O how very few ever are savingly convicted of sin by the Spirit! As the Spirit continues His work in the soul, plowing still deeper, revealing the hideousness and heinousness of sin, producing a horror of and hatred for it--He next presses upon that awakened soul, the claims of Christ's Lordship--set forth in such passages as Luke 14:26-33--and enlightens us to realize that Christ demands our hearts, lives, and all.
Then it is that He grants grace unto the quickened soul to renounce all other "lords," to turn away from all "idols", and to receive Christ as Prophet, Priest and King. And nothing but the sovereign and supernatural work of God the Spirit can bring this to pass. Surely this is self-evident.
A preacher may induce a man to believe what Scripture says about his lost and undone condition, persuade him to "bow to" the Divine verdict, and then "accept Christ as his personal Savior." No man wants to go to Hell, and if he is assured that Christ stands ready as a fire-escape, on the sole condition that he jump into His arms ("rests on His finished work"), thousands will do so!
But a hundred preachers are unable to make an unregenerate person realize the unspeakably dreadful nature of sin, make him feel that he has been a lifelong rebel against God, and so change his heart that he now hates his sin, and longs to please God, and serve Christ. Only God the Spirit can bring any man to the place where he is willing to forsake every idol, cut off a hindering right hand, or pluck out an offending right eye! Ah, a miracle of grace has been wrought when we give up ourselves to the Lord (2 Corinthians 8:5) to be ruled by Him.

Thabiti Anyabwile: the *victicrat says Obama let him down
***UPDATE***
Anyabwile is now advocating Bernie Sanders (Democrat, socialist, pro-abortionist, anti-Christ) for Black people. More here.
With other tweets like this, it seems Thabiti is angry that Obama let him down as a black man. If he did as it seems he did, then he's a traitor to Christ and all things biblical.

It's treason against the King to vote for such a heinous, God-hating, pro-abortion,
pro-sodomy, Marxist, pro-Islam, anti-Israel, godless party leader. Now, after having some great hopes of having what... a black president and some real Black justice (I hate that term but that's what he's calling for--black this black that--not general for all, but specifically for Blacks), he's angry with Obama? Besides, you can't vote
for a pro-abortionist and then be upset he endorses abortion. How irrational and unbiblical.

And I wonder how anyone can justify insurrection over
grazing but not police brutality while they say they protest government
overreach.

Scripture though, states:
Isa
30:1 "Ah, stubborn
children," declares the LORD, "who carry out a plan, but not mine,
and who make an alliance, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin;
Isa 30:2 who set out to go down to Egypt, without
asking for my direction, to take refuge in the protection of Pharaoh and to
seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!
Isa 30:3 Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh
turn to your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your humiliation.
Isa 30:4 For though his officials are at Zoan and his
envoys reach Hanes,
Isa 30:5 everyone comes to shame through a people that
cannot profit them, that brings neither help nor profit, but shame and
disgrace."
Isa
31:1 Woe to those who go down to
Egypt for help and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many
and in horsemen because they are very strong, but do not look to the Holy One
of Israel or consult the LORD!
Isa 31:2 And yet he is wise and brings disaster; he
does not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers
and against the helpers of those who work iniquity.
Isa 31:3 The Egyptians are man, and not God, and their
horses are flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD stretches out his hand, the
helper will stumble, and he who is helped will fall, and they will all perish
together.
Jeremiah 17:5,
“Thus says the Lord, ‘Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind and makes flesh
his strength and whose heart turns away from the Lord.’”
1Pe 2:18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unjust.
1Pe 2:19 For this is a gracious thing, when, mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly.
1Pe 2:20 For what credit is it if, when you sin
and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it
you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God.
This is not what
Black Liberation is about--not what Baltimore or Ferguson was about. Justice
would lawfully deal w/ facts &the actual brutal person-not take it out on
all police &the city. Emotionalism is not just.
In his new book, Don’t Make
the Black Kids Angry, Colin
Flaherty uses more than a THOUSAND examples to document the widespread black
crime and violence, often directed at white people, that has been occurring
across this nation for years. His book also shows how the media ignore, condone
and deny it – and of course, how politicians, including the president, are
willing partners in the deception.

Feminism, Abortion, and Sodomy "Marriage" Comes Down To One Thing: change people's religious beliefs
This is key. This is what Hillary called for recently. This is the HEART of feminism and sodomy rights, folks. In the US Supreme Court hearing this week on this sodomy marriage issue (I'll show Hillary's quote right after):
JUSTICE SCALIA: Miss -- Miss Bonauto,
4 I'm -- I'm concerned about the wisdom of this Court
5 imposing through the Constitution a -- a requirement of
6 action which is unpalatable to many of our citizens for
7 religious reasons. They are not likely to change their
8 view about what marriage consists of. And were -- were
9 the States to adopt it by law, they could make
10 exceptions to what -- what is required for same-sex
11 marriage, who has to honor it and so forth.
More to point, she said, “deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed” to give women full access to “reproductive health care and safe childbirth,” the news outlet said. ~ WND
This is why Christians should not compromise in any way on feminism, abortion, or sodomy. Ever.
This is a spiritual war, folks. Not mere politics or societal issues. It comes down to Satan warring against God and His Word. "Hath God said"? Many "Christians" are agreeing with Satan himself, to their own destruction and shame.

“We will not obey.” - Civil Disobedience By Religious Leaders If US Supreme Court Rules to Redefine Marriage
Isa 30:1 "Ah, stubborn children," declares the LORD, "who carry out a plan, but not mine, and who make an alliance, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin;
“We will not obey.”
That’s the blunt warning a group of prominent religious leaders is sending to the Supreme Court of the United States as they consider same-sex marriage.
“We respectfully warn the Supreme Court not to cross that line,” read a document titled, Pledge in Solidarity to Defend Marriage. “We stand united together in defense of marriage. Make no mistake about our resolve.”
“While there are many things we can endure, redefining marriage is so fundamental to the natural order and the common good that this is the line we must draw and one we cannot and will not cross,” the pledge states.
The signees are a who’s who of religious leaders including former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum, National Religious Broadcasters president Jerry Johnson, Pastor John Hagee, and Franklin Graham, president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse.
The pledge was co-drafted by Deacon Keith Fournier, a Catholic deacon, and Mat Staver, the founder of Liberty Counsel. Also involved in the document were Rick Scarborough, the president of Vision America Action and James Dobson, the founder of Family Talk Radio.
End quote.
Disobeying an anti-Bible law is justified in Scripture, but holding hands with Christ-haters to that end is spiritual harlotry and no different than obeying a wicked law.
