In the remembrance of God: we speak of things He has done in generations past, and we speak of things He will do in generations yet to come.
WHAT ABOUT THE GENERATION THAT IS. . . WE?!
This is the time that IS.

Cherished Opinion
God is far too large to explain in full. Not to mention that he only revealed to man those things that pertain to man. Yet for all his extreme enormity, God is a singular person. He is his Word. He is Jesus.
There are great works written about this topic. I don’t intend to elaborate any further here. The point of this writing is not to glorify God, in a manner of speaking. Rather this is to help those who cherish their own opinions about God and who they are.
I can tell you from my personal experience, there is a God. Many have said to me, “So you say, but you have no proof”.
Yes. I do have proof but you won’t believe it. The proof I offer you is that you should believe in God. That you should pray to him. That you should read his holy Word the Bible. And that you should ask sincerely of those who display the character of Christianity. Do this and you will find the proof you say I don’t have. Gain Christ by the mercy of God and the proof will be in you.
As you venture down the Christian Road, you will encounter the most difficult life a man can live. At the same time you will encounter an unspeakably glorious peace. It is not the kind of peace people can lay their hands on in this world. It is a peace that comes from heaven and delivers the things of heaven.
If you are sincerely looking for proof that there is a God, take my advice. And if indeed there is a God, such as Christianity describes, it is imperative that you seek his mercy. If you like living, don’t want to die, and want truth and peace, submit yourself humbly before the living God.
Fake Food
People struggle all over the world, all day long, from birth to death. They all desire peace. I am put in mind of all the useless trinkets of religion this world offers as a pacifier. Are the people satisfied? Can a baby survive on a piece of rubber stuck in his mouth? Isn’t it the obligation of adults to feed the children?
God brought you to His Holy Son that you may have peace. He delivers you everlasting confidence before Him all your days.
Gods people eat from an overflowing banquet table filled with all the beautiful things the impoverished nations need.
Shall we sit on the front steps of His exquisite house and eat the good things in full sight of all the people who are starving? Or should we spend our lives here trying to convince the starving that what we eat is LIFE?
Let each of God’s people wrestle with the answer.
Vegas Everywhere
Vegas, is there some mystically important to that geographical place? They say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
I’ve got news for everyone, what happens anywhere in this world accompanies us to the throne of the Most high God. Not one particle of dust in this world will offer us immunity, no matter what we call it and no matter where it is.
If you want immunity, live the life of Christ.
8. “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9. Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy to gloom. 10. Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.”
Christ is not a box to be checked. He is a life to be lead.
He IS
Consider the Lord Jesus.
From the beginning the Living God spoke Living words.
This is the Lord Jesus, the Christ of God.
He IS.
Consider His testimony among us. Faithful,
He IS.
His crucifixion is not what He was.
He IS.
The machine of our sin had no hold on Him. From the Living God,
He IS.
Of the Living God,
He IS!
The “Other” People
God is permanently first. Those who earnestly seek his lovely face in Christ will be living an entirely different life.
Their life is born from heaven. It is a life granted by the Living God out of his mercy in Christ Jesus and for His own purposes.
It is a life lived by the rules of heaven. It is a human heart that aches for home. For them, the voice of the Spirit of God overrides society’s supremacy.
Outwardly, they are like any other human. Inwardly, the violence of the war within them evades description. The end of their war will come the moment they can tear off their flesh and ascend to the home they desire so deeply.
They cannot define peace like the world defines peace, they cannot have tranquility here. Tranquil, to them, is the promise of God.
21. When Enoch had lived 65 years, he fathered Methuselah. 22. Enoch walked with God after he fathered Methuselah 300 years and had other sons and daughters. 23. Thus all the days of Enoch were 365 years. 24. Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him. (Genesis 5)
We are forced to ask this question, “Who does our actions and thoughts say we are?” The answer is already in the hand of God the Father.
How many even ask the question, comparing themselves to the expectations of Christ?
