Brothers and Sisters it is House Cleaning Time!!! It’s time to Examine Yourselves, Your House, Your Work Place, Your Family and Your Friends. We need to See Clearly those things, those Characteristics that are an Abomination to God and to See Clearly those things that God Expects Our Characteristics To Be.

Now we will look at what God Looks at as an Abomination, Sinful Are (some of these do not pertain to us today, but shows Gods Holiness) I will indicate which one’s are for today and which ones are not for today:
“19 And the flesh that toucheth any unclean [thing] shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and as for the flesh, all that be clean shall eat thereof. 20 But the soul that eateth [of] the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that [pertain] unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, even that soul shall be cut off from his people. 21 Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean [thing, as] the uncleanness of man, or [any] unclean beast, or any abominable unclean [thing], and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which [pertain] unto the LORD, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.”
Leviticus 7:19-21
(Not Today)
Jesus took care of All Sacrifices and Offerings, except for One. I will show you the One Sacrifice and Offering in the Heavenly Characteristics…
“Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that [ye] commit not [any one] of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I [am] the LORD your God.”
Leviticus 18:30
(Is For Today)
God’s Commandment, or Ordinance, is still in effect today. God does not want us to be Defiled By the World, taking on Characteristics that He Considers to be Sinful or Ungodly.
“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.”
Exodus 20:3-6
(Is For Today)
“And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of the LORD, that [was] before the porch of the LORD.”
2 Chronicles 15:8
(Is For Today)
“For the time past of [our] life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:”
1 Peter 4:3
(Is For Today)
We Brothers and Sisters are not to have any Type Of Idols in our Lives. This is for both Material Objects and Fleshly Objects. Many of you Sin, having made People Idols putting them upon Pedestals believing they are the Greatest in the Land or the Greatest In Your Life. You can put your Wife, your Children, your Family, your Friends, and you’re Jobs into this category. Anything that you give Allegiance To that You have put Above God has Become Your Idol. There are some of you that Wear Apparel that has become an Idol. One of the most common is those who wear a Cross Necklace, idolizing the Cross and not the One Who Bore The Cross for Your Sins.
Some of you Hold Onto Past things, Past Events and have Idolized them, putting those things before God, before your Brothers and Sisters who are Washed In The Blood Of Jesus! It can be anything such as a Bad Memory, a Bad Event, a Death, even an Anniversary. Anything that Changes Your Character to Conform or Bow Down To It!
“[[To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David.]] The fool hath said in his heart, [There is] no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: [there is] none that doeth good.”
Psalm 53:1
(Is For Today)
Some people say there is No God, those who are Atheists (belief that there is no god) and Agnostics (belief in a Higher Power, but Not God).
“9 The LORD'S voice crieth unto the city, and [the man of] wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it. 10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure [that is] abominable? 11 Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?”
Micah 6:9-11
(Is For Today)
Some of you are Cheaters, Deceitful in your daily actions. You Profess you are working 8 hours but you really only worked 5 hours. If you are Hired to do a Job for a certain amount of time and you do not, but say that you are, then you are a Liar, a Deceitful Cheater. If you say it takes you 40 hours to do a Job, but it really only took 20 hours, then again, you are a Liar, Deceitful Cheater. God expects us to be Honest in our Measure of Time and Measure of Work that we do.
“For the froward [is] abomination to the LORD: but his secret [is] with the righteous.”
Proverbs 3:32
(Is For Today)
“They that are of a froward heart [are] abomination to the LORD: but [such as are] upright in [their] way [are] his delight.”
Proverbs 11:20
(Is For Today)
To be Froward means, Habitually Disposed to Disobedience and Opposition to someone or something like a law. Someone that is being Willfully Contrary to someone or something and is not Easily Managed. People like this are those who are wanting to do Wrong, Backsliding, being Twisted, and Distorted. Those who Walk In Disobedience in one mannerism or another.
“16 These six [things] doth the LORD hate: yea, seven [are] an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness [that] speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.”
Proverbs 6:16-19
(Is For Today)
The Proud Look is someone who thinks they are better than anyone else, that they have achieved Greatness above others and want to be Recognized in such. They place themselves upon Pedestals to Glory before others. Sowing Discord is one who Stirs Up Contentions between Brothers and Sisters for Self-Gain for themselves or for a cause that is Deceitful or of Little Concern making it of Great Concern. The others in the list are self-explanatory.
“22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination. 23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it [is] confusion.”
Leviticus 18:22-23
(Is For Today)
“The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so [are] abomination unto the LORD thy God.”
Deuteronomy 22:5
(Is For Today)
“25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;”
Romans 1:25-28
(Is For Today)
Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed for their wickedness, especially for Homosexual Acts. You read about them in Genesis 19. But, you Brothers and Sisters have Not Withstood them, but have set Idly by allowing them to take Control, both in the World and In God’s House! Homosexuality is a Great Sin, one that God Hates and will Destroy all of those who Participate.
There are many other things that are Considered by God to be Sinful that are not called an Abomination, but are Sinful actions that many of you do, that you should not be doing.
“19 Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury: 20 Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it. 21 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the LORD thy God, thou shalt not slack to pay it: for the LORD thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee. 22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee. 23 That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; [even] a freewill offering, according as thou hast vowed unto the LORD thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.”
Deuteronomy 23:19-23
(Is For Today)
Many of you Charge Interest on Money or Charge a Fee for use of Personal Property. If a Brother or Sister needs to be Helped, then we should do so Without Gain or even at times Without Repayment, it is an Action Of Love For One Another. This is ONLY with Brothers and Sisters who have been Washed By The Blood Of Jesus! You can Charge the Heathen a Just Charge and Expect Repayment of a Loan.
“1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? 2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? 4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church. 5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren? 6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.”
1 Corinthians 6:1-6
(Is For Today)
We are to Judge All Manners Between Believers, no matter how large or small. We are not to allow the World to Judge in matters that deal with our Lives. The reason is we are to be Living Spiritual Lives, Governed by God, not Man. The Five Fold Ministry, the Offices that Jesus Appointed are to bring us into Unity, it is those who are Not In An Office, that Fear God, Walk as God would have them and have No Interest in a Matter that are to Judge a Matter. The Offices would Up Hold the Judgement whether it is Of God and according to The Holy Scriptures.
There will be more next week. Judge Yourselves Not By Yourselves, but according to What God Says, according to The Holy Scriptures.
Your Choice to Walk In The Flesh or According To God!!!
Amen and Amen!!!
