Preaching Sunday April 29, 2007. Pastor David Munoz
4 For if God spared not angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved to the trial
5 and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, bringing the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
6 and if convicted of destroying the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, making them an example to those who live ungodly,
7 and delivered righteous Lot, oppressed by the filthy conduct of the wicked
8 ( for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul day, seeing and hearing their lawless deeds), 9
know the Lord deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day trial;
10 and especially those who, according to the flesh, walking in the lust of uncleanness, and despise. Daring and stubborn
not afraid to speak evil of dignities,
11 while the angels who are greater in strength and power, not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
12 But these, speaking evil of things they do not understand, like unreasoning animals, born to be taken and destroyed, perish in their own destruction,
13 to receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they are pleasures delight to enjoy every day. These are spots and blemishes, who while they feast with you wallow in your mistakes.
14 Having eyes full of adultery can not cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having a heart trained in greed, and are accursed children. 15
have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam son of Beer, who loved the wages of unrighteousness,
16 and was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a voice man, restrained the madness of the prophet.
(2 Peter 2:4-15)
This passage teaches us that the wages of unrighteousness and the stubbornness of sin is death ...
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart,
and lean not on your own understanding.
(Proverbs 3:5)
WE ARE WISE IN OUR OWN OPINION ... TRUST IN GOD!. THE VISION OUR OPINION AND NOT WORTH ANYTHING AGAINST THE WILL OF GOD'S PERFECT AND WORLDVIEW.
The attitude of the servant of God in scripture is that of a wayward son who left his father makes as being perverse, because keeps you from doing what he knows not to do, why I had to see something he knew what was God's answer? ... as he looks from his own lust is good because they had gifts involved. He did not have to open the doors of his house from wicked people.
FRIENDSHIP WITH THE WORLD is enmity against God!
The servant of God is not known in advance radical and the will of God, this man had no convictions or his faith was so affirmed as believed, had lust in his heart, did not have to pay attention to the requests enemy, as the word of God says that death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
In the biblical passage the angel of the Lord is Christ, only that the Old Testament theophany not played well.
WHEN YOU THAN THE PERFECT WILL OF GOD .... God will intervene in your plans, rigged things so that no obstacles. The donkey had insight, sensitivity, humbled in the presence of God ... these characteristics are what must be a true servant of God!
then Balaam did what God commanded him to do:
Numbers 23:1-23
Balaam was the permissive will, but God allowed it to be, God knows the true intentions Balaam, they would not obey because their intentions were evil.
Balaam saw that he could not throw a curse against the people of God, Balak told I had to do to enter at enmity with God
Numbers 24:10-13, 25
1 And Israel abode in acacias, and people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab,
2 which invited people to the sacrifices of their gods and the people ate and bowed down to their gods. 3 So the people came to Baal-peor, and the Lord's anger burned against Israel.
(Numbers 25:1-3)
14 And Moses was wroth with the captains of the army, against the leaders and hundreds of thousands returning from the war,
15 and told Moses: "Why have you left alive to all women?
16 Behold, on the advice of Balaam these caused the children of Israel to trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of Jehovah.
(Numbers 31:14-16)
failed God? ... Do not minimize sin, because when you work with double moral sin against an infinite God holy!
