Live a higher life, way above the fray—perfect, like Me
“There’s a study that I found pretty exciting. They said the part of your brain that you get anxiety from is the same part of your brain that has gratitude.
You can’t be grateful and anxious at the same time. So then in the Bible, where it goes: instead of being anxious, be grateful, it’s so crazy to think that they were calling out legitimate things that scientists have found out.”
Good motivational message today in Anchorage at ABT, now called Mountain City Church.
Chad even included some of the 90 verses that refute “once saved always saved.” ABT has taught Alaskans the false doctrine of OSAS for many decades.
We must persevere, doing the right things daily.
Galatians 6:
7 Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. 9 Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up. 10 So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.
Jesus includes the RIGHT HAND in Matthew 5
27 You have heard that it was said [old covenant], ‘Do not commit adultery.’ 28 But I tell you [new covenant] that anyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to depart into hell.
Paul in Galatians 5
19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, 21 envyings, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.
6:7 Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap. 8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap CORRUPTION. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap ETERNAL LIFE.
Christians now taught they can have two masters

Dilemma: Calvinist pastors who teach the perseverance of the saints ‘omega’ version of OSAS personally know those who were certainly born-again and did not persevere.

Jesus – Our Source of REAL JOY & Strength!
“Abide in Me … that MY JOY may remain in you,
and that YOUR JOY may be made FULL.” – John 15
(Demon driven lust, FALSE joy sours & weakens)
LOVE & LUST begin with ‘L.’
One ends in HEAVEN, the other in HELL.
The result is a feeling of emptiness — “the psychological equivalent of making your home environment filthy for awhile. … It depletes the dopamine system.” – Huberman
“The higher the dopamine peak the bigger the drop afterwards, and you drop below baseline.” – Huberman
“…that ever, ever sort of escalating wildness that you need to watch in order to get an ever decreasing stimulus that comes back.”
Non-Christian Huberman says pornography “isn’t good or bad,” but consider what Jesus says about lusting from the heart with the eyes and even the hand:
“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. – Mt. 5:27-30
“Females don’t use pornography to the same degree. They use literary pornography.” – Jordan Peterson
36:15 “Don’t you know that a little sin, carelessly indulged in will prevent your salvation?”
“These little sins show that you are still a slave to sin.” “It shows the deceitfulness of your heart, and manifests that you still love the ways… of sin.”
“If you love sin; though, it is a little one, your heart is not right in the sight of God. You are still a stranger to divine grace.”
“God will never be one with you until you and your sins are split apart.”
“A sin is a sin, whether done in private or before the wide world.”
“Tell thine own conscience now what it is. Look it in the face. Confess it before God. May He give you grace to remove that sin and any other, and turn to Him with full purpose of heart.”
“Christians, recollect that little sins will spoil your communion with Christ. Little sins, like little stains in silk, may damage the fine texture of fellowship; little sins, like little irregularities in the machinery, may spoil the whole fabric of your religion.”
“..my friend, will you have your sin and go to hell, or leave your sin and go to heaven?”
“..will ye keep your secret sins, and have eternal fire for them? Remember it is of no use, they must all be given up, or else you cannot be God’s child. You cannot by any means have both; it cannot be God and the world, it cannot be Christ and the devil; it must be one or the other. Oh! that God would give you grace to resign all; for what are they worth?”
It’s the difference between the old and new covenants. The 6th commandment, ‘Thou shall not commit adultery’ meant sex outside of marriage. In the New Testament Jesus says that lusting in one’s heart after women is adultery – Mt. 5:27-29. Prager is Jewish.
The Holy Spirit helps us overcome when we completely submit to God (cold turkey to lusting 100%), resist the Devil and the lust demon flees, even homosexual lust! >>> FREEDOM!!!
“No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” (1 Cor. 10:13)

“The fight doesn’t end on the wedding day.”
After being exposed to pornography at the young age of 10, Matt developed a serious struggle that carried on for many years. It was only after taking a break from his porn habit that he realized how much more free he felt. After meeting the love of his life and having a wonderful honeymoon, he thought everything was good, until he quickly realized his struggle with porn wasn’t entirely gone. It took time and strength to realize what he was really fighting for: real love.

“Repentance is NOT asking the Lord for forgiveness with the intention to sin again.”
“The truly wise man is he who always believes the Bible against the opinion of any man.” – R. A. Torrey
Kerrigan Skelly explains how Jesus’ lust warning in Matthew 5 is absolutely serious! @ 39:00
“What I think Jesus is trying to communicate right here using hyperbole [overstatement to make a graphic point] is to teach this truth:
Do whatever it takes to get rid of the sin. Do whatever it takes. Why? Because your sin will cost you everything, everything in the end. And it’s better to lose whatever you have to lose than to keep sinning and lose Jesus and salvation. It’s better to get rid of whatever you need to get rid of to stop from going to eternal hell in the end.
Lust also many times involves the use of your hand or your hands. The same principle applies to verse 30 as to verse 29.
The question remains: is a little bit of pleasure you receive from lust worth everything: your life, your soul, your eternity? And if you answer ‘no,’ you need to prove it by your actions.”
“They keep searing their conscience [through porn] and need another thrill.”
Dennis Prager: “If pornography is a substitute for adultery it’s not awful.”
Jesus in Matthew 5 — Looking at women to lust after them is adultery:
27 “You have heard that it was said to those of old [Dennis Prager is Jewish, still in the old covenant], ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say [new covenant] to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. 30 And if your right hand causes you to sin….

What Jesus said: Adultery in the Heart (Matthew 5:27-30)
“You have heard that it was said to those of old [old covenant], ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you [new covenant] that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right hand [masturbation] causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

False doctrine starts if we conform the Word to our experience – Skelly @ 1:03:35
“Conforming the Word to your experience instead of conforming your experience to the Word is definitely a problem. That’s how false doctrine starts.”
70% of men and 30% of women in the church
“Somehow we have missed James 5:16 – “Confess your sins and pray for one another so you may be healed.”
James Perloff, author of ‘Missing Miracles, Missing Saints, mentioned this quote in a podcast.
Saint Peter the Egyptian (4th-5th century):
Some other time Peter was asked: ‘What is a servant of God?’ His answer was this: ‘As long as one practices any kind of passion he cannot be called servant of God, but he is the servant of that passion which conquers him. As long as he is conquered he cannot teach others who are conquered by the same passions, because it is shameful for him to teach before he has been freed from that passion about which he teaches.’ (source)

Bruno und Ron Paul
Curtis Sliwa talks to Ron Paul about his encounter with Sacha Baron Cohen character Bruno.
“Haughty pride is the opposite of the spirit of humility that God seeks.”
“Pride has been called the cancer of the soul, the beginning of all sin, and sin in its final form.”
“Pride is viewed as a great sin and rebellion against God because it presumes to possess excellence and glory that belong to God alone.”
“Prideful people treat others with contempt and cruelty.”
“Pride leads to disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.”
“Pride is taking the glory that belongs to God alone and keeping it for ourselves.”
“Pride is essentially self-worship.”
“Work out your salvation; pride has to go.”
“Those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
“We are not to boast about ourselves. If we want to boast, then we are to proclaim the glories of God. … It is what God says about us that makes the difference.”
“Do not be caught in this trap, pride. Fight and get delivered by the Spirit of God.”
“I did an interview with Will Knowland about sex, women, repentance, and modern culture.”
