“WE CANNOT MIX THE SOFT, PLEASING DECEPTIONS OF SATAN WITH GOD”S MESSAGE”!!!
And Jehovah saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually….. And Jehovah said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the ground…. Gen. 6:5-7 (ASV)
“Noah did not mix THE SOFT, PLEASING DECEPTIONS OF SATAN WITH HIS MESSAGE. He did not utter the sentiment of many of his day who declared that God was too merciful to do such a terrible work. Many asserted that God would grant the wicked ANOTHER SEASON OF PROBATION; but Noah did not indulge them in the faintest hope that those who neglected the present opportunity, who rejected the present message, would be favored with another opportunity of salvation.” (E. G. White Sings of the Times April 18, 1895)
My friends in our 21 century high tech anything goes world we live in as a child of God like Noah we “CANNOT MIX THE SOFT, PLEASING DECEPTIONS OF SATAN WITH GOD’S MESSAGE.” I cannot try and make you feel good and tell you a lie that THINGS WILL GET BETTER in our sinful and decaying planet.
We are living at the end of God’s prophecy before His second coming and tomorrow will be worst then today.
Christ tells us Himself in Matt 24:4 (NKJV) “Take heed that no one deceives you.“ but, Behold, [He is] coming quickly, and [His] reward [will be] with Him, to render to every man [and woman]according to His [or her] works” Rev. 22:12-13 (NKJV))
In addition, I can’t stipulate the fact enough that our God has no desire that anyone is lost. Peter tells us in 1 Peter 3:9 (NKJV) not to “forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.”
For God “knows [our] hearts He knows [that neither of us] seldom measure up to what [we] long to be [or what His desire is for each of us but my friends His grace is sufficient and I know this because I am a living testimony] to how far His arms will reach to rescue [everyone who call upon His name] (For the Glory of Christ, Newsong)
For “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 (NIV) The message from Christ is a simple one but stern and to the point HE “DOES NOT MIX THE SOFT, PLEASING DECEPTIONS OF SATAN WITH HIS MESSAGE” when He tells us that “the wages of sin IS DEATH; but the gift of God is ETERNAL LIFE through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23 (KJV)
An example takes us to “Saint Louis in 1984, there an unemployed cleaning woman noticed a few bees buzzing around the attic of her home. Since there were only a few, she made no effort to deal with them. Over the summer the bees 
continued to fly in and out the attic vent while the woman remained unconcerned, unaware of the growing city of bees. The whole attic became a hive, and the ceiling of the second- floor bedroom finally caved in under the weight of hundreds of pounds of honey and thousands of angry bees.” (Robert T. Wenz.)
My friends our “Socially Acceptable Sins” seems insufficient, they are only a few we tell ourselves but if ignored and not brought under subjection to the transforming power of God’s Spirit in the end the weight of the smallest sin will lead us to Perdition. Prophecy is telling God’s Children today that we do not have ANOTHER SEASON OF PROBATION.
Consistent with this, we also “CANNOT MIX THE SOFT, PLEASING DECEPTIONS OF SATAN WITH HIS MESSAGE,” OF LOVE, MERCY and GRACE so today God is telling us before it is to late and our fate is sealed “lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares [you], and let [each of]us run with endurance the race that is set before us,” Heb. 12:1 (NKJV)
So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
