Gnosticism: Has the Bible Already Refuted It?



"And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet." (Luke 24:38-40)

"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." (1 John 4:1-3)

"Docetism, (from Greek dokein, “to seem”), Christian heresy and one of the earliest Christian sectarian doctrines, affirming that Christ did not have a real or natural body during his life on earth but only an apparent or phantom one." (www.Brittanica.com)

One of the earliest and most dangerous heresies to confront the Church was Gnosticism, a belief system that denied the full humanity of Jesus Christ. At the heart of this error is a doctrine known as Docetism, from the Greek word dokein, meaning “to seem.” Docetists claimed that Christ only appeared to have a human body—that He was a spirit being with no true flesh and blood. But such teachings are not only heretical—they are antichrist, according to the Word of God.

Christ Himself Refuted Docetism

The risen Lord Jesus left no room for such deception. After His resurrection, when His disciples were troubled and doubting, He gave them a clear, physical, and undeniable demonstration of His bodily resurrection:

“And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.”
(Luke 24:38–40, KJV)

Jesus did not rise as a phantom or spirit. He rose in a literal, glorified body—still bearing the wounds of crucifixion. His invitation to “handle me, and see” was a direct refutation of the Gnostic lie that the divine Christ could not take on human flesh.

The Apostle John Exposes the Spirit of Antichrist

As Gnostic teachings spread through the early Church, the Apostle John, under divine inspiration, wrote to expose and condemn them. In his first epistle, he draws a bold line between truth and heresy:

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist...”

(1 John 4:1–3, KJV)

 To deny that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not a small doctrinal error—it is the very spirit of antichrist. John's warning rings as true today as it did in the first century. Any teaching that undermines the incarnation of Christ is not of God.

Why It Matters

The full humanity of Jesus is not a theological footnote—it is essential to the gospel. If Christ did not come in the flesh, He could not bear our sins on the cross. If He did not physically rise, we have no hope of resurrection ourselves. As Scripture affirms:

“For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.”
(Hebrews 4:15, KJV)

Only a real man could suffer, die, and rise again to redeem mankind. And only a real Savior can offer hope—not just in this world, but in the world to come.

Conclusion

Docetism and Gnosticism are not just ancient errors—they are present in modern disguises. Whether through mystical spirituality, philosophical elitism, or progressive theology that denies the authority of Scripture, the same spirit of antichrist is still at work.

But as believers, we stand on the unshakable truth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, that He died, that He rose again bodily, and that He is coming again—not in secret, but in glory.

Let every spirit be tried. Let every doctrine be weighed. And let the Word of God be our final authority.

Will You Receive Christ Today?

If you’ve never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, the invitation is open:

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)

Right now, wherever you are, you can pray in your heart:

“Lord Jesus, I know I’m a sinner. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. I ask You to forgive me, come into my heart, and be my Savior. I trust You alone for my salvation. Amen.”

Should Christians Use Social Media to Share the Gospel?

 

Should Christians Use Social Media to Share the Gospel?

In today’s digital age, social media has become one of the most powerful tools of communication. For the believer in Christ, the question arises: Should Christians use social media to share the Gospel?

The short and resounding answer is yes—but with discernment, wisdom, and above all, love.

Posting vs. Engaging

When we consider using social media, we should understand the difference between posting and engaging. Posting is simply sharing truth—Scripture, encouragement, or a testimony—without expecting dialogue or confrontation. Engaging, however, involves entering into conversations, answering questions, or addressing opposing views.

Scripture encourages both declaring truth and interacting with people, but it also gives us clear instruction on how we are to go about it.

Contending vs. Striving

In Jude 1:3, we read:

"Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints."

The word contend here is translated from the Greek word ἐπαγωνίζομαι (epagōnizomai), which means “to struggle for” or “to fight earnestly.” It implies a passionate defense of the truth of the Gospel, not through violence or argument, but through faithfulness and bold proclamation.

Contrast this with 2 Timothy 2:23–26:

"But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient..."

The word strive comes from the Greek μάχομαι (machomai), meaning “to quarrel, dispute, or engage in battles.” This striving is argumentative and unproductive, often arising from pride rather than love.

So, while we are called to contend for the faith—present and defend the truth—we are also warned not to strive—engage in heated, unloving arguments that lead only to division.

The Right Way to Share

2 Timothy continues:

"In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth..." (v. 25)

This is the posture of the Gospel messenger: meekness, patience, gentleness, and a hope that God Himself will move on the hearts of those we reach.

Whether posting a verse, a personal testimony, or answering a question, we must remember our tone and motive: are we trying to win a debate, or win a soul?

Guidelines for Gospel Sharing Online

  1. Yes, Share Boldly. Use your platform—be it Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or anywhere else—to declare the Gospel. Scripture, testimonies, links to sound sermons or resources, even videos of your own message are all ways to spread the good news. Don’t hide your light (Matthew 5:14-16).

  2. Avoid Arguments. Do not respond to posts or comments that are made to provoke, attack, or insult—whether they target Christians or other faiths. Paul warns us in 2 Timothy 2:23 to avoid “foolish and unlearned questions,” because they only create strife.

  3. Respond with Scripture, Not Opinion. God’s Word is living and powerful (Hebrews 4:12). It is not our clever words that change hearts, but the truth of Scripture planted like a seed.

  4. Show Love, Not Just Logic. Sharing truth in love, not to "make a point" but to share hope, is the true heart of evangelism. People can sense when your motive is to correct them versus when it’s to love them.

  5. Remember: God Gives the Increase. As Paul said:

    "Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed... I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase... So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase." (1 Corinthians 3:5–7)

    Our role is to plant and water—faithfully, gently, and lovingly. God handles the rest.

Always Include the Gospel

Every post or conversation should point to the central message of salvation:

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23)

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23)

"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." (Romans 10:9)

Will You Receive Christ Today?

If you’ve never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, the invitation is open:

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)

Right now, wherever you are, you can pray in your heart:

“Lord Jesus, I know I’m a sinner. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. I ask You to forgive me, come into my heart, and be my Savior. I trust You alone for my salvation. Amen.”


Let your posts be seeds, your comments be water, and your heart be a vessel of Christ’s love. Use social media boldly—but wisely—to spread the Gospel, not debates. Truth, not pride. Love, not strife.

And always remember: the power is not in the post, but in the God who gives the increase. 🌱

Are We Supposed to Call Out False Teachers—Or Just Their Teachings?

 

click on image for video

In a time when truth is often diluted in the name of tolerance, many believers are left asking: “Is it biblical to call out false teachers, or should we only address the false doctrines they promote?” Some say naming names is divisive or judgmental—but what does the Bible actually say?

In this article, we’ll go straight to Scripture to find out whether confronting false teaching—and false teachers—is a command for today’s church or merely a matter of personal conviction. What we discover may surprise some, but it's crystal clear: God’s Word does not suggest silence in the face of deception—it demands boldness, clarity, and truth!

Confronting False Teaching is a Biblical Command

The New Testament consistently urges believers, especially church leaders, to actively stand against false doctrine.

  • 2 Timothy 4:2 
    “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.”

This is not passive; it’s intentional correction. To “reprove” and “rebuke” implies directly confronting error—not merely avoiding it.

  • Titus 1:9 
    “Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.”

Calling out false teaching is not optional; it’s part of defending the faith.

Identifying False Teachers by Name is Also Biblical

Some argue we should “just correct the doctrine” and leave names out of it. But the Bible gives us clear examples where the apostles—especially Paul—name false teachers publicly.

  • 2 Timothy 2:17-18 
    “And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
    Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.”

  • 1 Timothy 1:19-20 
    “...Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.”

Paul didn’t merely condemn their teaching—he held the teachers accountable. When souls are at stake, naming the source of error is both loving and necessary.

  • Titus 1:11 
    “Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not...”

The Bible says their mouths must be stopped. This is a far cry from “let’s just agree to disagree.”


Jesus and John Also Warned of False Teachers

  • Matthew 7:15 
    “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”

Jesus warns of the deceptive nature of false teachers—appearing harmless while causing spiritual destruction.

  • 2 John 1:10-11 
    “If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
    For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”

We are not only called to avoid false teachers but are warned that even endorsing them makes us partakers in their deception.

Conclusion: It’s Not Just About Doctrine—It’s About Souls

The Bible, especially in the KJV, clearly mandates both the correction of false teaching and the exposure of false teachers. This isn’t about pride or personal attack—it’s about protecting the body of Christ.

Paul let Timothy know this.

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." (2 Timothy 4:3-4)

What did he say would be the remedy?

"Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine."

Why was it important that he use only the "word" and not his opinion?

"But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." (2 Timothy 3:5)

He was instructed to use the word to prove that what he was saying was scriptural. We see that in the latter part of verse 5.

"...do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry."  

In a world full of itching ears and smooth talkers, the church must rise with clarity, courage, and compassion to say:

“This is truth—and that is not.”



My dear friend, if you have never received Christ as your Saviour, would you do so today? Pray this from your heart. Dear Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died on the cross for my sins. I believe you were buried and rose again the third day. I ask you now to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart and save me. Amen

The Gospel According to Jim

 

click image for video


A Biblical Rebuttal to Jim Wallis and the Social Gospel Movement
In today’s climate of moral confusion and political agitation, voices like Jim Wallis have gained traction, not by proclaiming the timeless message of the Gospel, but by repackaging it through the lens of political ideology. Wallis’s recent book, The False White Gospel: Rejecting Christian Nationalism, Reclaiming True Faith, and Refounding Democracy, purports to rescue Christianity from what he labels as “white supremacy” and “autocracy.” But his message—cloaked in biblical language—is not the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is "another gospel" entirely.

The Apostle Paul had strong words for those who would pervert the simplicity and power of the true Gospel. “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed” (Galatians 1:8). In this article, we will examine Wallis’s central themes, contrast them with the Word of God, and expose how the so-called "social gospel" aligns more with Marxist class warfare than with the message of Christ crucified.

One Message Then, One Message Now

Jesus gave the Church one central message in Matthew 28:19–20:

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

This was not a call to establish earthly governments or refound democracy. It was a divine commission to preach His death, burial, and resurrection—the only means by which men are saved. As Paul declared with unwavering clarity:
“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:2).

The early Church did not grow because it championed social reform, advocated economic equity, or restructured politics. It grew because it preached Christ—“whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood” (Romans 3:25). To exchange that message for one of civic activism is to trade gold for gravel.

The Social Gospel: A Political Trojan Horse

Jim Wallis’s narrative is not new. The so-called “social gospel” emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, attempting to marry Christianity with socialist ideas of economic and class equity. But behind the noble language of justice and love lies a troubling reality—it seeks to use Christianity as a vehicle for political revolution.

Wallis argues that “White Christian Nationalism” must be dismantled. But in doing so, he creates a straw man. The true Gospel never exalted nationalism, nor did it call for political purity tests. Instead, it calls for regeneration, the inner transformation of the heart.

By reframing Christianity as a struggle between oppressed and oppressor classes, Wallis echoes the Marxist playbook. Marxism depends on class conflict to justify revolution; likewise, the social gospel stokes division under the guise of compassion. It aims to separate society into classes; the new birth unites all into the Body of Christ...the true Church!

 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."(Galatians 3:28).

A Faith for All, But A Gospel for Few

In his own words, Wallis claims this book is “not only for Christians but for all faith traditions, and even those with no faith at all.” But Jesus was not so inclusive. He declares that he is the only way to God! All faith traditions with not have a seat in the Kingdom of God! Read these verses from the Word of God that refute the idea of "all faith traditions, and even those with no faith at all” being in Heaven.

“I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6).

"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)

"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." (Revelation 22:14-15)

Wallis promotes what he calls “a politics of neighbor love,” yet neglects the ultimate act of love: Christ’s sacrificial death. The Gospel is not about civic virtue; it is about divine redemption. The Church is not called to be an agent of democracy but an ambassador of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:20).

His reinterpretation of “love” exchanges the cross for consensus, repentance for reform, and truth for tolerance. This is not the love of Scripture, which says,

“Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good” (Romans 12:9).

The Weaponization of Scripture

Wallis appeals to “six iconic texts” in Scripture but refuses to anchor them in the context of Christ’s redemptive work. He uses Scripture not as a mirror to reveal sin, but as a hammer to smash political opponents. He quotes Jesus’ words, “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32), but rips them from their foundation. The full context reveals this truth is not civic virtue—it is Christ Himself.

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).

Freedom in Christ is not political liberation; it is freedom from the penalty of sin. To preach otherwise is to preach another Jesus, another spirit, another gospel (2 Corinthians 11:4).

"But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him." (2 Corinthians 11:3-4)

Reclaiming True Faith: Christ Alone

True faith does not need to be reclaimed from political nationalism—it needs to be reclaimed from false teachers like Jim Wallis. The Church must return to its foundation:

"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" (1 Corinthians 15:1–4).

This is the only message that saves. This is the only Gospel the Church was commissioned to preach. This Gospel transcends race, politics, culture, and class. It does not need to be repackaged for relevance or leveraged for legislative reform. It stands eternal.

Conclusion: Beware of the Gospel of Jim Wallis

Jim Wallis’s The False White Gospel claims to confront a false gospel—but in doing so, it creates its own. His call to “refound democracy” in the name of Jesus is not biblical, but political. His message is not the Gospel of grace, but a social agenda cloaked in Scripture.

Margaret Atwood may say, “Everyone who claims to be Christian needs to read this book,” but I say, everyone who claims to be Christian needs to read the Bible. Because only the true Gospel can save. And that Gospel is not democracy, not social justice, and not neighbor politics. It is Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

Let the Church stand where it has always stood: on the finished work of Jesus Christ at Calvary!

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18).


My dear friend, if you have never received Christ as your Saviour, would you do so today? Pray this from your heart. Dear Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died on the cross for my sins. I believe you were buried and rose again the third day. I ask you now to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart and save me. Amen

Article: Are Words Important?

click image for article


We have published an article on Medium titled "Are Words Important"? as a companion piece to our series "Marxism in the Church: Setting the Stage for the Antichrist? 

In a world flooded with information, voices, and ever-changing opinions, one question stands out: Do words still matter? For the believer, the answer is a resounding yes—because God’s Word is not just important; it is essential. In the pages of Scripture, we’re told that the words of the Lord are pure, powerful, and life-giving. From Genesis to Revelation, God never speaks without purpose. And if He has gone to great lengths to preserve His Word, shouldn’t we go to great lengths to treasure it?

This article explores the eternal value of God’s words, why the King James Bible stands uniquely preserved, and why it has faced such relentless opposition since 1611. We invite you to reflect, dig deep, and consider just how vital every word truly is.



My dear friend, if you have never received Christ as your Saviour, would you do so today? Pray this from your heart. Dear Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died on the cross for my sins. I believe you were buried and rose again the third day. I ask you now to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart and save me. Amen

Marxism in the Church: Setting the Stage for the Antichrist? (Part 4)


 
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." (Ephesians 6:12)


"If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3)


Cancel Culture, Marxism, and the Church

1. The Biblical Mandate for Male Spiritual Leadership 

The Bible gives a clear, God-ordained responsibility to men—especially husbands and fathers—to lead their families spiritually:

  • Ephesians 5:23 – “For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.”

  • Ephesians 6:4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.”

  • 1 Timothy 3:4-5 “One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)”

According to Scripture, spiritual neglect by fathers doesn’t just affect families—it reverberates through generations, thereby weakening a nation from within its foundations. We see the Bible giving insight into this truth in this verse.

"If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3)


Karl Marx was fundamentally against traditional structures—religion, family, capitalism—because he saw them as tools of oppression. He and Engels famously called for the abolition of the family in The Communist Manifesto. Fast forward to modern movements:

Cultural Marxism
(or neo-Marxism), influenced by thinkers like Antonio Gramsci and the Frankfurt School, shifted the revolution from economic to cultural realms—targeting institutions like the nuclear family, the church, and gender roles.

The goal: disrupt the “status quo” by deconstructing traditional values.

Movements that promote gender fluidity, patriarchy as oppression, or sensationalize manhood in general as inherently toxic fit into that ideological lineage—even if modern activists aren’t consciously quoting Marx.

4. Cancel Culture & Toxic Masculinity as Tools

Cancel Culture punishes traditional expressions of masculinity, especially those rooted in moral clarity, conviction, and authority. It shames men for speaking up, leading boldly, or embracing biblical manhood.

The result? Men withdraw. They doubt their instincts. They stay silent. Spiritually, this is devastating.

If spiritual leadership is portrayed as oppressive or abusive, many men abdicate their role altogether. And if fathers step back, the enemy knows the family often collapses from within.

5. A Subversive Attack?

Yes—this is more than cultural. It is spiritual warfare, and the Bible confirms that there are unseen forces at work:

Ephesians 6:12 – “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Undermine the father → weaken the family → collapse the nation. The enemy knows this. That’s why we see an intentional dismantling of biblical masculinity. But Scripture also reminds us that God equips men to stand:

1 Corinthians 16:13“Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.”

This is not the time for retreat—it is the time for righteous resistance.

Final Thoughts: A Call to Biblical Manhood

If the devil can silence or sideline men, he can spiritually starve homes and societies. But God is calling men today to rise:

  • To lead boldly, love deeply, and serve sacrificially.

  • To shepherd their homes with prayer, the Word, and courage.

  • To reclaim their roles, not with pride, but with holy purpose.

Joshua 24:15 (KJV)“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

In our next installment we will begin to look at the organization behind the growing epidemic of Critical Theory replacing Sound Doctrine in churches around the world. 

Stay tuned.



My dear friend, if you have never received Christ as your Saviour, would you do so today? Pray this from your heart. Dear Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died on the cross for my sins. I believe you were buried and rose again the third day. I ask you now to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart and save me. Amen

God is an A**hole: Jezebel Spirit Mocks God!

 

Click image for video

This young lady needs our prayers. She obviously had something go terribly wrong in her life spiritually. The issue at hand is this. Parents, we must be careful as well in our training to take time and listen to our children when they have questions.

My Bible tells me that one of the reasons we are seeing this type of behavior in the Church, is the fact that fathers are not doing the job as spiritual leaders of the family. We see in these passages of scripture that fathers are the ones that God will hold accountable.

"And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." (Ephesians 6:4)

"Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged." (Colossians 3:21)

Mothers were never tasked with being the spiritual leaders of the family, but by in large, these days they are the only spiritual leaders that their children see. This is a sad commentary on the American family today!

Pray for America! Pray for our families! Pray for those churches that have adopted Marxism and the Social Gospel over the Gospel of Christ!

Protect our children from going down the tragic path this young lady has chosen!

My heart is broken for this young lady and many more like her. 

Fathers! Wake up! God will hold YOU accountable for the precious children he has entrusted you with!

My dear friend, if you have never received Christ as your Saviour, would you do so today? Pray this from your heart. Dear Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died on the cross for my sins. I believe you were buried and rose again the third day. I ask you now to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart and save me. Amen
