Election Day 2024

Leave a comment

And when we are made privy to the outcome, then what? 

Christians, if we get what we say we want, what are we going to do? 

Are we going to breathe a sigh of relief and go back to our normal habits? Will we still pray as much? Will we proclaim the Gospel of JESUS The CHRIST? Were we proclaiming the Gospel these last four years or were we screaming about temporary discomforts and inconveniences?  Were we all bent out of shape for four years now over the mockery of truth and justice longstanding here? Did we submit ourselves to GOD for Him to shape us to Truth and Justice according to The Scriptures?

What will we do when this election day is over? 

What is GOD interested in with this election? The election outcome? 
He has already decided.
He knows. Who did He choose?
And why?
Did He hear the cry of the people for a king? He did when Israel demanded a king. He gave them what they demanded – Saul! It didn’t go well for them with Saul. 

What/who is America asking for?
HE heard us long before today. The decision was made all these years by what has been done in the every day lives of We The People. 

Again I ask, is America asking for Truth and Justice according to The Scriptures or is America demanding laws to kill their children with sexual perversion and mutilation outside the womb and abortion inside the womb? Is America screaming for relief from responsibilities and accountability for their personal decisions and actions? Is America warring for “freedom” to sin with no consequences?  

An awakening of one kind or the other is on the horizon. 

This I know. GOD is faithful and HE is worthy of our trust – HE is longsuffering and patient BUT there is an end to His longsuffering with the sins of We The People. 

The wait will soon be over — then what?

Win Some

What makes a teacher great?
Great question.  smile

Knowledge, of course, right?  A teacher must know whereof she/he speaks.  I mean, how can a teacher impart what she does not know. Correct? So what else do they need?  How about this?
A great teacher will invite us to learn, observe, and help us garner the information given.
I’d say what really makes teachers great is being a winsome soul with a well-trained mind.
Yes, winsome teachers, win some (or most) of their students to great learning.

Spot-less

Leave a comment

Romans+10-13+Whoever+Calls+On+The+Name+Of+The+Lord+Shall+Be+Saved+brown-2394072552As some of you know I am reading, slowly, through the Bible, not necessarily all in this one year of 2024, but reading through all the same. In my reading, I took note of sacrifices.
If you have read the early Books, you saw the innumerable lambs, goats, rams, doves, and pigeons sacrificed. Constant blood-shed. There was a reason for that. There is no remission of sin without the shedding of blood (Hebrews 9:22) and all this pointed to YESHUA who would come and His sinless Blood would be shed as The Sacrifice for sin. 

Today I read this again for the first time.
1 Peter 2:5.  5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

Many times I have been thankful that it is no longer necessary for animal sacrifices to be made; that we do not have to take an animal every time we sin, go before a priest, and sacrifice that spot-less animal in our place for the sin we committed.

However, 1 Peter 2:5 told me sacrifices are not over; spiritual sacrifices are required of us and I am thinking daily; perhaps multiple times daily.

Here’s my note to myself: Oh my! In the Old Testament, they were constantly offering up sacrifices, bloody sacrifices, but now JESUS is that Blood Sacrifice. And we are NOW to offer up spiritual sacrifices and they will be acceptable because of JESUS.
Spiritual Sacrifices.
Am I offering them? 
Am I daily coming to make sacrifices on the Spiritual Altar of my life? 

It’s a valid question, don’t you think?

Forty Years

1 Comment

I don’t think a majority of people (especially here in America) are afraid to do evil.
But we should be, don’t you think?
Don’t you think we should be afraid to sin against GOD?
Shouldn’t we fear the consequences of doing evil?

1 Again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD, so He delivered them into the hand of the Philistines for forty years.  source Judges 13

Forty years.
For forty years the Israelites were slaves to the Philistines. Why? Because they did evil in the sight of the LORD.

What is evil?
The simple answer — sin.

Romans 6:23“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”  (KJV)

James 4:4“Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.”   (KJV)

Adultery.  Just one of the evils men/women practice. Are they afraid?
They should be.
What else is evil?

Mark 7: 20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.  21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,  22 Thefts,  covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.  (KJV)

Are we getting the picture?
ALL sin is evil and we should be deathly afraid of committing evil against the LORD GOD.  And yet unregenerate men and women cannot help themselves – You see we are not sinners because we sin, we sin because we are sinners.

Have we listed all the evils mankind commits?
Not even close.

So now what?
Back to Romans 6:23“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”  (KJV)

It’s a fine place to start.

Isaiah 55:6 “Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:” (KJV)

Is HE near you?
Do you sense you need a Savior?
Then agree with Him and believe Him now, while you can.
