son devil should make you free, you shall be free indeed. John 8 36. Freedom begins with repentance. Not merely feeling sorry about yourself, but turning away from sins and turning towards God. Your faith in Jesus Christ, your obedience in his words, prayers, fellowship with other believers. Distance yourself from things that separate you from God. If you're listening to me today and you feel you are distant from God, remember, remember, no darkness is greater than the light of Jesus Christ. No failure is beyond his ability to forgive you. No change is stronger than the saving power of Jesus Christ. The invitation of the gospel remain open to you. Confess your sins and turn to Jesus Christ. Walk in a new life today. No matter what you may be doing, leave it, turn around and walk back to the cross. Walk back to the cross of Jesus Christ. Now, before we get into the teaching, let us pray. Heavenly Father, gracious King of Glory, King Jesus. We thank you that your light is greater than every darkness. Search our heart and reveal everything that separates us from you. Give us the humanity to repent, the faith to trust in you, Lord Jesus, and the strength to walk in your obedience. Protect us from deceptions. Help us to love what is truth and righteous. And fill us with your Holy Spirit so that our life reflects your glory. We declare our confidence in Christ alone. For He is our Lord, our Redeemer in our everlasting hope. Lord Jesus, take pre-eminent control of our life. Break every chain that has destined us for you. Every change of bondage, every change of deceptions, every chain of spiritual blindness, we destroy it right now by the blood of Jesus. We set ourselves free. Our life is in the hands of God. No devil has control over us. Only Jesus has control over us. Lord Jesus, we call upon you this afternoon. King of King, Lord of Love, the God that never sleeps. Come to our rescue. Deliver us from the hands of the evil ones and set us free from everything that has confused our mind. Give us our real identity. Our identity you created us with to think that we are the next gender that we are not. We break that chain right now by the blood of Jesus and set us free from every homosexual behavior and set us free from every drunkenness and set us free from everything that is not of you. Every promise reality behaviors set us free from it and deliver us from the hands of the evil ones because we want to live in your present. We tell you, thank you, Lord Jesus. In Jesus' name. Now, let's talk about what God actually says about sexual immorality and let's talk about the grace that's still available to every single person listening to me right now. No matter what you have done, no matter what you are doing, no matter what you are struggling with today. I want you to listen to me. I want you to turn to Levitical 18. Levitical 18. Because what I'm above to see, I do not want you to just hear it. I want you to see it. Leviticus 18. Scripture said that should not lie with many cons with woman. It is an abominations. It is abominations. It is abominations. That is not of very soft wars. That is not a soft war. Abominations is God's strongest language. The same wars for child sacrifice. God knows that word abominations. God does not waste that war. And he does not say it once. He said it twice. So nobody can call it scripture's mistake. So nobody could say it was taken out of contest. You villicos. For a man also lie with man, as he lie with woman can. Both of them have committed an abomination. This shouldn't be put to blood, should not be upon the. Stay with me. But I want you to feel the weight of it. This was not one of the God. This was not a full note to God. This is at the center of what brings his heart. Where somebody your life, somebody, your child, somebody with a big mark of food. The man is going to tell you that the old testament does not count. Let me ask you something. Did the Tenth Commandment stop counting? Because the Tenth Commandment is in the Old Testament. Thou shall not see. No. You know it is no. So do not tell me Luville 80 continually expired. The movement it becomes unpopular. Why every other warrior command in the same book? Steve State. You do not get to pick and choose which part of the holy balance is good to you. The words of God all apply. I stand forever. In Hebrew 13, verse 8. Jesus Christ, the same yesterday and today and forever. He does not change. Nomas 23 verse 19. God is not a man that should walk, neither the sons of men that he should repent. Or have he spoken and he not make it good. When God speaks, he does not take it back. He does not apologize for it later. He does not issue a corrective statement when the culture shift. No. That's why the Bible says in James 1 for 17. Every good gift, every perfect gift is from above and come down from the Father of the light. With no variant boldness, leaders, shadows of turn. How you understand our war? There is no God of the Old Testament and God of the New Testament. No, they are one God. One God. From Genesis to Revelation. So when culture tells you, nah, God never changes. Understand what they are really telling you. They are not telling you God changes. That is not Bible steady anymore. That is unbelief with mercenary. What God calls saints 2500 years ago on Massana in the wilderness. He calls saints today. In your car, in your kitchen, wherever you are listening to this. First stop, I want you to take this as a lesson that God and the world does not change. It doesn't matter because you are living in sins that you say God was changed. God was does not change. The Bible said in 2 Timothy 2 verse 16, all scripture is given by inspirations of God. Not just part of it, all scriptures, not just part of the scriptures that fit your needs, or those that do not fit their needs. For even that woman didn't change that natural news into that which is against nature. And likewise, also men leaving the natural news of the woman, bring in that lust one towards another, men with men. Okay, that which is unseen. This is not cultural talking, this is not me talking. That is the words of God. The words of God brief up the Spirit of God. Preserve for thousands of years, so that you can hear it right now. Scripture do not change. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 6 49 to 10, know yet not that the unrighteous should not inherit the kingdom of God, be not deceived, neither fornicators, non adolescents, non-adulters, faminate, non-abuser of itself with many comes, non-thief, non-coverture should inherit the kingdom of God. Did you catch that? Did you catch that phrase in the middle? Do not be deceived. Do not be deceived. God knew this day was coming. God knew everything was coming. God knew this generation time was coming. The sense of these generations is not shocking to God. God knew because He created Created everything. He created this wall. He knew there could be a generation that tried to talk it away from the walls. Do not be deceived. God knew there could be a generation that will say God has changed. So he put a warning label right on that voice to not be deceived. To not let anybody, not a professor, not a politician, not a preacher, not a host, not even a preacher, stand beyond the puppy and tell you God's words has changed. Because deception do not usually come wearing home. It comes wearing smile. It comes where compassion has a marks. See Lion, the separate news in the gardens of Eden. In Genesis 3, verse 1. Yeah, God said that is the old tricks in the Bible. Question what God says. Question what God said. That what God meant. Those are the deceptions the devil knews. Try to redefine what God means when He meant nothing at all. The devil is a manipulator. He comes to steal, kill, and destroy. That is his identity. He comes to steal, kill, and destroy. That is why we got to repent. We got to repent from fornications. Most of you, as I speaking to you now, you are legally married, but still sleeping outside. Still sleeping outside to satisfy the flesh. To please your self-centered desires. You take promiscuity as a lifestyle. You take all of those things that separate you from God as a lifestyle. Do you not know you are separating yourself from God? You live in all of those things. Those things that distance you from God. Wait for marriage. You want God to bless you with a unique partner. Wait and pray to God and call upon Him sincerely and see the outcome. Those things separate you from God. That's the reason we got to repent. Now go for trip. The greed, envy, wanting what your neighbor has. Some of you are not satisfied with what you have. You so greed it until you go to a stern to destroy another human being's life because of your greed. And you feel God is not washing. God is watching. You cannot escape the wrath of God until you prepare. You have one sense, but because of your greed, you want to exploit the poor people to have 20 sins. You take what that do not belong to you because you are in the positions to exploit people. And nothing goes and punch. Greed, offered, greed. You're so greedy until you disregard another person's feelings. You disregard another person's suffering and you take advantage. You capitalize on your positions to exploit people, and you demoralize another person just to uplift yourself. Those are things that is against God. You got to repent. You can be rich with all exploiting, you can be rich with all demoralizing another person. God is not a God of suffering, God is a God. He created everything on the source, everything belongs to Him. Some of you preach false messages because you want money. You tell someone, God said you should give a thousand dollars, God said you should gain this, God said you should gain this. Exploiting people, using the name of God to benefit your greed, corporate, greed. Wanting what belongs to another person. Now another one is fearlot. That is what gossip. Some of you, your gossip, gossip. Gossip is one of the dangerous sins. You need your tongue to tear another person down. You use your tongue to celebrate the church. You use your tongue to demoralize another person. You use your tongue to destroy another person's life. You use your tongue to distance yourself from God. Why we continue to do such a thing that we're distant from God? We want to live for God and we want to live with our flesh. We want to live in this world and we want to live for God. Because the greed of money, we gossip, we put problems in people's room because we want to satisfy ourselves. And it is against God. We should desist from those behaviors, those things separate us from God. If you want to be a child of God, we gotta desist from all of those things. We gotta accept Jesus trend sincerely and desist from this. Some of you, after church, you stop the gossip. In church, you gossip to your workplace, you gossip. You cannot change. You think it'll be your normal protein. You gotta repent. I'm not saying it to condemn you, but I'm saying it because you just say you gotta repent. Drunkenness. Drunkenness. Drunkenness is an indigenous. Some of you, you're so addicted to drunkenness, you're thinking to be normal. Those things separate you from God. Drunkenness can be in bottle, drunkiness can be in pills. You see, whatever you do that distinct from God, whatever you want to, so you do not have to feel it's called drunkiness. Whatever you do, pills, somebody is so regular into pills, you're so addicted to those things that separate you from God. Because if you take those things and make you intoxicated, you love the bottles, you take it to be your regular habits. When I'm talking about pills, I'm not talking about those that have prescriptions. Even prescriptions, I'm not talking about those that have a prescription from the doctor, but those that use those things just to get intoxicated. Those are people I'm talking about. Drunkenness. You use the bottle consistently to entice yourself, and you do not think about your relationship with God. We got to repent. Nothing in this world, we effort, we effort accomplish if you stay in your drunkenness. Because whenever you stay in your drunkenness, you have been separated from God. You got to repent. Extortionals. Another one is extortional. Cheating. That is why cheating people, all of their money, cheating people, you extort from other people because you want to what? Get rich. So you extort from other people, you exploit other people because you're in a position to exploit other people. Those things are all evil, those things separated from God. You take what belongs to others, you squeeze every last dialogue with all no conscience at all. That is evil, that is less sense. Don't get me wrong, we are not perfect, but we got to recognize those things, that those things separate us from God. We are not perfect when the guys, but we got to recognize those things. That those things separate us from God, that those things put boundary between holiness and unrighteousness. We got to repent, we gotta start lying, we gotta stop greed, we gotta stop gossip, and not because I displace all of those things, I talk about all of those things, but every sins is sins. Every sins that go against God is sins. You look at a woman wrongly our sins, sins now, they are all sins. So we gotta desist for all of those things. That's why Romans 3, verse 23 said, for all has sins and come short of the glory of God. We all have sins to come short of the glory of God. That's why we gotta repent. Not some or even the preacher has sins, even the deacon has sins, even the choir director, everybody in me has sins. That's why I come to God and confess our sins and recognize that those things separate us from Him. We got to run at the front of Jesus Christ and confess of our sins and confess of our guilt. We need repentance. Now, most of those churches are not preaching about those things, most of those posterity churches, they are not preaching about all of those things that separate us from God, but they are only preaching about posterity messages, which is distinct us from God, which is distinct us from God. But you cannot preach about the ills that take people to hell, you cannot preach about those things that we practice on a daily basis. Some of our living sins on a daily basis. Whenever we have an opportunity to go to church, then the preacher is preaching about prosperity, he's not preaching about repentance, he's not preaching about salvation, he's not preaching about Jesus Christ, he's not preaching about the consequences of our sins, which is hell. Most churches start about grace. Never mention sins, never mention sins. That's what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 6:11. And such were some of you, but yet I wash, but yet I sanctify, but yet I justify in the name of Jesus Christ, and by the Spirit of our Lord, our God. Your past behaviors, your past, those things you practice before, they are all passed away when you come to Jesus Christ. It's for cover, we come to Jesus' grace. It doesn't matter wherever you may be now, wherever it is you have committed, only you know, only you know what you have committed. It doesn't matter. But when you run to the cross of Jesus Christ, when you give your life to Jesus Christ, when you turn back from all of those things, distinctly from God, He will forgive you. God is a merciful God, do not continue on living in sins repeatedly, intentionally, and still going right back and come back and repent and go back and come back and repent. No, God will run out of patients one of these days. You do not know your tomorrow. So if you keep procrastinating, you keep living in sins, tomorrow is not guaranteed. We gotta repent. We are sins, we're not free from sins. But we recognize our sin and stop living in those sins. We recognize those things that separate us from God. And when we sin, we don't sin intentionally, we recognize those things that separate us from God and try to the Holy Spirit. But most of us will live in those things normally, we take it to be our lifestyle. We got to repent. God still has not moved, He is inviting you today. Repent. Because the Bible said in Acts 3, verse 19, Repent, yeah, therefore, and be convicted that your sins may be blotted out. Repent. He did not say clean yourself up first, he did not say fix it, then come back. He said, Repent, repent of your sins, turn back, turn from where you are walking, turn towards the cross of Jesus Christ. Because the Bible says in Romans 10, verse 9, that if thou should confess with the mouth that Jesus Christ, and should believe in the heart that God has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be safe. Confess, believe, and be safe. Whatever sins that have grave on you, it may be sexual sins, greed, addictions, bitterness, pride, whatever names cause by in life. Jesus is not asking you to defeat it on your own. Before you come to him, he is asking you to bring it to him exactly how it is. Bring your sins to him and he will cleanse you. That's why Isaiah 1 verse 18 said, Come now and let us reason together, said the Lord, your sins may be scattered. They should be as white as snow, that they were like casting, they should be as wart, scatterless, make white, casting make wood. That is not metaphor, a promise for transformations. So wherever you are, wherever you are, run to Jesus Christ. Come to him, do not argue, come to him, do not wait for another movement because the enemy is trying to convince you that those left star is pulled. Those are all the deceptions of the devil. Come to the cross and turn back. Now let us pray. Let us pray. Lord Jesus, I am a sinner. I tend from my sins today. I believe you die for me and rose again. Wash me, make me a new person. I surrender my life to you. Have mercy on me and change me. In Jesus' name. May God bless you all and may God sanctify you. And may the grace of God go with you. Live in the presence of God. Do not be deceived by the enemies. Be blessed, be strong, and put your focus on God. No evil world will ever cover you. Your destiny is in the hands of God. Put your destiny in the hands of God. You will fulfill your dreams. Every dreams, every plans that God has destined for you, you will fulfill it. Just believe and praise God and work within the comfort of God. Do not let the devil mislead you. God has a purpose for you. Be blessed and spread the word of God. God bless you.
