Years ago Johnny Carson apologized and explained that he used a word on his previous show that was 'inappropriate' that was rejected by the television network sensors. He awkwardly murmured that he instead should have said “A woman is 'expecting' or 'Is with child.'” By the moral standards of the 1960’s and before, use of the word 'pregnant' was not acceptable to use in society.

While there once was a time in our world when we all had a basic sense of right, wrong, and decency about what was appropriate and acceptable, as today’s scripture passage says, evil people’s standards have shockingly and unabashedly become mainstream and embraced by many not only as OK, but acceptable. Since the Supreme Court rulings of the early 1960’s that forbid prayer and Bible reading in schools, as a result there are perhaps three or four generations that have no idea of morality and civility as what was previously regarded in the public sphere.

The grotesque picture alongside this message is from a January 22, 2022 ad for an upcoming movie produced by the Walt Disney company called “FLESH” and is just one example of the consequences of a society lacking a moral compass. This film is being marketed as a romantic-comedy with a morbid backstory about a young lady dating a plastic surgeon who discovers that her boyfriend is a cannibal that sells body parts to other flesh eaters. Hollywood movie reviewers have hailed the movie as 'a breakout hit' and popular movie rating site *Rotten Tomatoes* gave it a rating of 85 out of 100.

This movie — and it’s message about where we are as a society and how far we have fallen morally — speaks for itself. Just as the Bible has prophesied and Jesus said, the hearts of many will (and have) grown cold.

Friend, the only way to escape this madness is to turn back to the last and ONLY standard of truth and morality, and that is God and His Holy Word, the Bible. Turn to Christ today, and “Love Not (this) World” [ 1 John 2:15 ] before IT Consumes You.

If you are like the majority of people, in regards to thoughts about God, Heaven, what happens when you die, and eternal life, then your thinking most likely goes something like one of these beliefs and attitudes:

1) It’s all good! I’m a GOOD PERSON! I’ll go to heaven because God is LOVE and I am GOOD. 2) I’m not that bad, and God’s not really THAT mad at me anyway, so why would or should I go to hell? 3) So what?!? I AM that bad, but God is not THAT good anyway! Actually if this dude were to make me go to hell, it would prove what a &#^@! He really is!

But here is the truth.

1) It’s all good! I’m a GOOD PERSON! I’ll go to heaven because God is LOVE and I am GOOD. 2) I’m not that bad, and God’s not really THAT mad at me anyway, so why would or should I go to hell? 3) So what?!? I AM that bad, but God is not THAT good anyway! Actually if this dude were to make me go to hell, it would prove what a &#^@! He really is!

But here is the truth.

On the first point, No One is SO GOOD that by what you have done in this life that that they will have an automatic ticket to heaven. The Bible does NOT teach that. Instead it says that we are all are sinners, and we are all worthy of judgement.

On the second point, while you may admit that you have faults, your life is not an empty rap sheet that is 100% clean. We have all done things that are far worse than we care to honestly admit!

On the third point, admit you hate and rebel against a so-called “Good God ” who would commit any of those that don’t 'measure up' according to his unreasonable and dominating standards. If that is who this 'god' is than he is not worthy of being god or having my respect.

As always, you have the absolute right to believe anything you want. We have free will and make our own decisions about life, death, and eternity. But here is the thing - are you going to assume that your idea about all this is correct and that your ENTIRE ETERNITY depends on simply what you “THINK”?!? You don’t plan your retirement based on that, so why are you assuming eternity’s conclusion is a matter of what you think??

Friend, here is the answer - and it is TRUE and DEPENDABLE. Jesus Christ came to this earth to make payment for your sins, cover the eventuality of eternal death and provide you the way to heaven. All you need do is CHANGE YOUR MIND about the three attitudes above. By the way, the word 'repent' in the Bible’s original language literally means to “change your mind.” Will you change your mind RIGHT NOW about what Eternal Life can be? You can! Simply ask Christ to pick up the check for your sins. Tell Him you appreciate what He has done for you and confess that you are a sinner and take a repentant not presumptive attitude about your soul’s state. Then the only thing you will need to “Watch Out” for is seeing Christ saying to you, “Welcome Home Child!”

Our national debt today is estimated to be around $30 TRILLION dollars, or to put it graphically, thirty times the one billion dollars of stacked $100 bills stacked on pallets in this picture. It is a debt that is impossible to pay back for our country, but did you know that YOU and I have an EVEN GREATER DEBT that we also can never pay back? It is the debt of SIN.

We all have a debt greater than the national debt that CANNOT be repaid by being a “good person,” being generous, saving the planet, or contributing some great work to humanity. There is nothing you can personally do to escape the debt and payment for sin which eventually will be your eternal death, however someone has already paid that debt for you, and all you have to do is 'Ask for MERCY, because His Mercy is More!'

Friend, the message of the gospel, — plain and simple — is this…

Christ died for YOUR sins and paid the sin debt that YOU owe, and like the master in today’s scripture verse, he showed COMPASSION, FORGAVE & RELEASED the man of the impossible burden of debt that could never be repaid.

Likewise, there is just one thing you must do in order to be forgiven of this debt, and that is ASK GOD TO FORGIVE YOU and repent of what you have done. Mercy means NOT getting what we DO DESERVE, and God is always merciful to all those that simply ask him from a sincere and contrite heart.

Be released of your sin debt today before the Grim Reaper of debt comes to collect. Ask God to forgive, and He will forgive…but he does not forgive unless you ASK.

Have you asked Him?

Kathryn Kuhlman was a powerful Christian evangelist who over several decades preached, healed and transformed the lives of many. She is regarded by some as the greatest female Christian minister of the 20th century. While her life and what she spoke over the years was remarkable, in her final days what she also spoke was even more remarkable and thought provoking. While hospitalized and accelerating quickly to a fateful end, she predicted not only the day she would die, but also the precise hour and minute. As she prophesized, it was at exactly 1:13 AM on February 20, 1976.

This got me to thinking that 1:13 AM is one out of 1,440 minutes that we all sweep through each day, and just like on the second hand of a clock, one of those minutes will be the precise minute of when all of us will pass from the here to the hereafter.

Unlike Katheryn, we have no idea when that minute will come. She was ready for that exact minute at 1:13 AM when an angel would meet her and take her to heaven...but how about you? She was a faithful, obedient disciple of Christ and her name was written in the Book of Life (the book of all those that are going to heaven.) Is your name in that book? If not, here is how you can be sure.

Commit right now IN THIS SECOND to confess to God that you want to have your name written in the Book of Life. All you need to do is ask God to forgive you of your sins and decide to be faithful and obedient to God from this second forward. When you do, He will heal your spiritual heart so that when your earthly heart stops beating in one of those 1,440 earthly minutes, the first heavenly minute will begin.

Right now, you are alive in THIS minute, and there may only be 1,439 minutes more until your last minute comes. Not only is today the day of salvation, but this minute is the time! Don’t delay because a time is coming when you will not only have a minute, but will not have a SECOND (chance) left.

God Bless Your Day, Jesus Loves You

An article on TheDailyBeast.com on February 5, 2020 quoted a statistic that was SO SHOCKING that it not only floored me but saddened me to the core as to the current moral state of our people, nation and world. that it not only floored me but saddened me to the core as to the current moral state of our people, nation and world.

They reported that in a nation in which 139 million voted in the last presidential election that 141 million votes were cast for the best pornographic movie in 2019 on the largest sex-video web site in the world. Also, according to this self-same article, these five young women pictured here are the top 'stars' of the adult film world. Not so coincidentally another news article on-line the same day touted proudly that porn stars would now be featured models in a major runway fashion show in New York. If these sex actresses are (or are not) familiar to you, please read on.

We now live in a world, as indicated by today’s insightful and prophetic verse that all that was once considered virtuous has turned vile, where being “straight” is out of step with the times while lewd thoughts, language, dress, and actions are not only accepted but celebrated.

While many that read this may not know or be familiar with any of these women, sadly some of you may, and if you do – and especially if you have confessed Christ as your Lord – you have followed the path of perversion from goodness above. If so, you need to turn now and REPENT (literally change your mind) and seek forgiveness.

This epidemic of a sex-crazed culture and thinking always leads to spiritual destruction. For those on this path, it will never satisfy and will lead to an addiction that will continue to spiral down lower and lower into the denizens of Hell if you let it. But there is good news...

Christ can and does deliver us from ALL sin – no matter how small, large, venial or vial. Make the decision and promise God that RIGHT NOW to never look at these putrid images again!! Change your mind, turn away from the bitter and turn to the sweetness of wholeness and holiness in God. Seek Christ, Get Forgiveness, and Receive His Grace.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus - not JUNK! It is never too late to live a sweet and not bitter life.
