Ten Commandments

False Expectations

William Blake whore babylon

One of the terms of today’s society is “a body of information”.

In today’s world, there is such a body of misinformation that it leads people to the wrong conclusion, or false expectations, especially about God.  There is a lot of questioning of God and blaming of God.

Wrong information leads to wrong understanding, wrong believing, and wrong actions.  Or, a lack of information may make it impossible to make progress.

What do I mean?

Let’s think about an airplane.

Let’s say you have never seen an airplane before.  You have heard rumors that an airplane can fly in the air.  You come across one in a field.

You look at it, you walk around it, you consider it.  How can this heavy piece of metal fly in the air?

You laugh and scoff at it.  You might even curse the plane because you can’t budge it.

Maybe you find the door to the cockpit.  You go in there; you look at the instruments. You sit in the pilot’s seat. You have no clue what it is all about.  You leave.  The plane remains in the field.

After you leave the airplane, and have walked a distance, you turn around.

You see a pilot walk to the airplane, enter the airplane, start it up, take off and fly.

What was the difference?  Knowledge.  Training.  Expertise.   And that did not come in one day, though the pilot might have made it look easy.

Society overall, western society overall, historical western society overall, in the past, made it a bit easier to find God, to relate to God, to follow the Lord.

Then society began an ever faster downfall deeper and deeper into sin.

The first “d” curse word was in Gone with the Wind in 1934.  The first “f” curse word onscreen was in 1970.

In other words, entertainment was not the sewer it is today.

Character used to be important.

Keeping your word used to be a matter of honor, not something kept only long enough to get a vote.

Prayer and the Bible use to be honored in the schools.

Church services used to be held in the U.S. Capitol.

It used to be a shame to be on welfare, not an entitlement.

“Man” and “woman” were based on Biblical definitions, for the Biblical purposes of having a family.

Family was the building block of society.

It was recognized that God created man and that man (in the generic sense, meaning mankind) had a moral obligation to God.

Then evolution, the still unproven fairy tale, which was popularly pushed, just as agendas are pushed today…like Russian collusion, Covid jabs (dangerous), masks, etc….the evolution agenda was pushed and that agenda pushed God out of society.  It was profitable to certain parts of society to push God out and market ungodly lifestyles.  There is a lot of money to be made in certain activities contrary to the Word of God.  There is a lot of power to be held over men as men seek to remove God from a society.

Someone is making a lot of money by tearing down the border and letting drugs pour across the border.  There’s a lot of money to be made for the armaments industry while running a proxy war in Ukraine and laundering money back to corrupt politicians through aid packages.  But I digress.

When the knowledge of God was freely recognized in society, there was a certain framework of the Ten Commandments that was recognized as well.  Property rights, the right to life, family rights, priority of the mother and father over the children, honoring God in society, character in education, honest facts in science…these and more were more abundant and flourishing at other points in history.

We have lost that and just like the serpent’s lie in the beginning…ye shall be as gods…the serpent implied that God was withholding something from Adam and Eve…and they chose to live contrary to God, and found out that the results were downward, not upward…so as a society throws off the restraints of the moral law of God, of the Ten Commandments, which at the beginning, according to the sly whispers of the serpent will be fun…liberating…freeing…the end result is a place like…San Francisco with the drugs and refuse on the streets…or Chicago with the murders…or open borders where illegals enter the houses of businesses and citizens to steal…or drive by shootings…or drugs…or fentanyl.  It all sounds so freeing at the beginning, but the wages of sin, the wages of living after the flesh, is death.

Romans 8:13  For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

 

Just as you would never learn to fly a plane by taking a quick seat in the cockpit, so you can never learn about God and learn to walk in His ways without serious effort…especially in this world which is so contrary to God at every turn…in entertainment; books; news reporting; perversion of science; misuse of technology; redefinition of historical terms, dictionary terms, and the rewriting of history; AIs, and the rebellion against law and order, even in those who are supposed to uphold it; and the lack of societal recognition of the necessity of the pre-eminence of God and His Word.

 

Revelation 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

 

Revelation 17:1  And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

5 And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.

 

Revelation 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

16 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;

23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

 

To avoid being one of the souls of men  captured by Babylon, takes continual, dedicated, and earnest seeking  for the Lord, to find the Lord, to follow the Lord.  A casual visit to church once or twice a year is not enough to escape the whirlwinds of damnation falling upon Babylon.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.

13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

14 And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.

How the Children of Israel Caused Their Own Problems Through Their Words

Tissot The Dead Bodies Carried Away

In the New Testament, we are exhorted to avoid the unbelief of the children of Israel.

How can we know of the authenticity of scriptures?  Here is a link from a well-known expert.

Why I Believe The New Testament Is Historically Reliable

 

Hebrews 3:6 (KJV) But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.

7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.

11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?

19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

Hebrews 4:4 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

3 For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

5 And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.

6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

 

How did they indicate their unbelief?  It was through their words.  It was through murmuring and complaining.

Without going into details of the history of this passage, which you can learn by reading the Old Testament itself, we come to the place where the generation that had viewed the mighty works of the Lord, the plagues sent to Egypt, the Passover, the deliverance from Egypt, the Ten commandments at Mt. Sinai, the manna in the wilderness, the water out of the rock, the miracles of deliverance and preservation by the Lord God, were judged for their murmuring, complaining, and words.

Numbers 14:1   And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.

2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!

3 And wherefore hath the Lord brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?

4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.

5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.

6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:

7 And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land.

8 If the Lord delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.

9 Only rebel not ye against the Lord, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the Lord is with us: fear them not.

10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of the Lord appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.

11 And the Lord said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them?

12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.

13 And Moses said unto the Lord, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;)

14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou Lord art among this people, that thou Lord art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.

15 Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,

16 Because the Lord was not able to bring this people into the land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in the wilderness.

17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,

18 The Lord is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.

19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.

20 And the Lord said, I have pardoned according to thy word:

21 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.

22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;

23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:

24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.

25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

26 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

27 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.

28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:

29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me.

30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

32 But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness.

33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.

34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.

35 I the Lord have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.

36 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,

37 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the Lord.

38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.

39 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.

40 And they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which the Lord hath promised: for we have sinned.

41 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the Lord? but it shall not prosper.

42 Go not up, for the Lord is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.

43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the Lord, therefore the Lord will not be with you.

44 But they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.

45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah.

 

I just want to highlight a few verses that indicate that they received according to their belief and words.

Numbers 14:2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!

Numbers 14:28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:

29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me.

 

Scripture is consistent within itself to point out ongoing themes that are important.  The importance and connection between faith and words is in multiple places in scriptures.  The only way to cover them all is to get a good concordance and look them up.   A few well-known key verses are listed here.

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

 

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

 

James 1:6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

 

Matthew 12:33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.

34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

The Decoupling of Society

Link credit

Matthew 7:24 “Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock. 25 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock. 26 Everyone who hears these words of mine and doesn’t do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell—and its fall was great.”

 

The slide of society has been so gradual for decades that it becomes foggy on how we got to where we are today.

Basically, what we see around us a a decoupling of western society from what is called its Judeo/Christian roots, which did form a foundation under society for centuries.

There used to be an understanding that the norms of society were built on principles found in the Old Testament and New Testament.

The value put on human life, on private property, on morality, ultimately were drawn from the Ten Commandments and teachings of Jesus.  The founding Fathers, understanding the sinful nature of mankind and original sin, designed government with a separation of powers to prevent power being aggregated within the corruption of one person or small conclave of persons.

Those safeguards and attempts to create a society with checks and balances, with morality based on the Bible, has been eaten away at for decades.

Instead of preservation of life we have murder; instead of preservation of property, we have theft; instead of marriage between a man and woman, we have transgenderism.

All this and more has come about due to the decline of the teaching of the Bible and Biblical principles, such as the Ten Commandments; the secularization of society; the intimidation of the church by atheists, modernists, and secularists; and the rise of a satantic globalist agenda to take over the world and recreate a world without God.

The church has been, overall, intimidated to  a position of sitting on the sidelines and watching.  It has been bullied to not take its warrior position in society.  Songs like “Onward Christian Soldiers” are no longer sung.  The power of the blood of Jesus is not talked about because the church doesn’t want the left to be critical of language “blood”, but the Blood of Jesus is a weapon against satan.  It must be talked about, sung about, and used in prayer.  The church has been crimped in its use of language because of the effectiveness of the technique of the left to criticize language or topics the left doesn’t like, while at the same time forcing its language and agenda, and changing vocabulary, down society’s throat.

It has gotten so bad, the suffering has become so great, that people are beginning to rise up off the sidelines.

Society has to be structured on the laws based on Biblical principles.  If someone breaks into a store and steals, the the principles of law, of “thou shalt not”, have to go into effect.  Otherwise, you have the situation that now exists in some cities where clerks watch helplessly and corporations shut down stores that are no longer profitable due to the level of theft.  It is no way to run a city, or a nation.

There has been a mantra, perhaps not spoken, but underlying…if you love me, you won’t criticize me, no matter how much damage I do.  That is not scriptural.

But again, the church has been bullied into a corner where all it can talk about is love and grace, while going light on topics like discipline and responsibility.  This position, this posture that the church has been cornered into, is not helping society.

Faith without works is dead.

What Are the Ten Commandments of God?

Tablets of the Ten Commandments in The Ten Commandments trailer

Ten Commandments Trailer screenshot, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

Exodus 20:1  And God spake all these words, saying,

2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

7 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.

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

13 Thou shalt not kill.

14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

15 Thou shalt not steal.

16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
