“Television is the Satanic family altar,” Church Of Satan
founder Anton LaVey, said in 1966, “Television is the major
mainstream infiltration for the new Satanic religion.” Satan's Family Altar Called TV
Here are some astonishing quotes of his; “The Tv set (is the) Satanic family altar.” “Television is the major mainstream infiltration for the new satanic religion.” “It should be brought out that we not only
condone, but encourage all types of what would be called sexual
perversity and deviations because we feel that in a few short years
it will be established that everyone is a sexual deviant and
pervert.” The Church of Satan directly attacks all the Christian principles which this country was founded upon. Through television, Internet, and various forms of media, the Church of Satan is winning the war, but only if we let it. Daniel J DeNoon WebMD from the article Media Exposure Linked to Child, Teen Health, Behavior Problems says: “When the researchers looked at kids who said their parents strongly disapproved of them having sex, those who watched more than two hours of television a day were 70 percent more likely to have sex. And if sex-disapproving parents didn't monitor their teens' TV viewing, more than two hours a day of TV upped a teen's odds of sexual initiation by 250 percent.” The study by The Parents Television Council, titled "Happily Never After" finds that television broadcast networks depict sex within marriage as "either non-existent or burdensome while showing positive depictions of extra-marital or adulterous sexual relationships with alarming frequency." “These study results suggest that many in Hollywood are actively seeking to undermine marriage by consistently showing it in a negative manner,” said Tim Winter, president of the PTC, in a release. He goes on to say that in addition to its mostly negative portrayal of marriage, television has also become a stage for sexual expression that would have been unacceptable less than a generation ago. Those include, according to the survey, threesomes, partner swapping, pedophilia, necrophilia, bestiality and sex with prostitutes. Add to that depictions of strippers, references to masturbation and sex toys, and television has created the perfect storm to blast away the last remnants of family values in Hollywood, the report suggests. Winter said “the phenomenon will undoubtedly
influence the values of future generations.” You can read the full

Homeland Security is
brainwashing Americans through Hollywood...
Literally, Homeland Security has a liaison working in Hollywood to incorporate brainwashing propaganda into movies, including regular television, to turn Americans into mindless morons. They've succeeded! The average person cannot think beyond what Hollywood and the mainstream media have indoctrinated them to believe. Woe unto America!
The mainstream newsmedia has been admittedly lying and deceiving the American public for decades. The only reason why criminal elite Globalists got away with the 911 attacks is because of the lying wicked mainstream newsmedia. They are highly paid, professional, liars! BBC News reported that World Trade Center building # 7 fell 23 MINUTES before it actually fell. They KNEW before 911 happened. They made it happen!!! The Globalists even mock us by placing their insignia upon their works of darkness.
Television is truly “Tell-Lie-Vision.” It's not just the newsmedia. Television has been used by the Devil's crowd to INDOCTRINATE a society of feminists, brats, whores, rebels, drunkards, blasphemers, homosexuals and God-haters. Below is a screenshot from the satanic, pedophile, Hollywood, garbage: “Dance Moms”...
Leviticus 19:29, “Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.”
“I Love Lucy” Show Promoted Lying Deception
Lucy, training women to be deceitful liars. Satan wants to infiltrate your home with TV. Satan is the father of liars and he encourages others to lie and deceive (John 8:44).
Satan often works through humor to deceive people and draw them away from the truth. When the sitcom, I LOVE LUCY starring Lucille Ball first appeared in the 1950's, many people at the time had a huge problem with it because it centered around a manipulative woman who was constantly lying to her husband, family and friends.
Lucy's lies and deceptive behavior were clothed in humor, and while it was difficult for people to receive in the 1950's, today we have deteriorated so far morally that no one even bats an eye. Lucy even looks like the Devil, continually shifting her eyes and lying about everything. The “I LOVE LUCY” show ought to have been renamed “WHO'S THE BIGGEST LIAR?” Instead of laying around watching “I LOVE LUCIFER,” why don't you spend time training your children up in the Lord.
As evidence that Satan was behind the I LOVE LUCY show, consider the following. Lucille's close friend, Carole Lombard had died in a horrible plane crash in 1942. Carole was a second generation Bahá'í and was formally declared in 1938. Lucille Ball said her decision to do “I Love Lucy” was made after Lombard came to her in a dream in 1951 and advised her to take a chance and enter the unknown and at the time, risky world of television. So Lucille Ball claimed that the spirit of her friend Carole Lombard, who'd been dead for 9 years, came to her in dream to give career advice. That is a demonic practice known as “necromancy” (communicating with the dead).
“It was the spirit of actress Carole Lombard who guided Lucille Ball into taking a chance on television and accepting the offer to star in 'I Love Lucy'”
SOURCE: Hollywood's Satanic Agenda (documentary exposing the occult roots of Hollywood)
Lucille Ball stated...
“I want to thank you again for bringing my teacher in spirit. I've read about some of the séances you've held—I always thought it would be fascinating to bring in a spirit.”
SOURCE: I Still Talk To Kenny Kingston, Pg. 6
Although a professed Protestant and member of Norman Vincent Peale's (1898-1993) church when she died, there is no question as to the anti-Christian, anti-family spirit behind the I LOVE LUCY show. Lying and deception in marriage are sins. The I LOVE LUCY show is just one of many demonic shows promoting feminism, corrupting family values and teaching wives to be lazy, liars, loafers and lackadaisical.
Many people today, men and women alike are lying deceivers. They lie about everything. A habitual liar is someone who lies continually. A pathological liar is someone who lies so much that they think they're telling the truth. END
“Look at Hollywood in 1999. Jews totally dominate the film industry.

"Harry Potter, Sabrina The Teenage Witch, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Charmed. It seems we cant get enough of all things magical or 'witchy' at the moment. The result of all this interest is that Wicca has become the fastest growing religion in the UK. Wicca is a nature-based spiritual path that celebrates the feminine, follows the changing seasons of the year and is rich with magic and enchantment. But is it all spells and hocus pocus?
Kate West's grounded introduction to the Craft separates the Hollywood myth from the everyday reality, with all the practical advice you need to follow the Wiccan way. There are many coffee-table pretenders around, but Kate West is the real thing. Her Witchcraft is about passion, not fashion! She explores the myths that surround Witchcraft, its festivals, beliefs, practices and folklore. She explains the responsibilities of becoming a Witch and provides plenty of magical and herbal spells you can work with - from charms to help you attract your ideal partner to healing potions for natural beauty to affirmations that will help you find empowerment. Witchcraft can help you to become personally fulfilled as it teaches you take control of yourself and your life. Whether you want to join a group or a work alone, this is a great guide to Wicca."

Pastor M.R. DeHaan Exposes Evils Of TV
The following information is quoted from pages 67-68 of the excellent work by Dr. M.R. DeHann, titled 508 ANSWERS TO BIBLE QUESTIONS (copyright 1952)...
Please Give Me Your Opinion On Christians Having Television
In regard to your question concerning television, I have some very deep convictions concerning this matter, and personally I think it is much more of an evil than it is of good or of blessing. It is the most expensive way of getting the Gospel out. The cost of television is so tremendous that we could reach far more people by radio than we can by television. Moreover, I believe that “faith cometh by hearing,” and not by seeing.
There is so much trash on television that I would not have one in my home at all. Especially where there are small children, I think it is an evil thing, because practically everything on it is murder and crime and shooting and things of that kind. Where there are only adults in the home who are established in the faith, and have sense enough to turn off the trash of the world, and look only at that which is good, I don't suppose there is too much evil in it, but certainly where there are children in the home it is a damaging influence.
Pastor DeHaan wrote those words about the evils of television back in 1952. Can you imagine what he would say about television today?
“Insanity because we're in sin!”
—Brother Lester Roloff (1914-1982), from the sermon “Steps In The Degeneration Of Our Nation”
It's Not That Hard to Figure Out
Every time there's a horrible crime committed in America, the manure-spreading newsmedia flocks to witnesses, friends and relatives of the victim(s) to get their opinion. People always say the same lame things. They make statements such as, “Bill was the best guy in the world. It makes no sense. Why would anyone want to hurt a great guy like Bill?” Or they'll say something like, “Jane gave a lot to the community.
She was a good mother and wife. We just can't figure out why someone would do such a thing.” It's really not that hard to figure out. We have removed children's moral compass. You can't teach children that they evolved from apes and then actually expect them to grow up to believe in morals. The fable of evolution robs a child of faith in a Divine Creator, i.e., a God Who has rules He expects us to live by. No wonder America is in such a big mess today. And you can believe it's only going to get worse, much worse!
Case in point, in April of 2009 a father snapped in Graham, Washington, killing his five children in a shooting rampage, and then took his own life. Mary Riplinger, whose kids were playmates of the slain, stated, “How could something like this happen?” She further stated, “Everyone's asking: Why did he do it? It's not right.” Is it really that hard to figure out? Look at all the violence Americans watch on TV . . .
“The American Psychological Association says the average child watches 8,000 televised murders and 100,000 acts of violence before finishing elementary school. That number more than doubles by the time he or she reaches age eighteen.”
SOURCE: John Johnston, “Kids: Growing Up Scared,” Cincinnati Enquirer, March 20, 1994, p. E01
It has been proven through many studies that violence on television DOES increase social violence . . .
“The Parents Television Council cites a review of nearly 1000 studies presented to the American College of Forensic Psychiatry in 1998. They found 'that all but 18 demonstrated that screen violence leads to real violence, and 12 of those 18 were funded by the television industry.'”
SOURCE: David Grossman, “What the Surgeon General Found; As Early as 1972, the Link Was Clear Between Violent TV and Movies and Violent Youths,” Los Angeles Times, 21 October 1999, B-11.
Mary says, “Everyone's asking: Why did he do it? It's not right.” Now, I'm no expert, but I think it might be because we as a nation have forsaken God, prohibiting public school teachers from reading the Bible to the students, prohibiting public school teachers from leading children in prayer, allowing our children to view thousands of murders on TV and requiring public school teachers to tell children they evolved from apes. When are we going to wake up as Americans are stop kidding ourselves? We get what we deserve.
Americans want to spit on God, murder babies by abortion, fornicate, dress and act like whores, promote witchcraft, watch immoral sex and violence on TV, glorify wickedness in “Sin City” Las Vegas; but then freak out when someone actually does what they've enjoyed watching on TV a thousand times. America is a sicko society. Repent America!

Subverting Youth Away From Their Homes, Their Country, And Their Religion
by Commander William Guy Carr (1895-1959)
Few people realize the important part modern movies play in subverting youth away from their homes, their country, and their religion. Many movies show an hour of film in which the criminals and bad men and women do everything that is forbidden by our laws and moral code and devote one minute during which the law catches up with them, or they die because of their sins. Films taken of actual fighting durian the Mexican revolution in 1913 were shown in Galveston, Texas. The sight of seeing men killed in battle, or being dragged from their homes and slaughtered by revolutionaries caused women to scream and faint, and men to vomit. Public opinion caused the showings to be prohibited. To-day these scenes are shown on films advertised as "Children's Special" for Saturday afternoon performances. That is just one illustration of how the general public, and particularly the children, have been systematically hardened to accept the sight of violence and bloody death as normal.

Welcome to THE OUTER LIMITS!
“There is nothing wrong with your television. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the transmission. We control the horizontal, and the vertical. We can delude you with 1,000 channels, or expand one single image to crystal clarity and beyond. We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive. For the next hour we will control all that you see and hear.”
The preceding introduction appears before every episode of THE OUTER LIMITS television series. The frightening thing is that what they are saying is true of ALL television, and not just THE OUTER LIMITS. The Network's executives, writers, and producers can shape your vision to ANYTHING that their deranged, perverted, demonic-controlled, darkened IMAGINATION can conceive (Romans 1:21,32). They have complete voluntarily control over your mind, and the minds of your loved ones, when you watch their programming. Be careful what you watch on TV!
TV IS A PSYCHO-SOCIAL WEAPON
We live in a world today were people’s personalities are formed by unreal things: TV, the music industry, video games, movies, the effects of drugs (be that of the recreational or psychotropic variety). Virtual reality dominates the interests of a lot of people out there, even young adults and people of my own age group in their 30′s. All conversation is about this or that TV show, the latest new video game on the latest new console or who’s top of the Premiership. It’s a sad state of affairs.READ ARTICLE: TV IS A PSYCHO-SOCIAL WEAPON

The following words are taken from SATAN'S BID FOR YOUR CHILD, an excellent sermon by Pastor Jack Hyles which every parent needs to read, because the Devil wants your children...
"The truth is, parents do not know what is going on. I am going to be very frank tonight. No punches barred tonight. If I have superintendents of schools and principals and teachers calling me by the thousands tomorrow, it does not matter. I am going to try to save your kids if it makes the whole town mad. Tonight I am going to spend myself to save your kids. I am going to risk your devotion, your love, your fellowship, maybe your friendship, but I am going to do it because, with all my heart I want to save your kids."1
Satan wants your child! Children today are being brainwashed by the heathen school system to believe the lies of Evolution, Communism, feminism, homosexuality, and then they sit for hours in front of the HELLivision when they come home from school, getting more of the same filth. Television today is saturated with sexual perversion, nudity, and immorality.
Only an idiot for a parent would allow their child to sit for hours in front of a TV watching Devilvision. Walt Disney programs aimed at teens promote sexual perversion, immodesty, rebellion against parents, lesbianism, New Age, selfishness, and heathen living. Walt Disney's TV shows are provocative, featuring teen girls clothed and filmed in sexually suggestive manners. God hasn't lifted His ban against Disney.
The 13 Bloodlines of the Illuminati
Many singers, musicians and Hollywood actors profess to be under the influence of spirits. Aleister Crowley, the most infamous Satan-worshipper of the 20th century, said that the most effective method of demon possession is invoked by losing one's self in an artistic performance...
"There are three main methods of invoking any Deity. ... In the third, identity is attained by sympathy. It is very difficult for the ordinary man to lose himself completely in the subject of a play or of a novel; but for those who can do so, this method is unquestionably the best." —Source: Aleister Crowley, MAGICK IN THEORY AND PRACTICE, chapter one, 'THE PRINCIPLES OF RITUAL.'
Why Things Are So Bad These Days
By Pastor Jack Hyles
“Ladies and gentleman, do you want to know why the television programs have gotten as rotten as the Devil in recent years? Do you want to know why the narcotic problem is a menace to almost every high school in this nation? Do you know why that the plays and movies have become full of nude scenes? Do you want to know why that cursing is allowed on television, and things that used to be censored are now accepted? Do you want to know why that mini-skirts are running rampant, and you want to know why that Communism, and Rock music, and all the dirty things that Satan has caused in our generation; do you want to know why they're here?
I'll tell you why, Jesus is coming soon! The Devil is going to get put down soon, and he knows he has but a short time. So he comes in the last days of this age and says, “I'm going to have great wrath, great fury, I'll launch every weapon I have, I'll launch every gun I have, I'll take every bit of the arsenal out of Hell and point it at the people on earth.”
Now here's one of the tragic things about this entire Scripture (i.e., Revelation 12:12), and that is the Devil is wiser than we are. We also know we have but a short time. He knows he has a short time, he gets busy; we know we have a short time, we stay home and watch television... We've got to stay busy for God!”

“What our mothers and father used to sic the bull-dogs on, now we welcome into our homes—Television.” —Dr. Lester Roloff
James Cameron and Stephen Spielberg are God-hating, snakes, evil men. They're both multi-multi-millionaire Hollywood producers. Every movie that they've ever produced has actors cursing REPEATEDLY in God's name. It is Hollywood's insignia, i.e., to blaspheme and curse the holy God of the universe.
Deuteronomy 5:11, “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.”
These men in particular produce movies that curse in God's name. James Cameron's movie, THE ABYSS, he has the actors cursing in God's name THREE DOZEN times throughout the movie. Over and over, “God ____” this, and “God ____” that! It is so evil. Even in Stephen Spielberg's JURASSIC PARK, you'll hear God's holy name being cursed. Cameron made THE TITANIC and ALIENS. They all contain cursing in God's name. By the way, the creator of the alien creature in ALIENS is a devour Satanist, and the alien represents Baphomet. Hollywood hates God, hates the Bible, and hates Biblical Christianity! Hell hath enlarged herself! (Isaiah 5:14).
Isaiah 5:15, “And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment...”

Why Parents Should Ban Hannah Montana
The Darkness Of Their
Imaginations
What do professed Christians think about in the darkness of their imaginations? What do they watch on Hellivision and UNHOLYwood (or HollyWEIRD)? What do they listen to when no one is around? Could their fellowship with the world affect their ability to overcome sin? Could it hinder their relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ? Yes, definitely! James 4:4, “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.” Are you a friend of the world or of God?
Ezekiel 8:8-10,12 reads, “Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door. And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here. So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed [or displayed?] upon the wall [or TV?] round about. Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what THE ANCIENTS [supposed spiritual leaders] of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, the LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth.”
God knows what we watch on TV. It's just as bad to watch adultery on TV as it would be for us to be in same room with the adulterers. The TV has a DESENSITIZING effect on its viewers. Sin is not shocking anymore but rather becomes commonplace (no big deal). This is why many people have become lackadaisical and acceptant of the wicked sin of sodomy. The following reads like a synopsis of HELLivision and UNHOLYwood:
Romans 1:28-31, “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful.”
Verse 32 is the clincher for the professed Christian that enjoys watching such things:
Romans 1:32, “Who KNOWING the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, BUT HAVE PLEASURE IN THEM THAT DO THEM.”
Watching, reading and listening to these things is having pleasure in them that do them. The bottom line is that when we participate as willing observers we are having pleasure in sinners who are sinning. This is an abomination to the Lord Jesus Christ! Galatians testifies AGAINST the evil works that professed Christians ENJOY on hell-i-vision:
Galatians 5:19-21, “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall NOT inherit the kingdom of God.”
There is much misunderstanding about these Scriptures in Galatians 5:19-21. We also read...
1st Corinthians 6:9-11, “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”
Please notice the phrase, “BUT YE ARE WASHED, BUT YE ARE SANCTIFIED!” My friend, the very moment that you receive Jesus Christ as your own personal Savior, you're sins are cleansed away for ever. When you are washed in the precious blood of Jesus, you're not condemned under the law of God anymore. You've been forgiven!!! Amen, you're now under God's grace. When you get saved by faith in Christ Jesus, God only sees the righteousness of His Son when He looks at your eternal record, and not your sins (past, present and future). Gone, gone, gone, yes my sins are gone!!! When we receive God's gift of eternal life by believing that Christ died on the cross and rose, we are saved. 1st Thessalonians 4:14, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.”
If you are a born-again Christian, then God has saved you from your sins. This is exactly why Christians ought to forsake the sin-promoting indoctrination of television and replace that time with constructive things, like listening to preaching and the King James Bible. God deserves better form us. When you watch TV, Satan is trying to put garbage into your mind. I doubt if a man who lives to watch football on TV goes soul-winning regularly. Sports Illustrated is whore city, filled with indecent floosies with their clothes off. No man is right with God who watches that type of stuff, or who eats at Hooters. It may be natural for the carnally-minded man, but God wants us to be spiritually-minded men, who walk in the Holy Spirit, so that we will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. Do you care?
Truly, we are all sinners on our way to Hell if we don't get saved. The ONLY hope is in Christ Jesus. If we will turn to the Lord Jesus Christ in childlike faith for forgiveness of our sins, believing that He died on the cross and rose, we will be saved and forgiven of ALL the wrongs we have ever committed. God is a good God!!! A murderer is no longer viewed as a murderer in God's eyes once he gets saved. The same is true of an adulterer. His or her sins are washed away by the blood of Christ. However, once we become a Christian, God expects us to grow spiritually and live according to the Word of God (Romans 12:1-2; 1st Peter 2:2). God chastises His children (Hebrews 12:6-8). If we continue to live in sin, though we CANNOT lose our salvation, we grieve the Holy Spirit and do not grow in the Lord. Christians who live in sin are held accountable by God at the judgment seat of Christ, but their salvation is safe and sure in the arms of Jesus (1st Corinthians 3:15).
As believers, we should avoid the TV if we have a problem with it. It is NOT a sin to own a TV, but it takes great responsibility nowadays to own one. I don't watch TV. Like anything else, it's a double-edged sword! The technology is a blessing, but the evil hearts of men make it a curse instead. When you watch television you go into a lower brainwave state. Your subconscious is a hundred times more powerful than your conscious mind (see how the power of suggestion increases alcoholism). Television producers have mastered the art of manipulating the human psyche. They understand human psychology and that makes the television a powerful weapon.
Television gives you the illusion of connection to other people and to the world. No matter how empty and pathetic your own life might be, you can turn on the television and immerse yourself in the stories and emotions. Movies and TV programs let you get to know their characters in intimate detail, you seem to share the most important experiences of their lives (as they fall in love, divorce, fight wars, cure diseases, defeat alien invaders, and so on). But of course, it's a false intimacy, an illusion of reality. You don't know these people, the characters and events you're vicariously experiencing probably never existed, and even if they did they're still not part of your life and never will be.
TV is a dangerous influence. It is commonplace on television for men to make inappropriate sexual advances on women, make perverted comments, touch them, et cetera; whereas in real life such behavior is illegal and oftentimes results in loss of one's job, reputation and prison time. and Meanwhile, your own life still is empty. You just don't know it for a couple hours, while you watch The Simpsons or Raiders of the Lost Ark. You feel as if you had experiences which were exciting, funny, tragic, meaningful, but really you just spent the afternoon staring into a box.
The Television has indeed become “Hellivision” and we would be wise to spend our time doing something more constructive. END
I love Brother Hyles (1926-2001)! This sorry nation owes Pastor Jack Hyles a debt of gratitude that cannot adequately be expressed in words. Millions of people's lives have been saved from Hell, changed for God, and blessed tremendously under Pastor Hyles' 55-years of faithful ministry. America needs a handful of preachers like Dr. Jack Hyles—who unconditionally loved people, unselfishly gave his life to bring America back to God, and uncompromisingly preached against sin . . . “Do you know what's wrong? Before you know it, you will turn to sin if you don't keep sin exceeding sinful. I'm not going to get to the place where I say, 'we at First Baptist Church look with disfavor on the movies.' No Sir! I'm going to say, 'That dirty Hollywood crowd is sending our nation to Hell.' I'm going to say, 'Young people, stay out of the movie houses! Stay out of them! Stay away from the Hollywood crowd! Stay away from the adulterous kind of sinful crowd, and turn your television off when one comes on.”

The great need of the hour is PREACHING PREACHERS!!! America could be brought back to God if preachers would start preaching again! The Holy Bible says in Matthew 12:34, “for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” Preachers don't preach against sin anymore, because they don't walk with God, and they don't hate sin in their heart as they should. Jeremiah said, “But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay” (Jeremiah 20:9). Jeremiah had quit preaching at a time of discouragement, because his message from the Lord was one of doom for Israel (Jeremiah 25:11); but the Word of God burned in the prophet's heart and he couldn't take it anymore, so he started preaching again!!! Does God's Word burn in your heart like that? It does mine!
This world is filled with ingrates today who hate Jesus Christ, like comedian Sarah Silverman. The real joke is her life...
“Good! I hope the Jews did kill Christ, I'd do it again. I'd F*cking do it again in a second!” —Jewish comedian, Sarah Silverman, Jesus is Magic; 72-minute movie, 2006
Anton
LaVey was the founder of the Church of Satan. He died on October
30th, 1997, and unfortunately, because God's church is the sleeping
giant, LaVey's followers and his agenda to desensitize Christians
through the media, lives on.
