1 Corinthians chapter 11, the Bible says,
Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things,
and keep the ordinances as I delivered them to you.
But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ,
and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonereth his head.
But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonereth her head,
for that is even all one, as if she were shaven.
For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn,
but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
For a man indeed ought not to cover his head,
forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God,
but the woman is the glory of the man.
For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.
Neither was the man created for the woman, but the woman for the man.
For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
Nevertheless, neither is the man without the woman,
neither the woman without the man in the Lord.
For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman,
but all things of God.
Judging yourselves, is it calmly that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
Doth not even nature itself teach you that if a man have long hair,
it is a shame unto him?
But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her,
for her hair is given her for a covering.
But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom,
neither the churches of God.
Now in this that I declare unto you, I praise you not,
that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
For first of all, when ye come together in the church,
I hear that there be divisions among you, and I partly believe it.
For there must be also heresies among you,
that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
When ye come together therefore into one place,
this is not to eat the Lord's supper.
For in eating everyone taketh before other his own supper,
and one is hungry and another is drunken.
What, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in,
or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not?
What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this?
I praise you not.
For I have received of the Lord that which I also delivered unto you,
that the Lord, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread.
And when he had given thanks, he break it and said,
Take, eat, this is my body which is broken for you,
this do in remembrance of me.
After the same manner also he took the cup,
when he had sucked, saying, This cup is the New Testament in my blood.
This do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup,
ye do show the Lord's death till he come.
Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread and drink this cup of the Lord unworthily,
shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
But let a man examine himself,
and so let him eat of that bread and drink of that cup.
For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily,
eateth and drinketh damnation to himself,
not discerning the Lord's body.
For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord,
that we should not be condemned with the world.
Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat,
tarry one for another.
And if any man hunger, let him eat at home,
that ye come not together unto condemnation.
And the rest will I set in order when I come.
Let us pray.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for this day.
Thank you for the Word of God.
I thank you for your love,
and I thank you for the judgment that you execute.
Please bless Pastor Shelley as he preaches this message.
In Jesus' name, amen.
Amen.
The title of my sermon this evening is
Sins Against Nature.
And the Bible brings this up in a few different contexts in the Bible,
but it brings it up here in 1 Corinthians chapter number 11
when it's talking about distinctions between men and women.
Look at what it says in verse 14.
Doth not even nature itself teach you
that if a man have long hair,
it is a shame unto him?
So according to the Bible,
a man having long hair is a sin against nature.
It's not just a sin against God.
It's also a sin against nature itself,
is what the Bible says.
Of course, we all have a sin nature as mankind,
and as a result of having a sin nature,
we're going to sin.
But most of the sins that we commit are just very easy.
They're kind of almost, you would say, normal,
only in the sense that everyone does it, like lying.
Lying is something that just kind of comes naturally
whenever you're being in a pressured situation
or there's something embarrassing or shameful that you've done
and you don't really want to admit that.
It almost seems natural or normal just to lie.
And to me, the evidence would be the fact
that little children lie like it's natural.
And not only that, sometimes you're kind of,
I'm at least impressed at how good they are sometimes.
You're just kind of like shocked at just how easy it is for them.
But that doesn't mean that it's right.
Obviously, it's wrong.
But there are some sins that aren't just coming to us naturally.
They aren't easy to do.
They are what the Bible describes as a sin against nature.
And one of those is men having long hair.
Men having long hair goes against nature.
It's not natural. It's not normal. It's not easy.
There's something unnatural about it.
And you know what? Men should have short hair.
Now, of course, the flip side of this is also the same
when we look at the other gender.
And yes, there's only two genders, okay?
It says in verse 15,
But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her,
for her hair is given her for a covering.
So according to the Bible, men having long hair is against nature.
Therefore, the flip side would be true that a woman having short hair would be against nature.
Now, it kind of hints at this.
And just for sake of argument,
why don't we just kind of go through this chapter a little bit
just to make sure we didn't miss something, okay?
But if you notice at the very beginning of this chapter,
it says,
Be followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things,
and keep the ordinances as I delivered them to you.
So the Apostle Paul starts out by saying,
Follow me as I follow Christ.
I want to praise you guys. You're keeping the ordinances.
Then he says in verse 3,
But...
So this is something that he's not praising them for.
I'm glad you're keeping the ordinances,
but you're not doing something right.
What is it that you're not doing right?
But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ,
and the head of the woman is the man,
and the head of Christ is God.
Therefore, he's saying,
I want you to understand, though, there's an authority structure that exists.
There's Christ, then there's men, and then there's women.
And of course, he's looking at this from a specific family,
where there's essentially God, Christ, the husband, and the wife.
This is an authority structure that exists.
I want you to guys recognize that there's an authority structure that exists.
Verse 4,
Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.
Now, of course, the Bible uses the word head interchangeably here.
In many cases, it's just referring to your literal, physical head.
And then in a few places, it's talking about the authority structure that a head represents.
And of course, the head is our authority structure.
The body obeys the head.
The head is what gives commands and directions to the rest of the body.
If you are brain dead, then you are a Democrat.
But also, if you're brain dead, your body isn't going to move.
It's basically the symptom of being brain dead.
Whereas you could be missing hands, arms, legs, and many parts of your body,
and you can still function as a human.
So we understand that the head is the authority structure.
It's what tells everything else what to do.
It's in charge.
It makes the decisions.
So therefore, that physical body part helps us to understand
the spiritual authorities that exist in the world,
that God tells Christ what to do,
and Christ tells the husband what to do,
and the husband tells the wife what to do.
This is important.
So then it's saying, when a man is prophesying or praying,
meaning preaching the Word of God or praying,
and he has his head uncovered, he's dishonoring his head.
Well, the first head is talking about his physical head being covered,
meaning having long hair.
His second head is talking about Christ, who is the authority over him,
and how he's dishonoring Christ when he himself is praying or prophesying with long hair.
That's what it's saying.
Verse 5,
So the Bible is saying if a woman, though, has short hair
and is praying or speaking the Word of God,
going out soul winning, preaching in that capacity,
and she has this short haircut,
she's dishonoring her authority structure,
which would be who? Her husband.
She's making her husband look bad
and dishonoring her husband by having a short haircut,
and it would be almost as if she was just completely bald.
I mean, it's basically the same as what it's saying.
It says,
Now, I think what the Apostle Paul is trying to bring to the surface
is the reality that a woman who has a completely shaved head,
like, is just bald,
and this unfortunately happens to some people.
Maybe they get cancer.
Is it alopecia? Am I right?
Alopecia is another disorder where people can lose their hair,
and unfortunately, it's just ugly,
and it's not that the person's ugly.
It's just kind of an ugly look,
and it's embarrassing, and it's kind of shameful,
and for some reason, it's just very obvious.
It's just very obvious that a woman just happens to be completely bald.
I think Britney Spears shaved her head at some point or something like that,
and she just looks hideous,
and she used to be a very desirable young lady
when she was a teenager and stuff.
A lot of people thought this was very attractive,
but, boy, you buzz your head, and it's over.
It just doesn't even matter how attractive the woman is.
With just zero hair, it's just gross, okay?
And so what he's trying to say is
even a woman having a short haircut,
that's the same attitude we should apply,
but the problem is that some people still don't necessarily think
that short hair looks bad on women,
but everybody agrees being shaven is.
So he's just saying, but in my perspective
and in God's perspective, a woman with short hair,
she might as well be shaven
because that's how dishonoring and how ugly it looks to God.
For a woman to have short hair is similar
to just being literally bald
or shaven completely or a buzz cut
like G.I. Jane or Britney Spears
or there's probably other weirdo celebrities.
Sorry, I'm still stuck in the 90s or something like that,
so forgive me.
I didn't graduate with you to 2024,
but I guess now the women aren't even women anymore,
so I have to go back to the 90s when women were actually women,
but they were still shaving their head and it's gross.
Now, it says in verse 7,
for if a man indeed ought not to cover his head,
for as much as he is the image and glory of God,
but the woman is the glory of the man.
So men are not supposed to cover their head.
Women are supposed to cover their head.
Why?
Well, men are made in the image of God.
Therefore, God doesn't have his head covered.
Therefore, God doesn't have long, faggoty hair
like all the pictures that the Catholics have of Jesus.
The Catholics are wrong.
Their images of Jesus are false.
Jesus didn't have long, effeminate, girly hair.
He had short hair like a man,
and men are supposed to have short hair
like Jesus and like God who has short hair,
whereas women are not made in the image of God.
They are made in the image of the man.
They are the glory of the man.
Therefore, they have long hair,
and that long hair is also representative
of the fact that the husband is the head of the wife.
The Bible says in verse number 8,
for the man is not of the woman,
but the woman of the man.
We often think of the fact that men and women,
all of us, were born of our mother,
and so we kind of look at that as an origin.
But if we really go back far enough of origins,
women came from men.
Women can't exist without men.
They came from the rib of a man.
That is how woman was even formed in fashion.
Says this, verse 9,
neither was the man created for the woman,
but the woman for the man.
Additionally, women were not created
and then men to serve them.
Men were created,
and then women were created for the man.
The woman's purpose is for man.
She is his help meat.
That's why she was created is for men.
How dare you say that men should lead over women?
That's their job.
That's why they were literally created.
Women were created for the man.
That's what the Bible says.
It doesn't say women were created to hear me roar.
Women were created to lead.
Women were created to just have fun.
Girls just want to have fun.
No, women were created for the man.
That's what the Bible says.
It also says, then verse 10,
I'm sorry, let's read verse 10.
For this cause ought the woman
to have power on her head because of the angels.
Now, this verse, I think probably everybody
kind of agrees on the first part of this verse
and just like what it's saying
because it's basically just saying
women have long hair as representative of the fact
that they are supposed to be submissive to their husband.
Their husband has authority over them.
So the long hair being a covering
is a symbolic representation of the fact
that they have a covering over them spiritually
and even just literally, which is their husband.
The little bit of a phrase here,
where it kind of just says because of the angels,
that's not really something that's super easy to discern
just because of the fact that
there's not really any other mention in this chapter
about that phrase.
Now, plenty of people have all kinds of ideas
of what that could mean.
And it doesn't really matter, though, okay?
People like to major on the minors.
Let's take an entire chapter
talking about the importance of women having long hair
and men having short hair,
and let's ignore all of that
and let's talk about Nephilim now all of a sudden.
And it's like, what does that have to do
with 1 Corinthians 11?
You know, that's not even in view.
That's not even really what's being talked about.
Now, you know, one theory out there
is that it's just simply talking about fallen angels
in a sense of like the devil himself,
the devil, and how he tempted Eve.
And it's similar to other passages in the Bible
like 1 Timothy 2 talking about the woman being deceived
by the serpent.
And so as a result of that,
it's important for women to have leadership in their lives,
to have a husband that's ruling over them
so that they will then what?
Their children.
And let's just keep your finger here.
Let's just go there for a second.
Just go to 1 Timothy 2
and let's just look at what the verse says.
It's not that far.
Just to the right in your Bible,
1 Timothy 2, the Bible says in verse 13,
for Adam was first formed, then Eve.
Verse 14, and Adam was not deceived,
but the woman being deceived was in the transgression,
notwithstanding, she shall be saved in childbearing
if they continue in faith and charity
and holiness with sobriety.
So the Bible's basically just saying
women are going to be saved from something,
saved from what?
Transgressions.
Saved from sinning.
And who is trying to tempt them
and lead them into that sin?
The devil, of course.
The devil wants them to go down this path.
So how does a woman potentially save herself
from committing excess sin?
Well, she bears children.
Well, here's the thing.
How does a woman bear children?
She gets a husband.
That's how you bear children.
So it's basically pointing to the fact
that women should get married, have a husband,
then bear children.
That's going to deliver them from the evil one,
from the devil, from temptation,
from these type of things.
And of course, going back in that passage
of 1 Corinthians 11,
for this cause of the woman to have power on her head,
meaning for this cause,
should she have long hair
representing the fact that she has a husband?
Why?
Because the angels,
just basically that could be a theory
of an interpretation of this passage.
I personally believe that's most likely,
but I would never get really dogmatic about this phrase
because, frankly speaking,
there's just almost no information
that we can go off of in this chapter
that has anything to do with the word angel here.
So, but what I'm not going to do
is then just flip the Bible on its head
and be like, this is talking about
angels mating with women.
Okay?
That's like flat earth level nonsense.
Okay?
And it's just a complete denial of reality,
the rest of the Bible,
has nothing to do with the context.
What I explain to you
actually does deal with the context
and fits in with what we've been talking about.
But, you know,
maybe there's another explanation.
And I don't care
because it doesn't negate anything else
that we've been talking about.
Now, in verse 11, it says,
Nevertheless,
neither is the man without the woman,
neither the woman without the man,
and the Lord.
Meaning,
just because what we explained
that there's an authority structure
and we see God, Christ, husband, wife,
and just because women literally came from man,
and even though women are made to serve men,
and even though women are to be submissive
under their husband,
and even though women are under the authority
of their husband,
in Christ, they have no extra value
as being a man.
It's not like men are better than women, though.
It doesn't say that.
It's just different.
Men have a role, women have a role,
and in the Lord,
it's meaningless whether you're male or female.
In Christ, it's not about that.
Men have their responsibilities and jobs.
Women have their responsibilities and jobs.
And we all have our distinction.
It would be the same,
really, to say that there was a distinction here
would be similar to being racist or something
and acting like,
okay, well, white men have a better
and a more important role in the kingdom of Christ
than, you know, brown guys or something,
or Asian guys, or black guys.
That would be stupid.
That's silly.
It doesn't matter what color skin you have.
It doesn't matter your height.
It doesn't matter these type of things.
And it doesn't matter if you're male or female.
In the Lord, you can serve Christ.
You're created with a purpose.
Now, of course, that doesn't mean
that being male or female isn't important.
It doesn't mean that there isn't a specific role
or job for you.
It just means that one's not technically
more valuable than the other
in the context of Christ.
Verse 12.
For as the woman is of the man,
even so is the man also by the woman,
but all things of God.
And I think that God is trying to help us.
It's like, hey, the woman came from the man,
but then the rest of us came from a woman.
And so we constantly have this, like,
hey, one came from one and one came from the other.
It doesn't really matter.
To make a big deal out of that is just, is vain.
Verse 13.
Judge in yourselves, is it comely
that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
What is the Bible saying here?
What is comely?
Pleasant, attractive, beautiful,
suitable, appropriate.
Probably the most clear word would be appropriate.
Comely is appropriate or suitable.
Is it suitable or appropriate for a woman
to pray unto God uncovered?
And, of course, this is kind of a rhetorical question.
Is it good, is it right, for women to pray uncovered?
And what does the Bible say in verse 14?
Does not even nature itself teach you
that if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her,
for her hair is given her for a covering.
But if any man seem to be contentious,
we have no such custom, neither the church of God.
Now, verse 17, it changes complete context.
Did he ever answer that question?
No.
He did not answer the question in verse 13.
He just said this,
Judge in yourselves.
Is it comely that a woman pray unto God,
well, uncovered?
No or yes?
You know why he doesn't answer the question?
Because he's trying to help you understand something.
It's obvious.
I don't have to answer the question
because the answer is obvious.
Women shouldn't be praying unto God, uncovered.
What does that mean?
Joyce Meyer shouldn't pray to God.
Yeah, right.
All of these women preachers,
with their short haircuts,
shouldn't be praying to God, uncovered.
Neither should the whole boomer generation,
baby boomer generation,
that is virtually all chopped off their hair.
The Bible says that it's uncovered.
That it's comely for them to be praying unto God.
And boy, with that hair lip
about every old IFB church out there,
and about every Southern Baptist church out there,
and about every Methodist church out there,
and about every Presbyterian church out there,
and basically just the entire baby boomer generation
where all these women have just chopped off their hair,
and then they'll be like,
I'm a prayer warrior.
It's gross, according to the Bible.
In fact, you're committing a sin against nature.
In fact, why don't you just shave your head completely?
That's what the Bible's saying here.
I haven't even given my opinion yet, okay?
My opinion doesn't even matter.
We're just reading the Bible.
Well, that's Old Testament.
No, 1 Corinthians.
It doesn't say Chronicles.
It says 1 Corinthians.
This is New Testament.
Well, this is what they'll do.
All of that just is so unpleasant for them
and so uncomfortable, and they would never...
I mean, this might not be super red hot for you guys,
but just anywhere outside of these four walls,
it's like nuclear, okay?
So what they do is they basically just take verse 16
and just say everything I just read
is optional and meaningless.
They just say, like,
well, if any man seem to be contentious,
we don't have any...
We're not saying that you have to do this.
That is not what this verse is saying at all.
And what would be the point?
Hey, I'm going to write you 15 verses.
By the way, never mind.
Oops.
Don't forget that.
That's way too offensive.
No, no, no.
What is he trying to say in verse number 16?
If any man seem to be contentious...
So if anybody comes up to you
and wants to argue with you about this, okay?
We got that?
Someone wants to argue about this.
We have no such custom.
Well, what does that mean?
Well, keep your finger.
Go to Acts chapter 16 for a second.
Go to Acts chapter 16.
What does the word custom mean?
Well, of course, custom can mean a lot of different things.
In some context, custom could be in reference
to paying money to the government
or a country in relation to goods
and transportation and different things.
You have to go to customs
when you travel through a country.
Who's gone through customs?
And they want to charge you money
for bringing in certain gifts
and certain goods and whatever,
so you're paying them money, okay?
That's one application that we have
in our modern-day culture.
That's not really what we're talking about here.
There is a place in Romans
where the Bible talks about, you know,
you don't want to owe any man anything.
You pay tribute unto whom is tribute due,
and you pay custom unto custom.
So that applies.
But custom here in this context,
I'm going to show you similar
to what we have in Acts chapter number 16,
where really the best word to kind of
use to understand the word custom
would just be tradition, okay?
Now look at Acts chapter 16,
and I want to prove this to you.
Verse 20, let's read verse 20.
And brought them to the magistrate,
saying, These men, being Jews,
do exceedingly trouble our city.
Now that statement out of context
makes a lot of sense.
But that's not what we're talking about.
Verse 21, And teach customs,
which are not lawful for us to receive,
neither to observe being Romans.
What are they accusing the Jews of doing?
They're saying these guys are teaching
their own personal traditions,
their own personal statutes,
that are somehow in contradiction
with the laws of the Romans.
But was that really true?
Were the apostles Paul and Silas going around
teaching things that violated Roman law?
No, they weren't.
But what was the idea
and the understanding of custom?
It's their personal traditions or something.
It's inherent to them.
It's not a universal thing, right?
So if we go back to
1 Corinthians chapter number 11,
and notice what it says in verse number 2 again.
Now I praise you, brethren,
that you remember me in all things
and keep the ordinances
as I deliver them unto you.
What is he saying?
You keep all of the traditions of the church.
You're doing everything that's a, quote,
custom, a tradition, an ordinance
that I've given you in the church.
You're doing all those things.
But you know what you guys are screwed up on?
Something I never taught you,
something that has nothing to do with church,
you know what it has to do with?
Nature.
You guys are sinning against nature.
So what is he saying in verse number 16?
If any man is said to be contentious,
we have no such custom.
He's saying this is not a rule of the church.
Neither the church is God.
It's not my personal rule
that women should have long hair.
It's not the church is God's rule that has long hair.
You know whose rule that is?
Nature.
God created human nature,
and some things are just plain obvious,
and he's saying that's who you're violating,
and the symbolism of your violation
is a symbolism of disobeying the authority structure
that God has installed on this earth
where it is God, Christ, husband, wife.
He's saying I like that you keep all the minute details
and rules and laws that we had in the church,
but you're not doing this main thing, this huge thing.
You have a lot of people violating this natural law,
as it were,
and by doing so, you're sinning against your husband,
Christ, and God in that way,
and if someone were to argue this,
it would be like, look, this isn't a church rule, buddy.
This is a universal law.
This is just a law of nature
that you're in violation with.
That is the point that he's making here,
not just throw out 1 Corinthians 11.
That is not the thing he's saying.
Here's another thing that people bring up,
and I read a couple articles about it,
but they'll say, this is not saying
that women should have long hair.
It's saying they should wear like a hat.
They need to have a hat on,
and in fact, it doesn't even matter
if women have long hair or not.
It's as long as they have the hat on,
and frankly speaking, I grew up in a lot of churches
where it was all about hats or something.
Like men, if they came into church with a hat,
it was like wicked or something,
and it's like wrong for them to have a hat on,
but let me just prove to you that that's not even
what the Bible is bringing up.
Let's go to a couple places.
Go to Exodus chapter 28 for a moment.
Go to Exodus chapter 28,
and I want to just show you a few verses on this,
but look at verse number 40.
It says,
And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats,
and thou shalt make for them girdles,
and bonnets shalt thou make for them
for glory and for beauty.
The Bible is saying when a man wears a hat
and they wore miters and they wore bonnets,
the priests of God were wearing hats consistently
and serving and ministering unto God,
praying and prophesying.
They're wearing a hat,
and God said it was for glory and for beauty.
Well, how does that reconcile
with 1 Corinthians chapter number 11
where it's saying if a man
prays with his head cover that it would be not glory,
that it would be wrong,
because it's not talking about a hat.
It's talking about his hair length,
because the hat is not being brought up whatsoever.
There's other things that we could bring up
in this context.
Go to Ezekiel 44.
I want to go to one other place.
Go to Ezekiel 44.
So it's not saying that women have to wear a hat,
and, look, there are whole religions like this.
Mennonites and certain Amish groups,
they are very into head coverings,
is what they'll call it,
and you'll notice, because all their women
have these little, like, special bonnets
on their head wherever they go,
and they believe that they have to be wearing it.
Who's seen this?
Okay, yeah, everybody.
Basically everybody's seen these hats.
That's what they're doing.
They're twisting 1 Corinthians chapter number 11
and teaching that women should have these, like,
little hats and little bonnets on their head,
and, again, that's just not biblical,
and, of course, someone that's not saved,
I don't really expect them to understand the Bible, I guess,
but that is essentially, you know,
them twisting this scripture and not really understanding it,
and, again, I think some of the things
that I had read, they were saying
that you should have both,
but I just want to make it clear
it's not talking about hats.
Now, let's read a little bit also here in 1 Corinthians,
I'm sorry, in Ezekiel chapter 44.
Let's read verse number 17.
It shall come to pass that when they enter
in the gates of the inner court,
they shall be clothed with linen garments,
and no wool shall come upon them,
while as they minister in the gates
of the inner court and within.
You know, it just sounds so hillbilly
when someone says, wiles they,
but, you know, it's in the Bible,
so it's just, there you go.
They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads
and shall have linen breeches upon their loins.
They shall not gird themselves
with anything that causes sweat.
So they're supposed to have these things.
Verse 20.
Neither shall they shave their heads
nor suffer their locks to grow long.
Nor suffer their locks to grow long,
they shall only pull their heads.
So actually, the priests,
they were supposed to wear hats,
and it says not to shave completely,
but here's also what it says,
nor suffer their locks to grow long.
Here's the Bible literally saying,
men don't have long hair.
This is, oh, that's Old Testament.
Sure it is, but it's also New Testament.
It's both.
Both in the Old and the New Testament,
God didn't want men to have long hair.
Now, of course, everybody will be like,
Samson.
You know, they're just like, Samson.
And it's like, even if Samson had long hair,
that doesn't prove that everybody else should, okay?
I don't even know that you can prove beyond
a reasonable doubt that he did have long hair.
I think that he obviously had
long enough hair to be braided,
you know, or put in a weave,
because the Bible says that she,
out of the seven locks of his head,
weave them or whatever.
So, he could add a little bit of
bushly curly hair or something,
enough at least to be styled.
But at the end of the day,
that doesn't even prove that he had super long hair.
It doesn't mean that he had dreads necessarily.
You know, all these people want to have these like
weird exotic looking pictures of Samson,
and frankly speaking,
there's not even any proof that that's true.
And when you read the story of Samson,
you know he got his strength back
as soon as his hair even just began to grow.
I mean, it wasn't even shaven,
or it wasn't even long,
it was just like barely coming out,
like a buzz cut or something, basically.
When he had a buzz cut, he had that magic strength,
you know, and I use magic loosely,
obviously supernatural power from God, of course.
But here's the thing,
the Bible's just crystal clear from Genesis to Revelation,
a man having long hair is a sin against nature.
And a woman having short hair is another sin against nature.
And we as God's people, we shouldn't fall in these camps.
We should just do our best to be God honoring
and for men to have nice and short hair
and women to have nice and long hair.
Now, some people would say like, what are those links?
Well, go to Deuteronomy chapter 22.
Of course the Bible doesn't give a link.
I would say this, you know what it doesn't describe either,
is medium hair.
So there's probably a certain hair
that no one should have, medium hair.
Women should have long hair, men should have short hair.
Honestly, I think that it's just probably obvious
to just say like that person has short hair
or this person has long hair.
When you're kind of like, I don't know,
you probably just shouldn't have that hair, okay?
Now, again, to every person
that's going to be a little bit different
and a little bit unique,
and I don't go around with a ruler
and ask for people like,
I'm going to measure that hair right there.
I don't really, and frankly speaking,
I'm never going to bother someone personally about it.
I'll preach about it,
but I'm not going around as hair police
and when I go into the store,
I'm like, what's wrong with you?
I'm not looking at Fabio
and I'm just thinking like, what a queer,
even though I'm thinking it, okay?
And at the end of the day,
I'm not going around trying to be mad at people.
I want to love people
and tell them what the right thing is to do
and I just want people to sin against nature.
And frankly speaking,
I think that every man should basically
make that determination a rule for his wife.
And if some guy has a different standard than me,
then he's right and for my wife, I'm right
and that that's basically just
how we should all behave ourselves.
So if my standard is not your standard,
that doesn't matter, okay?
You know, for my household,
I pretty much want my wife and daughters
to have their hair at least
kind of coming to their shoulder.
To me, that's kind of like a bare minimum
and that's not like a recommendation.
That's like a bare minimum.
I like it longer than that.
I prefer it longer than that.
I've always liked long hair.
I remember there was a girl in school
that I really was interested in
when I was in junior high and high school
and she cut her hair at one point
and she was just like not attractive anymore.
And it was just, it was like,
I didn't understand why back then,
but I knew that I wasn't attracted to her
as much anymore.
She had nice long hair and then she cut it
and it was like really short
and it was just like gross.
I was like, what's wrong with you?
And you know, as a young boy,
I didn't even know 1 Corinthians 11 was in the Bible.
That's why he's saying,
hey, this isn't a thing in the church
or some custom of the church.
This is something that's just inside men
that when they just see a woman
take nice beautiful long hair
and chop it off, they're like, ah!
What'd you do?
Why?
Because it just somehow just looks more attractive.
And you find me ads that are designed
to attract men with bedroom appeal,
it's gonna have a woman with nice long flowing hair.
I mean, that's what they want.
They don't put the G.I. Jane Buzz haircut
woman in the ads
when they're trying to entice men.
Because that's just not what's enticing.
And advertisers don't care about the Bible.
They care about what's gonna work.
And you know what works?
Things that go with nature.
Here's another aspect of this.
Deuteronomy chapter 22, look at verse 5.
The woman shall not wear a sat 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.
The Bible is saying, in a similar vein,
men and women should also dress differently,
and that men shouldn't wear women's clothing,
and that women shouldn't wear men's clothing,
and if someone were to do so,
they themselves would be an abomination unto God.
Again, that's not my opinion.
That's the Bible.
Some people say, like, that's Old Testament.
Okay, well, you know,
the Bible's also against rape in the Old Testament.
Do you think that's, like, Old Testament only?
Is that how we're gonna interpret the Bible now?
Show me the New Testament condemning rape.
I guess it's cool now, right?
I guess it's cool.
You know, show me in the New Testament
where it says incest is offline.
So is that cool now?
New Jersey and Kentucky?
You know?
I mean, like, what parts of the Bible
are we gonna say it's cool now
because the New Testament didn't repeat that one?
You know?
And why in the world
would Jesus Christ dying on the cross
make it where it's cool now
for men to wear dresses and skirts?
It's not cool.
Now, I think that a lot of people,
because we live in our culture today,
we're just really confused.
And I looked at a couple different articles because,
and I've said some of this information before,
but I just want to repeat it
because I think that sometimes we forget
and we just, we get so brainwashed with the world.
But I found an article that's written by NPR,
National Public Radio.
It's like basically a fundamental organization.
No, I'm just kidding.
This is the title of the article.
When Wearing Shorts Was Taboo.
This was written in 2015.
And I'm not reading the whole article.
I'm just reading some excerpts from it, okay?
But it says,
the city council of Monahans, Texas,
passed an ordinance in 1944
that banned women in shorts from public streets.
So in 1944, in Texas, in that part of Texas,
women were not allowed legally to wear shorts in public.
You say, oh, that's, that's, you're,
there's fundamentalists.
Look, that's just, that was like nature.
They were saying that they shouldn't be wearing that.
Now, in this article,
it just brings up all kinds of different things
from different parts of the country.
I'm not gonna,
I wasn't gonna read a lot of the other states
and other cities that they had this,
but I did want to read a couple other sections.
It says, in August 26, 1934,
New York Times observed that, quote,
the bloomer dress became a sensation and a scandal.
Ministers preached against it.
Little boys followed it in the street
with cat calls and balls of mud.
Even the feminists weakened under pressure
and finally abandoned it.
So just, I'm just reading these
to give you a time capsule of reality.
It's saying in 1934,
when certain women would wear certain types of clothing,
the ministers were preaching against it.
Horrish outfits.
It said true acceptance of pants
as appropriate tire for women, however,
didn't become generally accepted until 1930s.
When Hollywood's elite,
such as Katharine Hepburn, began wearing them.
Why is it that women wear pants today?
According to the world, according to everyone,
it's because of Hollywood.
Hollywood.
Now, who runs Hollywood?
Now, you may think that it's Jews,
but if you go back to the 1930s,
if you go back to the origins of Hollywood,
it's not that Jews ran Hollywood,
it was that Jews are Hollywood.
It wasn't like 90%.
It was like 100%.
Hollywood was just Jews.
It was just synonym, synonym, or synonym, sorry.
Synonymous.
Now, in this article,
it brings up also some legislation.
It says, sometimes though American stubbornness
and sense of humor have thwarted attempts
to enforce dress codes,
in the spring of 1952, the Fort Worth City Council
received a letter from a concerned citizen.
The United Press reported,
the council's brief consideration of banning shorts
had made national news.
When a person wears shorts, the alarmed woman wrote,
it is, quote, an advertisement for adultery.
So in Fort Worth, Texas, in 1952,
people were against women wearing shorts
in public saying that they're promoting adultery.
This same woman took to the council and said, quote,
she's a decent lady, and she said
she resented having to look at the ugly legs
of men, women, and shorts.
This sounds like a good woman here.
She said, it was exposing gams, she added,
it was, quote, a disgrace to humanity.
Well, you say, like, well, what happened?
Well, you know, across America, many cities had ordinances
making it illegal for women to wear pants and shorts
and men's clothing, including Houston, Texas.
Houston, Texas had a statute,
and I'll read the statute for you
because I have it on my phone here.
But they had a city ordinance
where it was illegal to wear pants.
I think I might have actually deleted that picture, I'm sorry.
Well, it was basically just disguising yourself.
But this specific statute was in effect until 1980,
and it was overturned by someone known
as Phyllis Randolph Frye.
Phyllis Randolph Frye is considered
quote, the grandmother of the transgender movement.
Phyllis Frye is a transgender judge in the city of Houston.
Phyllis Randolph Frye was born Philip Randolph Frye.
He grew up in the Boy Scouts of America.
That was shocking to me.
He also graduated from Texas A&M University.
Philip Frye would often wear dresses to work as an engineer
and got fired and blackballed and no one would hire him.
So then he went and turned to work at the city,
and he became an attorney
and he became a member of the city council.
And in 1980, single-handedly overturned the city ordinance
making it illegal for men and women to cross-dress in the city.
So the reason why it's legal for women to wear pants
in the city of Houston is because of a faggot wearing dresses and skirts.
That's why it's legal.
That's why people are doing it.
Like sometimes, because many of us were born past 1980,
we don't even realize where we came from.
We don't even understand why people are doing what they're doing.
We don't understand why the stores have a bunch of pants
that are called women pants.
It's because of faggots, literally.
And they wonder like, who is usually in the fashion industry?
If I were to look at TV shows today that are about the fashion industry,
if I were to look up the top producers and manufacturers of fashion today,
people like Marc Jacobs and Armani,
just look up all of these clothing brands
and the people who make these clothing that are really popular,
you want to know what the common denominator is?
They're all faggots.
They're all a bunch of disgusting faggots
and they're wanting to put pants on women.
You know why they want to put pants on women?
Because they want to wear dresses.
It's not because they care about women.
It's not because they're trying to liberate women.
It's because they want to get away with dressing like a queer,
dressing like a woman.
And you know what? It's a sin against nature.
It's gross. It's disgusting.
Even atheists feel uncomfortable in this.
Go to Second Timothy, chapter 3.
We had some atheist protest us in Fort Worth,
Aaron Raw.
And he was wearing a skirt.
And I went up and I confronted them
and I said to him, I said, you know,
you got a bunch of queers and faggots out here.
And he said, I'm not a queer.
And I said, then why are we wearing a skirt?
And he says, it's a kilt. It's not a skirt.
You know why he was so offended?
Because he knew it was gay to dress in a skirt.
And he said, a skirt you step into, a kilt you wrap around.
It's still gay.
You're still a queer.
Like, I don't care about the distinction of how you put the garment on.
I don't care if you put it over the top of your head and pulled it down.
You're still a faggot.
And you know what, it's still a sin against nature.
And people get mad at me and they say,
you know what, that's your personal opinion that women shouldn't wear pants.
Okay, well then why does every bathroom sign have the same
fundamental doctrine that I do?
Really? The manufacturer of bathroom signs
is like a purveyor of Deuteronomy 22 or something?
No, it's a universal sign.
And you know what, it surpasses language itself.
It's not even written in English.
It's written in human.
It's written in nature.
It's written in the law of the universe.
Well, I don't think that that's what that means.
Well, you know, if you read the rest of Deuteronomy 22,
it literally even says that the man's skirt is his wife
later in the chapter.
So, yes, I could prove that all day long.
This sermon's not only about that.
There's another few things I want to bring up quickly here.
There's a lot of sins against nature
that we could discuss,
but I really kind of want to focus on that
and then these people that are really pushing it.
And the people that are pushing a lot of the sins against nature
are what we call reprobates.
And the Bible warns that in the end times
there's going to be an explosion of reprobates.
The world's going to be a dangerous place.
That's what 2 Timothy 3 is really hammering.
But look at verse number 3 itself.
Talking about these reprobates,
they are without natural affection.
What would be a natural affection?
Well, I think there's a lot of ways we could apply this,
but I want to apply it to one specific way.
The love that a parent has towards a child,
that is a natural affection.
There's something unique about as soon as a baby is born
that you just instantly love it so much.
And in fact, you love it more than people that you know.
You don't even know this thing.
This thing just came out and it's kind of gooey and messy.
And it cries and it whines and it's like a terrace.
And you love it more than everybody that you know.
Why? Because there's a natural affection towards your child
that you just have.
You instantly love it more than your friends
and extended family and even your own parents.
You just somehow just love it.
And it's a natural affection.
Someone not having natural affection without natural affection
would be all these women that are aborting their children.
Go over to Job 39.
And I know that we celebrate the idea
of Roe v. Wade being overturned.
But let me just say something.
In 2020, there was 930,000 abortions in America.
In 2023, there was over a million.
So the abortions actually went up.
The abortions keep going up.
A million a year.
Just a million babies being slaughtered every single year.
This is a sin against nature.
It is unnatural for a mother to destroy the baby
that it has inside of it.
Or the one that it just gave birth to.
It's disgusting. It's gross.
Job 39, verse 13.
Gave us thou the goodly wings and the peacocks,
or wings and feathers under the ostrich,
which leaveth her eggs in the earth,
and warmeth them in dust,
and forget it that the foot may crush them,
or that the wild beast may break them.
She is hardened against her young ones,
as though they were not hers.
Her labor is in vain without fear,
because God hath deprived her of wisdom,
neither hath he imparted her understanding.
So saying this, this animal represents a stupid woman,
a foolish woman,
and specifically it says she's hardened against her young ones.
Notice this.
As though they were not hers.
Why does she have to be hardened against them
as if they were not hers?
Because everyone cares about their own children.
Because it's nature.
It's natural.
You have to be hardened
in order to not have love and affection
towards your own children.
Showing that a woman that would destroy her own children
has been hardened.
She's without natural affection,
and she's sinning against nature.
Now admittedly,
I don't think that there's nearly enough reprobates
to slaughter all the babies
that are being killed through abortion.
A lot of these women
have been deceived and brainwashed
and tricked and deceived
into not realizing that they're killing their children.
Because if they actually understood what they were doing
and they realized what was happening,
they would never do that.
And similarly with this ostrich,
it's kind of saying she's just so stupid
and lacks so much understanding
that she's destroying her own children
not even realizing what she's doing,
putting them in a dangerous situation.
Go over to Romans 1.
You know, it's just sad
that we live in a country, in a culture,
where so many people are destroying their own children.
And some people are even proud about this.
I mean, there is a disgusting picture
of some woman that had like a shirt or a slogan.
She was like,
she basically said,
I've had 37 abortions and I can't wait to have another.
And she's like, how bad is our culture
that we allow those people to exist?
We allow women to just have this attitude,
this unholy, unnatural affection.
And what I've noticed is everything I'm saying,
everything that I've brought up,
it just really, really emphasized in one specific group.
And that one specific group is the sodomite community,
is the LGBT community,
is the faggot community,
is the pride community,
is the rainbow community,
is the gay community.
However you want to word it,
they all love everything I brought up, don't they?
The fags love for the men to have long hair
and the dykes and the lesbians,
they love to have short hair
and the fags love to wear dresses and the skirts
and the lesbians love to wear pants
and to dress like a man.
And these both love to kill unborn children.
They love abortion
and they love the fight for abortion rights.
And you often see the exact same crowd
at the pride event as the abortion rally.
It's the same group, it's the same club.
They're basically on Team Satan, literally.
And they're committing sins against nature.
And it's a self-destructive community.
Some people call it the suicide squad
and I think that's an appropriate title.
Because they're destroying themselves,
they're killing themselves,
and they hate themselves,
that's why they often kill themselves.
And the Bible even says in Romans chapter number one,
verse 25, who changed the truth of God into a lie
and worshiped and served the creature
more than the creator, who is blessed forever, amen.
You know, there's also kind of a third wheel
and this is the PETA organization.
Man, the group that loves faggots
and loves abortion and just loves PETA,
they all seem to be the same person
and they have a Jewish ancestry, you know?
It's interesting how all those things are connected.
Verse 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.
Notice another sin against nature.
And notice this is the most important word.
I think if you're gonna show anybody
anything on this topic, please, please show them this word,
highlight this word, circle this word,
where it says in verse 26, change.
Women were not born lesbian.
Women were not born dykes.
They changed.
They changed the natural use
into that which is against nature.
They changed.
Verse 27, and likewise also the men,
leaving the natural use of the woman.
Notice both parties, there was a point in time
where something happened.
The woman changed, the man left.
The man left.
And what was that point in time?
It was the point of reprobation.
It was when they were reprobated of God.
Why?
Because they changed the truth of God into a lie.
Because they hate God.
Because they want nothing to do with God.
They just want to sin against nature and sin against God.
They hate God in their heart and in their mind.
And as a result of that,
they go against nature in every way.
With the haircuts, with the way they dress,
killing the unborn,
and then doing the most abominable and disgusting act against nature.
Men with men,
working that which is unseemly
and receiving themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
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.
You know, Calvinists would love to tell you that Romans 1 is about all of us.
Speak for yourself, buddy.
I'm not men with men.
I didn't leave the natural use of the woman.
I mean, that's disgusting.
That's weird.
You know why they want to say this?
Because they want to avoid the elephant in the room
that makes it clear in the Bible that sodomites are unredeemable.
That they're reprobate.
That the lifestyle is an evidence of how much they hate God.
That's why they march up and down with the rainbow.
It's an obvious spiritual problem.
And they keep wanting to figure out what causes someone to be gay.
It's because they hate God.
It's that simple.
And it's like, I'm not a gay person that loves Jesus.
Not the Jesus in this book.
They don't like Leviticus 2013.
They don't like 1 Corinthians 11.
They don't like Romans chapter number 1.
They don't like John 3 16 either.
They hate all of it.
What does it say in verse 30?
Haters of God.
And I heard someone say this and I thought it was pretty interesting.
I liked it.
They were saying, you know,
there is no such thing as sodomite marriage.
There's no such thing as gay marriage.
Because they literally can't be married.
They literally can't even do the thing that men and women do.
Because, look, if you have two plugs,
you can't plug it in.
And if you have two outlets,
you have nothing to plug in.
They're literally incapable of doing the thing
that men and women do, which is marriage.
It just doesn't even work.
What they're doing is not marriage.
They can't be married.
And they cannot do the action
and perform the procreation that God has created.
Because they don't have the necessary parts.
The batteries weren't included.
Okay?
And so, literally, gay marriage isn't even a thing.
It doesn't even exist.
It's a mockery of the Bible.
It's fake. It's not real.
It's not sincere.
Go over to Jude 1.
I'll finish there.
Jude chapter number 1.
It's sad that so many Baptists and so many preachers
won't preach about the sins against nature.
And this is why it's sad.
You'll say, like,
oh, well, you know, I just want to preach the Bible.
Okay, but you know what the sins are against nature?
They're things that are just so obvious
you wouldn't even need the Bible to realize they were wrong.
Why can't you preach against the things that are so obvious
that even without the Bible you would know it was wrong?
Let alone the fact that the Bible does bring it up.
Let alone the Bible does clearly mention it.
And it's just so embarrassing
that you have people that are going to church
that are literally violating
and doing the things that are against nature
like reprobates.
You know, we as God's people
should not look, act, sound, or talk like reprobates.
We should not be the ones with the wrong haircuts
and the wrong clothing.
We should be setting the right example
of the distinction between men and women
having the right hairstyles
never aborting our children
never even acting like it's an okay alternative
or some kind of option
and recognizing that these people are
clearly against nature.
Jude says in verse 7
Even as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them in like manner
giving themselves over to fornication
and going after strange flesh
are set forth for an example
suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Notice, strange.
What is that? It's not natural.
Because what they do is not natural.
There's nothing natural about it.
There's nothing normal about it.
It's not a real marriage.
It's not a real relationship.
These people are fake.
All they're doing is abusing themselves.
Sodomites, all they do
they're just abusers of themselves.
And they're just hurting themselves
and they hurt everything around them.
They're cockroaches, they're filthy
they're disgusting.
They're made to be taken and destroyed.
The Bible says that they should be destroyed
with stones.
You know, America needs to
take all of these Sodomites
and stone them to death.
Our government, you know, we talk about putting
the Ten Commandments on the wall in Louisiana.
Who's heard about that?
The state wants to say we need to mandate
the Ten Commandments to be put on the wall.
I want Texas to say
the biggest 2013 needs to be put on the wall
of every school.
It's like, well, that'll never go through the
Supreme Court. Even if it just lasts for a few
years, I'm fine with that.
Let's just put it on the wall.
Let's put the whole Bible on the wall.
In fact, that's just what the Bible says
and that we're supposed to decorate our houses
and decorate our walls and decorate
everything with the Word of God.
That's what we're supposed to decorate it with.
Not a crucifix.
Not some picture of a
dude with long hair,
a graven image,
and put that up on the wall.
That's what Catholics are doing.
Catholics are literally taking sins against nature
and they're violating the First Commandment
of God in a blasphemous
ceremony by putting a crucifix
on the wall. And they're putting
this disgusting image of a
guy that looks like a faggot
and acting like that's Jesus Christ.
Catholic churches are wicked
as hell. And that's why Catholic
churches are filled with faggots.
And yeah, the Pope said, man, we have too many
faggots in our ranks.
And they apologized about it.
Why would you apologize about that?
What did you say that was wrong?
Is it wrong that you
like, do you not have faggots?
Or do you have faggots?
Or is it okay to call them faggots?
Like, what was the wrong part there, Pope?
And again, Pope means
Father, we shouldn't be calling him Pope.
We should call him poop instead or something like that, right?
The poop said
you know, there are a bunch of faggots
in their midst. And you know,
that's really the fruit of what these sodomites
produce anyways. Men and women
produce babies.
Sodomites, what they do, produces
poop. Literally.
They're disgusting. They're
filthy. They're abominable.
They're reprobate. They're disgusting.
They're the worst thing I've ever
seen in my entire life.
I saw maggots this week, and I
liked them in comparison to faggots.
I would rather
have a pet farm of maggots
than ever be around
two faggots.
I would rather live next to a
faggot field.
I'm sorry, a maggot field. Wow, let me say this right.
Only if I could burn that, okay?
I would rather
live surrounded by maggots
than one faggot exists
in our country.
I will wear a maggot suit.
I'll eat
a bowl of maggots.
If it will put
all the faggots to death.
I mean, I'm trying to make it palatable.
I said, hey, for free,
I'll be the public executioner.
I'll volunteer my time.
You know, like,
I'm willing to do that, you know,
I'll do that service.
I'll eat a bowl of maggots.
Hey, I'll fly, you know, I'll pay
for the Jews. We'll send them back to Israel.
Like, I'm trying to be really kind
here to help. But you know what
I'll also do? I'll pray that God is going to
kill a bunch of fags tonight,
divinely.
And I always want it to only be by an act
of God. You know, I never want it to be
someone murdering them. I want it
to be like them accidentally killing themselves
or just killing themselves
or
jumping into the sea with a millstone
tied around their neck or a heart
attack or AIDS
or just a lightning strike
or just a brain aneurysm
or a heart attack. Just
something where God just strikes them
dead and no one else is harmed.
And again, Jesus
is always the smartest. You know,
them being in the depths of the sea with a millstone
tied around their neck, you know, you're just
never going to rescue them. Even
if you take the submarine from the Titanic,
you won't get there, you know. Just blow
up before you can get down there or something.
And I like the fact there's no cleanup.
We don't even have to worry about it.
And no one will miss them.
And they're just going to
suffer the vengeance of eternal fire.
That's what the Bible said.
This is what I want. I want every
fundamental Baptist preacher to
explain to me what it means when
it says that they're an example of those that are suffering
the vengeance of eternal fire. What does that mean?
How does every sodomite
getting burned alive
by God
is an example of suffering the vengeance of eternal
fire? What does that mean?
Because you know what I think that means? I think it means
that fags are going to hell.
It's a pretty simple explanation.
What's your explanation for that verse?
Why don't you pretend? It's New Testament.
You know, we need
to keep warning people about the sins
against nature. And let us be a fundamental
Baptist church that in 50 years
from now, when we're all old,
that all the women don't chop off their
hair.
And all the women aren't wearing pants.
And all the men are wearing
dresses and skirts. Let's not be that Baptist
church, okay? Let's be a
Baptist church that still looks and sounds the same
as we did today. Alright, let's go to prayer.
Thank you Heavenly Father so much for your word.
Thank you for
giving us instruction and helping you
remind us of things that are just obvious.
Thank you for even giving us the laws
of nature so that we can be normal.
I pray that people would just
you know, desire to
please you. What the
Bible says, that they wouldn't
go against nature. That
men would embrace their roles as men.
Women would embrace their roles as women.
And I
pray that we could just be a bright and shining light
of what's obvious. So
that many in this world could recognize
what's normal.
And I pray that you'd help us as a
country to somehow get back to some
level of normal. And
if possible, please rid us
of these disgusting reprobates. And in Jesus'
name we pray, Amen.
For our final song, let's go to 150
My Faith
Has Found a Resting Place.
150 My Faith
Has Found a Resting Place.
My faith
has found a
resting place
not in
device nor creed.
I trust
the ever
living one. His
words for me
shall be.
I need no
other argument.
I need no
other plea.
It is
enough that
Jesus died
and that he died
for me.
Enough for me
that Jesus
saves. This
ends my fear and
doubt. A
sinful soul
I come to him.
He'll never
pass me out.
I need
no other
argument. I
need no other
plea.
It is
enough that
Jesus died and
that he died for
me.
My heart is
leaning on the
Word. The written
Word of God
salvation
by my
savior's name.
Salvation through
his blood.
I need
no other
argument. I
need no other
plea.
It is
enough that
Jesus died and
that he died
for me.
My great
position heals
the same. The
loss he came to
save.
He is precious
but he
shed. For me
his light he
gave. I
need no other
argument.
I need no
other plea.
It is
enough that
Jesus died
and that he died
for me.
Thank you all for coming. God bless.
You are dismissed.
Thank you.
