What Was Life Really Like In Sodom And Gomorrah?

 

 

 

 

 A look back in time at two of the most wicked cities mentioned in the Bible.
What was life like in these places?  What comparisons can be made between
Sodom and Gomorrah and the United States of America today?

Praise the LORD, O My Soul

 

 

 

 There is a touch of fall in the air this morning, this last Sunday of August, 
 enough to give my overworked air conditioner a needed break!  
Praise the LORD, O my soul!

PSALM 146 

 

Hallelujah!   Praise the LORD, O my soul.

I will praise the LORD all my life.

I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

Put not your trust in princes,

in mortal man, who cannot save. 

When his spirit departs, he returns to the ground;

on that very day his plans perish.

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, 

whose hope is in the LORD his God,

the Maker of heaven and earth,

the sea, and everything in them. 

He remains faithful forever.

He executes justice for the oppressed

and gives food to the hungry. 

The LORD sets the prisoners free,

the LORD opens the eyes of the blind,

the LORD lifts those who are weighed down,

the LORD loves the righteous.

The LORD protects foreigners;

He sustains the fatherless and the widow, 

but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.

The LORD reigns forever,

your God, O Zion,  for all generations. 

 

 

If it is our delight to praise the Lord while we live, we shall certainly praise Him to
 all eternity.  With this glorious prospect before us, how low do worldly pursuits seem!
There is a Son of Man in whom there is help, even Him who is also the Son of God, who
will not fail those who trust in Him.  But the other sons of men are like the man from whom
they sprung, who, being in honor, did not abide. 

God has given the earth to the children of men, but there is great striving about it.  Yet, after a
while, no part of the earth will be their own, except that in which their dead bodies are laid. And,
when man returns to his earth, in that very day, all his plans and designs vanish and are gone;
what then comes of expectations from him? 

The psalmist encourages us to put confidence in God.  We must hope in the providence of God
for all we need as to this life, and in the grace of God for that which is to come. The God of heaven
became a man that He might become our salvation.  Though He died on the cross for our sins, and
was laid in the grave, yet, His thoughts of love to us did not perish; He rose again to fulfill them. 
When on earth, His miracles were examples of what He is still doing every day.

He grants deliverance to captives bound in the chains of sin and Satan.  He opens the eyes of 
the understanding.  He feeds with the bread of life those who hunger for salvation; and He is
the constant Friend of the poor in spirit, the helpless; with Him poor sinners, that are fatherless,
find mercy; and His kingdom shall continue forever. Then let sinners flee to Him, and believers
rejoice in Him. As the Lord shall reign forever, let us stir up each other to praise His holy name.

-Matthew Henry's Commentary

Saturday Poetry Corner: In The Garden

 

 

 

 

One moment alone in the garden

Under the August skies;

The moon had gone but the stars shone on,

Shone like your beautiful eyes.

Away from the glitter and gaslight,

Alone in the garden there,

While the mirth of the throng, in laugh and song,

Floated out on the air. 

 

 

Image courtesy/Freepik


 

You looked down through the starlight,

And I looked up at you;

And a feeling came that I could not name,

Something strange and new.

Friends of a few weeks only,

Why should it give me pain,

To know you would go in the morrow,

And would not come again? 


Formal friends of a season.

What matter that we must part?

But under the skies, with a swift surprise,

Each read the other's heart.

We did not speak, but your breath on my cheek

Was like a breeze of the south:

And your dark hair brushed my forehead

And your kiss fell on my mouth. 

 

Some one was searching for me,

Some one to say good-night;

And we went in from the garden,

Out of the sweet starlight,

Back to the glitter and music,

And we said, "Good-bye" in the hall,

When a dozen heard and echoed the word,

And then-well, that was all. 

 

The river that rolls between us

Can never be crossed, I know,

For the waters are deep and the shores are steep, 

And a maelstrom whirls below,

But I think we shall always remember,

Though we both may strive to forget,

How you looked in my eyes 'neath the August skies,

After the moon had set; 

How you kissed my lips in the garden,

And we stood in a trance of bliss, 

And our hearts seemed speaking together

In that one thrilling kiss.

Flashback Friday: Chances Are

 

 

 

 

 Released in August, 1957 legendary romantic crooner Johnny Mathis was
initially skeptical about recording the song, "Chances Are"-until he heard it!  
This classic slow dance song spent 28 weeks on Billboard Magazine's 
 Top 100 record chart and was one of the most requested songs
 played on radio stations from coast to coast that year!

Glad you decided to listen, Johnny! 

No one sings this beautiful song better than you!

Friday Focus: Sow The Wind, Reap The Whirlwind!

 

 

"For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.  There is no
standing grain; what sprouts up fails to yield flour. Even if it should
produce, the foreigners would swallow it up." 
(Hosea 8:7)

 

In the aftermath of the horrific shooting in Minneapolis this week, my heart 
and prayers are with the victims' families.  I cannot begin to imagine the
overwhelming sorrow and pain they are suffering in the loss of their beloved
children. My heart and prayers are also with the mother of the shooter. 
 May she receive care and comfort and not blame for her son's actions.

 This terrible tragedy reminds me of another incident involving a shooting
at a school in 2006, when a gunman took hostages inside a one room schoolhouse
in the Old Order Amish community of Nickel Mines, Pennsylvania.

The suspect, Charles Carl Roberts IV shot ten girls, ages 6-13, killing five
 in the initial incident, and a sixth victim, who later succumbed to her injuries
in 2024. Like the Minneapolis shooter this week, Roberts committed suicide. 

Considered the worst school shooting in the history of the state of Pennsylvania, 
this Amish community, whose lives were changed forever by this senseless act 
of evil, approached the situation in an unexpected way. They did not use the
tragic incident which befell their community to demand the passage
 of more gun control laws or to eschew the power of prayer.

They realized that the entire situation was the result of sin.

  The Amish people of Nickel Mines chose forgiveness. 

The grieving parents forgave the man who murdered their daughters.
They also went and visited the shooter's family to pray with and comfort
 them as they grappled with their own shock and grief.

This was not the typical response of the world. In this latest case,
one Republican lawmaker posted on X:  ".. but to the shooter,
 I have one thing to say in response. F*** you. Burn in hell."

The sad reality of this statement is the shooter is most likely in Sheol,
 separated from God for all eternity, until he is raised to stand before Him
one day to give an account of his actions.  Then he, and others like him,
 will be thrown into the Lake of Fire prepared for Satan and his angels.

 By his own prideful admission, the god of this world has been wandering
  through the earth collecting victims since He was first cast from Heaven.

"Where have you come from?" said the LORD to Satan.  "From roaming to
 and fro through the earth," he replied, and walking back and forth in it." 
(Job 1:17)

This is what is happening in America and around the world today.

  Satan knows better than anyone else that he is running out of time.  

He knows that he cannot stop or frustrate the forthcoming plans of Almighty God.

Yet, as Jesus warned us, Satan is a murderer, the father of lies, and all that is false.

If he can convince human beings that God did not create man and woman 
in His own image, or as in the case of Robin Westerman, that they are
"transgender", a word which I believe was first coined in hell itself,
 he not only destroys their lives, but their souls as well.

The same can be said about prayer.  If an unwitting mouthpiece for 
 the enemy can convince the American people that prayer is useless,
 and a waste of their time, Satan clearly has the advantage.

 Former WH Press Secretary Jen Psaki recently posted on X: 

 "Prayer is not freaking enough. Prayer does not end school shootings, prayers
do not make parents feel safe sending their kids to school. Prayer does
not bring these kids back. Enough with the thoughts and prayers...."

  God clearly tells us through the prophet Amos His solution to stop the
  impending judgment coming upon a wicked and idolatrous nation:

"Seek Me and ye shall live!"
(Amos 5:4)

Pray America!  Pray like your life depends on it.

Because it does.


Fletcher Merkel, 8, and Harper Moyski, 10, were killed in the
  mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School and Church
 this week. May they rest safely in the arms of the One
who said, "Let the little children come unto Me".

Rollin' Over The Cracker Barrel



It was actually last year-May 2024- when the executives at Cracker Barrel began 
 to plan the change to the company logo, as well as reiterated their undying
"commitment" to diversity, equity, and inclusion, better known as "DEI".

And, although the company denies working closely with the UN Human Rights Council,
the restaurant chain's former management and training leader, Steve Smotherman
who spearheaded an LGBTQ employee resource group at Cracker Barrel, went
on to sit on the highly controversial UN group's Business Advisory Council.

In recent years, conservative and religious rights advocacy groups have claimed
that evangelical (Bible-believing) Christians have been singled out and unfairly
targeted for discrimination by the UN-HRC regarding their stance on issues like 
LGBTQ + rights and abortion.  The UN-HRC meanwhile conveniently twists
 the narrative, claiming it frames their position as defending, "the rights
of vulnerable groups" against discrimination, "justified by religious beliefs"
 and not as an attack on Christianity itself.

According to a recent report from FOX News, former Cracker Barrel executive
  Smotherman, who joined the company in 2005, claims that he was initially 
reluctant to do so due to it's alleged "bad reputation" with the gay community.  

In 1991, the chain instituted a corporate-wide policy stating that any employee who
failed to demonstrate "normal heterosexual values" would be fired.  After 11 employees
were fired, purportedly due to their sexual orientation, protests and boycotts were
staged throughout the country.  Gay rights groups like the National Gay and Lesbian
Task Force called for action against Cracker Barrel, which rescinded this policy by
March of that year, however, the former company-wide vote to ban discrimination
against gay employees would not take effect until 2002. Almost 25 years ago.

 Now the executives of Cracker Barrel found it necessary to remove genial mascot
Uncle Hershel from their company's logo as part of their "rebranding" program.
Why? Does Uncle Herschel somehow represent the anti-gay policy of the past? 
 Is it perhaps due to the fact that he is an "old timer" white man and a Christian from
   the Southern Bible Belt, even perhaps the progenitor of a traditional American family?
  He could even have been a father, a  grandfather or great-grandfather.  
In truth, the "old timer" was based on the founder's real life uncle.

The founder of the family friendly country store and restaurant chain was a
 man named Danny Evins, an evangelical Christian with strong conservative 
 values. A man who would not allow alcohol to be served in his restaurants and 
 who preferred Christian music to be played during business hours.

Oh, and by the way, the restaurant was given the name "Cracker Barrel" not
 because Uncle Herschel was conceived as a "cracker" which is a derogatory
slang term for a poor white southerner, but was named after the little
country grocery stores of America's past, where people, usually men, would
 come to talk, exchange news, and occasionally play a game or two of checkers
 on top of an empty barrel which was used to transport soda crackers to the store.

The enormous public outcry over this most recent attack to erase all traces,
 not only of traditional Americana, but the influence of God's Word within our
  increasingly secular culture, in many ways mirrors the Chick-fil-A controversy in 
 2012, when that company's CEO Dan Cathy, an evangelical Christian, and political
 conservative, said that he believed in traditional marriage between one man
and one woman.  Same-sex marriage was not federally recognized at the time.

Although Mr. Cathy had every right to express his deeply held, biblically-based
belief, certain members of the duplicitous, corporate-backed news media went
ballistic, and initiated a vicious public campaign against the restaurant chain,  
 encouraging protests and boycotts.  

And yet, people of all races, religions, and sexual orientations have always been
 welcomed there and still come to dine at the local Chick-fil-A restaurants near me.
 The parking lot is usually packed with cars and the drive thru lines are so long 
 that employees are often sent out on foot to take orders from hungry customers.

 At last report, I have yet to see any employee out in the parking lot,
or by the front entrance of the restaurant holding up a sign, saying:
"Please Check Your Sexuality At The Door".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wednesday's Word: Chatan/Bridegroom

 

 

 

 "So I will betroth you to Me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness
and justice, in loving devotion and compassion."

"The bride belongs to the bridegroom.  The friend of the bridegroom stands
and listens for him, and is overjoyed to hear the bridegroom's voice.
That joy is mine, and it is now complete.

 PSALM 62

 

 For Zion's sake I will not keep silent,

and for Jerusalem's sake I will not keep still,

until her righteousness shines like a bright light,

and her salvation like a blazing torch. 

Nations will see your righteousness

and all kings your glory.

You will be called by a new name

that the mouth of the LORD will bestow. 

You will be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD,

a royal diadem in the palm of your God.

No longer will you be called Forsaken

Nor your land named Desolate;

but you will be called Hephzibah

and your land Beulah; 

for the LORD will take delight in you,

and your land will be His bride. 

For as a young man marries a young woman,

so your sons will marry you;

as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,

so God will rejoice over you. 

On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have posted watchmen;

they will never be silent day or night.

You who call on the LORD

shall take no rest for yourselves,

nor give Him any rest

until He establishes Jerusalem

and makes her the praise of the earth. 

The LORD has sworn by His right hand

and by His mighty arm:

"Never again will I give your grain

to your enemies for food 

nor will foreigners drink the new wine

for which you have toiled.

For those who harvest grain

will eat it and praise the LORD,

and those who gather grapes

will drink the wine in My holy courts." 

Go out, go out through the gates;

prepare the way for the people!

Build it up, build up the highway;

clear away the stones;

raise a banner for the nations! 

Behold, the LORD has proclaimed

to the ends of the earth,

"Say to Daughter Zion:

See, your Savior comes! 

Look, His reward is with Him,

and His recompense goes before Him."

And they will be called the Holy People,

the Redeemed of The LORD;

and you will be called Sought Out,

A City Not Forsaken. 

-Berean Standard Bible

 

 

"FORSAKEN" is a dreary word.  It sounds like a knell. It is
recorded of the sharpest sorrows, and the prophecy of direst ills.
An abyss of misery yawns in that word, "Forsaken".

Forsaken by one who pledges his honor!  Forsaken by a friend so
long tried and trusted! Forsaken by a dear relative! Forsaken by
father and mother! Forsaken by all! This is woe indeed, and yet
it may be patiently borne if the Lord will take us up.

But what must it be to feel forsaken of God?

Think of that bitterest of cries,

 "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?"

Have we ever in any degree tasted the wormwood and gall of 

"Forsaken" in that sense?

If so, let us beseech our Lord to save us from any repetition of
so unspeakable a sorrow.  Oh, that such darkness may never return!

Men in malice said of a saint, "God hath forsaken him; persecute and take him." 

 But it was always false.

The Lord's loving favor shall compel our cruel foes to eat their own words,

or, at least to hold their tongues.

The reverse of all this is that superlative word, "Hephzibah":

"The Lord delighteth in thee".

This turns weeping into dancing. 

Let those who dreamed they were forsaken hear the Lord say,

"I will never leave thee nor forsake thee."

-Charles Haddan Spurgeon

FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Bill Gates: The Un-Elected Man Who Controls Your Food, Health, And Future

 

 

  

 

"And so, dear friends, let us not be gripers in dealing with people-especially pipers!
Sometimes, it's not in our power to choose just what we keep and what we lose.
And those who can't see beyond the cost, should consider this tale and what was lost."

himself  a "global philanthropist" while, among other things, has pushed 
for immunization through vaccinations, the side effects of which have

 To everything there is a season,

and a time for every purpose under heaven:

a time to be born and a time to die,

a time to plant and a time to uproot,

a time to kill and a time to heal,

a time to break down and a time to build,

a time to weep and a time to laugh,

a time to mourn and a time to dance, 

a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stone together,

a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

a time to search and a time to count as lost, 

a time to keep and a time to discard,

a time to tear and a time to mend

a time to be silent and a time to speak,

a time to love and a time to hate,

a time for war and a time for peace.

(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8)

Only What's Done For Christ Will Last

 

 

"Some people want to live within the sound of a church bell.
I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell."
- Reverend Charles Thomas "C.T." Studd 

 

 

 In 1885, C.T. Studd was one of the Cambridge Seven, a group
 of  students from  Cambridge University in England  who
  decided to become Christian missionaries to China. 
During his service there, he married his wife, fellow missionary
 Priscilla Livingstone Stewart. The couple had four children-all girls.
Reverend Studd believed that God had given him and his wife
daughters to educate the Chinese about the value of baby girls.

Two little lines I heard one day, Traveling along life's busy way;

Bringing conviction to my heart, And from my mind would not depart;

Only one life, 'twill soon be past, Only what's done for Christ will last. 


Only one life, yes only one, Soon will its fleeting hours be done;

Then, in 'that day' my Lord to meet,  And stand before His Judgment seat;

Only one life, twill soon be past,  Only what's done for Christ will last. 

Only one life, the still small voice,  Gently pleads for a better choice. 

Bidding me selfish aims to leave,  And to God's holy will to cleave;

Only one life, 'twill soon be past, Only what's done for Christ will last. 


Only one life, a few brief years,  Each with its burdens, hopes, and fears;

Each with its days I must fulfill, living for self or in His will;

Only one life, 'twill soon be past,  Only what's done for Christ will last. 


When this bright world would tempt me sore,  When Satan would a victory score;

When self would seek to have its way,   Then help me Lord with joy to say;

Only one life, 'twill soon be past,  Only what's done for Christ will last.


Give me Father, a purpose deep,  In joy or sorrow Thy word to keep;

Faithful and true what e'er the strife,  Pleasing Thee in my daily life;

Only one life,  'twill soon be past,  Only what's done for Christ will last. 


Oh let my love with fervor burn,  And from the world now let me turn;

Living for Thee, and Thee alone,  Bringing Thee pleasure on Thy throne;

Only one life, 'twill soon be past,  Only what's done for Christ will last. 


Only one life, yes only one,  Now let me say, "Thy will be done.";

 And when at last I'll hear the call,  I know I'll say 'twas worth it all.";

Only one life, 'twill soon be past,  Only what's done for Christ will last.
