Man Always Fights Against God's Sovereign Decrees

Chris McCann

A woman commented on EBF's Facebook page:

"Again The Lord ends with, keeping His commandments, His Revelation to mankind, the TRUE GOSPEL THAT HE WILL HAVE A PEOPLE UNTO HIMSELF NOT OF WORKS BUT OF GRACE THROUGH FAITH ie CHRIST JESUS THE SAVIOR. Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. EBF preaches a gospel of a one sided sword, it can only bring death. If there are no new Christians to be saved then you should be silent and not commit murder, you have no more seed. Effectively you have born all the fruit you will ever bare. Christ's sword brings life or death and only he decides that. The gospel is an everlasting gospel, it is freedom and mercy that endures forever unto every generation. Until the last day."

EBF reply:

Yes, only God decides because He is the sovereign King. And when He sovereignly decided to save certain ones (His elect) and not the rest of mankind, there are those who accused the declaration of the sovereign King's right to do that as unjust and fought against that faithful Gospel of election.

Or when God sovereignly decided to save within the church for a time. And at the last to save outside the church with the latter rain for a time. There are those who claim His movements to save in certain locations and not others were unjust and so they fought against them and the sovereign King's right to bring His salvation to the place wherein He chose to do so.

And so it is with the King's sovereign decree that He would save His people according to His plan of specific times and seasons (and not your plan or any other frail creature's plan), the accusation goes up once more that for God to decree such a thing is "unjust" and it is fought against. It is the same rebellion in all cases. It is the sinful foolish creature daring to usurp the authority of the Holy all wise God and Creator.

Men who fight God concerning His sovereignty over saving whom He will think it is cruel to save only some and not all.

Likewise, men who fight God concerning His sovereign decree to shut the door (His door) to heaven at a time of His choosing think it is cruel for God not to leave the door open for all time and for all people.

In both cases sympathy is played upon. Statements such as "my God would not do such a thing" are made. And in both cases the soothing lie of Satan is lifted up as the righteous alternative. Men fall for such lies all the time. But that doesn't change the fact it is a lie. And lies are always ugly. And lies are never loving. Nor are they ever truly kind. Lies help no one at all. Lies always do damage and bring ruination.

The truth is that it is Judgment Day. And it has been Judgment Day since May 21, 2011. As the world falls apart more and more on a daily basis, the knowledge of this fact (that it is Judgment Day) has comforted God's elect people. We know what is happening.

But for the poor souls that do not know, I pity you. For your world is passing away right in front of your eyes. And you know something is desperately wrong. But you refuse the truth concerning what that is. And instead prop up your own gospel in its place. Your gospel won't help anyone in the time of judgment. It won't even help you.
