most of the people we know do not know about God and are going to burn in hell when they die and we are sitting on our computers talking about random topics to kill our boredom.
Just saying...
I agree, I come here the past 2 years to proclaim the truth, there are hundreds of posts daily on useless nonsense that just drown out the cry of the dammed!
They love thier vain amusements and games, along with thier pet sins, such as porn watching, fornication, drunkeness, adulters, etc, the list is endless!
Apostate Christianity needs a wake up call big time, and a few more brave souls not afrad to proclaim the truth to the lost and dying who have bought into a doctrine of demons, telling them they can sin like the devil, be OF the world, and act no better than those in the world and all is well!
Who are the foolish?
1Co 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish is foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
I used to think this daunting verse only applied to the lost world that has rejected God and His son Jesus Christ!
But the more I delve into the truth, and the more its revealed to me I can see how this verse is now expanding and also applying to those who profess to be a saved, born again follower of Jesus Christ.
It all goes downhill when the few remnant bring them the truth, and expose their strongholds of original sin, substitution, OSAS, Calvinism, etc. This has led to the saved in sin (rebellion and disobedience) and liberal teachings that make the gospel according to godliness a thing of the past!
The truth is foolish to them, and they will not hesitate to tell you straight up, that we who bring them the truth, are the false teachers and of the devil!
They are being foolish as they scoff at real repentance and faith proven by deeds, heart purity, and obedience to the truth, along with free will and ability to actually stop rebellion and disobedience towards God before He will grant them mercy.
We bring countless verses and proof to them, yet the refuse to read them, we give them ample time to dig deep and make their calling sure but they scoff at truth and obedience.
They boldly defend another way to the cross, another gospel, another truth, and another Jesus, who somehow magically took their place, became their righteousness, and feels sorry for their poor sin nature given to them by Adam!
So where is the power? Is God not able to save mankind out of their sins? Is He not powerful enough to forgive and then empower us to have victory over the works of temptation and the devil!
How foolish to say mankind cannot repent, stop sinning, then follow Jesus through an obedient faith on the narrow road, it’s simple:
Act 20:21 testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
This is the foolish gospel to the professing masses, along with a multitude of many more verses that teach the right way to the cross.
The Billy Graham sinners prayer is the standard in the professing Church today, no repentance, no heart purity, and no conversion, just admit, trust and accept, but to the few remnant this message is utter foolishness because it lacks any real power to save a soul form the corrupting influence of sin, that can only occur through a free will choice, to repent stop disobeying and rebelling against God, seek His mercy and stand firm to the end!
Act 28:27 For the heart of this people was fattened, and they have heard with their ears dully; and they closed their eyes; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
