I wanted to dive into Ezekiel 16 where it specifically lists the reasons for Sodom's downfall. We can see a parallel between these and many of empires in world history that has be torn apart by greed, lusts, political division, and ungodliness. Is there a correlation between these findings and America? Unfortunately, yes. I also look at a few more places in scripture that give very specific examples of two major issues that the Lord has with His people: sexual sin and child sacrifice.

I also talk a bit about the cultural Christianity belief that God is love and He doesn't send people to hell. There's a lot more exploration we can do outside of this episode, but I do look into God's character with these passages as well. Because He is just and holy, sin MUST be dealt with. So yes, Jesus is love, but His love sanctifies us and changes us in HIS image. If there's no evidence of that in your life, then you're not following the Jesus of the Bible.

So many nuggets in this one that can definitely get their own episode!

Cultural Christianity is a very dangerous place. It mixes a lot (or a little) of the truth with just a tiny twist of the spirit of the age. I made a list of six red flags to look for when trying to find a church to call home or even when you meet someone that talks about Jesus. Because it may not be the right one.

• Denies the diety of Christ
• Mixes creationism with evolution
• Doesn't use all scripture for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction
• Promotes New Ageism
• Promotes feelings over facts
• Doesn't teach repentance, but that you can come to Jesus as you are and stay that way

I used a lot of references today and I have a lot more I could've thrown in there. If you want my list, especially about who the Bible says Jesus is, just message me!

There's a lot of craziness going on right now in the world. I think a lot of us can just feel the heaviness that brings. With that heaviness brings anxiety. We worry about our children (even if they haven't been born yet) in this world that abounds with evil and rapidly declining morals.

It's still our Father's world. He's still on the throne. And we have access to one thing that this world doesn't have...peace. Perfect peace.
