"We Cry "Abba, Father"" Jesus came to baptize every believer with the Holy Ghost (Luke 3:16). "I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished!" (Luke 12:50). Why was Holy Ghost baptism His priority? "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." The Holy Ghost is "the Lord from Heaven," (1 Corinthians 15:47). "Ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father." (Abba means "father"). Romans 8:16-17 - "The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God." PRINCIPAL - "The Things Reprobates Do" A reprobate believes that right is wrong and wrong is right. These are the works of a reprobate: "unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful." They not only do these things, but also love to watch other people doing them. Romans 1:32 - "Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." PRINCIPLE - "How They Change Truth Into A Lie" German philosophers Immanuel Kant and George Hegel inspired infamous thinkers like atheist Friedrich Neitzche and communists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Their triad -- "thesis > antithesis > synthesis" -- posited that any proposition (thesis) can be negated (antithesis) and the two can be reconciled (by synthesis). Communism and atheism used this tactic to overthrow spiritual and moral absolutes and create a society of evil where right is wrong and wrong is right. That defines a reprobate society. Romans 1:28 - "...as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind." PROPHECY - "The Day Of Wrath And Righteous Judgment Of God" Everybody wants to go to heaven when they die, and if you listen closely to modern society, virtually everyone believes they will. What is virtually NEVER discussed is that every person must stand before God in judgment, and the wicked will be turned into hell. But even before THAT, God warns that the wicked on earth will face a dreadful Day of the Wrath of God when Jesus returns for the Battle of Armageddon. Romans 2:5 - "...the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Who will render to every man according to his deeds."
