Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!" John 19:15 And they dragged some of the brethren to the rulers of the city, crying out, "These who have turned the world upside down have now come here...all acting contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying there is another king —one called Jesus." Acts 17:7 What we are witnessing today is the modern American repetition of the age-old conflict: “Who is King? Who has the final jurisdiction Christ or the State?” Jurisdiction is an essentially religious fact: it tells us who is the god over a particular sphere or area; it reveals to us who declares the law for that domain. In other words, it shows us who is lord. R.J. Rushdoony We hope you can be with is this weekend for the concluding message in Pastor Ray’s sermon series for 2023: “Obey God-Defy Tyrants” ...

Obey God, Defy Tyrants, Part 32
August 19, 2023
You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach, or a different kind of Spirit than the one you received, or a different kind of Gospel than the one you believed. 2 Corinthians 11:4 Pastor Ray's Theme This Weekend Multitudes of professing American Christians have embraced 'another Jesus', received 'a different Spirit', and believed 'a different kind of Gospel'. And many are not even aware of it! Bruce Abramson “The New Religion of Wokeism”, The Epoch Times "Americans haven't turned away from religion; they have merely found a new faith…the new religion of Wokeism." Ron DeSantis “Woke is the new religion of the left.” Voddie Baucham “Too many Christians are caving in to the culture in the name of being nice '. But it time to confront the blind guides of the woke culture of our day, who strain out gnats but swallow camels.” We hope you can be with us this weekend for Part 2 of Pastor Ray's teaching on "Woke Jesus: The False Messiah of the Christian Left". ...

You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach… 2 Corinthians 11:4 (NLT) "So how did a nation built upon Judeo-Christian values, ratified by a Declaration of Independence signed by over 29 members of the clergy, and later established with a motto of 'In God We Trust' arrive at the place where the future of the Church is at stake and faith in Christianity is in potential disrepair? Certainly we could blame external factors...but I'd like to start by looking at a less obvious culprit: the church itself. Lucas Miles, "The Christian Left" Consciously or unconsciously, the modern American church is contributing to our cultural decline, worshiping a "Woke" version of Jesus Christ.

"Look high and low; search throughout the city! If you can find even one just and honest person, I will not destroy the city.” Jeremiah 5:1 (NLT) Do you believe in "The Power of One"? Do you believe that you, as an individual believer, can actually bring a blessing to an entire society? God does! And He is still looking for individual believers who will seek the truth and refuse to take part in the lie. Will you be one?

One man of you shall chase a thousand, for the Lord your God is He who fights for you... Joshua https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehkoajyw5dy&t=1390s When tyranny and injustice rise all around us, we can begin to feel that we, as individuals, are powerless in the presence of all the problems confronting us today. But the truth is that the individual is far more powerful than commonly believed! Butler Shaffer, “Boundaries of Order” This is the only way in which any meaningful social change can ever take place; it will either arise within each individual, or it will not occur at all. Those who insist upon change coming from above, as something to be imposed upon mankind by institutional authorities, have given up on people. They have lost their confidence in the life processes that exhibit themselves only within individuals. It is now time to give people a chance to bring order to the world by bringing themselves to order. We hope you enjoy Pastor Ray's encouraging message, "The Power of One". ...

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind… Romans 12:2 The great danger of our day is not what the world is doing; it is how many professing Christians are being conformed to it. And it will require courage to overcome the cowardice of conformity. "To counter the continuum of destruction that is a product of too-much conformity and too-much government force, more people need to act with moral courage--a willingness to encounter risks so as to defy immoral orders, reject authoritarian government control, and to stand up for the disappearing values of truth, freedom, and justice."

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind… (NKJV) Do not be conformed to this age (HCSB) Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. (NLT) Romans 12:2 "The great enemy to the renewed mind, which we must avoid, is conformity to this world. All the disciples and followers of the Lord Jesus must be non conformists to this world." Matthew Henry The real problem of our day is not what the world is doing, but how many professing Christians are allowing themselves to be conformed to it. But be warned! Complying with the clear command of non-conformity to this world is going to require some courage. "The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, it is conformity."

I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart... Psalm 27:13-14 “A decline in courage may be the most striking feature which an outside observer notices in the West in our days… Should not one point out that from ancient times that declining courage has been considered the beginning of the end?” Alexander Solzhenitsyn (1978) The great British clergyman J.C. Ryle bemoaned the decline of Christian courage in his day as 'jellyfish Christianity', a spineless form of the faith that occurs when 'courage is eclipsed by cowardice', and 'conviction is hijacked by capitulation.' Modern American Christianity is facing the same challenge. We hope you can be with us this weekend for Pastor Ray's message, "Spineless: The Decline of Christian Courage". ...

Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 1 Corinthians https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpobrv7nuiw&t=973s The Apostle's clear command to the Corinthians, 'act like men', carries little meaning in a culture where there is no understanding of what biblical manhood really looks like. Confusion abounds, even among Christians. "Our culture has taught us to define manhood by the 3 B’s: on the ball field, in the bedroom and by the billfold: How does he perform athletically, sexually, and how much money does he have?

…through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men… through one man's offense judgment came to all men… Romans 5:12,18 The demise of responsibility began in the Garden of Eden when our first father sinned and blamed it on others. The same sin that caused the collapse of the culture in Eden continues today...when men fail to be responsible men. "The failure of a culture is the failure of the men in it. A society cannot be vital and possessed of an on-going vigor if the men therein are marked by a loss of faith, a retreat from responsibility, and an unwillingness to cope with their personal problems." R.J. Rushdoony. The primary responsibility for the condition of a culture rests upon its men.

Gen 3:11-13 And God said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?" Then the man said, "The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate." And the Lord God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." Dr. Henry Cloud We live in a culture of blame. People will blame anyone or anything for their misery, sooner than take responsibility to own it and make it better. Mankind has been playing the 'blame game' since the Garden of Eden. But today, it has become our national pastime. And it is destroying us. The majority of America’s problems can be solved if we will return to the biblical principle of personal responsibility.

"For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice."Jesus, in John 18:37 "I am the...truth." Jesus, in John 14:6 The cause of the crisis in contemporary American culture is not really political or economic; it is our fundamental failure to faithfully speak up and stand up for the truth, as revealed in Christ and His word. The church wins or loses according to our faithfulness in bearing witness to the truth! "If we compromise on the issue of absolute truth, then we betray the next generation to absolute darkness.

And Pilate said to Jesus, "What is truth?" John 8:38 "Truth is so obscured nowadays and lies so well established that unless we love the truth we shall never recognize it." Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) Jesus, on trial before Pilate, had informed him that He had come into the world 'to bear witness to the truth', prompting Pilate to ask the question that has confronted mankind since the Garden of Eden.

“For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth.” John 18:37 "I am...the Truth." Jesus in John 14:6 "The present chasms between the generations has been brought about almost entirely by a change in the concept of truth. The way we come to knowledge about truth is the most crucial problem facing Christianity today." Francis Schaeffer, “The God Who Is There” The man who wrote these words in 1968 has proven to be a prophet. The greatest spiritual warfare of our generation is a battle over the concept of truth: What is truth? How do we know truth? The church wins and loses according to our faithfulness in bearing witness to the truth. This is a war the Church can win...and will win!
