Daily Bread – September 15, 2022 (The Fifth Day – Genesis 1:20-23) Jude 3-4 – Beloved, having made all haste to write you concerning the common salvation, I have written to you out of an emergency to urge you to contend for the faith that was once and for all entrusted to the saints. For certain men sneaking in, of whom it was formerly written unto this judgment; ungodly, who pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master, God, and our Lord, Jesus Christ. The Danger Of Compromise Ultimately, one compromise with sin leads to another until one is totally taken over by the deceptive power of Satan. Their heart grows cold, their ears dull, and their conscience becomes seared. These people do not actually deny God and Christ Jesus verbally, as they believe they are the ones who really understand the mercy and grace of God, but they deny Him with their works (Titus 1:16). They fail to realize that the things they call “Christian liberties” are actually works of the demonic realm; and because they are practicing those works, they have no part or inheritance with Christ Jesus or His Kingdom (Ephesians 4:19; 1 Peter 4:3; 2 Peter 2:2,7,18; Romans 13:13; and 2 Corinthians 12:21; Galatians 5:19-21; Mark 7:21-23). These liars will go so far as to say that Jesus turned the water into an intoxicating beverage and turn what was a holy gathering into a decadent Grecian party wherein everyone is drunk. Such things did not exist in the community of the Jews that Jesus and His mother were associated with in their time – nor even until this day! It is our prayer and cry that you will harken to the voice of the Lord and come and follow Jesus Who has modeled for us how we are to live in all holiness and purity before the Lord. Blessings, Pastor Mark Spitsbergen
