INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!

Good morning American how are you? Happy independence day!!! God bless America! Oh yes, there is a God, and your not Him. Is that (Him) a sexist remark? Not at all, the English language (you know, the language that most of us were taught and actually learned in school when it wasn't Being re-designed my people that didn't care so much) uses the masculine pronoun as a gender neutral when referring to a person if the gender is not specific. You see, God is NOT male nor female. He is also not black, white, red, yellow, green, pink, blue, or any other color (not to leave any out). God is spirit; actually He is THE Spirit, THE HOLY SPIRIT. Guess what? Even if you don't want to believe in Him (you have that right in American because people, many people, died for that right - um, today celebrates that victory) you will. The question is, WHEN you believe in Him, will it be too late? You see, He IS in fact a holy God, but also a righteous God. Because of His total justice He CANNOT go against His own words; for the wages of sin is death. Well, we are souls (guess you might have thought you were a body), yes souls, and we HAVE bodies. Our body will die, but THAT is NOT the death God was talking about; He was talking about an eternal separation from Him. He also said that ALL have sinned, and fall short of His Glory. That means we all (yes even me ALL) have failed and can't be allowed into God's Presence. Well, I guess THAT is THAT! Might as well live like the devil! NO! He, God (remember God? He's the One I've been talking about) made a way; actually He made THE WAY! Well, believe it or not (you will) Jesus Christ IS The Way. Don't you see, He, Jesus, was sent (more accurately God made Himself into a human form in order to relay to us a message in a way we could understand) to pay the price for sin, for all those who would believe. THIS is what the Forth of July, INDEPENDENCE DAY (remember Independence Day? That's what this post is about), means to our founding fathers - freedom to worship our Lord Jesus Christ without the government telling us how. Pick up a historic history book (that means one written before history was edited so drastically) and you will find the truth of history; pick up a historic Bible (that would be one that aligns with the Dead Sea scrolls) and you will find THE TRUTH about God. DO NOT LET ANYONE DECEIVE YOU ANY LONGER! You have the tools to find out the truth for yourself! Seek and you will find! Seek for truth, that is what you will find, seek for a way to prove you are right in your deception, that is what you will find. DON'T let others decide your future, take charge and bend your future into something you will never regret. Independence: NOT DEPENDING ON OTHERS. It depends on YOU taking control of you own future, and not let anyone deceive you; not even yourself.

How Far back can you trace YOUR family tree?

Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Janna, the son of Joseph, the son of Mattathiah, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Esli, the son of Naggai, the son of Maath, the son of Mattathiah, the son of Semei, the son of Joseph, the son of Judah, the son of Joannas, the son of Rhesa, the son of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, the son of Neri, the son of Melchi, the son of Addi, the son of Cosam, the son of Elmodam, the son of Er, the son of Jose, the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Simeon, the son of Judah, the son of Joseph, the son of Jonan, the son of Eliakim, the son of Melea, the son of Menan, the son of Mattathah, the son of Nathan, the son of David, the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon, the son of Amminadab, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah, the son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of Nahor, the son of Serug, the son of Reu, the son of Peleg, the son of Eber, the son of Shelah, the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech, the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalalel, the son of Cainan, the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God. (Luke 3:23-38 NKJV)

Convicted, not Condemned.

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. (Romans 8:1, 2 NKJV)

This means that those who have accepted Christ will not be separated from Him so long as they live their lives according to Way of Christ. Before Christ or without Christ we only have the Law to live by and violation of the law in any way condemns us to separation from Christ. In Christ we have Grace and are allowed to turn to Him in "repentance" (say I'm sorry to Christ) so that the innocence of Christ might be restored to us. HE is INNOCENT thus when He died on our behalf, He took on himself the condemnation that was due us, setting us free; and restoring the innocence we were created with in The Garden; we are guilty of sin; we are sinners; we all deserve death; He has taken our place (He was executed on our behalf).

He alone is worthy, He alone is Lord.

Praise God that we now, in Christ, have a Way whereby we can spend all eternity with our Awesome Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Pregnant With Jesus

Even as Mary (the mother of Christ) was filled with the Holy Spirit, became pregnant with The Word (Jesus Christ), labored to give birth to The Word and The Word then spread around the Earth, so must it be with each of us to whom life has been granted, if we wish to be partakers of that life with The Word for all eternity.

Invite and allow the Holy Spirit of God to so impregnate you with The Word of God that you will grow in the knowledge of Who He is and thus spread that knowledge around your world of influence to such an extent that not only you , but your entire world is changed.

May I become less that He may become more.

Wow! I can't believe the foolish dribble people will come up with just so they can explain away a Holy God...

Well, according to a video I just watched, the Israelite had an alien-created Manna Machine called, "The Ancient of Days" provide food for them while they wandered in the desert for 40 years. It seems that it was powered by a nuclear device that was carried in the Ark of the Covenant (which is why people died when they touched it). Question: why didn't these ever-so-helpful aliens give them directions to their vacation destination since it was only 10 days journey away? HOW FOOLISH SCIENTISTS MUST THINK PEOPLE ARE!!! It is 10 times harder to believe their rot than to just accept that God is God. I am astounded!

Just think...

When God created us He knew what was going to be required of Him to save us from sin, yet, His love was that great, that He made us regardless of the cost. Have you counted the cost of loving Him? Have you decided that it is too much? Have you considered the cost of NOT loving Him? "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:22-23. Sin: a violation of the known will of God. Penalty: eternal separation from the One that loves us more than any other, and the Only One worthy of our love.

When Does Human Life Begin?

These are FACTS. Do not bother me with arguments. Nothing changes FACT.

If life was discovered on another planet there are criteria we would refer to conclusively determine if the claim was accurate. How do scientists identify life?

A scientific textbook called “Basics of Biology” gives five characteristics of living things; these five criteria are found in all modern elementary scientific textbooks:

All living things... are highly organized, have an ability to acquire materials and energy, have an ability to respond to their environment, have an ability to reproduce, and have an ability to adapt.

According to this life begins at fertilization, when a sperm unites with an egg. At this point all five things above are true. Non-living things do not do these things. Even before the mother is aware that she is pregnant, a distinct, unique life has begun his or her existence inside her.

That life is human. A human being is a member of the species homo sapiens. Human beings are products of conception, which is when a human male sperm unites with a human female egg.
