The Darkness of BLM and the Light of the Gospel of ‘Jesus Christ’

There was no doubt that Antifa and Black Lives Matter are wicked organizations. This was known well before all the chaos started months ago. The very foundation of BLM is steeped in wickedness and pagan worship.

This is a great deception brought on by the father of deception, the god of this world, Satan.

Don’t think for a second that large corporations like Nike, the NBA, or government entities like Governors, Mayors, or anyone that can read past the 6-grade don’t know what BLM is about. There isn’t a person on the planet that would give millions of dollars to an organization without knowing what they are about.

City councils across the nation have past legislation because of Black Lives Matter. Police chief’s from dozens of City’s have bowed the knee in total submission to BLM. One police chief even lay face down with his hands behind his back while the hate-filled crowd surrounded him, dehumanizing him.

Is this rational behavior? Of course not!

Knowing full well BLM is steeped in wickedness and pagan worship conjuring up spirits of the dead and more, knowing that the very pillars of BLM are to destroy the nuclear family, abolish the police, release all prisoners and abolish the prison system, legalizing prostitution, legalizing the use of drugs, basically turning America and the planet into hell. Knowing all this how can smart people from all walks of life, every station in life support BLM…?

Because they are being deceived.

The source behind this deception is the father of deceit, the father of lies Satan (John 8:44). The unsaved world is blinded from the Truth by the god of this world.

‘But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. ‘

– II Corinthians 4:3-4

This is a spiritual battle and believers are commanded above all to shine the light of the gospel of grace on the unsaved darkened hearts of humanity. With the hope that the God of glory will open their hearts to a knowledge of the glory of God through the finished work of the cross.

‘For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.’

II Corinthians 4:6

What Saith the Scripture?

Most problems in interpreting Bible passages arise from neglecting a passage’s context. The guiding principle of sound interpretation is to take a passage literally. Not maintaining this discipline, interpreting Scripture becomes made up, man’s idea, fantasy, and the passage can mean almost anything. The result is erroneous and ridiculous interpretations.

Another important principle to sound Bible interpretation is to read Scripture “in-time”. In other words, we have to read and study the Bible as a progressive revelation. Not getting ahead of God’s revelation.

God’s plan of redemption for mankind wasn’t revealed all at once to Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Isaiah, or any of the other old testament prophets. Not even Peter and the eleven were given the full counsel of God. The Lord revealed to each of the aforementioned what they needed at their particular time in Biblical history. A hermeneutical method that does not approach Scripture as a progressive revelation leads to erroneous interpretations.

To be a good bible student one must maintain a literal, grammatical and historical (in-time) hermeneutic. There has been much too much of man’s theology governing Scripture when it is God’s Word alone that reigns over theology.

The Good News

salvation

Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. You don’t have to do anything but believe by faith that God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead 3 days later.

THE GOOD NEWS

SALVATION

Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. SALVATION IS BY FAITH ALONE & FAITH IS BELIEVING WHAT GOD SAYS.

  1. God declares all mankind sinners and we all fall short of Glory of God. Romans 3:23
  2. The payment for our sin is death. Romans 6:23
  3. But God…because he loved you so much sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die in your place, for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead three days later. 1 Cor 15:1-42cor 5:21

All God asks is that you believe by faith alone in 1, 2, & 3. That you’re a sinner, separated from God but God sent his Son to die for your sins, was buried & rose again 3 days later.

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans 10:9
