The following program is sponsored by What's Right, What's Left Ministries and is responsible for its content.
Portions of the following program may be pre-recorded. I am Pastor Ernie Sanders, the voice of the Christian Resistance. Stay tuned, my radio broadcast, What's Right, What's Left, is coming up right now.
Coming to you live from Independence, Ohio. We change our life for the better in many different ways. Heard around the world every Monday through Friday. Pastor Sanders is always years ahead of the rest of the media telling you exactly what they're covering up.
This is What's Right, What's Left. I tune in every chance I get to hear exactly what's going on with the voice of the Christian Resistance. Unabashedly cutting through the rhetoric by exposing the hard topics facing our society and world.
A lot of the other news medias don't pick up the news items like he does. And bring into light the enemies of freedom who are out to steal your rights, your children and enslaving you. You really get the truth out.
I can tune into your show and hear the unvarnished truth. Thank you. This is What's Right, What's Left, with Pastor Ernie Sanders. Good evening and welcome to another edition of What's Right, What's Left, the voice of the Christian Resistance. On this 29th day in June, oh boy, one more day left in this month.
This year has gone by fast, I mean very fast already. Anyhow, my very, very highly esteemed co-host tonight is none other than, let's see, what was his name again? Highly esteemed. Highly, highly esteemed Kenny.
Yeah, really. Well, good evening, Pastor. Good evening. You know what, we have to start this program off with tonight. Just before I left church, one of the ladies, Christine, came to me to tell me that she was just diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer.
And that's not good. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to do the best thing I can do to help her, okay? This is one thing that can help her more than anything else and that's prayer, okay? And the folks out there listening, all the folks out there listening, the ones that don't believe in the power of prayer, someday if they're saved, someday they will believe in the power of prayer. And so I'm asking them tonight to join with me because remember, and I always remind you what the Word of God teaches, those that show mercy receive it. And tonight Christine needs prayer, but tomorrow it may be you. And many of you may need prayer even as we're speaking tonight. So join with me, just, you know, amen, just yes, yes, Lord, as we pray for her. Heavenly Father, Lord God, as we come before you, Lord, I'm asking that you would come and you would touch Christine in this situation, Father God. Lord, you know, we know, we know, Father God, all you have to do is say the Word and she's healed completely.
And this is what we want. We want her not only to be healed, but Lord, in that healing we want her, Father, to dedicate her life that her desires be turned towards you more and more every day and every way and all things at all times. Lord, that she becomes a real firebrand for you, for service to you. So, Lord, touch Christine, bless her in every area where she can receive that blessing, Father God, with a complete and total healing.
We pray in Jesus' precious name. Amen. Amen.
All righty. Title of the message tonight, this is an interesting message. It's called, Cursing and Swearing, Threats and Old Wives Tells. Now, again, because President Trump, you know, here, what he did, he lost it. He lost it last week and he dropped the F-bomb right on national television. Now, here, right away, right away, what they call legacy media, they turned on the echo chamber, reverberating throughout the entire echo chamber, on the left, you know, accusing of us, of hypocrisy. Because, you know, we've been hitting them, you know, recently, you know, in the past few months, in fact, since back in the last spring, they have been using profanity. I mean, the leftists come out and, remember, we did a couple of programs and when asked why, when asked why they were using such profanity, they were saying that that is their way of showing us that they are very, very angry. That they want us to know how angry they are. And so, but the interesting thing was, the vast majority of what, at least, was in the media, were the women in the Congress, those women in the Congress with potty mouths, I mean, dropping the F-bomb everywhere, all over the place and taking God's name in vain, not just the women, some of the males, I won't call them men, but some of the males did. But I would say probably what came out on television, what came out on the news, on the internet, I would say probably 80-90% of those dropping the F-bomb were women. And so, here, and they were accusing, because, you know, we went after them, big time for doing that, and now, here, they're saying what hypocrites we are, because here is the President of the United States coming out and dropping the F-bomb on national news. Oh, but you're not going to say anything about him, are you?
No, right? But now, here's, he did a lot more damage than he, I think, even realizes how much damage he did, because he set a very, very bad example. You know, there are people out there, do you remember when he got shot?
Yeah. What they did is, afterwards, when they went down and they went to interview some of the people that were up close to the stage, down below, there were two people in particular. One, a young woman, she would have been pretty had it not been for her mouth, she was dropping every foul word you can imagine. What a very, a poor, poor, poor witness, okay? And then you had this bald-headed guy, probably in his 40s, with an earring, and he was doing the same thing.
It was like a contest between the two of them to see who could drop the most profanity there. And so, you have people out there, Ken, that they take Mega to a higher level, where they literally worship President Trump. I mean, it's gotten to where, and I did a message on this, too, and he needs to do this, he needs to come out, really, and tell people, you know, not to worship him.
Because, really, some of them are, you know, it was like back in the days of Elvis, how these women were literally worshipping Elvis, praying to him and things. And so, here for Trump to do that, when he did that, you have a lot of people that are very, very gullible. I mean, and I'm talking about professing Christians, I'm talking about those that are professing Christians, and to have someone of authority and stature, like President Trump, do that. That sends a signal to them, if the President, if it's all right for him to do it, it's all right for me to do it, too. And so, that's the mindset.
So, he did a lot of damage. Yeah, that's a very bad example. And what he needs to do is, he really needs to, if I could talk to him, I'd tell him, you really need to come out, you really need to walk that back and tell folks how you've lost your temper, and you need to apologize for doing that, okay?
And let them know that you don't feel very big about what you did. And so, here now, did you ever notice something, too? Have you ever heard of the opposition of Buddhists? Have you ever heard a Buddha say, Buddha, dammit? No. What about the Muslims? Have you ever heard a Muslim say, Allah, dammit? No, no, you won't hear any of those. Krishna, Krishna, dammit? Or even Satan? No.
No, you don't. But you hear Christians, professing Christians and Jews, professing people that are Christians and Jews, and you will hear them taking the Lord's name in vain. And we're going to start tonight in Exodus chapter 20, with just one verse, verse 7, Thou shall not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain, for the Lord will not hold them guiltless that taketh his name in vain. And so, when you talk to some of these people, I used to have, when I had the furniture stores, I had a sign right there at the counter, by the counter. It says, God's last name is not damn, and profanity will not be tolerated here, in this store, okay? And so here, because people would come in and I, you know, I was offended. I know some people today that, I mean, I have some friends that really, really should know better, really should know better. But they drop the F-bomb all the time.
And they're, I mean, of course they don't do it around me anymore, but when they don't know I'm listening, I hear them doing it. And then I hear, you know, I tell people that usually when people use profanity like that all the time, there's three reasons they do it. The first is they have a very limited vocabulary. The second, they have not a very good upbringing.
And the third, a low IQ. And that usually gets their attention. And hardly anybody really wants to debate it, because then they have to acknowledge the fact that they've been using profanity. No, and then it puts their vocabulary and IQ on full display if they try to debate it.
Absolutely. And so here, and what they, you know, if you ask some of these people, why do you do that? Why do you take the Lord's name in vain? They'll say, well, no, I'm asking, it's like an imprecatory prayer. They're asking that, they're asking God to curse this.
When they say, you know, use the GD, they're asking, but no, that's taking God's name in vain. The Bible definitely tells you never to do that. And so, here now, I want to go over to Jeremiah chapter 23. And in Jeremiah chapter 23, verses 10-31. For the land is full of adulterers, for because of swearing, the land mourneth, the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right. Let me ask you this. How many times have you ever heard even a preacher preach on swearing? I don't think I ever have.
At least nothing's coming to mind. And for a good reason, they don't. They don't. For both prophets and priests are profaned, yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the Lord. Now there's two kinds of swearing. He's referring to the profanity, and then they make false swear. They swear by this or they swear by that.
I swear by my mother's grave, or I swear by this or that. And they're told expressly not to do that. Wherefore, their ways shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness. They shall be driven on and fall therein, for I will bring evil upon them even in the year of their visitation, saith the Lord. And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria. They prophesied in Baal and caused my people, Israel, to err. I have seen also the prophets of Jerusalem, and a horrible thing, they commit adultery and they walk in lies.
They strengthen also the hands of evildoers. That none doth return from the wickedness. They are all of them unto me even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and inhabit it there as Gomorrah. Now, here today, you have, like, what they call the legacy news media, especially the Spectrum One News here in Cleveland, they really seem to celebrate sodomy. They celebrate. When they talk about LGBTQ, lewd, gross, belligerent, trans, Christian, queers, do you think that these people, I'm wondering if there's even one single Christian, even one, that works on Spectrum One News?
And probably not anyone with any kind of power by any means. Yeah. You know, it's an amazing thing. But here, God uses Sodom and Gomorrah often to show his utter disdain and how vile he believes that this is. How repulsive. It's an abomination.
Yeah. The sin is, okay? Therefore, saith the Lord of hosts concerning the prophets, behold, I will feed them with wormwood and make them drink the water of gall, for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land. Thus saith the Lord of hosts, hearken not into the words of the prophets that prophesies unto you, they make you vain, they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord. They say unto them that despise me, the Lord hath said, you shall have peace, and they say unto everyone that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, no evil shall come upon you, for who has stood in the counsel of the Lord, and who hath perceived and heard his word, who hath marked his word, and heard it? Behold, a whirlwind of the Lord is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind, and it shall fall grievously upon the heads of the wicked. The anger of the Lord shall not return until he has executed, until he has performed the thoughts of his heart.
In the later days you shall consider it perfectly. I have sent these prophets, yes, they ran, I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in my counsel and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way and from the evil of their doings. In other words, God sent these prophets out to do exactly that, and they disobeyed God.
They went where they followed Mammon. Get any hide himself in secret places, that I shall not see him, saith the Lord. Do not I feel heaven and earth, saith the Lord? I have heard what the prophets said. The prophecy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, and I have dreamed. How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophecy lies?
Yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart, which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams, where they tell every man to his neighbor as though fathers have forgotten my name for bail. The prophets have a dream. Let him tell a dream, and he that hath my word let him speak my word faithfully.
What is the chaff to the wheat, saith the Lord? It is not my word like a fire, saith the Lord, and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces. Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that steal my words every one from his neighbor. Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that use their tongues and say, He saith.
In other words, he has said what the Lord has said when the Lord has not spoken. So when it comes to these peoples having these dreams and, you know, just broadcasting this type of stuff, who is it that has the most of these so-called, that we hear them preaching about how the Lord spoke to them in a dream, or here or this, or how the Lord spoke to them? I don't know their names. All these fake preachers out there, I really don't. I don't pay that much attention to them. How about the prosperity preachers? Exactly. They're out there. I mean, some of them really come up with some huge, huge lies.
Jesse Duplantis actually said, I should get that and play that on the radio, that Jesus would stop by his church every now and then and just stop by and come on in, and usually he would just stop by for some advice. The absurdity of that. Yep. But, you know, these people, but Jesse draws a large crowd. Large paycheck.
Because they fleece the flock. Yep. There's one born every minute out there, and, you know, these people are just, it just amazes me, because they'll say, Jesse, what advice did you give him? You know?
It just feeds right into it. And then the one time he said, well, he said one day he said that Jesus stopped in and I looked at him and he looked so forlorn, so, just so discouraged, and I went over there and I kind of loved up on him a little bit, you know? I hugged him and told him and we talked and when we were finished talking, he felt much better. He had all that anxiety was gone.
Jesse kind of healed him, you know? Yeah. Wow. Yeah. But people do this, okay?
It just baffles me that people fall for that and actually, that there's people out there that actually believe stuff like that. Yeah. Well, you remember Paula White. Paula, the Lord told her that, the Lord told her that wherever she stands is holy ground. Wherever she stands is holy ground, even if she's in her miniskirt, huh?
Yeah, apparently. And then she said that the Lord had told her that when she speaks, God speaks. When she speaks, God speaks. Well, I'm going to tell you, there's, like we said, I mean, they, in the prosperity church, they play off the greed.
They play off the greed of people, don't they? Mm hmm. And so, here now, I want to go over to 1 Timothy chapter 4. In 1 Timothy chapter 4, verses 6 through 10. If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, that shall be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith, and of a good doctrine, whereinto thou hast attained, but refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather with godliness.
For by thy exercise profit little, but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, for therefore we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those that believe. So, today there are those out there that, on the left, that claim, to see if this sounds possibly like, maybe we fit in that category of an old wives' tale, that men have had babies?
Yes, I would think so. Have you heard that boys can be born with a girl's body? In other words... Yeah, apparently. That's, wow, I mean, it's amazing what they can come up with these days, but yeah, I guess, and no one knows what a woman is, but I guess a boy can be born in a woman's body. Yeah, or a girl can be born in a boy's body.
This is amazing. Women who believe in a mother God, in a mother God, you know, St. John's Cathedral there in New York, I went in there, it was huge, and they had this woman Christa upon a cross, a naked woman upon a cross. Oh yeah, a naked woman upon a cross. Their God was Christa, not Christ. They've got the Messiah as Christa. They've got mother God. This is some of what the feminists teach.
It's a female version of Jesus. And today the old wives' tale is that if you go out in the woods and you scream and you curse at the trees, that this can help take away your Trump derangement syndrome. Remove their anxiety. They want to sue Trump.
They want to have a mass lawsuit against Trump for causing them anxiety. Yeah. The absurdity of all of this is, it's crazy.
There's some lunacy there, isn't there? Just a little. And to see them out there screaming at the trees. Man, I feel bad for nature.
Yeah. So, I want to go over to 1 Timothy chapter 6. And 1 Timothy chapter 6. Just two verses, verse 20 and 21. O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust. Avoid profane and vain babblings, and the opposition of science falsely so-called, which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.
Okay. Here, actually that word where it says, O Timothy, keep, that word there, keep, actually means to guard. Guard it against those that distort, those that spin, those that pervert the doctrine of truth. Here... Well, and I think that's what they're doing with this whole born in the wrong body thing. I mean, that's them trying to weaken your image of God, I think, because our perfect God apparently, according to them, made a mistake by putting this boy in this girl's body.
And has done that numerous times, which we both know, and everyone listening knows the stupidity of that, but that's really what they're trying to do. Well, it's, you know, what you have here is pointless philosophies, and with these children, you know, who's, you know, their mind is, you know, maturing, they convince it's easy to put doubt, it's easy to plant thoughts in the minds of these children. And, you know, here, children get confused. I remember when I was a young man, at times, believe it or not, I would get confused, right? I never thought I was a girl. I was going to ask if you ever thought you were in the wrong body. I know. Not that confused. Yeah.
No, I never thought I was a girl at all, and I knew better than that, boy, and I was glad. But anyhow, there are some of the, well, let's take a look at some of this stuff today, some of these very vain philosophies. How about this? Diversity, equity, and inclusion. Now, would you call that a very vain, vain philosophy?
Yeah, probably. I mean, I wouldn't, I don't think it's much of a philosophy. I think it's pretty much just, you know, putting, I think it's actually racist, because you're putting people ahead of people because of race, as opposed to, because of race and gender, as opposed to just on their own merits. Well, you know, see, you sound like one of those racist white men, because you would probably, you would probably want, if you were going to have open-heart surgery, you're one of those people that might want the best-qualified surgeon, even if it was a white man, when, you know, you should be able to get a, you know, depending on how many surgeons there are, even if the least qualified were Asian or black, or if that was the other way around, you really would want to go, I mean, you'd want to be fair, right, and let one of the minorities do your heart surgery, not necessarily the best qualified, right? Yeah, no, no, that's not, not at all. I would want the best that I could possibly get, and that goes for every aspect of life.
I mean, why would you, why would you not want the best? Well, because that's being racist. That has nothing to do with race. It really doesn't.
Okay, see, now what you're trying to do is… Now you understand that, personally, and I know you're trying to play the other side there, but I mean, you can't even really do that that well, because of how stupid that argument is. Let's move on to inclusion. We'll move on to inclusion, because, you know, here, to think that they would only put Tampax in girls' bathrooms and totally ignore the boys, to disclude them, not allow them to have Tampax, and Governor Walz would not put up with that, and either would that so-called governor out there in California, he would not, not put up with that. They were going to put, they put those, those boys had every right to Tampax as the girls, right?
Yeah, I think they're all in the pocket of big Tampax. Okay, and so, that's inclusion. Well, they're just trying to double the profits for that company. That's really what it is.
I think they're bought out. That's inclusion. That's where, where, you know… Where you give people things that they don't need. Yeah, and not just that, but, you know, when it comes to sports, you know, just making, only allowing women to participate in women's sports, that's not inclusion. No, no, not at all, no. You've got to have men in women's sports, that's inclusion. Well, what is, what is a woman? Well, I know what one is, but, you know, I don't want to, maybe we shouldn't say, because it could confuse the Democrats if they're listening out there. But, anyhow, what about, what about equity? I don't even understand equity. Equity means that, again, you have to go by, let's say, let's say we have a hundred job openings. Okay, and Hispanics are seventeen percent of the population, and blacks are fifteen percent of the population, the Orientals are nineteen percent of the population, okay. Does it, does it matter qualifications? Oh, so then nineteen percent of those would have to go to Asian, of those jobs would have to go to, say sixteen percent would have to go to Latino, yeah. Regardless of qualifications, okay.
Right, so if you're an air traffic controller, or you want to be, and you haven't learned yet, let's just say you're going to school, but they have a slot to fill, so they'll put you in that slot, whether you're qualified or not. You see, because... That's safe. Equity will rule out common sense. Equity overrules common sense. Common sense is, you know, common sense is a swear word to a Democrat.
It is, okay. It's the only one that they don't want to hear. Yeah, what about this, where it says, in opposition of science, falsely so-called, what is, what would you say would be the biggest example of science, falsely so-called? Probably the COVID shots.
Well, the COVID, I'd say that would be... I mean, that was just flat out lying. Well, it was lying, but that would be, I would say, a war crime.
I mean, they declared war on the American people. Yeah. No, science, falsely so-called, would be evolution.
Oh, okay, yeah. The teaching of evolution. I mean, first of all, there has never been a creation that didn't have a creator. Nothing can create itself. Nothing can create itself, okay? Even A.I. can't create itself. A.I. has to have been created. It can improve itself or empower itself, but it can't create itself.
Yeah, I mean, even if you look at, like, the big bank theory, where everything was condensed and then it exploded, and, okay, well, if you believe that, then where did all that matter come from? Well, see, I've done figured it out because I heard, what's his name? Oh, I just had his name on the tip of my tongue here just a minute ago. Neil deGrasse Tyson? No. Dr. Michio Kaku?
No, keep going. He talked like this. Giorgio Sokolos?
No, 50 million years ago. Carl Sagan. Carl Sagan. Carl Sagan.
Okay. Carl Sagan. Carl Sagan.
He explained it very clearly here. See, he said 50 billion years ago there was nothing. No you, no me, nothing, okay? And then there was a klasmatic explosion. And out of that klasmatic explosion came everything. All matter existed.
So I'm thinking I sit here. So what exploded? Well, see, here's it. First of all, 50 billion years ago there was nobody, but somebody that wasn't there, somebody that wasn't there took a power, a power force, a power source that didn't exist. And that power source that didn't exist by that person that wasn't there ignited, ignited this material. That wasn't there.
That wasn't there. And when that material that wasn't there was ignited by that person that wasn't there using that power source that didn't exist, everything that does exist came out of that. And that's what they teach in the public schools today. So I would definitely say that that would be science so falsely so called.
And so. Well, it's like evolution, like any of these crazy theories that people come up with, as soon as you start questioning it, you realize how stupid it actually is, but like the theory of evolution. Okay, just because there are similarities between humans and monkeys, now all of a sudden we evolved from monkeys. But if that's the case, why are there still monkeys? Yeah, I don't see any evolving to you.
No, no. There's no, there's no half humans, half monkeys out there. There's no like there's, there's nothing in between the monkey and the human.
There's no quote unquote missing link. And if, like I said, if that was the case, if we evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys? Shouldn't they have been evolved out of, out of, out of existence? Do you know who it was that came up with that so called theory of evolution?
No, I have no idea. Satan. Actually, that's where it came from.
Okay. But the very founder that came up with that theory, so called of evolution. He had made a statement one time, and the statement was that he couldn't believe that people would take the theories of a young scientist. It was Charles Darwin, by the way, who actually had been going to school, to seminary, to become a pastor.
Oh, wow. And so here, Charles Darwin said that he was totally amazed that people would take the theories of a young scientist and turn them into a religion. And he said if there's one thing that would totally disprove his theory, altogether it's the human eye.
The human eye could not have evolved. And so when you think about this, well, you know, when you think about some things, you know, like giraffes, you know, they eat the leaves that grow high up on the trees. That's why they have those long necks. What did they do before they had their necks evolved? Ate the leaves lower to the ground?
Yeah, that would be... No, no, they only ate the leaves up high. What about the bumblebee? You know, the bumblebee is one of the most clumsiest things you ever want to see. If you ever watch them land, they bounce around. Did you know that theoretically, a bumblebee with its small wings and its big, fat body should not be able to fly? Yeah, science can't figure out how it can fly.
It shouldn't be able to, right? And so here, all of these things, like Darwin said, but this is science so falsely called, science falsely called out there. And so here, what does he refer this to? Avoid profane and vain babylenes. Vain babylenes. And that's what the teaching of evolution is. That's what D-E-I is.
It's a vain babylene, okay? Let's turn over to 2 Timothy chapter 2. And in 2 Timothy chapter 2, verses 14 through 19. Of these things, put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. Study to show thyself approved unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of God, but shun profane and vain babylenes, they will increase into more ungodliness. And the 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. Nevertheless, the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal. The Lord knoweth them that are his. Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. Now, here, there are those that are perverting the scriptures by saying that if you don't speak in tongues, we've heard some of this recently, right? If you don't speak in tongues, you won't go to heaven because you're not saved. Because you're not saved, yeah. This is vain babylenes.
These are vain babylenes. This is pure nonsense. There are those that are saying that there's universal salvation, universal salvation, meaning that God has now forgiven all sin. God has now forgiven all sin.
So do whatever you want, yeah. I never heard that announcement coming from God, have you? No, which chapter, what book was that in?
Yeah. Here, they're saying that everyone is going to be saved now. Everyone will be saved. All our sins have been forgiven. That's not scripturally accurate. No, it's called heresy. Okay.
Now, I'm kind of taken aback, utterly, by people that will ignore the knowledge, the wisdom, the accuracy, and the complete authority of God's Word, the Bible, and then waste their precious time on lesser learning from things like novels or FaceTime on the Internet. It's amazing. You know, when he says, when he talks about Hymenaeus and Philetus, do you know what Hymenaeus means, the name?
No. It means a singing man, a singing man. And Philetus means a happy man.
And I don't know, maybe Hymenaeus was happy or was singing because Philetus was so happy, I don't know. But here, do you know what they did? They went and they told the apostles that the rapture had taken place. Yeah, that had already happened. Yeah, this is what Paul discusses over in 2 Thessalonians chapter 2. Now, do you think that teaching is being taught again today yet?
Oh, probably. Yeah, it's called Preterist. Do you know what a Preterist is? They believe that the rapture has already taken place and that the tribulation period took place in 70 A.D. What do you think about that? That sounds crazy to me.
Well, that means that we would be in the millennial kingdom now and Jesus would be sitting on his throne in Jerusalem and we would have glorified bodies. Which is not accurate. No, I just looked at mine, it's anything but glorifying. No, mine's not that great either.
Horrified would be a better word. Probably depends on who you ask, but yeah, that's probably pretty accurate. Yeah, so here again he's referring to, these are vain, vain teachings out here. He says, Nevertheless, the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal. Do you know what the seal is? No, what do you mean by that? The seal is our salvation.
Okay. Our salvation is kept in heaven by God. See, this is why you can't lose your salvation.
You cannot lose it. I mean, you've got all kinds of contrary teachings to the word of God. The Bible does the stutter, it tells you very clearly that our salvation is kept in heaven by God. What was our salvation bought with? The blood of Jesus. Right, so the blood of Jesus was the most precious substance that ever existed. What's worth more, the salvation of hundreds of millions of people or the planets, the moons and the stars and so on?
What's worth more? Our salvation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And if it was ours to lose, we would lose it. Yes, right, because what would it take to lose your salvation?
Not much at all. It's all in now, that's all. So he's telling you that the Holy Spirit is the seal and Christ himself is the sealer of our salvation and it's kept in heaven. And that's good enough for me. And let's go now over to Proverbs chapter 26. And I may have to take a minute here and take a swig.
This is my third time. Let me see. I'm going to have to just take a quick swig here. I've got cranberry juice tonight. You know, it's an interesting thing on these bottles because I tell you, it tells you 100% juice, but do you know what juice can consist of? I mean, juice can consist of 99% water, 1% cranberry. And it can still be called 99% juice. That's because it's all juice now. Yeah. The one drop of juice.
All right. We have Proverbs 26 verses 1 through 5. A snow in the summer and there's rain and harvest, so honor is not seemly for a fool. Right now, today, when I think of a fool, when I think of a fool, you know what comes to my mind? Democrat. Well, yeah, Tim Walsh.
Tim Walsh is the first one, the very first one that comes to my mind is him. He's like a clown. But, you know, Alice's pencil neck, Adam Schiff. Yes. Yeah, this, you know, I just get a picture when I hear the word fool, I get a picture of those two in my mind. As the bud by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come. Let me read that again. As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come. Do you know what that means? No, that was, it got me a little confused. Hardly anybody knows what that means.
But, do you know what? It's like, do you know what an imprecatory prayer is, right? Would that be like a prayer that you don't need to say? No, an imprecatory prayer is a prayer that you will ask God to remove one of the wicked ones. It's in other words, it's a prayer that David, David prayed a lot of imprecatory prayers. Like, we would ask, you know, we would pray and ask the good Lord to remove people like Joe Biden, you know, who's done so much harm and wickedness, like Mary Orcus, these people that have hurt the children, that have hurt, you know, we would ask God because they won't repent.
Like Hillary, people that will not repent, that God might remove them to save, to spare the children. But here he's saying this, that when he says this, as a bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come. It's like saying an imprecatory prayer without justification. In other words, maybe you have an opinion but you have no proof. It's like trying to judge somebody's motive for doing something when you really can't.
You really have no idea. Right, and he's telling you that it's worthless, that it's not going to happen, it won't take place. They used to be saying, like a curse that's looking for some place to land, okay. And so, a whip for a horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back. Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be likened to him. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.
Do you know what that means? Is that kind of like not dumbing yourself down to someone else's level? Right, in other words, there's certain things like these people that want to come on, they want me to give them a platform to come on, they want to preach that there's universal salvation, that everyone's saved, there is no judgment, there is no, you know, to give them a platform. That's pure foolishness. Now... Yeah, why would you do that?
Well, I wouldn't, but you see, the reason they would want to do that is there's some gullible people out there. I remember this guy one time, I was sitting with some pastors, we were drinking coffee out in the Youngstown area, in the McDonald's, and this guy walks in and he sees me, and he comes walking over, and I said, you're just the person I'm looking for. And I said, how's that? He said, well, he had Rick Warren's book, The Promised Giving Life, or whatever it was, and I had just recently gone through that book, and it was filled for cover to cover. At first I thought it was simply errors, but then I saw they were very cleverly crafted. Very deceptions, okay?
The purpose-driven, it was the purpose-driven church, is what it was, and then you had the purpose-driven life. And so he said, I'd like to get these to some of the inmates in the prison. And I said, no, I said, you don't want to do that. I said, that book is filled from cover to cover with deceptions. And all the other pastors there told him, yeah, same thing. This guy literally put his hands over his ears.
He put his hands over his ears, and he said, I won't receive that. I know what I want to believe. I know what I want to believe. In other words, he was putting what he wanted to believe over what God's Word, the Bible, actually taught. And that book, Rick Warren, it was filled like very cleverly crafted deceptions from cover to cover, okay? And so here, that's what he's talking about here.
He said, don't give credence or credibility to their folly in anything. Now, I want to go very quickly over to Acts chapter 4. And in Acts chapter 4, starting with verse 23 through verse 31. And being let go, they went to their own company, and they reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said unto them. And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said, Lord, thou art God, which has made heaven and earth. And the sea and all that is in them, whom by the mouth of thy servant David has said, why did the heathen rage?
And the people of Adrian, imagine a vain thing. The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against his Christ. That has never been more prevalent than it is today.
Never. Today you have more anti-Christ out there, the anti-Israel, anti-Christian. And they're way more vocal than they've ever been.
Yeah. For the truth, against my holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel were gathered together. While old Herod and Pontius Pilate today are both believers today, just not believing they're not in the right place. So, anyhow, I just wanted to say, today, again, he goes on to threaten these guys. They threatened them, he says, to do whatsoever they have done.
They constantly determined before thee to do, to be done. And now the Lord behold, they're threatening in their grant unto thy servants. Well today, the threats are still coming from those that hate, they hate God. And the heathen are still raging, and again today Pontius Pilate, believe me, has no illusions of whose life. Remember what he said to Jesus? What is the truth? He knows now, doesn't he? And so folks out there listening, unless you want to end up with Pontius Pilate, believe me, Pontius Pilate and Herod are not in the good places today.
No way. And so, there's one way to avoid that, and the Bible tells you very clearly, it's the only way, the only way, is you pray to the Father, you repent of your sin, ask for forgiveness, then you ask the Lord Jesus to be the Lord of your life, all of your life, with absolutely no reservations. He's got to be first, you've got to put him first. Remember, when he took your place upon that cross, he put you before himself.
Now you have to put him first in all your life, and then you can avoid that burning lake of fire. There's no in-between, it's either heaven or hell folks, believe me, there won't be any in-between. And believe me, you don't want to get to the latter. That's reality. Life is filled with absolutes, and that's one of the absolutes there. You're going to die as one, and you're going to end up in heaven or hell, so you don't have to go to hell.
God gives you a way out. And we're about out of time for tonight, aren't we? So, at this time, how much time do I have? We've got about 30 seconds. Right at this time is when we always say, thanks for being here, thanks for listening.
Good night, and have a happy fourth if I don't talk to you before then. God bless. And remember, always, always, always, let's do it. Keep fighting the fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight. The preceding program is sponsored by What's Right, What's Left Ministries and is responsible for its content.
