Sound the Trumpet

 Act 20:26  Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all, 

Act 20:27  for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God. 


The wisdom and truth of God are given in the Bible. The Old Testament and the New Testament speak of the dealings of God with his people.  Man's wisdom cannot compare to the wisdom of God who created all things. In the Old Testament it speaks of a watchman.  If he sees the enemy coming he is to sound the trumpet. If he remains quiet, then the blood of those killed will be on his hands.


Eze 33:4  then if anyone who hears the sound of the trumpet does not take warning, and the sword comes and takes him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. 

Eze 33:5  He heard the sound of the trumpet and did not take warning; his blood shall be upon himself. But if he had taken warning, he would have saved his life. 

Eze 33:6  But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, so that the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any one of them, that person is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at the watchman's hand. 

Eze 33:7  “So you, son of man, I have made a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. 


It is the responsability of the church and the people of God to warn of these enemies.  Where are the enemies among us? Have they come through our open borders? Are they in government, and schools? The enemies of our souls are spiritual.God is a spirit and is greater than all. Come to God through Jesus, His son who has shed his innocent blood for our sin and shame. His blood has defeated our enemies.
