"You Must Believe And Not Doubt"

Moral relativism . . . is an old, old, old technique of deception . . . since the snake in the garden.

Communism/Marxism . . . is a fairly new version to make it seem palatable in "modern times" to those who hate God.

Moral absolutes . . . come from God.  

The devil is a liar and a perverter of all that is Good and of God.  And those who find themselves seduced by relativism are strolling the wide way which leads to Hell.

The pressure is intense, from all sides, to conform . . . to the image of the beast.  DO NOT take the bait.

DO NOT make allowances to "get along" with the world.

We are in the pitch of THE Spiritual battle!  You know it, who know it!

Those who don't, I fear for and have compassion for, and will and do always keep pleading to awaken to the awe-full truth, as grace allows.

"Behold, The Kingdom Of God Is In Your Midst." --Luke 17:21

He was (in their physical midst) when He said that at that time.  

And since The Holy Spirit was then engaged to "bring all things to your remembrance" (--John 14:26)  after He departed (in the flesh) THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS IN YOUR MIDST NOW!  

Do not be seduced or dissuaded from that which you know is True, THE Righteous, Everlasting Living Truth!  GOD! The Lord, King Messiah, Trinity, Godhead, Father, Holy Spirit--The Triune God Written of in the living scripture!

The rebel forces, principalities, are let run amok, here at the end, for a time--but just to yet prove the grace of God; for those who Know Him will cleave to The Truth, regardless of the currents and tides of wafting, worldly nefariousness.  

"But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind." --James 1:6

Stay strong, steadfast, perseverant, despite the seeming winds of change--(there is nothing new under the sun)--for they are but yet one last, desperate attempt at massive illusion, to dissuade the pilgrim's progress away from The Way of THE TRUTH! 

Beware...and also Take Heart

 

Luke 16:19-31  

“There once was a rich man, expensively dressed in the latest fashions, wasting his days in conspicuous consumption. A poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, had been dumped on his doorstep. 

All he lived for was to get a meal from scraps off the rich man’s table. His best friends were the dogs who came and licked his sores. 

“Then he died, this poor man, and was taken up by the angels to the lap of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried. In hell and in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham in the distance and Lazarus in his lap. He called out, ‘Father Abraham, mercy! Have mercy! Send Lazarus to dip his finger in water to cool my tongue. I’m in agony in this fire.’ 

“But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that in your lifetime you got the good things and Lazarus the bad things. It’s not like that here. Here he’s consoled and you’re tormented. Besides, in all these matters there is a huge chasm set between us so that no one can go from us to you even if he wanted to, nor can anyone cross over from you to us.’ “The rich man said, ‘Then let me ask you, Father: Send him to the house of my father where I have five brothers, so he can tell them the score and warn them so they won’t end up here in this place of torment.’ 

“Abraham answered, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets to tell them the score. Let them listen to them.’ “‘I know, Father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but they’re not listening. If someone came back to them from the dead, they would change their ways.’ 

“Abraham replied, ‘If they won’t listen to Moses and the Prophets, they’re not going to be convinced by someone who rises from the dead.’”

Do Not Turn To The Right Or Left

 "Attention attention . . . everybody look at me."

This is a metaphysical, Spiritual crux. . . . Attention . . . is energy, light, love.  IT SHOULD BE FOCUSED ON THE LORD.

This is what kicked off the evil--the twisting of that reality.  And it still does to this very moment.

The devil and all of his/her/they/it spawn . . . is mad, resentful, jealous, covetous that attention is not directed at "them".  Legion.

Meanwhile, all of existence, creation, creatures . . . is at THE BEHEST OF GOD!  ALL ATTENTION, ADORATION, WORSHIP, LOVE . . . ought be directed, thankful, humbly, directed toward THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY CREATOR!  THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GOD OF ALL! 

For none of us can breathe another breath, but for His Grace and Lordship!

Every mess since the original rebellion and original sin has to do with this deep, intrinsic move to try and wrest away God's Awesome Sovereignty, and try to glean some shine for oneself.

HENCE, why most everything now is geared to distract and drive ATTENTION to one's self via social media etc.  

Feedback loops, technically driven, encourage this dark, evil trend.  

THANK GOD for THE HOLY SPIRIT Who guides the Children of God through the wild chaos.  The subtle thread increases FAITH in THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GOD!

If you know you know.  If you have ears to hear, you hear.  If you have eyes to see, you see.  

Just SHOUTING THROUGH THE DIN here . . . . . . . . . . . Illegetimi Non Carborundum!!!

WE are not bastards.  

We are the living sons and daughters of THE ETERNAL FATHER CREATOR.

The rest are of the rebel--the creepy one who perverts and seeks to destroy, devour, subvert, murder.

I live in holy terror of God.  The fear of God is the BEGINNING of wisdom.

He is almighty!  HE is LOVE!  He is Holy!

Don't slight Him.  

DO fall down on face, recognizing His Sovereignty, and plead for His mercy.

AND THANK GOD,  HE is merciful! 

"Look straight ahead, neither to the left or right."   Proverbs 4:25-27

Take Heart And Have Faith, O Ye Children Of The Living GOD!

Beware.  

I saw it and said it was coming . . . where discerning The Truth amidst a thousand asserted "truths" would vie . . . for your attention each and every moment, day . . . rest of life.

We are there.

My brothers and sisters IN GOD . . . I am one, like you, hanging on to THE Life Raft . . . shouting through the din--nowadays, through the psychotronic "electronic fencing" mind-control din. . . . 

JUST KNOW and take solace, that SPIRIT--THE HOLY SPIRIT always rises above, and is Intrinsically beyond the petty wiles of the wicked one.  

YES, it is a fight and a struggle!  Praise God He keeps you separate (holy) apart from the materialistic chaos abounding.  Believe, trust, have faith.  Never forget, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD WITHOUT FAITH. (Heb. 11:6)

And let that sink in.

IT IS IMPOSSIPLE TO PLEASE GOD WITHOUT FAITH!

Faith is a substance.  It transcends the usual brain, worldly mind machinations that we daily experience.  Faith is of a SPIRITUAL substance--it is spiritually visceral! And is the stuff of Heaven and His Being.  You become one with Him, through this substance (faith) and it is also the means by which He receives your communication . . . and communion.

It is like manna. . . .

It is given.

We praise and love and worship and believe in and have FAITH IN GOD . . . because He bestows that substance within us.  The Kingdom Of God is Within. . . . 

I do resist saying "in these times" ... or  .. "in this day and age" when addressing what seems to be an especially new oppressive and destructive/subversive/perverse era (for those phrases have become  hackneyed meme/phraseology . . . which tends to cheap-shot, short-circuit the vital and blessed connection between one's current, material body/soul worldly self experiences and history and especially relationship with The Lord.)  And nothing is new under the sun.  It has been this way since The Fall.  

So don't feel fancy, new and unique in your suffering the fallen state. . . . 

Because, as always . . . NOW IS NOW . . . and NOW is always the time to be aware of, and abide by the Eternal Spirit of God, regardless of trends, memes, mis-directions, subversions, mundane tropes etc., and etc.  

For, for us, at any "time" . . . this IS "in these times" . . . and in "this day and age" . . . . . . . . 

And knowing this, when The Lord said "The Kingdom Of Heaven is at hand.... ," He was speaking Truth.  The Kingdom Of God is ever now, within--even for us in this fleshly, worldly ramshackle run. 

It "was" then . . . and It/He is "now".  

The Word of God is always present, living, starkly modern and applicable.  The Word Of God is eternal. . . . Time and mind and memories and worldly kerfuffle's . . . come and go.  

(And, my friends, pardon my seeming overuse of punctuation/emphasis! :) It is near impossible to convey in written missives the vision and knowledge of Spiritual matters, as you Know.)

But Know this.

The Word is NOW.

God is Now.

God loves and adores you now!  For you are His precious creation.  EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU!  

Yes . . . YOU!

(And the scripture--His Word--absolutely confirms this! So take heart, and have faith!)

When The Walls Come Tumbling Down, Praise God!

 I am aware of the chatter.  I recall, not so long ago, in the wee hours, "seeing" a multiple city hit--I believe I saw that it was going to happen and that it will be a stunning "shock & awe" style attack(s).  

Why wouldn't they?  It's old-style takeover, last stages of the "revolution" kind of warfare.  Obviously, the "lawfare" is doing its part.  But at some point it goes kinetic.  HENCE . . . the only real "preparation" is truly and (thank God!) SPIRITUAL.

The things they have done, do, and, will do . . . to Christians, Believers, is . . . well . . . written and known of, in the books and scriptures of martyrs.  

The torments of this fallen world . . . are truly a small speck of annoyance . . . compared to the Grace and Beauty and Love and Reward that The Father God Creator has in store for His Children.  And even  compared to the torments in store for those who despised and wanted nothing to do with God, and will get their wish--eternity bereft of The Lord's Presence--horrific beyond imagination, the Truth and Glory of God is beyond.  I don't wish it even on the worst of our enemies.  But God is Holy, and no unclean things can possibly be in His presence.

Without FAITH . . . it is impossible to please God.

The heathen, the devil worshipers HATE that part of His design!  

It all reduces to humility, submission TO GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY, but the rebellious spirit chafes and says waaa waaa  waaa, "I deserve...I expect . . . I'm owed . . .  etc., etc.,"

The rebellious spirit gets angry, resentful, cries, complains and then is tempted (and most often does) throw in with THE O.G. rebellious spirit!  As in, THE DEVIL (and/or his seedy lieutenants are sitting on your shoulder, beware the temptation to calumniate The Lord God.

BUT, the Children of God . . . do NOT do that, even though, they often feel the same.

HENCE.

THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD!  Is Where He is At.  And where YOU are blessedly at, God Willing, despite the machinations of The Evil One and his paltry, fallen degradations trying to throw you off of The Way, if he could...... (he can't;)....

God Rules.  Jesus Is King.  The Holy Spirit . . . are ONE GOD, THE ONLY ONE AND TRUE GOD>!

So, when the walls inevitably come tumbling down, the righteous lovers of God yet stand victorious with and in His Holy Presence!  Praise God!  With an eye single to the glorious prize. . . !
