A word of reason from the heart

A word of reason from the heart

  



Matthew 8:20

“And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.” 


How could God exist with such evil in this world existing? Everything works together for God's purpose. Ever hear that saying? There are the cursed and there are the blessed. (John 316) This is the truth even for Nations. Evil fights against good. These are all true statements. Some are biblical.


“for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.”


  

Some people live in “Comfort” and even celebrity status and entangled in fame. But God gives us examples in his word of how the rich man ended up in hell. Luke 16:19-31 Jesus said a rich man entering his kingdom is like a camel going through the eye of a needle. There are people that live in a sea of sins but appear righteous unto men. They are favoured in the media and people buy their products and surround them selves with all these things that they see as life. But Jesus said such things are filled with deception and death. In essence they are nails in a coffin. And we humans are attracted to such things. So was Satan the fallen angel.You know that saying you are what you eat this is true. Birds of a feather. Right now people enjoy or try to enjoy or have been enjoying they're rich celebrity status or others impersonating in the footsteps of such people. They don't see the value of the less which is fruited towards the straight gate into the kingdom of God. Nor do most people believe that we wrestle not against flesh and blood and not that a demonic world exists that is not seen to the naked eye. So when you're not in Christ and you're up and in the world you're easily being tricked and utilized like a magnet almost like one sucker whom is actually being part of that world. You can’t serve both God and the devil. Remember Jesus said you must be born again to enter his kingdom. There's a profound reason for that. People not under the blood of Christ who die in their sins will face a judgment that they never thought or believed could ever exist. All of a sudden it will make sense but it will be too late.

 

For example we hear about the “Prosperity Gospel”. Sure if we have the power to heal then we would use it if we have any compassion. And I am sure God does miracles. But people want on a silver platter while they refuse to repent they just want the handouts. And in the “Sermon on the Mount” the Lord Jesus Christ understood this as he knew people were there just to be fed and desire things without change . Even John the Baptist understood this. Sure we want prosperity but do we appreciate it? Do we give God the glory? or are we consumed and mixed in the dough of the sinful world? Are you in Christ or in the world? 

 

I remember being a child and being so excited about life. My dad was a hard worker and had various types of businesses in his lifetime. I thought he was rich or very well off as it appeared so at one point in time. But in the end he lost it all. That’s when the friends left being most of them. And I know now that it was by the hand of God. God's word tells us some people will lose even the little that they have. I was so excited by Life as a child and very inventive. This was evident even from kindergarten I created things. I was very artistic. I built cars and bikes. I was good at drawing. Good at music too. Great at sports one time. In my early youth maybe 13-15 years old I had two newspaper routes and was making money. My father put me to work even before I was 16 and took me to work with him every summer from maybe 10-12 years old up. I didn't have that many summers playing with my friends. In my dads youth there was war and little food to eat. He had to provide for his family and had a chip on his shoulder. He was harsh sometimes. Sometimes he kicked my friends out of the house. Even my girlfriend of those days. He was hard on me because he knew how “Wicked” it is out there. And I looked at my friend's parents that seemed like they were from heaven and wanted that. He put me in guitar class and paid for lessons and even in accordion class. Sometimes he paid to fix my cars. He once paid for a brand new motor. He gave me more than one car. I was very fortunate in those days. Not everybody has/had it like this. But he suffered greatly later. He was a good provider and a hard worker but he was overcome by the evil businessmen that are manipulators. One time he took me to a lawyer's office as he was trying to make some deal about building properties being homes and he asked me the/his lawyer what I thought about him and this situation. I told him he was going to rip the rear end out of my father and I was kicked out of the office. On the way home which was a long ride home my dad yelled at me and said “why do you speak to them like that”. I told him you're blind and deaf. Ended up losing everything just as I warned him and I told him my mother was going to suffer as she did. That is how the devil works. Jesus said you are sanctified by the truth and the truth will set you free. Less is more. 

 

When my dad saw these big Stars on TV he thought they all went to University having degrees. He thought these known musicians that they could all read sheet music. And I would tell him some can't read music but he didn't believe that. It is true education is power. I like school. God tells us when we are weak we are strong. Blind guides!!!

 

So in life it's easy to misconstrue things. We heard bad things on the news all the days of our lives. People suffering and people with no food for their kids. Meanwhile back at the ranch there are youngsters buying expensive stereos for their expensive automobiles and they decorate them with expensive tires & hot motors and build them up. I did the same thing in my youth. Pride and stupidity was the ordered the day before coming to really know Christ and the gospel. And I had one friend that use to fill my mind with such foolishness. “These women love you cuz you're so cool.” Cool = FOOL To say that these women are whores is truly to say that we are whores because it's easy not see the dam block in your own eye. I remember sitting in the donut shop and one of my friends said about a lawyer sitting next to us so that he overheard as he called them “professional bullshitters.” Tax collectors and lawyers just like used car salesman are known suspected to be shady people. Even politicians. That's how they're seen. Even Jesus knew this.

 

So in all of this above that I said it was done for a purpose. You know the things that I highly esteemed all my life such as music, probably songwriting were not totally a waste of time & life but also can be an obstacle that blocks people to enter the kingdom of Christ. It’s true things that men highly esteem are an “Abomination” unto God. They're a waste of time really because man is attracted to “Darkness”. God is Holy. Man is sinful. We will be judged by “Every Idle Word” unless saved under/washed in the blood.

 

So now to sum it up. What is Life about if this is hell and not heaven? Because it's easy to be blind. It's easy to be deaf. There is a way to heaven but it is not the way of the world nor is it the way of deception. And many of us were so blind at one point that if it wasn't for God that did draw us/I we would not have known otherwise.

Matthew 19:26 


“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” 

King James Version (KJV)


So why is there evil in the world. Why does God allow evil. So many people have debated this. Many books have been written on this subject. The heart is abundantly “Wicked”. Are we doing our will or God's will? If God were like a magic Genie zapping out the evil daily and rewarding the good and raising the “Dead” so if at the snap of a finger we can truly hear his voice and served to our liking/favour we would be like sucking robots. We are spirits and we have a soul in human bodies. There needs to be FAITH! You see when the Rich Young Ruler wanted to hear from the Lord Jesus how to get into his Kingdom he couldn't accept it. He loved the attractions to hell of this life too much and could not bear the truth. God gave free choice/will and man abuses it and tries to force people into submission to their deceptions. Really it’s Satan and his team of supporters behind much of it.  The lord Jesus never forced anyone including the Pharisees to believe or follow. God has provisions in his word and he tells us people are destroyed/hell bound for lack of understanding. God is not religion. This is like a training ground. God is recruiting and also forgiving/graceful. It can appear like heaven to some but they are drifting away and it could appear like hell too many. As it is actually hell to many. We are our own worst enemies especially when we are deaf and can’t hear God nor obey him in this life. God has a reason that he did things in his decree as such. Despite all the evil. He has a PROFOUND reason he created the earth and life. God does have a judgement and a counsel. He knows and sees everything. Nothing you do is hidden from him. You can hide it but he sees it and knows it. What an embarrassment on judgement day. There is a profound reason that he created hell. Many are so ignorant that they think it doesn’t exist but it does. Idol worshippers are going there. Sinners are going there. In a way nobody gets away with anything but John 3:16 is a great gift. God gave his only begotten son. But men give him lipservice. 


So there once existed life in perfection before sin entered the world. The biblical story of Adam and Eve. God gave instructions but Eve and even Adam was beguiled by the serpent just as many are in this life. Many are deceived and do not obey the true God nor know him just as Eve did not as they totally disobeyed God and “Befriend” the evil sinful world. (James 4:4). God revealed his word through his prophets but men fail to believe despite by the things made it is evident of his eternal power and glory. But truly even in the past and in the present there are things that are so evil that they can’t even be spoken. And yet we have a hard time digesting this. We have to put our faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary. Life is not without a purpose.


The gospel tells us you can receive salvation and be forgiven of your sins. You can be saved. 


After notes: There are many professions with wicked people. And there are some professions that have some people with integrity. But men wax colder and colder as the Gospel tells us especially in the end times. As Jesus said what will it profit a man to gain the whole world and perish. Gods word makes it clear to help widows and the less fortunate but that does not save you. It make it clear you are to love God with everything you got and worship the lord in spirit and truth. Where are you going when you die?


“The Son of man hath not where to lay his head”


————————————————-


Galatians 1:8-9 King James Version


But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

 

Update final 10:55 am last night


Followed by Luke 13 and a sermon


Repent or Perish


 


You know I gave a plain answer regarding EVIL but I did reference scripture. Of course some reference the word "Suffering" because there is suffering in what is evil. Blessings come from the true GOD and he is merciful but also a consuming fire. The biblical lord Jesus Christ set forth the end of all evil when his Kingdom comes into being one day that will be the final last Kingdom on earth. Don't be fooled as man will deceive many bringing in an Anti-Christ. When Christ comes it will be evident throughout the planet by looking up in the heavens. For an in-depth biblical answer Ken has a blog ((Here))
