Is God Political?

Pastor Art returns from the USA to continue his political series and give a message on the gift of being able to choose our leaders.

Politicians now are doing everything in their ungodly power to impoverish people. And this is because the church refuses to stand up and engage. But God will use his people. Maybe as bait, but for a purpose, to finish His enemies and then bless His people.

We have been given the power to choose our leaders, yet less than half even vote. And when people tell saints not to get involved in politics, they’re in fact saying “let evil win”. But with enough people standing up in the streets, with a hunger for God, we can win.

Where is the church? We have been doing nothing for a long time. Western churches have received so much, and with it they have perverted the word of God. Therefore they have lost their authority. Sooner or later every man will be judged.

The books of Luke, John, 2 Peter, Psalms, Zechariah, and Isaiah are referenced.

After covering his time in Ontario, Pastor Art continues his political message series. Who has your allegiance? How many masters do you have? Jesus is not going to share a heart with the devil or demons. Cowards will always justify their unwillingness to preach the truth, and they willfully preach a watered down message to fatten their wallets. The hearts of westerners are given to Mammon, voting for whoever would promise them more. Choosing your King will cost you everything. And where would be the God pleasing faith if He immediately gave us everything? Truth divides from those who want to remain in the dark. You will have to cast your vote, God or the devil. Either you will be set free or you will be enslaved. This election has been on since man was given free will.

Reference is made to the books of Matthew, James, Luke, Ecclesiastes, 2 Timothy, Proverbs, Joshua, Psalms, 1 Chronicles, and 1 Samuel.

Pastor Art gets into who God chooses to deliver his people. Everyone wants to be the hero, but God makes heroes out of ordinary people who would stand up when no one else will. And when there is no man who stands up, then God raises up a woman.

Now is the time for the church to go after the villains, and cursed are the people who do not help the Lord against the wicked. There will not be peace in the land until people obey God’s commands.

The books of 1 Samuel, Exodus, Isaiah, Psalms, Judges, and Daniel are referenced.

Pastor Art details the consequences of choosing evil leaders who promise you whatever you want, and how you’re just a dollar sign to them. Going into how western civilization has basically fallen, he reminds us that only God can truly pull us out of this mess. Not getting into bed with idolaters and making deals with evil people, is what God asks for. When people are lacking Godly leadership, they are given over to raiders and lose the blessings from God. But God raises deliverers when the people humble themselves and pray to God.

Verses from the books of Galatians, Proverbs, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Judges, Matthew, Revelation, Psalms, 1 & 2 Chronicles, James, and 2 Peter are used.

After briefly recounting his time in Washington DC. Pastor Art continues his teaching on whether or not God wants the church in the political realm. In this part, he expounds on the type of people and institutions who would not like to see the church in politics. Religious people, corrupted people, state propaganda machinery (fake news), educational system, corrupted Justice system, law enforcement agencies, healthcare system, entertainment, and finances are all politically controlled.

The books of Ephesians, Matthew, Genesis, Isaiah, Romans, 1 Peter, and James are touched upon.

Pastor Art tears into the compromising church and reminds us that God has the final say, and not Satan. He admonishes us to not look at appearances, and instead discern through the written word, so we’re not caught off guard by the enemy nor miss the next move of God. He reminds us not to be unequally yoked, especially in the political realm, as most churches are. And makes the connection between modern day elections and the Jews electing Barabbas over Jesus.

He touches upon the books of Proverbs, Jeremiah, 1 Samuel, 2 Corinthians, Psalms, James, John, Deuteronomy, and Matthew.

Pastor Art continues his teaching on God being political. He makes the point that electing people who are anointed by God is the key to change. And that it was God who invented politics and law and order, appointing and electing judges as He sovereignly chooses, because He is a politician. If the church had chosen the things of God, then there would be righteousness in the land. If the Christians refuse to run, then with who are we going to replace the ungodly ones in power with? We are to assume the role of representative for his kingdom.

Pr. Art touches upon the books of James, Exodus, Revelation, Isaiah, Psalms, Proverbs, Micah, Malachi.

In Pastor Art’s first sermon of the new year he poses the question, “Who do you want to forward ideas? The church, or the devil?” And makes the case that if the church does not want to understand the importance of being politically involved, then we will be destroyed. He touches upon the books of Isaiah, Daniel, Deuteronomy, Proverbs, and 1 Chronicles.
