Ridiculous and frivolous lack of vision, that's one way to describe a nation which is told for over twenty years that production based life will have to become information based life, and that the jobs of making things will have to become the jobs of telling others and other nations how to make things. Some listened, most, did not, today we are reaping that stupidity on behalf of our bloated and irresponsible Chiefs. Folks want to argue about that, but you go back twenty five years and read what the best in the field of futurism and statistics, the science of predicting what is coming, based on the present truth, read what they said, and they said it with perfect clarity and we are reaping it today. What will we reap next as we blissfully fail to wake up? How long are evangelical Christian's going to remain unaware of the truths of the reality of scripture that doesn't talk about warfare without redemption, existence without faith, and leadership which has no vision? Why do I say evangelical Christian's? Because of the many different forms of Christianity on earth, the evangelical Christian's are the ones most apt to miss it in their zeal to sell the redemption of people from hell, rather than, to Jesus. They fall in love with fire insurance type of relating to people, not realizing that Christ built relationships, Christ built for time, and God, God builds an empire which is His, we are but travelers in it, and the vision we need to pass to those who don't know God is of God, not hell- we're missing it by a country mile while we try to scare the hell out of people who believe they are living in hell, and they aren't far from the truth given what their leadership has provided for them. The Bible can be debated, but salvation isn't up for debate, it comes at a single decision which comes from an invitation by the Holy Spirit of God, don't sell fire insurance to scare the hell out of people, it won't work, instead, try following Jesus through His leadership about giving, sacrificing, and the joy of purity in the love of God, and guess what will happen to those around you? You see one truth which this devotional will always stand for is what Jesus said, love, love is the power which overcomes all evil- and God, His Father, is love.
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca**, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
** Raca is a term translated from the Aramaic as 1) empty, i.e. a senseless, empty headed man
2) a term of reproach used among the Jews in the time of Christ
Per Signum Crucsis (By The Sign of the Cross) De Inimicsis Nostre (From our Enemies) Libera Nos, Deus Noster (Deliver us, our God) In Nomine Patris (In the name of the Father) Et Filii (and of the Son) Et Spiritus SAncti (and of the Holy Spirit) Amen
