God

Eyes Wide Shut

Sorry to borrow this title, but it is fitting. This is about the lukewarm Christian (Rev. 3:14-22). These verses are a snapshot for the majority of those that call themselves Christian within the United States of America.
Jesus states that He will spew you from His mouth. There are those that believe that once you are saved you are always saved. This to me is one of two verses directly spoken by Christ that says otherwise.
The way people act through free-will is a direct bearing on where they stand with God. It is made clear in these verses that if you do not tend to your faith and believes that you can be cast out by God. He goes on to say that these people are rich monetarily, but spiritually they are poor. This again reflects those in the US when compared to the rest of the world.
But why are they poor in spirit? Because they are not being taught about God correctly if at all. People need to go to church. People need to read the Bible. People need to learn how to act their faith for most are hypocrites because of their behavior.
As an example, breaking the speed limit. I remember a car passing me going sixty in a forty-five only to see them turn into a church for services a few minutes later. Per Titus 3:1 , we are to obey the laws of the land and thus honor God.
People need to do as Jesus said in Revelation. Either to turn toward God and embrace that they are what they say “Christian.” Or turn from God and no longer call themselves Christian for in actuality they most likely are not and know that they will not be welcome in heaven, and then the eternal life that is beyond Christ’s return.

A Commandant broken

Those who know God understand that when certain ideas come to them it did not come from within them. They know it came from an external source, for God is His own being, the ultimate being.
God has the power to cross dimensions. For is heaven not another dimension? God created so many stars they cannot be counted and crosses an expanse so big it is immeasurable. This is something a mere human cannot do.
There are those that act as if they are god. These people are blinding themselves to the truth and disobeying God.
“You shall place no other gods before God,” says the first commandment. Saying you are god, you are placing yourself before the true God. This is an act of selfishness and as I have pointed out before, to me, selfishness is the ultimate sin; for from it all other sins germinate.
False gods are yourself, another person, money, your job, sporting events, etc. Giving something more time and recognition than God is breaking the commandment. We are told to do things in moderation. This mean in little segments of our time, but once it becomes the main thing in your life, it is idolatry. So people need to search their souls and decide where they stand with God.

Are you going to cause World War III?

Christian, General, government, Life, , , , , Leave a comment

I was just watching “Battleground” (1949). The first movie to be made about the Battle of the Bulge. In part of it they had pastor talking to the troops and he asked the question was it necessary for them to be there. He said that when ever someone with the believe of a super-race or a super-believe threaten the rest of society then yes it was necessary.
Now we have ISIS. Men who act exactly like the followers of Hitler if not worse. It is something that needs to be stopped before it causes 13 million to die horrible deaths in concentration camps in addition to 22 to 25 million military death. It is said that nearly 80 million dies in total in World War II.
In that time many saw how Germany changed, and they tried again and again to talk the Germans into not pursing what they ended up doing. Now we have an identical if not worse threat to the freedom of the world before us.
Today though we live in different world. A world that easier to travel within and also more dangerous. More dangerous due to weapons that can be made these days. Weapons we are allowing people to make that would willingly and gladly use upon us due to their super-believe that only they are the children of God when in reality their very actions and behavior say the opposite.
They are a threat to the world. They are a threat to all those that call themselves civilized. ISIS has made it clear that all that do not fanatically do as they do will be put to death. These men cannot be treated with. They will only answer to the same exact violence that they give out. They will grow like a cancer that can only be cut out of the human race so the human race can return to growing.
But it can only grow with God at the head. Part of the reason it has become so virulent is because people are turn away from God. People have forgotten or never really taught what it is to be Christian. That is the total opposite of how these men within ISIS are being taught. They are the true meaning of the word fanatic. While many if not most of those that call themselves Christian are the antithesis of these men. If people do not awake quickly than 80 million will be a drop in the hat compared to all those that will die in the war to come.
The lines are already being drawn. The radical countries are teaming up already while those are the other side are fragmenting. The fanatics smell weakness, and the weakest is the USA, due to poor leadership and lack of proper education. It is time to turn to God and realize that all human life is important and stop those that think they only they should exist.

Again, what is to follow may be shocking so take fair warning.
As we draw closer to the times predicted in Revelation things I once thought impossible become more and more possible. I often wondered why were those that served God and refused to take the mark upon themselves beheaded.

Revelation 20:4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Now it is a reality. Christian children and men have been beheaded. Their heads placed upon stakes in celebration and filmed for the entire world to see. It is something I thought beyond humanity. Something purged from us due to the Holocaust, but I have been proven wrong. I now understand that it is possible. Especially when you are in a society that does not worship God.
As God is removed from the people, they return to hedonism. They return to a time when those with the power and the money care only for themselves and not for and I quote the “hoi pilloi”
The hoi polloi are us, the common folk. Those that struggle with the everyday. Those that are not made wealthy off of the commoner, which the person that used this term is one of those.
But who said this? A republican? No. A billionaire? No. A democrat? Yes. A democrat that also is a racist? Why yes again.

The hard truth

Christian, Conservative, Conspiracy, General, government, Life, Thoughts, , , , , , , , Leave a comment

What I am going to now type is hard. Fair warning some statements may be truly shocking.

The world is now experiencing what the liberals, atheists and politically correct have created. A world that is selfish, self-serving, self-absorbed and as a result have no conscience. When a person has no conscience murder, theft, car wrecks and a numerous other bad things happen.

At one time the world had a conscience. That conscience had a name. It was called the United States of America. Now it has been removed as it has been removed from its citizens. They have removed God the author of this conscience.

In the Middle-East a terrorist group called ISIS is committing genocide and America ignores it. This militant group has released videos that at first reminded me of Germany during World War II, but they are worse. They film themselves shooting rows of men upon the ground in the head. They show one by one people being taken to the edge of a river. Then again shot in the head just before pushing them into the river leaving a pool of blood at the shooters feet. They are beheading, men and children then placing their heads upon spikes.

Yes, this is the actions of a terrorist, but who caused this to happen? The man in the White House when he pulled out our troops too soon from Iraq, but who put that man in office? Those in America that voted for him twice.

I have never voted for him because I knew he did not have the right knowledge or experience to lead this country. Nor do those that think this nation is not the conscience of the world will ever be truly prepared to lead this nation in any level of government. To wait for the word “genocide” to come to life as a wake-up call is the last thing that should have happened, but that is how it has come about.

That is why I feel I can say the conscience of the world no longer exist. Who is the core of the conscience? God!

Return to God America. Let those in power know that Christianity is still alive within the United States of America. Make yourself heard. Become active in the affairs of this nation as it was originally meant to be. I nation for the people, BUT BY THE PEOPLE. That statement means you have to speak out and make yourself heard. Not only by the vote, but by action.

A friend’s post

Today I read a friend’s post on Facebook. The more I thought on it the more it bothered me. In the first part of it he said “how does someone that calls themselves Christian act.” This is paraphrased by the way.
The word “act” which was not paraphrased bothered me.
Now I must say that he went on to state that the only way into to heaven is through Jesus and asking Jesus into your heart. This I fully agree with for those that have been exposed to Christian believes and teachings, but there are still those out there that have never heard of not only Jesus but also the Bible. For these people their actions will be how they are judged at the white throne judgment, but this is not how those that have heard of God, Jesus and the Bible will be judged at this time.

Those that have heard of the Trinity, God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Ghost. These people must answer if they have asked Jesus into the heart and souls. Those in the United Stated have heard of the Trinity. Many believe they are Christian. Many others have turned their back upon God and denied that God even exists. There are even those that call themselves Christian but in reality are not.

When someone accepts Jesus and you ask Him into your life a real change occurs within you. You begin to change. For some a change that completely created a new person immediately. For most, it is a gradual change that can take days, months or even years to fully see how you have become a new person.

If you truly stand before God, pleading for His Son to come into your life you will see and feel the difference. There will be no need, want or desire to “act.” For you will do it because you know it is the right way to behave and act. Sure, you will slip and fall time to time, but if your faith is real, you will pick yourself up and once again continue that journey that will in time lead you first to heaven and then finally passed the white throne to an eternal life in an eternal body.

Martyrdom looms before all that call themselves Christian.

I once wondered how the Bible could not mention by implication the USA. It mentions China, but not the US.
Those that do not believe in God would say it is because when the Bible was written the “New World” had not been fully discovered. As I see this nation falling apart about us I now start to understand that is not why.
This nation was founded upon the freedom to worship God. William Penn, a Quaker, created how this government could be setup. The principles of the separation of church and states was established to allow this freedom to worship or not too in your own way.
Now there are those that do not worship God perverting this principle to force God from the United States by using laws, which is the government. Simply they have reversed the principle upon itself. They are using it to cause the government to invade the worship of God, which is why people came here to escape from this very thing.
As I watch this nation collapse, I now understand why the United States of American will not be mentioned. It will be on the wrong side of God, which was not supposed to be.
Those that wish God to be removed are winning. I pity them. More and more I start to see that those that truly profess to be Christian will be first imprisoned, then eventually killed. I am slowly realizing that martyrdom may come to this nation.
It is happening now more than ever before in the Middle-East and this nation says little to nothing. This is wrong and needs to change before martyrdom is required here in the United States.

The road does not belong to just you (A reminder to follow the teaching of the Bible)

Christian, General, Life, Thoughts, , , , , , , , , , One comment

Daily, especially on the northeast coast many act as if the road they drive their car and motorcycle upon is their personal property. Yes, your vehicle is your property, but that is where it ends.
We live under laws and rules of the road that we must obey and follow. As Christians we are told to obey these laws and rules (Titus 3:1).
Just for a refresher course.
The double yellow lines mark different directions of traffic. You do not cross that line unless you are turning and then ONLY if no one in the opposing direction is heading toward you, even if the light has just changed.
The dashed white line is a dividing line for multiple lanes. Stay between them, unless you are switching lane, but make sure no one is in the lane you are going into; also just because there is enough room for your vehicle in an adjacent lane is not permission for you to go into it. It is there as a safety gap. Per the rules of the road for every 10 miles per hour you go you should allow 20 feet between you and the vehicle in front of you for braking purposes.
The “Yield” sign means to “yield RIGHT OF WAY” that means if someone is where you want to be you MUST allow them to go first. When a sign says for example “Right lane ends” that means those in the left lane has the right of way and you must yield this right of way to them. Once it is clear, you can then merge over to the left lane.
If you are in a forty-five mile per hour speed zone and it then reduces to thirty-five you slow down.

As Children of God, we are told in to Bible to honor these laws as referenced earlier. If you are not following them then not only are you disobeying these laws but God.

The Commitment

Christian, General, Life, Thoughts, , , , Leave a comment

It is in times like those we live in is when those that profess to be Christian need to stand their ground and allow themselves to be known and heard.
In Iraq, militants assaulted Christians. They were told they must convert to Islam or they must leave or die. Some could not. Those that could not showed that they in reality might not have been Christian because they chose to convert. This is not what should have happened. They should have chosen to let themselves be killed and become martyrs and yet they live.
I know this is something that is difficult to do. To be willing to say: “Go ahead kill me.” That is very hard to do, but I know I would do it. I would rather die for God and Christianity. It is not the first time this has happened and it has happened to all religions. It is sad that those that are religious do not learn to truly follow their faith.
Will my death cause the world to change? I seriously doubt it. Most likely no one will ever know it even happened. Most likely hidden by the corrupt news media, or not divulged by a government that only seeks to keep itself in power.

I just had to shake my head

Christian, Conservative, General, government, Life, Thoughts, , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

I was heading into work and I saw a pumper sticker that said: “I’m ready for Hilary.” I just had to shake my head.
Why?
Simple logic; the current president is religiously following the Democratic Party agenda. As a result, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. The United States has adopted the stereotype of the fat cop eating donuts while hundreds of thousands are murdered and says: “I’ll wait to hear about it on the news.”
As Israel is under attack from terrorist, while Russian soldiers pretend to be separatist and invaded a sovereign nation. The United States sits back as Islamic militants slaughter thousands and openly attack Christians.
All of this is what the Democratic Party wants and so you place a sticker on the pumper of a car implying Hilary Clinton (a Democrat) will be better. Did she switch parties and I wasn’t aware of it? Did she start a new party? The answer to both these questions is no. So as a result, you are ready for the exact same thing.
The changes promised to this nation of a better future by the Democratic Party has resulted in a war on the middle class and poor and all people can say is: “Oh it will get better it is Bush’s fault.”
HOW? The first year in a new president’s term is a result of the previous president. All other years are the result of the current president. You can only blame one person for the state of this nation; the man in the White House today.
This nation is falling apart.
As a result, the world is falling apart.
I still see in my mind a picture of the current person in the White House holding a book that was called “The Post-American World”
Well here we are in that world now all due to him.
Go ahead and vote for a Democrat and get what you deserve, but understand this. Every man, woman and child that has and will die due to this parties actions of pulling the conscious of the world away from doing what God has made it to do; will be placed upon every person’s soul that supports them.
When you stand before God and they read the book of your life and He says you allowed 10 million people to die and you say “How?” and He replies “By causing a few men to remove Me from doing what I made the United States of America to be. A place where I am worshiped. A place where My first children could count upon you to help them. A place that showed the rest of the world that I, God am real and something to be feared. It is due to this that you allowed these people to die.”
And all you will be able to do is cry, for a VERY long time.
