I sought for a man among them,
that should make up the hedge,
and stand in the gap before me for the land,
that I should not destroy it: but I found none.
–Ezekiel 22:30 (KJV)–

The smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever:
and they have no rest day nor night.
–Revelation 14:11 (KJV)–

Hanging out at the local high school
Making a whole lot of little fools

I know about peer pressure
Tell all the boys to watch out for me
I’ve learned my free lesson
Warn all the boys
They better watch out for me

Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no

Giving in is the name of the game
Rock the boat, all you get is pain

I know about peer pressure
Dog-eat-dog, but I’m beginning to see
I’ve learned my free lesson
Tell all the boys
They better watch out for me

Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no

I won’t bow, peer pressure
Tell all the boys to watch out for me
I’m learning free lessons
That puts a fire burning inside of me

Oh, peer pressure
Oh
Oh, peer pressure
Oh

Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no

I won’t bow
I won’t bow

–GENESIS 5 (NIV)–

Pray louder! He is a god! Maybe he is day-dreaming or relieving himself, or perhaps he’s gone off on a trip! Or maybe he’s sleeping, and you’ve got to wake him up!
–Elijah in 1 Kings 18:27 (GNT)–

How stubborn can you be? How can you be so heartless and disobedient? You’re just like your ancestors. They always opposed the Holy Spirit, and so do you!
–Stephen in Acts 7:51 (GW)–

It might be said that the greatest revivalist sermons were by Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and Charles Finney–because they, more than any others, emphasized extremely vivid and terrifying imagery of the lake of fire, urgent fervent emotional warning calls to recognize personal sin, repent and be converted immediately, and to not delay because today is the day of salvation. The following sins were named and argued against: pride, vanity, deceit, disobedience to God, apathy, fornication, moral laxity, and drunkenness. Confident, bold, or impressive is what we mean when we say, “That’s gangster” in slang. Its not an endorsement of criminal behavior; its just a street way of saying, “That dude’s really got some guts.” We might even say, those are the OGs (the original gangsters) of such: yeah…Edwards, Whitefield, and Finney would be the OGs of that really bold, confrontational hellfire preaching. There’s no doubt about that. And up to the point of fever pitch belligerence and indignation breaking out, I’d point at Billy Sunday, Leonard Ravenhill, and David Wilkerson–these last three especially. Them are some GANGSTER holiness preachers! They actually had to rub shoulders with real gang members at different stages of their lives. Some tough preachers!
