and I just pray that you would use it in the hearts and lives of everyone who listens to this sermon.
And in Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
Now I preach several types of sermons. I try to not be in some kind of a rut where I'm just preaching the same type of sermon over and over again.
I preach sermons on sin. I preach sermons about doctrine, like tonight's going to be a very doctrinal sermon about eternal security.
I preach sermons about encouraging, inspirational type sermons.
And then I also preach sermons like this morning's sermon on issues.
Now these are maybe a lot less often that I preach this kind of sermon, but it's an important type of sermon to preach.
And a lot of preachers don't want to preach on issues because issues divide people.
But that's just exactly what God said would happen when you preach the Bible.
He said, I've come, he said, think not that I've come to send peace on earth.
He said, I've come to set a man at variance against his father.
And maybe that's not very popular these days, but the Bible says that the word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword.
And it's piercing to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
See, this Bible can tell the intents of your heart, and it'll convict you and tell you, look, you're wrong.
That's what it does. That's what it means, it's a discerner of the thoughts and intents of your heart.
You may look good on the outside, you may look righteous, and everybody approves and agrees with what you're doing,
but the Bible will just go right to your heart and say, you're not right with God.
And that's what it does, and that's why the Bible's so quick and powerful.
But let me start out by reading something that was in the news this week.
Like I said, this is an issue-type sermon. Yes, I am preaching an issue-oriented type sermon.
And I'm going to read this for you. This is in the news, this is off CNN's news site.
And this was in the news July 20th. That was Thursday, I believe.
And so let me read this for you.
Bush vetoes embryonic stem cell bill. Okay?
Anybody hear about this? Put up your hand if you heard about it.
This is the first time that President Bush, in his five and a half years in office, you thought the guy just couldn't say no to anybody.
But he finally vetoed his first piece of legislation.
This week, let me just read this for you, and then I'll get into this. I'm going to read this by way of introduction.
President Bush used his veto power Wednesday, for the first time since taking office five and a half years ago,
saying that an embryonic stem cell research bill, quote, crossed a moral boundary.
The bill which the Senate passed Tuesday, 63 to 37, would have loosened the restrictions on federal funding for stem cell research.
House Republican leaders tried Wednesday evening to override the veto, but that vote was 235 to 193,
short of the necessary two-thirds majority.
The bills would support the taking of innocent human life in hope of finding medical benefit for others.
This is Bush being quoted.
Bush said Wednesday afternoon,
It crosses a moral boundary that our decent society needs to respect, so I vetoed it.
Attending the White House event were a group of families with children who were born from adopted frozen embryos
that had been left unused at fertility clinics.
These boys and girls are not spare parts, he said of the children in the audience.
They remind us of what is lost when embryos are destroyed in the name of research.
They remind us that we all begin our lives as a small collection of cells.
The measure, which the House of Representatives passed in May 2005,
allows couples who have had embryos frozen for fertility treatments to donate them to researchers
rather than let them be destroyed.
Bush said if this bill were to become law, American taxpayers would for the first time in history
be compelled to fund the deliberate destruction of human embryos, and I'm not going to allow it.
In August 2001, Bush announced that his administration would allow federal funding only for research
on about 60 stem cell lines that existed at the time.
Researchers have since found that many of those lines are contaminated and unusable for research.
Now that sounds, boy, that sounds like Bush is really taking a stand, doesn't it?
It sounds like he's right?
Let me show you how deceptive the news is.
I'm going to show you now that what I just read to you is totally as far from reality as possible.
I just read you something out of La La Land.
I just read you something that's a fairy tale.
If you were listening carefully, you might have noticed some of the things that were said.
First of all, they're not making it illegal to do stem cell research.
They're not making it illegal to destroy the embryos.
All they're doing is saying that tax dollars will not go to pay for it, number one.
Number two, they're not even saying, think about this.
You have to be able to read between the lines.
You have to be able to discern what's right and wrong from the Bible.
Look, we're talking about embryos that are being put in the trash can in fertility clinics
all over America every day right now as we speak through the use of IVF.
Now let me explain to you what IVF is, in vitro fertilization.
Anybody ever heard of that before?
In vitro fertilization.
Vetro means like a petri dish as opposed to in utero, which is talking about in a mother's womb.
Now in vitro fertilization, here's what it involves.
And I'm going to explain to you why this story is so ridiculous and why it's such a joke.
In vitro fertilization involves a woman going in.
She supposedly can't have kids or whatever the case may be.
She goes into the clinic.
They stimulate her with hormones that will make her produce an abnormally high amount of eggs.
She'll produce 50 eggs in one month.
Then they go in and surgically extract these eggs.
And what they do is they put them in a petri dish.
These are test tube babies.
I mean, they put them in a petri dish on the counter.
Then they have a man who donates his seed.
I'll just put it that way for the sake of children.
He donates his seed, and they take the seed, and they put it all over these eggs, and they watch them.
Now, out of the 50 eggs that are there, or however many they put down there,
approximately 25 to 40 will then fertilize and become alive and begin to multiply.
Now, does life begin at conception?
Absolutely, I'm going to prove that in a few minutes.
But they multiply.
They become a human being.
They become a human embryo on the table.
Here's what they do.
They watch them for five more days.
While they watch them, some of them develop normally.
Out of 50, 60, about 25 or 40 were fertilized.
Out of those 25 to 40, most of them are deformed.
They're mutilated because it's just not designed to be done on the kitchen counter.
It's designed to be done in the womb by God.
And so most of them come out deformed, just horrible things, just gimping out on the table.
And then there are several that die right there on the table.
And then there are several that just develop for a while and just stop.
So here's what they do.
Out of that first batch, statistically, five or six of them will actually begin to grow
and become somewhat of a healthy, normal specimen.
Well, immediately they take the rest of them and they dump them in the trash can.
I mean, they flush them down the toilet like they would flush down their own human waste in the bathroom.
They take a human life created by God and they flush it down the toilet.
Now, they just committed murder to the tune of about 20 murders right there
before we've even gotten very far into the process.
Now we have five or six of these embryos.
Here's what they do.
They take them and they only inject maybe two into the mother
because she doesn't want to end up with quintuplets by mistake.
So they inject a few of them into the mother.
The rest of them they freeze and put on ice.
Well, most of the time people have to do this several times in order for it to work
because one out of six of these will survive even after they make it through the initial cut
of which ones die on the table or deform.
Oh, this one's a little retarded.
This one's a little deformed.
Let's throw it in the trash can.
It's not perfect.
It's not a perfect human specimen.
It's got problems.
Let's just kill it.
Let's just kill it now so we don't have to mess with it later in life.
And so they take the six premium survival of the fittest best ones
and they implant them into the mother and only one of those six is probably going to survive.
Oh, we have the ones that they kept.
Any extras that they don't want to implant, let's say they want to implant two at a time,
then the rest go into the freezer for later use.
Now, let me explain to you what this bill was.
And you could have gotten it from reading this.
You could have got the information, but the way that they word things is so confusing
you wouldn't even really see it unless you look at it with a microscope.
This is what this whole bill is about.
Right now, people can go to a fertility clinic and have all these embryos created,
put them on ice, inject some into the mother.
Well, then they have their kid, right?
And here's what they decide.
I don't want any more kids.
I've had enough.
So the four that are in the freezer, throw those away, please.
And they throw them away.
It's totally legal.
It's totally fine.
It's okay.
Just throw them in the trash.
No big deal.
This bill on stem cell was saying that we're going to give people the option
and before I even say this, I want to say I'm totally against all stem cell research.
Let me just put it that way so you don't misunderstand what I'm about to say.
I'm 100% against it.
It's perverted as hell.
That's all I'm going to say about that.
But I don't want you to misunderstand this, but this bill is about giving people an option
that instead of just throwing them in the trash, which is what they were going to do,
they can say, I want to give it to stem cell research as an alternative.
I'm going to give it to stem cell instead of dumping it in the trash.
Either way, the thing's going to die.
So Bush said, no, we can't do it.
It costs a moral boundary.
Let me read you these quotes.
This bill would support the taking of innocent human life.
So let me ask you something.
Does George Bush believe that that thing on the kitchen counter that's going into the freezer is alive?
Yeah, he said it is.
Look, this bill would support the taking of innocent human life.
So he just said it's alive.
He just said that if you do stem cell research on it, you're taking life.
He just said you just killed a human life.
So he must believe it's alive.
He's saying it is.
I don't know if he really believes that.
That's what he's saying.
Listen to this quote from Bush.
If this bill were to become law, American taxpayers would for the first time in our
history be compelled to fund the deliberate destruction of human embryos.
Is he recognizing it as human?
He's recognizing this little embryo, this little conceptus, as they call it, this little
blastocyst, he is acknowledging that it's a human being.
But yet he's not making it illegal to kill the thing.
You can kill thousands of them.
There's thousands of millions of them being killed right now.
But he's just saying you can't do stem cell research on it.
But see, here's the thing.
Probably every conservative in America probably thinks that he just put an end to some kind
of a killing.
Look, the decision was made to kill them before it even got to this point.
And as always, the whole thing I'm trying to illustrate with that is that the world
is just always so far off the mark.
They're always just so far from hitting the actual issue.
They never lay the axe to the root of the tree, as John the Baptist said.
They always just pluck leaves off here and there.
Yeah, kill them all you want, but just don't research on them.
And I'm against the research, don't get me wrong.
But what needs to be done is lay the axe to the root of the tree.
Stem cell research is not the issue.
The issue is, is in vitro fertilization right or wrong?
And so I'm going to preach to you a sermon.
That was the introduction.
I'm going to preach to you a sermon this morning called The Seven Sins of IVF.
The Seven Sins of IVF.
And I'm going to list for you the seven wicked, ungodly sins that are committed when IVF takes place.
I'm talking about in vitro fertilization.
I'm talking about a woman going down to the fertility clinic and having test tube babies
made on the kitchen counter, injected in her body, and giving birth to these test tube babies.
Sin number one, murder.
Boy, that's obvious, isn't it?
The first sin, the first sin that's committed in this vile act of IVF is murder.
Exodus 20-13 reads, thou shalt not kill, period.
Okay?
There's no qualifying factor.
There's no kind of a case where it would be okay to murder human life.
It says, thou shalt not kill, period.
And by the way, Jesus quotes that verse from the New Testament in the book of Matthew.
He says, thou shalt do no mercy.
He says, look, I'm talking about murder.
Thou shalt do no murder.
And murder is never permissible.
It's never right at all.
Now, let me prove something to you quickly.
And I don't want to repeat things that I've preached in other sermons.
You can get the tape on my sermon, Birth Control in Light of the Bible.
It has all this.
It goes way more into detail about how proving the life begins at conception.
Let me just show you a quick thing.
I want you to know this.
Look at Isaiah chapter seven.
Isaiah chapter number seven.
I'm just going to touch on this because I don't want to belabor this for sake of the
people that were here for the first sermon.
I don't want them to have to listen to the same things over and over again.
I want to get into the new material, the message.
Isaiah chapter seven, verse 14.
Look at this familiar verse.
Therefore, the Lord himself shall give you a sign.
Behold, a virgin shall, see the next word, conceive.
A virgin shall conceive and bear a son and shall call his name Immanuel.
Now, flip over to the book of Matthew chapter one.
Again, the regulars have seen this before, but I want you to see it again so you have
it in your mind during the message.
Matthew chapter one.
We just saw Isaiah seven, 14 said, a virgin shall conceive.
Now, let's look at the quote into the New Testament.
The Bible reads in verse 21, and she shall bring forth a son and thou shall call his
name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Now, all this was done that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet.
Here's the quote.
Behold, a virgin shall be with child.
So, if God knows how to quote himself, which I think he does, if God knows how to write
a Bible that doesn't contradict itself, which I know he does, the Bible says that a virgin
shall conceive is the same as a virgin being with child, because conception equals a child,
period.
Now, that should be the end of the story right there.
Okay, Hosea 9-11.
You don't have to turn there, but the Bible talks about from the birth, from the womb,
from the womb, and from the conception.
Those are the three stages of infant development according to God, and he says, he calls it
a child in the next verse.
That's Hosea 9-11 if you want to look that up later.
And so, we could belabor that, and I preached on it in that other sermon that I mentioned
about birth control, but look, conception is the beginning of life.
Conception is where God says that's a child, period.
Now, look, there's another attack that's going on on the word conception.
You can look in very modern dictionaries, they would have to come out in the last couple
of years, and they're starting to give an alternate definition of conception.
They're starting to say it either means fertilization, that's where the sperm and the egg come together,
or that it could also mean implantation, which takes place, if you know science, seven to
14 days later.
Seven to 14 days after fertilization, the egg travels down the fallopian tube and implants
in the lining of the uterus of the mother, and that's where it begins to attach to the
mother and be fed from the mother's blood supply and so forth.
Now, that's a lie, and I can prove it to you right now.
What does conception mean?
Does it mean fertilization, or does it mean implantation seven to 14 days later?
Well, the Bible, of course, has all the answers, my friend.
The Bible, see, look, I'm going to read for you the scripture that we read when we started
out, Psalm 100.
Let me show you why this is the perfect scripture for this sermon.
Look at verse three.
Know ye that the Lord, he is God.
It is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves.
We are his people.
Look at verse number five.
For the Lord is good, his mercy is everlasting, and his truth endureth to all generations.
See, his truth, and he said, by word is truth, his truth endures to all generations.
I mean, good night.
We don't need any other information besides what's in this book, and this book has the
truth about what conception is, of course.
Well, you'll notice a phrase, and I'm blowing past this because there's so much in the message,
but you'll notice a phrase throughout the Bible five or six times, conceive seed.
Does that sound familiar?
And the woman conceived seed.
She conceived seed.
Now, let me ask you something.
If a woman is conceiving seven to 14 days after intercourse with her husband, then where's
the seed, man?
No, it says, conceive seed.
Conceive the seed is what's involved.
The seed's gone days later.
And so, conception takes place when the seed hits the egg in the woman.
That's conception, my friend, and that's what the Bible says.
Take your stupid science book and throw it out the window.
I don't want to hear it.
I want to hear what the Bible says, and the Bible says, conceive seed.
He says, conceive as a child.
So, look, if you believe the Bible, then those 25 to 35 homicides that are taking place on
the table, just in the very first step of IVF, you must believe that it's murder, because
it's 25 conceived seeds right there, beginning to multiply.
Oh, they're handicapped.
Let's throw them in the trash.
And you've mocked my words.
As this wicked-as-hell America gets worse and worse and worse, pretty soon they're going
to do it with adults.
They'll do it with a newborn baby.
Oh, this newborn baby's deformed.
It's handicapped.
Let's just throw it in the trash.
If they'll do it when it's unborn, the next step, they'll do it to elderly people.
It's called euthanasia.
Oh, this person's old.
They can't take care of themselves.
Let's just put them out of their misery.
It's no respect for human life, is what it is.
And they'll just throw out the handicapped.
Throw out.
I remember in John chapter 9, Jesus Christ walking along, he comes upon a lame man, a
man that was lame from his mother's womb.
He was handicapped.
He had legs that would not function.
And his disciples asked him, he said, why is this man lame?
Was it he that had sinned that made him lame, or was his parents that sinned?
He said it wasn't his parents that sinned, it wasn't him that sinned.
It says he was lame for the glory of God.
And if he's lame for the glory of God, then maybe God wants there to be somebody that's
a little handicapped.
Maybe God wants somebody to be that's not just perfect.
Maybe God doesn't want everybody, just only the way that society wants them.
He said, I make all things that I say is very good.
Well, I make it.
And don't mess with God's creation.
You don't know what God's doing.
You're tampering with what God's planned.
Throwing babies in the garbage can.
That's wicked.
And I don't care if it's one day old or one minute old, or next thing it'll be 20 years
old, next thing it'll be 80 years old.
It doesn't matter.
It's a life.
And God said, I kill, I make alive.
That's not your job.
He said, thou shalt not kill.
He said, vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord.
He said, I'm the one who kills and makes alive.
And if you're allowed to kill somebody, I'll tell you when you're allowed to kill somebody.
It's called the death penalty.
And I'll tell you when you're allowed to do it.
Take it into your own hands to kill innocent human life.
So number one, of course, the obvious sin of IVF is the sin of murder.
Now, people will often say, well, you know, God said, I kill and I make alive.
So hey, if they die out on the kitchen table, if they die when we implant them unnaturally
into the mother, hey, God let them die.
If God lets one survive, God decided which one survives.
OK, look, let's put the logic of that.
Let's say I took a newborn baby and I laid it out in the snow.
Maybe it'll survive.
I don't know.
I mean, maybe it'll survive.
And if it dies, then God let it die.
Now, is that stupidity?
What if I put it outside today in the heat of Arizona?
My car said it was 107 degrees.
I don't know if that's accurate.
But what if I just laid a newborn baby out in the 107 degrees or line up 40 of them?
Line up 40 babies.
Let's take 40 newborn babies and lay them out on the lawn right now in Arizona in July.
And let's see.
Well, I'm sure a couple of them might survive, right?
I'm sure one or two of them might make it.
Does that make it OK?
No, it's murder, my friend.
It's wicked.
It's ungodly.
It's sinful.
And so the first sin is the obvious sin of murder.
But number two, the second of the seven grievous sins of IVF, and this is the most wicked one.
I'll be honest with you.
You say, murder?
Good night.
What could be more ungodly than murder?
I'll tell you what could be more ungodly than murder.
And let's ask God what's more ungodly than murder.
Number two, perverting nature.
The sin of perverting nature.
Let me read this for you.
There be three things which are too wonderful for me.
This is Proverbs 30.
If for, which I know not.
He says there are four things that are just wonderful beyond my imagination.
The way of an eagle in the air, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid.
OK, this is what we're talking about.
We're talking about God's wonderful, marvelous creation that the Bible says here mankind doesn't even quite understand.
The act between a man and a woman within marriage.
And he says that godly, righteous union that takes place between a man and a woman, which is one of those wonderful things.
He says it's more wonderful than an eagle flying through the air.
It's more wonderful than a serpent upon a rock than a ship in the midst of the sea.
And he takes away that wonderful act that God created to produce life.
And God says, I've ordained this union between a man and a woman to produce life into this world.
And you just bypass it completely and just say, no, let's just get in our cars.
Let's drive to some perverted, filthy animal doctor's office.
Let's have him dump little vials around and kill and make alive and play God.
And let's tamper with it.
And no intercourse between a man and a woman.
That's why the lesbians are the ones getting IVF now.
I just saw it in the news a week before last.
It sucks in the news every week.
Lesbians getting IVF, creating their own little babies to molest and defile.
They're all stinking life.
And yes, get the sermon from a couple weeks ago on sodomites and you'll see that that's what they're all about.
I would venture to say to you that the sin of perverting nature is a more wicked sin than that of murder.
You say, well, how do you know that, Pastor Anderson?
Think about the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt and they came into Canaan's land.
What did God tell them to do?
He said, I want you to destroy everything that breathes.
He said, man, woman, child, infant, suckling.
And you say, what?
And when I read that, it makes my hair sound like, good night, God.
You want us to kill man, woman, child, infant, suckling?
You wanted the children of Israel to do that to the Canaanites?
But you don't understand. Read Leviticus 18 and 20 and God will describe for you what kind of acts they were doing in those chapters.
He lists off just the most filthy, wicked sins imaginable.
He says, all these things have the people of the land which were before you committed.
He says, therefore, I abhorred them.
He says, I hated them.
He said, the earth itself wants to just throw up and spew them out of the land.
He says, they've done everything that I just listed to you.
Because you're reading it and you're thinking, good night, nobody does this stuff.
You're reading Leviticus 18 and 20 and he says, no, they did all of it.
And so God says they perverted nature so much.
They've done so much filthy animal fornication and immorality and going after strange flesh and pedophilia and bestiality.
He said, just kill everything that breathes.
Just get rid of this abomination out of my sight.
That's what God did when he destroyed the world with the flood.
He killed everything.
That's what God did when he destroyed Solomon and Gomorrah.
He killed everything.
Because God just had to rid the earth of the filthy abomination.
Now look, David committed murder.
Moses committed murder.
God didn't have the same reaction toward those men.
Now they were ungodly for doing that and they paid a great price for that.
Moses wasted 40 years of his life because he committed murder.
David had four of his children go to the devil and die.
And you know what?
They didn't get off the hook, but I'm going to tell you something.
God didn't react that way toward Moses as he did toward the land of Canaan.
And God didn't react the way he did toward the city of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Because he says, look, when you cross certain lines of perverting nature,
he says, I cannot tolerate it.
I will destroy it.
He says it's an abomination.
I can't stand it.
It's a stench in my nostrils.
You see, what's the great sin of homosexuality?
I mean, we know that it's a sin because God says it's a sin,
but why does God say that it's so disgusting in his eyes?
Two words.
He says in Romans chapter one, they do that which is against nature.
He says what they're doing is against nature.
And when you go against nature, you're crossing a line with God.
And God says you pushed it too far.
So I venture to say to you that the second sin of IVF is worse than the first, murder.
And then the second even more wicked sin of perverting nature.
I heard somebody say recently IVF is as bad as abortion.
Somebody said IVF is as bad as abortion.
Look, man, IVF is a lot worse than abortion.
Abortion, you're killing one life.
IVF, you're killing 20 to 30 lives each time you do it.
And you're also perverting nature, which God hates even more.
Let me read this verse for you.
I usually turn to the scriptures, but there's so much information,
you're only going to get like half the message as it is.
And so I want to hit these points.
Acts 13, 10, and said, this is Paul speaking,
O full of subtlety.
This is the first time Paul spoke after his name was changed from Saul to Paul.
This is the first words out of his mouth.
And said, O full of all subtlety and all mischief,
thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness,
wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord.
See, God's ways are the right ways,
and man, the children of the devil of this world,
want to pervert God's right ways.
And this man who was perverting God's right ways in the story
was struck with blindness for the rest of his life.
Because God said, no, you will not be a pervert in my presence.
And Paul struck him with blindness, Acts 13, verse 10.
Hey, IVF doctor, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
Hey, Christian who goes out and gets IVF,
will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
Hey, listen, snowflake adoption and these Christian agencies who sponsor this,
will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
See, let me give you the statistics.
Approximately, you say, why are you preaching on this?
This is some rare thing.
Test tube babies, who ever heard of such a thing?
Well, 2.3 million couples will go to a clinic this year
to discuss the option of having IVF.
2.3 million.
Approximately 27,000 IVF procedures are done each year in this country.
Did you hear that?
27,000 times this happens.
Oh, a horse said, oh, I killed IVF.
Look, 27,000 times.
They killed multiple, I mean, a huge amount of babies.
Two percent of babies born in the Western world today were conceived with IVF.
Is that bizarre?
Two percent of babies that are born today
will have been conceived in a laboratory somewhere in a test tube.
I know an independent fundamental Baptist pastor,
and I've talked to this man personally,
who counseled with a couple in his church and told them that IVF was fine
and to go ahead and do it.
Independent, fundamental,
preaches the King James Bible and said,
go right ahead, there's nothing in the world wrong with it.
You have my blessing.
You say, why are you preaching on this?
That's why I'm preaching on this.
Tell me that it's not something I need to be preaching on.
I'm going to preach on it because it's in the Bible.
I'm going to preach on it because the world is jamming it down my throat
every time I get on the internet and see the news pop up.
I'm going to tell you about it because a man of God
who's not a man of God, who calls himself a man of God,
who's a sissy and a wimp and he won't stand up to people,
is telling people that mass murder is fine.
So I'm going to get up and tell him it's not fine.
And so I'm going to preach against it.
That's why I'm preaching against it, because it's so prevalent.
Because it's something that we're dealing with every day.
Number two is the perverting of nature.
But number three, what's the third great sin of IVF?
Remember the seven sins of IVF?
The first one is murder.
The second one is perverting nature.
The third one is stealing.
You're committing the sin of stealing.
Let me read this for you, Psalm 127-3.
Low children are in heritage of the Lord,
and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Well, think about what that's saying.
God is saying, look, children are something that I give you,
my heritage to you.
And he says, it's my reward to you.
He says, I'm rewarding you with children.
Now, can you imagine?
God's ready to reward you with something.
I mean, he says, I want to give you something.
I want to give you this gift.
I want to give you this special heritage.
I want to give you a reward.
I want to give something to you.
And you know what?
You're sitting there looking at your wife saying,
where's my reward?
God?
Huh, God?
I've been married.
And you know what?
These people don't wait 20 years like Isaac and Rebecca
waited 20 years between the time he was 40 years old
to the time he was 60 years old to have Jacob and Esau's
children.
They don't even have faith in God for 20 years.
It's like two years.
It's like one year.
It's like a year and a half.
The people that I know personally
that have done it, two years.
Right now, I've got an idea.
And they're, oh, hey, God, two years ago, I'm like,
where's my reward, God?
Hey, God, where's my reward?
Huh?
Where's my blessing?
You owe me a living, remember, God?
Remember you owe me a reward?
Oh, it's been two years.
You won't give it to me?
Then I'm going to come in and I'm going to throw you
out of your throne, God.
And I'm going to sit out in the throne of God himself.
And I'm going to reward myself.
And I'm going to steal from you, God.
I'm going to dethrone you.
I'm going to say, like Satan did in Isaiah 14, 12,
I will be like the Most High.
I will be like God.
I'm going to create human life.
And I'm going to kill in the process.
And I'm going to steal from God.
Will a man rob God?
Will a man rob God, it says in Malachi 3.10.
And so, like, these preachers, hey, hey,
sickified Baptist preacher that preaches
on tithing every week because he wants
more money for your fancy car, hey,
sickified little sissy preacher, why don't you
preach on the man who's robbing God when he takes
the cows and rips them out of the hand of God and says,
I want to reward myself, God, thank you.
I don't need you, God.
I don't need you to give me something.
I'm going to steal it from you.
Why don't you take a break from your 21-week series
on tithing and preach on that for a while, sir?
And so it's a wicked sin to steal from God,
to reward yourself, to take what's not yours from God.
God says, I open the womb.
And that leads me right into the fourth sin of IVF.
Number one is murder.
Number two, perverting nature.
Number three, stealing from God.
And number four is putting yourself in the place of God.
Let me read this for you.
Genesis 29, 31 says this.
And when the Lord saw that Leah was hated,
he opened her womb.
But Rachel was barren.
So here's God making a decision.
He sees a man, Jacob.
He has two wives, Leah and Rachel.
He sees that Jacob hates his wife Leah
and loves his wife Rachel.
He didn't even want to marry Leah.
She was forced upon him.
And so God says, you know, I'm going to bless Leah
because I feel sorry for her.
And so what I'm going to do is I'm going to open her womb.
See how God's just in control of this whole thing?
He says, I'm going to open her womb
and Rachel's going to be barren.
Now listen to Jacob's response in chapter 30 of Genesis.
Verse number two.
Verse number one, Rachel says to Jacob, she says,
give me children or else I die.
And listen to his angry response.
And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel.
This is Genesis 30, verse two.
And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel.
And he said, am I in God's stead
who hath withheld thee from thee the fruit of the womb?
He says, am I in the place of God?
Good night.
No, Rachel, we're not going to the IVF clinic
because I'm not in the place of God
who has withheld you from having children.
That's God that did that.
And no, I will not be like Satan and take the place of God.
That was the sin of Satan.
He said, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God.
I will ascend into the sides of the north.
I will be like the Most High.
That's what Satan was.
He lifted himself up to the level of God.
And Jacob said no.
Jacob, whose name was later changed to Israel,
who is the prince with God,
who is one of the greatest men who ever lived,
who is a man who the children of Israel is named after him.
That great man said, no, I'm not in the place of God.
God withheld you from having children.
Deal with it.
And then look a little later.
And let me read this for you.
Verse 22 of the same chapter.
And God remembered Rachel and God hearkened to her
and opened her womb.
Now, how did God hearken to Rachel
unless she was asking him?
Right?
I mean, she's obviously begging God for a child
and he hearkened to her.
He hearkened to her.
Did you know?
Prove me wrong about this, I dare you.
Show me one woman in the entire Bible who couldn't have kids.
Show me one.
Sarah.
What?
Are you talking about Isaac?
Rachel.
Oh, are you talking about Benjamin and Joseph?
Hannah.
Oh, are you talking about Samuel and the five other children?
No.
See, every woman in the Bible who couldn't have kids
prayed and God opened her womb.
Every single time.
Show me.
Show me the woman that couldn't have kids
and it's not in there.
And so putting yourself in the place of God
is a good way to be more like Esau than Jacob.
See, Jacob's brother Esau, who was kind of the
God puts these two men as a contrast,
Jacob and Esau, twin brothers.
Jacob said, I'm not in the place of God.
God will tell you from having children,
deal with it.
Esau was a profane person and a forticator,
the Bible says in Hebrews.
And so here's a guy who's a pervert.
So we got the pervert and we got the guy who says,
no, I'm not in the place of God.
On and on, I'm going to skip some of these,
but there's a whole bunch of verses here
just about God opening and closing the womb,
just many times.
But get the Sermon on Birth Control
and the Night of the Bible and you'll get that.
Think about this.
Here's a whole other aspect.
Number one was murder.
Number two, perverting nature.
Number three, stealing.
Number four, putting yourself in the place of God.
Here's a whole other aspect of this.
I'm going to read you another scientific article
here that I have.
Sunday Star Times, July 10th, 2005.
IVF babies, taller and slimmer, research shows.
You want to talk about playing God?
Now think about this.
There's a correlation in this world
between several things.
Number one, evolution.
Number two, the devil saying I'm going to be like God.
Number three, Mormonism, which says eventually
you become your own god of your own planet.
Number four, I mean you go down the list.
You see the pattern?
Charles Darwin saying we evolved from
a single-celled organism until we're like God.
Think about Buddhism.
Buddhism says that you're reincarnated
and reincarnated and reincarnated.
Here's the difference between Hinduism and Buddhism.
Hinduism and Buddhism are both about reincarnation.
Buddhism says that you can eventually reach
a state of nirvana where you're no longer being reincarnated.
You are like God.
You are God-like at that point.
And so what do all these have in common?
Becoming like God.
See, that's the whole common denominator of Satan's plan.
That's Satan's religion.
It's a religion of evolution that says
you yourself can be like God.
You say, show me that in the Bible.
Okay, Genesis chapter three.
He says if you eat this fruit,
you'll be like gods, knowing good and evil.
Remember that?
That's what he's about.
He says you can be God.
You can be like God.
Well, think about Adolph Hitler.
You want to talk about IVF?
Reason with me.
You put 50 eggs down, 25 to 40 of them get fertilized.
Those are probably the 25 to 40 best ones, right?
I mean, they're probably the healthiest.
Then out of those 25 to 40,
in just the extreme environment of being outside the womb,
only five or six of those survive.
Those are the strongest, healthiest ones.
And we even told you earlier how they actually look
and if one looks handicapped or it's not developing right,
they'll throw it away.
And then, so you've gone from 50,
you've got the cut down to like 25.
Then the cut's further to the five that survive.
Then you take the five that survive
and implant them into the mother and one out of six dies.
One out of six lives and the other five out of six dies.
So every time you have an IVF baby,
you're getting the best of 50.
Think about this.
You're getting the strongest, most resilient of 50.
It'd be like if you had 50 kids, naturally,
and then you looked at those 50 kids and said,
this is the strongest, smartest, most talented one.
That's every IVF baby.
So, scientific research shows that IVF babies
are at least four centimeters taller than other children,
on average, because they're the best.
They're the strongest.
Girls, especially, were even taller and more slim.
This is what the doctor says.
Endocrinologist Harriet Miles said,
this is in the same article in the newspaper,
this is what this doctor said.
You, and I'm quoting this exactly,
you can create these babies
and they look completely normal and they're fine.
Did you hear that?
You can create these babies.
Not in the beginning God created all,
the heaven and the earth.
Not all things were made by him
and without him was not anything made that was made.
You can be the creator.
You can create these babies
and they look completely normal and they're fine.
IVF children also have higher levels
of high density lipoprotein, known as good cholesterol,
and they have this lower overall cholesterol.
Are you listening to this?
So what are they doing?
It sounds to me like Adolf Hitler.
Remember the master race?
Remember the Third Reich?
He said, I'm going to create the master race.
I'm going to take out people that are weak,
people that are racist that I don't like,
people that are not good looking,
people that are not strong.
And what did he do?
He literally took big, burly, blonde haired,
blue eyed men and took the tallest women that he could find
because either women was more of the factor
because there's a lot of tall men,
but tall women is pretty rare.
He'd find these tall, strong women,
blonde haired, blue eyed Olga,
and he takes Olga and Olaf
and he literally bred human beings.
I mean just strangers with each other.
I mean that's a fact.
Go get a history book.
Adolf Hitler just bred human beings.
He said, you and you are going to procreate
and create offspring because I'm creating the master race.
That's why he exterminated the Jews.
That's why he exterminated the whole groups of people.
He felt like they were inferior.
And so he exterminated the inferior,
sounds like IVF,
and he just breathed the best and the brightest
to create a master race.
They're trying to do evolution.
They're trying to evolve the human race.
And that's where it goes.
Look at Genesis chapter six.
Flip in your Bible to Genesis chapter six.
I want you to see this.
Because look, this has been going on
all throughout history.
It's going on right now with IVF
and now they're having these sperm banks
where women can go and look through a catalog.
Hey, this guy went to Harvard.
This guy's six foot, you know, five inches tall.
This guy's got blonde hair and blue eyes
and he's a good looking guy and he's smart,
he's talented, and they say,
you can use his seed
and you can have a child that's going to be successful.
And this is evolving the human race in their mind
because they're taking,
let's get rid of all the gimps and the handicaps
and the poor and the maim and the halt and the blind.
The people that God said,
he says, yours is the kingdom of God.
Those people, let's throw them out.
Let's throw them in the trash
and let's just breed human beings in a laboratory.
And let's take the 49 that are not the strongest
and let's flush them down the toilet
and let's take the one that's going to be like God.
Look at Genesis chapter six.
And I can show you this throughout the Bible,
I'm just going to quickly show you this.
It says, it came to pass when men began to multiply
on the face of the earth
and daughters were born unto them
that the sons of God saw the daughters of men
that they were fair
and they took them lives all of which they chose.
You see that word, chose?
And the Lord said,
my spirits shall not always strive with man
for that he also is flesh,
yet his days shall be 120 years.
There were giants in the earth in those days.
And also after that,
when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men
and they bare children to them,
the same became mighty men,
which were of old, men of renown
and God saw that the wickedness of man
was great in the earth
and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart
was only evil continually.
See, here's a story about men who chose wives,
particularly, it uses that word.
They looked at women that were fair
and they chose them
and said, we're going to procreate with these women
and what was the result?
It talked about giants being born.
And all throughout the Bible,
you'll see giants all throughout the Old Testament,
always the wicked, heathen, ungodly people
who God is destroying,
it always says, oh, and by the way,
in Mount Seir, that's where the giants were.
He said, go in and kill them all.
He says, and I'm not saying we should kill an IVF
but you don't get me wrong.
But what I'm saying is that it was indicative
of these ungodly Canaanites,
the Hivites, the Perizzites, the Debbiezites
and then also, oh, King of Bashan,
an Amorite king, was a giant,
the Philistines had giants.
God only talked about these ungodly areas
having these giants.
Now, I'm not saying that it was the giant's fault.
I'm not saying it was his fault
that he was born into this society
but I am saying that all throughout the Bible,
indicative of these wicked, perverted societies,
you have humans that are growing to abnormally tall sizes,
nine and a half feet tall recorded in the Bible.
And that's not normal because they were trying to do that.
They were purposely doing that
because that's what ungodly societies have always done.
They did eugenics type of things in the South
hundreds of years ago.
They did it in Adolf Hitler in the Third Reich.
They've done it throughout history.
They did it in Genesis chapter six
because man has always been trying to tamper with God.
Man has always been trying to put himself
in the place of God,
just like Satan tried in the Garden of Eden.
It's what he's about.
And so, number four is the wicked sin
of putting yourself in the place of God.
So, number one is murder.
Number two, perverting nature.
Number three, stealing.
Number four, putting yourself in the very place of God.
Number five, you're advancing the agenda
of stem cell research and lesbians getting IVF.
I mean, think about it.
By you participating in that act,
by you shelling out those thousands of dollars,
you're supporting that doctor.
You're giving him more practice.
You're giving him more experience.
You're giving him more research
so that now the lesbians can go adopt children
and have families.
Now, does that make you stomach turn?
Because it's not in the lead right now.
Because if that doesn't make you stomach turn,
then some queer and some lesbian
can go make babies in a test tube
and bring them up and molest them.
That doesn't make you sick to get out of here right now
because I'm going to tell you something.
It's perverted and wicked and ungodly.
And you know what?
Do you want to be a part of that?
Huh?
You want to be a part of that research
that's helping them do that?
You want to be a part of stem cell research
which takes a human being and pokes and pogs at it
and chops it up while it's alive
and tests on it and attaches it to a mouse?
They attach it to a mouse cells.
They take mice cells, animal cells,
and combine it with a human embryo
to do this research for stem cell research.
So I was just reading about it and I said,
look, you want to be a part of it?
You want to even be participating in that doctor's office?
You want to park your car in that driveway
where this wicked stuff is going on?
You're part of it.
The Bible says have no fellowship
with the unfruitful works of darkness
but rather reprove them.
That's what I'm doing right now, I'm reproving them.
For it is a shame even to speak of those things
which are done of them in secret, the Bible says.
It's a shame to even talk about it.
And God says don't have fellowship with it,
don't have anything to do with it.
Second Chronicles 19, 2,
And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer
went out to meet him and said to him,
and said to King Jehoshaphat,
Shouldst thou help the ungodly
and love them that hate the Lord?
Therefore is wrath upon thee from before the Lord.
Because you help the ungodly.
Because you love those that hate the Lord.
He said the wrath is on you.
Because you helped.
That's what he says.
Second Chronicles 19, 2.
So number five, you're advancing the agenda
of stem cell research.
You know the Bible says you're supposed to bury
dead bodies, that's what it teaches.
Because it's a picture of the resurrection,
you bury it, it's like planting a seed.
And then one day you have the faith
that it's going to rise again.
It's like Christian people throughout time
have always buried their dead.
But instead of burying the child,
let's chop it up in some laboratory
and combine it with a mouse
and then flush it down the toilet.
That's what you're supporting, stem cell research,
that's what it is.
Christopher Reeve, he wanted to murder
as many babies as it would take
so that he could walk again.
That's what he was.
He's a hero.
I see billboards of him.
Hero.
You know when he died I said praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
You say, why?
Whoa, whoa, you're ungodly.
You're hateful.
I said praise the Lord.
He's not going to butcher any more babies.
Hey look, do you think people were crying
when Adolph Hitler died?
Would you be crying if Adolph Hitler died?
Would you be crying if they excused
Jeffrey Dahleman?
No.
Look, I said praise God.
He can't murder and pervert nature anymore.
He went to where he belongs in hell.
He's a child of the devil.
And I'm not, Christopher Reeve's a pervert.
He's in hell right now.
He can't walk in hell either.
And I'm going to tell you something.
I don't want to help that jerk.
And I don't want to help any of their ungodly
tampering with nature.
And so that's number five,
advancing the agenda of stem cell research.
And I'm in a hurry.
I'm out of time.
You get the point.
Number six, the sin of what the man's committing
in the clinic, playing with himself.
That's a fact.
That's the sixth sin of IVF.
And number seven is the lack of faith.
And here's where I'm going to close with this.
The Bible says,
Know ye that the Lord, He is God.
It is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves.
We are His people in the sheep of His pasture.
See, it's a lack of faith in God where they're not
willing to pray for 20 years and watch God perform a miracle.
You say, why would I want to pray for 20 years
so I could have a kid?
Because maybe then your kid's name is going to be Israel,
and he's going to be one of the greatest men who ever lived.
He's going to have whole chapters of the Bible written about him.
He's going to be a household name,
but anybody in the world right now
has heard the name Israel?
God says, I'll curse you if you don't obey the words of this book.
He says, Thou shalt bring up children,
but thou shalt not enjoy them.
I'd rather have one kid that I enjoy
than bring up a bunch of test tube babies that I won't enjoy
because God's going to curse me.
And so it's a lack of faith in God
that says I've got to take it into my own hands
and get children myself
because I don't have the faith to wait on the Lord.
The Bible says, wait on the Lord.
Pray without ceasing.
Keep on praying and waiting.
But lastly this,
you know what it reminds me of?
It reminds me of the plan of salvation.
It reminds me of a person who says
I'm not just going to trust God for salvation.
I'm not just going to have my faith in Jesus Christ to save me.
Because of course, what's it called to be saved?
Born again. Being born again.
Being born of the Father.
It's like people have their own religious form of idea.
They say, no, I'm going to be my own
I'm going to be my own God.
I'm going to be my own Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I'm going to save myself with all my good works,
my righteous life, my church attendance,
my baptism.
I spoke in tongues.
I've been baptized, sanctified, and filled with the Holy Ghost.
And so God's going to let me into Heaven
because I'm my own Savior.
And God says, no,
I will open the womb
and bring you forth into the kingdom of God.
I will save you.
I will birth you into my family.
You will not do IVF your way into Heaven.
You've got to be born again.
You've got to be born naturally.
He says you've got to be born of the flesh
and you've got to be born of the Spirit
and you've got to be born by the will of God,
the Bible says in John chapter 1.
And so it's not the will of man.
It's not you saying
I think I can get to Heaven because I do thus and so.
He says, no, not everyone that saith unto me,
Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of Heaven,
but he that doeth the will of my Father,
which is in Heaven.
And John says this is the will of my Father
if you believe on him who God has sent.
He says God's will is that you believe on Jesus Christ
and he'll save you.
You're not going to test tube your way into Heaven, my friend.
You're not going to test tube your way and say,
well, look at all the sins I gave up.
Look, I turned from drinking and I turned from smoking
and I turned from sin to the Savior.
He said, no, friend,
my plan of salvation was by grace through faith
and that and out of yourselves.
It wasn't of your test tube.
It wasn't of yourself.
Just like children, it's the gift of God.
It's from him, not of works for sin he man should boast.
And so anybody who goes to Heaven
was conceived naturally by Jesus Christ.
It's not their own will and volition
where they stole their way into Heaven.
No, it's not going to work.
It may work on this ungodly world,
but one day this world's going to be burned up
and you're going to stand before God
and if you weren't born again
through the faith of Jesus Christ,
you ain't born again, you're going to go to Hell.
But if you're saved by the blood of the crucified one,
you'll go to Heaven
through the blood of Jesus Christ
because he's your natural, real Father.
Let's bow our heads and have a word of prayer.
Father, I thank you so much for the clarity of the word of God.
Boy, we live in such a world where people are confused.
CNN gives us some news story.
It sounds like our president is saving the lives of these babies.
All he's doing is saying,
throw it in the trash, don't experiment on it.
Either way, it's a death.
Either way, it's murder.
But God, thank you so much for the clarity of the Bible.
I love the black ink on white pages.
I don't have to sit around and wonder what it means.
Just open it up and you just clearly say,
it's the Lord.
He has made us not we ourselves.
Thou shalt not kill.
I open the womb.
I make alive.
I kill.
God, please just help us
to never try to usurp the authority of God.
Help us to know what we believe
and not be wishy-washy
and carried about with every wind of doctrine.
Help us not to be
the type of people who can be deceived
and just go to some doctor
and bow down and worship him
and do what he says
and some man plays with himself
and then has kids unnaturally.
God, help us.
God, help that man.
And so, Father, I just pray that you would please
just bless our nation in some way.
I don't even know how you could bless this nation,
but God, just keep us safe.
Remember your people.
Remember there are people in this world that love you
that are not part of this filth.
And God, help us to never participate
in this kind of ungodliness
but to take a stand against it.
And God, I love you
and I thank you so much for...
