Another quasi rant

(There’s no need to apologize.  There are millions who feel the same way.)


I’m going to try to be nice.  But it’s really difficult.   What kind of words can talk about this and be nice?  


I’m tired of being told I should do something that God has told me not to do.  “Don’t join in with the celebration of lust that you see in the world.”  (A paraphrase of 1000s of scriptures)


I’m so sick of hearing about diversity.  I would agree when it comes to cultures and the color of skin.  Maybe even diversity according to physical ailment.  And the frailty of humans to do with is perfect and right, that needs to be mentioned.  Yeah, why wouldn’t I accept them just like I am accepted before God in Jesus?  But we all know that’s not what they mean.


They mean that I should treat a person as if they are righteous regardless what they do with their body.  If it’s done in secret, then how should I treat them any differently than the cultural differences I accept?  I don’t strive to suspect, I don’t strive to judge, I strive to accept and to bring life.


But when they make an open mockery of God’s natural will ………………..


Right about here I launch into all kinds of negative words.  God does not call people to mediocrity or less.  He calls us all to his Holy standard.  The watering hole is in the east.  But the mass of people are headed west to the desert!  I’m not supposed to say anything?!!!  I’m not supposed to despise these orders to comply?  


This isn’t going to “just go away” folks.  Maybe it’s time to take an open stand.  It’s already too late for the world; see how they adore their new-found freedom.  But there really ought to be a mega voice being heard.  I listened hard, but all I hear are whispers in the inner rooms!  


Whatever……………..

“Frivolous” Humanities Helped Prisoners Survive in Communist Romania

(I tried to comment on the writer’s article in his page.  But his page would not accept a WordPress login.  So I make this entry in my blog in the hopes that it will reach the writer.  Who knows, perhaps it will also reach a soul somewhere else.)

In that writers article he describes how the government legislates its own morality.  The writer says that he found the government’s methods and its operating premise to be at fault, simply by humanity’s insistent efforts to circumvent unjust laws.

The writer says this: “If the study of literature or history were really that pointless, a government trying to control the minds of its subjects would not go to the trouble of putting humanities students and professors in jail.”

Isn’t the same thing true of Jesus?  Part of the proof of his royalty is the venomous activity of his enemies.  And if all of Jesus is true, proved by the activity of his enemies alone, wouldn’t it be wise to consider his words.  If he is truly life are we wise to ignore him?

Glorious Riches

It was sewn from dust.  And to this dust it will return.  This tent of mine which hides glorious riches.  Men have held gold to their breast and thought themselves rich.  But what is truly rich evades their fingers.  Like the monkey who clasped his hand around the morsel in the jar, they will never grasp what’s true.  They hold dear the things of perception.  But they can never perceive what is dear.

 

Strivings of the Ungodly

How carefully you plot to remove the Most High God from this world;

Strip Him of His Glory and replace His words with lies.

In secret rooms you whisper the words of plans so deep.

“We’ll take this first. And then the next. Then bit by bit He’ll shrivel in our midst.”

Secret Passage #3And as your plot unveils, you marvel at the ease.

It seems there’s no one to stand against those thoughts that begged for release.

There is a day when you will dance.

That hidden glee will celebrate openly.

And on that day utter horror awaits.

For when you think you have won the Lord Himself will appear.

Send your presents to one another, and dance that dance of joy.

All your work goes with you, as you stand before the Lord.

You didn’t want Him here. He won’t want you there.

And here you have a year or two.

There, eternity will move suddenly without you.

I applaud your striving.

It’s obvious you’re strong.

But what strength will you have when all your hope is gone?

Take what’s not yours.

Please take all you will.

We must make sure that all you have fills up unholy hell.

NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NEWS FLASH:

The general voting public will not affect the corruption in Washington.  The vote of even 4 million people will not compare to the money, power, and prestige that can be gained by wearing the title of government.  And so, as long as power can be gained by being “voted” into office, corruption will reign supreme.

Was this really a news flash?  Don’t we all know this to be true?  Though we wail and moan, gripe and complain, about the corruption of power in Washington, we will never be able to stop it.  Let’s set this as a mark in the sand:  Men are corrupt from birth.  Perfect power corrupts perfectly.  And any measure of power a man holds over another is quite possibly as corrupt as the measure of power he is able to assert.
