Watchman What Time of the Night?

In the Church today, many of us have lost the Spirit of Discernment. We can no longer discern the signs of the times, and instead of seeking that discernment, we shrug it off. Some say no one can know the mind of God and move on. While others don’t believe it’s up to them to witness, teach, or warn another soul, so it doesn’t matter anyway. But is this how the body of Christ is to think and behave? Are we called out of the world to just stay to ourselves, or is there more to the call of us Christians? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes in his heart-wrenching message, Watchman What Time of the Night?

Watchman, What Time of the Night?

Are Christians Watchmen?

Because we live under the New and Better Covenant filled with grace, many disregard the entire Old Testament. But the entire Old Testament isn’t the Law, and neither should we just disregard the Law completely. For the Law was a shadow of things to come. There is much to still learn from the Law. But with that said, take a look at what God warns Ezekiel.

17 Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. 18 If I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die for his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. 19 But if you warn the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness, or from his wicked way, he shall die for his iniquity, but you will have delivered your soul.

Ezekiel 3:17-19

Resettling the Settled

Over the years, our society has evolved culturally. Things that were once unheard of have become normalized today. Even the Law has evolved, if you will, into the New and better Covenant. So, does that leave wiggle room for all that our culture has embraced? Does the Bible and the things of God evolve with our culture? Or do some things just not change for us? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the Truth behind the argument to be seemingly destroying the Church today in his message, Resettling the Settled.

Sin in the Bible

Many people question what sin is in the Bible. They even ask if sin is actually a real thing in the Scripture or if it’s based on each person’s conscience. So, what is sin?

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Galatians 5:19-21

But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.

Revelation 21:8

Many believe that sin is simply strictly sexual immorality or murder or idolatry, but they overlook the fact that Jesus said that the cowardly (those who are fearful), as well as the faithless (those who do not believe), and the sorcerer (those who are into witchcraft) all have their portion in the Lake of Fire (Hell). So many times we get caught up resettling the settled, that we can’t move into the deeper things of Scripture.

Sin in The Law

Sin even goes as far as the time of Moses. From the act of abortion to adultery to the LGBT, there is a definite definition of sin in the Law.

20 And you shall not lie sexually with your neighbor’s wife and so make yourself unclean with her. 21 You shall not give any of your children to offer them to Molech, and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord. 22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. 23 And you shall not lie with any animal and so make yourself unclean with it, neither shall any woman give herself to an animal to lie with it: it is perversion. 24 Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, for by all these the nations I am driving out before you have become unclean, 25 and the land became unclean, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.

Leviticus 18:20-25

Deception Pt. 2: The Devil’s in the Details

Throughout history, the Devil has set the same trap for us over and over again, only changing his bait to fit the times, and we keep falling for it. He hides the evil in plain sight, knowing that we will overlook it if it is seemingly innocent enough, but Paul tells us that we are not unaware of the Devil’s schemes. He has made the Spirit of Discernment available to us; we need only ask. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he sets us on the path to discernment in his message, Deception Pt. 2: The Devil’s in the Details.

2 Corinthians 2:11
2 Timothy 3:4b
Revelation 21:8
Exodus 7:10–12
Luke 11:24–26

The Devil’s in the Details

Deception in the Bible

11 And He gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers,12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. 15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.

Ephesians 4:11-16

As a Christian, we aren’t meant to be deceived by the deceitful schemes of the Devil. This is why we are meant to build our faith so that we can see through the lies of the enemy and all of his deception.

Spirit of Discernment

For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

1 Corinthians 12:8-10

The Spirit of Discernment gives us the ability to see through the deceitful schemes of the devil and his followers. We can see through his bait and traps by the Holy Spirit. This helps us to distinguish between the spirits of good and evil.

Deception Pt. 1: Falling Asleep

Throughout the years, movies and tv shows have become darker and darker. Even more so in our children’s movies that are now filled with demons, incantations, conjurings, curses, spells, witchcraft, and more. Is this something that should alarm the Church, or is that just progress because this is the way the culture is going? Is freedom to take part in witchcraft and magic something the Church should back and/or support, or should we make a stand against these changes that causes us to fall spiritually asleep? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he sheds some light on this controversial subject in his message, Deception Pt. 1: Falling Asleep.

Falling Asleep Because of Deception

Warning Against Deception in the Bible

Falling spiritually asleep can be the cause of many Christians’ failure to finish the race set before them. They become lulled asleep by the deception of the World. They bought the lie that because people are trying to shift the culture a certain way for progress. But all of these sins have been outlined in the Bible.

16 Take care lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them; 17 then the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and he will shut up the heavens, so that there will be no rain, and the land will yield no fruit, and you will perish quickly off the good land that the Lord is giving you.

Deuteronomy 11:16-17

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on earth.

Revelation 18:24

Witchcraft in the Bible

16 And they abandoned all the commandments of the Lord their God, and made for themselves metal images of two calves; and they made an Asherah and worshiped all the host of heaven and served Baal. 17 And they burned their sons and their daughters as offerings and used divination and omens and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking him to anger. 18 Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel and removed them out of his sight. None was left but the tribe of Judah only.

2 Kings 17:16-18

19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Galatians 5:19-21

Necromancy in the Bible

Necromancy is talking or communicating with the dead.

If a person turns to mediums and necromancers, whoring after them, I will set my face against that person and will cut him off from among his people. Consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.

Leviticus 20:6-7

If a person turns to mediums and necromancers, whoring after them, I will set my face against that person and will cut him off from among his people. Consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.

Flattery, Lies, and Consequences Pt. 2: Pay Back Ain’t No Beach Trip

So many people love to have their ears tickled. They love to hear what they want to hear, over hearing the Truth. Because of this, they are so easily manipulated. But what about the flatterers?

Is Flattery a Sin?

The Beast shall overcome the world by flattery.

31 Forces from him shall appear and profane the temple and fortress, and shall take away the regular burnt offering. And they shall set up the abomination that makes desolate. 32 He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action. 33 And the wise among the people shall make many understand, though for some days they shall stumble by sword and flame, by captivity and plunder.

Daniel 11:31-33

Job made sure that he didn’t use flattery because he knew that flattery was a sin.

20 I must speak, that I may find relief; I must open my lips and answer. 21 I will not show partiality to any man or use flattery toward any person. 22 For I do not know how to flatter, else my Maker would soon take me away.

Job 32:20-22

Paul says that it is by flattery that the people are deceived into sin.

17 I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. 18 For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. 19 For your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil.

Romans 16:17-19

Consequences of Flattery

When King Darius realized that the men had used flattery to manipulate him, the very thing they intended to do to Daniel was done to them and their families.

24 And the king commanded, and those men who had maliciously accused Daniel were brought and cast into the den of lions—they, their children, and their wives. And before they reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and broke all their bones in pieces.

Daniel 6:24

Flattery is a form of manipulation, and God doesn’t take it lightly. Therefore, He promises that no person will get away with flattery or any other form of deceit.

Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.

Galatians 6:7

Flattery, Lies, and Consequences Pt. 1: Beware of Flattering Lips

Flattery has become almost synonymous with lies, which always seems to end with negative consequences. In today’s world, we often lean towards having our ears tickled by flattering tongues. The Truth has become rarer and rarer in these last couple of years. Feelings have become our main focus instead of facts. The world has tried to convince us that this is progress, but is it? Is having our egos stroked and flattery better than the Truth?

Beware of Flattering Lips

Flattery, Lies, and Consequences in the Bible

The Beast

31 Forces from him shall appear and profane the temple and fortress, and shall take away the regular burnt offering. And they shall set up the abomination that makes desolate. 32 He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action. 33 And the wise among the people shall make many understand, though for some days they shall stumble by sword and flame, by captivity and plunder.

Daniel 11:31-33

The Beast will deceive the entire world by flattery, and those lies will lead those who follow him into an eternal consequence because their ears were tickled and they believed feelings over facts.

Flattering Lips

For our appeal does not spring from error or impurity or any attempt to deceive, but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts. For we never came with words of flattery, as you know, nor with a pretext for greed—God is witness.

1 Thessalonians 2:3-5

Paul warned the people of Thessalonica that flattery is the same as lies because it is deceit and leads to negative consequences.

Heaven or Hell, Your Choice

There’s a common belief that is becoming more and more prevalent in the Church, and that’s that there is no Hell. That Hell is here on earth, but our Bibles tell us differently. Hell is a real place that many people will spend eternity, but you don’t have to. No one has to go to Hell. No one has to spend eternity in torment in hot burning flames that never ceases. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he shows us the path to eternal life and how to choose our own eternity in his message, Heaven or Hell, Your Choice.

Heaven or Hell

Eternity is Your Choice

Nobody can choose your own eternity for you. It’s up to you. You have to decide where you’re gonna spend your eternity. This was designed from the beginning.

9b The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Genesis 2:9b

19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live,

Deuteronomy 30:19

Nothing has changed. Life and death are still set before us today. The choice is ours.

20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.

Revelation 3:20

Choose Life

Jesus already did all the heavy lifting. He already paid our debt, overcame the world and sin. All we have to do now is accept His salvation.

But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.

Hijacking the Human Genome Pt. 2: The Future of Humanity

Time is no longer counting up. Time is now counting down. It’s counting down to the end of the world as we know it. It’s counting down to the coming of Christ. The early Church was in the last days, and we are now in the last minutes. We, Church, are running out of time. The enemy is setting the stage for a New World Order. A One World Government. This is no longer a farfetched or even an outrageous Sci-Fi idea. The threat of Tribulation is knocking right at our door. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he reveals some of the signs of these perilous times in his message, Hijacking the Human Genome Pt. 2: The Future of Humanity.

Revelation 13:16–18
Revelation 14:12-13

Daniel 7:21–22
1 Peter 3:14
Philippians 1:21
Numbers 14:18a
Revelation 12:12

Hijacking the Human Genome Pt. 2: The Future of Humanity

The Future of Humanity

1 And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit.He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft. Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth.

They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. They were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.

Revelation 9:1-6

How could people wish to die, but death never come? Is it possible that they are hijacking the human genome? Could genetically modified humans be our future?

New World Order Verses

And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months. It opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven. Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them. And authority was given it over every tribe and people and language and nation, and all who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain.

Revelation 13:5-8

15 And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 16 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, 17 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18 This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.

Revelation 13:15-18

These two verses point to a New World Order, a One World Government. Both of these verses claim that the New World Order, or One World Government will be let by a single leader, the Beast Out of the Sea.

Sign of Perilous Times

1 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. For among them are those who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions, always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.

Hijacking the Human Genome Pt. 1: Programming a New Humanity

Thousands of years ago, all the people of the earth came together to build a tower to reach into Heaven. They came so close that God came down and confused their languages. Before the tower, a single man was able to build an entire ark to Withstand the flood by himself. In the future, the Beast out of the Earth will be able to bring life to an image built by mankind. Technology is advancing rapidly in our society today. Could they be attempting to corrupt human DNA? It’s not impossible to believe that what was once thought of as science fiction is becoming reality in our world today, just as the Tower of Babel in the ancient world. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the science fiction that is becoming reality and how it relates to Scripture in his message Hijacking the Human Genome Pt. 1: Programming a New Humanity.

Hijacking the Human Genome Pt. 1: Promgramming a New Humanity

Humans Unable to Die

Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. They were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.

Revelation 9:3-6

Not once during the seven bowls of the Wrath of God did anyone die. How is this possible, unless they in some way corrupt human DNA? Could they be attempting to program a new humanity? A new form of technology?

17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, “It is done!” 18 And there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, and a great earthquake such as there had never been since man was on the earth, so great was that earthquake. 19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath. 20 And every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found. 21 And great hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, fell from heaven on people; and they cursed God for the plague of the hail, because the plague was so severe.

Revelation 16:17-21

Corrupting Human DNA

The only logical way that people would be unable to die, is if they were genetically modified in some way. It seems that they are hijacking the human genome, in other words, corrupting human DNA with a new form of technology.

Ode To Grandparents

It’s easy to think that as a grandparent, your job is now done. Your only job is to make sure your grandchildren are happy because they have parents of their own. But Grandparents still have a role to play in each of their grandchildren and great-grandchildren’s lives. There is great importance of grandparents in both their children and grandchildren’s lives. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he sheds some light on the importance and role of grandparents in his message, Ode To Grandparents.

2 Timothy 1:3–5
Philippians 1:21–26
Proverbs 13:22
Proverbs 22:6

Importance of Grandparents

We pay homage to our grandparents, especially today. It’s easy to overlook grandparents and the role they play in our lives. In, Ode To Grandparents, Reverend Kenny Yates explained that grandparents have great influence in their descendants’ lives. Look at how important grandparents/ancestors are in the Bible.

You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 10 but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

Deuteronomy 5:8-10

And He said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.

Exodus 3:6

Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend?

2 Chronicles 20:7

Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.

Proverbs 17:6

What we do today affects not only those around us now but those of our descendants in the future. If Abraham had never believed God or listened to Him, the Jews wouldn’t be chosen today. Never forget that your life is of great importance to more than just you, but to all who will come in contact with you.
