Who’s In Charge Here?

Amen. Bro. Cameron

Some believe that Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus to provoke a revolution. He thought he was taking control, manipulating the situation for his own benefit.

The Sanhedrin and high priests baited Pilate into condemning Jesus. They stirred the people to cry for His death. They thought they were in control of events.

Only the Romans could pass the death penalty. As Pilate sentenced Jesus to crucifixion they thought they were the ultimate authority over the people and events of the Passion.

As Jesus died, Satan thought he had accomplished his plan, and it was indeed finished. He thought he had controlled the events leading up to the death of Christ.

All of them were wrong. The One who seemed least in control was orchestrating events. He was laying His life down for His sheep. No man took it from Him.

He was “delivered up by the determinate plan and foreknowledge of…

Beware The Seduction Of Evil

/ Tim A. / Leave a comment

“For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, and beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: and, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves. For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey: he hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.
With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her. Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.”  Proverbs 7:6-27  (KJB)

He Will Judge The Earth With Righteousness

“O sing unto the LORD a new song; for He hath done marvellous things: His right hand, and His holy arm, hath gotten Him the victory.
The LORD hath made known His salvation: His righteousness hath He openly shewed in the sight of the heathen. He hath remembered His mercy and His truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise. Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm. With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.
Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together before the LORD; for He cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall He judge the world, and the people with equity.”  Psalm 98:1-9  (KJB)
