Title: God Has Not Changed—We Have
By James Langston | joybells49.blogspot.com

"For I am the Lord, I change not..." — Malachi 3:6
“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” — Hebrews 13:8

There’s a growing belief that God has changed—that He’s become more lenient, more tolerant, more... modern.

But that’s not truth. That’s deception.

The Lord is not a shifting shadow or a culture-chasing trend. He is holy, consistent, righteous, and eternal. It is we—society, culture, the modern church—who have changed. And not for the better.

We’ve blurred the line between holy and profane, between conviction and convenience.

Let’s look at the sobering difference between Then & Now—a comparison from 55 years ago to today:

Moral StandardTHEN (1970s)NOW (2020s)
SexSacred; reserved for marriageCasual; redefined and devalued
PornographyHidden; considered immoralMainstream; billion-dollar industry
SmokingDangerous and discouragedTrendy again via flavored vapes and online challenges
DrinkingCautioned and often avoidedCelebrated, glamorized, and normalized
DrugsStigmatized and illegalLegalized, commercialized, and glorified
Sexual OrientationViewed through a biblical lensViewed through personal preference and identity politics

We live in a world that no longer hides sin—it celebrates it.

We are witnessing what Genesis 6:5 described:

“…the thoughts of men’s hearts were only evil continually.”

This isn’t speculation. This is prophecy in motion.
We’re not just in a cultural decline—we are in a spiritual free fall.

But the good news?
God hasn't changed. And His arm is still stretched out—offering grace to the repentant, hope to the hopeless, and salvation to the seeking.

🛑 Don’t believe the lie that “things will just get better.”
📖 They’ll only get better when hearts return to God.
Now is the time to seek Him—while He may still be found.

  🕊️ Why Should You — or Shouldn’t You — Attend Church? I’ve spent most of my life surrounded by the rhythms of church life. From Sunday School and Vacation Bible School to revival meetings, baptisms, and Bible studies — I’ve seen the full spectrum of what it means to “go to church.” Church has been a regular part of my routine, my upbringing, and my community for as long as I can remember. But here’s the truth: It wasn’t until I surrendered my heart and life to Jesus Christ at the age of 14 that I truly understood the biblical reason for going to church. 🙋‍♂️ So Why Do We Go to Church? Some people go because they’re trying to check the box. Others go because they feel guilty if they don’t. Some just need a little spiritual boost to get through the week. But none of those are the right reasons. Yes, Hebrews 10:25 reminds us: “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the...

We Cannot Face Satan On Our Own Terms — Only Through the Cross As Believers, we must never make the mistake of thinking we can confront Satan in our own strength, even by imitating how Jesus faced him during His earthly ministry. Jesus met the enemy as the sinless Son of God—perfect in obedience, unmatched in holiness, and without the corruption of sin that taints our human nature. We are foolish to believe we can meet Satan on the same terms. We are not Christ—we are His followers. And our power does not come from ourselves, but from what He has already accomplished on our behalf. The only way of true escape from the enemy’s grip is not self-effort, religious works, or spiritual bravado. It is to look exclusively to the finished work of Jesus at the Cross —where the battle was decisively won, and where the enemy was eternally defeated. At the Cross, Christ became our Substitute . Through His perfect life and His willing, sacrificial death, He conquered the powers of darkness on all c...

  ✝️ Christianity: Not Just Something You Do—It’s Who You Are There’s a dangerous misconception floating around today—that Christianity is a part-time hobby, a weekend ritual, or a list of dos and don'ts. But let me tell you from experience: Christianity is not something you do. It’s who you are. Or more accurately, it’s who you’re supposed to be. This month marks 53 years since I gave my life to Christ . I wasn’t looking for Him, but He was looking for me. And He used the most powerful vessel He could find— a praying great-grandmother , 63 years my senior, who refused to let hell have me. I didn’t understand God. I had no clue about heaven, hell, or the weight of eternity. But she knew . She saw past what I was into and spoke into who I was called to be. I’ll never forget the day she cornered me and said, point blank: “Boy, you are not going to hell! You will preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ.” It wasn’t a suggestion. It was a prophetic declaration fueled by relentless ...
