Men Deny God

This passage of ~Scripture~ came to mind as I listened to a discussion last night on the subject OF: Does God Really Exist? One making the comment that the belief in A Higher Power in the Heavens has ~NO~ place in the leadership of this nation… ?
Men will be lovers of their ~own selves~ rather than God…. (II Timothy 3:1-5) … This warning of the last days… (1) THIS ~KNOW~ also, that in the last days perilous times shall come, (2) FOR men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, ~unholy~… (5) .. Having A form of ~godliness, BUT *Denying* THE POWER thereof: From such turn away…
(II Timothy 4:4).. AND they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables….
Listening to a panel discussion, of highly educated people, last night gave me chills to realize just how close the ~END~ this ~Day~ really IS… These two men and one woman, bashed God in a way that one can only see the chaos that IS about to fall upon this, ~exalted and highly praised nation~… I couldn’t help but wonder at their, “Vast Knowledge IN Certainty” That A Higher Power Does NOT Exist, while bashing the humble ones that ~Believe~ That A Higher Power INDEED Does Exist… and have actually seen the miracles that THIS Power, GOD, can and does perform…
You, KNOW, ~ALL~ my life, and History teaches us TO praise this nation, carry Pride in our hearts for the flag, even people that call themselves ~~followers~~ of Christ, will chew you up and spit you out *IF* you warn them against bringing the flag into the Houses where they are gathered to ~Worship THE LORD~ warning that this IS An Abomination before HIS Eyes, standing in the place that we, the people call Holy….
This just makes me realize even more that The Written Word of God is not being read, studied, or cared about either, because there is explicit warning about: *Pride*.
(Psalm 10: 2 - 4)… The ~wicked~ in his *Pride* doth persecute the poor… for the wicked boasteth of ~~his~~ heart’s , desire and blesseth the covetous which THE LORD, Abhorreth. God IS NOT in ALL his thoughts….. (covetous means a desire to have what someone else has.)
(Proverbs 16:18).. Pride goeth before destruction..
(( John 2:16)…~~ALL~~ that IS In The world, the lust of the flesh, and eyes, and the *Pride* of **Life**, IS Not of THE Father, but is of the world…. Soooo when we are singing happy birthday to anyone in God’s House of Worship, we are building up their ~~Pride~~ in this life, which IS of this world… Just saying…
This panel had conducted a survey of young people, asking them the serious question, “Do you really believe that God exist?” Something like 70/80% of them answered, “NO!”… They confessed to attending Church, claiming the Name of Jesus, but said that they did this because *IT* IS Just *The Thing that people do… * Just like the passing fad of not so long ago where every where you looked young folks was wearing the “WWJD” bracelets, that are rarely found today… This form of worship or sharing Christ with others was just another fad of the word and so has passed on… They admitted to attending Church because IT IS a place to gather with family and friends and have fun…. AND THIS I CAN BELIEVE…
When you see Bible Schools and Sunday Schools with the flag draped around the shoulders of a child you can know that this is the main intent of the leaders to ~Praise~ a Nation rather than Teach The children THE Gospel which effects their eternal life, SO naturally when that are young adults, what do they believe?.. Good Time Charlie’s giving a ride through the world in the House of THE LORD….
Because so many Churches have gone from conducting services where people gather to Worship God IN Spirit and Truth together, ~TO ~ Gathering to worship each other, IT IS ALL About people, families, cliques, celebrating the holidays, the traditionally appointed days of remembrance by and of the world: ie “Flag Day”; Mother, Father, & Grandparents Day; Independence Day, Memorial Day, Halloween disguised as Fall Harvest, Event The Remembrance of The ~Birth of Christ~ here on this earth, and ~The Crucifixion~ can’t be remembered in the Sanctuaries without mixing the pagan customs and traditions in with IT…
IT IS The Sign of the Times that Jesus ~Foretold~ we should see, so watch for it.. In:
(Luke 21:22) For ~These Be The Days of vengeance~ that ~ALL~ things which are written may be fulfilled… (25).. AND There shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars, and the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; and the sea and the waves roaring….
Men even from the pulpits are full of advice on how to ~~FIX~~ things that this ~Great Nation May live on and we in it, BUT folks would be wise to look to the coming of the LORD, Because This WILL Come to Pass just as Jesus said IT Would Be, and ~ALL The nations shall fail.. AND Folks would do well to remember, That Jesus DID NOT Command, “ya’ll get together and devise a plan to fix all the problems of the nations and all will be well, BUT Rather, Jesus Commanded: That we go forth and ~~TEACH~~ ALL the nations to observe all the things whatsoever I (Jesus) have commanded, baptizing them in the Name of: The Father, and OF The Son, and OF the Holy Ghost… (Matthew, 28:19-20)… Neither did He teach us that we should mix and mingle the customs of the nations in with our worship of THE Father in Heaven, BUT He Warned:
(I Corinthians 6:17) “Come out from among them and BE ye a Separate people,” saith The Lord..
Many years ago I listened to a news caster interviewing a Rabbi of a sect in New York, who said that his congregation had moved on, realizing that the promise of God to send HIS Son to redeem them, was not real and so they now gather to celebrate each other.. Recognizing and celebrating each others, birthdays, anniversaries, accomplishments in their lives… BECAUSE; this made them feel better than worshiping an unseen being…
AND IT APPEARS, that this attitude of belief has been greatly accomplished in the Churches that call themselves Believers of God through Christ HIS Only Begotten Son….
Seeing IT first hand in the Church that we attended we just stopped… Every Sunday became a celebration of something of the world of flesh, instead of THE Creator… Birthdays, every Sunday, first up on the agenda… Then songs of praise the nation on certain days, parades of people who had accomplished great things in and of the world… Give them round after round of applause, make them feel good for their fleshly accomplishments, while we park God in the corral out back to await HIS Time for us to lift HIS Name IN Praise… IT GOT SO I left every meeting disappointed with the lack of respect that the, opening leader, preacher, and deacons showed for THE LORD, and their guidance in the material things of in/to this world…
For example ~~PLEASE~~ read the accounts of God’s Son Jesus Christ in The Holy Inspired Written Word, and ~Count~ how many of His Services He opened with, “lets salute the flag of this great nation, show our ~Pride~ in its power, or all who have birthdays come stand before us and let us all sing to the honorees of this day of fleshly birth….. COUNT THEM PLEASE, and then make you decision to turn your head away from this warning only *IF* there IS ONE… Otherwise IT Might be of beneficial interest to you and to all your family to pay attention to the ~Writing On The Wall, the prophesies that Jesus Gave us to Watch Out For~~, and wake up to the days that are upon us…
This same panel also stated and agreed that the president, the man that is elected by the people should have *NO* religious conviction, he should hold *NO* belief in a higher power than himself, in order to be a good and fair ruler in this great nation….. WELL, this should be no big surprise, because the people of this nation have been being conditioned throughout the years to look to the flag, raise IT in glory, give IT the praise for our freedom, and the Church of Christ followers, follow right along with this teaching… NOT being able to see the fire for the smoke of contradiction, that they are laying down… HOW MANY TIMES IS IT WRITTEN, “Thou shalt have no other God before ME!”… (Exodus 20:3) yet folks ignore this and praise everything worldly…
(Leviticus 20:3).. AND I (THE LORD God) Will set MY FACE that man and have him cut OFF From among his people; because he hath given his seed to Mo-lech, to defile MY Sanctuary, AND ~Profane~ MY Holy NAME…. Pretty strong words, and I find nowhere that we can hid behind Jesus and do the things that God forbade HIS people to do before Jesus came to pay the sin debt…
(John 5:42-44)… Jesus Said: “I Know you, that ye have not the ~Love~ of God in you. I am come in My Fathers Name, and ye receive Me not: *IF* another come IN his own name, him ye will receive… How can ye believe, which receiveth honor on of another, and seek not the honor that cometh from God ~~Only~~?”
(II Chronicles 13:7-10).. Carries a good lesson… read IT…
(Acts 5:29)… Peter preached, “we ought to ~Obey~ God rather than men.”
(Hebrews 12:25) …. See that ye ~Refuse~ not him that speaketh. FOR *IF* they escaped NOT who refused hi, that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, *IF* we turn away from HIM That Speaketh FROM Heaven… (28b) .. Whereby we may ~Serve~ God with *Reverence and Godly Fear: (29) FOR God IS A Consuming Fire!
(Hebrews 11:25) ..Choosing rather to ~Suffer~ affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season…
What folks can’t seem to swallow IS, that their pleasures in this world will be but for a short time. Eternity IS forever… Which would you choose.. Pleasure now for a short while in an anti-Christ state, and eternal damnation… OR a faithful obedient walk with Christ and eternity in heaven… God gives us that choice… HE does not make us serve HIM *IF* out hearts, thoughts, and mind remains a part of the world of Satan, reserved unto fiery destruction……
SO *IF* we are the ones that sit on the pews because that IS The thing to do, but in our thoughts God does not exist, then we are sitting on a keg of dynamite, and the fuse is burning shorter, by the minute……
