What Independence Should We Celebrate?

This subject will offend many,  BUT, many were offended by the words that Jesus Spoke, and are still offended by AS IT IS Written:  (Matthew  15: 12-13).. the disciples informed JEsus that the Pharisees were ~Offended~ after they heard His saying.. BUT Jesus Said: "Let them alone they be blind leaders of the blind"..  This IS NOT to judge, hurt or bring harm to anyone, nor to bring down the rulership of the nations of this world,  THIS IS FOR The Judgment Belonging TO GOD ONLY..  my part IS: simply  to bring the Message OF God's Kingdom, AS IT IS Written.  May God bless each reader and guide us all into HIS Will & Way in ALL Things... BY The Holy Spirit...
Today in many Church Services a ~Day~ of Independence will be celebrated, by raising the flag of this nation, singing songs of praise to it, and honoring “The Freedom” That *IT* has given to mankind, BY: The traditions of men…
BUT! Think about IT! What IS really being done?
Men, women, children, standing before the LORD,  in The House set aside FOR: The Purpose OF prayer, giving of ~Thanks~ TO our Heavenly Father, in the Name of And Through HIS Son, Jesus Christ… (Psalm 100) (Mark 11:17) (Isaiah 56:7) (II Kings 20:5)  BUT WHEN
Instead of doing this, we are giving thanks to our fleshly ancestors, a piece pf cloth mounted on a pole, with the image of a golden eagle sitting atop… This IS Very Much Akin TO and In The Same category AS: The many, many abominations that were committed before the LORD, by the kings that led HIS children the Israelites, AS Recorded in THE Old Testament… which many want to ignore because IT IS A New Day and Time…. BUT, they fail to take into consideration THAT: IT IS: THE SAME God… HE IS Unchanging IN What HE Exacts of HIS children…. (Malachi 3:6) (Proverbs 14:21)
Another thought TO Seriously consider IS: Exactly what ~Independence~ DO we celebrate? ..
Yes, our ancestors were searching for ~freedom~ from unjust and heavy taxation… A better future for themselves and their families,… looking for a better fleshly life… and this they may have found, temporarily… BUT! Did they in the long run of things not just jump out of the frying pan into the fire… ?
Ride down the streets and look at the homeless, the oppressed, those with families that are being tossed out of their homes they worked for because they have lost their jobs, to foreign countries… Has charity began AT home here? The people are being taxed so that the CEO’S of big corporations, that the government IS Giving huge amounts of bailout monies to, can still receive their million dollar bonus’s still. Freedom?
Freedom TO: pay more taxes so that the: “rich can get richer & the poor can get poorer”… IS IT Any different in any other country? NO!
SOOOOooo… we Should Be able TO ~~SEE~~ that AS IT IS Written ~~ALL~~ nations are under God, &&& this IS NOT TO SAY, “Under HIS Rule” BUT: Under *HIS* Judgment… (Revelations 18:3) … “ALL Nations ~~HAVE~~ Drunk OF the wine of The ~Wrath~ OF her fornication…”
(Deuteronomy 14:2) …The LORD hath chosen thee TO BE A Peculiar people unto HIMSELF, ~~Above~~ *ALL* The nations that are upon the earth…
(Titus 2:14) .. Who gave Himself for us, that He Might ~Redeem~ us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself ~~A peculiar people~~ zealous of ~~GOOD works~~ …
Because THERE IS ONLY ONE Nation Under HIS Rule, and THAT IS: *HIS Kingdom*, THAT HIS Son came to earth preaching and teaching OF… THAT we who are HIS Followers should focus our attention on and look to for ~our~ *Freedom*…. *FREEDOM* from a world led by Satan the devil who has been cast out of the heavens and down to the earth, to rule but for a short time, and knowing this, he, the serpent, the dragon, the devil, Lucifer, and his demons goes about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour…. (I Peter 5:8)
What did Satan offer Jesus *IF* He would bow down and do one simple act of worship before him? … “ALL” The kingdoms of the world,…(Luke 4:5-8).. he did not offer him all but one that already belonged to God did he?
AND he IS devouring many, BECAUSE, the Churches are failing TO Teach: AS IT IS Written OF The Adversary, whom we are at war with, for fear of hurting fleshly feelings… We can’t teach so strongly because IT will not be popular… with the people loyal to a worldly nation, embracing all IT’S customs…
By what God was Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego delivered, when they did not bow before the king, embrace their occasions, as we do today before the government of this nation?
ASK yourself this, read the Scripture, realize that this was just a simple act, no more than a loyal salute to a flag, hand over the heart, and the singing of a song of praise to the king of a country… Was IT any different than the act that will be carried out IN the Houses set aside for the Worship of the God that saved them for refusing TO Compromise their faithful loyalty?
(Daniel 3:15-25 & )…
(3:28)… WHO? hath sent HIS Angel, & delivered HIS servants that ~Trusted~ IN *HIM*, and have changed the kings word, and yielded their bodies, that they might ~NOT~ SERVE , NOR Worship any god, EXCEPT their own God…
BACK UP And take another look into the mirror of this fleshly life and the way that folks carry on over IT, and see where IT Shows, Reflects, Proves THAT our Loyalties lie….
Today, many folks will say “IF” IT Had not been for our ancestors, the bravery that they showed in coming here to start a new life we would not be here now…
I stand to say, “IF IT HAD NOT BEEN FOR: “our Father, Who ART IN Heaven, Hallowed BE THY NAME, THY Kingdom COME, THY Will BE DONE, ON Earth AS IT IS IN Heaven.. we would be lost and dying in every nation, not called out of them, today, in what ever country, or lands that, God, our MAKER Saw Fit TO, plant our feet on, AND I give my thanks TO God The Father, IN the Name of HIS Son, Jesus Christ, and By The Holy Spirit!”
AND The “Ensign” (Flag) THAT I lift up today IS: Jesus Christ, our Savior, The Way, The Truth, The Light…
