Scripture Reading: Ephesians 2:11-12
Dispensationalism is a very popular and widespread way of studying the Bible. But it only originated in the late 1500s with the pen of one of the Catholic Jesuits. It was picked up two-and-a-half centuries later in the teachings of John Nelson Darby of the Plymouth Brethren in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Then the doctrine was spread through the channels of:

SCRIPTURE READING: Ezekiel 14:13-14
If anyone believes that a nation is not held accountable for its corporate sin, let this passage of Scripture set him straight. A nation does sin, and that nation pays for the sin it commits. We really have not seen, as yet, the retribution God will place upon America for its disobedience. But there are many signs: extreme weather, cyber threats and hints of nuclear war.
The background to Ezekiel’s prophetic ministry is Judah’s apostasy following the death of the last good king, Josiah, in 609 B.C. From that time on Judah’s kings seemed to go out of their way to avoid righteousness, and the kingdom rapidly declined. Sounds like the present national administration in America, 2023, does it not?

Scripture Reading: Romans 1:16
The questions are: who is the “Jew” and who is the “Greek” mentioned in this verse of Scripture? There are several possibilities that interpreters of the Bible have come up with:
The Bible can only be understood if the Holy Spirit reveals the correct interpretation to His chosen people. Without the Holy Spirit, you can get all kinds of different views and ministries based on the Bible. You can find almost any church that has the beliefs that any person may hold, no matter how much they are filled with heresies or weak doctrine.

Scripture Reading: 1 Chronicles 21:13, 17
Does the way The Scriptures present David as a man of God “after His own heart” indicate to us The Author expects us to know what was in David’s heart? Does anyone get the sense God expects us to know what was in David’s heart from The Scriptures we have shared?
Classmates: we covered part Two of this evidence [Jan. 1]. Part One was [Nov. 20]. After Part One Pastor Don said something that stuck with me. David’s calling before he was anointed by Samuel was Shepherd. The God of Israel is the Good Shepherd in Jesus Christ our LORD! Both Jesus and David are Shepherds in Israel!!!

SCRIPTURE READING: Lamentations 1:8, 10, 12
Will America be replaced by non-Adamic peoples? It’s happening! We in America have rejected God’s commands just as Jerusalem did in Jeremiah’s day. America is fast becoming no longer the land of the covenant people, but rather the land of the heathen people.
The book of Jeremiah (as well as Lamentations) comes from one of the great prophets of the Old Testament. Sometimes known as the “weeping prophet,” he lived to witness the fall of Jerusalem and the Babylonian captivity. The book has outpourings of rage against sin and deep agony of soul; descriptions of personal and national crises, and beautiful affirmations of hope and deliverance. He was faithful to God, but the revival of his people’s faith did not come in his day. Instead, after forty years of ministry, he saw the people slaughtered and the Holy City destroyed. Much of his sorrow is expressed in the book of Lamentations.
In the modern American Republican/Conservative/Christian mentality, Abraham Lincoln has been elevated to a ‘Christ-like’ status, when in all actuality, Lincoln and his administration opened the floodgates of political tyranny and socialist policies that has morphed themselves into mature Marxism and governmental corruption that we are living with today.

Scripture Reading Matthew 7:22-23
“Beware of false prophets” (Matthew 7:15a) is the warning that Jesus Christ gave to His covenant people. The false prophets are ravening wolves dressed up as sheep. Jesus tells His people that the false prophets will:
Does anyone here know any false prophets? Does anyone here know of any preacher who casts out demons in the name of Jesus the Christ? My conclusion is that there are significant more false preachers in our land than real preachers!
Matthew 7:28: “And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at His doctrine.”
Dispensationalism started in the 1800s. It changed Christendom. It has brought to the forefront many false preachers who cast out demons.
Part 1: A list of false preachers and the history behind a couple of them.
Part 2: What is so dangerous about dispensationalism? What has happened to the average church in America in the last 200 years? It has been integrated. Dispensationalism equates the Jews with the rest of the world.
Part 3: Many of today's churches have as their basis of their end times beliefs, the teaching of the Catholic Jesuits. The secret rapture of the church (which church?), the seven years of tribulation, the mass conversion of the Jews (which Jews), the second coming of Jesus Christ, the millennial kingdom, the two marriages, etc. was all started by a Catholic Jesuit, Francisco Ribera. The biggest error of dispensationalism is that it nullifies the wicked seed line--the eternal enemy of Jesus Christ and His followers.
Part 4: In the teaching of dispensationalism, there are two future weddings. One with the church and Jesus the Son during the seven year Tribulation and one, a remarriage, of the Jews and the Father. What is wrong with this teaching?
Part 5: Can the Jew ever be converted in the past? Can the Jew ever be converted in the present? Can the Jew ever be converted in the future? If the Jew has never and will never be converted, then dispensationalism is totally in error.
Part 6: Dispensationalism is only a little more than 100 years old in Christendom, but was written about 500 years ago by a Jewish Jesuit. They have everything after chapter three in the book of Revelation in the future. The end of this age will be followed by the rapture of the church, then comes the seven years of tribulation on the Jews, then come the bodily return of Jesus Christ with His church members, who join up with the Jews, many of whom had be martyred to rule in the 1000-year kingdom of God. What is wrong with this? This is what the sermon is about.
Part 7: Do you have any idea why residents of this city want the man that it is name for to have his statues torn down and the name of their city change to something else? You may be surprised who it is. This is one of the main parts of this sermon.\
Part 8: What started World War I? What did Germany have to do with this? Why were there seven new countries formed after the War? Was it all over a shot future king and queen of Austria-Hungary?
Part 9: The Jews tell us that Communism is Judaism, so why is it antisemitism to criticize the Jews. They believe not Jesus, because they are not of His sheep. They are wolves.
Part 10: What is a Revival? Part 1 Were America's revivals good revivals or were they bad? Did they make America better or worse?
Part 11: What is a Revival? Part 2 Were there Americans who knew who the enemy of our God and people were? This sermon gives a few of them and what happened to them.

SCRIPTURE READING: Proverbs 8:10-11
In this sermon we will be covering the writings of Solomon as they have to do with racial intimations. Solomon was known for his wisdom, but it appears he did not always follow his own advice, but rather succumbed to temptation. Perhaps some of his failures led to his great wisdom, while at the same time and in due time, God inspired him in answer to his own prayer.
A bit of historical background: Solomon’s reign was the “golden age” of Israel. The magnificence and splendor of Solomon's court were unrivaled. He had seven hundred wives and three hundred concubines, an evidence at once of his pride, his wealth, and his sensuality. The maintenance of his household involved immense expenditure.
Solomon's reign was not only a period of great material prosperity, but was equally remarkable for its intellectual activity. He was the leader of his people also in this uprising amongst them of new intellectual life. He spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.
