WORLD CULTURE HAS NOW SUNK TO GOD’S JUDGMENT LEVEL,

SO SHALL IT BE BEFORE THE SECOND ADVENT OF MESSIAH,
IS CERTAINLY NOW IN PLACE ON THE PLANET GOD MADE!

CULTURE AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH BEFORE THE FLOOD
Romans 1:22-32 – Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, [23] And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. [24] Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: [25] Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.
Amen. [26] For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: [27] And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
[28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; [29] Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, [30] Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, [31] Without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: [32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
GOD’S REACTION TO THE CULTURE OF NOAH’S DAY
Genesis 6:10-13 – And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
[11] The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. [12] And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. [13] And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
CULTURE AS IT WAS IN SODOM & GOMORRAH BEFORE DESTRUCTION
Genesis 19:4-11 – But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: [5] And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night
? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
[6] And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, [7] And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
[8] Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for there
fore came they under the shadow of my roof. [9] And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door. [10] But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door. [11] And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
GOD’S REACTION TO THE CULTURE OF SODOM & GOMORRAH
Genesis 19:23-28 – The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar. [24] Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven; [25] And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground. [26] But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
[27] And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord: [28] And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
CULTURE AS IT IS WORLDWIDE TODAY
II Timothy 3:1-7 – This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; [5] Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. [6] For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, [7] Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
GOD’S PREDICTED REACTION TO CURRENT WORLDWIDE CULTURE
Luke 17:26-30 – And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. [27] They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
[28] Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; [29] But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. [30] Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
Luke 21:25-28 – And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28] And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Malachi 4:1-3 – For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it
shall leave them neither root nor branch. [2] But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
[3] And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.

Gov’t to help fund Tel Aviv Pride Week
Culture Ministry donates to week-long celebration honoring victims of gay youth center attack

For the first time since the Tel Aviv Pride Parade made its debut in 1998, the government will participate in its funding, Ynet has learned. The Science, Culture, and Sport Ministry will also fund a new ‘Pride Village’ located in the city center.
This year, thanks to the funding, the Pride Parade will be merely a part of a week-long series of events, most of which will take place in the new village located at the gay center in Meir Park. Organizers are set to release the details in two weeks.
Also this year, events will take place under the title of ‘Love thy neighbor,’ in commemoration of Liz Trubeshi and Nir Katz, two young adults who were murdered at a gay community center a year ago.
The budget for this year’s parade has been set at a $130,000 (most of it from sponsors), while the events to take place at the village are expected to cost around $26,000, half of which will be provided by the ministry.
Pride Week is scheduled to begin on Friday, June 4, with a drag-cabaret act entitled ‘Holy Wigs.’ On Saturday the gay center will host an exhibit entitled ‘The Proud Gallery,’ a retrospective on artist Ziv Tidhar and his pieces.
Also in the works are a number of screenings of gay religious films, puppet shows, drag performances, and street theater, as well as artist workshops in which the audience will be encouraged to use graffiti to express themselves. The parade is scheduled to take place on the final Saturday, at 2 pm.
