The Blasphemy of the CBS show Ghosts
We were watching the show Ghosts, on CBS, on Thursday December 15th. I cannot imagine a television program trying to be any more blasphemous and anti God than this one!
As the story line goes, one of the Bed and Breakfast owner's sister came for a stay with her new boyfriend, which is fornication. Her hope was that her former boyfriend, who died in the house, and is now one of the ghosts in the house, could possess her new boyfriend so she could have sex with him one last time! Which is fornication, which God clearly states is a severe sin, 18Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sine a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
The way they tried to make the possession happen was by electrocuting the boyfriend, which wound up killing him, and turning him into a ghost. Right before this, the other owner was electrocuted, and possessed by another ghost at the house, Thor, who seems to have some ability to resurrect the dead, i.e. Jesus resurrecting Lazarus in, John 11: 1-44. He does so by resurrecting the dead boyfriend!
Also Isaac, one of the other ghosts, who is gay, is struggling with trying to kiss his boyfriend, comes to and epiphany and rushes to his gay lover and kisses him passionately! God says in His Word this is an abomination! Leviticus 18:22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. Leviticus 20:13 If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.
All of this happening during the celebration of God returning to the Earth as Savior of the world to forgive the sins of mankind, for the first time since He departed in Ezekiel Chapter 11.
I am not brow beating gays, fornicators or any other sinner, because we all are sinners in need of God's forgiveness, grace and mercy, but to do what they have done in such rebellion against God is not just sinning, but full out rebellion against God and all He stands for.
To my Christian friends, how sinful does something have to be before we are willing to stand up and say enough! What does it take for you to take a stand for Christ and say we will not watch this or tolerate this silently? We need to stand up and be heard and make known that we do not condone this radical hyper sexual agenda they are trying to shove down out throats!
We do not want to present ourselves to be angry or self righteous, but loving and share the Word of God with them, because by His Word, they will be held accountable and be judged by it, if they do not repent of their sins and surrender their life to Christ. My hope and prayer is for repentance, revival and another Great Awakening.
2 Chronichles 7:14 if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Oklahoma Topless ruling
So the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that a woman can go topless in public?
This on the heels of the #Metoo movement!
How can these two concepts exist in the same society/culture?
Answer, when a people cast off God and His Biblical morals.
We are a society that is reaping what it has sown. The book of Judges states this situation very well, it says "Jdg 21:25 WEB In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did that which was right in his own eyes."

Freedom or Autonomy?
Freedom or autonomy?
This has been something that people have struggled with for millennia.
Back in the sixties and seventies the big Freedom Movement was about that they wanted to be totally free or Born Free or Wild and Free or whatever.
It was the same thing, they didn't want freedom. Freedom is what our Founding Forefathers wanted and sought for and lay their lives on the line for.
What they wanted in the sixties and seventies in the cultural revolution as is it called, was autonomy. They wanted to be totally free of any authority, especially God's Authority and His Word which as any Christian knows, there's no such thing as total freedom without having a loving relationship with Christ and serving him daily! C.S. Lewis has an excellent quote on this "I willingly believe that the damned are, in one sense, successful, rebels to the end; that the doors of Hell are locked on the inside. I do not mean that the ghosts may not wish to come out of hell, in the vague fashion wherein an envious man "wishes" to be happy: but they certainly do not will even the first preliminary stages of that self-abandonment through which alone the soul can reach any good. They enjoy forever the horrible freedom they have demanded, and are therefore self-enslaved: just as the blessed, forever submitting to obedience, become through all eternity more and more free."
C. S. Lewis The problem of Pain.
He can say it so much better that I can but the fact of the matter is human nature is always been the same. It was what brought down Satan and those who followed him and his rebellion in Heaven. He did not want to be under the authority of God, he wanted to be God himself ! As it clearly says in Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28. Like the Rich Young Ruler who asked Christ what he must do to be saved, and then once was told, walked away from it. All of these prized something more than serving God and let Him be God in their lives.
Faith healers do the same thing. They know God, but God is not sovereign to them. They did not fear Him and prized what this world can provide more than a loving relationship with Him. Even though they know someday that they will stand for God and be held accountable for every word they speak! They, just like the demons and Satan who rebelled against God in Heaven, prize something more than their reverence and sovereignty of God.
It is one of the hardest things in the world for me to understand that people actually do this, or actually and knowingly do this. I guess that is the best way to say it, but it's just mind-blowing to me. This shows the depravity of man's heart as it says in Jeremiah 29:7 "The heart is desperately wicked and totally evil who can know it?" Indeed that is true. I will close with a quote from Ezekiel 18 why would you die man turn and live
