Romans 16:17, “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.”
The dictionary defines a “bigot” as “a prejudiced person who is
intolerant of any opinions differing from his own.” Bigotry is the state
of mind of a bigot, defined by Merriam-Webster as “a person obstinately or
intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially:
one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic
group) with hatred and intolerance.” My oh my, that makes God a bigot. God
doesn't hate people, but He hates sin.
God hates homosexuality. God is intolerant of the homosexual agenda and community. So then God must be the biggest bigot in the universe, because God is so intolerant of your beliefs that He'll put you into the Lake of Fire to be tormented for ever if you don't get saved. God has every right to tell us how to live. Those ingrates who deny the existence of God, or sinfully claim that God approves of sin, are placing themselves in the place of God. Humanism elevates man to God and brings down God to man; but the Bible proclaims the truth that God is almighty and man is finite, sinful and in need of divine redemption. Man is man; God is God. Man is sinful; God is holy. Man is weak; God is strong. Man is no good; God is all good. The sooner that we realize that we need God in our life, the better off we'll be.
The dictionary also defines the word “prejudice” as “a partiality that prevents objective consideration of an issue or situation.” So God is a prejudiced bigot according to the dictionary. God doesn't care what the abortionist mob has to say. God is not concerned with the defensive argument of the same-sex herd. God's opinion in the Bible is the ONLY opinion that matters my friend. And you're a big fool if you disagree with God. Before we were even conceived, God was setting up kings and removing them at His will.
No one is as narrow-minded as God. And if you're right with God, then you're as narrow-minded as the Bible. God has a right to think whatever He wants, for He is God. Some humans are defiant and get angry at God for being Who He is, that is, the Almighty God of the universe. Listen to what the famous singer SHAKIRA says about God in her demonic song, How Do You Do. She accuses God of being a hypocritical, malign, heartless, thug that preys upon the innocent. Hell will be hot enough for the wicked who challenge and blaspheme God. God is holy, just and righteous. It is man that is evil. Shakira can't even keep her clothes on! Yet she eats God's food, enjoying it with the taste buds that He gave her. Shakira drinks God's water, which the Bible says He gives to the just and the unjust. Shakira enjoys God's goodness, enjoys the health body that God gave her; yet she curses Him! What an ingrate! Luke 6:35, “for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.”
If you're not a bigot, then you're not right with God. If God's a bigot, then bless God so am I. I don't like the term, but it means what it means. It is commonly used as a derogatory term. A bigot is a person who is intolerant of the views of others. Perhaps you think that you can respect the views of others while simultaneously holding your own views as well. In theory it sounds good; but in reality it doesn't work that way. Homosexuals are as bigoted toward the views of Christians as we are of their wickedness.
Consider Dan Cathy and his Chick-Fil-A restaurant chain in the United States. They don't force their beliefs on anybody. You can read on the internet about the company. There are gays working for the company. Gays are not prohibited from holding jobs at the company. Discrimination is not tolerated. Yet, Dan Cathy has been demonized by a lynch mob of homosexual sympathizers. I say “Hooray!!!” to Dan Cathy for taking a Biblical stand. Here's what Dan Cathy told the Baptist Press in a recent interview...
“I think we're inviting God's judgment on our nation, when we shake our fist at Him and we say, 'You know, we know better than You as to what constitutes a marriage'; and I pray God's mercy on our generation that has such a prideful, arrogant attitude to think that we would—the audacity—to try to redefine what marriage is all about.” —Dan Cathy (The Young Turks; 1:13 time in video; published July 21, 2012)
Amen and amen! Shame on any Christian who
doesn't fully agree with Dan Cathy. God certainly agrees with Dan Cathy. If
taking a stand against the evils of homosexuality, same-sex marriage,
abortion, adultery, immodesty, pornography, casino gambling, booze and
corporate theft is bigotry, then I'm guilty as charged and proud of it in
the precious name of Jesus. If the world is calling you a bigot, then count
yourself worthy of heavenly praises for you are suffering reproach for
standing with your Savior (John 12:43). God's way is the only way and the
right way, whether you like it or not. I'd highly recommend that you don't
go your own way. Proverbs 2:5-8, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;
and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him,
and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD,
and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy
bones.”
You Can't Legislate Morality
But what the queers (as they proudly call themselves) are angry about is that Dan Cathy has donated several million dollars to anti-homosexual groups to stop them. That's the heart of the issue. You'd be shocked if you knew how many lesbians and bisexuals are working as lawyers, politicians and judges in America today. Listen to what our second U.S. President, John Adams (whose wisdom was key to the drafting of our Constitution) said...
“We have not government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” —U.S. President John Adams
What
a statement! Wow! John Adams is so right! The U.S. Constitution simply
outline our God-given liberties, but if people choose to embrace wickedness,
then no government can control them. What does this mean? It means that you
can pass all the laws you want, but you cannot legislate morality.
Due to the love of money, corporations and television executives have been sexually exploiting underaged teen girls for decades in the U.S., which has caused an epidemic of sexual sins and pedophiles in America. Parents of victimized children are angry and have called for all types of new laws with severer penalties for offenders. It's not working! Despite Amber's Law, family education, police training, increased surveillance and even laws prohibiting adults from sitting in a park without a child... the epidemic is only getting worse!
Laws, laws and more laws! Don't you get it? You cannot legislate morality. As people go more and more into sin in America, so also is a Police State of laws, cameras, militarized thug police and bigger prisons being put into place all around America. God will not be mocked my friend. If people won't obey God, then judgment is inevitable. Daniel 2:21 says that God sets up kings and removes them.
I love Alex Jones, but he and his fans won't save America without repentance to God. Alex says that he's trying to unlock people's minds so that they'll begin to see all that they need to do (and there's truth to that). But why doesn't Alex just tell people directly how to be saved? Sadly, it's because Alex would lose millions of listeners. I've never heard Alex present any type of plan of salvation to his listeners. Most people reject the Bible and the Gospel message, but they are angry over the crimes of government and oppression of their rights. They want to live for the Devil, but have God's blessings too. It doesn't work that way.
Alex Jones plays Led Zeppelin and ACDC, two notoriously sexually immoral bands which have led millions of youth away from God into lives of gross immorality, fornication, abortion and selfishness. How can we expect to bring America back to God by a bunch of Led Zeppelin heads? James 4:4 says you are God's enemy if you are a friend of the sinful world. Led Zeppelin are God's enemies. ACDC are God's enemies! Alex Jones is promoting God's enemies. Dave Mustaine (founder and frontman of the heavy-metal band MEGADETH) professes to be a born-again Christian since 2001, but he is still serving the Devil by singing his heavy-metal. Mustang claims that he won't play certain songs anymore that obviously praise Satan; yet it's deceptive because ALL of the music is of the Devil.
Satan's nature is to deceive (Matthew 7:15; 2nd Corinthians 11:13-15). In reality, what Dave Mustaine is doing exactly what is in perfect character with Satan, that is, misleading people to think that he's serving God while living for the Devil. Don't be deceived. Heavy-metal is rooted in the number 13, which represents total destruction, suicide and anarchy. Not surprisingly Dave Mustaine's most recent album is titled, TH1RT3EN. Mustaine says he just likes the number 13 for coincidental reasons. Right Dave, right! Mustaine's not kidding faithful Christians who love the Lord.
The Gospel offends people. It's the nature of the beast in any type of public radio show, television program or whatever. If gaining listeners and money is your goal, then you're not going to preach the Biblical Gospel that excludes all forms of self-righteousness and religious devotion. 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 defines the Gospel as the DEATH, BURIAL and RESURRECTION of Jesus Christ. Sadly, Alex preaches about repentance every once in awhile, but his message of repentance and spiritual awakening completely leaves out the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
2nd
Chronicles 7:14 gives us the recipe for national healing. We are to humble
ourselves in prayer, seek God's face and turn from our wicked ways. There is
no other way. God resists the proud, but giveth grace to the humble (James
4:6). The very next verses promises that God will draw nigh (near) unto us,
if we'll draw nigh unto Him. God is there for anybody who wants Him. God has
a right to his opinions. And we are either going to obey our Creator or we
are going to put Him on trial. Whom do you say Jesus is—liar, lunatic or
Lord?
My friend, morality cannot be legislated. If Americans don't want to obey God, then they will rebel against all the laws of man too. Our society is headed for total insanity. Already people are being arrested for thought crimes—perhaps because they had an angry look on their face, or they were sweating in an airport, or maybe they signed a petition against the government. If you think times are bad today, you haven't seen nothing yet. All hell is coming!
Thank God for His Commandments. Thank God for
His Words, the thoughts of His heart unto all generations (Psalms 33:11).
Thank God for the gift of His dear Son, Jesus Christ Who died, was buried
and raised up from the dead for our sins. Christ shed His blood to wash away
our sins (1st Peter 1:18-19). God has been so good to humanity, giving us
the promise and hope of eternal life by faith in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Yet, people call God a bigot.
God Speaks In A Still Small Voice
1st
Kings 19:10-12, “And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the
LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the
mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD
was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD
was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the
LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.” Elijah saw God's power in the strong wind, earthquake and fire; but God
finally came to Elijah as “a still small voice.” I could preach a sermon on
just that little phrase, A STILL SMALL VOICE. My friend, God always speaks
to us in the still small voice of the Holy Spirit through the Word of God.
Some people would go crazy if they didn't have
a radio, television or iPhone to entertain them. If you want to walk with
God, turn everything off and get alone with God. The word “still” means
“calm.” And the word “small” means “crushed, that is, small or thin.” In
other words, it wasn't a loud, harsh, strong, nor frightening voice. I
believe God showed Elijah the wind, earthquake and fire to remind Elijah of
the power of God. And then God comes to Elijah in a still small voice,
asking him why he's hiding in a cave. There are many Christians who can
relate to Elijah, wanting to go hide in a cave from the world today. Elijah
thought he was alone in his afflictions, but God told him that he had 7,000
others who hadn't bowed to Baal (1st Kings 19:18).
All Things Were Created For God's Pleasure
Only a wicked person would call God a bigot. I'm not calling God a bigot. I'm saying that by the very definition of a bigot in the dictionary, God is a bigot. But the word has negative implications, as if it were a wrong thing, or a bad thing, or an evil thing, to hold your own opinions and not honor what others may think who disagree with us.
Did you know that God created all things for His own pleasure? Yep, that's true! Revelation 4:11, “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” Children today are taught hedonism in school, books and television. Hedonism is “The pursuit of pleasure as a matter of ethical principle; an ethical system that evaluates the pursuit of pleasure as the highest good.” That's America today! Kids are taught by Walt Disney, Hollywood, Katy Perry and all the other God-haters in society to do your own thing. Aleister Crowley (the most infamous satanist of the 20th century) summed up his life's work with the motto: “Do What Thou Wilt Shall Be The Whole Of The Law.” It sounds like something from the sci-fi horror movie, “The Island Of Dr. Moreau.” Why not walk on all four like animals while we're at it? Do What Thou Wilt Shall Be the Whole of the Law (Satan wants you to do your own thing). In sharp contrast, the Bible teaches that men “ought to obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29).
Everybody's into something. I'm so glad that I'm into the things of God. So many people spend their lives with things that are meaningless, and I could name a thousand hobbies and activities; but the things of Jesus Christ are what really matter. 2nd Timothy 3:12, “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.” People will label you as a bigot for standing with God. The Bible is very unpopular in a sinful world of heathens who only want to live for themselves. 2nd Timothy 3:1-2 foretold that people would only love themselves in the Last Days. We've never lived in such selfish times. People will hurt others without hesitation for personal gain. People will steal your joy, swindle your money, lust after your wife, molest your kids, poison your dog, and smile in your face while speaking about God.
God warned us about these types of people. Read it for yourself, about men who creep into houses and lead captive, silly, women laden with sins, having a form of godliness (2nd Timothy 3:1-5). I agree with famous author Mark Twain who said he didn't envy the lion tamer in the cage with a deadly lion, because at least the tamer was safe from people within the cage. The lion kept him safe from people. Isn't that the truth? I know you've been hurt by others. We all have. I sure have, over and over and over again. I love people, but I choose to love and help them at a distance.
People hurt people. The more people get hurt, the less trusting and more defensive they become. Can we blame them? I sure don't. If your own family will sell you out and ruin your life, then you can't trust anyone in this world. Yet, I choose to trust people as much as possible without placing my life or well-being into their hands. Never say, do or give anyone anything that they can use against you, because people change on a dime!
