We live in a sinful world! Sin exists everywhere we look! We try to ignore it and look for the good but eventually it stares us right in the face! Look in your mirror! It lives in everyone who has ever lived! It lives in you and me! To deny you are a sinner is to become a liar! So what does sin do? It for one causes death! Physical and spiritual death! Sin is a perversion of the Image of God! It is designed by Satan to make God look bad! Eve go ahead and eat the fruit! But God said we will die if we eat this fruit? Eve God is a liar! Go ahead and eat the fruit for God is trying to hold something good back from you! The culture war here in America is over sin! In our scriptures God says not to kill or murder! Yet abortion promotes death! Homosexuality is the promotion of death! God commanded us to promote life through reproduction! So life through these sins perverts life and kills it! Suicide rates among transgenders, homosexuals, lesbians is 60 percent higher than the rest of our population! God is a liar go ahead and do it? The promotion of sin is at the top of our political debate! Socialism is another example! We find in the Book of Genesis that God worked six days and created the Heavens and the earth! All the planets are the same age! God designed the garden for us to work in! To bring out our gifts he has given us! One of our Ten Commandments says we shall not steal! We shall not covet! People for socialism want to live off the work of others! Free stuff earned by others! This is theft of property! Satan’s job is to make God look bad! His purpose is to deceive you into living a life that will prove his lie to be true! The teaching of Evolution in our schools teaches our children that God does not exist! Another lie! These sins are so threatening to civilization that God provided his only Son Jesus Christ to sacrifice himself for our sin to give us a way to escape the judgment of our own sin! This is the remedy provided by God to defeat Satan! Is it any wonder Satan persecutes Jesus followers! Persecuting them through social media, the Press and Hollywood! Even through our own government through tax payer funded abortions! We are either forgiven sinners or we are unforgiven sinners! Our public schools are funded through our tax dollars that promote evolution! God is truth and Satan a liar! What you do not want to do is believe a lie and find out the truth in Hell that you followed a lie! Jesus said I am the truth the way and life and no man comes to the Father but by me! Truth is embodied in the person of the God/Man Christ! Do you believe the truth or a lie? The choice and Blessings or consequences separated from God are yours to chose! James and Hamsa Sasse.

Sin Has No Name? Ezekiel 3:18
There is a generic name for the wickedness across America named from our pulpits! The generic name for wickedness is sin! However the sin is never named? Satan seems to have no name either? Did you ever hear the name Satan or Devil used coming from our American pulpits? Political correctness seems to rule the day even in the church? Sin has names and they are all listed in your Bible! They are names like homosexuality, gay marriage,lesbianism, transgenderism, idol worship, adultery, fornication, gambling, forbidding to marry, divorce, drugs, abortion or child sacrifice and the list goes on! God told Ezekiel that if he did not warn the wicked then their blood would be on his hands! How do the wicked in 21st Century America know what to repent of? Like the Muslims who think they do not need to repent because they do not sin so do the rest of the wicked have been deceived by Satan! When is the last time your heard the Ten Commandments recited from the American pulpit? Jesus named the Devils and then cast them out! Can we not name the Devils in American culture? When Jesus saw the woman caught in adultery he told her to sin no more! You cannot win a war against an enemy you cannot identify! If America cannot name her enemies both foreign and domestic then we will lose the fight! Resist the Devil and he will flee from you! No resistance in the church? Jesus name is above every name! Above the names of sin! We can count our blessings and name them one by one but we cannot name our enemy? One day we will stand before Christ to give an answer! No excuses then! The Anti-Christ will have a name represented by the number “666”. Sometimes referred as the Mark of the Beast! You see Satan will hide behind a number to camouflage his name! People then will easily submit to taking his mark after all it is just a number! It is time for the leaders of the church in America to take the camouflage off Satan and expose his names for what they are! We in the church do not need to be part of a cover up politically correct scheme to protect Satan! If we do not call out Satan it will do us no good to call out the Savior! James and Hamsa Sasse.

Sin of Socialism!
That is not a just government, nor is property secure under in it, where the property which a man has in his personal safety and personal liberty, is violated by arbitrary seizures of one class of citizens for the service of the rest. President James Madison, Fourth President (1809-1817)
Worship in Heaven! Revelation 4:11
We are given a vision of worship in Heaven in Revelation Chapter four! After all the imagery of colors and the participants in worship around the Father and our Christ a conclusion is given in verse eleven of this glorious event! There is a key Greek word translated into our English word “Created.” This word confirms the creation story in the Book of Genesis! The conclusion of worship here is the acknowledgement to God and his Christ is that the residents of Heaven were created beings! You may think so what? Big deal! The revelation comes when you look at the second Greek word or the root Greek word the first Greek word is taken from! The two Greek words are the Strong’s # 2936 and # 2932. Strong’s #2932 is the key word! This Greek word means to purchase! We were purchased with a great price! His own blood! God is not a cheap skate to get something for nothing! The worshippers in Heaven were saying you purchased us with a great price! Your own blood! This is why the rejection of Jesus Christ is such a serious offense to God! Your redemption cost him everything and to reject this means separation from God in Hell. If we chose to keep our sin then we pay our own price for our sin! Separation from God forever!

Blind Sided? Revelation 2:5
What does repent really mean? Jesus asked the church at Ephesus to repent! In fact Jesus asked five of the seven churches in the Book of Revelation to repent! These are saved people! The blind side of sin is it can only look back and not forward! Sin is a Spirit that causes an evil action! It is listening to a voice in your head that opposes the Word of God! True repentance is not just regret for getting caught but a change of heart towards God! Recognizing we have a future beyond our sin and outside of ourselves! God does not overlook our sin he paid a price on the Cross for it! Sin is defeated understanding our forgiven past and promised future! That is why we must forgive others! Repentance is more than the regrets for sin but a willful choice to abandon the sin that led to the regrets! It is more than just sorry! Looking forward to the promises of God and not looking back! To live only for today will lead to sin! To live for tomorrow today is visionary and looks from God’s perspective into eternity! To fly blind is to not take God at his Word! Suicides are all about taking sin on all by yourself! That is what Judas did! Years ago we were trying to help this lady who told us I know God has forgiven me but I cannot forgive myself? We shared with her that then you are making yourself greater than God! Sin is about making yourself greater than God! Satan’s suicide plan for your life is defeated by putting God in his proper place in your life! Even some religious people can move God to the side lines of their lives but then will get blind sided to sin! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Freedom without Law?
Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred! Martin Luther King Jr. Comment: Laws can be on the Books but never enforced! That is what sanctuary cities and open borders are all about! Not enforcing our laws! The civil rights laws after the abolition of slavery were on the Books for over one hundred years but never enforced! The Ten Commandments have been in the Books for at least 4000 years yet broken everyday by man! We can legislate until the cows come home yet how to enforce laws in a rebellious world? God had to find someone who never broke any of his laws yet was human to pay the penalties of men! Then that perfect God/Man would have to be sacrificed for the penalty of sin! This perfect lamb would be sacrificed to reconcile man to God! God had one which qualified for the job! His only Son Jesus Christ! His whole purpose was to die for our sin! When we personally recognize our sin against God and man and the great cost that came to him for our redemption for breaking the law then our attitude towards the law changes! The attitude is I want to follow the laws because it cost so much for him to fix my breaking of the law! Jesus said if you love me keep my Commandments! God’s love brings victory over hate! Martin Luther King knew he was going to pay a price to free his people! Even after the civil rights laws that were put on the Books in the 1960’s no significant change came until after his murder! Then American’s woke up to the fact they had gone to far! Because of the price paid their thirst for hate dried up and a new day of reconciliation came to America! But a sacrifice was required! Freedom requires a sacrifice! To overcome hate and revenge! If all of the world would accept the God given sacrifice of his Son Jesus Christ for their sin another human sacrifice would never be done on earth! Jesus said we must be born again! Something much greater than our first birth! It is a Godly birth with the character of thinking and acting like God making sacrifices for others rather than sacrificing others for yourself!

Praise or Wail? Revelation 1:7
Just as Jesus ascended into the clouds from earth to heaven so Jesus at his second coming will descend back to earth through the clouds from heaven! There are many instances of clouds in the Old Testament! The cloud over the Tabernacle! The cloud over Mount Sinai! These clouds represent the presence of God! These clouds at his second coming will not hide Jesus from the world but will show Jesus to the world where no one will have any doubts it is him! Remember the dark cloud over Calvary? The Father could not look on the terrible fate of his only Son on the Cross! Jesus cried why have you forsaken me? Many had forsaken Christ that day including his disciples! Have I ever forsaken Christ? Yes! The disciples repented and Jesus enlisted them again to continue his work here on earth! The most difficult day for those who have not repented of their sin is to witness Jesus second coming! It says in this scripture that they will wail! They will cry and mourn! Why could they not rejoice at his coming? Because they rejected Christ and he comes to the earth a second time not as Savior but as Judge! Those that pierced him will wail! We have all pierced him but then some have repented and let Jesus take our sin upon himself! So when he comes back will you be able to rejoice or will you wail? Which group will you be in? Remember wailing always begins with a mockery of Christ! A mockery on those that follow Christ! In pride you know more than God? You are bigger than God? Mockery of Christ and his followers is a sign of no repentance towards God! Of all the kindreds of the earth which group will you be in? While you still have the breath God has given you consider turning your mockery of Christ into Praise of Christ! There is only one King of Kings and only one Lord of Lords! Who is your King? Yourself? Mortal men? If you have chosen God his Christ your King then you mourning will be turned into dancing joy! Our choice is between one of two places in eternity! Heaven or Hell! It is all up to you! It is your choice! We can make a bad choice while on earth and still recover but to make this choice about eternity an error there is no room for repentance when you witness Jesus at his second coming! This time for repentance is right now! The opportunity will pass by you only once! Do not trash God and throw this opportunity away! Eternity is forever and this life is very short! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Communion & Holy Days!
In communion the bread representing Jesus body is about God becoming flesh at Bethlehem as we celebrate the Christmas story! His flesh broken for us as we break the bread together! His blood represented by the cup as his blood shed for our sin for an atonement a gift given to us! His blood shed at Calvary which we celebrate at Easter! So both Holy Days are represented in our communion services! His body and his blood! These two great events are the only hope for mankind! Pastor David Jeremiah
Christmas Forever! Luke 1:33
Greek Translation: “And he shall rule and reign over those that belong to Christ the household family of God from Jacob forever; and his Kingdom of Royal dominion over heaven and earth in the heart’s of men shall have no end with continues victory over sin as the purpose of men is consummated in him!” Comment: So will we be celebrating Christmas in Heaven! Yes! With billions of people and millions of Angels! So what will we be doing when we follow Christ back to earth at his second coming? We will be celebrating the second Christmas! Merry Christmas! James & Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
God becomes Man!
Jesus was God and man in one person, that God and man might be happy together again! George Whitefield (1714-1770), English Cleric and founder of Methodism. Comment: This was the only way man could be reconciled back to God! God had to become man! So that God could be sacrificed for the sins of men! No other plan would work otherwise man would have been separated from God forever! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse, GodWhoisGod.com
