As a matter of clarification, allow me to inform you that it is commonly believed that the Apostle Paul did not personally write all of his Epistles. Due to his poor eyesight — which may have possibly been a result of the incident on the road to Damascus where the Lord struck down Paul, and left him blind for three days — Paul was forced to dictate a number of his Epistles to his traveling companions.
“After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.” Acts 19:21, KJV
“And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.” Acts 23:11, KJV
“And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli: Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome. And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage. And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.” Acts 28:13-16, KJV
“To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ . . . So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.” Romans 1:7, 15, KJV
“Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. [To the Galatians written from Rome.]” Galatians 6:18, KJV

“The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you. Amen. [Written from Rome to Colossians by Tychicus and Onesimus.]” Colossians 4:18, KJV
“But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.” 2 Timothy 1:17, KJV
“The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. [The second epistle unto Timotheus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the Ephesians, was written from Rome, when Paul was brought before Nero the second time.]” 2 Timothy 4:22, KJV
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. [Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.]” Philemon 1:25, KJV

And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” Acts 2:1-4, KJV

“And as I [Peter] began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?” Acts 11:15-17, KJV
“Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,” Acts 13:9, KJV
“And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.” Acts 13:52, KJV
“And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;” Ephesians 5:18, KJV
Now if you’re hoping to get a fair shake,
Forget MSM, do not make that mistake.
All liars and cheaters, those people be,
Both sides of a story they cannot see.
They spin the truth to their own desire,
Tongues full of so much poisonous fire.
Playing their game of wicked deception,
They try to alter our reality perception.
The “facts” are whatever they so claim,
Those manipulators have zero shame.
They aim to rake you through the coals,
Even tho their story is just full of holes.
They dig in claws to make you bleed,
So be smart & to my words take heed.
But if they entice you run the other way,
And simply reject everything they say.
Don’t you dare ever take their vile bait,
If you ignore my words, it’ll be too late.
Whether some of you realize it or not, our nation has been slip sliding away for literally decades. However, the slide has been so slow, so gradual, and so subtle, that it wasn’t until about halfway through the decade of the 2010s that a lot of people really began to wake up to what has been going on. However, sadly, by that time, it was already too late. Serious damage had already been done, and the victory had already been won. What has been going on since then basically amounts to mopping up exercises and tying up the loose ends. And boy are they doing a good job of it!
So exactly what am I talking about?
Well, do you remember a few decades ago — back in the 1970s, actually — when the LGBTQ+ crowd began claiming that they just wanted to be left alone to live their lives as they please without harassment or discrimination?
Fast-forward fifty years, and you will see one long history of continuous lies, as they aggressively advanced their radical, extreme agenda.
Then came gender reassignment surgery.
Then came renegade, liberal circuit court judges who repeatedly overturned the will of the people.
Then came renegade, liberal state legislatures who likewise overturned the will of the people.
Then came civil unions.
Then on June 26, 2015 came nationwide legalization of same-sex “marriage” by mandate of the Supreme Court of the United States, despite the majority of the American people being opposed to it.
Then came openly gay or lesbian bishops, pastors, priests, politicians, actors, sports figures, and everyone in between.
Then came same-sex union blessings in some of the churches.
Then came adoption of normal, healthy children by same-sex couples.
Then came law suits against Christians and Conservatives who follow their hearts and their faith, and who oppose the LGBT lifestyle.
Then came library books which openly promote the LGBT lifestyle.
Then came gender-neutral bathrooms.
Then came drag queens in our public schools during children’s story hour.
Then came teaching LGBT history in the classroom.
Then came liberal parents who encourage their children to act and dress like the opposite sex.
Then came hormone injections, puberty-blocking drugs in young children and double mastectomies on adolescent girls in order to alter their natural-born physiology so that they could appear outwardly the way that they were being made to feel inwardly by misguided adults and parents.
Then came a gender-neutral option on birth certificates.
Now they promote their ungodly lifestyle in every area of the entertainment and mass media industries where they possibly can, and constantly shove it in our faces. It is inescapable; unless one goes and lives in a cave.
Now, in the latest news, according to an article in The Washington Times, some liberal-minded schools aren’t happy with just offering LGBTQ+ books in their school libraries. Now they want to FORCE young children with impressionable minds to read them, whether they like it or not.
Yes, but of course, as they said, they just wanted to be left alone. Right? If you believe that nonsense, then you are seriously deceived!
Thankfully, some parents are fighting back and taking it to the US Supreme Court. If the justices accept the case, let’s hope that the God-fearing justices on the bench will do what is right in the sight of God by giving these brave parents a victory.
But concerning the LGBTQ+ agenda, well I say this:
What about us? What about our right to live in a Bible-based, God-fearing society which honors and obeys God’s natural order of things? How much longer will God endure this madness and rebellion against His holy Laws? When will His patience finally run out? When will His judgments begin to fall on the wicked who mock Him everyday, and who cast His Word to the ground? As the Apostle John wrote some two thousand years ago:
“And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.” 1 John 5:19, KJV
If John were alive today, oh how he would shudder!

By the way, when we come to Jesus Christ and are reborn in the Spirit, the Scriptures make it very clear that we should undergo a spiritual and mental change in our lives, and that we should in fact become NEW CREATURES in Jesus Christ. We should NOT remain the same, living our same old life style, and living in our same old sins. That means that people who belong to the LGBTQ crowd should NOT continue practicing their sexual deviancy. Here is Scriptural proof:
