New Podcast: Tripping Over The Cornerstone

On this episode of the Innocence Redeemed podcast I will be giving a refresher about areas of sin that require repentance and talking about Jesus as our cornerstone and that sometimes when things aren’t going so well it is Him calling on us to give up a past sin or lifestyle, consider our ways that we may be found worthy to be called His and that if we keep going down the wrong path we will indeed trip over the cornerstone and be cast into a wilderness.  I will be talking about the importance of being in His presence in this uncertain season we now find ourselves and calling on Him for all of our needs.

 

 

 

 

 

Verses as they pertain to this podcast:

 

 

1 Peter 4:8 (KJV)

 

8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.”

 

 

Exodus 20:3-5 (KJV)

 

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

 

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

 

Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

 

 

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (KJV)

 

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

 

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

 

 

1 Peter 2:6 (NLT)

 

6 As the Scriptures say, “I am placing a cornerstone in Jerusalem, chosen for great honor, and anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.”

 

 

Isaiah 28:15-22 (NLT)

 

15 You boast, “We have struck a bargain to cheat death and have made a deal to dodge the grave. The coming destruction can never touch us, for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception.”  

 

16 Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“Look! I am placing a foundation stone in Jerusalem,a firm and tested stone.It is a precious cornerstone that is safe to build on. Whoever believes need never be shaken.

17 I will test you with the measuring line of justice and the plumb line of righteousness. Since your refuge is made of lies, a hailstorm will knock it down.  Since it is made of deception, a flood will sweep it away.

 

18 I will cancel the bargain you made to cheat death, and I will overturn your deal to dodge the grave. When the terrible enemy sweeps through, you will be trampled into the ground.

19 Again and again that flood will come, morning after morning,
day and night, until you are carried away. This message will bring terror to your people.

20 The bed you have made is too short to lie on.  The blankets are too narrow to cover you. (what that means is you cannot and will not hide these sins from the Lord)

21 The Lord will come as he did against the Philistines at Mount Perazim  and against the Amorites at Gibeon. He will come to do a strange thing; he will come to do an unusual deed:

22 For the Lord, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, has plainly said that he is determined to crush the whole land. So scoff no more, or your punishment will be even greater.

 

 

Luke 14:26-27 (NLT)

 

26 “If you want to be my disciple, you must, by comparison, hate everyone else—your father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even your own life. Otherwise, you cannot be my disciple. 

 

27 And if you do not carry your own cross and follow me, you cannot be my disciple.

 

 

1 John 2:15-17 (NLT)

 

15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 

 

16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 

 

17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.

 

 

Mark 8:31-38 (NLT)

 

31 Then Jesus began to tell them that the Son of Man must suffer many terrible things and be rejected by the elders, the leading priests, and the teachers of religious law. He would be killed, but three days later he would rise from the dead. 32 As he talked about this openly with his disciples, Peter took him aside and began to reprimand him for saying such things.

 

33 Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples, then reprimanded Peter. “Get away from me, Satan!” he said. “You are seeing things merely from a human point of view, not from God’s.”

 

34 Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. 35 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. 36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? 37 Is anything worth more than your soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my message in these adulterous and sinful days, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”

 

 

1 John 2:18-26 (NLT)

 

18 Dear children, the last hour is here. You have heard that the Antichrist is coming, and already many such antichrists have appeared. From this we know that the last hour has come. 19 These people left our churches, but they never really belonged with us; otherwise they would have stayed with us. When they left, it proved that they did not belong with us.

 

20 But you are not like that, for the Holy One has given you his Spirit, and all of you know the truth. 21 So I am writing to you not because you don’t know the truth but because you know the difference between truth and lies. 22 And who is a liar? Anyone who says that Jesus is not the Christ. Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist. 23 Anyone who denies the Son doesn’t have the Father, either. But anyone who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

 

24 So you must remain faithful to what you have been taught from the beginning. If you do, you will remain in fellowship with the Son and with the Father. 25 And in this fellowship we enjoy the eternal life he promised us.

 

26 I am writing these things to warn you about those who want to lead you astray. 27 But you have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true—it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.

 

 

Hebrews 8:9-12 (NLT)

 

This covenant will not be like the one I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand and led them out of the land of Egypt. They did not remain faithful to my covenant, so I turned my back on them, says the Lord.

10 But this is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel on that day, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their minds, and I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

11 And they will not need to teach their neighbors, nor will they need to teach their relatives,  saying, ‘You should know the Lord. For everyone, from the least to the greatest, will know me already.

12 And I will forgive their wickedness, and I will never again remember their sins.

  1. The virus and vaccine worship we’re now witnessing on a mass scale is a toxic form of idolatry, ugly and perverted as can be. Its manifestions and foul by-products are myriad and spreading. Those who choose to worship at this unholy altar will find themselves with nothing, to include the ashes of all the relationships they’ve destroyed, and all the worthy love they’ve thrown into the gutter. Vengeance belongs to the Lord, but unfortunately, some of us are going to have to witness lots of awful things to come. All we can do in the end, it seems, is to realize that most don’t have any idea what they’re doing. And so we’re commanded to forgive them for their ignorance and folly, all the while knowing that most are not listening to us. As for their pride, that’s another matter between them and the Lord. Pride is tied to will, and even the Lord won’t violate another’s free will. Thus, it’s foolish for us to think we can melt the hearts of stiff-necked arrogant people who have no idea how wrong they are when to them their stance seems so completely right. If this means a time of quiet separation from most or all of them during the holiday season between now and New Years’ time, well then, those of us who have been suffering might wisely embrace this and consider it to be for our own good, and for their good as well. I see this as a form of mercy, and a reminder to extend mercy perhaps by not engaging with foolishness, yet refusing in the end to be hard-hearted. And when they become disillusioned, and cry out, it will be imperative for us to resist having any pleasure in their distress but rather (and just maybe) reach out to them in their time of need and not throw them under the bus as they’re clearly doing to many of us now. I know this is some lofty talk, and I’m not even sure I’m capable of following through with this with much personal grace at all, but it’s something I’ve taken to prayer. The storm is starting to hit. It’s going to get ugly. And the aftermath is going to be a mess.

    1. The worship over the transhumanism and fear cult is the reason there is a separation occurring and it’s only going to get worse as they start having people take patches and implement microchips as they are doing in Sweden. I have spent countless hours addressing all of this and I’m to the point now that, short of any new revelation, there isn’t too much more to say on that subject. There is a plethora of information out there from many hosts covering all of this and so there’s really no excuse to remain in the dark about it, unless one willingly chooses to do so. Either it’s going to be understood, or it won’t. I need to put my focus where the Lord directs as indeed the hour is late.

      A few minutes before midnight as a matter of fact, and things are about to get very interesting to say the least.

      Thank you for your comment and my apologies for taking a few days to respond. I have a few projects going behind the scenes at the moment. 😉
