I’m Stuck in Sexual Sin — Should I Excommunicate Myself? – Ask Pastor John

This post contains 3 videos: the one titled above is second.  I clicked on a 1-minute video from my YouTube notification page yesterday, and was busy doing something and the next two videos that played are posted here in that order. They are all related and relevant to the second video titled above. How so?  The first video is what one is not able to do if he / she is addicted to sexual sin; the third video is an answer to that problem from the pen of C H Spurgeon. It is about how the Lord sanctifies those whom He has drawn to Himself. 

Babylon – What Most Christians Don’t Know

This post used an Answers in Genesis video: In discussing Babylon as it is revealed in scripture, he talked about the term Babylon also being a metaphor for the godless systems of mankind that reveal his pride and rebellion against God. These anti-God systems of power are shameless and corrupting; they applaud debauchery, mock virtue, cancel truth… and are obsessed with power. …As the following 10-minute excerpt begins, he is talking about mankind’s rebellion at Babel and showing parallels with the pride and rebellion of our own day…. 

The Power of Looking for the One! [As in Luke 15:4, leaving the 99 to look]

The video in this post is about witnessing Christ; the speaker explains his book which approaches witnessing according to Luke 15:4  “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, IF HE HAS LOST ONE of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country, and GO AFTER THE ONE that is lost, until he finds it?  …seeking “the one” allows you to experience the refreshment that comes from doing God’s will. Rather than feeling overwhelmed or exhausted [from working in your own strength] you will be energized by the knowledge that Jesus is working through you. By revealing the glory of God and making Him known to others, you become an instrument of His divine purpose. [In the video, he explains that one must surrender to Jesus in prayer, and ask to be used of Him for that purpose….]

Jesus Saves Another from the LGBTQ community

This post contains a 23-minute personal testimony of a homosexual who was led to Jesus. His testimony occurred over several years and is still going on, which seems to be typical. That is, I think that most who are converted from a long-life of sin go through a process something like he described. He now works for First Stone Ministries, which helps the sexually broken. I hope his story is a source of hope for others who are helplessly stuck in sin, sexual and other varieties of sin. Jesus saves sinners, if you are a sinner, then you are qualified to be one of His saved ones.

A Catechism on Human Sexuality – Table Talk Magazine Ligonier Ministries

The Western church presently lives in a time of much sexual confusion. Rev. Christopher Gordon has produced a helpful tool to assist Christians in becoming well-grounded in the biblical teaching on human sexuality. The New Reformation Catechism on Human Sexuality uses the time-tested method of catechesis to teach essential truths from God’s Word regarding sexual issues. The editors of Tabletalk interviewed Rev. Gordon shortly after the catechism was produced, as we believe it is a good tool for Christians to use as they endeavor to obey God’s Word.

Spurgeon’s morning verse is, “In the world ye shall have tribulation” — John_16:33; via this verse, he talks about the furnace of affliction that is necessary to conform the believer into the image of Christ.

Proclaiming the Gospel – Mike Gendron May 2023

The entire News Letter of Mike Gendron’s ministry, Proclaiming the Gospel has been copied and pasted in below. This ministry is about proclaiming the biblical gospel to Roman Catholics, because they are being taught a false gospel based on works. This time, I also pasted in the information about teaching conferences and ministry publications of tracts, books, etc. The links are live to his ministry site, for those who would like to order some of his publications. 

The Enneagram: What Christians Need to Know About It

I have never heard of enneagrams, but if you attend a trendy Christian church, you may have. If that is the case, then please listen to this 10-minute video by a biblical Christian pastor. He goes through the process of ‘testing the spirits’ regarding the enneagram. You will learn about from where, whom it derives; whether it is biblical…. If you would know more, the following link is to a video interview at Doreen Virtue’s YouTube site, the topic is ‘Why I Quit Using The Enneagram.’ In case you do not know Doreen, she was a New Age guru, having written much and spoke much to audiences on the New Age. She was converted to Christianity about a decade or so ago and speaks against all those things today.
