Sin Lovers.

MATTTHEW 14 -1-12 TEXT.READ THE STORY.

SECOND TIMOTHY 3-1-5 READ.

VERSE 2 ,FOR MEN SHALL BE LOVERS OF THEIR SELVES COVETOUS, BOASTERS ,PROUD ,BLASPHEMERS ,DISOBEDIENT,TO PARENTS ,UNTHANKFUL,UNHOLY.

WE HAVE FOUR PEOPLE IN THIS STORY.

1.JOHN THE BAPTIST IN HIS LOYALTY.

2.HEROD THE KING IN HIS LUST.

3.HERODIAS THE QUEEN IN HER LAWLESSNESS.

4.THE DAUGHTER OF HERODIAS IN HER LEWDNESS.

WE SEE IN THIS STORY HOW HEROD AND HERODIAS AND HER DAUGHTER LOVED SIN MORE THAN THE MEASSEAGE AND THE MAN OF GOD. BUT WE STILL HAVE A WORLD FULL OF SIN LOVERS IN 2003.

OUTLINE.

1.MATT.12-4 PEOPLE LOVE SIN MORE THAN GODS WITNESS.

A. JOHN WAS A FEARLESS WITNESS.

B. JOHN WAS A FERVENT WITNESS.

C JOHN WAS A FAITHFUL WITNESS.

D. JOHN WAE A FACTUAL WITNESS.

JOHN HAD A BACK BONE, JOHN PREACHED THUS SAITH THE LORD.

JOHN STOOD UP, AND HE SPOKE UP,FOR THE LORD.

HE PREACHED THE WORD OF GOD, THE WILL OF GOD,AND THE WAY TO GOD.

2.MATT.12-4 PEOPLE LOVE SIN MORE THAN GODS WORD.

WE LIVE IN A HOUR THAT IF A MAN OF GOD PREACHES THUS SAITH THE LORD AND TELLS IT LIKE IT IS HE WILL FIND THAT THE WORLD IN MAJORITY STILL DEPISES THE WORD OF

GOD.

GODS WORD IS STILL TRUE, AND STILL POWERFUL. AND STILL PERFECT. WE SHOULD READ IT , PREACH IT, STAND ON IT. SHARE IT, LOVE IT.

3.JOHN. 14 1-3 PEOPLE LOVE SIN MORE THAN GODS WEALTH.

GOD PROMISES UN TOLD WEALTH TO HIS CHILD IN JOHN 14 1-3 AND YET PEOPLE WOULD RATHER HAVE THE PENNIES OF THE WORLD THAN THE PALACES OF GLORY.

4.PEOPLE LOVE SIN MORE THAN GODS WOOING.

WEBSTER SAYS THIS WORD MEANS ,,TO SOLICIT IN LOVE, TODAY THE HOLY SPIRT OF GOD IS LOVINGLY SOLICITING THE USAVED TO COME AND BE BORN AGAIN YET THEY WOULD RATHER COUNTINE IN SIN RATHER THAN TO LISTEN TO HIM.

REV.22-17,AND THE SPIRT AND THE BRIDE SAY COME.

5.PEOPLE LOVE SIN MORE THAN GODS WAY. JOHN 14-6

JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN.

JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE SAVED. ACTS 4-12

JESUS IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN FORGIVE OUR SINS.

IN CLOSING,

ROMANS;6-23 SAYS, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH: BUT THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. AMEN!!!!!!!

TURN FROM SIN TO THE SAVIOUR TODAY.

WE CANNOT SIN AND WIN.
