- 0:00Leviticus chapter 20. Let us pray our Father, who's in
- 0:05heaven. We thank you, Lord, for another
- 0:08day to come and to worship you in spirit and truth.
- 0:12We thank you, God, for your word that you have given us.
- 0:16We thank you for clean drinking water.
- 0:18Lord, we enter in your gates with praise and Thanksgiving,
- 0:23for this is the day that you've made.
- 0:25Father, we will rejoice. We will be glad in it.
- 0:30Father, help us. Help us to increase our faith,
- 0:34increase our love. Help us, Father, to love you
- 0:38with our whole heart. Help us to love our neighbors,
- 0:41God, as we love ourselves. Father, I pray that you'll
- 0:45continue to form a hedge of protection around this ministry,
- 0:49around our family, around our children's lives.
- 0:52God, I pray you'll break off the lies of the enemy.
- 0:56God silenced the accusations of the enemy.
- 1:00Father, I pray that you'll give us the ability to discern when
- 1:04it is that you're speaking and moving mightily in our midst.
- 1:09Thank you, God, for all the many times that you've showed up,
- 1:13Lord, and you've fought our battles for us.
- 1:16Lord, thank you for all the intercessory prayers, Father,
- 1:19that have been prayed over us. God, we intercede on those for
- 1:23those who are weak right now. God, we intercede and ask that
- 1:28you'll lift them up in this hour.
- 1:30God. Give them a sound mind in this
- 1:32hour. God.
- 1:33Give them vision, Father, so they will not perish.
- 1:37Lord, we know that you've set us free.
- 1:40So God, we walk in that liberty. We walk in that freedom.
- 1:44God, the sun has set us free. And so, God, we just say thank
- 1:48you. We say thank you for all of the
- 1:51blessings and all of the times, Lord, and for everything that
- 1:56you're going to do, Lord. So, Lord, I pray you'll be over
- 2:00this time that we are in right now.
- 2:04Teach us your ways. Teach us your paths.
- 2:06Teach us your precepts. God, help us not to worship you
- 2:10in any which way we like, Father, but help us to worship
- 2:13you in spirit and truth. And God, I just pray that you,
- 2:17Lord, will be honored with the reading and the teaching of your
- 2:20text. I decrease as the Holy Spirit
- 2:22increases. Give us discernment in this
- 2:25hour. Teach us your paths in Jesus
- 2:27name I pray, Amen. Well, let's start in verse one.
- 2:35And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying too again, you shall say
- 2:40to the children of Israel, whosoever he be of the children
- 2:44of Israel, or of the strangers that live in Israel, that gives
- 2:48any of his seed unto Molech, he shall surely be put to death.
- 2:54The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
- 2:58So here God is explicitly speaking out against child
- 3:04sacrifice and you need to understand that they would take
- 3:10their children the the land of Canaan and the land they were
- 3:15being LED into would take their children and sacrifice them to
- 3:19this false God. And you can see it in our day
- 3:22and our hour that people are choosing careers over premature
- 3:29births. And it is disgusting in the
- 3:32sight of a holy God. And yes, there is forgiveness
- 3:36when there is repentance, but by and large and in a whole,
- 3:40friends, you need to know that child sacrifice is despicable
- 3:47and disgraceful child sacrifice in the realm of trying to get
- 3:54your life on track. And it's too early to be a
- 3:57parent. When we decide that human life
- 4:02is not worth our time and energy, that we would rather be
- 4:06successful, then we are worshipping the God of Molech,
- 4:10the false God, friends, the God of Baal and Asher, of sex and
- 4:16prosperity and the needless killing of innocents.
- 4:22And that is what is referenced here.
- 4:24And God still feels the same way about it in our day, in our
- 4:28hour. Verse 3.
- 4:31And I will set my face against that man, and I will cut him off
- 4:34from among his people, because he has given of his seed unto
- 4:38Molech, to defile my sanctuary and to profane my holy name.
- 4:44So you need to know that there is grace and grace of bounds,
- 4:48and Jesus Christ paid the ultimate penalty.
- 4:51And we do not get to choose who gets to go to heaven.
- 4:57If there's breath in your lungs, it's not too late to confess and
- 5:02to repent and to return back to your first love.
- 5:05And love covers a multitude of sins and that is what you need
- 5:10to know. If you are still alive, there is
- 5:14hope for you. For.
- 5:17And if the people of the land do in any ways hide their eyes from
- 5:20the man, when he gives of his seed to Molech, I will kill him
- 5:25and kill him not 5. Then I will set my face against
- 5:29that man and against his family, and I will cut him off and all
- 5:33that go whoring after him to commit whoredom with Molech from
- 5:38among their people. So God here is not playing
- 5:42games. God is telling them outright how
- 5:45he feels about the needless killing of the innocents, and if
- 5:53they would not do anything about it, he would.
- 5:56But the people who choose to be complicit in regards to those
- 6:01who are offering up their innocence unto these false gods,
- 6:07God would deal with them. Six.
- 6:11And the soul that turns after such as have familiar spirits
- 6:16after Wizards go whoring after them.
- 6:19I will even set my face against that soul, and I will cut him
- 6:23off from among his people. So here he is warning them
- 6:26against consulting mediums. And it's no different in our day
- 6:30and our hour. We need to stay away from the
- 6:33tarot cards and the Ouija boards.
- 6:35We need to stay away from the occult and the Satanist
- 6:39movement. It is disgusting, it is
- 6:41deplorable. Friends and God will have no
- 6:44part in it and it still is applicable in our day and our
- 6:48hour. Stay away from the door of that
- 6:51place. Stay away from the people who
- 6:54are actively engaging within those occult practices.
- 6:58Warn a divisive person once and then warn them again, and after
- 7:03that have nothing to do with them.
- 7:05For you can be sure that they are warped and self condemned.
- 7:08And those who are hostile against a holy God and who want
- 7:13to go after these mediums, God will have to deal with them in
- 7:17due time. 7 Sanctify yourselves, therefore be holy, for I am the
- 7:23Lord your God. So he tells them here that they
- 7:26should be holy, because He is holy, and He is their God, and
- 7:29they are a peculiar people, that He got unto himself, and they
- 7:35are like a first born to him. He is married to them. 9 8 And
- 7:45you shall keep my statutes and do them.
- 7:47I am the Lord which sanctify you. 9 For everyone that curses
- 7:51his father or mother shall be surely put to death.
- 7:55He has cursed his father or mother, his blood shall be upon
- 7:58him. So this would be an adult who is
- 8:03willfully cursing their own biological parents and they are
- 8:11calling down curses like some kind of magic spell, some kind
- 8:15of put together cantation that would mirror the Pagan nations
- 8:26around them and how they would curse their parents.
- 8:29And God here is telling Moses to tell the nations that this is
- 8:34not acceptable in his sight. 10 The man that commits adultery
- 8:42with another man's wife, even he that commits adultery with the
- 8:46neighbor's wife, the adulterer. And the adulterer shall surely
- 8:49be put to death. So God has the sanctity of life
- 8:53and God has the sanctity of marriage.
- 8:55And we need to understand that God is the only one that can
- 8:59give life, and God is the only one that can marry.
- 9:02And you need to know that you should be ravished with the wife
- 9:05of your youth and not step out on them.
- 9:08There is no place for polygamy. There's no place for adulterism.
- 9:15Friends, you need to know that God desires for a husband and a
- 9:19wife to be together and to raise their children in a godly home.
- 9:28Loving the man that lies with his father's wife has uncovered
- 9:32his father's nakedness. Both of them shall surely be put
- 9:35to death. Their blood shall be upon them.
- 9:38So here he is giving them the outlines that not only do they
- 9:42not need to commit adultery with another man's wife, but they do
- 9:46not need to lie with their brother's wife or with their
- 9:52son's wife. He's going to go down a long
- 9:54list of the things that he finds to be disgusting. 12 And if a
- 10:03man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them
- 10:06shall surely be put to death. They have wrought confusion.
- 10:10Their blood shall be upon them. And that is what it is, Franz.
- 10:13It's pure confusion and chaos. It's disorder within the home.
- 10:18And your home should be a place of sanctuary and rest.
- 10:22Your home should be a place of peace.
- 10:25And he's saying that those that are actively doing these
- 10:28despicable things right under your nose are bringing in
- 10:32confusion to the house. 13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he
- 10:37lies with the woman, both of them have committed an
- 10:40abomination. They shall surely be put to
- 10:43death. Their blood shall be upon them.
- 10:45So here God speaks out against homosexuality, because in the
- 10:50end it is his plan for us to be fruitful and multiply and for us
- 10:56to populate the earth through one man and through one woman,
- 11:01married and together and in a monogamous relationship.
- 11:06This is not His plan for two men to lie together or for two women
- 11:12to lie together and do unnatural things. 14 And if a man take a
- 11:18wife and her mother, it is wickedness.
- 11:21They shall be burnt with fire, both he and they that were.
- 11:25That there be no wickedness among you.
- 11:27So God saying, nip it in the bud.
- 11:30It's not going to be any polygamy.
- 11:32There's no way for a man to marry the daughter and the
- 11:36mother at the same time. It is deplorable and disgusting.
- 11:4315 And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to
- 11:46death, and you shall slay the beast.
- 11:49So God has talked about this over and over and over.
- 11:52He's told them that they are not to do these things, and here in
- 11:56the realm of bestiality is worthy of the death penalty. 16
- 12:03And if a woman approached unto a beast, and lie down thereto, you
- 12:07shall kill the woman and the beast, and they shall surely be
- 12:10put to death. The blood shall be upon them.
- 12:13Again God revisits the same principle. 17 And if a man shall
- 12:19take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's
- 12:22daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness, it is
- 12:27a wicked thing that they shall be cut off in the sight of their
- 12:30people. He has uncovered his sister's
- 12:32nakedness, and he shall bear his iniquity.
- 12:35So God is speaking out against incest, and he knows how to keep
- 12:40the gene pool deep. 18 And if a man shall lie with a woman
- 12:45having her sickness, and shall uncover her neckedness, he has
- 12:49discovered her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of
- 12:53her blood. And both of them shall be cut
- 12:55off from among their people. So you can see here that this
- 12:59was a principle of how they became unclean. 19 And you shall
- 13:06not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, nor of
- 13:09your father's sister, for he hasn't covered his near kin.
- 13:12And they shall bear their iniquity.
- 13:14So there is no relations between children and their aunts, or
- 13:21children and their uncles. That is disgusting in God's
- 13:24sight. 20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he is
- 13:32uncovered his uncle's nakedness. They shall bear their sin, they
- 13:36shall die childless. So look at all these different
- 13:40things. Most of them are capital
- 13:42punishment. Some of them are being cut off
- 13:44from the community. This one is that they will die
- 13:46childless. 22 And you shall therefore keep all my statutes
- 13:51and all my judgments and do them, that the land where I
- 13:54bring you to dwell will not spew you out.
- 13:59So that's what's happening to the Canaanites as the Israelites
- 14:02are going in, The Canaanites are committing all of these things,
- 14:06and God is going to spew them out. 23 And you shall not walk
- 14:12in the manners of the nation which I cast out before you, for
- 14:16they commit all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
- 14:20That is what it is. It's support in God's sight, and
- 14:24He will not tolerate it forever. 24 But I have said to you, you
- 14:29shall inherit the land, and I will give it to you to possess
- 14:33it, A land that flows with milk and honey.
- 14:36I am the Lord your God, which I've separated you from other
- 14:40people. They are a peculiar nation unto
- 14:42himself. He birthed them, and now he is
- 14:46married to Israel. 2620 25 And you shall therefore, therefore
- 14:57put difference between clean beasts and unclean, between
- 15:01unclean birds and clean. You shall not make your souls
- 15:04abominable by beast or by foul, or by any manner of living thing
- 15:10that creeps on the ground which I've separated from you as
- 15:13unclean. This was a way for God to make
- 15:16sure that they made it there in the end, before all the sanitary
- 15:20practices and all of the science behind what makes us sick and
- 15:25keeps us sick. It would catch up to us, but God
- 15:28already knew about it all the way back here.
- 15:31And God deals with us in degrees, friends.
- 15:34He doesn't just reveal everything all at once, because
- 15:37our finite minds cannot contain that amount of information all
- 15:41at once. God knows how to systematically
- 15:44reveal things to you so that they will stick and that they
- 15:48will actually become the practices that you do each and
- 15:52every day, and they will become second nature.
- 15:55And when that happens, He will reveal more and more and more
- 15:58and more as time goes on. This process of sanctification
- 16:02is getting us ready for all of eternity. 26th And you shall be
- 16:13holy unto me, for I the Lord him holy, and have severed you from
- 16:17other people, that you should be mine.
- 16:20So there it is, friends. That's what God is after.
- 16:23God's after them to be separate, to be holy, to be his people
- 16:28that do not behave like the rest of the world.
- 16:31All around them will end on. 27 a man also a woman that has a
- 16:36familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, you shall surely be put
- 16:39to death. They shall stone them with
- 16:42stones and their blood shall be upon them.
- 16:45So God says, do not put up with those that are bringing about
- 16:49all of this witchcraft into the land.
- 16:52He will not tolerate it and He will deal with it in due time.
- 16:56Friends, I hope you've been blessed by this amazing chapter
- 16:59in God's Word. I know I sure have.
- 17:01I'm praying for every single one of you.
- 17:04I love you. We'll see you back here
- 17:06tomorrow. God bless you.
