IN God We Trust!

Folks are always passing petitions TO: Keep THE Words, “IN GOD WE TRUST” on the coinage, currency, tags, pledges, ALL OF Which ARE: for Caesar & By Caesar, who rules in the world which IS fueled and fed BY the ~dragon~, that old serpent, Satan The Devil…
IT IS Written, but folks do not want to accept IT, because they want a fleshly showing of loyalty to both. A way of straddling the fence, proving ~neither~ hot nor cold toward either but embracing both, a position of wading in the mire of destruction while making a showing of standing for Christ…
Making a testimony of God.. Without changing their own ways, or walking as Jesus said that the children of God should…
(II Corinthians 6:17) Come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, touch ~NOT~ the unclean thing… Notice IT IS NOT Written that we are to try and clean up the unclean thing, by placing IN GOD WE TRUST on IT… BUT we are TO Be separate from IT…. IT IS What IT IS, IT Was IN The Beginning, and IT will be in the end when God’s Wrathful Destruction comes upon IT and all those attached to IT…
(Revelation 3:15) .. Jesus SAID: “ I ~KNOW~ thy ~works~, that thou art neither hot nor cold..
Some claim that this is a testimony of, for, & TO THE LORD… before the world and if used may draw those of a lost and dying world to come to ~Know~ God….
Others claim that this IS: Keeping God IN something that HE has never been IN… The ways of the world! When Jesus was tempted by the devil, Satan offered Him ALL the kingdoms of the earth… Which should tell us that Satan IS the ruler of the earthly kingdoms…
(Matthew 4:8-10) AND (Revelations 18: 3-4)… FOR *ALL* The Nations, have drunk of the wrath of her fornication… Come out of her, ~MY people~, that ye be ~NOT Partakers~ OF her sins and that ye receive NOT of her plagues… showing the fall of ALL the nations of the world…
IT IS NOT Written that we are to try and change the world by writing the NAME OF God all over the things that belong to Caesar, BUT we are to Publish the Good news OF God’s Kingdom to ALL that ALL may be saved out of a lost and dying world…(Matthew 24:1) .. NOT Joined to IT..
God’s Kingdom, as Jesus taught IS NOT OF THIS World….(John 18: 36) Satan was cast out of the heavens to rule where? (Luke 10: 18) (John 14:30)… Jesus Said: “The ~prince~ OF: ~this world~ cometh and hath nothing to do with Me…”
(Revelation 12:12) … “Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea, FOR ~The Devil~ *IS* come down unto you, ~having Great Wrath~ Because he ~Knoweth~ that he hath but a short time…”
(II Corinthians 4:4).. In whom ~the god~ of this world hath blinded their eyes, so that they believe NOT, lest the ~Light~ of the glorious Gospel of Christ Who IS the Image of God would shine unto them…
(Romans 12:2) … we are not to be conformed to the world, BUT transformed by the renewing of our minds, TO ~PROVE~ What IS THAT Good AND Acceptable AND PERFECT ~~WILL~~ OF God… not by the painting of our bodies, or placing the Name of God into or on the things that belong to and are OF the world….
SOOOOoooo… WHAT are we to do?
Well, WHAT DID God Tell HIS children TO Do WHEN HE GAVE them HIS Commandments and Statutes, as HE led them out of Egypt? Read Carefully
(Deuteronomy 6:1-9)…Fear the LORD AND KEEP ~ALL~ HIS Statutes & Commandments.. .. AND teach them diligently unto thy children, talk about them (ALL THE TIME) .. Bind them for a sign upon thy hand and as frontlets between thine eyes, write them upon the doorpost of thy house and upon thy gates…
Notice how this is written… God did not tell us to write them upon the post of Caesar’s Palace, nor on the goods of exchange, not in the world at all, BUT HE SAID, upon ~your~, making IT personal…
AND Notice ALSO that God did not say cut them into nor paint them upon your skin… BUT carry them for a sign upon your hand, HOLD Them, as IN Holding the Bible IN your hand, and as frontlets between your eyes, AS IN keeping your gaze upon them and not the ways of the world….
FOR IT IS ONE OF HIS Commands THAT we ARE NOT TO::
(Leviticus 19:28) .. Ye ~Shall NOT Make -ANY- Marks cuttings in your flesh for the dead, NOR Print any marks upon ~~~YOU~~~… I am THE LORD….
This IS pretty clearly written to mean that a tattoo IS a cutting, a printing of a mark upon the skin AND God Said, DO NOT DO IT!
Folks don’t seem to realize that God Exacts our ~~obedience~~ TO HIS Words, HIS Commands.. And many try to change What IS Written to suit themselves, and claim that by tattooing their skin with message’s that attest to God’s Kingdom or HIS Love, or our faith in God, IS our testimony of God… Yes IT IS our testimony, BUT NOT OF God, Rather OF: our ~Rebellion~, of our rebelliousness toward HIS Statutes… Because God said, thou shalt ~NOT~ and we try to excuse our doing as being favorable toward God, when in Fact IT IS OF Satan… Since he IS the adversary of our Lord Jesus Christ…
SO It doesn’t matter what we have printed on our skin, whether IT BE: “IN GOD WE TRUST” OR I LOVE JESUS”, “The Cross”, or a fleshly tribute to our loved one that God saw fit to take from this earth, IT IS IN Rebellion of God’s Command and thus IT IS NOT IN Accordance with God’s Way… AS IT IS Written…..
There are those that claim Jesus guides our conscious and won’t let us do anything that IS displeasing to His Father, AND Jesus made the path through this life that we are to follow… Where were His ~tattoos~? What did Jesus tell us to do? Jesus SAID:
(John 4:24) … “God IS A Spirit: AND they that ~Worship~ HIM MUST Worship HIM IN Spirit AND IN TRUTH…”
Our testimony of our ~Faith~, of God’s Love, can’t be written on or painted into our flesh, these fleshly bodies die, rot away go back to the dust from which they came… (Ecclesiastes 12:7)
But our faith must be seen in our spirit, show forth in our walk, be proven by our obedience, testified of by our works in the examples that we set before mankind…
(James 2:17-18) .. Faith, IF IT Hath NOT Works IS Dead… being alone.. Shew me thy faith without works, and I Will show thee my ~Faith~ BY my Works…
IT truly isn’t a show of ones faith to prove the works of disobedience to God’s Commanded Word… BUT Rather IT Testifies of ones ~faith~ BY proving *Obedient* TO: God’s Command, AS IT IS Written… This IS A Work of Faith, walking according to God’s Way, Following the path of righteousness that HIS Son, Jesus Christ laid down for us to follow… NOT Trying to blaze ~our own trail~ through this life with our new inventions of mankind’s old customs….
Sunday School, AND Vacation Bible School Teachers, that pass out stick on tattoos, or do face paintings on the little ones are in Fact promoting an act that the Bible Condemns, thus offering the ways of the world to the little children that they are responsible for teaching God’s Word, HIS Commandments, HIS Statutes IN Truth & Honesty…. These little ones trust us, should we not prove ourselves worthy of that trust?
Please read these things in The Bible God’s Book of ALL Instruction for yourself, Before jumping to the conclusion that it is not true, because IT IS Written TO BE Judgmental of others… Remember IF we would judge ourselves? … (I Corinthians 28: & 31) .. Let a man examine himself … and *IF* we would judge ourselves we would not be judged… BY What guideline are we to judge ourselves? God Gave US A Guide, When HE HAD Written and ~Preserved~ The Book, THE Bible, WE must learn to use IT NOW… For ~ALL~ Decisions, not take another person’s word for whether something IS Right or Wrong…
