HE NEVER SAID IT WOULD BE EASY

HE NEVER SAID IT WOULD BE EASY

I find it unbelievable that a nation such as ours could have deteriorated to the point we are at today. We have arrogant leaders, oppressive police and corrupted courts claiming that they are our best hope in this evil society. What a joke.

I am amazed to hear a police officer claim to hate liars when he and his brothers and sisters in “Law Enforcement” are not only willing but trained liars with the blessing of our leaders and courts. That is some example for our children. What hypocrites.

I’m fed up with Politicians who will go along with any philosophy that will advance their careers, regardless of the morality or lack of it.

I am sick of presidents who have no respect for the office they represent and the services under their leadership.

We have schools that teach lies as absolute truth while also teaching that there are no absolutes. Sex is the primary form of entertainment and pleasure is the only thing worth living for. How did we arrive at this place in time? Where will it all end and when?

While it may seem impossible to know the answers to these questions it is not. What we are now experiencing is fully spelled out in God’s word and the timing is there also. These truly are the final days and the number of them is low. While no man may know the day or the hour it is true that the Father in heaven has determined that day and hour before even time began. We are fast closing in on that time of termination.

It’s hard to explain what brings on the dark moods. As Christians we fall into the trap that convinces us that we are being attacked and led into our black moods by Satan who is the ruler of that world. But in truth that is a lie that has been perpetrated by the very church that claims eternal loyalty to the one who gave HIS all for our salvation. Satan becomes the crutch that we hold on too hoping that our carnal rationalization will be accepted because others are using this same explanation for deeds we know are no ones fault but our own. It is the willingness to allow ourselves to become mired in self absorption that makes it possible to avoid facing the truth head on .We refuse to acknowledge the diminishing of our spiritual life and claim the hectic process of everyday life as the undefeatable reason for our slowly drifting away from the only security we can claim. The process of living becomes the scapegoat and shoulders the blame for our inadequacies. Many of us are eventually awakened by the Holy Spirit and while not understanding what has occurred or being sure of what we expect of and for ourselves we realize that there is little or no satisfaction in the life we are living. When we look at and examine individual cases it seems that we are witnessing a variety of complex reasons for the place we find ourselves at and the actions that we have taken. This is also an untruth and must be exposed for what it really is. There are only two groups of people that exist in this dimension of being. The first are the saved and the second are the unsaved. Each is enmeshed in their own situation. The unsaved are searchers of an unknown god. The saved are searchers of the truth. I would like to explain what I am referring too and I believe that you will see the truth in what follows.

The unsaved first group, realize at some point in their lives (usually at the seemingly highest point of their lives) that something is missing. There is no awareness of what it is but the emptiness is gnawing at their very being and they slowly understand that if it is not somehow filled there will be uncontrollable problems. Some how and some way they feel that they must fill the void and then they will truly be happy. While the solution to the problem has already been supplied they do not partake of it because that would mean accepting something or someone other than themselves. They would have to turn outward and the self indulgent fight with all their might against such a drastic move. As a result it does not happen.

The second group posses the answer to the emptiness felt by the first group and yet there suddenly appear complications that were neither expected, nor prepared for. The saved understand that their lives now have purpose so they set about seeking the ultimate goal with a heartfelt desire to complete whatever it is that God desires them to do. The problem they often wind up with is that they refuse to wait for God to lead. With heads held high they venture forth sure that as they boldly march into the fray somehow their mission will become clear. If only they would accept that the purpose of their lives can be found in the will of God and only he can reveal it to them.

Both groups are being called by the Spirit of God which has been sent forth among them with the express purpose of gathering His children to Him. At a precise time that God the Father has foreknowledge of the unsaved person will face the moment of decision. The opportunity is made possible by God but the acceptance must be made by man. Does this mean that God is not sure of how He will be received? Of course not! The events occur in the order they do so that all are given an equal chance and can never complain that they were treated unfairly.

The truth is revealed to all and all are led to the moment of final decision. I refer to it as the moment of final decision because once a decision is made God accepts it without reservation. Don’t be misled by those who insist that you can refuse today and change your mind tomorrow. God is a just and loving Father who expects you to be as true to your decision as He is to His promise. He will hold you to your decision!

Many readers will disagree with these statements and use the common argument to substantiate their beliefs. “God is a merciful and forgiving God who because of His desire for all of us to be saved will allow us to procrastinate or vacillate between the possibilities as long as we desire. If we decide that the time is not right for us to accept His offer of grace and mercy He will just wait until we have had more time to think it over eventually coming to the proper decision. Then He will give us another “final moment of decision.”

For the sake of all who believe this lie I have a deep sorrow in me but I accept what God has ordained because He is our God and we are His to do with as He pleases.
