@shipwreckshow Proverbs 19:1
"Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity
Than he who is perverse in speech and is a fool."
Having integrity matters more than great wealth; good job with your show, keep it up and sharing truth.
1 John 4:1-6
"Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error."
Matthew 7:15-20
A Tree and Its Fruit
“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. So then, you will know them by their fruits.
Galatians 1:6-10
Perversion of the Gospel
"I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting Him who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different gospel; which is really not another; only there are some who are disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed! As we have said before, so I say again now, if any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed!
For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ."
1 John 2:22-24 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.
@WallStreetApes Hebrews 13:4 "Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge."
The government has lied to the people for so long. They should really read the bible to see what they are doing is wrong.
Proverbs 12:19-22
"Truthful lips will be established forever,
But a lying tongue is only for a moment.
Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
But counselors of peace have joy.
No harm befalls the righteous,
But the wicked are filled with trouble.
Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD,
But those who deal faithfully are His delight."
It's pretty despicable seeing this play out. There are numerous warnings in Proverbs (and many other places in the Bible) about kings/governments not upholding justice, it never ends well with them. The government is established to uphold justice and punish the wicked.
Proverbs 20:26
“A wise king scatters the wicked, and drives a threshing wheel over them.”
Proverbs 17:15
“He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord.”
Proverbs 25:5
“Take away the wicked from the presence of the king, and his throne will be established in righteousness.”
He won't escape.
Revelation 20:11-15
"Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."
@RepFriedmanCA Romans 1:18
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,"
I feel really sad for people like this. They are in high positions of power, but like the kings of old, they all face death (old age) too and can't escape blinded by pride. Will they trust in the works of their hands or trust in the work of the Lord Jesus, as Jesus is the only way; not some made up religious system that teaches bondage and work really hard you you might make it. And worse, they get so offended when the truth is spoken to them. He really needs to read the whole book of Galatians and believe, otherwise enjoy your riches and position now in this life, the next life won't be so good (fire) and will last forever.
