False idols

Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said, “I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. 2 Corinthians 6:16

As a Born Again believer your body is now the Temple of God (1 Corinthians 3:16) because the Holy Spirit now lives inside of you. Therefor since you are a Temple of God why are you obsessed with idols? Now some would say, Paul was talking about pagan idols, which he probably was. However even today we have many idols that we worship and put first before God

Think about our obsessions with professional sports, musicians, movie actors, all these people we raise high on a pedestal. We seek after their autographs and follow their every move on social media. This is idolatry

The original Greek word for Idol in this scripture is “eidolon” which means false god, but the worship of such

When we focus all our time on following “celebrities” we are worshipping them. Do we put God first or is this celebrity or object always more important?

“Therefore, COME OUT FROM THEIR MIDST AND BE SEPARATE,” says the Lord. “AND DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN; And I will welcome you. 2 Corinthians 6:17

Jesus says “Come Out Of Them” (Revelation 18:4) meaning separate yourself from the wickedness and idolatry of this world. As the Temple of God, don’t allow yourself to become corrupted. The word Holy in the Bible means “Set Apart” separate yourself from the uncleanliness of this world

Who are you putting first? God or your idols? What do you spend most of your time doing? Does your activities glorify God?

New Creature

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 2 Corinthians 5:17

What does it mean to be Born Again? (John 3:3) This is a concept that a lot of Christians seem to have trouble understanding. You are not saved by your religious affiliations, you are not saved by the amount of money you put into the offering plate, and your not saved by doing community service, you are saved by faith through Jesus Christ only!

Now when you truly accept Jesus as your Lord, something begins to happen, you become Born Again. You are baptized with the Holy Spirit and the sanctification process starts to begin. This is how you become a New Creature through Christ

The old things pass away, meaning your old sinful lifestyle. No longer are you a slave to the sins that trap you like alcohol, drugs, pornography, gambling,  ect. You have put away the old and have been set free through Christ

He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:21

Jesus the sinless Lamb of God took the penalty for your sin! Think about this, who would die in your place? Who loves you enough to die for you? Jesus  is the answer! Become reconciled with God today and made new through Jesus Christ!

Don’t Be Deceived

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

There is a new trend in “Liberal Christianity” where denominations are accepting homosexuals as members, some denominations are even ordaining them to be pastors and bishops. Do any of these people even read the Bible? Apostle Paul clearly teaches homosexuals will not inherit the Kingdom of God. If homosexuals are not even saved, what makes you think they can be ordained as pastors or bishops?

This is what happens when denominations and “Churches” disregard the Word of God. They make  up there own doctrine and send people straight to hell. As Paul says “Don’t Be Deceived”

Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:11

Now the good news (Gospel) is that we can be saved through Jesus Christ. If you Repent (Turn Away) from your sins, you can become Born Again (John 3:3) However when you become Born Again and baptized by the Holy Spirit, you don’t still remain in your sins, you change your lifestyle.

Someone who continues to live in their sin and believes they are saved is deceived!

But from the beginning of creation, God MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE. FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH; so they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.” Mark 10:6-9

Here is Jesus teachings, he quotes directly from the Word of God (Genesis) First notice God makes males and females, there is no such thing as a transgender, God does not make mistakes

Second the covenant of Marriage is between a Man and a Woman that should be eternal. God made the Law of Marriage not man, therefor nobody has the authority to change it except God, which he never changes

Don’t be deceived , God will not be mocked, Repent and come to Christ, the only way to the Kingdom of God
