God is God. Jesus is Alive.








Exodus 20:1-5a
And God spoke all these words, saying, "I am the Lord thy God, which has brought you out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourselves any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in the heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: You shall not bow down yourselves to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God."


Psalm 96:1-13

  1. O Sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
  2. Sing unto the Lord, bless His name; show forth His salvation from day to day.
  3. Declare His glory among the heathen (Gentiles, nations), His wonders among the people (tribes of Israel, nation, troops, congregation).
  4. For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods. 
  5. For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.
  6. Honor and majesty are before Him: strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.
  7. Give unto the Lord, O you kindreds (families, tribes) of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
  8. Give unto the Lord the glory due His name: bring an offering, and come into His courts.
  9. O worship the Lord in the beauty of Holiness: fear (whirl, dance, travail with pain, trust, hope, wait carefully) before Him, all the earth.
  10. Say among the heathen (Gentiles, nations) that the Lord reigns: the world (inhabitants of the globe) also shall be established that it shall not be moved: He shall judge the people righteously.
  11. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
  12. Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice.
  13. Before the Lord: for He comes, for He comes to judge the earth: He shall judge the world (inhabitants of the globe) with righteousness, and the people (tribes of Israel, the nations, congregation, troops) with His truth.
Do you see that last verse? "BEFORE THE LORD:" Everything stated in verses 1 thru 12 are to be done before the Lord returns to judge all people. Better get busy: Jesus is coming.

Isaiah 42:8
I am the Lord: that is My name: and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images.

Deuteronomy 32: 8-12
When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
For the Lord's portion is His people; Jacob is the lot of His inheritance.
He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; He led him about, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of His eye.
As an eagle stirs up her nest, flutters over her young, spreads abroad her wings, takes them, bears them on her wings:
So the Lord alone did lead him (Jacob [Israel]), and there was no strange god with Him.

2 Corinthians 6:16
And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? for you are the temple of the living God; as God has said, "I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people."

James 4:8, 10
Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded (hypocrites).
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He shall lift you up.
