Judgement of Sodom

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were judged by God because of their obscenity and sexual immorality just like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and like the people of Noah’s time.  Besides Lot’s family, the people of the cities also believed in God in their own ways, but they were not as righteous as Lot.  Those believers broke the law of God, so they were destroyed together with the evil ones.  Learn and know the lives of the saved.

Lot’s wife was on the way to life but didn’t obey the law that God gave through the angels.  She was judged and died because she broke the law, didn’t she?  You can be saved only if you keep God’s law.  Those who committed sins must observe the law of repentance; then they can obtain salvation through the law of forgiveness.  If you break God’s law, even though you are walking on the path of salvation, you are destroyed together with the wicked.  It is the same for this time period also.  Therefore, it is “Repentance and salvation.”

If anyone tries to run cross onto the freeway or busy road where cars are dashing by like a leaping tiger from both directions, whether it is a human being or an ant, they will be killed by a car.  If anyone violates the law, they get arrested on the scene.  In the same way, when a person breaks God’s law, their bodies may not feel the difference, but their spirits are now lifeless, so they are sucked up into the domain of death.  At the same time, their bodies also fall into the domain of death.

The law is life.  My Word of life is the law.  My Word is life, therefore, absolutely keep it.  Repent every day.  Then your body and spirit will live in the domain of life every day.

Judgement in Noah’s time

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

About the story of Noah, in his time, there were other people besides Noah and his family who believed in God. They believed in God but didn’t observe God’s law just as Adam did not. Didn’t God call Noah, “a righteous person?” He became perfect because He lived his life, obeying the law of God. As for his contemporaries, they believed in God but they took wives as they pleased, while keeping their faith merely as a means of some comfort. Their life and faith were superficial, so they were judged and destroyed.

The same goes for this generation, too. There are people who believe in God and Me, but they love anybody they choose; they live in the way they please; they discuss with people, make decisions and carry them out. They don’t abide by My law, so they frustrate My heart and provoke Me to anger. If they don’t repent, they will be judged. They will go to the domain of death, together with nonbelievers.

In this time too, whoever doesn’t perfectly believe in God and Me, and does not act on their faith, they will be judged. If they don’t repent of their sins completely, even if they believe, they don’t have salvation. In every age and time, it was the gentiles (those who don’t believe in God and/or the Lord) who were judged and went to hell because they didn’t believe in God and Me.  As for the believers who were condemned and went to hell, they went there because they didn’t observe the laws of God and Me, and because, even though they believed, they didn’t believe absolutely.  Instead they lived their lives as they pleased, and did not repent of their sins.

Your repentance is complete only if you truly repent with tears, resist sin even crying and gnashing your teeth, and live really keeping the law of God.  You must comply with the law in order to bear the fruit of righteousness and of the Holy Spirit, and in order for Satan to be separated from you and unable to intervene in your lives.  Everyone, repent of every little sin, and sin no more!

Adam and Eve

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

Adam and Eve, the ancestors of the mankind in faith violated God’s command, ‘Do not eat from the tree in the middle of the garden.’ Having broken the law, they did not repent but hid instead. When God called Adam and Eve, they confessed that they were hiding because they were fearful and ashamed due to their nakedness. They were naked because they ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil that was in the middle of the garden, so they felt ashamed and fearful. They covered the lower parts of their bodies, using tree leaves.
When you pick and eat regular fruit, do you take off your clothes to eat it? Do you feel ashamed after eating fruit? Do you have to cover your lower body? If they had eaten it with their mouths, they had to have covered their mouths. Don’t people cover their mouths to prevent the swine flu? I hope you won’t sin and cover your lower bodies, but cover your mouths with masks so that you won’t catch the new flu. There are some individuals who have kept their lower parts covered for five, ten, or even twenty years, after committing the sexual sin. They have now confessed everything because God and Jesus are calling them.
As the Lord taught, as the Bible attests, Adam and Eve committed sexual sin. As a result, they were driven out of the Garden of Eden. They were judged for their sin.
