    Jesus kingdom is not from this world but he taught us to respect the ones in power. In history God uses His people to influence and free His people. As Christians we must fight for the right by all means necessary, spiritually and politically.

    This is a revision of a sermon I posted over a year ago on another website. The subject matter is more timely than ever considering the rapid descent into evil and chaos we have witnessed recently. Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

    There are some things that are getting more hard to find as the days draw nearer to the LORD'S return, such as ethical politicians, intelligent leftists, happy liberals, competent leadership, and sound Biblical preaching on the reality and horror of a literal, real place called hell.

    It is a sermon about King David and his knowledge that no matter what, God was with him. That even though he was a sinner, he could go before God with his broken and contrite heart and receive forgiveness.

Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: "FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE KILLED ALL DAY ...read more
