Many in The
Church of God in America
Have forgotten the God of the Old Testament.
They
have made their God into one of their own “image.”
To
many, He is like a Santa Claus that winks at SIN.
Many
have disassociated themselves from The Book of Revelation;
The
Revelation of Christ Jesus.
Today,
those will learn the bitter lesson of such ignorance.
They
will learn that they cannot ignore God Who never changes!
America
will learn she cannot ignore God who is Sovereign
Over
ALL of His Creation; Every nation; The Almighty. Listen:
Hear,
O heavens! Listen O earth!
For
the Lord has spoken:
'I
reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against
Me.
The
ox knows his master, the donkey his owners manger,
But
Israel [America]
does not know , My people do not understand.
Ah,
sinful nation, a people loaded with guilt, a brood of evildoers,
Children
given to corruption! They have forsaken the Lord;
They
have spurned the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on Him.
Why
should you be beaten anymore?
Why
do you persist in rebellion?
Your
whole head is injured, you whole heart afflicted.
From
the sole of your foot to the top of your head there is no soundness--
Only
wounds and welts and open sores,
Not
cleansed or bandaged or soothed with oil.
[Coming
soon to America]
Your
country is desolate, your cities burned with fire;
Your
fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you,
Laid
waste as when overthrown by strangers.
The
Daughter of Zion [America]
is left like a shelter in a vineyard,
Like
a hut in a filed of melons, like a city under siege.
Unless
the Lord Almighty had left us some survivors,
We
would have become like Sodom we would have been like Gomorrah.
Hear
the Word of the Lord you RULERS of Sodom [America];
Listen
to the Law of our God, you people of Gomorrah [America]!
'The
multitude of your sacrifices—what are they to Me?' says the
Lord.
'I
have more than enough of burnt offerings,
Of
rams and the fat of fattened animals;
I
have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats.
When
you appear before Me who has asked this of you,
This
trampling of My Courts?
Stop
bringing meaningless offerings!
Your
incense is detestable to Me.
New
Moons, Sabbaths and convocations--
I
cannot bear your evil assemblies.
Your
New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts My soul hates.
They
have become a burden to Me; I AM weary of bearing them.
When
you spread out your hands in prayer, I will hide My eyes from you;
Even
if you offer many prayers, I will not listen.
Your
hands are full of blood; wash and make yourselves clean.
Stop
doing wrong, learn to do right!
Seek
justice, encourage the oppressed.
Defend
the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.
'Come
now, let us reason together,' says the Lord.
Though
your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
Though
they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.
If
you are WILLING and OBEDIENT, you will eat the best from the
land;
But
if you RESIST and REBEL, you will be devoured by the sword.
For
the mouth of the Lord has spoken.
See
how the faithful city has become a harlot! [Every
city in America.]
She
once was full of justice, righteousness used to dwell in her--
But
now murderers!
Your
silver has become dross, your choice wine diluted with water.
Your
RULERS are REBELS, companions of thieves;
They
all love bribes and chase after gifts.
They
do not defend the cause of the fatherless;
The
widow's case does not come before them.
Therefore
the Lord, the Lord Almighty, the Mighty One of Israel, declares:
'Ah,
I will get relief from My foes and avenge Myself on My enemies.
I
will turn My hand against you [America];
I
will thoroughly purge away your dross and remove all your impurities.
I
will restore you judges as in days of old,
Your
counselors as at the beginning.
Afterward
you will be called The City of Righteousness, The Faithful City.'
Zion
will be redeemed with justice, her PENITENT ONES with
righteousness.
But
REBELS and SINNERS will both be broken,
And
those who forsake the Lord will perish.
You
will be ashamed because of the sacred oaks [America's
many Idols]
In
which you have delighted;
You
will be disgraced because of the gardens that you have chosen.
[Gardens,
being those things America has placed above God.]
You
will be like an oak with fading leaves, like a garden without water.
The
mighty man will become tinder and his work a spark;
Both
will burn together, with no one to quench the fire.' (Isaiah 1)
Today,
the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
America
is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom
come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
