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 Satter. 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. Changed 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 other news media 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 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 on this 18th day of October, 2026. And tonight, my producer is none other than the mighty Andrew. Hey, are you there, mighty Andrew? Mighty Andrew, are you there?
He's not answering. Hold on one second, Pastor. We have an issue in the studio.
Okay.
Okay.
There you go. It's a good thing Mighty Andrew's there because he's got an issue in the studio, and so with that, while we're waiting. I don't know if I should if I should start the program if I am being broadcast or if something's happening. Oh, okay, yeah.
Well, I am here. Look out, mighty Andrew! Be careful.
Okay, anyhow, the title of the message. What he was saying. There is another suspicious character there at the radio station. Folks, they don't like me, but I'm I'm in a different location tonight. I'm in a different location.
I'm not I'm not there, and so they're going to be surprised. Anyhow, who knows? Maybe it's maybe it could be a friendly. You know, not not everybody wants to shoot me. Just enough.
Anyhow. Title of the message is "No Lie is of the Truth." No lie is of the truth, and we're going to start tonight. That's out of First John two twenty one, and we're going to start tonight, though, in First Timothy chapter three verses fourteen through sixteen. And we read these things writing to you, hoping to come into you shortly. But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know.
How that ought to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and the ground of truth.
Well, you know the context around this verse is stressing the officers and activities of the local church, through well, kind of like a greater meaning here concerning the church consistence. Of all, consisting of all true Christians of every nation and time as a whole, the Church is the house of God. Ephesians two nineteen through twenty two and First Peter two one through five. The Church of the first born. Hebrews twelve twenty three.
In God's building, it's therefore here called the pillar and the ground of truth. These principles were applied to Timothy in the local church at Ephesus, where Paul had sent him for a time being, but also everywhere he could go. On later on, he said, "But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know that thou oughtest behave thyself." But then he goes on in verse sixteen, and without controversy, great is the mystery of godliness. God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, and received up into glory.
Well, here, when we talk about the mystery of the church, you know, one, first of all, it's through we understand believers. That mystery, because God's wills made known to us, His plans, His uniting of the Jews and the Gentiles into one body of Christ, the mystery we understand about the future rapture of the church, about the being changed in an instant, being the glorified body. Most of all, the death, burial, and the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. The world.
Well, the word, not the world. The word became flesh, and dwelt among us. The incarnation of the Lord Jesus. When God became man, it was seen of angels for the first time, as the babe in the moon, in the manger, and in human form.
Well. What do we mean by that?
Well, I think in order to understand that we have to go over here to First Timothy six and read verse sixteen. We read, "Who only hath immortality dwelling." Well, let me go back a verse.
Okay, in fact, let's go back a couple verses. That this, that thou keep this commandment without spot, un. Rebukable until the appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ, which in his times he shall show, who is blessed and only potentate, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, who only hath immortality dwelling in the light, which no man can approach into, whom no man hath seen, nor can see, to whom be honor and power and everlasting. Amen.
So God, in His glory, His chakana glory. No man can see and live. But you say, wait a minute, I don't understand that. Didn't Jesus appear as a man in the plains of Mamre? Didn't he appear as a man?
Yeah, he appeared as a man, but he was in a human form. That was what we call Christophany. It was God appearing as a human, as a man. Not until his birth by Mary in Bethlehem did he become a human, and so the angels, although the angels saw him like like others in a Christophany, the appearance of man, they never saw him actually as a human until that night. When all the angels came and all the shepherds came to see him, and so here now, where we're starting out again, the title of this message is "No Lie Is of the Truth." So here we're dealing directly with the truth, and I want to go now to.
John, the Gospel of John, chapter eight, because now we're getting into what is so prevalent in the world today. And in the Gospel of John, chapter eight, verse forty-four, we read this.
Well, I'm going to go back to verse forty-three. No, forty-two. Jesus said unto them. If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded forth and came from God, and neither came I of myself, but He sent me. He's talking about the Father has sent Him.
Now He says, Why do you not understand? Why, why do you not understand my speech? Even because you cannot hear my word. You are of your father, the devil.
Now here, he is talking to the religious leaders, there, the scribes and Pharisees, and he is telling them, "You're not holy people like you proclaim." He said, "But you are children." In fact, here. Those that he's referring to here are actually called the children of the wicked one. The children of the wicked one. He goes on to say, he was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar.
And the father of it.
Well, you say, well, how was he a murderer in the beginning?
Well, folks, there's a few things here. One, Adam and Eve would have lived forever. They would have lived forever. Had he not come with his with his lies, and had he not seduced them. When he says, "Surely thou, you shall not die," when they would have lived forever, but then that's all changed up.
They died spiritually that day, right there, and no longer would they have lived forever. And eventually, they both died after they were both evicted from the garden. But the real death came when. Here he convinced Cain to kill his own brother Abel, and so, but this battle, this this battle, this age of conflict between the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman, started all the way back, and you know, six thousand years ago, back in Genesis chapter. Three verse fifteen, what is called the Evangelium, and it's talking about how the seed of the woman, which would be the Lord Jesus Christ and us, the church, would be a constant combat, a constant odds with the seed of the serpent, which today our folks would be the seeds of the wicked one.
Actually, we. We can actually say, to a large degree, almost complete degree, the entire Democratic Communist Party, out there today, because literally, they're they're becoming more and more. Their religion is the Church of Satan. More and more every day, they have gone completely and totally corrupted. And so here now.
When we take a look at eventually, Adam and Eve repented, but there's there's always consequence to sin, and of course they had to pay the consequence. Adam had to learn how to work the garden, till the garden, the land, and with the thorns and so. And up until that time, he didn't have to do that. All he had to do was till the. Tell the plants produce your fruit.
Produce your fruit. That's all I would have had to do.
Okay, the earth would have taken care of itself. But that all changed when sin entered in. Eve, she would have had no pain in childbearing. It would have been totally painless. But that all changed when sin entered in.
And so, here. Their their repentance was, well, they kind of tried to push the blame most of it off, but they acknowledged their sin and therefore God pronounced judgment. But when it came to Cain, Cain never repented. He just said that his punishment was more than he could bear.
Now. After saying all that, I have lived through nineteen different presidential elections, and when I'm not saying nineteen different presidents, no, several of those presidents served two terms.
Okay, but I have lived through nineteen presidential elections. I have both watched and witnessed the the lying out there in these campaigns go from bad to worse to much much worse. From just exaggeration of the facts to fled out fabrication of the truth. Everything from well. Remember this.
Remember who said this. It takes a village to raise a child.
Well, folks, I asked today in a congregation in the church. I asked how many of you here were raised by a village. We didn't have one person in that congregation—not one person that was in there that was raised by a village. Every single one of them were raised by their parents. How about this one here?
I did not have sex with that woman, Ms. Malinsky.
Well, you know, Monica Helinski. What what was happening there was not exactly what it what it sounded like. It sounded like he was he was telling Monica. Or he was—it was meant to sound that he was saying he did not have sex with Monica Malinsky, but that's not what he was doing. See, Monica—they were she was being pressured and pressured to turn over on Slick and admit everything that what he was doing with her, you know, in the Oval Office, and but Monica was, you know, Slick had.
Had told Monica, Monica, you're the one, you're the one, okay. And he was actually telling, sending an esoteric message to her, in other words, saying, "Keep your mouth shut. I did not have sex with another woman," is what was what was taking place there, and a bunch of us knew that, but it went right over the heads. Of course, the Fake news media—that's what they wanted, but that was another one of the biggest, the big big liars. What about this one?
With Obamacare, you can keep the same doctor. Really? It was—it's ironic. I had somebody call this week trying to sell me on Obama. No, not this week.
Last week. On trying to sell me on Obamacare, I couldn't believe it. What about this one? Those things that survive abortion should be put on a shelf and left to die. They were never meant to live anyway.
Who was that? That was Obama, one of the most evil people. One of the most evil people out there today. What about this one here? President Trump told the January Sixers, the Patriots, to storm the Capitol, and to use violence to stop the treason of the 2020 election.
Well, in fact. Trump did just the opposite. He told him to be peaceful, to be peaceful, and that he was going to go down there too. And what happened was, the Secret Service wouldn't let him go because they couldn't, you know, provide the right security for him. and And the thing here is, that was nasty.
Pelosi, nasty Pelosi said that. That was, oh, senior moment right now, and that was the Rhino Republican, the woman whose father was the the vice president under Bush, and I'm. Having one of my moments right now, but anyhow, she was the ones coming out saying that okay, along with other Democrats, and then you had this other one that President Trump tried to hijack and take the beast, his limousine, away from Secret Service. That he reached around the door, tried to grab a hold of the steering wheel.
Well, folks, he'd have to have ten-foot-long arms from where he was sitting in the back of that to even try something like that. And the Secret Service said that was one the biggest bunch of bull. You know that nothing like that even ever came close to happening. But of course, these are all fabrications. And these are all lies, and like it says here, you are of your father the devil.
The lust of your flesh you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him. And when he speaketh the lie, he speaketh of his own, his own children, out there today, those people we just mentioned. Are the children of the wicked one, and so here I want to go over to. Oh, by the way, boy, if you want, you you want to see some flat out big time lying, these political ads that they're even both sides are actually doing it.
Both sides are running. You talk about propaganda. Oh my gosh. I don't know if I, you know, it's been bad in the past, but I don't think I've ever seen it. Even here, this is midterms.
It has really gotten bad and that nasty out there. I mean, just lying left and right. But I want to go to Proverbs chapter six. And in Proverbs chapter six, and I'll get there in a minute, Lord's willing. We read verses sixteen through nineteen.
These verse sixteen, these six things does the Lord hate? Yes, seven are abomination unto Him.
Well, that word "abomination" actually, in the Hebrew language, means that something that's that's very disgusting, something that's very repulsive, and something that God hates. That God hates. The very first time that word actually was used, was to describe the act of sodomy, homosexuality.
Well, that was to describe LGBTQ, which today those on the left they embrace this. They embrace this sodomy. In fact, in the public school system out there, they'll promote to that. I mean, we've had situations where the the children who were allowed to wear LGBTQ t-shirts, sodomy t-shirts. Or rainbow things, but those that were pro-life, or those that wore a Bible verse on their shirt, they were censored by the schools, and we went after some schools for doing that, and let them know we would not tolerate that.
And you have to do that, okay? And so he says these six things the Lord hates. We're going to see here when what you have. Is you have three of these sins are sins of the minds. Three of these sins are the sins of the tongue, and one is the sins of murder.
The sin of murder. He goes on. A proud look.
Now think about this. A proud look.
Remember when Bill Clinton stood before the cameras and he made that statement, "I did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky." Do you remember? Look the look on his face. The way he cocked his head back a little bit, kind of looked down. There was a proud look there. Believe me.
When Hillary was debating Donald Trump, and. She had a proud look and a smirk until Trump said, "Yeah, because you would be in jail." In other words, if he got elected, she would be in jail. And that that smirk was gone. And people from that time on were saying, "Put her in jail! Put her in jail!" Do you remember when Obama?
When he he made his famous statements that, I am the one that you've been waiting for. I am the one that I've been waiting for. He again, he had that proud, arrogant look upon his face. Anthony Fauci. I don't.
I hate to call him Doctor Fauci when he was being questioned here by the Senate Subcommittee. Especially by well by Ted Cruz, but even more so by the doctor from the from Kentucky, Fauci claimed a fifth. But he had he had that proud look upon his face as he continued to claim the fifth every time he was answered. And then you had, oh yeah, somebody you want to see a proud look, is Mayor Moran, Mandummy there in New York. When you talk about a proud look and a proud smirk, or what about AOC?
Sometimes her eyes are bugging out, or Bernie Sanders. You know he, he is very, very getting worse and worse, more and more contentious, out there, tonight. And Governor Hochul, from there, from New York, again. That that very proud, arrogant look that she has, and something that God hates, and He says, a proud look, a lying tongue. Whoa, every one of those that I just mentioned, and all of those four mentioned, and they are very, very well endowed with lying tongues.
I can tell you that. And so you got to throw Nancy Pelosi into that batch. And so here, and hands that shed innocent blood—that's murder. There's nothing, no one more innocent than unborn children. I mean, you can't get any more innocent than unborn children, and that's the entire death-ocratic communist party today.
God hates those people. A heart that devises wicked imaginations. Again, that applies to all of those on the left. Those that hate God love death. All of those that hate God love death.
Feet that are swift running to mischief. Same people. Those on the left. A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among the brethren.
Well, I'm going to tell. I don't know anyone. I mean, I've had false witnesses in the past. You know, I mean, they've really said some some lies about me. But I don't even come close to the things they've said about President Trump.
I mean, they've they've gone overboard on him. As far as me, they told they said that folks they actually said that when I was speaking here at a rally for a Christian patriot had been murdered. He had been murdered, and here for. Taking a stand as a righteous chaplain, and they asked me to speak on his behalf, and I did it—a big rally, a patriot rally—and there were a lot of a whole lot of militia guys there. But somebody actually went on the internet and said that while I was speaking, I actually turned myself into a lizard.
That I became one of those, and that you know, at that time there was a series on television about these lizard people that looked like regular humans, but they were actually lizards. And people actually put up on the internet that I was witnessed, that they witnessed me as I was speaking, turn into a lizard. That was one.
Some years ago, you had. Feisty Mary, who who used to sit in with me, she was a co-host with me, and you know once or twice a month, anyhow. She was on the board with all of us of Ohio Right to Life. We were all on the board together, and I as I was in a meeting in Columbus at the board meeting, I don't know there was something like forty, fifty people there. Ah.
One of the ladies come out from the office, and she come over and she whispered something into Mary's ear. Mary got up and and left. Then she comes back, and I'm still sitting there, and she says, "Where are you?" So someone comes up to you while you're sitting there and says, "Where are you?" I said, "I'm pretty sure that I'm right here, right where I'm at." Okay. She said, "No, you're not here." I said, "Well, where am I? Would you tell me?" She says, "You happened to be in Niagara Falls with me.
You, you and I, we ran off together to Niagara Falls." Well, there's a big difference between Columbus, Ohio, and Niagara Falls. I could tell you the difference in a heartbeat, right? And the opposition. There was a woman who was very angry at me because of church discipline. This woman had had gone out, and she had done some very lewd things.
And I demanded that she come in front of the church, and and ask for forgiveness and apologize. She actually, this woman actually had. Become totally drunk. Ended up going to the apartment that she lived at. Stark naked, stark and without any clothes at all.
Not no shoes or nothing. Stark naked.
Somebody dumped her off there, and she was standing there at night under the porch light, beating on the door. And stark naked, and, and drunk, and she had. Recently started attending our church, and so I had told her, you know, you had, you have brought dishonor upon first upon our Lord, and upon our congregation.
So, unless you come before the church, admit what you have done, because see this. If it had been a private thing, we would have handled it privately. But this, you know, this was out in the open now, and and and unless you do that, then we will disfellowship with you.
Well, she got angry at me, very angry at me for doing that.
So she goes and puts up on the internet that I took off, ran off with somebody else's wife. To New York, okay, or not in to Niagara. Anyhow, and so, false witness. You talk about bearing false witness. When I think about all of the false witnesses that they have bear against President Trump, I mean, where do you start?
Now, he goes on to say. A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among the brethren.
We had some people that, in the past, some I had to I had to ask to leave the church. I had to ask to leave the church because they, again. They had become very contentious. They were causing a problem, discord amongst the brethren, and I told them, you know, you can't continue to do that. And because of that, they started calling other people in the church, asking them or trying to talk them into leaving.
We had another case where.
Some people have been going to the church, and it was just unbelievable because before he left, he came and told me that that he had been the best church he'd ever been to was our church, and he had learned more there. How much he loved it, and but he he felt that the Lord was telling him he had to move on. And the next thing I know, he's calling people in the church. Trying to get them to leave the church, also, and I think he wanted to try to start a new church, and so he was causing discord among the brethren here. A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord amongst the brethren.
So all these things happening, and so I want to turn now over to. Fifty-eighth Psalm, Psalm fifty-eight, and I think I am going to have to take a break and wet my whistle here. I got this. I never had one of these before. It's a Doctor Enough, Doctor Enough.
And it's a cherry soda. It's one of these old time types of cherry sodas, and it's still fact. In fact, it's a little glass bottle, ten cents refund on this little glass bottle. I mean, this this bottle of pop must be some years old here, but boy, it is good. It tastes like.
If you ever had a maraschino cherry, that's what it tastes like. Psalm fifty-eight. This would be what you would consider one of the imprecatory psalms. Do you indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? Do you judge uprightly, O you sons of men?
Yea, in the heart you work wickedness. You weigh the violence of your mind in the earth. The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray as soon as they be born. Speaking lies. What is he talking about here?
He's speaking of the unborn, sin, infants, babies. You know, they all—all of us, all of us—were born with a sin nature from the womb. And that's an interesting thing because the very first word that infants use, learn the very first word that infants learn, is no. That's the first word. It's a word of defiance.
Now here, the difference between the children of the wicked one and the children of the Lord. The children of the wicked one. They're born once, and they die twice. The children, as we look back to Genesis 3:15, the seed of the woman. They're born twice, and they die once.
He goes on to say. In fact, before I go from there, I'm going to jump over because here it takes the new birth. It takes the experience of the new birth before one can truly learn to love God. And I want to jump over here to Colossians three for just a minute and read just a couple verses, verses nine and ten. Lie not one, lie not one to another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new man, with a new renewed in knowledge, after the image of him that created him.
And so, here, the Bible says that we're going to be conformed to be like him, to be like our Lord Jesus Christ. And here, in order to really love the Lord, to love God, we have to be like the Lord. To really love God, we have to be conformed. We have to be born again.
So it goes on. Back to Psalm fifty-eight. We read in verse four. The poison is like the poison of a serpent. They are like the deaf adder that stoppeth the ear, stoppeth her ear.
Here, that was the Egyptian cobra.
Now, the the Egyptian cobra is very, very poisonous. And if you ever seen cobras. Cobras. It's interesting because they kind of their victims. They, in a way, will kind of hypnotize.
They'll they'll raise up, and they can move from one side to the other. And the victims will watch them. They'll go with them, moving from one side to the other. And that's exactly how snake charmers. Hypnotize the cobras; they do the same thing.
They use their hands and they use the very same technique. If you've ever seen them doing that, okay. And he goes on to say, which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
So that particular type of cobra is one that's not easily charmed. Like others, not easily charmed, and goes on to say, "Break their teeth, O God, and their mouth break out to the great teeth of the young lions." This is talking about the enemies of God. He's referring to, and these other verses are also very interesting. Let them melt away as waters which run continually. When he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let him be cut in pieces.
This is what you call an imprecatory prayer.
Now, here, those that are praying against God's enemies, against their own enemies, they pray these prayers to God, but it's it's totally up to God whether or not. To answer these prayers, and someone say, "Well, that doesn't seem like a righteous thing to do." Well, like the Apostle Paul says, "Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid." If God answers those prayers and does that, that means that that was His judgment. Those people had that coming to them. God is faithful.
He will never, never judge anyone more harshly than they need to be. He'll he shows mercy. He'll never punish anyone more than they need to be punished. And so, if God answers those prayers, and often He will answer the imprecatory prayers, it's because it might just be. That it was him that laid it on the heart of those that were praying to begin with, and I know that in our situation, that we've been praying imprecatory prayers against the wicked, against those that were so evil, that they celebrated.
They celebrated being able to kill babies, right up until the time of their birth. I mean, you know, the entire New York. State legislator. I mean, these people are evil. I mean, wicked to the bone.
They they they had a party because they could kill babies. Same thing happened in Virginia, there in Massachusetts.
So we prayed and asked God that for those that hate God, love death, to to deliver. If they refuse to repent, if they refuse to deliver that death. They have met for others, back upon their own heads, and let me tell you, they didn't like that. They knew that this this God of the Christians often will answer the prayers of the Christians, and they didn't want what they met for others, upon their own heads. These are wicked people.
These Democrats are wicked, wicked, evil, evil people, plain and simple. And here, when he's talking about the next verse, he says, "As a snail, which melteth." And it's an interesting. If you've ever taken, if you've ever seen what happens when a snail, you know, it travels across certain earth minerals and that in the earth, and if there's salt in there, and some others. That'll leave a slimy trail behind him, and that's literally his body melting. His body melting.
If you take a slug and put salt on him, that salt will melt. That slug will melt into be just a pile of liquid. There. And here he's saying, as a snail which melteth. Let every one of them pass away, like the untimely birth of a woman that may not see the sun.
Now, here, when a woman nowadays nowadays, if a woman has a miscarriage, normally. You know, well, of course, the baby's going to die, but normally the women, woman, won't. Back in earlier times, in fact, when this was written, because they didn't have hospitals, emergency rooms, and all of what we have today, it wasn't a real unusual thing if a woman was to miscarry, to that both her and her child were to die, for numerous reasons. And so here, he says, the untimely birth of a woman that they may not see the sun.
So, and that's that is sun.
So that he's talking about both the mother and the child. In other words, he's saying, let the enemies of God be cut into pieces. Let them be like a snail that melts away. Let them be like those, like a woman who miscarriages and both her and the child die. In other words, he's again.
This is an expurgatory prayer upon the enemies of God, the wicked ones.
Okay.
Before your pots can feel the thorns. He shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath. The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
So that a man shall say, Verily, there is a reward for the righteous. Verily, he is a God that judges the earth, and so again. We're going back, and if God answers these prayers, okay, then they, there is no unrighteousness with God. As Paul says, "God forbid." Okay, I want to go over to James, chapter one. And again, this is the third time today I've been preaching this message, so I'm gonna take another swing at my cherry pop here, and it's a very good pop.
Hey. Mighty Andrew, are you there? Yeah, I just wanted to make sure that whatever happened, who was, did you find, catch out who who was out there? Was a friend or foe?
Well, good. I just wanted to make sure. I know that you can more than handle yourself, and I just didn't want you to. Turn whoever came there into a pile.
Well, I just didn't already. All right, so I'm glad you're okay. We have we've had interesting days there, haven't we? All righty, I'm over in James chapter one, verses twelve through fifteen or fourteen. Blessed is the man that endureth temptation, for when he is tired or tried, when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
And so here, the crown of life, we're talking about. If you if you look over to Revelation two ten, where. The persecuted overcomers are promised the crown of life, and so, in fact, there's many, many crowns that that were promised in Scripture there for those that overcome. Let no man say, when he is tempted, "I am tempted of God," for God cannot be tempted with evil. Neither he tempteth any man, and so Jesus was God and did not cease to be God when he also became a man.
And here, remember how he was, how Satan tried to tempt him in the wilderness for forty days and forty nights. And he, even though he was tempted as a man, he had to be tempted like us. He had to have the very same feelings that we have—hunger, pain, whatever—and still not give in to the temptation. And he didn't give in to the temptation. He defeated the old devil.
He goes on to say. But every man is tempted when he is drawn away from, of his own lust, and enticed, and that's what we call our sin nature that we have within us. Then, when lust is conceived, it bringeth forth sin, and when sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. And so, here again. Folks, thanks to the good Lord Jesus, for never giving in, for never giving in to temptation.
He fulfilled the law. He did for us what we could never ever do for ourselves. And he didn't come to destroy the law, but to fulfill it, and he did. And because you know he did, because he paid for our debts, that we have all of eternity to be grateful for him doing for us what we could have never ever done for ourselves. And so, I want to go back over here to First Corinthians chapter ten.
In First Corinthians chapter ten, here, starting in verse thirteen, there hath no temptation taken you, but such as is common to man. But God is faithful. Who will who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able, but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it again.
So God knows exactly when He He will test us. Always think about Job. Wow. You know what would have we have done in Job's place? I mean, Job really—he really got tested, but he never ever cursed God.
He never cursed God. Remember, the devil said, "Take away all that he has, and he'll curse you to his face," and he refused. Then he, then the Lord allowed him. To go after Job's health, and even then, when he when he put boils all over his body, and and his own wife were was begging him to curse God and die. Job didn't.
You know, Job and God not only restored Job. But he restored all that he had lost twice over. He goes on to say, "You know, as we're talking about the liberty is the gift of God that the Lord has given us. Wherefore, my my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry." I speak to a wise man and judge you. That I say now, it's interesting.
We're living in a new age today. We have a new enemy out there, in the sense of AI.
Something different, and believe me, we've we've been experiencing some of that. And here. I had a conversation with AI about the Apostle Paul, and AI said that if you if you follow the teachings of the Apostle of the Apostle Paul very closely, then you're committing idolatry. Then you're committing idolatry because you're only supposed to follow the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Well. The Apostle Paul—that's what he emphasized—the teachings that the Lord Jesus, who tutored him for three years out in the Arabian desert for three years—and the Apostle Paul was one of the greatest. Wrote more books than any of the others. One of the greatest of the apostles. Others have attacked him.
Many out there, on the left, the feminist movement refers to him as a chauvinist because of the teachings that he got. And and as he was saying, you know, these were. The teachings of what God had showed him, what God had given him to teach us. In fact, Paula White, I couldn't believe one day. I watched her as she pranced across the stage, wearing a real miniskirt, wearing those big high heels, and she had said.
I know how to use these lips, and I know how to use these hips.
Okay, or no? She said I've got lips, and I've got hips, and I know how to use these lips, and I know how, in other words, to talk, and I know how to use these hips. And I don't know what she meant by that, but just. But then she went on to say, because she was talking, and she had the Bible about the. Part where the Lord, where Paul had been preaching all night, and one of the young men had fallen asleep and fallen out of the window, and she said that Paul, the apostle Paul, couldn't have been much of a preacher.
She said, "Honey, if you can't get it done in thirty minutes, you ain't much of a preacher." Boy, you know, I'm glad that she is such a great theologian that she could judge the apostle Paul. But then she went on to say, after that, that when she speaks, she said that when you hear me speaking, you hear God talking. When you hear, or where wherever I stand, that's holy ground. Wherever I stand, now that is blasphemy, folks. That is flat out blasphemy.
I go back here to read in verse fifteen. I speak as to wise men. Judge ye what I say. This is the apostle Paul. The cup of blessings which are, which we bless, is not, is it not the communion of the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ?
The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? For we being many, are one bread, and one body; for we all are partakers of that one bread. Behold, Israel, after the flesh, are not they eat the sacrifices and partakers of the altar? What say I then? That the idol is anything, or that which is that which is offered.
In the sacrifice to idols is anything. In other words, he's making it. I'm going to have to stop right there, as I see that we're running out of time. How much time do I have, Andy?
Well, folks, I'm out of time for tonight. Thanks for being here, and again, we are living in very, very interesting times. The things that are happening now that have never happened in the past, Scripture is being fulfilled rapidly.
Okay, the the problem is, the vast vast majority of the people out there are totally clueless, and I'll probably be getting into more of that this week as I go through the Scripture. But like always, we say thanks for being here with us tonight. I hope you. Enjoyed the message, and I hope you learned some things. I want to say good night.
I want to say God bless to y'all, and then I want to say, and always, always, always, keep fighting the fight, fight, fight, fight. Thanks for listening to the voice of the Christian Resistance. What's right? What's left? Hosted by Pastor Ernie Sanders.
