Hello Guys and Gals,
Today, I am hearing in quite a lot of places that this church over there are big sinners, or that church over there are big sinners, or this religion over here is the biggest sinners, or that religion over there are the biggest sinners.
As for me, I have something in common with the Apostle Paul in that I claim to be chief among sinners! I know many of you will not understand how both Paul and I both can be chief among sinners. It is not a claim to arrogance as some of you might say. It is a complete understanding of where I should be in God's eyes!
The relationship I have with God Almighty is solely due to the love of His Son, Jesus Christ, and all that He has done for me. Yet, I still claim to be Chief among sinners like Paul does!
12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service, 13 even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief; 14 and the grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus. 15 It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. ~ 1 Timothy 1:12-15
Even though Paul was the foremost, or chief: meaning greater than all the others, Jesus saw fit to redeem Paul unto Himself and then use Paul to bring the truth of Jesus Christ to all the world through either his preaching or his writings unto the planted churches of his labor in Christ Jesus!
You see, I also claim to be the foremost among sinners. That is my right mind for a right relationship with Jesus Christ! I must see what I have done in my life to be worse than everyone else in order for my mind and understanding to be right in the eyes of God!
Today everyone seems so concerned with appearing better or holier than everyone else! I do not. I do preach and tell the truth of the Word of God and I stand firmly in that knowledge and my stance upon that knowledge, given to me by study and revelation of the Holy Spirit for the understanding of my soul to be in a right relationship with God through Jesus Christ! As such, Jesus has seen fit to use me in communicating the truth He has revealed unto me to all those whom I love and anyone who is feeling the tug or pull of a right relationship with God!
Paul also says this should be how our relationship as Christians should be, through his example of how he lived, in their walk with Jesus Christ!
16 Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in Him for eternal life. ~ 1 Timothy 1:16
Until you, you being whomever should chance upon this I am writing, come into the full knowledge that your sins are greater than anyone else in all the history of time who ever lived in God's creation, then you will not be in a complete right relationship with God the Father, through Jesus Christ!
Am I saying I have am perfect in my relationship with Jesus Christ? God forbid, no I am not! But I am in a right relationship with him because I know, with full and complete understanding, that what I have done, the worse sin I have committed, is to put Jesus Christ up on a cross and CRUCIFIED Him with my sin! My sin alone is what put Him there, just like for you, your sin alone also put Him there! And whether just one person was saved, or uncounted numbers were saved, Jesus Christ said it was worth it to redeem just one unto Himself in a right relationship.
Being in a right relationship with Jesus Christ does not mean it is a perfect relationship, yet it becomes perfect in His eyes, for He sees that we have counted us as only able to survive this world with Him as our One and All, our Lord and Savior, our King and Rightful Ruler, our God and Creator, and our best friend in all that we need!
Jesus Christ is the answer!
What is the question? It does not matter what the question is, the correct and true answer to any problems in life is always Jesus Christ! He took all those wicked and evil deeds I have committed in my rebellion against Him and said to His Father, "I do not want this loved one of my punished! I will take his punishment upon Myself for what he has done!"
God the Father, and rightful Lord of His Creation, poured out His wrath upon His own Son, for my sins! Just mine! Nobody else's! This is my right relationship to Jesus Christ as Lord, Savior, King, and God before me!
This is how you come into a right relationship with Him as well! You must come to the full and complete knowledge that you cannot go any further without Him and that you need Him, and simply believe that His work upon the cross was sufficient grace for your sins!
Even if you still have problems in your life, pain, illness, weakness, and sin: the Grace of Jesus Christ is sufficient for all of that and even more! His work upon the cross is sufficient for anything you have trouble with!
7 Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me-to keep me from exalting myself! 8 Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me. 9 And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong. ~ 2 Corinthians 12:7-10
May God's grace shine down upon you through His Son, Jesus Christ, and the power of the Holy Spirit be given unto you for all your needs this day!

Whom Do You Worship?
Hello Guys and Gals,
Whom do you worship?
We are coming up on a time of severe persecution for those who are called by His name, Christians! As such, God will make sure you are on either His side, or Satan's side! The only way you will survive these persecutions is to commit yourself, completely and in every way, to the Lord Jesus Christ!
Yet most will not do that. As a result of the luke warm attitude, God will make sure that you are spewed from His mouth and will draw the line where you fall on Satan's side without full commitment to Him!
So I ask you today, whom do you worship?

The Word Of God Is Manifested In The Person Of Jesus Christ!
Hello Guys and Gals,
I believe that the Word of God in text is the revelation of the Word of God in person, one Jesus Christ!
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. 5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. ~ John 1:1-5 NASB
14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. ~ John 1:14 NASB
Did you know that when you doubt the Word of God in text, the Word of God in person will judge them among the sinners?
18He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. ~ John 3:18 NASB
Did you know that when you attack the Word of God in text, the Word of God in person gets angry?
12 Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God. 13 But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called "Today," so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end,
15 while it is said,
"Today if you hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked Me."
16 For who provoked Him when they had heard? Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses? 17 And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who were disobedient? 19 So we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.
When I speak about the Word of God and what the bible(Word of God) says, I am often told that this part of the Word of God does not apply today because that was meant for a time when we were not civilized.
Look around you! Do you really think this world is more civilized than the times when ANY of our ancestors lived? I think you could pick any time period on Earth throughout the history of time and you would not find more lawlessness than in our society today!
But that does not matter because God does not change, Jesus does not change, and the Word of God, written in text by God, through the agency of man; DOES NOT CHANGE!
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. ~ Hebrews 13:8 NASB
Do you believe the Word of God? I believe it and I boldly state it! Do you stand up and declare that you believe in the Word of God? Do you know that if you do not believe that you would grieve the Holy Spirit, the only sin that is warned against not being forgiven, better known as Blasphemy or the Unforgiveable Sin?
8 "And I say to you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will confess him also before the angels of God; 9 but he who denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God. 10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him.
I believe that Blasphemy, or grieving the Holy Spirit, is what happens when someone whom the Holy Spirit has brought the Word of God to, an unbeliever, and that person dies in their unbelief! I believe that this is why the Holy Spirit is grieved, because the person hardened their heart against the good news, or Gospel, about Jesus Christ, the Word of God in flesh!
Be careful, my dear friends and family, of whom I am fond of each one of you; that you do not say that the Word of God is not true today as it was yesterday! Be careful in denying the Word of God, for what happens to those who do not believe in Jesus Christ and STAND for Him before the world, even in persecution times when it is not popular to speak about Jesus Christ! Be careful in not standing up and stating that Jesus is Lord, before these whom will ridicule you and even take your life if you should declare it!
The Christian Church in Communist China and the Islamic Nations is much greater than the Christian Church members here in America! Why? Because they declare, even unto their death, that Jesus is Lord! Look at our society today and how Christians are ridiculed and so many who would call themself a Christian, do not stand up and declare that Jesus is Lord because they fear what others might think; they do not stand up and support those who do speak the Word of God in whatever forum, whether it be in speech, type, or action! Beware that you are not caught up with those who do Satan's work and not God's work! Beware, and do not heed the words of the World, but instead heed the Word of God!
May God bless you all this day through His Son, Jesus Christ, the Word of God manifested in the Flesh!

Being Made Strong And Not Becoming Stagnant!
Hello Guys and Gals,
Are you comfortable with your walk with Jesus Christ? I know that I have been, not only comfortable, but way too comfortable, in my walk with Jesus Christ!
And yet, it occurred to me tonight, that when I was comfortable in my walk with Jesus Christ, I was not growing in stature with Jesus Christ; instead, I was either being allowed rest, or being too comfortable in my walk to a point where I became stagnant!
Then, thinking about the times in which I became stronger in my walk with Him, it was always during the most trying times of my life that I grew the strongest and became most aware of my dependence upon Him to the point where I either had to grow in my walk with Jesus, or die because I no longer believed in Him.
Again I ask, are you comfortable with your walk with Jesus Christ?
Then I ask if you are being allowed rest from hard labor, or maybe you have become too comfortable in your walk to the point where you ceased working on His behalf?
I know that, if I have become rested, and I cease to resume my work in my walk with Jesus Christ, then I beg of Jesus Christ to make me aware of this so that I may return to my labors for Him to allow Him to keep breaking me so that I can keep becoming stronger and stronger in Him so that I may be acceptable in His eyes to be able to meet the challenge He puts before me where He can say, "For this reason I have made you strong so that I may spend you and that strength I built you up with for the furtherance of My kingdom!"
Do you want to be made as strong as He chooses to make you so that He can spend your life in any way He chooses for the furtherance of His kingdom?
It is truly a long, hard road ahead of you if you choose this path!
But the treasure you will have in Heaven and the glory He will bestow upon you, will certainly be worth it; then you may throw all your treasure and glory at His feet saying, "For your glory my Lord, Savior, King, and God!"
May I be spent for the furtherance of His kingdom!
May you also have the courage to also be made strong and spent in like manner as I will!

In Control?
Hello Guys and Gals,
Have you ever thought you had control of something only to realize that the control you thought you had wasn't actually there at all? I have!
I thought I had control of my anger despite my pain and all I have been through. Yet, last night, I lost my temper. I was in pain last night in an extreme way. I am not sure if it was related to the weather, something I had done, stress, being out of joint, or a combination of all the above. Yet I was not in a good way. And when talking with my friend last night a misunderstanding happened and I lost my temper.
As a result, I ended up increasing my pain to drive away my pain. Only those who are in great pain know how this works because when you cause pain to yourself, endorphins and adrenaline are released from your brain and distributed to your pain areas so that you might cope better with that pain. So I did this. Yet it is a short term relief and in the end you cause yourself greater pain that you will have to live with in the coming days.
On top of all that, I think I hurt the feelings of my friend. I cannot apologize enough to this man of great character. Seeing me lose my temper, he rightly scolded me for it and then sought to bring me relief in subtle ways that I cannot explain because I do not see how he does it. Yet, in talking with him, he got my mind off of my pain and got me to calm down. I am forever grateful for his understanding and patience and craft in the ability to bring peace to my soul. I know it is Jesus working through him, yet he somehow sees how to break through my pain and anger to find another subject or topic that distracts me or diverts me away from that which caused my anger.
I am thankful that Iron Sharpens Iron, and this man is one in which truly sharpens me and teaches me how to handle things in a crisis.
26 Be angry and do not sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your anger, 27and don’t give the Devil an opportunity. ~ Ephesians 4:26 (HCSB)
This speaks of when you are angry, be sure to not let the sun go down on your anger. In other words, seek to resolve and forgive and amend the problem so that you do not dwell upon it as you sleep. Go make it right immediately with the person to whom you are angry or with whom is angry with you! My friend was subtle, yet without guile, enough in his manner last night that when I became angry, he was able to divert me enough so that I did not go to sleep angry.
This is simply something to think upon today.
May God walk with you this day!

A Prophetic Warning!
Do you all truly think that what I am warning of is so that you can smirk at me as if it could never happen? Do you know that Obama has followed along Hitler's rise to power in perfect lockstep as his administration keeps trying to take away your rights?
I am not worried about me! I know I will be one of the very first ones hunted because of my stance against his agenda. Yet, no matter what happens to me, I have the Lord Jesus Christ who will fight my battles!
It is YOU who I am worried about! I do not want you all to suffer as I already have or will under any circumstance. I know mental pain! I know physical pain! I know social pain of stigma! I know what it means to be hunted!
Do you? Are you prepared? Do you have a plan in place if they should come for you when you least expect it? Because that is exactly what WILL happen!
I warned you all and have been warning you for over six years now! The time is coming when they will silence my voice!
Often it is said that people who can prophecy of future events do so because they have seen the past or studied it and are viewing a similar pattern in society! I have studied the past in detail that few of you can imagine. I know this pattern. It is one that has been used by every dictatorship that has existed in history. I am telling you a truth that any of you can go to the internet and compare with in the histories of mankind!
I am pleading with you to get your life straight! Get into a TRUE relationship with Jesus Christ where every word he uttered is upheld as true. For when you are persecuted, and then asked to spit on a bible or deny Jesus Christ, that is the very time you will need to say NEVER! Even if it means your death. And it probably will for this world is spiraling into darkness!
If you choose a survivor's mentality, then prepare yourself accordingly. Every day we hear of a new attack upon one of the foundations of our Constitution. When will you wake up and start preparing for the war that is coming? Start now and prepare now or you will find yourself behind enemy lines and/or living in a prison camp closely resembling Auschwitz or something similar!
I am praying for you! May your days be peaceful and God's light always illuminate your path! But if war should come, may He be ever at your side so that you are not caught unawares!
God bless you all this evening!

A Test Of Proper Focus And Obedience!
Hello Guys and Gals,
I recently had a test of obedience. Actually, I have had several. Yet I am speaking of one in specific. I was tested by God with my commitment to His way. Let me explain...
I have joined a dating site that is supposed to match you up in a way that other sites do not. I joined this site. And while being truthful with what I am looking for, a godly wife, there have been times where the truth within me has been challenged. I had a match of high probability writing me. Just before the real e-mail communication started, this lady wrote that she would probably lose me when she told me she was still pregnant with another man's child. She had joined a different dating site and met a Christian man who was a new Christian. And through their weakness, they both gave in and joined themselves to one another and had a coupling which produced a child. The man had a real crisis with it and so did she if truth be told. He did not commit to anything other than making sure the child is taken care of. And she saw this as a failure of him as a man as he did not take her to be his wife.
The challenge she issued me was whether or not I would cut off communication with her because of the child. I did not and I told her as such. So for two days I communicated with her and asked God for help with this particular problem. God showed something to me that many might not find politically correct, but I do not care about that as many of you now know. What I care about is revealing to you the truth of God's word as He has given it to us through the scripture! Let scripture be defined as the Holy Bible!
I came to the realization that this woman had joined herself to another man. Let me be clear as to how God views a physical coupling. When she willingly joined herself to this man in physical union, she bound herself to him in the eyes of God in marriage! That's right, she married this man and he married her when they had a physical coupling! Marriage has several symbolic meanings, yet one that often goes unnoticed is the symbolism of two people physically joining themselves together so that a relationship is seen through their choice of joining together.
The challenge she was asking of me is whether I would be accepting of her past (recent and not so recent) as I have often talked about not judging others for their sins. I did not judge her by this and I did accept her as a friend and was wondering if I could have a child by another man with whom I could care for as my own. I resolved that I could.
My challenge was not what she issued to me, but what would I do in this regard with another man's wife. I wrote to her to explain to her that I was shown this truth and that until she resolved her relationship with this man, as she was still with his child and would continue to have him in her life as a father to her child, let alone that it was clear that he is still struggling with commitment issues, that I would not be willing to enter in to a relationship with her until she resolved this relationship with the man whose child she is carrying. Whether they come together in marriage in the view of society, or they remain apart, she still needed to resolve this before seeking a relationship with another man. I also stated that if she needed prayer or counsel, I would be there and she had my phone number should she need to talk or pray!
See, the world is turning on it's head what we should be focusing upon. According to the view of society today, I should be accepting of other people's failed relationship consequences which they have not even dealt with yet. But should we focus instead on the biblical values, which means that these two were joined in marriage in the eyes of God, we are called intolerant and hypocrites. Yet, if any should call me that, I will remind you that I have resolved any relationship that I had with anyone and have been holding myself apart for my wife.
You may think that surely I have failed in this striving. I fully admit that I have failed in this striving, for I have often strayed in my mind and desired the fleshly world! For whether in sinning with my actions or sinning with my mind, both are sin in God's eyes! Also it would be just as big of a sin to have a relationship, or even lead another in the thought that a relationship would be possible between them and myself when they are still in a relationship with another.
This blog is about my walk and striving to keep my integrity in tact with Christ Jesus. I fail in that walk daily! Yet, somehow beyond my understanding, Jesus strengthens me and gives me wisdom, and through His strength and wisdom, He turns my failures into triumphs in my life!
As yet, I have not heard back from this lady. I feel she took the word God gave me to tell her that she should wait upon her husband to commit to her rather hard. I pray that the Lord guides her in her choices with that relationship!
My point is this: do we have the right focus on what we are being challenged with. As for me, I thought at first that the challenge was whether or not I would accept her past sins and be fine with it. Well I passed that challenge. Yet, that was not the real challenge. The real challenge was whether I would hold to God's principles on how I should treat my neighbor. I pray that I have passed that challenge as well for I did not enter into a relationship, other than a few communications, with another man's wife! This is where my focus should have been in the very first place. So do you have any challenges you are facing with the wrong focus? Has our society twisted our perceptions of what we should be focused upon? Have you asked yourself the question of whether your focus is correct in what you are facing right now?
If you haven't asked yourself, then have you asked God? Do you think it would be a good idea if you did?
May God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit come to you today and bless you in understanding and focus!
I recently had a test of obedience. Actually, I have had several. Yet I am speaking of one in specific. I was tested by God with my commitment to His way. Let me explain...
I have joined a dating site that is supposed to match you up in a way that other sites do not. I joined this site. And while being truthful with what I am looking for, a godly wife, there have been times where the truth within me has been challenged. I had a match of high probability writing me. Just before the real e-mail communication started, this lady wrote that she would probably lose me when she told me she was still pregnant with another man's child. She had joined a different dating site and met a Christian man who was a new Christian. And through their weakness, they both gave in and joined themselves to one another and had a coupling which produced a child. The man had a real crisis with it and so did she if truth be told. He did not commit to anything other than making sure the child is taken care of. And she saw this as a failure of him as a man as he did not take her to be his wife.
The challenge she issued me was whether or not I would cut off communication with her because of the child. I did not and I told her as such. So for two days I communicated with her and asked God for help with this particular problem. God showed something to me that many might not find politically correct, but I do not care about that as many of you now know. What I care about is revealing to you the truth of God's word as He has given it to us through the scripture! Let scripture be defined as the Holy Bible!
I came to the realization that this woman had joined herself to another man. Let me be clear as to how God views a physical coupling. When she willingly joined herself to this man in physical union, she bound herself to him in the eyes of God in marriage! That's right, she married this man and he married her when they had a physical coupling! Marriage has several symbolic meanings, yet one that often goes unnoticed is the symbolism of two people physically joining themselves together so that a relationship is seen through their choice of joining together.
The challenge she was asking of me is whether I would be accepting of her past (recent and not so recent) as I have often talked about not judging others for their sins. I did not judge her by this and I did accept her as a friend and was wondering if I could have a child by another man with whom I could care for as my own. I resolved that I could.
My challenge was not what she issued to me, but what would I do in this regard with another man's wife. I wrote to her to explain to her that I was shown this truth and that until she resolved her relationship with this man, as she was still with his child and would continue to have him in her life as a father to her child, let alone that it was clear that he is still struggling with commitment issues, that I would not be willing to enter in to a relationship with her until she resolved this relationship with the man whose child she is carrying. Whether they come together in marriage in the view of society, or they remain apart, she still needed to resolve this before seeking a relationship with another man. I also stated that if she needed prayer or counsel, I would be there and she had my phone number should she need to talk or pray!

Pride!
Hello Guys and Gals,
I am writing today because I have been convicted in my spirit of the sin of pride.
I have extreme pain. I have had it for 4 years now and I believe I have conquered it. Yet, there are still days and times during normal days in which I am overwhelmed with it. And even with all that, I stood tall in bragging about my pain to others who do not have as much pain as me, or maybe are just starting to cope with the pain they now have. I proclaimed it from every venue I could that I had this pain and I walk tall with it now. I pridefully boasted of nobody being able to cause me pain because I already have more than just about anyone else does, even full burn victims, for that is the level of my pain as where I am bone on bone, it transfers all that grinding into every part of my body and every joint to be at level 10 or better pain. I have bragged and boasted about this!
From everything that is within me, I sincerely apologize for this to all of you who are my friends!
A.W. Tozer says that a man must be fully conquered by God in order for God to fully bless the man. I thought I was conquered before. I was not. I am wondering how many more areas of my life He will conquer within me to bless me in the ways He wants to bless me. I am wondering how many more areas of my life that I am withholding from His rightful place of Lord over them. I am greatly fearful of what else lay in store for me. Yet, with that fear, I am fully filled with joy at the outcome of His conquering every part of me so that He may bless me with whatever He wants and that I may be spent fully for Him in bringing about His will to every part of His creation!
Once again, I apologize for my pride and I pray that you will forgive me!
May God bless you all with His presence as Lord of your life as well this day!

Politics And Religion!
Hello Guys and Gals,
Have you ever heard that speaking about Politics and/or Religion should not be done in polite society? Or in public?
This is one of the biggest Progressive strategies for keeping us focused upon right behavior that they consistently, with great effect, on Conservatives who do not argue back because of the Political Correctness argument!
I like to ask those who say that whether they like living in the USA? To which they always reply with an affirmative.
I then ask why they like it here. They come back with the arguments of how America is a great nation with great laws and people of all persuasions can find equality of justice here as opposed to other countries where they can not.
I then ask how do they think those laws came into existence. They say that they were voted on by our legislature.
I ask how come a vote. They reply that it is because of the way our government is set up.
I ask how it got set up that way. They answer that it is built into the constitution.
I ask who wrote the constitution. They reply the founders of this nation.
I ask where did they get those ideas considering they never before existed under any other nation before the USA. They reply that our founders were all great thinkers.
I ask how did they become that way. They reply that they must have had great discussions and readings abnout it.
I do all of this to point out that the Founders, who wrote and adopted The Declaration of Independence and The Constitution of the United States of America discussed these great topics of Politics and Religion in every meeting house, public house, mead hall, tavern, dining establishment, and church gathering place at those times.
Let me be clear, it is only because Progressives have shoved this notion of not speaking about Politics and Religion in public down our throats due to political correctness doctrine which everyone has bought, hook, line and sinker, that we as a nation are now suffering under this Socialist Regime in which we can easily lose those very ideas of freedom and liberty which we still have, even if in a limited capacity!
If you value freedom and liberty at all, in any way, you will start talking about politics and religion everywhere you go and with everyone you can. And this does not mean that if they throw the PC argument at you that you back down. You say, No way will you put up with that socialist lie! You stand up for your right to freedom and liberty!
For if you do not, you might as well say goodbye to it! Because if Obama gets his way, all of us, and you as well, will soon be enslaved under his continued administration of this once great nation!
May God bless you all with true understanding today!

An Abomination On The Throne Of America!
Hello Guys and Gals,
The Kingdom of God is at hand. The time is short. His anger is stirred against the one who is not in the presidency of America. Not only is God angry at this man, but He is angry also with those who support him. He is also angry at those who know to oppose this man, and yet they sit idle and not a word of anger proceeds from their mouth.
When are you going to get angry enough to be stirred against this unholy administration and stand up against it? I am talking to you who are called by His name, the name of Jesus Christ! I am talking to you who have given your heart to Jesus Christ and now sit silent when President Obama receives praise of little children who sing to him as if he were God! How can you sit idle and do not a thing against this unholy administration?
The Kingdom of God is at hand! Do not be one who is only lukewarm in your devotion to God, but instead be strong in the faith so that He does not spew you out of His mouth because you are only lukewarm! Stand up and be counted among those who will put their very lives at risk for the cause He as called us to, the defense of His Glory, His Majesty, His Name!
I pray that I am made strong, stronger than He has already made me to be, stronger than those who will come at me with their unholy machinations; so that I may willingly spend that strength in defense of His name, being tortured as I know will happen and be able to stand up for His name and never deny Him for He has given me the strength to do exactly that!
I WILL STAND!
Will you stand? Will you also be spent for His glory?
May God bless you with His love that He sees in you the very strength that He sees in me!
