What Does IT Take TO FEEL Shame?

What does *IT* take to make one ~~FEEL~ shame in this modern day and time? Repentant? Thankful? Humbly Obedient ~~TO~~ THE ONE TRUE GOD?
There is one Bible verse and subject that I have never heard a preacher present, to a congregation… Not that someone hasn’t, for maybe I am at fault for missing *IT*… BUT I’ve attended many services, even VBS and seen & heard, many things that would be in direct contrast, contrary, to this scripture of instruction carried on in God’s House OF Worship….
Jesus threw the money changes, out saying; “Make *NOT* My Father’s House a house of merchandise” (John 2: 13-16)
Do we respect the places where people are assembled today to: Worship the LORD? Do we the people show respect, and honor to THE ONE TRUE God, In that place that we are called to come together to: Preach, Pray, Praise, The Father & His Son, Jesus Christ? OR, do we tote in all sorts of ~~merchandise~~ of the world, to be displayed, sold, (Sold by promotion of their customs).. installed in the services, above, over, and instead of, The True Gospel of: THE Kingdom of God and the Gospel of HIS Son Jesus Christ, AS IT IS Written of Truth in THE Bible, God‘s Holy Book of ~ALL~ Instruction?
So many times I have watched the little children, under the instruction of the adult leaders, march the flag of this nation into the front door, down the isle, to the Alter before the LORD, and the congregation stand and pledge their, ~~Allegiance~~ to: A piece of cloth, a banner, an ensign, that represents, a nation of this world, AND to ~~THE~~ Republic for which ~~IT~~ stands. This saddened my heart and when I spoke out against this action in God’s House of Worship, I was met with anger from the leaders, …leaders who call themselves after God‘s Son, . Because, I stood up for the ~~TRUE ENSIGN~~ of God’s Kingdom… *AS IT IS Written*….
(John 18:36)… Jesus SAID: “My Kingdom ~IS NOT~ of this world”….
(Luke 4:3-13)… Jesus SAID: Get thee behind Me Satan, FOR IT IS Written, thou shalt WORSHIP THE LORD, thy God and HIM Only shalt thou serve“.. This after Satan had offered Him, (Jesus), (HOW MANY?) *ALL* ~The kingdoms~ OF The ~World~… And again Jesus SAID: “Thou shalt *NOT* Tempt THE LORD Thy God”…. &&&
(Luke 4:16-19),.. Jesus entered into the synagogue… ON THE *Sabbath Day*, (TO Do what, praise the nations, carry in their flags, sing happy birthday to all who were celebrating their fleshly days of birth, when IT WAS GOD that Brought them into this world to prove themselves?) OR … To preach the ~~Acceptable Year of THE LORD~~ The Gospel TO: The poor, broken hearted, deliverance to captives, set at liberty them that are bruised… & ~READ~~ The writings of the *Old Testament* prophet “Isaiah”…… Things Beneficial to our eternal life and not the frivolities of this fleshly life…..
And IT Was pointed out to me that they march and pledge to the flag that represents: ~Religion~ TOO, ALSO? That in itself is conflict, because I can’t for the life of me see how our ~~Loyalty~~ can be doled out amongst many different factions. That to me IS like saying, you are loyal to: Buda, on one hand, and loyal to Mohammad, on the other, and somewhere in the rear, Jesus is on our plate of doled out loyalties tooooo…
AND, when you really look at IT Truthfully, there are many ~~Religions~~ SO A Religious Flag only represents a belief, any belief, SOOOO I can not grasp this either… Because a Satanist or and Atheist IS A part of a religious group… a group which believes in their own teachings….. SOOOOOooo….
This really puzzled me that a people who called themselves… Christian …. After the Blessed Name of God’s Son, would not rather lift up God’s OWN Ensign, IN HIS House of Worship, than the flag of the nation, or a religion… AND I thought, IF, we can’t lift up: *Exclusively* God’s Only Begotten Son AS THE Ensign of God THE Father’s Kingdom, IN The House of Worship, set aside for: “Christians” to gather into, for the purpose of worshiping the LORD, WELL, Where on earth can or should we lift up the NAME OF Christ?….
We gladly fight, walk about with banners in protest, to keep the Blessed Name of God’s Only Begotten Son in the worlds seasonal celebrations and holidays, on Caesars money and declare freedom of Christianity, BUT, when IT IS Time TO Exercise that ~~Freedom~~ we turn back to our own vomit, to our loyalty of a heathen generation, led by the ~adversary~ of Christ…
We protest and cast blame on the government for taking the Bible and Prayer out of it’s learning system, the “Ten Commandments” out of ~IT’S~ buildings of law…. AND yet we gladly take them out of God’s House’s of Worship and replace them with the teachings of man’s traditions, pagan cultures, national pride, and anything that looks good and provides ~~FUN~~ for all… Where IS the shame? Where IS The humble repentance?
Jesus said: (Mark 12: 14-17)… “Whose IS this image and superscription?” (Washington, Lincoln, or Caesar?) The ~Inscription~ ? Most ~Inscriptions~ on Caesars coins, pointed to the ruler ship of the kings, linage, and some even pointed to false gods… SOOOO …**NOTE** That Jesus never said: “Add My Father’s Name TO these coins and all will be well in the nation, BUT! Jesus Said: “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s & *TO God*, the things that ARE God’s”…. &&&
(John 4:24)… Jesus SAID: “God IS A Spirit, and they that ~Worship~ HIM Must ~Worship~ HIM (God) IN Spirit & Truth”…
Where IS THE Truth in the mixed fables taught to the little children in: Santa’s ~Miracles~ OF Christmas trees, the colored eggs that the Easter bunny brings, and that in taking part in these things we are honoring Jesus, by pretending that we are looking for Him in a pagan celebration, the spooks and goblins that scare them at Halloween, teaching them that ~This Nation, and IT’S soldiers and wars IS What makes and keeps us free?…. How Well DO you, who teach them, *KNOW* Jesus? The Jesus that you teach them ~~Loves them,~~ but the Jesus that you show them can do nothing and IS nothing in the way you present Him to them, because all these other things IS What you teach them to LOOK TO…. Taking their eyes off of THE Savior, their Maker, their Redeemer, even in the celebrating of their earthly births in God’s House’s of Worship… AND Yet IT IS These things that we get all puffed up and angry over and would fight tooth and nail to preserve, while dismissing ~The~ Teaching of *The Gospel of God’s Kingdom* & THE *Gospel of God’s Son* Jesus Christ, by lifting up THE *ENSIGN* of God’s Kingdom ONLY AND EXCLUSIVELY IN God’s House’s OF Worship…. Sad, Shame, Shame, Shame….
No wonder we have a generation of folks that think nothing of: tattooing our bodies; walking into God’s House half naked, displaying our flesh all over the place, advertising our ~~sexy~~ appearance in a world, that has lost all its, morals… coming out of the “homosexual” closets and expecting to be accepted any and everywhere, and by all people, cause they can’t help IT… Toting books of beauty merchandise to sell in the pews during the services, or fun game magazines, or our game phones to play with during the TIME Set Aside for WHAT? Respect? Honor? Loyalty? Obedience? IN Service, teaching, learning, praising, praying, and giving of *Thanks* TO God, our Creator, our Eternity, our life, our ALL,
Now I’ve heard many preachers protest the use of the scriptures where Jesus cast out the money changers, to prove keeping God’s House Pure, AS incorrect, because they say, IT was Written because of the selling of animals to sacrifice for Passover, and carries no more meaning than that, so we need not worry, because Jesus died that we be made free of this… He IS our once and for ~ALL~ time sacrifice… AND That Part, IS True… BUT we still have an obedient, humble, clean, walk to prove… IF Jesus returned today and walked into the building where folks are gathered to have services, dedicated to HIS Father, what do you suppose He would throw out?
Think about IT, Consider IT in your deepest conscious, can you truthfully ~Proclaim~ loyalty to: Jesus, and HIS Father, in your actions carried on IN God’s House of Worship? IS everything, that you do and say exclusive to lifting up the *Ensign* of God’s Kingdom? Do you feel the slightest twinge of shame at, dishonoring the Ensign of God’s Kingdom, by parading the ensign of a nation into God’s House of Worship? IF you don’t, and you declare that you ~~ KNOW~~ Jesus, and use His Name, claiming to be a ~~Christian~~, then it is really a sad shame, because, Jesus did not give His life a ransom sacrifice to sit upon an earthy throne as a King, or Leader of a group of sheep that do not listen to His Voice, of a nation, one of many that belong ~~TO~: Satan the Devil..
(John 10:27)… Jesus SAID: “My sheep, hear My Voice, and I Know Them, &&& they ~~Follow~~ Me….. (They don’t go skipping off into the world, calling IT right, BUT they **Follow** Jesus….
(Luke 1:32-33) He shall be great, and shall be called the: Son of THE Highest: & The LORD God shall give unto Him the Throne of His father David… AND of His Kingdom there shall be ~~NO END~~… Well David’s kingdom was divided, under his son Solomon, why? Because of ~~Disobedience~ To God’s Instructions… IT was an earthly kingdom with a spiritual fore shadow of God’s Kingdom TO Come…. AS Jesus said…
(Luke 11:20)… “BUT *IF* I, (Jesus), with the ~Finger~ of God cast out devils, no doubt *The Kingdom OF God* **IS** come upon you…. SOOooo… Here Jesus was raised up as the: ENSIGN OF God’s Present, & Eternally standing Kingdom… not a kingdom or nation of this world in which Satan the adversary has been given rule for a short time, for Jesus SAID:
(John 12:31-32)… NOW!… IS the Judgment of the world: Now shall the prince of this world be cast out… AND *I, (Jesus)*, *IF* I Be lifted up from the earth, Will draw ~all~ men unto Me….. Do you lift Him up?…. Or do you put Him down and lift up the flag of a nation, or the custom of a pagan celebration, even in remembering of this ~~Time~~ When He was lifted up on the Cross and was ~Resurrected by the Father~~ TO Sit on the Heavenly Throne of God’s Kingdom at His Father’s Right Hand…. TO rule as King of Kings and Lord of Lords….
Does Jesus have *Power* over this nation? YES! Does He rule over this nation, or did God the Father give ALL the kingdoms of the earth over unto Satan the Devil?
(Revelations 13: 6-8)… AND power was given unto him over ~~ALL~~ kindred’s, tongues, and *nations*…..all them that dwell upon the earth… AND God’s Kingdom IS Not of this world, so.
Jesus proving Himself, IS Now risen and sits at the right hand of the Father IN His Kingdom… THE Same Kingdom which we are to ~~LOOK~~ to, flee TO: Declare the Good News of, to others, and Certainly TO: Lift up the *Ensign* That Represents THIS Kingdom as the sheep…. Of This Kingdom
(Isaiah 11:10)… IN THAT Day, there shall BE: A Root of Jesse, which shall Stand.. For an Ensign of the people, ~~TO IT~~ shall the Gentiles seek: & *His* rest shall be glorious…
This should sorta show us THAT The Ensign/ Flag/Banner of God’s Kingdom, IS NOT A Piece of cloth, Because a piece of fabric is not a *HE*…
