chapter number three
Philippians chapter
Chapter three finally my brethren rejoice in the Lord to write the same things to you to me indeed is not grievous
But for you it is safe beware of dogs beware of evil workers beware of the concision
we are the circumcision which worship God in the spirit and rejoice in Christ Jesus and
Have no confidence in the flesh though
I might have also have confidence in the flesh if any other man
Thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh
I'm more circumcised the eighth day of the stock of Israel the tribe of Benjamin and Hebrew of the Hebrews as
touching the law a Pharisee
concerning zeal
Persecuting the church touching the righteousness which is in the law blameless
What things were gained in me those I counted lost for Christ ye doubtless and I count all things
But lost for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord for whom I have suffered the loss of all things
And do count them but done that I may win Christ and be found in him not having mine own righteousness
Which is of the law but that which is through the faith of Christ the righteousness
Which is of God by faith that I may know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings
Being made conformable under his death if by any means I might attain under the resurrection of the dead
Not as though I had already attained either were already perfect
But I follow after if that I may apprehend that for which I am I also am I?
apprehended Christ
Brethren I count my not myself to have apprehended but this one thing I do
Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth under those things which are before I press toward the mark for the prize of high
Calling of God in Christ Jesus
Let us therefore as many as be perfect be thus minded and if anything
He be otherwise minded God shall reveal even this unto you
Nevertheless whereunto we have already attained let us walk by the same rule
Let us mind the same thing brethren be followers together of me and mark them
Which walk as ye have us for an example for many walk of whom?
I have told you often and now tell you even weeping that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ
Whose end is destruction whose God is their belly and whose glory is in their shame who mind earthly things?
For our conversation is in heaven from whence also we look for the Savior the Lord Christ Jesus
Who shall change our vile body that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body
According to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. That's great
Lord thankful for those that are gathered here today thankful Lord for a church for your word
I pray Lord that you go brother Eric with your spirit Lord help us to set aside the tears of the week
Apply the message to our life
Man, all right, we're there in Philippians chapter number three
I'm gonna really focus there on the first couple verses there before I begin
I do want to thank of course pastor Oz for this opportunity and allowing me to preach behind this pulpit here
It's a great honor and blessing to be able to do so. We're there in Philippians chapter three
We're gonna go ahead and start reading there in verse number one. The Bible reads
Finally my brethren rejoice in the Lord to write the same things to you to me indeed is not grievous
But for you it is safe Paul here is telling the Philippians here that he's telling them things in order to keep them
Safe and what he's going to tell them to keep him safe is the next verse verse 2
The Bible reads beware of dogs beware of evil workers
Beware of the concision and the title of my sermon today is beware of dogs beware of dogs
And here in verse number two, we have three different
Uh types of people that paul is bringing up, you know, paul's not saying like beware of pit bulls or rottweilers or physical dogs
No, he's talking about people and he's using kind of a derogatory term to talk about a certain type
of people and before we go and get into what the dogs are
Because I believe that it is the most cryptic of the three peoples that paul brings up
Let's talk about the immediate context and talk about the other two groups that paul brings up evil workers and the concision
In the immediate context paul goes on to talk about the concision and the concision really is talking about the circumcision
That word is very similar. He's talking about the jews. Let's keep reading in verse number three
The bible reads for we are the circumcision which worship god in the spirit and rejoice in christ jesus
And have no confidence in the flesh
Though I might also have confidence in the flesh if any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh
I more so paul is talking about a group of people that are putting their confidence in the flesh in the things that they do
The circumcision, okay, and this is what the jews in the bible are like they're trusting in their circumcision
They're teaching that you must follow the law. You must follow the commandments in order to go to heaven
They are preaching a false gospel and paul is saying hey beware beware of the concision
Beware of these people that are adding things to salvation your salvation is very clear in the bible
It's just by faith look down there at verse number nine the bible reads and be found in him not having mine
Own righteousness which is of the law but that which is through the faith of christ the righteousness which is of god
By faith you see the circumcision the jews they do not believe in the lord jesus christ
They are not trusting in jesus to save them
They're putting their confidence in their flesh and paul is saying beware of these people
Because salvation has nothing to do with the things that we do or the actions that we do
It's not by circumcision. It's not by baptism. It's not by church attendance
Bible says the righteousness of god is by faith
You know the bible says in ephesians 2 8 9 it says for by grace are you saved?
Through faith and that not of yourselves. It is the gift of god
Not of works lest any man should boast and what do the jews do they are boasting in their flesh?
They are having confidence in their flesh. Beware of people that are trying to add to salvation
Specifically in this instance, it would be the jews the concision and what are christians today?
They are allies with jews in general. They are constantly lifting up israel. They're constantly lifting up the jews
But we should beware of them. We should not have fellowship with the jews
We should not team up with the jews against the muslims
No, we should beware of them. We should stay far away from them because they're adding to the gospel
They're not saved and they're on their way to hell, you know, we are christians here. We believe in jesus and the jews reject jesus
Hey, beware of the jews turn if you would to titus chapter number one titus chapter number one
Titus chapter number one look down there at verse number 10 the bible reads
For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers
Especially they of the circumcision whose mouths must be stopped who subvert whole houses
Teaching things which they ought not for filthy
Luker's sake so here we see a group of people that are subverting whole houses that are
Deceiving people. So what are jews doing? They're deceivers
They're false prophets and they're going to subvert you they're going to
Harm you paul is saying beware of them look down there at verse number 16
The bible reads they profess that they know god but in works
They deny him being abominable and disobedient and unto every good work
Reprobate so the bible is saying is that this group of people here?
They are rejected and their works that they're doing are not clean in god's eyes. God is not pleased with them
They're doing their works to be seen of men
Hey, they profess that they know god and this is why I think a lot of christians do try to yoke up with jews
Because they think hey, you know the old testament they say they believe the old testament, you know
They're following the god of abraham and isaac and jacob. Hey, they're the descendants of abraham
Hey be not deceived of the jews today
You know, they are not godly they profess that they know god but in work
They deny him turn if you would to second timothy chapter number four
We kind of talked about the the concision there in philippians chapter number three
The second group in that verse is evil workers. Now the bible reads in ecclesiastes chapter 8 verse 11
It says because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily
Therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil
So evil worker an evil worker kind of seems like a generic term or kind of a vague term
But it's not talking about just like your average run-of-the-mill sinner
It's talking about somebody that is really a wicked sinner somebody that's above an average sinner
Someone that's trying to entice you to sin, you know, the bible says my son if sinners entice thee consent thou not
There's going to be people that are not just your average sinner where they're making mistakes and they feel sorry
No, there's people that are going to try to entice you to sin
There's people that are going to try to lure you and deceive you into sin and say hey come
You know your purse will be with us. You're going to get the money. You're going to get the fields with us
Come join us. Let us lay wait the bible talks about in proverbs chapter one. These are wicked people
The bible reads you're there in you should be in second timothy chapter number four the bible reads
In verse 14 the bible says alexander the coppersmith did me much evil
The lord reward him according to his works of whom be be thou where also?
For he hath greatly withstood our words
So here paul is bringing up alexander the coppersmith and he's saying hey be thou where what does that mean?
Be where be aware of this guy avoid this guy be careful around this guy
Because look at verse 16 the bible says at my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me
So alexander the coppersmith this guy was very deceptive and he was very successful and he's doing evil
Works we should beware of these people verse 17 notwithstanding the lord stood with me and strengthened me
That by me the preaching might be fully known and that all the gentiles might hear
And I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion and the lord shall deliver me from every evil work
And will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom to whom be glory forever and ever amen
So whether you're getting deceived by an evil work like by an alexander or whether you're being harmed by an evil work
You know, we should just beware of evil workers
If someone is super wicked and they're trying to get you to sin just stay far away from them
Because they're either trying to deceive you or harm you and really they're trying to do both
They're trying to deceive and harm you. Yeah, maybe they'll team up with you for a little while
But eventually they're going to turn their back against you and they're going to harm you as well
They're willing to harm someone else. They're willing to harm you as well
Beware of evil workers turn if you would to mica chapter number two mica chapter number two the minor prophets
You have hosea joel amos obadiah jona and then mica mica chapter number two, you know, these are not just regular
sinners here's another example here of
Evil workers mica chapter number two verse number one
The bible reads woe to them that devise iniquity and work evil upon their beds
When the morning is light they practice it because it is in the power of their hand
And they covet fields and take them by violence and houses and take them away
So they oppress a man and his house even a man and his heritage bible's talking about these people that these are oppressing people
These are people that are trying to steal large assets
Fields houses they're taking them away by force
These workers of iniquity there's evil workers. These are not just your run-of-the-mill sinners
Paul is telling you beware of wicked people beware of the wicked sinners that are trying to get you to sin
With them that are trying to harm other people. We should stay far away from evil workers
So evil workers and jews both of them. They're trying to deceive you and they're trying to harm you
So in the immediate context when the bible says beware of dogs
We can understand that they're trying to deceive you and they're trying to harm you
And both so what exactly is a dog? What is paul talking about when he says beware of
Dogs, we'll turn in your bibles to second samuel chapter number nine
The first thing we know about a dog is it's trying to deceive you and harm you secondly
When we see a term in the bible, we should compare scripture with scripture. We should see how the bible
Brings up a term what it says about a term
And we can compare philippians chapter three where it says beware of dogs with other verses that talk about dogs and we can understand
What the bible is talking about when it says beware of dogs second samuel chapter number nine
Let me get there myself real quick second samuel chapter number nine
Verse number eight the bible reads
This is mephibosheth speaking jonathan's son. It says and he bowed himself and said
What is thy servant that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am
And let's actually skip down to verse number 13. The bible says this is the same guy that's talking
It says so mephibosheth dwelt in jerusalem for he did eat continually at the king's table and was lame on both
His feet so we see some little more information about mephibosheth
He is considering himself a dead dog and we see in the text that mephibosheth is lame on both feet
You know, he's not able to walk or maybe he has some kind of condition here
But this guy does not really have any benefit to bring to david
He doesn't have any value to bring to the kingdom to the table
But david is showing him grace and he's allowing him to sit at his table and eat continually for the rest of his life
So mephibosheth was shown grace by king david mephibosheth was jonathan's son and david wanted to show him grace
And mephibosheth is saying hey, I didn't really deserve this. I'm a dead dog. What is he saying? He's saying hey
I have no value to bring you you're giving me grace even though I have nothing to bring forth
So point number one not really a point but an attribute of a dog is it's something that has
No value and this is something that's brought up a few times if you do a study on the word dog
It's referring to somebody that has no value the bible will bring up like a dead dog or a dog's head
You know a dog in the bible often refers to someone
That has no value. Okay. What's another thing that a dog can kind of picture?
Turn if you would to exodus chapter number 22 a dog has something of no value and really if we think about
A dog in general dogs really don't do a whole lot
I get that there's like herd dogs and guard dogs, but that's kind of like a rare
Subset of dogs that do that, you know dogs don't really provide the greatest meat
And you know if alex is listening, he probably got offended
He could probably think of like 15 different ways to cook a dog
But here's the thing dogs are not going to give you meat good meat
They don't really have wool. They're not really going to do much work for you. They just kind of sit there
They just kind of scavenge on things. They just kind of lick wounds and stuff. They just don't really do a whole lot
They're just low yielding
Animals, and it's not wicked or sinful to own a dog
You know
I've owned a dog throughout my life and you know
I don't think there's a problem if someone likes to have dogs or likes to have company with dogs whatever
But they're not going to really do anything for you
Even if you have some kind of like mouse problem or kind of pest issue
They're not going to really capture those mice. They're not going to really do a great job catching squirrels or catching chipmunks
They're just kind of dumb animals. They're not really great at yielding anything for you
Okay now exodus chapter number 22 we get another attribute of a dog the bible reads in exodus 22 verse
31 the bible says and ye shall be holy men unto me
Neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field ye shall cast it to the dogs
So on one hand you have holy men on the other hand you have dogs
Okay, it's saying hey cast the unclean torn beast cast that to the dogs
Give the unclean stuff to the dogs. Why?
Because dogs are pictured as an unclean beast if you look at the
In the levitical law where it brings up the animals that are clean and unclean dogs are just an unclean beast
The bible talks about how if it goes on its paws, it's unclean a dog obviously has paws
So a dog would be an unclean animal in the old testament now. Yes, technically you can eat dogs alex
You know you're good
But you know dogs are an unclean beast. Okay, and here in this here in this verse is talking about hey
Send the unclean stuff to the dogs because dogs picture like an unclean person
You know we as christians we're holy people we're set apart but dogs are something that are set without the camp
They're not set apart. They're super unclean and ungodly the picture an unclean person
The bible says in psalm chapter 68 verse 23
It says that thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies
And the tongue of thy dogs in the same throughout the bible. We see dogs are licking blood. They're licking sores
They're eating dead humans. They're just eating things that are torn of beasts
They're just eating kind of disgusting things that we wouldn't really think of they're eating vomit
You know dogs will pretty much eat anything and I know this i've had a dog
Literally eat just about anything, you know, except his dog food. All right
He didn't want to eat his dog food
But he wanted to eat everything else literally everything else and that's what dogs are they just eat whatever they you know
Anything they will literally eat anything. Okay, so a dog is a super unclean beast. It has no filter
It's just an unclean person turn if you would to psalm chapter 22
Psalm chapter number 22. Here's another thing that a dog
Represents or pictures in the bible psalm chapter 22
Verse number 15 this psalm is prophetic of the lord jesus christ
The bible reads in psalm 22 15
My strength is dried up like a potsherd and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws
And that was brought me into the dust of death for dogs have compassed me
The assembly of the wicked haven't closed me. They pierced my hands and my feet
I may tell all my bones they look and stare upon me now when jesus was on the cross
He had a bunch of dogs is what the bible says
Compassing him encompassing him and the bible kind of uses it
Um, the assembly of the wicked dogs compassing him
It's kind of using those terms synonymously that a dog is just a wicked person a dog can just picture someone that is
Super evil someone that is wicked. So so far we've learned that dogs, you know, they don't really have a lot of value
Dogs are an unclean beast
Dogs represent a wicked person
Turn if you went to deuteronomy chapter number 23. Here's another thing that dogs represent in the bible
Deuteronomy chapter 23 pay close attention to the wording here deuteronomy chapter 23 look down at verse 17
The bible says there shall be no whore of the daughters of israel nor a sodomite of the sons of israel
thou shall not bring the hire of a whore or the price of a dog into the house of the lord thy god
For any vow for even both these are abomination unto the lord thy god
If you notice there verse number 17 says there shall be no whore of the daughters of israel in verse 18
It says thou shalt not bring the higher of a whore into the house of the Lord thy God also in verse 17
It says nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel in verse 18
It says or the price of a dog into the house of the Lord thy God
So what the Bible is doing here is it's giving us some
Parallelism here in saying that a dog and a sodomite these are the same a dog is a sodomite a sodomite is a dog a
sodomite or a homosexual a faggot is something that is represented by a
Dog, okay, and if we look at all the other characteristics
They also kind of represent a sodomite an unclean beast a violent person a wicked person
You know something that has no value. You know, the Bible is painting a picture here that a sodomite is represented by a
Dog, okay, and you know, this isn't just like an all-inclusive list. There's more verses that talk about dogs
There's more attributes that you know
The Bible brings up about dogs and you know
There's other verses as well turn if you would to Matthew chapter number 7 Matthew chapter number 7 the Bible reads in Acts 20
Verse 29 for I know this that after my departing shall grievous
Wolves enter in among you not sparing the flock now a wolf isn't the same as dog as a dog
But they are related and the Bible is comparing false prophets to wolves
You're there in Matthew chapter number seven. Let's look down there at verse number 15
Matthew 7 15 the Bible reads
Beware of false prophets which come to you and sheep's clothing but inwardly they are ravening
Wolves so oftentimes throughout the Bible the Bible compares false prophets to ravening wolves
Okay, and wolves and dogs these are related, you know
Jesus when he's referring to Herod he says go ye and tell that fox
Which is another kind of relative of dogs and wolves. So a dog a wolf a fox
These are all kind of related
So a sodomite a false prophet a really wicked leader or someone that's a reprobate in leadership
You know, this is kind of what the Bible is painting when it's talking about dogs wolves. These are predatory animals
These are unclean animals. So what exactly is Paul referring to when he says a dog?
I don't think it necessarily has to be exclusive to like sodomites or something
I think it could be referring to false prophets and sodomites as well. Just kind of reprobates in general
I mean the rest of the passage beware of evil workers
A lot of these are reprobates beware of the concision. Hey, a lot of those are reprobates
So I think when the Bible saying beware of dogs
He's saying hey beware of sodomites beware of false prophets beware of these really evil people these reprobates and today in this sermon
I'm gonna be really focusing in on the specific dog the sodomites. Okay, so I'm gonna have two points
This morning and point number one if you would turn in your Bibles to Habakkuk chapter number two, they're very simple points
point number one is men beware of dogs men beware of
Dogs you're there in Habakkuk chapter number two. They're myself real quick Habakkuk chapter number two
Look down there verse number 15 the Bible reads
Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink that puttest thy bottle to him and makest him
Drunken also that thou mayest look on their nakedness
Now this verse can be a little complex and a little difficult to unpack because you have to look at the pronouns here
It's talking about thou him in this verse. There's kind of three people
It says woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink
And put us thy bottle to him and make us him drunken also that thou
May us look on their nakedness and it's saying woe unto him because he's getting another guy drunk and he's using
Someone else's bottle but woe unto this guy because he's getting drunk also and you know, they're getting naked
They're getting uncovered the Bible says in verse 16
It says thou art filled with shame for glory drink thou also and let thy foreskin be uncovered
The cup of the Lord's right hand shall be turned unto thee and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory
You know what if you're hanging out with sodomites and you're drinking alcohol, you know what?
You might just get naked and you know if you're drunk and you're naked and you're with a bunch of other guys
Hey, anything could happen, you know, I'm just warning you anything can happen if you're in that situation
So don't drink alcohol, especially with a sodomite because you never know what's gonna get happy
You could literally get raped. Okay, and it has happened in the Bible turn if you would to Genesis chapter number 9 Genesis
Chapter number 9 you say this is kind of extreme to say that you're gonna get raped by a sodomite
You know, you're gonna get raped because he drank some alcohol
Well, here's the thing I have to make you aware of these things because this stuff does actually happen
It even happens to good men, you know
Noah is gonna be the example that we're gonna be looking at Noah is a righteous guy
The Bible calls him a preacher of righteousness
God had mercy on Noah. He killed the whole world essentially but spared Noah, you know, Noah was a righteous guy
He was a good guy, but Noah had an issue here
Genesis 9 verse 20 the Bible says and Noah began to be in husbandmen and he planted a vineyard
And he drank of the wine and was drunken and he was uncovered within his tent
Now, this is the first problem that Noah had is that he got drunk and you know what he ends up getting
Uncovered within his tent the Bible says in verse 22 and ham the father of Canaan
saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brethren without and
Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it upon both their shoulders and
Went backward and covered the nakedness of their father and their faces were backward and they saw not their father's
nakedness verse 24 and Noah awoke from his wine and
Knew what his younger son had done unto him
It doesn't say that he realized that his son saw him naked or whatever
It says he realized, you know, he knew what his younger son had done unto him
You know his son did something really disgusting and wicked unto him because his son was a sodomite and you know
Noah probably thought he was safe because he had just gotten off the ark, you know
There's not a whole lot of people he thought all the wicked people were gone
But know there was one that snuck onto the ship and you know, there's always gonna be that sodomite
There's always gonna be that remnant kind of hanging around
You know in the Kings one King gets rid of the sodomites in the land and then the next King is like getting rid of the
Remnant he's getting rid of the excess that's left over because there's always gonna be a sodomite left over
It's just a reality sodomites are just continually coming out people are continually rejecting God
You know Ham was married, you know, he was married to a woman. He had a wife the Bible says he has children
But here's the thing sodomites go both ways
Okay, and you know Noah thought he was probably safe because Ham was married to a wife
There's children but you know anything is on the table when it comes to sodomites
That's why you need to be aware of sodomites because they will literally take advantage of you
They will literally rape you and we look at verse 25 the Bible says and he said
Cursed be Canaan a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren
That's not really a reaction that you would have for just someone stumbling in on you and seeing your nakedness
You know, this is something that happened that was wicked and disgusting the Bible doesn't give us details and I'm thankful for that
But the Bible does indicate that something did happen and you know
We ought to beware of dogs and men beware of dogs, you know, they're going after you the Bible says, you know
Even their men leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another men with men
So there are men out there that are lusting after other men and that have a desire to potentially even
Manipulate you abuse you or be with you as a man. Okay, so we ought to beware of dogs turn if you would to Genesis
Chapter number 19 Genesis 19. Here's another story Genesis 19. Look at verse number four
So let's start reading in verse 1 the Bible says and there came two angels to Sodom at even and lot sat in the gate
Of Sodom and lot seeing them rose up to meet them and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground and he said
Behold now my lords turn in I pray you into your servant's house and
Terry all night and wash your feet and you shall rise up early and go on your ways and they said nay
but we will abide in the streets all night and he pressed upon them greatly and they turned in unto him and
Entered into his house and he made them a feast and did bake unleavened bread and they did eat
So these guys there's two angels they look like men
They come to the city of Sodom lot kind of goes out to meet them and he's offering them to stay at his house
And they're going now. We'll just kind of stay hang out in the streets and lost like pressing on him
So he's like no, bro. You don't want to go out there, you know come into my house
There's some weird people out there come into my place
You'll be safe and you know, he's pressing upon them sore and they do end up staying with lot
The Bible says in verse 4 but before they lay down the men of the city even the men of Sodom
compass the house round both old and young all the people from every quarter and they called unto Lot and said unto him
Where are the men which came in to thee this night?
Bring them out unto us that we may know them these guys are just
Openly saying that they want to know these men and when it uses the word no
What that means the Bible says and Adam knew his wife Eve and she bear a son, you know
When it's saying no is talking about a physical relationship
Okay, and these men see these new men in the city and they're like, hey, we want to know them
We want to abuse these guys. We want to rape these guys
You know, this is the attitude that these thoughtomites are having it's like these guys just came into the city and immediately the first thought
I want to rape them. It's like this is how wicked these people are
This is why we need to be aware of these people. These are not just you're nice friendly
You know just a little different people. No, these are extremely wicked people
The first thought they have on their mind is right. The first thought they have on their mind is abuse
They want to harm people, you know, and they want to deceive people as well. They'll use the flatteries right away
They'll try to act very nice and friendly and fruity or whatever
They're doing this to try to take advantage of you to deceive you to harm you and really both
They're trying to both deceive and harm you beware of dogs men
Because they will try to abuse you and they'll gather together and you say well
We don't really have that issue as Sodom because these were really concentrated
We don't really have that issue in Oklahoma City or you know, there's not like a huge concentration. This doesn't really happen
I don't know. Maybe this does happen on like 36th and Penn
I mean it could don't move to 36th and Penn folks
All right, you know, this could literally happen to you if you do that, you know
We should stay away from those thought of my districts
We should stay away from sodomites, you know, obviously, you know, you're not gonna be able to get away from them entirely
I get that you're gonna have some neighbors. You're gonna have some co-workers. I get that
I understand that and there's not much a whole lot you can do
But hey one thing you can do is just beware of them separate from them
Hey, if you have to work with them, hey, keep it work only don't talk with them
Don't hang out with them at all
If there's some work vent work function or whatever and there's gonna be a sodomite there
Don't go out and hang out with them. No stay away from the sodomites beware of the sodomites turn if you would to
2nd Peter chapter 2 verses 6 and 8 I'm gonna read for you judges chapter 19 verse 22
This is another story the Bible reads in judges 1922. It's kind of a similar story to Genesis 19
It says now as they were making their hearts marry behold the men of the city
certain sons of Belial beset the house round about and beat at the door and
Spake to the master of the house the old man sang bring forth the man that came into thine house
That we may know him very similar story where you have this guy and his concubine
they come into this city and this guy offers them to lodge and he they stay at his house and
The very first thing they see that man come in they see his concubine come in though. Hey bring out the man
Hey men, beware of dogs. They're gonna go after the men
They want the men and sometimes they don't get the men, but that's what they're after they want it
So beware of them. You're there in second Peter chapter number two
Here's another thing that could happen to you if you decide to fellowship with dogs or you decide
You know, I don't really want to break off this person in my life. They're my sister. They're my brother, you know
They're my uncle. They're my relative. They were a childhood friend. I don't really want to cut that person off
Maybe I want to try to get them safe
Well, here's kind of another issue that you're gonna have if you just you know
Try to push this off or try to not separate from these people. The Bible says in second Peter chapter number two
versus
Six through eight second Peter 2 6 the Bible says and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes
Condemned them with an overthrow making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly and delivered just lot
vexed with the filthy
Conversation of the wicked if you don't cut these people out of your life
You're gonna be vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked. It's gonna bother you day in and day out
Hey, just cut the cord stay away from them cut off that fag brother cut off that fag sister
Cut off that uncle that aunt or whatever cut them out of your life, you know
Stay away from them. Beware of them. It's gonna vex you and you know, sometimes you can get vexed so bad
You know Bible talks about people getting vexed unto death like Samson getting bothered
You know, this thing can literally vex you unto death
Okay
Verse number 8 the Bible says for that righteous man dwelling among them in seeing and hearing
Vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds
You know if you hang out with your fag brother
You're gonna hear a bunch of disgusting things their unlawful deeds and it's gonna vex you
The accent is gonna vex you and the things that they do is just gonna bother you and bother you and bother you and bother you
Until you die. Okay, so just cut them off now have nothing to do with them. Beware of them
They're trying to get you they're trying to rape you they're trying to vex you
You these sodomites are literally trying to vex people the protesters as steadfast Baptist Church or at first works Baptist Church
I don't remember they were talking about how they were trying to just be as filthy as possible
So that way can they could just vex the people that are going to that church. That's what sodomites are like
They're trying to vex you. They're trying to harm you. They're trying to bother your mind
They're trying to make it so that you are just vexed from day to day that you're just bothered throughout your whole life
Beware of dogs stay away from them
Hey, if you don't have any sodomite person that you're close to at all, you're not really gonna have this vexation
Okay, but if you do there's a danger that they're gonna vex you they're gonna rape you they're gonna take advantage of you
Hey stay away from dogs. Beware of dogs men point number two women beware of dogs
And really this is kind of what provoked this sermon
Kind of a while ago
I went to the Philippines for a couple months and I would preach the gospel there and I asked people
You know if they're LGBT or whatever just kind of groups that preached to groups of people and I want to see who got
Saved and who didn't so I'm trying to do that to to count salvations
Which ones got saved and not also sometimes there were just be groups of like all fags
So I'd be able to ask that question and they all say yes
I'm like, all right, you guys don't need me to preach this and I just kind of leave but there'd be times
Oftentimes this is all the time in the Philippines. There'd be like a group. It's like four girls and a guy
I'm like, hey is anybody here LGBT? It's like the guy raises his hand. It's like every single time
It's like a big group and it's women
There's almost like always a fag in the Philippines and you know, it's the same in America too when I was growing up in school
You know oftentimes there'd be like a group of girls and they're just be like the fag guy would just be hanging out with the girls
Just like every single time
It's not as common with the guys that have like some dyke or some butch or whatever in their group
It just seemed like it's just more common for women to be friends with sodomites for whatever reason
And this kind of idea is kind of what provoked this sermon
And I think the reason why is because women in general are more deceived
Okay, and that's just the reality the Bible teaches that Adam was not deceived by the serpent
It says that Eve was the one that was deceived, so the children of the serpent the children of the devil
It makes sense that they would be the women would be more deceived by the children of the devil than the men
Now turn if you would to Romans chapter number one Romans chapter number one
I want to give you guys a warning of what these people are like
And you know if you're preaching on the sodomites pretty much have to go to Romans 1 at some point
So here we are Romans chapter one tells us just how wicked these people are just how harmful these people are
Let's start reading there in verse number 27
It says and likewise also the men leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another
men with men working that which is unseemly and
Receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meat and even as they did not like to retain God and their knowledge
God gave them over to a reprobate mind to do those things which are not convenient being filled with all
unrighteousness
So these sodomites these faggots are being filled constantly with how much unrighteousness some unrighteousness
some sins no all
unrighteousness
Anything is on the table with the sodomite
Anything okay, you might see him as just a dork or some dweeb skinny stick that you know has some kind of lisp
No, this guy is dangerous, and you know yeah
He might you know be weak now
But he could just be getting filled with all unrighteousness and just cause him to do you know more unrighteousness in the future
You know I think it's interesting that oftentimes like pedophiles are usually like older
And I think that's because you know a sodomite you know they're getting filled with more unrighteousness every single day
So as they get older, they're kind of more capable of doing you know gross things and not that like a day one reprobate is
Incapable of doing like pedophilia or something, but it's just the reality is is more common to be in the old people
But anyways kind of getting off topic here what the Bible is saying is that they're being filled with all
Unrighteousness and it gives us kind of a sample of those things brings up fornication wickedness covetousness maliciousness
full of envy murder
Debate deceit malignity whispers back fighters haters of God
Dispiteful proud boasters inventors of evil things
disobedient to parents without understanding
covenant breakers without natural affection
implacable
Unmerciful 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. So not only are these people super wicked
Not only are they being filled with all unrighteousness, but they're happy when someone harms somebody else
They're happy when another sodomite goes out and sodomizes somebody they're happy when another sodomite rapes somebody
They're happy when another sodomite goes out and commits pedophilia
These people you know, they have pleasure in themselves doing it and also pleasure in other people doing these things
These are not just friendly people that are a little weird. No, these people are super wicked. Hey women
beware of dogs, okay, and
You know the Bible tells us in Genesis 13 13 it says but the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord
Exceedingly, okay. So these people are not just your average sinner
I get everyone's a sinner these people are exceedingly sinful
These people are over-the-top and these people are capable of doing anything and I've kind of heard this idea
Before where it's like well, I don't think he's really a Romans one sodomite, you know
I think there is kind of fixing him, you know, that is a stupid idea or the idea that well, you know
He was gay, but now he went through conversion therapy and now he's all right
Let me show you conversion therapy in the Bible turn if you went to second Peter chapter number two
Here's some conversion therapy for you second Peter chapter number two and people kind of have this idea that well
I just want to reach him, you know, yeah, he's a little weird
I don't really like him, but he's my brother. I want him to get saved
No, you just need to cut the cord on him. You need to say no it's over because once you're reprobate
It's too late. Once you're a sodomite. There's no saving you. We're there in second Peter chapter two
We kind of read a little bit earlier where it talked about
Lot and really this whole chapter is talking about false prophets and it brings up the sodomites because they're kind of in the same category
but verse numbers
17 really kind of talks about these people and kind of how
The way they are the Bible says in second Peter chapter 2 verse 17
It says these are wells without water
Clouds that are carried with the tempest to whom to whom the mist of darkness is reserved forever
So the Bible says that these people have their place reserved their tickets punched. They're going to the outer darkness
They're gonna burn in the lake of fire forever. Their ticket is already punched. It's already sealed
They are going to hell no matter what let's keep reading in verse 18
It says for when they speak great swelling words of vanity they allure through the lusts of the flesh
Through much wantonness those that were clean escaped from them who live in error while they promised them liberty
They themselves are the servants of corruption for of whom a man is overcome of the same as he brought in bondage
So here we see these people are kind of deceptive in a sense and what were kind of the movies that came out?
Sodomite deception because there's kind of this deception out there that these people aren't reprobate that they're just kind of
Normal people a little weird, but they're still fixable, you know, these people are not fixable. There's no fixing him
There's no fixing her. Okay, these people are without fix. All right, but they're deceptive. They promise people liberty
But they are the servants of corruption. Let's keep reading in verse 20
It says for if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
They are again entangled therein and overcome the latter end is worse with them than the beginning
So what I kind of think of this first is someone that's wicked that kind of gets maybe exposed to Christianity or they get exposed to Jesus
Or some of the Word of God if they were super wicked before and they don't really like God and then they kind of get an
Opportunity to get saved and God's like hey
Here's a chance to get saved or maybe someone invites them or to church or whatever, you know some kind of you know
Exposure to Christianity in their life or a gospel presentation or whatever if they see that and they kind of overcome that and they reject
That and they go back to their wickedness and want nothing to do with God
The Bible says the latter end is worse with them than the beginning
Let's keep reading verse 21 for it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness
Does that sound like somebody that can be saved?
If it's someone the Bible saying hey, it's better for them to not have known the way of righteousness
Sounds like this person could not be saved God is literally saying hey
It's better if they were never preached to it's better if they never heard the gospel. That's someone that can't be saved
Okay, God is saying hey this person the gospel is gonna have no use to them
It's better that they just didn't even hear it at all. These people are non redeemable redeemable
Okay, for it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness
Then after they have known it to turn from the Holy Commandment delivered unto them
Here's your conversion therapy verse 22, but it has happened unto them according to the true proverb
The dog is turned to his own vomit again. You know what the conversion therapy is. It's when the dog vomits
That's your conversion therapy. He gets rid of the uncleanness that's in his body. But what does he do?
He goes right back to the vomit
Okay, let's keep reading and the sow that was washed to were wallowing in the mire
You know, you can give a pig a bath all day long, but it's still a pig and it's still filthy
And it's gonna go back into the mud. There's no fixing these people. Okay, there's no converting these people
There's no conversion therapy that's gonna fix. There's no pressure washer that's gonna change a pig to a human
Okay, once it's a pig. It's a pig. All right, it's born a pig. It's a pig today. It's a pig tomorrow. It's a pig forever
Okay, you're born a dog today. You're a dog tomorrow. You're a dog the next day
You're a dog forever. Okay, once you're a dog, you're a dog doesn't matter how much you vomit up
Doesn't matter how much trash and filth you've eaten and vomit it up
You're just gonna go right back to that vomit and this is what sodomites are
Yes, some of them will get clean for a little while for a couple weeks
Yeah, they go to church and they try to get clean or whatever, but you know what a couple weeks later
They're back at it molesting children. They're back at it abusing people men women boy girl. There's no discrimination for them
They will abuse anything. Okay. These people are dogs. These people are swine
These are unclean animals. These are dirty disgusting
Filthy people don't be deceived by them. Don't be deceived when the dog vomits up. Don't be deceived by that
Don't be deceived when the pig is clean. Oh, it looks clean. It's just a normal pig
No, it's gonna go right back into that Meyer. It's gonna go right back into the mud. It's just gonna get dirty again
There's no fixing these people even if there is some kind of temporary fix these people once they're damned
They're damned forever once they're done. They're done. Okay, so your sodomite brother or whatever, you know
Him getting fixed or whatever conversion therapy. That's not gonna last. He's gonna go right back to his filthiness. He's gonna be wicked
That's why I just cut them off entirely if they were ever a fag or whatever cut them off
Okay, it doesn't matter how much they tell you they've changed and they love God cut them off
Okay, turn if you would have second timothy chapter number three
You should be no surprise when these people lie if the devil is a liar and the father of it
Yeah, why would it be a shock that these thought of my slides funny?
It's so funny when I hear people say like well, I know it's not a might that saved. He said he believes in Jesus
Really? Okay. Where's that in the Bible? You're there in second timothy chapter number three
Let's kind of read some details about these people. This passage is very similar to Romans chapter one
Let's start reading in verse number one. The Bible reads this know also that in the last days
Perilous time shall come for men shall be lovers of them their own selves covetous boasters proud
blasphemers
Disobedient to parents unthankful unholy without natural affection
truce breakers false accusers
incontinent fierce
Despisers of those that are good traitors heady high-minded
Lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God know this list sounds very similar to the one in Romans 1 talking about a sodomite
Okay, and if we keep reading the Bible says having a form of godliness
But denying the power thereof from such turn away
Okay, when you see someone that has these attributes someone that's a dog someone that's a sodomite
We should turn away from these people and hey some of them have a form of godliness
Some of them say hey, I'm a Christian. I go to church. I read the Bible
I pray but the Bible says they have a form of godliness but denying the power thereof
Hey, there's a verse that's coming to mind that's talking about the power
Romans 1 16 where it says for I'm not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto
Salvation unto everyone that believeth unto the Jew first and also to the Greek Bible says that the power of God is the gospel
So these people they claim to believe in God they claim to be Christians, but they deny the power
They don't believe the gospel. Okay, and what chapter is Romans 1 16 in it's in Romans chapter 1 because the Romans 1 sodomite
There are people that are rejecting the gospel. Okay, these people it doesn't matter
How godly they look on the outside how many church attendances they've been to oh, they're a youth group leader or whatever
They're a singer at the church. No, they might have a form of godliness, but they deny the power of and hey turn away from them
And let's keep reading in verse number six
The Bible says for this sort are they which creep into houses and lead captive silly men? No silly
Women laden with sins led away with diverse lusts
Hey beware women these people are taking captive silly women
Okay, oftentimes at these mega churches where these false prophets obvious reprobates are in charge
It's just like 75% of the audience is just like old women
Okay, because just the reality is these wolves and dogs they take advantage of women just because you know
They are the weaker vessel. They are easily easier to be deceived and that's not an attack women
That's just the reality of what it is. There's just more easy to be deceived and you know specifically here
These guys are going into houses and leading captives silly women laden with sins led away with divers lusts
It keeps talking about them
It says ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth
Now as Janice and Jamboree's withstood Moses. So do these also resist the truth men of corrupt minds. Here's another word
Reprobate concerning the faith similarity between this and Romans 1 is very similar
So this person is a false prophet or sodomite oftentimes just a reprobate. Okay, someone that's unable to get saved anyone
That's a reprobate was a false prophet or sodomite or whatever, you know, they're doing
Stay away from them have nothing to do with them turn away from them is what the Bible says
Turn if you would to judges chapter number 19 judges chapter number 19
Because women might think like all these people in the Philippines and in America as well. They might think well, you know, he's weird
Yeah, he's a fag or whatever. But you know, he's a homo. He's a homo. He's gay. He's just he's only attracted to guys, right?
That's just his thing. You know, this is a stupid thought to have let's look at judges chapter 19
I read a verse earlier
Let's look at verse number 23 the Bible says and the man the master of the house went out unto them and said unto them
May my brethren nay, I pray you do not so wickedly seeing that this man is come into mine house
Do not this folly so he's addressing the sodomites that are trying to get the man that came in to the house
Let's keep reading in verse 24
Listen to this is a scary verse behold
Here is my daughter a maiden and his concubine them
I will bring out now and humble you them and do with them what seemeth good unto you
But unto this man do not so vile a thing. Hey men
Don't have this idea that sodomites are only attracted to men either. Don't just let your daughters hang out with sodomites. Don't think well
He's gay. He's never gonna sleep with my daughter or whatever. No, he definitely can let's keep reading in the passage verse 25
But the men would not harken to him
so the man took his concubine and brought her forth unto them and they knew her and abused her all
The night until the morning and when the day began to spring they let her go
So what do these sodomites do they knew her and abused her and let's keep reading verse 26
then came the woman in the dawning of the day and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was
till it was light and her lord rose up in the morning and
Opened the doors of the house and went out to go his way and behold
The woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of his house and her hands were upon the threshold
And he said unto her up and let us be going but none answered
then the man took her upon an ass and the man rose up and got him unto his place and when he was coming to
His house he took a knife and laid hold on his concubine and divided her together
With her bones into 12 pieces and sent her into all the coasts of Israel
It's a pretty graphic story and really what ends up happening to this woman is she gets raped
She gets abused and she ends up dying
Okay, this is kind of a really sad story where this woman just gets completely taken advantage of but you know
This could literally happen to you. This could happen to your daughter
This could happen to you know, one of your family members or friends or whatever. This can happen
You know, this is not just a story just like an exciting story to read. You know, it's just a very interesting story
No, it's in the story
It's in the Bible because this stuff actually does happen and maybe it won't happen today when you guys are hanging out of the park
But you know what there could come a day where you go to the park and you don't come back
Okay, that could definitely happen. Hey women beware of dogs
Okay, they can abuse you they can destroy you and they will the Bible talks about how they will and they did in the Bible
Turn if you would to Genesis chapter 19. Here's another way that women can be affected by sodomites
Genesis chapter 19 look down at verse number 14
The Bible reads and Lot went out and spake unto his sons-in-law
Which married his daughters and said up get you out of this place for the Lord will destroy the city
But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons-in-law and when the morning arose
Then the angels hasten Lot saying arise take thy wife and thy two daughters which are here
Lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city
There's this idea here that you can be consumed in the iniquity of the city
You can be consumed in someone else's sins
Okay, maybe they won't rape and abuse you whatever but you can still die with them
Okay, you can still be consumed in their sins
I mean notice verse 14 it talks about how Lot speak unto his sons-in-law which married his daughters
So lots daughters chose the things of Sodom over, you know escaping that and going with God's people lot
They decided to say in Sodom and they ended up getting consumed in the iniquity of Sodom skip down to verse 24
The Bible reads then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah
brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven and he overthrew those cities and all the plain and all the
Inhabitants of the cities and that which grew upon the ground but his wife
Looked back from behind him and she became a pillar of salt
The reality is lot is not the one that looked back
It was lots wife and what did Jesus say in Luke chapter 13? He says remember lots wife
He didn't say remember a lot and yeah, he brought up lot
He brought up, you know, hey, it's gonna be as in the days of lot
But he's trying to remind you of lots wife because oftentimes women just naturally are more caring
They're more, you know tender towards things. They kind of have more of a bleeding heart, which hey isn't isn't a bad thing
If you have children, hey, you should be caring towards them and that's good
You know, they have some affection that men just can't provide fully
So that's a strength that women have but it can also be used to their detriment and they could have this
Bleeding heart or care for people that are sodomized to think well, I feel bad for that person, you know
I really wish they would get saved
You know, I think there is some kind of fixing them
But you know them feeling bad for these people and feeling bad when God judges them
You know don't have that attitude of being a bleeding heart where you see Sodom and Gomorrah
You hear about Sodom and Gomorrah getting destroyed and you just kind of look back and look upon it and say man
I feel bad for these people
Don't be like Lot's wife and you know if you feel bad for the sodomites you might just become a pillar of salt
You might just die like Lot's two daughters seem it seemed like he had two daughters that were in the city that were married
To those sons-in-law's, you know, they died as well in the iniquity of Sodom. Hey, you might not get raped
But hey, you might you know
God might punish you because you're hanging out with these people you might get destroyed in their iniquity
Okay turn if you would to second Kings chapter number 23 second Kings chapter number 23
Here's another example of getting destroyed in the iniquity of sodomites second Kings chapter number 23
Look down there at verse number seven. This is King Josiah. The Bible says
Second Kings 23 verse 7
It reads and he break down the houses of the sodomites that were by the house of the Lord where the women
Wove hangings for the grove notice here these sodomites their houses get destroyed and who's hanging out with the sodomites?
Women women that were weaving hangings with the grove just because the reality is is women are just more likely to be deceived by sodomites
But you know if you hang out with the sodomites you're hanging out at their house
Hey, maybe that house might fall through and you might die. Okay, literally you might die
Okay, and the Bible doesn't necessarily give an indication on whether the sodomites were put to death or if the women died or whatever
But this is obviously a huge financial loss. Imagine just losing your house, you know, that's that's a big loss
And you're just kind of like you got no house. You got nowhere to stay this these women
They're weaving hangings for the Grove
I'm sure they're making money from that their businesses get destroyed, you know
If you're hanging out with these people you're gonna you could lose your job, you know, you could lose your house
You could die you can get raped. These are the things that literally happen from sodomites. This is why you should beware of
Dogs, let's finish up and Philippians chapter number three
We're just gonna take a look one last time at this passage
Philippians chapter number three Philippians chapter three Bible reads in verse one
Finally my brethren rejoice in the Lord to write the same things to you to me indeed is not
Grievous, you know the point of the sermon you I don't necessarily like preaching a sermon like this
You know, it is kind of an uncomfortable thing to say but you know Paul here is saying also
Hey, you know, it's not grievous to me, you know, but for you it is safe
You know, the reason why I'm preaching this sermon is to try to keep you safe. Hey children, you know, be safe beware
You know if someone is a sodomite or if they're gay or faggot or whatever, you know
If you hear someone is like that stay far away from them and you know children oftentimes don't really have a choice
They go to the family function and there is a sodomite there
They don't really have a choice in that but children just hey beware if there's a sodomite at some kind of event
Stay as close as you can to mom and dad stay far away from those people because those people will abuse you
They will hurt you they will harm you and they will try to deceive you
Okay, so stay far away from these people
The reason why I'm preaching this sermon is to keep you guys safe men beware of dogs women beware of dogs
Beware of dogs beware of evil workers beware of the concision beware of these people
Anything is on the table with these people. These are not just your average sinners. They will abuse you
They will harm you they will try to deceive you and yeah, they can rape and kill you literally men women boys and girls
Anything is on the table beware of these people. Okay, let's pray your father
thank you for the word and thank you for the warnings that you do give us in your word help us to be cautious in our
Life and protect us from these evil beasts Lord in Jesus name. I pray. Amen turn to
