Inhumane Cruelty

by

The world is cruel and inhumane.  By the structures of its society it creates incredible need.  So it rakes in money for police, psychologists, psychiatrists, and all manner of medical profession.  It creates all kinds of instruments for dealing with food, clothing, and housing.  Still it makes no headway against the horror it creates.

Then it advertisements remedies for the trouble it causes, showing pictures of saddened and agonized faces.  It is as if they say, “You deserve to feel this way, and we can help you”.

All the while, they make rules and regulations that bar worship of the Lord Jesus Christ.  The Righteous and Holy Son of God stands ready and willing to repair all these insane troubles.  But the world would rather manipulate the broken hearted and elevate their own pride. 

Shame on you!

If a man is a friend of God in Christ Jesus, he will receive from the world the same things God receives.

Count the cost.

The Missing

I see,
In great clarity,
The missing of “The Mark”.

Exactly why,
I just can’t tell,
The “missing” is so stark.

Can others see?
Why hide from me?
Come greet me in the Dark.

Let’s get something straight.  (No pun intended)  “Gay” is not a noun, it’s an adjective.  To put it more simply, it’s not what people are, it’s what they do.

Exposed?

I wake this morning from a dream.  I dreamt that all my sins were exposed before all men.  There is no fear from the dream.  Expectation, yes.  Fear, no.  For even if all the world were informed about the things I have done, in their total, it would not change the message the Lord has given us all.

All this exposing would do is expose the wickedness of man to accuse.  There is one who bears that name eternally.  They would, then, be showing who their father is.

It is Christ who saves.  It is not the righteousness of any man that can save him.  Yet it is the humble confession before the Living God, regarding a man’s sins, that brings the Mercy of God to the rescue in Christ Jesus.

This message will not leave my lips because others proclaim what can be easily dredged up from the filth of my days.  I will give willing and continual glory to the One who has saved my soul.

Though they point to my sins, they cannot point to the beautiful hours the Lord has spent with me in prayer.  Though they can accuse, they cannot defend me.  It is Christ who defends me.  And the Holy One of God is beyond their reach to accuse.

It is in His Righteous blood that my soul finds joy.  Without question, their unholy accusations can only touch me.  Even so, no accusation from any man can touch my soul, which is cradled in the Living God’s Promise.

Let all who worship the Living God in Christ Jesus say the same.  Without this proclamation, there is no boldness.  And I refuse to cower because a few unholy servants of the Liar rise up and speak what can be easily be found.  There is sin in every Man, yet they will cast stones when the passion for self righteousness overcomes them.

Crucifixion

This was found in Wikipedia:

An essay written around 160 AD, attributed to Lucian, a mock legal prosecution called The Consonants at Law — Sigma v. Tau in the Court of Seven Vowels contains a reference to the cross attribution. Sigma petitions the court to sentence Tau to death by crucifixion, saying:
Men weep, and bewail their lot, and curse Cadmus with many curses for introducing Tau into the family of letters; they say it was his body that tyrants took for a model, his shape that they imitated, when they set up structures on which men are crucified. Stauros (cross) the vile engine is called, and it derives its vile name from him. Now, with all these crimes upon him, does he not deserve death, nay, many deaths? For my part I know none bad enough but that supplied by his own shape — that shape which he gave to the gibbet named stauros after him by men
