The following story is fictional and
does not depict any actual person, entity or event; that is, except for
God......., and me........, and you. The names, may or may not be changed, to
protect the innocent, and or the sinner.
The statement above depicts the
convoluted way many people view God's Word and His relationship with man. Of
course, there are also those who don't acknowledge the existence of God, or the
devil, or such a thing as sin. I have just one thing to say to those people: "good
luck ya'll". By the way, the guy standing behind you wants your stuff.
Because he doesn't believe in God, the devil and evil; he sees no reason he
shouldn't kill you, and your family, to get your stuff. Think about it!!!!!
There are those who say that God
doesn't exist, that the devil doesn't exist, that the devil exists but God
doesn't and various other combinations that ignore the Bible in setting up a
person's thought petterns. Now we have to examine the derivation of your, and
my, educational experience. The world view you have is based on the whole of
your educational intake through life experiences and formal training.
Jesus came to pay the price, that was
due, for all those who couldn't cover the cost for themselves. "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the
prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. I tell you the
truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least
stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is
accomplished."[1] "For
whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of
all."[2]
There was only one man who was sinless, and because He was sinless, He was able
to pay the price for our sin. There
are 1050 New Testament
Commands and 613 Old Testament Commands[3].
If you think you can, and are willing to try to work out your own salvation,
God will allow you to try. However,
If you should mess up and break one little commandment, you will have broken
the law, which is unforgivable; without the blood of Jesus. Wouldn't it be
better to receive Jesus, as your Lord and Savior, which would enable you to
avoid the judgment? “You also died to the law
through the body of Christ.... By dying to what once bound us, we have been
released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in
the old way of the written code”.[4]
WARNING, THIS IS
NOT PC -
"APA
(American Psychiatric Association) create and delete disorders from the list of mental illnesses by vote, not science."[6]
"In 1973, the weight of empirical data, coupled with changing social
norms and the development of a politically active gay community in the United States ,
led the Board of Directors of the American Psychiatric Association to remove homosexuality from
the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)."[7]
Even they will admit that they did it based on political pressure and not based
on any scientific or medical fact. The scientific and medical facts remain the
same today, as in past time when these disorders were classified as mental
disorders. Now, how crazy is that?
Today the same type of controversy is
brewing over the transgender issue. Recently, a very well respected
psychiatrist, at Johns Hopkins, declared that the belief that you are a sex
that you are not biologically, is a delusional mental disorder. Have no fear,
however, our PC government has decided that invading the privacy of our
citizens in the bathroom is more important, and less intrusive, than getting
proper treatment for this disorder. For the PC movement to prosper, all
deviancy must be deemed acceptable and normal. If even the smallest part is
deemed to be what it really is, it will bring down the whole house of cards. That
is why, in some areas of the country, it is against the law to give counseling
for people who wish to get out of the homosexual lifestyle. This is obviously a
mental illness; not an identity crisis. "Transgender is a less
clinical term, referring more to gender identity and gender expression than to
sexual orientation or physical sex characteristics. It is also a more general
and inclusive term: a transgender person may be gay, transsexual, transvestite,
or even genderqueer."[8]
THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF PEDIATRICIANS
Calls the
presidents transgender bathroom directive "child abuse".
They urge
"...educators and legislators to reject all policies that condition
children to accept as normal a life of chemical and surgical impersonation of
the opposite sex. Facts - not ideology - determine reality....No one is born
with a gender. Everyone is born with a biological sex. Gender (an awareness and
sense of oneself as male or female) is a sociological and psychological concept:
not an objective biological one....Puberty is not a disease and puberty blocking
hormones can be dangerous. As many as 98% of gender confused boys and 88% of
gender confused girls eventually accept their biological sex after naturally
passing through puberty....Rates of suicide are twenty times greater among
adults who use cross-sex hormones and undergo sex reassignment surgery, even in
Sweden which is among the most LGBQT-affirming countries." -American College of Pediatricians
Have you noticed that a population of
less that 2% (LGBT) of our national population is being shoved in our faces,
because of the PC agenda of the progressives? As bad as it is to have that 2%
shoved in our faces, keep in mind that
the transgender illness involves less than .03 percent of our country's
citizens. It is bad enough that the less than 2% is pushed by the media and
entertainment industry to the point that it looks like it is 30 to 40 percent
of the population. Even just watching an evening of TV would make you believe
that the sodomite community is everywhere. They are not everywhere, they just
want you to think so. These blatant sinners want us involved in their sin; so
we must be very leary of any of their activities. This is simply another of
Satan's progressive activities that attempts to lower moral standards, and
divide the country in yet another way.
It is part of the effort to destroy the family unit; the central fiber
of the unity of mankind.
You need to know that, despite what
you have been told, you are in grave danger. When Hitler killed the 6,000,000
Jews, he also was responsible for the deaths of 24,000,000 other people in
order to be able to kill the Jews. Today's Islamists want the Jews dead. In
order to kill the Jews, they will kill, Yazidi's, Christians (Which are also
Jews), borderline Moslems, Buddhists, Hindus and others, in order to get to the
Jews. For years, anti-Islam activists have warned leftists that they are
feeding a crocodile, hoping it will eat them last.
A racist, rich, white guy (Mohammed) invented
a religion to fulfill his lust for riches and territory. This was the initial
impetus for Islam. Islam is truly a religion of peace, but you have to know
their definition of peace. Peace to a Moslem, will be when the entire world is
under Islamic control. An Islamist can
not be forgiven of sin, because the entire religion is sin. The only way for an
Islamist to find salvation is to surrender to Jesus. Be very careful when
believing an Islamist about their conversion to Christianity. In Islam, it is
fully permissible to lie, to "infidels", about accepting Jesus, if it
furthers the cause of Islam.
We are all troubled by
sin: doing what we shouldn't do, or being effected by it to the point we don't
do what we should. The apostle Paul said
he does what he should not, and doesn't do what he should. "For we know that
the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I
do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law
that it is good. Now then it is no
more I that do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no
good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is
good I find not. For the good that
I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it,
but sin that dwells in me."[9] Satan has infused
himself into the government of the United States to a level never
before seen in it's history. The progressives are the ones Satan has been using
to bring about the changes he wants. It
is a shame that, as I have said before: The fact that the average American can't
tell the difference between the will of Satan, and the will of God, is almost
unbelievable. Satan has used the progressives to fundamentally transform America .
They have fundamentally changed about half of our fellow Americans into lemmings;
sheep that will follow that familiar theme of "trust us, we will take care
of you, cradle to grave; you don't have to worry about anything".
What is the difference between a
pastor and a charlatan? A pastor is a highly motivated person, who decides to
dedicate themselves to the service of their fellow man via Christian work.
These people have the heart of a servant. They know that they may not get
wealthy, live in a multi million dollar home, have the best clothing - jewelry
- cars - boats - vacation homes and other amenities. A charlatan, on the other
hand, grasps at every chance they can to live the "good life".
Examples of these charlatan preachers are rampant. In their churches you will
hear the Bible wrongly divided, to tickle the ears of the congregation rather
that confronting the congregation with the truth of the Bible. This is known as
the apostate church. Jesus said these people would be better off being killed
than prospering by their evil ways[10].
In
the recent Republican primary runoffs, I saw several persons whom I would have
said were good solid Christian men. The problem I saw was that these good
Christian men seemed to
be overwhelmed by the "cares of this world". They started the race
talking and acting like good Christian witnesses, but things changed as the
competition got more intense, and the atmosphere of the race became more
worldly. Several of these Christian men started thinking more about the goal of
being elected, rather than serving the Lord. The result was that they were overwhelmed
by the leading candidate; perhaps as a signal that they needed to get on their
knees and ask for forgiveness. Their inner sinner, the "carnal man" was
allowed to surface, and it destroyed their chances. "Pride goes before destruction, and a
haughty spirit before a fall". I will never forget the advice my
grandfather gave to my uncle, when he was planning to run for the senator from the
state of Maryland .
He advised him not to, because it is impossible to remain honest when you are
in politics. My uncle did not run.
Thank you Mr. Soros.
How
many peoples inner sinner/carnal man is going to allow them to accept the mark
of the Beast? According to the Bible, it will be extremely difficult to
function without the mark, but keep in mind, it will block you from getting
into Heaven. Many people will accept the mark because they know God, better
than God knows Himself. "Surely, even though the Bible says it, a God of
love would never do that." Their main mistake is that, God is the God of
justice, as well as love. Please keep in mind that it is His love and His
justice, not your interpretation of them.
As
for me and my house, we are very grateful that we have been sanctified by His
Mercy and Grace, and our sins have been forgiven. I still have a problem, like
Paul did with my "inner sinner". I struggle against the old sin
nature, because trying to transform myself to be more like God wants me, is a
process that takes a lifetime. I like bacon and shell fish, I haven't taken any
adulterers, homosexuals or false prophets out beyond the city gates to stone
them to death, nor have I always turned the other cheek. The old Christian
saying applies: "I'm not perfect, just forgiven": meaning, I'm just a
sinner, saved by Grace. It is my hope that you also can make that claim.
