How could you!

A man caught in a small amount of trouble receives the accusation that if he were given the chance he would do far worse.  When asked to explain himself, the accuser goes on to describe some heinous crime.  And in the accusation he points at the poor man as if this man had already done these things.  From his own wicked imagination the accuser hopes to destroy another.

Sadly I am not just writing fiction here.  This happens all day long across the entire surface of the globe.  From their wicked imagination men blame others for faults they do not possess.  Then, as if that were not sufficient, they turn to look at the ugliness around them and blame God.

They themselves have caused this putrid stench.  Yet they have the gall to blame God.  But the Lord will remain blameless, for even as they accuse He holds out his hand that He may save them.

For now they do not know righteousness.  They do not know love.  They do not know kindness, mercy, or justice.  They do not know the living God we serve through Jesus The Son.   But this is why I have written this post.  I write this that some may come to their senses and learn from Him who is Love.

The Father of Lies

He saw.  He learned.  He practised.  But he was not able to contain what he took in.  Pride swallowed him from the inside out.  As the righteous attributes of God grew, so did pride.

One moment surfaced the thought, “I will make a challenge.  I am worthy to be first.”  But it was just a thought.  Or was it?

Pride was nearly mature now.  The harvest of sin was near.  No, it was not “just a thought” .  It was the very instrument of harvest.

In deed, you will be first.  You are the father of lies.  The Lord Himself has given you that title.  And what was your desire has been given to another.  You contrived to murder Him.  But, to your horror, His righteous heart cannot remain in the grave!  HE IS FIRST!  And He is worthy to remain first forever.

No more challenges will surface.  None of those being groomed to take your place will ever consider equality with God something to be grasped.  No one will ever appear again who will resemble you.  Those He is redeeming are not from holy stock.  They are of sin and blood.  Jesus has purchased them with the very blood you caused to run free.  This will be their mark for eternity, “The Holy Lord of life has had mercy on us and for this He is our God”!

You are undone!  He, the Holy Lamb you slew, has opened your eternal reward.  There you will utterly perrish.  All who worship you will accompany you.  We will all turn our backs to you and truth will live among God and His people forever.  Amen!  Amen!  Amen!

What?

What did God ever do that anyone should hate Him?  What?  Did he give life?  Is that worth hatred?  Did He give items that induce joy?  Is that worthy of hatred?  What?

 

It is the flesh that hates the Lord.  Yet there’s more.  The hatred of the flesh is but a shadow of the hatred satan has for the Lord.  Yet, why hate the Lord who gave life to those who hate Him?  Even now, He gives them what they need.  Yet, “They have hated Me for no reason”.

Greed hates love.   God created satan.  Satan turned to see the glory of God’s righteous qualities.  “I will make those qualities mine and the others will love me.”  But time moved on.

Love for the righteous qualities of God became an obsession for grandeur.  Satan desired the position of God.  “Then they will love me”, he thought to himself.

Death was born when hatred entered in.  Where is that point?  Only those who begin to love the Lord can point to that place.  Because, where we die is the very place where we begin to live.

As long as you refuse to embrace the Lord Jesus, you continue in the hatred for the Father.  God the Father has loved The Son with a love which knows no breaking or separation.  This is not so for the way God the Father will treat His enemies.  The end of such hatred is uniquely singular, death.  I beg you, give this some serious thought.

Unspeakable Joy

I was sitting here, mindlessly playing a video game (bloons, if someone asks).  I’m considering the way things are.  Waiting for the dawn.

 

I gave some thought to the promises of God and all heaven let loose in my mind.  Here ya go:

 

God does not lie.  So anyone who believes on the Son of God for their salvation, will receive it.  That means all the promises of God for eternal joy are mine!

 

I get to love the Lord for eternity!  I get to see the face of Jesus and not be ashamed!   I get to live and not die the second death!  I get to see the great men and women of God, and enjoy them!   If I enjoy the things of this creation, trees, sky, wind, etc.  then how much more will the new earth please those who live there?

 

Then the reality of all this hit me.  “Quiet”!  Don’t speak of these things too loudly or often.  There are millions who won’t understand.  Even some of those I love now won’t understand.  They will, in fact, take my joyful celebration as an offence.

 

So I preach.  I speak of God and His beauty.  But I do so, for their sakes, in rather subdued tones.  The promises are mine!  But so is the desire to save others.  And what good will it do if any of their hatred for God’s promises (which non-belief is) falls between they and I?  So I realized that I have “Unspeakable Joy”!!!!!!!!!

Folly at its Best

There is no crisis better than the one which gives those in power a chance to grab more to themselves.   There is no greater folly than to do oneself more damage by refusing to admit an error.

If there is a distinguishing difference between Christians and non-believers, it is that they recognize their folly and are willing to approach the Lord because of it.  Darkness hates the light and will not come into it for fear that its deeds may be seen.

It has been said the Christians are not perfect, just forgiven.  But to complete that phrase is the requirement that men who approach the Lord, to bear their folly, are willing to receive correction.

It is a horrible weight to bear ones on folly before the Lord.  It is folly upon folly to retain this stupidity in spite of knowing better.  For the judgment will show each man’s work according to truth. It is far better to receive failure because of our folly; the scorn of men rather than the scorn of God.

The man who writes this knows this to be true for I am a fool.

How amazing it is!  How delicately horrific!  Finding peace in a hurricane; joy in a tornado.

Who can find the strength to plow when the very ground beneath your feet is ripped to oblivion?   And what shelter in what cave will you find when the very rocks themselves are thrown about?

If by chance you seek a friend, his face becomes filled with terror as he sees your life.  Isolation, faith and trust these are what remain.

The Lord himself has encased you in testing.  Yet you will stand even if death consumes you.  He made you.  He bought you.  He promised you.  He loves you.  And by the torrent of testing the proof is upon you.

All praise to God the Father through Jesus, His Christ!  He alone is true.  He alone is good.  He alone can be trusted.  He is the living God.
