When the Vilest Men Are Exalted - Brother Ben Naim | Stedfast Baptist Church

How's that? All right. As I was saying before I was very rudely

interrupted, just kidding, Psalm 12 it says, the godly man sees it for the faithful fail

from among the children of men. We have here the Psalmist kind of lamenting the fact that

there aren't faithful men. He's not observing that. They fail from among the children of men. It's a

rarity to find someone who's faithful. Why? Because of societal decay. That's what we see here.

Societal decay. There is a problem with the morality of this culture that he's observing

here in Psalm chapter 12. There's vanity. There's pride. There's oppression. But then there's also

Psalms 12 · chapter mention

a promise of preservation. And I'll get into that in more detail. But we have a conclusion

at the end of the chapter that I want to highlight in verse 8. This is, I think, a warning.

This is something all of us should take very seriously. This is a great verse to memorize.

This is something to pay very, very close attention to and listen very carefully to

in verse number 8. It says, the wicked walk on every side when the vilest men are exalted.

And that's the title of my sermon. When the vilest men are exalted. When the vilest men are

exalted. The lowest of the low. The scum of the earth. When they're elevated in a culture.

You have certain consequences. There's a product that flows from that. There are

results. There's very rotten fruit that comes when the vilest men are exalted. And so I want to warn

you tonight about that. I want to warn you about the consequences. There are very real consequences

when a group of people decide to elevate the vilest of men. When a nation decides

to elevate and exalt the vilest of men, there are real consequences that all of us have to

deal with. People have evil role models today. They don't look up to righteous people.

They look up to the wicked. You have the masses exalting. Just the lowest of the low.

People with large followings online who are just total dirtbags that nobody should be following,

that nobody should be getting any kind of advice from. And yet they're the ones with the

largest viewer base and the largest number of subscribers and the biggest influence in our

world right now. And it's a problem. Let's look at Malachi 2. Malachi 2.

When the vilest men are exalted, there are real consequences for that. And you know what?

Somebody needs to speak up and say something and be honest about this issue or else the

world is just going to continue on its bobsled straight to hell. Somebody has to be honest about

what's going on. And you know what? Tonight you walked into a Bible-believing Baptist church

that gives you the truth unfiltered and that's what you're going to get tonight. You're going

to get the truth unfiltered. Welcome to the house of God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

The Bible says, He that saith unto the wicked, thou art righteous,

him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him. So according to the Word of God,

there's actually hatred reserved for those who call the wicked righteous, who would look at a person

who's obviously abhorrent and lift them up as a role model, somebody to follow, exalt them.

And we need to be putting people in their proper category.

The Bible says in Malachi 2, look at verse 17, Malachi 2 and verse 17,

ye have weary'd the Lord with your words, yet ye say, wherein have we weary'd him?

When ye say, everyone that doeth evil is good. Did you notice that?

Everyone that doeth evil is good in the sight of the Lord and he delighteth in them or

where is the God of judgment? So we have people here where they're just acting like God's not

going to do anything to them. And additionally they're saying that people who do evil are actually

good in the sight of the Lord. And man, if this isn't like seemingly the number one problem we

have in popular culture right now, people look at those who are clearly by every single metric

for somebody that has a brain in their head, anybody that has a brain in their head can

recognize that they're evil and then they say, oh, that person's good. Let's follow them.

And it weary's the Lord to say that those who are evil are good.

It reflects a backwards morality. And the Bible talks about how in Isaiah chapter 5

Isaiah 5 · chapter mention

there's a special judgment, woe unto those that call sweet bitter, bitter sweet.

The inversion of morality, it makes God very angry. It makes me angry.

Let's look at 1 Kings 12, 1 Kings 12.

Proverbs also tells us when the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the

wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. Hey, there's mourning when wicked people rule.

And that's why I think it's appropriate to mourn for America because the wicked rule

in this country. And what do we have coming from that? You have oppression, you have hard times,

you have evil. And here in 1 Kings 12, when Israel is split into two kingdoms,

Jeroboam establishes a counterfeit religion. And he's known as someone who, his rebellion

is infectious to the rest of the nation. He, in a sense, teaches Israel to commit the same

sins that he's doing and to go down the same path of false religion and rebellion against

God and to sin in the same way. And in 1 Kings 12, look at verse 28, where the Bible reads in

verse 28, whereupon the king took counsel and made two calves of gold and sent unto them,

it is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Behold, thy God's over Israel which brought

thee up out of the land of Egypt. So we have idolatry established in the northern kingdom

of Israel. And the reason why is because Jeroboam doesn't want to lose the influence of

the people. If they were to leave his territory and go down to serve God in Jerusalem in the

southern kingdom of Judah, then they would be far away from him. He would lose their influence.

He would lose authority and power. He doesn't want that. And so in verse 29, notice,

and he set one in Bethel, talking about an idol, which this is, of course, particularly insulting

because this, at one point, is where the presence of God dwelt in Bethel. And the other

put he in Dan. And this thing became a sin for the people went to worship before the one even

under Dan. So you have idols that are set up in Bethel. You have idols that are set up in Dan.

You have counterfeit religion. You have idolatry. Why? Again, Jeroboam doesn't want to lose the

influence of the people. And he didn't want them traveling down to Jerusalem to worship,

but rather staying right where they are. And so when corruption abounds, what comes with it

is false religion. When you have the vilest men exalted, you have false religion that comes

as a result. And in Israel at this time, they did exalt the vilest of men. And you had really

bad leadership and you had bad people running amok, doing whatever it is that their wicked

heart wants to their content. And you have false religion that comes as a result of that. You have

lies elevated as a result of that. If you want to elevate bad people, don't be surprised when

lies are elevated right along with them because bad people speak lies. And so what do we have? Well,

you know, when I read this passage, I think of a particular false religion that comes to mind

is called Catholicism. It's called Catholicism. And today we have Catholic influencers who are

elevated by the social media algorithms and all over the internet. And people look up to these guys.

You know, I'm talking about someone like Trent Horn, who has a large following, a Catholic

apologist who is just as much of an idolater as Jeroboam and the people here in First Kings

1 Kings 12 · chapter mention

chapter 12, considering the fact that Catholics literally set up statues and bowed down to them.

This is insulting to God. It's essentially spitting in his face with their counterfeit,

false Catholic religion. And yet there's millions of people today who are following

an apologist like Trent Horn all the way to hell. And this Catholic guy, he recently debated a

saved brother who has a YouTube channel. And in this debate, I'm not even going to tell you

specifically what he said, but the guy couldn't stop being like explicit and great detail on a

particular, you know, bedroom thing, a bedroom act. And the guy, that's like all he wanted to

talk about the whole debate. It's like, Oh, you believe in salvation by faith? What about

this gross sin? And he just keeps bringing it up in great detail. The guy just loves to bring

things up in the most graphic detail possible because it tells you how much of the filed mind

he has that he can't stop talking about that. It's weird. It's grotesque. No normal person

is going to go to the gutter and just want to obsess over the weirdest crap imaginable

when you're just talking about theology and trying to get them saved or

debate salvation, debate what the Bible says about these important issues. And yet,

Trent Horn, that's all he wanted to talk about the entire debate because he's defiled,

because he's a weirdo, because he's a freak. You know, you've got another guy father,

father is what they call himself, totally disregarding what Jesus said when he

literally told them not told everybody in the scripture not to take on the title of

father, call no man father upon the earth. And yet this guy calls himself a father,

Mike Schmitz or whatever. Again, he's got a good size following, preaches a bunch of lies.

Another one you may have heard of this individual, Nick Fuentes, a Catholic.

And here's the thing about this guy. It's not like he just has political opinions and

just sticks to politics. He has to infuse his show with a bunch of Catholicism. He wants

to turn America into a Catholic state. He totally pushes Catholicism. He's totally

just unsaved and going straight to hell when he dies. He's a heretic. But it's not just Catholicism.

We've exalted the vilest of men in America. And so we basically opened the door wide open

to every false religion imaginable. We're not just exalting Catholics. How about this?

3.6 million Hindus are in America today, up 55% from 2010. Hindus.

We have Muslims invading our country. You know, Islam is exalted by people,

especially the left, because the left hates God. So it's like anything that's anti-Christianity,

they're going to embrace, especially Islam. And amongst the Islamists, you have some really

vile, vile men. Now I'm not saying all, I get it. We knock on the doors of Muslims

from time to time. And they are friendly and hospitable and, you know, they're a lot more likely

to let you give them the gospel at least than a Jew. So there's that. I'll give them credit there.

But the reality is they're in a weird death cult started by a pedophile. And they're all bound

for hell unless they repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. But my point is this,

is that in our society, we've exalted every lie because we've exalted the vilest of men

and so that's why we have false religion abounding in this country. And that's why we have Muslims

invading, they're even in our government. I'll give you a short list here. How about Rashida Tlaib,

Ilan Omar, Andre Carson, Latifah, Simon, doesn't sound Muslim, but okay.

By the way, these are all Democrats, by the way. It's like why don't we take all these Democrats

and put them in Afghanistan and see how much they advocate for the faggots then?

Where they're throwing them off buildings, you know, in my neck of the woods.

We've got Aisha Wahab, a Democrat from California, Democrat Muslim. It's like,

man, it's like if Netflix were to create a movie or something, these would be the top stars right

here. Democrat Muslim women. It says Aisha Wahab, I have this right here, who won the election

to the House in a special congressional race. You know, I think that's kind of an interesting

name, Aisha. You know, that's the exact same name as the little girl that Muhammad married,

who was six because he's a pedophile. Muhammad was a pedophile. He's roasting in hell right now

in the deepest, darkest, hottest part of hell for being a filthy, pervert, pedophile freak.

Piss me upon him. You say I don't like that. Well, then you just don't like the Bible.

You just don't like truth. Oh, it was normal though. You don't understand. It was normal.

Get away from me if that's what you believe. That is super weird. It was not normal. It was never

normal, ever. Never, ever, ever was it normal. The New York City mayor is a Muslim. And look,

all these people, they'd love to turn our country into a hell hole and bring in hordes of

Islamists like what's happening in Europe right now where there's this epidemic of women

getting forced on the streets and all kinds of horrific violence taking place all over in Europe

and these countries where they're invading. And it's happening here. It's happening even in Texas.

I saw this, a new mosque and Islamic Academy project has been proposed on approximately

10 acres of land near FM 455 in Selena, Texas, sparking a mix of community discussion

and opposition among local residents. Oh, they're going to have an Islamic Academy.

How wonderful. They're going to teach them to blow themselves up or whatever they're going to

teach them to do in the Islamic Academy. Teach them about the Quran, which is a stupid book

that sounds retarded. Let's keep reading here. The project known as the Selena Masjid is initiated

by the Islamic Center of Prosper and Selena to serve the area's growing Muslim population.

There's more of them coming in. We've opened the door to every lie and every false religion

and every false God. And we've shut the door on Christianity. And that's what's happening

right now. Why? Because when the vilest men are exalted, you get Islam and you get every

other false religion as well. Let's go to first Kings 21. The Bible says elsewhere,

as you turn to first Kings 21 and on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came

to the King for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.

Absalom exalts himself. I would consider him to be a vile person. He steals the hearts of the men

of Israel and look, you know, I'm sorry to say, but our country, it doesn't want David. It wants

Absalom. And the hearts of our people also have been stolen by the Absaloms of our political

class. And the churches are just, they're not saying anything about it. But what happens

when the vilest men are exalted is that they steal the hearts of men and they follow them off a cliff.

And we see that here, first Kings 21, look at verse seven, first Kings 21 and verse seven,

and Jezebel his wife said unto him, Does thou now govern the kingdom of Israel?

Arise and eat bread and let thy heart be merry. I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the

Jezebelite. So we have here Jezebel, who by the way, she stirs up Ahab to do all kinds

of evil. And what happens here is that she tells him, look, you want Naboth's vineyard,

I can make sure you get it. And it's done unrighteously, stolen from Naboth, and they utilize

sons of Belial to do it. They utilize sons of Belial to falsely accuse Naboth. Let's skip down

to verse 13 and you'll see what I'm talking about. And there came in two men, children of

Belial and sat before him and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth

in the presence of the people saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him

forth out of the city and stoned him with stones that he died. So not only is Naboth slandered and

defamed by the sons of Belial, but you also have him getting stoned to death. They steal

his land. Now God does clout up and reign judgment on this situation here, but the

reality is Naboth is killed and it's the result of false witnesses, it's the result of

the sons of Belial. And it reminds me of the Lord Jesus Christ who also was falsely accused

by children of the devil and eventually he died on the cross as a result of that.

But we see a pattern in Scripture and in reality as well in the everyday world that we can observe

which is that the ruling class, they utilize the sons of Belial to do their dirty work.

Jezebel is no exception. Jezebel, the face of feminism and

you know, she gently led Ahab and you know stirred him up to do all kinds of evil,

all kinds of horrifying things to afflict the just, to afflict somebody like Naboth and steal

his vineyard. So what does this really tell us? It tells us that when you have a culture that

has exalted the vilest of men, you have innocent bloodshed. You have Jezebel in authority. So

what do you have? You have sons of Belial utilized to steal from an innocent man

his property, his vineyard. Look at 2 Chronicles 28, 2 Chronicles 28.

When the vilest of men are exalted you have innocent bloodshed in a nation. This is no

exception. We see that here where the sons of Belial falsely accused Naboth and what

happens in every society that goes down this road is the sons of Belial end up running up

and down the streets doing the bidding of the establishment and defiling people and taking

innocent lives and all kinds of things. The Bible says all they that hate me love death.

If that's the culture that a society then a nation embraces then don't be surprised if death

is what comes from it. 2 Chronicles 28 look at verse 3. This is also what happens when the vilest

men are exalted. Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hennom and burnt his

children in the fire after the abominations of the heathen whom the Lord had cast out

before the children of Israel. So this is talking about Ahaz. He practices false religion but

what else do we notice? He burned his children in the fire. This human child sacrifice that we see

here and the Bible tells us that this act was after the abominations of the heathen. You had

heathen nations that didn't worship God that wanted nothing to do with the God of the Bible

that believed in a false satanic religion and they're literally burning their children in the fire

to their false God and you have Ahaz doing the same thing in a nation that's supposed to be God's

people. That's what we have going on here. But here's the question. How does a country,

how does a nation get to this point? How does it get to the point where you have some woman

using children of the devil to falsely accuse and kill an innocent man to take his field? How

does a nation get to the point where you have somebody sacrificing their child in the fire

just like the heathen nations? How do the heathen nations get to that point when the vilest men

are exalted? That's what happens. Child sacrifice. And you know what? If our country

wants to keep exalting people like Margaret Sanger and building Planned Parenthood abortion

facilities across the country, then you know what? Hey, expect it to go down the same exact path

that Israel did, which is a path of destruction. We've got Planned Parenthood abortion factories

that are doing child sacrifice right now. It's happening right this second. As I'm talking,

there's some whore walking into one of these facilities to kill her unborn baby.

That's what's going on in our country today. That's what's happening in our society tonight.

You say, wow, this seems bad. How could they possibly sacrifice their own child? Well,

there are people that are sacrificing their children to the false god of Judaism and

to the false god of the Democratic Party right now. And it's happening in every single one

of these Planned Parenthood abortion facilities. And so this is a warning. This sermon is a

warning. You say, oh, you seem angry. Yeah, I am angry. A lot of this stuff should make

all of us angry because when the vilest men are exalted, you get hell on earth. So I want you to

take this sermon as a warning that there are consequences for this. And I want to go over a

few more here. I want to talk about some more consequences. And I want to talk about how

we should respond as Christians. So this isn't just doom and gloom. All right?

Even though that stupid parade put me in a bad mood before I even walked in here,

but the point is, you know, closing the streets, it's like, bro, I need to use that.

But anyway, let's go back to Psalm 12. I'm going to talk about how we should respond.

Here's my first point. When the vilest men are exalted, you get danger. You get danger.

And in Psalm 12, look at verse eight. We already read this. We'll read it again.

Psalm 12 and verse eight, the Bible says, the wicked walk on every side when the vilest men

are exalted. So when society elevates trash, what do you get? You get the wicked walking on every

side, meaning you're surrounded by wicked people everywhere you look. Every side is just wicked

people, bad people, murderers and thieves and derelicts and degenerates and deviants

everywhere. That's what happens. And, you know, if you have that, then, you know,

it doesn't seem to me like it's going to be a very safe society. It doesn't seem like you're

necessarily promoting safety if the wicked are walking on every side. And so that's why I would

say that, hey, when the vilest men are exalted and it leads to the wicked walking on every

side, what's the consequence? Danger. Here's something dangerous that occurred. Let's look

at Genesis 19, Genesis chapter 19. And so that's why we need churches to say something about this

Genesis 19 · chapter mention

because if not, then it's just going to get more and more dangerous out there.

There's drunk driving, there's theft, there's murder, all kinds of garbage going on in the

streets outside. And we need the churches to stand up and we need the churches to say

something. You know, the Bible says they that forsake the law, praise the wicked. So they exalt

the vilest of men, but such as keep the law, contend with them. You know, those who are

praising evil men, here's what they're basically telling you. They don't care about the law of

God. They've forsaken the word of God and the law of God when they praise wicked people.

Period. That's what the Bible says in Proverbs 28. And so we need to blow the alarm about

this. And yeah, it is true. The new IFB, it does a lot of contending against wicked people.

That's true. But what that tells me is that, hey, seems like a group of people who love God then.

Seems like a group of people who actually keep the law since the Bible literally says those

that keep the law contend with them. And we need to contend with the wicked today.

Or else we could end up like this. Genesis 19. Look at verse four. Genesis 19 and verse four.

But before they lay down the men of the city, even the men of Sodom,

can pass the house round both old and young. Wow, old and young. What does that tell you

about the moral depravity that we have in this passage right here?

Old and young. All the people from every quarter. And they called on the lot and sent

unto him, where are the men which came into thee this night? Bring them out unto us that we may

know them. So you have angels that come into Sodom and they sojourn with Lot. And then you have

these Sodomites who surround the house and they ask for these men, is what they call them,

angels is what they really are. But they say, bring these men out unto us

that we may know them. When they say that, they're not talking about having a discussion.

They're not trying to talk to them. It's something vile. And we notice both old and young

because these people, they corrupt the youth. They don't reproduce. They recruit,

which is why you have the young listed in Genesis 19. That's the only way that makes sense.

Why is this the case? How could this be possible when the vilest men are exalted?

And if we're just going to keep sleeping and doing nothing about it, and if all the men in

this country aren't going to care about the fags taking over and they're just going to play

their grand theft auto when it comes out and lock themselves in their bedroom for hours on end

and not give a rip about anything that's going on in this world right now, then don't be

surprised when it becomes literally Sodom and Gomorrah. We're practically there.

Old and young. Why? Because they are pedophiles. Every single faggot is a pedophile. Every single

homo is a pedophile. Every one of them. 100%. I don't know how much more clear you want me to

be. The Bible says in Romans one, they're filled with all unrighteousness and that they're worthy

of death. So there's your death penalty reiterated in the New Testament for those who keep wanting

to point out that Leviticus 20 is in the Old Testament. It's in the New Testament as well.

They're pedophiles. That's why they have their drag faggot events where they defile the eyes

of children in libraries. Think about it. You want to bring little Johnny. You want to

bring little Timmy to the library to hear somebody read him a book and that it's some faggot

freak. It's some disgusting, filthy pedophile. Some animal, some beast in a dress reading them

a book trying to defile their mind and violate them and molest their eyes. It's sick today what's

going on in our country right now. And it's happening all over America, including in Texas,

which I thought was a conservative state. We've got pride events targeted for kids.

Why do you think they target the kids? Because they're all pedophiles, folks.

That's why. And they're running up and down the streets today because the vilest men have been

exalted because our country exalts faggots. It's made it a heck of a lot more dangerous.

And they're saying it right now. Bring them out onto us that we may know them.

They want to hurt your kids. Don't be an idiot and ignore what I'm saying

and leave them within an inch or even 10 feet or 100 feet of some faggot.

Right. You protect your children. You keep them away from predators like that.

I mean, here in Sodom, they couldn't even have sojourners for a night without issues.

Think about that. Let me tell you what all these shootings have in common. I'm going to read you

a list here. 2018, Aberdeen, Maryland, four dead. 2022, Colorado Springs, Colorado,

five dead. 2023, Nashville, Tennessee. This one was a school, by the way,

for little children. Six dead. 2024, Perry, Iowa, one dead, five hurt. 2025, Minneapolis, Minnesota,

two dead, 29 hurt. 2026, Tumblr Ridge, British Columbia, eight dead, 25 hurt.

Oh, they're so loving. Let's invite him into the church. Oh, that faggot uncle.

It's no big deal. He comes over for dinner from time to time. We still hang out with him.

Are you crazy? Have you not seen this?

2026, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, three dead, three hurt. And these are just recent events.

You want to know what they have, what they all have in common? In every single instance,

the shooter was a faggot. Every single instance. You want to know why? Because they're predators.

You want to know why? Because they hate the innocent. You want to know why? Because

they're murderous. Because they're blood thirsty. And they want to kill children.

They want to kill innocent people, not just children, everybody. They're sick freaks.

Some of these incidents include a shooting at a high school hockey game.

Includes the killing of coworkers. It includes a fag killing kids at school. It includes

a faggot killing kids during a church service in Minnesota. How about the Charlie Kirk shooting?

Tyler Robinson, a faggot. Now, I understand that there's

different views on what happened, okay? I get it. And you could believe whatever your heart's desire on

that. But here's something that's just indisputable. The sodomites and the leftists believe Tyler

Robinson shot Charlie Kirk. Whatever you want to believe, that's fine. That's between you and

God, all right? You believe what you want. You believe what you want on that. But here's

the reality. He's executed in broad daylight. Whether you think it was Israel or whatever is

irrelevant to what I'm saying right now. And the leftists all think Tyler Robinson did it,

who is a fag, and they all celebrated. And the sodomites celebrated. They celebrated that

Charlie Kirk was executed publicly for the crime of being a moderate conservative.

They all publicly rejoiced because they take pleasure in unrighteousness

and they want to kill all Christians and they want to kill conservatives.

And so as America exalts the vilest of men, specifically faggots, you have these shootings,

you have these assassinations, you have these events that are occurring where you have innocent

bloodshed at the hand of people that the Bible put the death penalty on. The Bible says they

should be taken out. Every single one of these faggot killers should be taken out and put to

death by the government. That's what the Bible says tonight. And yet our society says the opposite.

Our country says the opposite. It exalts them. Heck, even the so-called houses of God

exalt these animals. And I'm not talking about some like

dyke Methodist church that's flying a fag flag. I'm talking about Baptist churches.

You know, I'm talking about independent Baptist churches. You want to know something? There's

independent fundamental Baptist churches where they will sooner allow a faggot to attend their

service than one of us. They are more likely, I mean think about what I'm saying here,

they're more likely to allow some filthy dog pedophile, reprobate, to sit in the pew

in their building and attend their service than a new IFB soul winner. I mean, I have seen story

after story of someone who believes like us getting kicked out of one of their churches.

And it makes me sick to my stomach. Like I literally want to vomit thinking about it.

You want to talk about exalting the vilest of men? Why in the world are there people

calling themselves Baptist and then they're kicking out soul winners but they're allowing

some filthy faggot to attend their service. Justifying the wicked, condemning the just.

Oh, but you don't understand, Ben, they won't let them be a member though. They get to have

their own faggot section but they don't get to be a member of the church. Oh, wow,

I'm so impressed by that. Let's kick out actual saved people and let's let faggot

sit in their own section. Yeah, that sounds great. No, it's garbage and it's wicked.

And you know what? Shame on them. Shame on them. Shame on any church that would excommunicate someone

for believing the Bible that would excommunicate somebody because of their view on Israel or

post-Rib, pre-Rat or whatever nonsense that they come up with and then roll out the

red carpet for Sonomites. Shame on those queerbait Baptists. Shame on them. They're

destroying America tonight. Every single one of these churches are helping to contribute to the

destruction of America. It's sick tonight. Oh, but then we have the Dutch documentary

guys come and film our church and they're all just like, oh, aren't you, don't you think you're

being mean? I mean, you said faggot, isn't that mean? It's like, no, are you a faggot?

Like, why do you care? I'm immediately suspicious of any guy who's like offended

by the word faggot. You either like the word or you're a faggot. I mean, come on.

And I'm being a little, I get it. Maybe there's somebody who isn't like that. But my point is,

it's like, bro, you know what I think is mean? I think it's mean when the fags molest children.

That's mean, actually. What's mean is predators running up and down the streets,

murdering innocent people and defiling innocent people and defiling children.

That's what I think is quote mean, hurting the innocent.

You know, we need more people to just make it clear where they stand on this. Say, hey, you know what?

I stand by the Bible. I stand with the word of God. You know, I actually love children,

I actually love the Lord, I actually love the innocent. I don't want innocent blood to

be shed on the streets of America today. I don't want the vilest men to be exalted.

And look, if you're soft on the fags, if you've heard hours and hours and hours of preaching

against faggots and you're still soft on them at this point, you're just screaming at me that

you're not on the Lord's side. What more do you need to see? They're killing people in broad

daylight. They're literally engaged in the most vile, filth imaginable in libraries across the

country and you're still soft on the faggots. What is wrong with you? Do you have a working

brain? All right, let's go to Psalm 12 again and we'll go to the next point. Psalm 12,

when the vilest men are exalted, you get vanity. You get vanity.

Now the reality is there are so many different harmful things that can come

from pedestalizing the worst of the worst and here's one of them. You get vanity. The

Bible says in Psalm 12 and verse two, they speak vanity every one with his neighbor.

They speak vanity every one with his neighbor. So the faithful fail from among the children of

man, the text is saying, and rather what you get instead is vanity spoken. What is vanity?

Is that which is meaningless? Vanity is that which is empty and vapid and meaningless. And of

course, if someone speaks vanity, that's a reflection of what's going on in their heart

because the Bible says that out of the abundance of the heart Jesus taught, the mouth speaketh.

And so when that is what is coming out of someone's mouth that tells you this is a vain

person. This is someone who is a very shallow person living kind of a meaningless life in a sense

because what is spoken is a reflection of the heart. Let's look at Proverbs 12, Proverbs 12.

Now the Bible says about ancient Israel, it says they rejected his statutes talking about

God and his covenant that he made with their fathers and his testimonies, which he testified

against them. And they followed vanity and became vain and went after the heathen that were round

about them. And of course, God told him not to do that. So Israel followed vanity and became

vain. It embraced that which is meaningless and imitated the heathen nations that God

told them to destroy because when the vilest men are exalted, you reap vanity.

That which is meaningless, something that has no intrinsic value at all.

And in Proverbs 12, notice what the Bible says in verse 11, Proverbs 12 and verse 11,

he that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread, but he that followeth vain persons is

void of understanding. You lack understanding if you're going to follow vain persons. Do not

elevate these people, especially when you have children who are following your lead

and you don't want to teach them that it's okay to follow vain people. Beware of individuals like

this. How about a guy like Andrew Tate? You want to talk about vain? First of all, he's a pervert

and he's an Islamist. But beyond that, if we're going to set that aside for a moment,

which is a pretty giant thing to set aside, the guy is as vain as you can get. He just brags

about being rich and he brags about his luxury living and it's gross. The Kardashians,

you want to talk about dumb whores? They're called the Kardashians, worship Satan.

Their whole life is just about shopping and designer merch and they're trying to teach

girls this so that they just live a meaningless life that's all about getting the next expensive

purse and high heels and doing their nails and everything like that.

You say, oh, you're saying it's a sin to do your nails? That's not what I said.

But you know, don't live for vanity. That's what I'm saying. Don't take me out of context.

Mr. Beast, this YouTuber, he always shows off how kind he is, giving money to the poor and

making sure to film it and put it on YouTube. It's meaningless slop, folks. Social media,

although we've used it for good and there's a good way to use it as a platform to

exposit truth and disseminate righteousness. You know what? It's also a den of meaningless

slop and today it's become AI slop. Who knows? Maybe the next big influencer won't

even be a real person that everybody is fawning over. TikTok, filled to the brim with vain

whore influencers. Girls that are putting inappropriate videos of themselves online that

will never, ever get deleted by the way. What's online stays online. To the day I die,

there'll always be some video of me on the internet ripping on fags and I say,

praise God to that. That's not embarrassing but you know there's embarrassing videos of girls

that are just acting like whores all over TikTok and things of that nature and they're

obsessed with materialism and they're teaching other girls to follow that horrible example

and we need to shield our children from this and we need to teach them, hey, don't follow this

dumb whore. Why don't you follow the man of God or why don't you find a righteous woman and

follow her example in church and things like that. You know there's many people that are

living vain lives and all they're looking forward to is the next iPhone. All they're

looking forward to is designer goods. All they're living for is money. All they're

living for is vanity. All they're living for is that which is going to one day corrupt

and no longer exist and then they're going to die and they're going to go to hell.

And it's sad. I don't take pleasure in saying that. It's sad that there's millions and millions

and millions of people who don't know the fulfillment that comes with living

for the Lord Jesus Christ and the Christian life because they've been indoctrinated and

they've been brainwashed into vanity because the vilest men have been exalted.

And so they live for alcohol and drunkenness and partying and fornication and that which is

destroying them. And so we need to warn the teenagers in the room, hey, don't go off with the world

and be like them. You're not going to get any satisfaction from fornication and drunkenness

and drugs and alcohol and all the things that this world obsesses over. That's not

going to give you satisfaction. What will give you satisfaction is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Get your butt in church. Get off, you know, these platforms or get off the channels on these

platforms that are teaching you to live a meaningless life. Let's go back to Psalm 12.

What else do you get when the vilest men are exalted? Well, in verse two, if you get back

to Psalm 12, I'll tell you in verse two, what else do you get? They speak vanity, everyone,

with his neighbor, with flattering lips. Psalm 12 in verse two, flattering lips.

What's flattery? It's called insincere compliment. Okay. And with a double heart do they speak?

Someone with a double heart, let me tell you something, they are two-faced. They tell you

to your face that they love you, but then behind your back, they are talking all kinds of smack

and doing evil to you. When the vilest men are exalted, you get flattery. Look at verse three.

The Lord shall cut off all the flattering lips and the tongue that speak at proud things

who have said with our tongue, will we prevail? Our lips are our own. Who is Lord over us?

Just a total lack of a fear of God, a lack of shame, but you have, I want to focus in on

flattery, the insincere compliment. God says he's going to cut that off, cut off the flattering

lips and the pride and the double heart. Let's look at Proverbs 28, Proverbs 28.

You see, I want you to remember this point right here, right now. The person who flatters you

hates you. Understand that. The person who gives you the insincere compliment hates you,

despises you, but rather it's the one who will offer you rebuke who loves you. Look at Proverbs 28

and verse 23. Verse 23. He that rebukeeth a man afterwards shall find more favor than he that

flattereth with the tongue. So we see that rebuke, it results in more favor than flattery. Rebuke

is what loving people do. Rebuke is what people do when they want to see you get better, when they

actually care about you, when they don't hate you. Now this seems paradoxical on the surface

for those who don't have a lot of discernment or maybe they're a babe in Christ. They think like,

well, this person is just complimenting the heck out of me. They must love me and it's insincere.

There's nothing wrong with compliments. I love compliments. It's great, compliment. But when it's

fake and it's insincere and it's disingenuous, that person does not love you. That person is

just waiting for the opportune moment to take a figurative dagger and stab you in the back.

And I've seen it happen too many times, the biggest flatterers turn out to be the fakes and

the frauds among us. Now I want to make a specific application here and I want to point out first

of all that I love African Americans. I love the African American community. I go out so many,

I get them saved. And everybody who knows me knows I do not have a racist bone in my body.

You want to accuse me of that? You are lying. I don't even believe in race. I don't believe in race.

No such thing. Not racist. But here's the thing. Because I love the African American

community, I struggle to find the right word but we'll go with community. Like it's like,

I don't know, black people. There. Because I love black people, I'm going to tell them the truth

tonight. Here's the truth. Stop exulting the vilest of men, please. And look, this isn't a color

thing. There's white people that do that. Every color has this problem. But I want to talk

specifically about what's been happening lately. Because I love black people. Carmelo Anthony,

a murderer. He stabbed a white kid in the chest. I don't care if he stabbed a purple kid. It's wrong.

Austin Metcalf in Frisco, he stabbed him in the chest. He killed him in cold blood.

And then you have people rallying around the guy because they have the same color.

What in the world? What if I'm just like, hey, this person with brown eyes

murdered somebody, but I'm going to stand with him because I have brown eyes too.

This is just low IQ. It's stupid. It lacks logic. It's dumb. And this individual is a murderer.

The Bible says, whoso shedeth man blood by man shall his blood be shed for the image of God made

he man. And so he deserves the death penalty. I would say, yeah, free Carmelo and then put

him to death for being a murderer. Here's another one. Sorry. One more thing here about this.

This individual apparently they raised $634,000, nearly $634,000 from supporters

for a crowdfunding campaign. There's a guy named Dominique Alexander. He said this about him.

This case is yet another example of what it means to be black in America.

Or even our self defense is questioned. What self defense, bro? There's no self defense.

He was in a tent with another kid and then he stabbed him. Self defense. Do you know what that means?

Apparently not. I just can't, I can't deal with this crap anymore. Supporter Lala Bryant

outside the courthouse said this, he had to do what he had to do. As a mother of a black

young man, I will defend him and I'm very proud of Carmelo. I must be proud of the guy

for murdering someone. Makes a lot of sense. Forget about being proud of somebody who's like

serving God, going to church, has a job, doing something constructive, contributing to society.

No, you're going to be proud about freaking Carmelo Anthony. That's who you're proud of.

They said, you have our back. Keep your head up, baby.

How about this guy? This is another great man that is being exalted right now

and has been for the last six years, George Floyd. Drug addicted derelict, once pulled a gun on a

pregnant woman. Here's what Kamala Harris had to say, the righteous lady. Change in the name of George

Floyd and change in the name of the countless other black Americans who've died at the hands

of hatred and racism. Another high quality individual commented on George Floyd. His name

is Al Sharpton. He said George Floyd, that was sarcasm, George Floyd's story has been the

story of black folks. We could never be who we wanted and dreamed to be if you kept your

knee on our neck. It's time for us to stand up in George's name and say, get your knee off our necks.

All right, Al. Here's the thing, Al. You're perpetuating a victimhood mentality

with this institutional racism stuff. And look what it's doing. Has it improved the

inner cities at all, teaching them that they're victims, that they're being held down?

No. And you know what, there's no excuse whatsoever for stabbing somebody in the chest

and killing them, unless it really is self-defense, okay? Whatever, if like your life's on the

line. But it wasn't in Carmelo's case. It was clearly cold blooded murder. And, you know,

you shouldn't kill people. I know that's controversial. Look, it is wrong to exalt

the vilest of men, murderous thugs, because you share the same color. What planet am I on,

where this is happening right now? Wake up. And you know, you're elevating the worst

role models, the absolute scum of the earth. And what is it doing? It's creating a culture of

degeneracy and drugs that is doing nothing for the inner city communities today. They're just

getting worse and worse and worse because of charlatans, these race hustlers like Al Sharpton.

And here's the point I'm trying to make, is that they create this victimhood mentality,

and then the Democrats exploit that by flattering them. And that's where the flattery comes into play.

The Democrats virtue signal the leftists of this world, they virtue signal and they flatter

black people. And you know what, they are laughing all the way to the bank. They're laughing

at you. I'm not saying every black person falls in this category where they're exalting

the vilest of men. There's righteous black people out there. I get that. But we have a large portion

of them who are out on the streets and they're supporting George Floyd and supporting Camilo

Anthony. And they've been socially engineered by the Jewish media and the Jewish rap music

and all of this propaganda to believe that they're being held down and to

embrace the victimhood mentality and what happens is that the left comes in, they exploit that,

they flatter them, they give them insincere compliments, they make them feel like they're

on their side when in reality they are destroying them. And that's why they're putting the

Planned Parenthood abortion facilities in every single one of these inner city

majority black communities. They're trying to exterminate you, they're trying to destroy

you. So instead of getting upset about whatever perceived microaggressions

and institutional racism, why don't you get upset about your babies getting slaughtered

in the womb by the millions? How about that? Why don't you get upset about the fact that

instead of giving you righteousness and the word of God and churches and great

influences and, you know, the truth, the left is giving you degeneracy,

phagotry and abortion. Get upset about that. Why don't you set your sights on the right

enemy? You ain't getting held down by the white man, you're getting held down by the Jews, buddy,

just like all of us are. Have the right enemy. You know, instead of giving you the word of God,

they're giving you the abortion, they're giving you the gangster rap, they're giving you

just the social engineering. The Democratic Party does not love you black people. The

Democratic Party hates you. They're using you. They're exploiting you. They are a

den of devil worship. They despise you. Don't fall for it. But yet, when the vilest men are

exalted, what happens? You get major flattery, major virtue signaling from the left, and I'm tired of it.

You know, how about you lift up somebody like a Kenton Knowles? How about somebody who's a

soul winner? How about somebody who's a missionary? How about somebody who is a righteous man,

who loves the Lord, who serves Jesus Christ with his life? How about that?

Let's go back to Psalm 12.

This is my last point. Now that everyone thinks I'm racist, Psalm chapter 12.

Psalms 12 · chapter mention

You know, I caveat it enough. If that wasn't enough for you, then that's your problem.

Psalm 12, here's my last point. When the vilest men are exalted, you get oppression.

You get oppression. And in verse five, it says,

for the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, say,

the Lord, I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. We have the poor oppressed

in this passage. There's an abuse of power against them. There's affliction against them.

And look, this is anti-Bible. The Bible tells us to do good to the poor. Leviticus 19

literally tells us to leave a portion of the field for the poor so that they can collect it,

do good to them. Now, we should consider the cause. Of course, I'm not talking about the

lazy bomb on the side of the road who's able-bodied, who could clearly go get a job

and provide for himself, but chooses not to out of crippling laziness.

I'm not talking about that, but there are poor people who we should be lending a hand to,

we should be doing good to, we should be trying to help. And the Bible talks about here in Psalm 12

that the oppression of the poor, hey, God is going to end up preserving them in spite of the fact

that the vilest men have been exalted, in spite of the fact that they are being afflicted.

And look, there's varying degrees of poverty. In the West, compared to some third-world countries,

you could argue that the vast majority or even everyone isn't really poor

when you compare them to some of the worst third-world countries and the economic

statuses that they're suffering through. But oppression does still occur in the West.

And I already brought it up, but we are all being oppressed in some way by the Jews today.

And I'm talking about usury. I'm talking about hyperinflation. I'm talking about the Jews who

are running the banks and have rigged the game against us. I'm talking about predatory lending

practices, which is another thing that our friends in the inner city should be upset about.

That's what I'm talking about. But see, here's the question.

Done a lot of negative preaching here. So what do we do about it? What should be our response?

Yes, there's oppression. There's danger. There's flattery. There's vanity.

All these things when the vilest men are exalted. We're seeing it play out now.

But here's the question. What do we do about it? Well, I'm going to

give you the answer to that here to close the sermon. Let's keep reading in Psalm 12. Look at

verse 6. Psalm 12 and verse 6. Here's the answer about what we should do to respond.

The Bible says, The words of the Lord are pure words as silver tried in a furnace of earth

purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O Lord. Thou shalt preserve them from this generation

forever. We have a promise here. Just as sure as God will preserve his words is just as sure as

he's going to preserve the oppressed poor in this chapter. I think these two concepts mirror each

other. And so even if we live in a world where the vilest men are exalted, there is a promise from

God for us. Yeah, it's getting dangerous out there. I get it. But there is a promise from God

that he's going to preserve. Not just the oppressed poor, but I think there's a way to

sort of provide a spiritual truth that we can derive from this chapter. Let's look at Matthew

6. That'll be the last place I have you turn. Matthew 6 and then I'll wrap it up.

The Bible says, Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. And this is a

very famous portion of the Beatitudes in which Jesus says, Blessed are the poor in spirit.

Why? Why would he say that? Well, think about it this way. Poor people out of the abundance of

necessity because they are in a position of being needy. They have a mentality that says

they're going to rely on somebody else to help them. They have an attitude of reliance,

an attitude of dependence. Blessed are the poor in spirit. Meaning what? Hey, if individuals

have that same attitude of dependence and reliance, you know what? Hey, that's going to lend

itself to salvation because what is salvation? It's believing on the Lord Jesus Christ,

relying, depending on him to get you to heaven. That's one way you could look at that Beatitude.

But we should also have, I think, that same attitude of dependence, reliance on God,

not just for salvation. I'm talking to a saved audience tonight. All right? You've done

God saved, D at the end. I get it. We're all saved. I understand that. So we need to take

that same attitude that we had about salvation, the gospel, believing on the Lord Jesus Christ,

and have that same attitude about every other aspect of our life, and have that same attitude

about our physical preservation as well. In spite of the fact that the vilest men are being exalted,

we need to make sure that we show and demonstrate faith in God, faith in His promises, that He

will physically preserve us, even if this world is on a bobsled to hell.

You know, the song of Moses says,

The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation. He is my God,

and I will prepare Him a habitation, my Father's God, and I will exalt Him. You say,

What do we do about the fact that the vilest men are being exalted today? We respond by exalting

Jesus Christ. We exalt the Lord Jesus Christ. We exalt the God of the Bible. We exalt the

Word of God in response. The Bible says, Thou art my God, and I will praise thee. Thou art my God,

I will exalt thee. Hey, the Bible talks about exalting the Lord Jesus Christ, exalting God,

glorifying Him. Respond to this message tonight by increasing your faith,

your reliance, your dependence on God, and showing that by exalting Him in every aspect

of your life. Because you know what? As this world exalts the vilest of men, we could be different.

We don't have to be like them. We could teach our children to be different. We could be different

in our own homes and in our own lives, and we can exalt men of God as they follow Jesus Christ.

We could exalt Christ Himself. We could look up to people who are actually wise,

who are actually righteous, who could actually teach us to serve Jesus Christ better.

That's what we could do. We could be the exception. And forget about the TikTok celebrities

and the George Floyd, and you know what? We need to tell some of these people that are out there

and shilling for murderers like George Floyd, and we need to get them saved. We need to stick

a King James Bible in their hand, and we need to drag them to church and teach them what it

really means to look up to someone who, you know, isn't just as wicked as hell.

And what it means to serve God? Look at Matthew 6, verse 31, Matthew 6, verse 31,

Matthew 6:31 Matthew 6:31

therefore take no thought, saying what shall we eat or what shall we drink or wherewithal

shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek, for your Heavenly Father

knoweth that you have need of all these things, but seek ye first, the King of God

and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. Hey, Jesus said,

don't worry about food, don't worry about clothing, your Father knows that you have these needs,

and even if this world is getting dangerous and the wicked are being exalted,

and it's probably going to continue to happen, why don't you seek first the Kingdom of God

anyway? Why don't you seek first the Lord Jesus Christ and his righteousness? And

there's a promise for you, all these things will be added unto you, the Bible says.

All these things, there's a promise of preservation in Psalm 12,

will be poor in spirit yourself, rely on God yourself and show that by seeking first the Kingdom

of God and his righteousness, all these things will be added unto you, the Bible says.

Even if the wicked are walking on every side, even if the vilest men

are exalted, God will preserve us if we seek him first. That's what the Scripture teaches.

Do you believe it or do you not believe it? That's the question I have.

So look, you could hear a sermon like this, you could think like, oh, he's being too negative.

Well, I was very negative, but there's a way out though. And you could respond by just running

and hiding. You could respond by getting blackpilled, which is kind of a modern,

I think it's like a Gen Z thing, but they're basically just saying where you're just

cripplingly pessimistic, where you're just, you just think life sucks, then you die. That's blackpilled.

You could get blackpilled, you could get pessimistic, you could run and hide,

you could do nothing, or you could have righteous role models, or you could

demonstrate your faith outwardly, or you could trust God to preserve and to provide for you.

You could seek first the Kingdom of God, or you could respond to this sermon tonight

by exalting Jesus in your life, better than you ever have.

Even if this world may exalt the vilest of men, I want you to have the attitude that says,

I'm different. My wife's different. My kids are different. We're not going along with the herd

mentality and following them off a cliff. We're different. As for me and my house,

we will serve the Lord. Have that kind of attitude. Respond in that way. Be the exception

and exalt those who are righteous in your life, and especially the Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of God.

That's by our heads for a word of prayer. Father in heaven, we thank you Lord for

the opportunity to be here tonight and to have the midweek service. I just pray, Lord, for

all those in Barbados that you would keep them safe as they go soul winning and participate in that

missions trip and that they would get many saved, turn many to righteousness, help them Lord, fill

them with your Holy Spirit, enable them to preach boldly. And Lord, I just pray that you

bring them back safe and just help us to continue to serve you, to exalt you in a world that

has done the complete opposite. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
