Progress?

What is the pride of man?  In his darkened reasoning even he admits that he is once removed from animals.   Yet, because he has learned to chip stone to make tools, he says he is respectable and vitally important.

And if he is once removed from animals, which direction has he removed himself?  Even animals allow one another to thrive.  The spider does not covet all food.  The Lion does not lay claim to what it cannot gain.  Has man been boasting that he is less and worse than animals?  Where is the pride of man?

If man would cast out greed he might equal “animal”.  But to become what man thinks he is requires godly attributes.  But how will that ever happen?  Man’s pride denies his dependence on God.  Truly man without God is merely one step removed from dirt.

The Convient Conspiracy

“Let us conspire to conveniences.  Let us fabricate with the most expensive materials.  Let us melt down antiquity and build anew.  We have been caught in lies before.  And our desire to secure our own way has met resistance at every turn.  We need an entirely new approach.”

They looked about for materials and ideas.  They have settled on a rather convient approach.  Grace is a solid foundation as well as a sufficient covering.   Not to mention that it requires no effort at all to raise up and maintain.  But to call it by its proper name will not do.  For they have conspired to bring down the Holy language of antiquity.

“Love, yes.  We will call it love.”  Who can disagree?  And let us examine what implements might fit within that definition.  Most convient, this ‘love’.  Most convient indeed.”

Look how they have left off holiness.  Look how they shed righteousness.  Look how they accuse comment as judgmental attitude.  Look now, see them carry a new banner.  Legislation will now enforce love.

Even so, Lord Jesus, come.

By His Grace.

“I love to singa”


I Love to Singa

I Love to Singa (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The cartoon was released in 1936.  I remember watching it when I was a child.  It’s a familiar story line.  The little guy is beat down but he wins through skill and determination. Apparently he was born to win.  All the children who watch it, quickly identify with the little character.  “And they’re off”!

But wait a minute please.  Let’s talk about it for a moment.  Perhaps there’s something to discover here.

Four little owls hatch for mom and poppa.  The first three sing classical music, and play classical music on violin and piccolo.  But the fourth little owl comes out of the egg singing Jazz!

Poppa is mortified.  But they figure that they can teach him to sing classical.  In his training, however, the little guy os caught singing Jazz.  Poppa kicks him out of the house.

Undaunted, the lil dude goes on his way singing Jazz.  He comes to a gong show on a radio station.   After waiting his turn, he gets the chance to display his tallent.  The nasty lookin, cigar smokin rabbit loves the Jazz and puts it over the radio.

Momma is listening to the gong show at home.  When she hears her little one sing she grabs poppa and the brothers and heads to the radio station to give her little one support.

Owl Jolsen (that’s the little Owl’s name [ring a bell?]) Turns while he is singing and sees poppa watching.  With a sour look on his face he turns back to the mic and sings classical.

The profit driven rabbit is about to gong him.  But poppa and the family come rushing in to tell Owl to sing his Jazz.  In the end, they all live happily ever after because the little owl got his way.  And the mean ole poppa now loves Jazz AND his rebellious son.

This what they are teaching the children.  Rebell against authority.  Don’t worry if they hate you for it.  The world will love you for it.  Heck, even those staunch supporters of tradition will come and join you in the end!

Really?  Put that story line on a grander scheme.   Look around at the fabric of America.  Where is the truth of Christ?  What’s popular?  How many churches have fallen for that story line?  How many Christian families have seen their children walk (run) away from the teachings of Jesus?

That story line is in everything the world creates.  They aren’t just tearing at tradition.   They have been ripping away at the very fabric of stability for decades.  That cartoon was released on the thirties, remember?  They don’t want to inspire the children, they simply want to destroy what is secure and appropriate before The Holy Throne of The Living God.

They are on a roll now.  They won’t be stogpped.  They have corrupted the overwhelming majority of children.  And those wicked stories have left a tell-tale mark on several generations of adults.

Our nation is being run by students of cartoon university.   And we will now see bugs bunny lead us to destruction.  “Stay tuned!  You won’t believe what we have in store for you next’!   Whatever they produce for us, I tell you a truth, it won’t be innocent fun.

Well now.


Are you tired of seeing Christians post all that stuff you don’t want to read? And you’ve learned how to be fairly adept at getting around it; not reading it recognizing strains of words and avoiding them.

But I just got to know. What are your plans to avoid the Most High God who provokes all these words?  When you’re standing there face to face with Him where will you go what channel will you change?

Since I encounter is inevitable it might do well for you to change how you perceive his words.

Talk to the Hand


Stop! Now talk to the hand

With the proper lawyer, enough money, or a good poker face, you might beat the IRS in a court battle.  In the litigation surrounding an incident between you and any other human being, you might succeed in gaining what is not rightfully yours.

But when it comes to the Judgment of God regarding you, the strength you depended on to beat your brothers out of money, power, social standing, or any other highly prized gem of this world will be lost.  Here we stand before men able to keep secrets.  There is no such thing as a secret before the Most High God.  Here, men know when they are using a lie to gain.  There, there will be no such tool of advantage available to anyone.

I urge all men to consider this truth.  For now you can wave all this off as foolishness.  When you appear before Him, there will be no “waving off”, or “Talk to the hand.”

By His Grace.
