Isaiah 1:21 How is the faithful city become an harlot… The faithful city which became a Harlot in Gods eyes was Jerusalem. The context supports this with a quick glance back to Isa. 1:1 as Judah and Jerusalem being the subject spoken of. So we can conclude from the text that Jerusalem is Not the real estate which most apply Jerusalem to but is to be understood as an assembly of souls who once did love God but then forsook Him with their own inventions which is also spoken of in The Revelation. Rev 17:18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. The woman is equated with that great city in the above verse. Just as New Jerusalem is the bride of Christ, not a literal city but an assembly of souls who love God, so was the first Jerusalem. New Jerusalem is the bride of Christ - An assembly of souls who love God. The first Jerusalem - An assembly of souls who did love God but forsook Him for their own inventions. They changed the ordinance of Faith alone(Deut. 6:5).....(See Colossians 2:14 on what Jesus nailed to His cross) What ordinance? See Isa. 24:5

Based on reading Revelation 21 and Revelation 22, we realize that The New Jerusalem will be an eternal utopia. As we know, a utopia refers to a location of 100% harmony and perfection. Originally, the Garden of Eden denoted in The Book of Genesis was a physical paradise on Earth, but when Adam and Eva introduced sin into the world in Genesis 3, that physical paradise on Earth was tragically lost. One day, we will have Eternal Paradise in The New Jerusalem, but it will only be for born again believers. As The Lord created everything as good back in Genesis, so He will make everything good again in The New Heaven and The New Earth, including The New Jerusalem.

An excellent sermon for this time in which the civil government has unlawfully put us in "lockdown."

It is wonderful to hear you again preaching the Word! Please continue preaching and posting, brother.

Choose ye this day who will rule over you. Caesar or God.

The fact is that America broke all the Ten Commandments. Enough said.

I found useful things for me in this message.

Dragons are considered to be very popular symbols today. However, the Bible Believer realizes that dragons are a symbol of Satan himself. Revelation 12:9 refers to the dragon as that old serpent called the Devil and Satan.

Thank you for being honest before God.

Correction: should have read Berean and not "Bertrand."

Good, very good and consoling. Drives people of nobility to study as the Bertrand did.

Plain speaking truth about God and sin. Where does evil come from? Ask the question and answer in the fact of God's complete Sovereignty. W.J.Mencarow in this sermon brings us to deal with our trials and tribulations and why? The big question we sometimes cry out Why? Thank you for good teaching and good doctrine.

Thank you for posting this.

Great Godly counsel from excellent exegesis of God's word! What a Blessing it must be to sit under this Godly man's shepherding!!

An excellent job of expounding the text! Great insight as to who the "he" is in verse 10 of Hebrews chapter 4!
