²⁵ They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. ²⁶ Because of this, God gave them over to SHAMEFUL LUSTS. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for UNNATURAL ones. ²⁷ In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. ²⁸ Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a DEPRAVED MIND, so that they do what ought not to be done.
–Romans 1:25-28 (NIV)–

THY WORD HAVE I HID IN MINE HEART,
that I might not sin against thee.
–Psalm 119:11 (KJV)–

I PUNISH MY BODY AND ENSLAVE IT,
so that after proclaiming to others
I myself should not be disqualified.
–1 Corinthians 9:27 (NRSV)–

Homosexuals always try to give the impression they are more numerous than they actually are. Their numbers are growing, but they still represent a small percentage of our total population. Those who are given over completely to homosexuality preach that all of us have latent tendencies and could become more homo than hetero. There is no truth to that at all. Many young people who had a homosexual experience in high school or college have overcome even the memory of it and are happily married and normal. They are fortunate. Many others never got out and are now hooked. Homosexuality is not incurable. Homosexuals can and do change. Homosexual urges, no matter how strong, need not be permanent. The cure is more likely for those under 25 years who have not developed a strong attachment to one person. Those who are confirmed homosexuals stand very little chance of being cured unless they become totally desperate to change. In one survey, of 300 homosexuals interviewed, only 3% expressed a desire to change. The homosexual who proudly flaunts his way of life and scoffs at every attempt to help him is incurable. A cure is possible only in the case of one who desperately despises his homosexuality, who wants out, and who still believes it is possible to be cured. There is much controversy today about a cure for homosexuals, but I can prove, by the testimony of many I have counseled, there is a cure. It is not a hopeless addiction for anyone who wants to live a different life. God has power to change the very nature of man. I have never met a truly happy homosexual. The majority are sad, lonely, full of fear, shame, guilt, anxiety and torment. Homosexuals are being cured all over the world. God can cure you and will if you really want Him to. Desperation is the key word. Cry out in faith. –David Wilkerson

Originally from here.

It turned out that they do. I woke up and went to the site store; and saw these:

1. Understanding the Bible Commentary Set by Dr. David Sorenson.

2. John R. Rice Commentaries Set (in the dream, I’m sure it was this).

3. Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible.

In an age of humanism, agnosticism, relativism, and deconstruction, its good to know there’s some solid absolute truth oriented Independent Fundamental Baptist (IFB) commentaries on the Bible out there. In an age where most Bible commentaries are hyper-academic, or focused on Greek and Hebrew vocab words to the absence of spirituality and growing your faith in the Bible, in an age where commentaries are always questioning the supernatural and the original manuscripts as actual Scripture, in an age where a watered down seeker-sensitive gospel is the context for commenting on Scripture, its good to know there’s hellfire, blood of Jesus, gospel preaching, young earth creation KJV commentaries that you know where to go to as a Bible believer. In this vein, I’d also be inclined to point out The MacArthur Bible Commentary (Thomas Nelson, 2005) and The MacArthur New Testament Commentary (Moody, 2006). According to a recent July 2024 article by Influence magazine, the Assembly of God outlet, today’s Pentecostal pastors are using The Tyndale Commentaries, The New International Commentary, The Expositor’s Bible Commentary, and Word Biblical Commentary. ALL FOUR OF THESE BIBLE COMMENTARIES TEACH THEISTIC EVOLUTION ON GENESIS 1. So it shouldn’t be hard to see why the seeker-sensitive gospel has crept into the Assembly of God: they’re using really bad Bible commentaries that don’t teach a literalistic faith-based approach to Bible interpretation. Instead those commentaries are probably full of historical naturalism, skepticism about miracles, unnecessary linguistic distractions and rabbit trails, and tons of archaeological nonsense that have absolutely nothing to do with growing your faith in Christ; and everything to do with questioning the truthfulness of Biblical reality. All of the bold commentaries above, along with the MacArthurs, all teach young earth creation on Genesis 1; as does Clarke’s Commentary, the old school Wesleyan Arminian Methodist commentary. Charles Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, once published something called Commenting and Commentaries in 1876, in which he prioritized the following Bible commentaries, on pages 2-10, in this order: Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible (Hendrickson, 2014), Calvin’s Commentaries (Baker Books, 1974), Matthew Poole’s Commentary on the Holy Bible (Hendrickson, 1985), John Trapp’s A Commentary on the Old and New Testament (Soli Deo Gloria, 2022), John Gill’s Exposition of the Old and New Testaments (Baptist Standard Bearer, 2006) as the top Calvinist one, and Clarke’s Commentary (Schmul) as the top Wesleyan Arminian one. Answers in Genesis, the young earth creation ministry, also sells two study Bibles: The Henry Morris Study Bible and The MacArthur Study Bible. All of this thanks to a dream and a little bit of study! –J.B.

Jesus came to me. So I started to realize I’m the pope. I don’t need no robes. I’m the pontiff. I’ve been chosen by God to hold the highest rank out of all preachers in the world. Now, I couldn’t say that if Jesus didn’t really come to me! But I’m bold enough to say that because the Son of God came to me. And when I give a word to somebody, they should obey. When they don’t, they’re disrespectin’ the highest order in the land.

AN URGENT EVANGELISTIC PLEA TO THE LOST.
–J.B.–

Your love is liftin’ me up
Now I’m standin’ firm in place
Where I’ve always fallen before
I rise, I soar
I’ll never know how Your love’s liftin’ me up

Your Spirit, liftin’ me up
Surround, surrounding me
I will never be alone again
Enfold, encircle
I cannot hide from beneath Your gaze

Your mercy, liftin’ me up
Something I don’t deserve
And what I’ve failed to return
Compassion
I’m spared, redeemed
Your mercy liftin’ me and

I embrace the life
Oh precious God
Now You’re livin’ in me!

Sustaining grace, liftin’ me up
Rushin’ like a flood
And I’m swept away
Covered by Your sacrifice
Your blood, Your peace
Your Spirit, liftin’ me and

I embrace the life
Oh precious God
Now You’re livin’ in me!
