Sermon
Ananias and Sapphira
Acts 5
1 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.
3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”
5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.
7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”
“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”
9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.
An Evil Heart
The Women pictured here is an evil heart. She wrote "The Women's Bible", which is anti-Christ. She and other;Feminists and Humanists, (witches) set out to rip apart the validity of the Bible, of the Divinely Inspired Scriptures and their truth- only the devil wants to do this, not fair minded individuals.
Gensis 9: 5-7 And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being.
6 “Whoever sheds human blood,
by humans shall their blood be shed;
for in the image of God
has God made mankind
7 As for you, be fruitful and increase in number; multiply on the earth and increase upon it.”
When someone plans to conspire against another person, they are not just doing this to a human being but to God. Speaking, gossiping, and planning behind someone's back, no matter how "good" your intentions, usually leads to very very bad things happening. It is a very very dangerous thing to do and you could lose your life; it will destroy the lives of others. Truthful, (before God), open honest relationships, with repentant hearts mend and heal..........
This is the Advocation of Violence against innocent, "good hearted", people made in the image of God!
All "rightful" legal authority comes from God to protect "good hearted" human beings. People with evil in their hearts lie and speak badly about others in secret, behind their backs to separate people who truly love and care for each other. (Friends, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, husband, wife, child, neighbors, etc.) They will smile at you, like they are innocent of harming you. It is a very satanic practice. The devil is in your heart or the person speaking to you. Rid yourself of people like that! People are innocent until proven guilty, under God. Everyone has a right to defend themselves under God according to his word, against these false accusations.
Commentary
by Kansas
You can see Satan's concept of rivalry all over our government today. It doesn't matter if it is local, state, or federal. The devil causes people to split off into little small groups so that they can start fighting with each other over issues. The devil tells each one a different lie, and the result is lawlessness. There is only one right way, and that is following God, the God of the bible. Many of these people will tell you that they are following God, but they aren't. God is eternal, unwavering, unchanging. He is exactly the same way now as he was in the beginning. If these politicians were truly following God then He would reveal to each one the exact same thing. We believe in not being unequally yoked. Jesus didn't come to party with sinners and tax collectors. He came and those chosen ones instantly, instantly repented from the lies that were put upon them by the world. They became free and separate of it. When you spend your days tied to someone of an evil heart, one who has rejected the gospel countless times you are going to get hurt. You can't completely follow God yourself, as they are going to do anything in their power to ruin your belief in God, and your peace or sound mind. When we get to the level the disciples were at if these people attempt to hurt us God will strike them down at our feet. Until that day however we must pickup our cross and walk, and let the dead bury the dead. We must have compassion on those who are abused and broken themselves, but God has set us free from those of truly evil hearts.

Matthew 12: 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. 34 You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. 35 A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. 36 But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. 37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”
The Father Revealed in the Son
Matthew 11:25-30
25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.
27 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 15:16-20
16 “Are you still so dull?” Jesus asked them. 17 “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18 But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them.19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. 20 These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
Acts 8:18 When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money 19 and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 Peter answered: “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money! 21 You have no part or share in this ministry, because your heart is not right before God. 22 Repent of this wickedness and pray to the Lord in the hope that he may forgive you for having such a thought in your heart. 23 For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin.”
24 Then Simon answered, “Pray to the Lord for me so that nothing you have said may happen to me.”
