SALVATION IS NOT A LICENSE TO SIN
SALVATION IS NOT A LICENSE TO SIN....
The path to Heaven is a straight and narrow one and you may not stray from it. When you get saved you may not sin. Vanity is still a sin. Envy is still a sin. Jealousy, Greed, Lust. Still sin.
I recently heard a fellow who watches preachers every week, say he was perfect compared to his son.... What a horrid thing to say. What a sinful thing to say.
Getting saved does not mean you can sin again. It does not mean that you are better than others. Getting saved does not make you eternally saved. It does not make you perfect. You can still sin. You can still stray. There are no perfect people on the earth. None of us are angels. None of us are immortals.
Watching John Hagee on TV every night wont get you into Heaven. Going to church every week wont get you into Heaven. Dropping to your knees and reciting a poem wont get you into Heaven.
Salvation is a journey not the end of it. A straight and narrow path from which you must not stray. Salvation is not a guarantee or a free pass. You can go to church Sunday morning and go to Hell Sunday night if you dont walk the walk and talk the talk.
You cant serve two masters. You can turn away from God. David did. Do you think you are better than David. Do you think you are perfect. No one is perfect. All have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. If you get saved Sunday and live like the devil Monday, you are not walking the straight and narrow path. You are not committed to God. And you must be committed.
Once you get saved, you still can sin. It does not mean you should. It does not make it okay. It does not make you perfect. Just forgiven.
Vanity is one of the worst sins there is, and one of the most deadly. The bible calls it a deadly sin, because it can lead you straight to Hell. You will not pass Go, you will not collect a thousand dollars.
Watch what you say. Watch what you do. Watch what you think. Sin is still sin, yesterday, today and forever. Dont tease God. Dont lose your salvation.
Sinners cannot go to Heaven.
There will be no sinners there. No vain. No greedy. No lazy Christians in Paradise.
Getting saved does not make you better than anyone else. You still have to do the homework. Dont get the big head. Dont take chances.
Walk the walk and dont give up the fight. There is a war on for your soul. Dont lose it.
God Bless you all.

DONT CALL YOUR FRIENDS DOGS
DONT CALL YOUR FRIENDS DOGS.
These days its not uncommon for rappers and their fans to refer to guys as dogs, however, a long time ago, the phrase dog referred to a Sodomite or gay prostitute and was used in the Bible as such.
Deuteronomy 23:18 ESV says
You shall not bring the fee of a prostitute or the wages of a dog into the house of the Lord your God in payment for any vow, for both of these are an abomination to the Lord your God.
This was added because of the practices of prostitution in pagan temples where a patriot would cleanse themselves of sin by having sex with a priest or priestess and paying tribute. Prostitution is forbidden in the temples of God and is not acceptable payment for sins.
Here the term dog is used as a nicer way of saying a male prostitute, so you see that you should never call a friend a dog. The reference is clearly about sexual positions of male prostitutes.
There are other phrases of the Bible where the church regards dogs as immoral and as unbelievers and the muslims often refer to infidels or non-muslims as dogs as well.

PULL UP YOUR PANTS
Pull up your pants.
Wearing your pants on your knees is a practice that started in prison as a way of letting other prisoners know that a male was available for sodomy and as they left prison and went out into the world they continued to advertise their availability to others who knew the meaning of the sign. Many others began to copy them and now there are a number of straight males walking around the world advertising their availability for anal sex unaware simply because they think it is the cool thing to do. Its not, of course, as they are sending false signals out or false advertising their want for sodomy.
Dont mislead. Pull up your pants.
