September 7, 2024 – Watchman River Tom – Why is Everyone Lying to You?

Verses about worship. 

Psalm 150:6. “ Let everything that has life and breath praise the Lord.” 

Habakkuk 3: 17-18 “Though the fig tree may not blossom nor fruit be on the vine and though the labor of the olive may fail and the fields yield no food. Though the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls I will rejoice in the Lord. I will joy in the God  of my salvation.” 

Tom says its hard when going through something rough and say I will joy in the God of my salvation.  That’s the best time to rejoice in Him, He will see us through.

Tom says 11 months ago today was the worst attack on Israel since WW2. And 11 months later Israel is seen as the perpetrator of crimes and the bad guy. Tom says some people even deny what happened then. Tom realizes  they listen to what the media tells them. Tom says he went to a Google search and put in Israel and read 10 headlines that came up in the last 24 hours. They call Israel “settlers” even though they became a nation. They blame Israel for everything. For starving people and the attacks. Tom says many Christians are falling away in bad theology over their rejection of the Jews, God’s nation. God’s plan of redemption and the Jewish Messiah. Shows we are in the last days, waiting for Jesus. 

Right now in the news it seems a strange calm, like birth pains.

Some contemplate using A.I. to help make end of life decisions. Pretty troublesome thought.

Gospel: Jesus loves us so much. Someone  may have gone to church and Sunday school but never really knew Jesus or believed. 

Make sure of your life being saved by faith and receiving His gift of salvation. It is very serious to make that decision as we see that time is short. Need to be rescued by believing in what He did to take alway all our sins on the cross, shedding His blood for us. Admit of being a sinner and need of a Savior.

Believe, receive and be saved. Will be born again, filled with Holy Spirit and rapture ready. 

Will be with Jesus forever in heaven with the family of God.
