Of course, including the Spirit of Christ going into the Temple and chasing out those who were defiling it. We should see this same zeal in action. Judy wrote: Judy wrote: What about the side that lays down their life in love. That's the side I believe reaches the sin-sick, lonely, rejected. I've been reading Hubert Lindsey's book and this is how he ministered. He lived among the people, washed the feet of one of his hecklers when challenged and was available by telephone in time of emergency. The students grew to respect him because they knew he was genuine. Well, if you are reading Holy Hubert's book, then you should be able to get the inside scoop about what we are talking about. Hubert was the grandfather of all modern day street preachers. I do not hold a candle next to Hubert. Hubert so angered sinners that he was beat up, stabbed, shot about five different times, imprisoned over 100 times, etc. When the communists held rallies of 35,000 people, Hubert would walk up on the platform, take the microphone without invitation and take over the rally. If he was alive today, I have no doubt he would likewise do so with the homosexual rallies. As for Hubert's heart of love for the sinner, yes, we agree and try to walk in that same spirit. My phone number is always available and often I take inquisitors out to eat or go have private chats with them, or bring them to church, etc. While some students, especially the homosexual, are stirred up with hatred, others see that our love is genuine and respond to it. At the University of South Florida, there was a campus organization started by the students directly as a result of the open air preaching that we did there. I think that indicates positive response. David Miller wrote: When we stand up to that homosexual agenda and declare how harmful homosexuality is to society, we take away this cloak of respectability and reveal homosexuality for what it is from the eyes of a Holy God. Judy wrote: It's much better to hold up the light. That's what Hubert did. He held up God's standard, speaking of normal marriage and God's love between male and female to people on a campus where immorality was fast taking hold. Yes, this is what I mean by saying that we expose homosexuality. We don't just point out the wrong, but we point out how it perverts God's ordained plan of marriage. I generally teach not only on the sanctity of marriage, but on why God created gender to begin with. Of course, I also connect how promiscuous sexual relations and homosexuality violate this order of God. Judy wrote: There is a difference between condemnation and conviction. One is from the enemy and the other is from the Lord. The Scriptures teach that condemnation comes from the law. The devil doesn't condemn anyone, nor does he want to condemn anyone. He has tricked the churches with this false doctrine for many years now. It is repeated and repeated but never examined in the light of Scripture. People relate to it because nobody wants to be condemned. Nobody likes condemnation. Nevertheless, the Bible teaches that without the law, nobody was condemned, yet they still suffered from the penalty of sin, which was death. When the law came, then condemnation came. So condemnation comes not from the enemy, but from the law, and the law comes from God who is not our enemy. Judy wrote: David, all I know is that when I was out there - far away from God - I used to travel to work on a train that went by a billboard with John 3:16 on it and that billboard touched my heart more than any nut out there with a megaphone telling me that I was under condemnation and headed for hell. It would not surprise me if that billboard was put there by Bible Jim Webber or someone like him. They started the John 3:16 banners at the football games and continue to do it, having to evade police each time they do. Also, let me say that I was not reached by such methods, but I have reaped many people who were touched by it. One young man I worked with when I was a teenager believed upon Christ and was baptized. When I spoke to him of Holy Hubert Lindsey, a man I had just met just the year before, he tells me that he heard Hubert preach at a university in Louisiana just the year before. The message prepared the ground so that this young man would believe upon Christ as the Word of God took root in his heart. I could tell you all kinds of stories about how the confrontational approach to evangelism has caused sinners to break down and cry like a baby right there on the spot, and of others who were agitated with questions that caused them to come to Bible Studies. Even the atheists who are not ready to believe, invite us to debate them at their large meetings on campus. I remember going there and they had this huge stack of books ready to

It sounded like maybe you believe that we should be pushing Homosexual Marriage as a good and proper thing to do? Is that YOUR POSITION? If so, please come right out and say so and I would be glad to discuss it. My position is that God has ordained marriage, not man, and man has no authority to change it. To enact homosexual marriage is to elevate man's wisdom above God and to pervert the natural order than he created. The idea for homosexual marriage has been paved with the idea that there are no differences between men and women. That is another lie that we would need to deal with in our discussion. Men and women are different from each other, and this is an important acknowledgment if we are going to understand God's plan for marriage. God's plan for marriage can only exist between a man and a woman. Peace be with you.

RE: [TruthTalk] Did Lot preach to Sodom?
Judy wrote: From what I see around me I think that teaching is necessary but not to the exclusion of the other. Very true, but I hope you also realize that the other is limited by the hearts of the hearers. Take Gary's position toward me, for example. He views me as a false prophet and as a pretender. As long as his heart is set toward rejecting me, I could never bring any kind of ministry of deliverance or healing around him. Do you understand this principle? Judy wrote: ... but we should see the Spirit of Christ in action. The scriptures I read about the end time activity of Elijah was that of restoring the hearts of the fathers to the children. They (homosexuals) are already under a curse, we don't need to condemn them any further. But the hearts of the children have turned away from the hearts of the fathers in that they view homosexuality as normal as being black or Asian. To turn the hearts back to the correct viewpoint requires declaring the truth in opposition to their new philosophy. I might add that I do not view the Elijah Spirit to be in opposition to Christ. It is simply a side of Christ that comes into view more predominately as men turn to sin. The side of Christ ruling with a rod of iron is the Elijah spirit, but the side of Christ riding lowly upon a donkey is his side when he is accepted and praised as he ought to be. Judy wrote: I don't know about a cloak - their sin is public and flagrant. But their sin is represented as being no sin at all. In fact, not only is it no longer a crime to commit homosexual abominations, but laws are being passed that give the practice of homosexuality special rights and protection. This is what I mean by taking away their cloak for sin. Their cloak does not hide the fact that the sin exists, but it sugar coats it so that the unsuspecting public is deceived into thinking that homosexuality is normal, that people are born that way just as a person might be born with certain color eyes or hair. When we stand up to that homosexual agenda and declare how harmful homosexuality is to society, we take away this cloak of respectability and reveal homosexuality for what it is from the eyes of a Holy God. Judy wrote: there is a difference between condemnation and conviction. One is from the enemy and the other is from the Lord. I was taught this in the churches as well, but I think the Bible gives more than enough teaching to question this assumption. While there is an element of truth to the idea that the finger of conviction leads to repentance and good work while the hand of condemnation might lead to sorrowful depression and death, we should not shy away from ministry of the law simply because people become condemned. Second Corinthians 3:9 describes the ministry of the law as being a ministry of condemnation, not the ministry of conviction. Romans 4:15 says that the law works wrath. In the seventh chapter of Romans, Paul gets in the particulars of how the law works out its condemnation, and in the course of that, he clearly points out that the condemnation that comes from the law leads us to understand that the law is holy and good. It is the sin within man that is bad and has to go. Not the law. Therefore, when we see the ministry of condemnation that comes through ministering the law, we should not declare that such condemnation is evidence of this ministry being contrary to Christ. Rather, we should agree with the declarations of the law and show our support, allowing the resulting condemnation to lead people to repentance and to faith in Jesus Christ. For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me. Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. (Romans 7:9-13 KJV) Judy wrote: Since these people are strangers to the covenants of grace and many have not known love at all in their lives, I just believe Jesus' approach to be best and I like what Isaiah prophesied about Him: Behold my servant, whom I uphold, mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth. I have put my spirit upon him, he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street. A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench; he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. He shall not fail nor be discouraged till he have set judgment in the earth, and the isles shall wait for his law (Isaiah 42:2,3,4) What I am concerned that you do not grasp is that idea that Jesus could have done none of this kind of ministry except that there was

Dave Miller: The Pagan Wolf is drawing you into his circle. This is the standard tactic of the enemy. He first gets you to side with him against those who proclaim Christ on the streets. He causes you to believe that public preaching is for the most part a flesh ministry. He causes you to believe that he is a victim of circumstance, that he was born into a pagan family, so that is what he is. You think that if only he saw the peace and love in Christ he would come over, but the truth is that his sin is what separates him from God. The church is not some club that everyone is invited to join. The church is made up of holy ones, and only those who are willing to lose their lives are able to join. Most people won't make the cut, and Pagan Wolf is one of them, UNLESS, he repudiates his sinful and occult practices and repents of his sin. He can't do that until he first acknowledges them to be evil. Right now, he sees his vile ways as good. TPW: Dave, again you give me way too much credit. I already told you that such remarks towards my person were unbecoming of you and I will say it again. Unless you come to truly know my heart, then do yourself a favor and keep your own counsel on what I am and not capable of. Before you declare me the Lucifer's own, look at yourself and ask if you are any better with putting me on a pedestal of onyx, and declaring anyone who remotely agrees with me my bondsman.

But then from what I saw written by you so far, you need to be reminded of this...

For you see if that were to occur, The fruit I would become would be a rotten one. Under your rule, I couldn't be nothing more than that. As for feeling lost. I don't think I could ever feel lost.

He or she is ripping the veilfrom all that is private and delicate in oneself, andpulverizing it in an assembly line of selfish sensations. But marriage is the opposite. Marriage joins two people ina sacred bond. It demands that they make an exclusivecommitment to each other and thereby takes two discreteindividuals and turns them into kin. Few of us work as hard at the vocation of marriage as weshould. But marriage makes us better than we deserve to be.Even in the chores of daily life, married couples findthemselves, over the years, coming closer together, fusinginto one flesh. Married people who remain committed to eachother find that they reorganize and deepen each other'slives. They may eventually come to the point when they cansay to each other: "Love you? I am you." Today marriage is in crisis. Nearly half of all marriagesend in divorce. Worse, in some circles, marriage is noteven expected. Men and women shack up for a while, producechildren and then float off to shack up with someone else. Marriage is in crisis because marriage, which relies on aculture of fidelity, is now asked to survive in a cultureof contingency. Today, individual choice is held up as thehighest value: choice of lifestyles, choice of identities,choice of cellphone rate plans. Freedom is a wonderfulthing, but the culture of contingency means that themarriage bond, which is supposed to be a sacred vow tilldeath do us part, is now more likely to be seen as aneasily canceled contract. Men are more likely to want to trade up, when a youngertrophy wife comes along. Men and women are quicker to optout of marriages, even marriages that are not fatallyflawed, when their "needs" don't seem to be met at thatmoment. Still, even in this time of crisis, every human being inthe United States has the chance to move from the path ofcontingency to the path of marital fidelity - excepthomosexuals. Gays and lesbians are banned from marriage andforbidden to enter into this powerful and ennoblinginstitution. A gay or lesbian couple may love each other asdeeply as any two people, but when you meet a member ofsuch a couple at a party, he or she then introduces you toa "partner," a word that reeks of contingency. You would think that faced with this marriage crisis, weconservatives would do everything in our power to move asmany people as possible from the path of contingency to thepath of fidelity. But instead, many argue that gays must bebanished from matrimony because gay marriage would weakenall marriage. A marriage is between a man and a woman, theysay. It is women who domesticate men and make marriagework. Well, if women really domesticated men, heterosexualmarriage wouldn't be in crisis. In truth, it's moralcommitment, renewed every day through faithfulness, that"domesticates" all people. Some conservatives may have latched onto biologicaldeterminism (men are savages who need women to tame them)as a convenient way to oppose gay marriage. But in fact weare not animals whose lives are bounded by our flesh and byour gender. We're moral creatures with souls, endowed withthe ability to make covenants, such as the one Ruth madewith Naomi: "Where you go I will go, and where you stay Iwill stay. Your people will be my people and your God myGod. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried."The conservative course is not to banish gay people frommaking such commitments. It is to expect that they makesuch commitments. We shouldn't just allow gay marriage. Weshould insist on gay marriage. We should regard it asscandalous that two people could claim to love each otherand not want to sanctify their love with marriage andfidelity. When liberals argue for gay marriage, they make it soundlike a really good employee benefits plan. Or they frame itas a civil rights issue, like extending the right to vote. Marriage is not voting. It's going to be up toconservatives to make the important, moral case formarriage, including gay marriage. Not making it meansdrifting further into the culture of contingency, which,when it comes to intimate and sacred relations, is anabomination.http://www.nytimes.com/2003/11/22/opinion/22BROO.html?ex=1070521917ei=1en=81717fcd74f42d00Copyright 2003 The New York Times Company

RE: [TruthTalk] Did Lot preach to Sodom?
Judy wrote: If those in street ministry are unable to perform the Ministry of Jesus then they are out there on their own; we need to wait as He did, until we receive power from on high to meet the needs of the people. Hi Judy. There is certainly a truth about waiting on the Lord and trusting in Him and receiving power from on high before we go and minister unto others. Before I ever preached on the streets, I fasted 40 days as Jesus did. I would say that this qualifies as waiting on the Lord prior to ministry. Yes, I have experienced casting out devils and healing the sick. Sometimes I have had them run up to me like they did Jesus and ask me to deliver them from demons. But what I sense from you is that you have not yet entered into this kind of kingdom experience, yet you comment upon it rather authoritatively, using the Bible and your knowledge of Scripture to make your comments. Jesus said: If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. (John 7:17 KJV) Much will make more sense when you DO HIS WILL in all these things. When you become complete and whole in doing his will, the rest just falls right into place. Now the power of God that you desire in regards to healing the sick and casting out devils is dependent upon faith, not just the faith of the minister of God, but the faith of those being ministered unto. I readily acknowledge to you that in most cases, the power of God being manifest in this way in my public ministry is not nearly what Jesus himself manifested. I believe that this is because of faith and the time in which we live. Jesus himself had to lay his miracle ministry aside and stay with teaching only when the faith of the people did not allow it because of unbelief. Consider the following passages of Scripture: And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching. (Mark 6:5-6 KJV) Matthew says it this way: And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief. (Matthew 13:58 KJV) As the gospel message has spread far and wide and become common place, we experience much the same thing in a kind of historical age context that Jesus experienced in going to his hometown. People think they know about Jesus. People think they know who he is and what he is about. They lack faith in him. Therefore, Jesus is not able to do many mighty works among them, but he ends up sticking primarily with teaching. The Scriptures speak clearly that there is an apostasy in the last days, and that the love of many would wax cold (remember that faith works by love). Therefore, we expect more and more for there to be a falling away, for the miraculous ministry in public places to wane, and the prophetic ministry of judgment to become more prevalent. This is the Elijah spirit which was prophesied to come before the great and terrible day of the Lord. Therefore, my mindset is that the age of grace is drawing to a close. As this happens, there will be more and more testimony along the lines of that given by the two witnesses in Revelation 11. In other words, not all preaching will be just good news preaching, but prophetic warnings of the judgment of God. Such would not be harvesting messages, seeking to save the lost, but legal warnings and admonitions given by a just God. Such messages actually will torment the wicked, just as the two witnesses in Revelation 11 are said to have tormented those on the earth. ... these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. (Revelation 11:10 KJV) There is one other aspect to consider here in regards to public ministry, and that is the difference between sowing and reaping. The apostles were sent forth to reap where they had not sown. And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours. (John 4:37-38 KJV) Those who had sown did not have the miraculous ministry (for example, John the Baptist ministering in the Elijah spirit), whereas those who reaped did have the miraculous ministry. Many street preachers today primarily practice a sowing ministry. They sow the word of God, often ministering the law, and others will later reap (harvest) what they have sown. Understanding the diversity of Christ will help us not miss something God is doing just because it does not look exactly like what we are expecting. Judy wrote: They are already under a curse, we don't need to condemn them any further. I hope you understand that I do not condemn anyone. I only declare God's Word concerning the Truth. Those who are condemned are condemned by their own heart and by their own words. I certainly take away their cloak for sin, but I do not directly condemn them. This is a subtle but important

I wonder if Lot was one even ABLE to preach. Look at the testimony provided by Scripture... His willingness to have his daughters violated (yes...
