Why Things Are The Way They Are

Have you ever wondered?

America? The Country founded on the Gospel of Jesus Christ? The Ten Commandments hanging in our Courtrooms? God being removed from Public. Religious Freedoms being stripped away. Some of our Churches have become corrupt, calling Sin Good and Good Sin. Freedom in general being taken away..

The Murder of the most innocent of all life, is called a "Right."
Homosexuality is called a Protected Class.
Gays now have a "Right to Marry."
Christianity is being attacked at every side.
Children of God are being slaughter all around the World.

The sad truth? Some very good people {In a world sense}are standing and applauding all these things. Well, maybe not the Child of God being Slaughtered. That they just ignore. Why? Why are things the way they are? Is there something we, as Children of God be doing in this Dark Time?

{2 Timothy 4:3-4}

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."

We are in this time..Paul warned us of this time as well..

{Romans 1:20-25}

"For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen."

You see, when you remove God, something else always takes His place. When you remove Morals, and create an anything goes society, the reality is, well, anything goes. Remove God from Public Schools? Look at their state now. Remove God from Family? Look at it now. Remove God from Society, look at it now.

It is going to get worse folks. Jesus told us this...

{Luke 12:51-53}

"Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law."

He also told us this...

{Mark 13:12-13}

"Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.."

How can this be? Jesus, came to earth, for the sole purpose of dying for all. He came to earth knowing that we would beat, torture, and kill him, did so anyway. He came so ALL could find Salvation and escape Hell. How is it, that people can hate Him? Why do they hate those that follow such a man?

If you accept a Heaven, then you must accept there is a Hell. If God? Then the devil. If good, then Sin. If Hell, Sin, Good and Evil, exist, then there is accountability for actions. Then you have the fact that many saw the first Religions as a good way to control people. They turned Religion into a tool for control and yes, even profit. Jesus does not require following rules and regulations. He does not require you blindly follow some man.

Then another major reason is this. They do not want to think about Jesus being the only way because to do so they have to accept that those they love who chose not to follow The Christ, are lost. They remember past Loved ones and think that they must be in Heaven, regardless of whatever they believed or did, while they were alive. So here comes you, telling them, there is no other way. That the Way, Truth, and Life, is Jesus. That all they have to do is believe. They cannot comprehend the concept. So they attack.

Remember what Jesus told us, that a Servant is not greater than his Master, so since the World hated Him, they will hate us as well for His name sake. Be careful Child of God. Be careful you do not fall for the more successful tools of the devil. Organized Religion is a tool of the devil. Confusion and Chaos, are tools of the devil. If your local Church is Preaching anything other than the Gospel, there is no Salvation there. If they leave Jesus out, or include things that are clearly taught against in the Bible, they are a tool of the devil. Compassion and Inclusiveness, are tools of the devil. Be careful Child of God.

Live as you will, as long as you do not hurt anyone, well, mostly, is not Biblical. Now it even depends on who you are, or what you do, that decides if hurting someone is OK. Black person kills Black person, no one cares. Black person kills Whiter person. No one cares. White person kills Black person, National News. People come out to call for the Slaughter of the White person. Can you say divide and conquer?

This is also another reason so many Religions have come into being. Imagine if all Religions were one. If all people were united. NOTHING could possibly stand against us. Divide and conquer.

These dark times are not coming. They are here. We are living in them. So what is a Child of God to do in these times? Paul tells us in 2 Timothy 4

{2 Timothy 4:1-8}

"I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine."

Again, he is warning us that...

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry."

He tells us that WE, as Children of God, MUST remain Faithful to the one True God, and we MUST, be Sowers of the Seed. We MUST "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine." We might just be the last Hope that some of Mankind will ever have. A Light in the Darkness. A Beacon of Hope. If we do? We will share in the Glory..

"For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing."

WE are the Hope. We, the true Church, is what needs to be in the World but not of it. We, the Church, is all that still stands in the way of total destruction of all things. We the True Church, the Body of Christ. must not compromise. We must not "evolve." We must not fall into the traps. We must rely on God.

{Ephesians 3:20-21}

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen."

Do you know Jesus as your Savior? Have you been adopted into the Family of God? If not, say this Prayer. Right now. Wherever you may be. Say it in your own words, and do not doubt in your heart. God will hear you. He will send the Spirit of Life to you. Let us Pray..

"Oh heavenly Father, Lord God. I am a sinner. I know this. I know there is nothing I can do to change that. But I know you can. I accept Jesus's sacrifice for me. I repent my sins. Please send the Spirit of Adoption into my life. Help me to get to know the real you. Save me. Please. In the name of Jesus, Amen!"

That's it. It really is that simple. Now go tell someone what you have just done. "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." {Romans 10:9} You need to find a Church that God leads you to, and be Baptized the way Jesus said to be. You are now a Child of God. A new Creature. You "have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him." {Colossians 3:10}
