There is no Law of God that you can ignore and reject!

Greetings, everyone! Welcome to Sabbath services!
How are you enjoying the 'shelter in place'? It's doing a lot of other things. The only benefit seems to be is that you don't have to be around people you don't want to be around, and the other one is crime is down everywhere by 20-37%! At least that's a benefit.
But everything else is going to 'that place of ever-burning theology fire in a hand-basket'! Why? In particularly, let's look at America. How does God look at America and all the things that are going on?
Let's look at two important things that tell you why it's coming:
- This is probably a very powerful first warning; not only for us in America, but all nations of the world!
- Who would have thought that the breaking of the unclean and clean laws of God would be the source of this worldwide pandemic? A bat!
They did a little special on bats and revealed that bats can contain up to 100 different viruses in their system. The Chinese look upon that as a delicacy!
One of the greater delicacies is that you go to a restaurant where they serve reptiles. The waiter comes out and comes out and opens up a bag and the customer looks in there and picks out the snake that they want for dinner; it's living in the bag! The waiter takes it back to the kitchen and prepares dinner of them!
Why do I bring this up? Very simple! There is no Law of God that you can ignore and reject!
Everything from the Old Testament that needed to be updated to the New Testament, God did the changing. Nowhere in there did He do away with the clean and unclean meats!
- Did He do away with the Sabbath and Holy Days?
- Did He do away with loving God and loving your neighbor?
There were two things, two short things on television:
- Franklin Graham: He runs Samaritan's Purse. It looks like they have a pretty big purse! He said that all you need to do is come to Jesus and say—time this—'Jesus, forgive my sins, enter into my heart and now you're on the road to eternal life.' (12 seconds)
That's what people want. They want a 12-second God so they can't be bothered!
- The My Pillow man—Mike Lindell: He was asked to give a presentation on what his company is doing. He's had his whole company switched over to doing masks and other things. He said that it's time to get back to God! It's time to get back while you're in your shelter in place. It's time to open your Bibles and read it and find out what God has to say.
That's a paraphrase, so don't take every word that I said as literally what he said, but that's the substance of what he did say. So, his was a better start!
However, no one is telling them to repent of their sins, and telling them what sin is!
I was going through different channels and I turned on Day Star and there was a man who was pleading and showing what a great work that he has in feeding starving children in Africa. That's a big work, which is something that is doing some good. But he said something very interesting: 'There is coming a great coming together of all people'—and he means religions and the pope is saying the same thing.
Aren't they all going to be surprised when they think that God is going to reward them for something really special that they did because of 'great works' and have lots of money.
They will say: 'Lord, Lord, look at what we've done. Look at the millions of people that we've had. Look at the buildings that we have, the colleges that we have. Look at all the people that are following us.'
Christ will say, 'Depart from Me you workers of lawlessness! I never knew you!'
Why? Because it's a fake Jesus and a fake salvation! Some come a little closer, but they never really tell you what the sins are by going right through the Ten Commandments and telling people what they need to repent of.
It would be a perfect time while we're in the 'shelter at home' and can't go anywhere. So, I'm going to do the unthinkable today: I'm going to tell all of them, everywhere, whoever anyone is that:
GOD SAYS, 'REPENT AND YOUR SINS ARE BREAKING THE TEN COMMANDMMENTS and all of these sanctimonious religious leaders are universally breaking the fourth commandment, the second commandment and rejecting all the Holy Days of God for all the paganized stuff that they have! This is why we are where we are now, with the problems and difficulties that we have!
I DARE any of you leading evangelists in the world to call all your people to repentance! To start keeping the seventh-day Sabbath, the day that God sanctified and made Holy, the day that He said in the Ten Commandments to REMEMBER! Which you forget! In all your sanctimoniousness you think that you're so holy and righteous that you can tell God:
We'll throw away Your Sabbath, the Day You created to fellowship with mankind on and we're going to do it on Sunday!
Can any man tell God what to do?
I recommend that every leader of every Protestant Church, every Catholic Church, whatever, even Churches of God, makes no difference: read and study the book of Job on your knees! Not a single one of you were as righteous as Job in the letter of the Law, but he made the same fatal mistake that you make: He thought that he was good enough to tell God what to do!
He demanded that God speak to him! Well, God did! And Job repented! Because all the good works you do, while you break the laws and commandments of God and sanctify the abominations that God says, 'DON'T DO!' you have nothing to do with God! You are the blind leaders of the blind! Exactly as Jesus told the leaders in Jerusalem before He was crucified!
I know that someone is going to say, 'Whoa! He's really attacking!' Well, I suggest you read Matt. 23 where the leaders with the temple—with the Law and commandments of God—rejected God and had their own traditions!
Then the Jews rejected Jesus Christ. If there are any Jews listening/reading that's what you need to repent of, because in the near future there will be more judgments from God! Let's see why, because those who are responsible are:
- the religious leaders
- all the political leaders
Jeremiah 6:8: "O Jerusalem, take warning…"
Jerusalem is a type of all the 12 tribes of Israel. For the knowledge and understanding of those who belong to Judaism, you are one tribe with part of Levi and Aaron and part of Benjamin. The rest of the 12 tribes are great nations that support you and keep you.
Note our book: American and Britain in Prophecy! It's important to know because these words apply not only to the 12 tribes, but to every single nation in the world! That's why we have this Coronavirus around the world! It started from a little virus, so you think you can tell God what to do?
Read all the plagues that God brought upon Egypt to take the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. Ask yourself: Are you willing to try and stand against this and shake your fist at God?
All you atheists out there, you're the most foolish, ignorant people in the world!
"…take warning lest My soul depart from you; lest I make you desolate, a land without people" (v 8).
Did God do that? Yes! Twice! The sacred Temple of God was so defiled and so filled with sin twice in history—539B.C. and 70A.D.—God did exactly what He told Solomon when Solomon gave His great prayer at the dedication of the first temple. He said, 'IF My people depart from Me, I will destroy this whole thing!'
- Did God do it? Yes!
- What do you think He's going to do just before the return of Jesus Christ?
- Do you know how to read the Bible?
Do like Mike Lindell said and read it! Read Matt. 24! We're going to look at the cause of why it's coming!
Verse 10: "To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear?…."
Who is going to hear? One little ole 'stupid' man in little ole city of Hollister, reading from the Bible, tells the leaders of the world's nations to REPENT!
Who does he think he is? Nothing!
But the Word of God is everything, and it's going to judge every single one! NO ONE is going to escape the judgment of God anywhere on the face of the earth!
If you think this Coronavirus is difficult, if you live long enough you're going to see that these were 'the good ole days'!
"…Behold, their ears are not circumcised…" (v 10).
How are you going to know if your ears are uncircumcised? By saying, 'Look at that 'stupid' little man out there ranting and raving'? If I read the Words of God to you, and you do not believe what God says, His Words! I'm just the reader! He had it written and preserved for the very times that we're living in right now, and to use the example of history for what God does when people give themselves wholly over to sin!
Do you think we have sins here? We'll look at some of them in just a minute. But let's just start with:
- Sabbath breaking
- idol making
- adultery
- lying
- cheating
- stealing
- drugs
How is that for a start?
"…and they cannot hearken. Behold, the Word of the LORD is to them a reproach…" (v 10). Yes, you may dismiss it with:
- the Old Testament is all fulfilled, you don't have to worry about that
- today you can eat any of the unclean foods because we have refrigeration
How did the bat virus start?
"…they have no delight in it" (v 10).
This you don't want to even come close to; you need to pay attention, because when God gets angry, when God decides that He has had His fill with sin, and people coming to Him, flattering Him, telling Him what 'good' things they do, and all the crime and all the things that go on, listen:
Verse 11: "Therefore, I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in; pour it out on the children in the street, and on the assembly of young men together. For even the husband with the wife shall be taken as well as the aged with fullness of days."
What happened? They were all led off to Babylon! They were the lucky ones. The ones who stayed to fight, Nebuchadnezzar and his soldiers destroyed and burned!
Verse 12: "'And their houses shall be turned over to others, together with their fields and wives; for I will stretch out My hand on the inhabitants of the land,' says the LORD. 'For everyone from the least of them even to the greatest of them is greedy for gain…'" (vs 12-13).
Yes, even when they were looking for hydroxychloroquine to be made to help these poor people with this Coronavirus, the drug companies didn't want to make them because they wouldn't make any money because it's so cheap. Think about it!
Then companies sending overseas the things that are needed here for those who are suffering, because they would be paid cash at higher price? "…greedy for gain…'"
"…and from the prophet even unto the priest everyone deals falsely" (v 13).
They even now know that the pattern that they used to tell us that we have to shut down for months and months was faulty!
Verse 14: "They have also healed the hurt of the daughter of My people slightly, saying, 'Peace, peace,' when there is no peace. Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?…." (vs 14-15).
- adultery
- perversion
- lying
- cheating
- stealing
- pedophilia
No! We have to make it legal so there won't be any lawbreaking!
"'…No, they were not at all ashamed, nor could they blush; therefore, they shall fall among those who fall. At the time that I punish them, they shall be cast down,' says the LORD" (v 15).
I want you to understand one thing, this message is to give you a warning that you turn to God lest you fall into His hand and are punished directly by Himthrough the agents and the people and the enemy that He will send!!
Now, this is what we are to do; any true minister of God is to do today:
Verse 16: "Thus says the LORD, 'Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths where the good way is and walk in it…'"
- People don't want to keep the commandments of God
- People don't want to love God
They love their own selves, their own projects and what they do, rather than loving God and each other! Some people are trying to show love to other people; thank goodness for that! But these are very desperate times!
"…and you shall find rest for your souls. But they said, 'We will not walk in it.'" (v 16).
Do you want everything to come down to a calmer level of existence? Stop breaking the commandments of God and start keeping them! That's what God says!
But what did the Jews say back then? We will not walk in it!
Verse 17: "Also, I set watchmen over you, saying, 'Hearken to the sound of the ram's horn.' But they said, 'We will not hearken.' Therefore, hear, you nations, and know, O congregation… [the scattered people of God, so listen up, this is what God says] …what will happen to them? Hear, O earth…" (vs 17-19).
Is this a pandemic, a worldwide thing around the earth? And this is just one little thing!
"…behold, I will bring evil on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts…" (v 19).
- What are your thoughts?
- Do you know what the mind of most people is? Just as the Bible says that is! Evil, deceitful and desperately wicked!
- Do you want a little test? Take a little test! I challenge you:
Take a sheet of paper and write down how many lies you believe, and then how many lies you just told yourself while you're making the list! They're all in the mind! Then how many lies your pastors, politicians and teachers tell you.
- What do you think?
- Are up to that?
- Do you think you could do that?
"…the fruit of their thoughts…" Look at all the movies, what is the fruit of all the thoughts of those who design those things? Straight from the cauldron of Satan the devil, of death and destruction! That's what's coming unless you turn around and come to God with all your heart!
- no faking
- no cheating
- no halfway
All the way!
"…because they have not hearkened to My words, nor to My Law…" (v 19). Quite an indictment!
- Who is the Lawgiver?
- How do you like it, all of you who live in communities where they're releasing dangerous criminals right into your cities so they won't get the Coronavirus?
- Already committing crimes?
- Isn't that lovely?
- Why? Because the politicians won't listen, and those who are evil are dedicated to destroying other people through these means!
The only thing that's going to change begins with you coming to God! And God is as close to you as your knees are to the floor!
"…but have rejected it" (v 19). That's something! How many of God's Laws do you reject?
Let me tell you the greatest Law, and Jesus said that it was the greatest, and ask yourself… Now, a lot of people want the love of God for themselves because they're selfish. They want their sins forgiven, because they want to save their skin! That is true, but what is the first commandment that staves off how much sin, agony and trouble?
- Do you know what it is?
- Have you ever heard it?
It's a fulltime occupation!
The first of all the commandments is: Hear O Israel (put your name there) because the Word of God is for the whole world! That's why it's around the world in so many different languages. There are more Bibles than any other book in the whole history of the earth. Why? Because God has it there as a witness to everyone! If you don't read it, that's not God's fault! You got it, and however you got it!
What are you going to do? You have a perfect time because you have to stay in your home! You can go to our other website: churchathome.org There you will find every detail you need to know to find out and get your life squared around with God.
Verse 21: "Therefore, thus says the LORD, 'Behold, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbor and his friend shall perish.' Thus says the LORD, 'Behold, a people comes from the north country…'" (vs 21-22)—Babylon back then!
- Who is going to be coming now?
- Who may it be?
The battle right now is going on!
- Who is going to seize the power?
A lot will depend upon what the people in America do; what the leaders, preachers, pastors and teachers will do.
"…and a great nation shall be raised from the ends of the earth"…. [God is going to do that] …They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel and have no mercy; their voice roars like the sea; and they ride on horses… [today it will tanks, planes and things like that] …arrayed in battle order like men for war against you, O daughter of Zion" (vs 23-24). Shows what's going to happen!
Here's why, and remember that Jeremiah gave this warning for 40 years. God gave them a lot of time, didn't He? Did they listen? No, they did not! While the temple was still standing, God told Jeremiah because he was a priest:
Jeremiah 7:2: "Stand in the gate of the LORD'S house…"—right there where everyone can see you!
I imagine that there are people going in there and saying, 'Oh, there's that Jeremiah again. Can't we get away from him?'
Do you know what they did to the Temple of God? They put in idols and booze for homosexual 'religious' acts! How bad was it? Really bad! They did not love God with all their heart, mind, soul and being, and that, by the way, is the first and greatest commandment. That's fulltime occupation!
They were 'religious' and came to the temple. They had their own lives and did their own way.
"…and proclaim there this Word, and say, 'Hear the Word of the LORD, all Judah… [and today, all nations of the earth] …who enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.' Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, 'Amend your ways…'" (vs 2-3)—repentance!
- stop what you're doing and go the right way
- stop your sinning and start obeying
- stop your hatred and wickedness and start loving God
"…and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place" (v 3).
God is saying that He'll put it off for another generation IF you do well. Think about that! God's timetable is always flexible and honors repentance!
Verse 4: "Do not trust in lying words, saying, 'The temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD are these.'"
They said that if it's in the Temple of God it's perfectly all right! Today we say that 'we're the people of God, USA! USA! USA!' When there's trouble we flock back to the churches and synagogues, for three weeks and do nothing about all the sins and problems that come along!
Here's what God says that needs to be done; are you willing to do this?
Verse 5: For if… [condition] …you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if you thoroughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbor; if you do not oppress the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not shed innocent blood…" (vs 5-6)—burning the children in 'religious' sacrifice to Molech; today that's called abortion!
- the abortion clinic is the Temple of Molech
- the abortion table is the altar
- the attendants are those who assist
- the doctor is the high priest of murder
"…in this place, nor walk after other gods to your hurt" (v 6). That's what God says!
Verse 7: "Then I will cause you to dwell in this place… [God will change His judgment] …in the land that I gave to your fathers, forever and ever."
God gave us this great land from sea to shining sea; one of the greatest lands and nations in the whole history of the world, because of God! Since He gave it, prospered it and created it, unless there's repentance and turning to God, HE WILL TAKE AWAY!
Verse 8: "Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit. Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom you do not know; and then come and stand before Me in this house which is called by My name…" (vs 8-10).
That's the same thing we do today in this nation; we're God's people! But look at us!
"'…and say, "We are delivered to do all these abominations"? Has this house, which is called by My name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it,' says the LORD" (vs 10-11). Then He says He wants them to learn a lesson!
Go to Shiloh where God first setup the tabernacle, and because of the sins of the people, the priests and the leaders, God scraped if off the face of the earth! That's what's going to happen to this nation unless there is mass repentance, beginning with the Supreme Court, the Presidency… President Trump is trying do things and repent of things, and do good things for the nation, but they hate him for it! He far from a perfect man, but at least he is trying!
I want you to understand one thing; here's what God told Jeremiah, 'I will hold back My hand for everything that I'm pronouncing IF you can find one man!
Jeremiah 5:1: "Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in her open places, if you can find a man…"—one man! Think about what God will do] …if there is one who does justice, who seeks the Truth; and I will pardon her."
Then all of those in the Cabinet and Congress, all of those with the lying, cheating, evil things you want to bring upon the American people, because you sit in the seat of power. Then all the governors and legislators, all the pastors, priests and ministers. That's what has to happen!
This Coronavirus is only a little foretaste of many terrible things to come!
As one person told me, when you look at America: What is there to say? These are desperate times!
I know that there are people who will say, 'You shouldn't ever speak that way.' But if I read the words of God, and the words of God always apply to all people everywhere, all the time, your debate and argument is not with me and my presentation! It's with God! What will you do?
We have many things at:
- truthofGod.org
- churchathome.org
We have:
- books
- booklets
- Bibles
Everything that you need so that you can find out how to get your life squared around. You can start with the book, Lord, What Should I Do?
That's what has to happen! This is where we are! We'll see that and all of us have choices to make and now is the time to make them!
