Now before I begin this. I must give a preface. I am no fan of Donald Trump the man. I do like many of his actions as a president of the US. I voted for him every time his name appeared upon the ballot. As a fellow human and a Christian. I can say I love him as I am instructed to do by the Word of God.

1 John 4:20-21 NKJV – If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

This being made clear we come to those that suffer what has been called TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome). The Word of God alone identifies those that behave and act in such a manner. They are liars. Honestly, if you look at how they behave beyond the TDS you will see that they are liars in other aspects of their lives as well. Many even spout out that they are “Christian.” Which as shown in the Bible verses given so far today that this is the furthest thing from the Truth. That said let us verify this even more.

Revelation 21:8 NKJV – But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

“And ALL liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

“All liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone.”

There is more to this behavior than just lying by the way. Let us look elsewhere in the Word of God. For when we have God’s love within us, we come to behave in a certain way:

Ephesians 4:11-16 NKJV  And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

In the middle of these verses, it shows the behavior of those that do not love their God or their fellow humans:

“that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.”

We see this behavior every day from those that do not have God within them. One day they have Ukrainian flags and support of the nation of Ukraine, then the next they have rainbow flags supporting the mutilation of children to be turned into the sex not given them by God. Then on to the latest fad of the moment. All that do this show they have no love of the Father within them no matter what they may profess or even which job they have like for example standing in front of a group of people in a building called a “church,” which as I have shown in recent posting that these buildings are nothing more than a den of thieves that deny God and worship Satan. Every single one of them for there isn’t one that I know of that teaches that we are to live off 10% of our earthly wealth and the 90% is to be kept for those in need. Not including the tithe that should go to someone that truly is a repetitive of God through Jesus Christ.

Now I wish to bring up another point that has to do with the first verses shown today. Therefore, I will present them once again:

1 John 4:20-21 NKJV – If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

I have encountered those that insist this only pertains to interaction only between those that profess to being “Christian.” Consequently, this implies that those that profess to being followers of Christ are not required to treat any others as our brothers and sisters.

This mentality places those that think this on the same level as those that follow the Muslim religion for example. A religion which states that if you are not Muslim then you … meaning all others are infidels and can be lied to, treated like garbage and slain.

All who are a child of Adam, meaning all of humanity ARE our brothers and sisters. We are told not to act superior. Those that act superior in reality hate their brothers and sisters and therefore have no love of God within them and therefore are liars per the main verses in today’s study. But lets go deeper on these lines:

 Romans 12:3 NKJV – For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

Romans 12:16 NKJV – Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

Philippians 2:3 NKJV – Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

Jeremiah 13:15 NKJV – Hear and give ear: Do not be proud, For the LORD has spoken.

Proverbs 16:18 NKJV – Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.

Proverbs 21:4 NKJV – A haughty look, a proud heart, And the plowing of the wicked are sin.

James 4:6 NKJV – But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “GOD RESISTS THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.”

Part of being humble is placing all others before ourselves. Be they Christian or not, for we know that the only way to eternity is through Jesus Christ. Since we are to be a reflection of Christ we are to be nice to all especially those that live in sin so that they will learn the Truth and repent.

How can they do this if you look down upon them with a haughty attitude and believe yourselves to be superior to them just as the Muslims see themselves as superior to all others. When you understand the teachings within the Quran. You know one thing for sure. Muslims in no way follow any teachings by Jesus Christ and seek to destroy all others. For in their eyes, they are superior and must dominate, control and destroy all who oppose them.

Therefore, any who says that all of humanity is not our equals, shows they are equal to those that are Muslim, which shows they do not have the love of God within them and are liars. And where again are ALL LIARS destined?

Revelation 21:8 NKJV – But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

Confessions of a screwed up middle aged man: What is righteous anger?

That is a question I am now contemplating. I just blew up. I reached my limit of hearing the word of God perverted beyond recognition.
What caused Christ’s righteous anger?
His Father’s temple had been turned into a den of thieves.
The temple was designed to worship God. It was made for prayer and study and meditation upon the Word of God. The Pharisees allowed money changers and merchants of sacrificial livestock into this holy place. Why? To steal from the pilgrims that traveled long distances to fulfill their obligation to God.
The thieves you see were the Pharisees themselves, for they took a large percentage of the profits as their “fees.” It was their hypocrisy, their false interpretation of the Bible that caused His righteous anger.
Hearing the polluted garbage of the false analysis of God’s Word I just couldn’t stand back and hear it anymore.
To have God and His Son so falsely represented. To hear the Jewish people and Christians alike be denigrated and defamed any further. I just couldn’t stand by and allow it in my presence any further.
Was I right to explode?
All I know is that to hear someone say they are “Christian” and live their live and say their insight into the Word of God was so completely and absolutely opposite even a poor interpretation of the Holy Bible. To have them say with absolute conviction and sincerity that their belief were the true translation of God’s Word; when even a seven year old would question what is read in the pages of the holy manuscript compared to the statements that left this person’s mouth.
I just don’t know for sure. The part of me that knows the Bible says no, yet at the exact same time it says.
All I hear in my head is:
Galatians 1:6 – I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ. You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News 7 but is not the Good News at all. You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth concerning Christ. 8 Let God’s curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you. 9 I say again what we have said before: If anyone preaches any other Good News than the one you welcomed, let that person be cursed.

The anger needs to STOP (if you support Trump your faith may be in question)

I understand the anger. I understand where it is coming from. I am angry myself, but when making important decisions you must get the anger out.
James 1:19-20 – Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires.
Right now people are voting their anger.
THIS MUST STOP!!
Right now, due to anger, people are supporting and voting for someone who is all show. He has no true values that are what can really be called “Christian” or for that matter “conservative” and has shown this with his lack of knowledge of the Bible when he said “Two Corinthians” not “2nd Corinthians.”
Now I just heard the other day an important fact from the exit polls of the South Carolina primary. Those that are true believers in God and follow the teachings of the Bible DID NOT vote for Trump. They voted for Cruz and Rubio. Why Rubio is something that I personally do not understand for I personally question his standing Biblically as well.
This is a wakeup call to those that call themselves “Christian” and voted for Trump. For the exit poll states that those that are NOT strong followers of the Bible DID vote for Trump. They by their own actions have declared they do not truly follow the Bible. Not only to the world, but to God.
Revelation 3:15-19 – “I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! You say, ‘I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a thing!’ And you don’t realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. Also buy white garments from me so you will not be shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see. I correct and discipline everyone I love. So be diligent and turn from your indifference.”
The Bible is against anger. The Bible supports a servant mentality. Now let me explain this. It doesn’t mean cower it means to think of others first.
Matthew 20:24-28 – When the ten other disciples heard what James and John had asked, they were indignant. But Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and officials flaunt their authority over those under them. But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Trump does not reflect the actions of a believer. In fact he encourages and truly promotes that which the Bible says we are not to do.
So those that are truly committed to God should not support this person.
If you do there is an issue with your beliefs that you must address and pray upon. For if you support someone that is opposite the Bible, well you’ll figure it out……….. I hope.

An awakening is called for.

The Bible says that God would use even the evil of man to accomplish his plan. This not only goes for the actions of those like Hitler which helped enable the re-establishment of Israel, but it goes to other things.
I mean look at the title of the new Star Wars movie: “The force awakens.” Yet even now more and more are awakening to the truth about the government of this nation. There are many though that are allowing anger to cloud their judgment. It is this same type of anger that allowed Hitler to commit the horrible acts that he and his followers did.
Yes awaken, but do not awaken to anger, turn to what is righteous and true. But what is righteous and true in the world we live within today? The answer is thousands of years old and has seen the rise and fall of many governments and countries. Always at its core is that which is true. To place all others before yourself, especially if you wish to lead them.
It is this which we must awaken to. It is the teaching of Jesus Christ and all that is found within the Bible. We must honor all life, but we must be willing to defend what is right and righteous. For too long those with the power have been breaking the First Amendment of the Constitution. The government cannot form a religion. Yet the government is shoving more and more Islamic teachings into our schools to the point of making our children copy Muslim text and play Muslim songs during the presentations designed to honor the birth of Christ. Now I have no problem with Muslim practicing their religion, for that is the next part of the first amendment, but on the same lines that the does allow the government to remove Christian or Jewish symbols yet allow Islamic symbols to stay.
It is this which many are awakening too, but they are over reacting as they do. We cannot over react or we will be going the way of 1930s Germany, but a line must be drawn that cannot falter or fail.
Now, to be honest with you. I do not see this going well for Christianity. ISIS is here to stay, it is too late to remove them and any that support them in the United Stated either with full knowledge or with a mistaken understanding of what they are truly doing will most likely be held responsible for their actions by God All Mighty Himself.
There are events that need to happen, per the Bible and the way things are looking we are heading down that road. Those with eyes will see and understand at least partly to what I am referring. Understand also that God still has a purpose for the United States, if this were not so what has happened in the last eight years would not have caused the awakening to begin. God punishes those He loves to force them to change their ways, for He truly loves the people of this nation. He that spares the rod hates the child, he that chastises the child loves the child and wishes the child to grow in glory and love.
The United States is being spanked and those that are natural citizens need to realize this and turn their face to God and hear what He is trying to tell them. Soon though things are going to get much worse if we do not fully and correctly awaken. The next election will be how we show where we stand with God.
If we elect another Democrat, those that deny there is a God, then we are lost.
If we vote out of anger and elect Trump again we are lost.
If we support and vote for someone that is a servant of God then we may have a chance to redeem ourselves. Could this be Dr. Carson? Could it be Senator Cruz? Could it be Senator Paul?
These are the only three that deserve our attention and of these I personally distrust Cruz the most. Dr. Carson as shown true Christian values. While Dr. Paul as shown real fiscal knowledge and understanding. Maybe a Paul/Carson ticket?
Whatever happens this next election is extremely important to those that profess to be Christian. It is time to stand and be counted. It is time to make sure that those that have been in office for more than twelve year to be removed from power no matter the party.
Pray to God and awaken. Pray to God and vote.
