The people who were responsible for helping to create and establish a viable Judea-Christian heritage; should make for a great full people. From shinning shore to shinning shore of these United States. A heritage worth defending because its destruction is sought and is taking place on many fronts. And should it be destroyed, it will make for a very different America. With the negatives far outweighing the positives.

The creators of our Judea-Christian system of government were not perfect by any means. The first eight presidents were slave owners. There just isn’t any way possible to justify a claim for another person, as ones personal property.

The country used force to take what did not belong to them. The lands belonged to the Indians, and they did so by calling the indigenous population heathens and savages. From which they gave themselves permission to slaughter a people to near extinction.

And the citing of American wrongs could go on, but the point being this, they like us, happen to be an imperfect people.

Yet from such imperfections a people built a nation under God, never before seen, and they did so by creating a culture of morals and ethics with a scriptural foundation. We celebrate their endeavors as our Judea-Christian heritage. Highlighted through the Preamble to our Constitution and the Constitution it self. A gift from God because humans are not inclined to allow such freedoms for self governance.

Over the decades that heritage has felt the hammer of destruction chipping away at its resoluteness. And with every crack from that hammer results yet another piece of that heritage falling to dust. Resulting with the nation sinking into quick sands of the Abyss allowing for no escape. With its productivity, currency, power and influence diminishing national and around the world. And it has nothing to do with the nations current recession because it goes way beyond its trivialities. But it does have a periphery association from God. Unseen pressure from the unknown perspective of human understanding. Designed to encourage change or collapse. God will not this nations godless trend to blaspheme him. He will chastise the people and the nation severely, if the change of repentance is not forth coming. It’s recorded in the scriptures, “Be not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that shall they also reap,” Galatians 6:7.

And how might the mocking of God produce its harvest? Perhaps he will allow our Muslim neighbors to pick up the task of chastisement for him. What more appropriate way to punish, a people, and a nation, who have turned their backs on what made them great and successful, their Judea-Christian heritage.

You have heard the adage, God works in mysterious ways. Well maybe his mysteriousness is playing out before us right now. What better way than to neutralize a God centered ideology with the godless ideology of Islam. After all, God gives no credibility to Islam. Other than to say that its founder Ishmael (Genesis 16:11-12) would be a wild one. Who would be against everyone, and everyone against him. A people who would multiply beyond the counting of the stars (Genesis 16:10)  and be everywhere. And true to the scriptures, Islam is ruthless with wildness. Clearly demonstrated as they kill one another all around the world. But manage to come together to work for the destruction of Israel and the United States.

The West needs, and in particular the United States needs renewed leadership. People who govern from our history and heritage. With a church that has been revitalized, but separate from the state  and willing to apply whatever pressure is necessary.

The church needs to get its act together. If the west, is to defeat this Islamic challenge. And they have challenged us, by bringing their war here to America, and building military fortresses (mosques on our sacred soil) with government approval.

It’s not Christ who has failed, but those of us, who name him Lord and Savior. Who have failed to pick up his cross. A Christ measurement suggesting that we have failed to advance his cause. Observed by looking at national attitudes about our Christ and his edicts. Resulting in the Christian church becoming an institution of mockery, and Christians, a people to be scoffed at, and a source of ridicule.

It’s time to end all of that by returning to our Judea-Christian heritage. Picking up his cross, and moving forward to accomplish all that is on the Christ agenda which is found in our scriptures. Ranging from such meaningful function of government and how it impacts our lives. And, stepping outside of government to deal with this Islamic menace.

Like you and me, God also had to show some resiliency to his character in order to meet an unprecedented challenge. His kingdom was under attack. In the end the culprit and his associates were booted out of the realm of the Holiest of the Holy, our creator and defender. Read about it in Revelation 12:7-9. With verse nine being the embodiment of our earthly troubles. Which reads, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

How powerful is Satan? From Isaiah 14:15-16, we discover these facts. There will come a time when Lucifer, son of the morning, who weakened the nations, (verse 12). Who will be dispatched to the pits of hell (verse 15). But in the mean time, he is characterized as the one, who made the earth tremble, who did shakes kingdoms (governments) verse 16.

And who is preoccupied on earth, hoping, no doubt to shake to there death God’s chosen embodied in the nations of Israel and the United States. But God as our defender has ordained, despite our combined sins. Has promised, “For Zions (Israel) sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s (capital city) sake, I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness and her salvation as a lamp burns,” Isaiah 62:1.

Stand with Israel because that is the way for personal and national survival! It’s recorded in the book that so many despise which is the root of America’s national and falling stature globally. Comes these words from the Holy One of Israel and the United States which we refer to as our Judea-Christian heritage. An eternal bond between two inseparable people. And, “I will bless them that bless you, and curse them that curse you; and in you (Israel) shall all families of the earth be blessed,” Genesis 12:3

Our people, and its government struggle to exhaustion to find fixes for our combined struggles. Our personal dilemma’s are as tiring as are national and international ones. When we have the reason, and purpose for what ails us as individuals, and a nation just spelled out and with the solution. With one word that epitomizes the cure. Found in Isaiah 62:1, which is the word ’salvation,’ then what plagued us before God, will unite us with God. And the salvation of our lamp will burn again as a bright light. Meaning two things, first a personal relationship with Jesus Christ or God (John 10:30). Accomplished by confessing ones sins and acknowledging the process of John 3:16-18. It will produce the newness of life found in 2 Corinthians 5:17. And then a return to honor our Judea-Christian heritage, as individuals and a nation starting with Genesis 12:3.

It has been said that he who laughs last laughs the loudest. It’s God, who will laugh the loudest. Because of a declaration from God, as to the decadence of a peoples history. Determined to silence God, Psalms 2:1-2. With that decadency having a very intended focus Because of a bond designed by God uniting Jew and Gentile. In the United States, we refer to that bond as our Judea-Christian heritage. A heritage that sweep America to the forefront of global envy. In every aspect of individual and national existence. And in due time, the offspring of the aging Jewish patriarch Abraham gave way to their upstarts in America because we Americans have a direct traceable linage back to Abraham. Many in the United States and Israel can’t explain it but they can sense it. Causing an inseparable union that will hold despite the forces determined to eliminate that bond.

And there is no greater force of evil determine to destroy that union than Islam. Greatly helped along by the blinded and then ignorant United States government. There is no hope for America, apart from the revitalized Body of Christ, who constitute his sacred church. To come together for the single purpose to eradicate this demonic evil called Islam. Closing down there military fortresses referred to as mosques. Think 9/11, Fort Hood, Flight 253 and Lady al-Qaeda. From those fortresses they emerged to attack us. On sacred, United States soil, given to us by God Almighty through Jacob to be a great instrument for his righteousness. If you don’t know that history, learn it, it’s vital! While at the same time sending those jihadists to their stinking hell holes that they emerged from.

And having said that the majority laugh, scoff and mock at such statements of a bonding between two peoples. But nevertheless they also sense such a bond, and have determined the following. “Let us break their bands (bonds) asunder and cast their cords (union) from us,” Psalms 2:1. Here is why our bonds shall never be broken. Because it is said, he who laughs last will laugh the loudest, playing out like this. “He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord (Jesus Christ) shall have them in derision,” Psalms 2:4. In due time, it will unfold like this, “Then he shall speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his great displeasure,” Psalms 2:5. Make no mistake, it is playing out on our national stage right now. As America tumbles from greatness to mediocrity, and then to oblivion of being forgotten by God. If it can’t be seen emerging, there must be a great degree of blindness. Everything about America has taken a sour swing south. And with that a holy God becomes more angry. Because America is putting his first love Israel, in serious jeopardy.

Israel shares equal blame because she has denied Jesus Christ as her personal and national Messiah. Therefore, the future of these two nations will be in for some very unsettling times. Doubt it, just keep watching world events.

Nevertheless Jerusalem, the capital city of Israel will always be returned to its rightful owner. For we have these promises, “Yet have I set my king (Jesus) upon my holy hill of Zion (Jerusalem). I will declare the decree:The LORD hath said unto me, (Jesus) you are my son; this day have I begotten you,” Psalms 2:7. A prophetic announcement of the eternal Judea-Christian kingdom with Jesus as its king from Zion or Jerusalem.

It is said by God to Jesus and accepted by Jesus. “Ask of me, and I shall give the the heathen (nations) for your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession. You will  break them with a rod of iron; you shall dash them in pieces like a potters vessel, Psalms 2:9.

There is an exhausting time ahead for the inhabitants of this earth. It’s called the terrible day of the Lord. Until that day, or as long as God allows. He begs us to make known the following to all the worlds power brokers. And most particularly his beloved people, who make up his Judea-Christian community which reaches beyond Israel and the United States. “Be wise now, therefore, O you kings; be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice trembling. Kiss the Son lest he be angry, (meaning worship in humility) and you perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled just a little. (meaning at this stage in humanities history it wouldn’t take much to usher in that terrible day of the Lord) (This has always been God’s promise to individuals and nations) ( a promise America had enjoyed for so very long, but thought it more prudent to leave it behind) which is: Blessed are all they who put their trust in him,” Psalms 2:10-12.

Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you; not as the world gives, give I unto you, let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid,” John 14:27. One way to avoid such conditions and experience his peace is to know his prophecies. Engage this clergyman in a prophetic journey on topics of your choice.

President George Washington’s America has changed. In 1783, while in Ireland, the President describe the goodness of America. “The bosom of America is open to receive not only the Opulent and respectable Stranger, but the oppressed and prosecuted of all Nations and Religions; whom we shall welcome to a participation of all our rights and privileges, if by decency and propriety of conduct they appear to merit the enjoyment.”

Muslims by their lack of decency and propriety of conduct do not merit the enjoyment of American goodness. Because President Washington was referring to our culture, ethics and biblical morals, binding us together through our Judea-Christian heritage. Muslims to do not value our culture, ethics or our biblical morals. So perfectly crafted by God, to bring Jew, and Gentile together in an inseparable bond.

Instead Muslims are committed to remake America in the image of their culture, and ethics, as crafted from their Koranic laws. All that is Islamic is foreign, as to what represents our Judea-Christian heritage, and what is American. For over two hundred years, people have been coming to America, disagreeing  with our Judea-Christian heritage. But they assimilated themselves into our culture. While honoring their own ethnic traditions, without demanding the abolishing of the nations Judea-Christian heritage, as do Muslims.

With this fixed mind set among Muslims to destroy everything non-Muslim, there is no way the two cultures can abide together in harmony. Which means, our different worlds will collide in disaster. Then the call must be, America, get rid of Muslims within our communities, before they get rid of us!!!

With each day that passes and more Muslims move into our communities; with the construction of yet, another Mosque. The harder it will be to eradicate the nation of this abominable evil. SHOCKING NEWS, in the Tampa Bay community of Florida, there are 18 Mosques. Along with two propaganda machines that give cover for Islamic Jihadists, holy warriors, when they get caught. What will happen, when one or more of those Imam’s orders one or more of their followers to strike?

Time to fear and time to act. How many new Mosques are springing up in your community, where you live, along with their Islamic propaganda machines. With each new Mosque, what we value as non-Muslims is put at risk.

Some would have you think that American greatness was the result of American ingenuity. Such thinking is foolishness. America’s past greatness was shape by her awareness of the following. “He gives power to the faint; and to those who have no might he increases strength. Even the youths shall faint; and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not be faint,” Isaiah 40:29-31. That has always been America’s strength. America has drifted far from her dependence upon her creator. Secularism, multiculturalism with its peripheral trimmings of greed, pride and selfishness. Which has resulted in the sweeping America her dependence upon God under the carpet. America is in need of a spiritual revival, if she is to regain her place of prominence in the world community. And such prominence will be needed, if America is to defeat the forces of Islamic evil. Because Islam was born from evil, has survived by being evil, and will never rest until evil has prevailed.

Our world is slowly being given a new face, It’s Islamic! Only a revitalized church can send this Islamic movement in retreat. Because the world is on a collision course. Being steered by forces outside of individual or government control. Two forces that are propelling themselves with greater and greater velocity towards each other. Which can only erupt with greater and greater calamity. These forces are represented by good and evil. With the forces of good being represented by our Judea-Christian heritage, dependent upon Christ centered churches. With the other force being evil and represented by Islam and its patronizing sympathetic coalitions. Such as governments, especially the United States government, leftist organizations, and to our shame, some churches.

What makes some of these forces difficult to identify is that they are embodied in nation states. So that the world sees global unrest and its wars, as being wars between secular states. To a certain degree that is true. But the real danger between our colliding worlds will manifest itself more. As Islam moves to make Islamic states out of nations, as they move West. Make no mistake the United States is in the Islamic hunt. 9/11, FULFILLED A BIBLICAL EXPLANATION FOR ISLAMS EVIL !!!

It’s all by prophetic design. With Israel and the United States being the center piece of many prophecies. Reference to the Jewish state is well documented in the Bible. That is not the case concerning the United States. While the U.S. is not directly mentioned, it is in a more obscure way. The United States, can be traced by the serious student of the Bible. Through Jacob, to his son Joseph, the father of Manasseh. Through whom, we trace our lineage as a nation. That is our historical connection with the Jews. An inseparable bond between Jew, and Gentile. From that connection came the birth of our Judea-Christian heritage.

The existence of these two nations, as a people is in great danger because of their spiritual ethnicity. Which has made them targets for extinction by Islam and peripheral groups like al-Qaeda. Do not allow the secular world and some Christian organizations to feed you a false line. That it’s only a few radicals from numerous peripheral Islamic countries that represent a threat to world civility. As are Muslims, in the United States. And that Jews, and Christians do not have anything to fear from the Islamic world. Because wherever a Muslim is found, within the boundaries of any non-Muslims existence there is danger. The larger their numbers the greater the danger.

That is their pathetic history as one takes notice of attempted, or actual Islamic violence around the world. Muslims can’t even live in civility among themselves, as globally they kill each other. From that perspective, it’s impossible to expect Muslims to be a civil neighbor for long in non-Muslim states. In America, we have 9/11, as our proof, and Fort Hood. Followed by the near fatal attack upon Northwest Flight 253, on Christmas day, as it approach Detroit’ Metro airport. Including numerous failed or planned attempts. Like the plans of Lady al Qaeda which played out in a Manhattan federal court room. Which ended yesterday with a conviction. And then we have an American President, Barack Obama, lying to himself, the American public and the world community. By extending an olive branch of peace and good will to the Islamic world. Which only serves as an inspiration to evil, because it helps evil to understand that the prey is soon to be devoured. Followed by Osama bin Laden’ promise to President Obama that more attacks will follow. Promising no peace or security for Americans. Confirmed by the nations CIA director, Leon Panetta, 03 February 10,  that Muslims will attempt to hit the U.S. with a major strike within 3-6 months.

But this to is by prophetic design, and because of that, they are helpless to be any different from what they truly are, a mostly violent people. Muslims trace their lineage back to Abraham, and his illegitimate son, Ishmael. Which strongly suggest that Islam is an illegitimate religion. This is the result of that Islamic lineage, as recorded in Genesis 16:12. “And he will be a wild man; his hand shall be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.”

How can Islam be defined defined? Easy with just one word, Evil! As many know, and even more who do not know, Pope Benedict XV1, got himself in a lot of trouble with Muslims. When he gave a truthful account of Muslim behavior by repeating what Christian Byzantine Emperor Manuel 11 stated. Who said, Show me just what Mohammad brought that was new, and there you’ll find things evil and inhuman.”  Strange, how a person steeped  in non-truths can get the truth out.

So lets see how that statement is playing out in America. Leaving behind the Emperor and the Pope. We travel to New York City. There we find criminal trial playing out upon the national stage.

Where Aafia Siddique, a mother of two, and a committed Muslim, is on trial and facing a life in prison sentence. She’s 37 and on trial in a Manhattan federal court room. Educated at MIT as a neuroscientist. She’s described as being petite and a woman who keeps all but her eyes hidden behind a headscarf and a veil. She’s been tagged as ‘Lady al-Queda.’

People like Siddique emerge from Islamic hell hole and come to the United States. They get their education here, and then to show their gratitude for an American education, they try to kill us. As she did when she grabbed a military rifle fired at an American soldier and at FBI agents. Shouting, “Allah Akbar” meaning God is great.

The FBI say she’s an al-Qaeda operative. When they arrested her, she had in her possession plans for a mass casualty attack on several New York City landmarks, including the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty.

She elected to boycott her own jury selection. Demanding that Jews should be excluded from serving on the jury. In court she said, “I have a feeling everyone here is one of them (Jews) and should be subject to genetic testing.” “They should be excluded if you want to be fair,” telling U.S. federal Judge Richard Berman. Later that day she propelled a note across the courtroom to prosecutors asking for time to pray.

America just doesn’t need these kind of people traversing the American landscape think raising mayhem of death.
It’s a serious matter that will never have satisfactory resolution. Because it’s a biblical declaration, with centuries of proof. Making Christian Byzantine Emperor Manuel 11, the chronicler of centuries of truth, too. Here is that biblical declaration, “And he (Ishmael verse 11 and Islams founder) will be a wild man; his hand shall be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” Meaning like annoying ants Muslims are everywhere sure to bite anyone nearby, eventually!

A Lancaster, California Councilwoman, Sherry Marquez, has been taken to task by Muslims. Because she posted a note of truth on her Facebook page recently. She said, that she was horrified at the beheading of Aasiya Hassan in New York. The beheading occurred in 2008 and was a “honor killing” executed by her husband. She went on to say that that is what Islam is really about. A sterling diamond of truth. For that the Muslim devils accused her of being a bigot and a divisive influence and demanding an apology.

Some quick thoughts-Councilwoman, Marquez should have been horrified, as should we. And frightened that such devils exist among us. And like their master the Devil they roam among us seeking whom they may devour.

From their dens of evil (mosques) emerged Muslim Major Nidal Milik Hasan, who went on a killing rampage at Fort Hood. Then came Umar Farouk Abdulmutallah carrying a bomb in his underwear that failed to explode, as American Northwest airliner, plight 253 was approaching Detroits Metro airport on Christmas day.

So it’s the complaining Muslim devils that should be offering a series of apologies. Only the Devil could foster such a mind set upon his captives in the 21 century. We Christians need to stand with Councilwoman Marquez for her courage. And work for the deliverance from the Devil’s grasps these pathetic people through Jesus Christ.

The Word the most powerful instrument on the face of the globe. In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God,” John 1:1. With Jesus being God because he said so, “I and my Father are one,” John 10:30. The Word traveled forward centuries. Blessing many, and cursing even more, the curse, Revelation 12:9. Here it is, “I have given them your Word and the world has hated them because they are not of this world even as I am not of this world,” John 17:14. “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, Amen,” Philemon 1:25, as you read on!

Many advantages exist for us, who are not of this world. Like the following, “And I will pour upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and supplication,” Zechariah 12:10a. That is a prophecy for the end time, but it has meaning for us in Christ and its found in Revelation 22:16b, “I am the root of David, and the Bright and Morning Star. Which takes us back to Zechariah 12:10b, ” and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one is in bitterness for his first born.” Because he was wounded and bruised because of our transgressions, and from that fatal process we have peace and are healed, Isaiah 53:5.

And we in Christ know that we have been sent to testify unto the churches, Revelation 22:16a, our sorrows as shared with the prophet Zechariah in chapter 12:10, with the bitterness for the loss of a firstborn. Hoping to wake up a sleeping church to combat the evils of society that would crush his church. Because Christ was badgered and bloodied because of us, Revelation 19:13. Now redeemed, we must bring the world to it knees through the preaching of the gospel while there is time, Matthew 24:14. With bitterness for the loss of God’s first born which the redeemed share. Our duty is to pick up his cross and put aside our self interests, Mark 8:34b, then fight to convince the world of their need to repent and become part of the redeemed, Ephesians 2:1. Because of the treacherous influences of yesterday, Ephesians 2:2.

But that together, and you’ll be one up when it comes to understanding word events. Because the dead know nothing which is the power of sin, Ephesians 2:1. Putting the world is in a state of mean and angry resistance. Resulting in global chaos for individuals and nation states.

“Grace to you and peace, from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ,” Philemon 1:3.

Traveling through a desert a man saw a woman standing all alone with eyes bent to the ground.

“Who are you?” he asked.

“I am truth,” she answered.

“And why have you left the city to live in the desert?”

“Because things have changed, she answered. “In days gone by, lying was confined to a few. But now days whenever you converse with people, you find that they are all liars.”

Human life is vile and a wretched thing, when falsehood is honored above truth. (source:Fables of Aesop-Penguin Classics-”A City of Lies”)

But this truth is everlasting. “The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good,” Proverbs 15:3. And, “Whoso rewards evil for good shall not depart from his house,” Proverbs 17:13. Meaning that ultimately such behaviors renders individual and nation states pursuits to the fires of the garbage furnace. Making certain that falsehoods is a sure path to destruction, for individuals and nation states. It’s impossible for the goodness of God dwell in the midst of such wretchedness. Therefore depriving a people, and their nation the extended hand of God in the arena of prosperity.

America is becoming a nation of falsehoods and with that being the case her avenues pf prosperity are vanishing. That at least is not new, as many can attest with dwindling personal prosperity. As can the nation, as the government on Thursday, 28 January 2010 voted to raise our national debt ceiling to $14.3 trillion. That’s about $45,000 of debt for every American man, woman and child. Signaling an ineptness to basic economics that prosperity can’t come from what one does not own. Thomas Jefferson put it this way, “The principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling the futurity on a large scale.”

Here is what is at the core of individual and national falsehoods. It’s the abandonment of our national dependence upon our Judea-Christian heritage.

For it is a scriptural declaration that when falsehoods are abandoned for truth this is the result. And he (individuals/nations) shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth fruit in its season, its leaf shall not whiter; and whatsoever is done shall prosper,” Psalms 1:3.

It means returning to our Judea-Christian heritage which made America what it was in days gone by.

It’s impossible to separate a people from their nation because the people are the nation. Which is also so for the church because the people are the church. And the church of all institutions needs to reject a galaxy of falsehoods, for Biblical truths. If we as individuals, and a nation are to enjoy the leaf prosperity that does not whither. That sees the miraculous wheel of God turning out goods and services to the peoples delight and the nations glory. That is the only permanent way for avoiding future and getting out of this recession. In other words, “America the Beautiful.” It results with the people and the nation experiencing this, “The LORD is my Shepherd, I shall not want,” Psalms 23:1.

That which follows, most likely will not stir the interest of a President Obama, (euphemism politicians) nor the celebrity status driven people of Hollywood, nor the driven athletic super star. And certainly not the masters of exploitation on Wall Street. With rare exception, they are all about making history, being glamorized or immortalized, and made very wealthy, even if they have to cheat those who can least afford to be cheated.

There is a better way and it starts with the recognition of this heralded dispatch of centuries past. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways says the Lord,” Isaiah 55:8. Then what are the ways and thoughts of the LORD? Many! But hear are a few, master them, and find the destiny of prosperity. And of course, learn to avoid what is made clear instructional from our sacred scriptures. In that quest, do not think in terms of being a history maker, or being glamorized, or immortalized or wealthy beyond your imagination. Although that is not beyond a possibility, but rather think in terms of a destiny of prosperity in service to Jesus Christ. For those, who make that journey, they have indeed discovered the destiny of prosperity. Because another eternal promise from the promise maker is, “Behold! I come quickly and my reward is with me to give to each according to their work,” Revelation 22:12.

Here is one path to that destiny of prosperity. “Happy are the people, who walk not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful, But their delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law they meditate day and night. They shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season; its leaf shall not wither; and whatsoever they do shall prosper,” Psalms 1:1-3.

As contrasted by the tumultuous experiences thrust upon the history seeking makers, celebrity status folks, heroes from the world of athletics and those dollar crunchers who do so at any cost. Irregardless of the harm done.  Collectively who are described as like this, “But the ungodly (non-Christians) are not so, but are like the chaff (waste) which the wind drives away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous (meaning when life is over for them they will not know the rewards mentioned above, Revelation 22:12).  For the LORD knows the way of the righteous; (Christians) but the way of the ungodly shall perish,” (meaning the second death of eternal nothingness which is the inability to withstand the judgment, Revelation 20:15, but to get the full impact of nothingness read verses 11-14, also) Psalms 1:4-6.

All because of the following. “For the preaching of the cross is to them that parish foolishness, but unto us who are saved it’s the power of God,” 1 Corinthians 1:18.

With a quick glance back to the first paragraph as a refresher of the ways and destinies of so very many. Those numerous pursuits are experienced as follows, “For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent,” 1 Corinthians 1:19. Meaning it’s very difficult to convince people that they are not wise and prudent in their pursuits.

With perhaps God beginning to pinch the wayward ways of the self obsessed of paragraph one. Who want a kingdom but with out God involved in any way. Especially the history seekers who mostly represent our system of government. And because of the them, that pinch is feeling more like a bite. For all, even the Christ community, who may really be the ultimate target of that bite.

On a particular day Jesus was meant by some angry people, who confronted him directly. Challenging him by demanding, if you are the Christ tell us directly.

With a public out cry occurring with Jesus engaging in this exchange of words. I told you, and you believed not; the works that I do in my Father’s name they bear witness of me. But you believed not because you are not one of us. My people hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never parish, neither shall anyone plunk them out of my Father’s hand. My Father, who gave them to me is greater than all, and no man can plunk them out of the Father’s hand. I and my Father are one! That was more than the gathering mob could endure. This Christ, born of a woman, and equating himself with God was worthy of death by stoning.

Jesus showing no fear said, many good works have I shown you from my Father; which of those works are going to cause you to stone me?  The mob was quick to respond. For good works, we’ll not stone you. But for equating yourself with God, for that we’ll stone you! (source John 10:23-33)

When Jesus walked the hallowed territories of Palestine, he was often confronted by an opposing religion to his teachings. Who had the support of a wimpy political system that tried to walk on both sides of the street at the same time. Which led to the brutal murder of Jesus.

Now two thousand years later those of us, who hear his voice, and have his eternal promises which never ages. Know that we can’t be plunked from the Father’s hand because Jesus is the Father. But we can be stoned by a suicide bomber because we know Allah is not God and Muhammad has no standing as a prophet in these United States. And that Islam is a sham as a religion, and must be seen as a military political system determined to impose Islamic law upon the nation.

There are two things wrong with this scenario. Muslims disagree with my caricature of Allah and his prophet while fully waring for an America under Islamic law. While, we have a wimpy government in Washington. Doing their best to repeat the tragedy that Jesus encountered. By walking on the same side of the street at the same time. Which if allowed to continue, will result in the brutal murder of many.

The cost of discipleship is ones willingness to put oneself in harms way for Christ. As did Jesus, when declaring himself to be God. So to must we, as Christ believers. When we denounce Islam for what it is, a military political system determined to remake America in the image of Allah and Muhammad.

But, as we all know appearances are deceiving. Just as sure as the sun will rise and set, so will those Muslims scattered across America, rise and set by striking another death blow upon a nation.

For sometime the nation has been deceived into accepting the term terrorist as applying to some extremist within the Muslim religion. That is a terribly misleading notion about Muslims. A more realistic tag would be revolutionaries because that’s what a Muslim is no matter where one is found. Islam is committed to bringing as many nations as possible under Islamic rule. And that’s the way it should be, from an Islamic perspective. And that’s precisely why the United States must start the process shutting down Islamic mosques, and riding the nation of as many Muslims as possible.

Because in the United States, the nations culture and laws are primarily based around the concepts of a Judea-Christian philosophy. Which are in direct conflict with the culture and laws of Islam. And that equation can never be solved, so that the two cultures can exist together. Therefore, Muslims will continue to attack us and kill us. And as their numbers grow with their mosques (military compounds) growing from  thousands to the tens of thousands. The Islamic revolutionary crisis will mushroom exponentially out of control. It’s inevitable just by observing Muslim behavior around the world. The greater their numbers the greater the chaos.

Guaranteed by the master craftsman of revolutionary guerrilla warfare, Osama bin Laden. Who recently chronicled this promise for Americas future. While assuming responsibility for the near fatal, Northwest Airlines, Flight 253 bombing attempt on Christmas day. As the jet airliner was approaching Detroit, from an international flight. Who went on to chronicle this promise directly to President Obama. Declaring the attack was designed to be similar to 9/11. Assuring the President that additional attacks would be forthcoming. Declaring that it wasn’t fair for Americans to be living in peace. While his brothers in Gaza suffer greatly. (source Al Jazeera)

Blatantly stating, “America will never dream of security unless we will have it in reality in Palestine,” he added. “God willing our raids on you will continue as your support continues for Israel.” (source Al Jazeera)

Ramblings from the news wires indicate that there is talk in Washington, as to whether the United States can legally assassinate a United States citizen in Yemen. Finally assuming the Bush doctrine that targeting a U.S. citizen on foreign soil is legally acceptable. If that person was engaged in criminal acts in the United States, with the intent to harm Americans. The target American born Muslim cleric, Anwar al- Awlaki. Who is accused of having ties with Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who carried a bomb in his underwear. That failed to explode while he was a passenger aboard Northwest Flight 253 as it approached Detroit Metro airport. Whom the Muslim world called a hero through their spokes person, master guerrilla revolutionary, Osama bin Laden. Who said, “The message delivered to you through the plane of the heroic warrior Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was a confirmation of the previous message sent by the heroes of 9/11.” Continuing, “America will never dream of security, unless we will have it in reality in Palestine.” (source Al Jazeera)

With those same news wires accusing this same American born Muslim cleric of having mentored, U.S. Army Major, Nidal Milik Hasan, who went on a killing rampage at Fort Hood. This mentoring between Muslim cleric, Anwar al-Awlaki and Major Hasan, occurred at his Northern Virginia mosque where he condemned the United States and Israel.

The tragedy of this is that mosque in Northern Virginia is still operational as a military fortress. Disguised as a religious institution but functioning as a training facility for attacks upon Americans, upon American soil. I ask, in times of war, what lunacy prevails that would allow the enemy to fortify itself on another nations sovereign soil? Answer! The United States government which fails to understand what Islam represents.They got this twisted notion that only a few wayward Muslims manage this national and international cartel of global violence with even fewer combatants. Despite repeated Islamic threats to kill us and eliminate Israel. And at a cost of trillions of dollars to send the U.S. military into hot combat zones. While creating a new agency called Homeland Security, costing millions, to secure the home front from Islamic attacks. Case Proven-America is governed by a collection of lunatics.

Which only leaves room for one solution which is for Christians to come together for the self preservation of ourselves, and our nation. Therefore, this clergyman is available to lecture on the contents of this posting. As well as to conduct workshops on how to save ourselves and our nation.

The task seems overwhelming, and it is, so I’ll share the encouraging words of Helen Keller, who said, “The world is not only moved by the mighty shoves of the heroes, but by the aggregate pushes by honest workers.” And from Jesus who observed some anxiety among his disciples said,” … with men this impossible but with God all things are possible,” Matthew 19:26. And with Jesus being God, (John 10:30) he speaks with authority. The only authority needed to put into full play, “Onward Christian Soldiers.”

In every way, Christ served as the perfect example, as to what his followers could expect. Alienation, mockery, rejection, and death. Under those circumstances, why would anyone want to participate in the cause of Christ? There is no simple, or single answer to that question. Each person who names them self as a Christian, has a singular reason applicable to ones self.

But important to Jesus that whatever the reason for serving his cause, he wanted his followers to know how to pray. After his death, a new covenant or relationship with his followers would be instituted by God the Father. Lots of things were about to change. Which remain in effect today, perhaps the most significant change to occur would be prayer.

The disciples knew Jesus practiced this unique phenomenon called prayer. They wanted the power of this prayer phenomenon. Jesus decided to allow his disciples taste this power. So Jesus had a discussion with his disciples about a withered fig tree. It was illustrative about the power of prayer that they could exercise. He said to them. “I say to you, whoever shall say unto this mountain, be you removed, and be cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass, he shall have whatever he saith. Therefore, I say to you. Whatever things you desire that you ask in prayer, believe that you will receive them, and you shall have them,” Mark 11:20-24.

That power passed unto the disciples, expired with his ascension to heaven some 40 days after his resurrection. It is not available to the followers of Christ today. But there is an exception, and it appears to be connected with the empowerment by the Holy Spirit.

A gift God guards judiciously lest it be abused. It can be observed through a careful study of The Acts of the Church, better recognized as the Book of Acts. I prefer the former because we can trace the early zeal of the church and compare it with today’s church. Clearly giving us an understanding of why the world is in such terrible shape. And just maybe a hint, as to why so many prayers are futile. It surely appears that praying is more about doing than asking. The asking then is minimized because God provides in accordance with our participating in his mission. Often measured by the expressions of this postings first paragraph.

Concerning prayer, few things provoke more out rage from the people within the church than to suggest most prayers of give me and do for me fall upon the deaf ears of God. It is an easy truth to test. For example, consider any of our troubling world issues. The war against Islam or the entrenched conflicts in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq as examples. Ask for Christ intervention, in favor of the Americans. Do not leave out the hunt for Osama bin Laden, the man who changed the landscape of America and the world with a rag tag military force. Who continues to menace America, and will snuff out your church sooner than later. Because that is what Islam is really about, and God will not intervene, why? The clergy, and their parishioners have been praying that prayer for several years. And the Lord Jesus Christ remains silent. It will remain that way!

Many ask their Christian God to bless America. It is absolute foolishness even to think that, Jesus, as the Son of God would bless America. God will not bless a people, or a nation that is in a state of spiritual apostasy. Whatever, America receives from God it is a result of his mercy and not his blessings. This beloved nation of ours was granted existence as a world power. To serve as an example of a people who existed to exemplify the values of Christ. Today, America is a nation that has lost its Christian way. Only God almighty knows what penalty, he will extract as justice for our national sins. When one reads about Gods judgments, they are promises and not just warnings.

Perhaps making it personal might help. Experiencing some long standing problem. Ask Jesus, in accordance with John 14:14 to honor his promise. “If you shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.” It will not happen! Even if, the petitioners are as perfect before Jesus, as humanly possible.

Does that mean that there is no hope when we pray? Absolutely Not! It is a matter of how we pray. We must pray the prayer Jesus taught.

Jesus taught, when you pray, say, “Our Father in heaven, holy you are,” Matthew 6:9. We are to recognize his purity and perfections as creator and sustaining force of his creation. Nothing occurs without his permission. Not the rising or the setting of the sun. One of my favorite verses is Psalms 24:1, “The earth is the LORD’ and the fullness thereof; the world, and they who dwell therein.” In just a few words, we have the essences of his sacredness. The complete complexity and beauty of his creation. Most certainly worthy of his creations constant praise.

Matthew 6:10, reveals the following, “Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.”

For the followers of Christ, today those are words of expectation. Because Christ taught, that he will once again at some unknown time intervene in the affairs of humanity. Eventually establishing his Kingdom on earth. Diligent followers of Christ know that troubling times face humanity. Jesus said, those days will be the most horrific in the history of humanity, Matthew 24:21-22. But in the meantime, each Christ follower must in their own way prepare the way of the Lord. As an integral part of God’s will on this earth.

And your will be done on earth, just like it is in heaven, vs.10. Which also suggests that some, who name his name as their own may be unaware of his plan for earth, designed in heaven; learn it! while time remains. And remember that Revelation 22:12 is not a threat, it is a promise. “And behold, I come quickly, and my reward is with me, to give to every person, according to their work.”

God is mercy full, always wanting to provide for his people. But prerequisites existed, which were laid out for us in verses nine and ten. Not enough can be said about the need to understand and master the contents of those verses.

Christ then moves on giving us permission to seek our daily bread. in Matthew 6:11. Which implies that our personal needs and troubles, along with our international concerns discussed above will receive his divine attention. Should that occur it is a result of God’s provision as our “daily bread.” The phrase, our “daily bread” is an all encompassing expression. Covering needs and personal desires from A-Z for each of his followers. But that does not mean, what we want we will get. Not getting, is a silent cause for doubting the promises of Christ. Resulting in some turning away from Christ. To the dreadful, and sinful life styles, they put behind for a life with Christ.

This is what must be understood when we pray. God answers our prayers in accordance with his judgments. He instructed us not to use vain repetitious thinking that me might be heard. Because it shows a spiritual ineptness, and mimics the prayers those outside of his saving grace, Matthew 6:7. Christ admonishes not to be like them, but to understand that our Father knows what we need even before we ask, verse eight. And has done so from time immemorial, but not always to our taste. So for some God gets the blame and not the petitioner.

Matthew 6:12-13, requires our constant attention when we pray. In a very real sense, it is our spiritual barometer. “And for give us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever, Amen.”

In five verses we have the complete outline of instructions on how to pray. But absent from the prayer Jesus taught are the hidden clues riddled through out scriptures. Which I suspect was done purposefully, with the Masters hope that his followers would find them. Moving on to greater understanding of ones spirituality.

Yes, people of God, are directed to be separate from secularism. It works in the following manner. What concord has Christ with Belail (meaning nothingness)? Or they that believe with infidels? 2 Corinthians 6:15. Clearly showing a separation between two very different pursuits in this world.

Whether the majority within the general public accepts the nothingness of their society, it is immaterial to the responsibilities of individual committed Christians. In the end their individual and collective societies will return to dust from which they came. Not a pleasant reality but accurate as it is truthful from the scriptures.

That is what individual death, and the changing of world powers is all about. Death is observable all the time, nothingness and dust. With the changing of world powers being less frequent. But it is happening right before us today, as the United States slips from being the global premiere economic and military power. The United States will clearly become the paper tiger that some noticed some time ago. It all represent God’s clear object lessons of the nothingness outside of his directives. That is what human suffering is all about. It started in the book of Genesis. It helps some to understand the Psalmist lamenting, “Why do the nations rage and the people imagine a vain thing?” Psalms 2:1.

The hope for America is to reclaim her destiny from our ancestors Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Manasseh, David and Jesus Christ. Three nations have enjoyed unusual blessings from God. They are Israel, Great Britain and the United States. But each in their own way, are in the grips of the prophecy of Hosea chapter five Which can be summed up in verse four, …”and they have not known the LORD.” Meaning to have failed to dot the (i) and cross their (t) in accordance with God’s directives.

“And what agreement has the temple of God (you and me) with idols? verse 16a. The church should be about the business of the church, as exemplified by Jesus Christ. Who was murdered for his opposition to secular governments and religious fraud. Verse 16b continues, “For you are the temple of the living God …” Which represents a vast difference between people. Pursuing very different approaches to life. One which sees the bigger picture outside of themselves where existence continues after all seemingly ends. While the other grapples to survive gathering prestige and other stuff, knowing that in a several decades it all ends forever. One represents a glorious existence while the other a pitiful end.

Which is why the command is specific, “Wherefore, come out from among them and be separate, saith the Lord …,” verse 17a.

Which will now take us to Acts of the church, where we find centuries later the young church lamenting the cries of the Psalmist in chapter two, verses two and three. But the scene has changed, but the behavior being the same. Note the similarities then and at the time of the early church. “…why did the nations rage, and the peoples imagine vain things? The kings (governments) stood up, and the rulers were gathered against the Lord, and against his Christ. For a truth against your child, Jesus, whom you have anointed. Both Herod, Pontius Pilate, with the nations, and the people of Israel where gathered together. To do whatever your hand and your counsel determined before to be done,” Acts 4:25-28. Meaning it is the revolving door of history repeating itself through the centuries. Begging for wise people not to repeat the historical errors of their predecessors. Which is to reject God and his Christ, who is the only figure, who can alter the nothingness of existence. Nullifying the rage between the nations. Bringing an end to the vain imaginations of the people.

Verse 16a, wants to know what possible agreement could exist between the temple of God and idols? Although touched upon above, the term *idols* represents the perfect pursuit of nothingness. All those pursuits, whatever they may be outside of the sanctions of God Almighty.

But for those of us, who diligently pursue the sacred sanctions of God. This is where our fortitude to persevere comes from. It is put in this manner, “What? Know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you? Whom you have from God, and you are not your own! For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which is God’s,” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20.

The world that most are engaged in amounts to nothingness. While the world, of those who have the compact of 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, remain in a world called *somethingness* with earthly challenges and divine rewards. It all comes down to personal and national choice. Individually, and collectively as groups of nations, crunch time is always on the horizon.

On the last Thursday, before he was murdered, Mary Magdalene anointed Jesus with a very expensive herb. Drawing some rather sharp criticism from Judas. Which drew a sharp rebuke from Jesus. Issuing a new commandment instructing followers that where ever the gospel is shared tribute should be given to her.

Why? Because God was about to end one covenant with humanity, and begin a new covenant. During his earthly ministry, Jesus was accustomed to having people always wanting something done for them. Now, comes Mary and does not ask anything for herself. Instead she anoints the head of Jesus, Matthew 26:7 and his feet, John 12:3. This was an act of contriteness, respect, and worship. Jesus captured the moment to immortalize Mary. By saying, “Verily I say unto you, wherever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world. It shall be told what this woman hath done as a memorial of her,” Matthew 26:13.

Three simple words, but it is exactly what God expects from us today. Which this posting will only touch upon, but one that much can learned

Two ministerial functions were taking place. Jesus said, Mary performed a ceremonial rite in preparation for his death, Matthew 26:12. Then Jesus told his disciples that soon he would leave them. Mary’s act of contrition was to signal that his relationship with us would change. In his absences the prayer of petitioning Jesus would end.There would be no more miracles. His followers (you and me) our approach should also be one of contriteness. Meaning recognition of our sinful nature. Seeking redemption through Christ, as exemplified in John 1:12, “But as many as received him, to them gave he the power to become the children of God, even them that believe on his name.” Followed by worship verse 13-14, Who was born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we should behold his glory, as the glory of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. Followed by service to humanity, *John bore witness of him … verses 15-18.

Note how John dealt with the religious and civil authorities sent to question him, John 1:19-23. This is the witness, or service of John, who are you? John replied not the Christ. Again asking, what are you and who are you? John answered, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness. Wilderness representing the vast nothingness of temporal society. Following the instructions of Isaiah who said make for the way of the Lord! Like John, the Christ followers primary duty from the wilderness is a duty to reject, turn away and over throw. Any religious or civil authorities, who do not recognize the authenticity of preparing the way of the Lord.

Knowing this would be a tough sell, Jesus said, that he would sometime in the future intervene in the affairs of humanity. During this interim period, humanity would be left to its own devices as to how to manage the planet. As everyone can see, collectively the planet is not being managed in a successful manner. Surely, it is not from the lack of people praying and asking God for miracles. Name your hot button, maybe it is the end of America’ wars. Saving lives, and trillions for an economy desperate in need of money, or global warming. Could be a personal relationship, or some health issue. And, the list could go on for pages, with things pretty much remaining unchanged.

Today the duty is to stop asking and start doing. Prepare the way of the Lord because only Christ can provide the kind government people want. We start by resisting evil manifested through corrupt governments and fraudulent religions. Who combine their numbers to exert subjugating tactics that paralyze the people. To the extent that most can not act to obtain their own best interest. Making many people subservient to political and religious systems alien to their instincts. Find those instincts, shred them and liberation is yours.

Here is on of of those tactics for subservient submission. Prayer is often addressed by the clergy in around about manner. When people ask, or complain about the silence of God. The safe answer is it is not the will of God or some other flimsy answer. Which of course is, not very comforting to the parishioner. Today is a different time in which Christians are to stop asking and start doing.

What many do not understand, but most suspect, many churches are about the building of steel, wood and concrete castles that generate money, prestige, and power for the clergy. The church for the most part is not about the execution of the work of Christ. Because of this the church has given the world a kingdom without God. This is how John describes the failure of the Church. Because you say you are rich, and increased in goods, and have need of nothing. Do you not know, said John, as heaven opened its gates and granted this observation, you are wretched, poor, blind, and naked, Revelation 3:17.

But according to verse nineteen, there is hope. We as a body of believers still have time to impact our world. Taking away its kingdom. By preparing the way for the return of Christ. “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten; be zealous, therefore and repent,” Revelation 3:19.

Considering subjugating tactics that paralyze the people. It is playing out in real life terms before us. With the Obama administration which drugs most of the people with their hyperbole of national and international solutions. President Obama, as we are discovering is not America’s solution. With a degree also in political science, this writer is available to give a litany of information from Supreme Court cases to the corrupt politics of economics to substantiate such a declaration. Including the perspective of failed politics from the failed Christian policies. From the former, a solution does not exist, but for the latter the solution is waiting to happen.

As always the choice is ours, be silent and go with the flow, or determine mutiny is the answer. Which must occur, when one prepares for the way of the Lord.

Israel has a new leader a youthful military leader. And from the get go, he receives his commission. It was valid for Joshua 14 centuries before God became Jesus Christ. But back to Joshua this is what God told Joshua and us today. “This book of the law (for us grace) (but with binding truths to be practiced like the law) shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you might may observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then you shall be made very prosperous, and you shall have good success,” Joshua 1:8.

The pure unadulterated word of God offers individuals and the world community everything desired and yet its refused. Wonder in confusion and trapped by nothingness is the plight of many and certainly governments. With the United States being at the top of the pack of nations. Because the book of Genesis teaches that God expected so very much from the United States.

But for those of us in Christ, as it was for Joshua, so it’s for us, “Have not I commanded you? Be strong; be not afraid, neither be dismayed; for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go,” Joshua 1:9.

With those promises come Monday, those of us in Christ will be ready for the battles with evil that we’ll encounter Monday. And many of them will be tossed our way by our own government. Such a shame for the ancestors of Manasseh, the people who make up the United States. We are going the way of Manasseh’ younger brother Ephraim, Great Britain. Who has fallen so far from the mountain top, that she is no longer recognized as a major power in any area, on the world theater.

As part of our nature, human curiosity is never satisfied. In one form or another, our species is busy satisfying our curiosity about the things to come. Always wondering what tomorrow will bring, and at times, with personal peril for what will occur today. Which seems to be a constant trait, through out history.

Humanities greatest pursuit should be making sure our today’s are pleasing to God. Then our tomorrow’s will fall into place. What was said of Noah, should be our pursuit today and tomorrow. It was said of Noah, that he had found grace in the eyes of the Lord, Genesis 6:8.

For our time, Paul in Galatians chapter one put it this way. “Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this evil age. According to the will of God and our Father, to whom be glory for ever and ever, Amen,” verses 4-5. Note, the “will of God.” Many want to know the will of God. Agreed, the “will of God” is dimensional having varied applications for ones life. But none is greater, than to deliver us from evil. God wants to keep his creation safe. Humanity is made safe through Christ. That can not happen, until one clearly understands, and accepts the Christ sacrifice for individual sin. Christ’s life his saving power, is then available to deliver us from the influences of this evil world.

Then Jesus taught, “Seek first the ‘kingdom of God’ and ‘his righteousness,” Matthew 6:33. Very important, “Be therefore not anxious about ‘tomorrow;’ for ‘tomorrow’ will be anxious for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is its own evil,” verse 34.

What is meant by the phrase “sufficient unto this day is its own evil? Jesus taught us about that evil in Matthew 24:38-39. It is called by this writer clergyman, the genesis effect Because it puts into play, the curiosity of the human nature.

Many have paid good money to fortune tellers and others to get a glimpse of the future. And millions could be earned if someone could foretell tomorrow’s history with accuracy. Especially, if they could provided proof as to whether world history as we now know it will end. The good news is, yes, word events as we know them will end. The regretful news no one knows the timing. Jesus put it this way. “the day and hour knoweth no man, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only,” Matthew 24:36.

Even the disciples wanted to know when the world would end. “… tell us when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of your coming, and the end of the age?” Matthew 24:3.

Jesus told them it will be just like in the days of Noah, Matthew 24:37. What where those days like? Genesis gives this account. It was a time of unusual wickedness. Humanities pursuit was a thought process of producing only evil, Genesis 6:5. So successful was humanity in this endeavor that the earth was corrupted with violence, Genesis 6:11. To the point that God regretted that he created humanity. Moses expressed God’s sorrow with these words, “it grieved him at his heart,” Genesis 6:5-6.

But God is always merciful, in Noah God had a just man. Perfect in his generation for he walked with God, Genesis 6:9.

God had determined to end that age with a devastating flood. “God said unto Noah, the end of all flesh is come before me. The earth is filled with violence through them. Behold I will destroy them with the earth,” Genesis 6:13. Going on to instruct Noah to build an ark, verse 14. Then entering into a new relationship with Noah with the entering of the ark, Genesis 6:18.

So will it be in the unknown future when God will have had enough of humanities wickedness. Noah’s ark served as a prophetic picture that evil is an abomination to God to be destroyed.

But as Noah, found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Becoming a just man perfect in his generation, and able to walk with God. That is the destiny of people who find grace in Jesus. Becoming perfect in our generation, and able some day to walk with God. The path to that walk was introduced above.

For it is the promise of scriptures that this age will end, and all those in Christ will have an Ark like experience. Not on the waters but in the sky.

The role President Ronald Reagan played in establishing world terror haunts the world today. So far in the past, but true, he was a President, that so many Americans revere. Who like most American Presidents had one focus. Which was his own self interest to go into the history books with greatness attached to his name.

What Americans should demand from congress. Is a national motto. Perhaps stamped on our currency broadcasting “to Hell with the People.” Because that is the end result of their service to the American public. That is most applicable for both foreign and domestic policy. Just think of the trillions spent fighting wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, wars that are not win able. At home who do you think is responsible for our financial meltdown and the Wall Street crisis? None other than the McCain’s and Obama’s. With both men blaming greed as the culprit. While it was the legislative bodies and the President who made greed so attractive. When it was working it was called the hand of God in the market place.

Fault goes deeper than that because the mess the world is in today is largely the fault of the Christian church. Because we have allowed our government to govern from a perspective of non-Christian principles. And we the public, to whom the republic belongs must now pay the consequences. As a church, we are to splintered to be agents for change. Our hope rests in the prayer Jesus taught. “After this manner when you pray … Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth…, Matthew 6:9-10. Meaning, of course, until that time, work to have government function from a Christ perspective. Even a few can make a difference. The impossible can occur! Jesus said, “… if you shall say unto this mountain be *thou* removed, and be *thou* cast into the sea, it shall be done,” Matthew 21:21. But only through hard strenuous work with perhaps the loss of some life. Because Jesus was not talking about enormous clusters of rock, stones, ores, trees and dirt making grandeur mountain sites to behold and marvel over. The pronoun *thou* or today *you,* suggests mountain sites of greater grandeur, meaning humans as individuals and governments. Our task as a church is to cast those mountains of greater grandeur into the sea. Challenging people to be all they can be for Jesus. Then reshaping governmental institutions, committed to serve the public good, for the glory of God.

While a university student, studying political science. Professors often used the expression “might makes right.” It was always phrased as a question. As they went around the globe pointing out the over throw of sovereign governments by U.S. administrations. The various presidents of these administrations used their private or personal army for these regime changes, the Central Intelligence Agency. In particular, this student recalls the time spent by a professor lecturing on the aftermath of the Iranian revolution for the United States. Which ushered in the clerical party of fundamentalist Muslims, headed by Ayatollah Khomeini.

The CIA put the brutal government of Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi in power in 1953. His brutalization of the Iranian people employing his secret police, the Savak. Which fostered such hate for the Shah, that it resulted in the Shah fleeing to Morocco.

Most likely, the CIA sensing that their long time client was about to lose his control over the Iranian people. Found them busy in Paris, France, creating a new friendship with none other than Ayatollah Khomeini. Khomeini was busy forming a new Iranian government. In order to succeed he would need the support of the Americans.

In the United States, a presidential campaign was going on. Later it became known that members of the Reagan campaign were meeting with Khomeini in Paris. The plan keep the American hostages contained in the U.S. Embassy until Ronald Reagan was elected.

So Khomeini’s Iran, and Reagan’s America both got what they wanted. When all is finally played out on the world stage. It will be an arrangement that the United States will regret.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is becoming a global force. Reeking havoc where ever it is able to root itself. With Islam as its national religion. Islam amounts to a deadly deadly weed, and the world of civilized nations once again needs to exterminate this unsightly growth. Because if the civilized world fails to do so, the end result will be the strangulation of world stability. Know this, the only force that can accomplish this, is the body of believers, who make up the Church of Jesus Christ.

The United States with its power could have moved to replaced the Shah with a true form of a democratic government. Would not have been an easy task because of the U.S. backing of the Shah for decades. But the Iranians were not any more presupposed to a Islamic fundamentalist government. When “might makes right” it was more important to win an election than move to create a democratic government. Which was a colossal error. How colossal the error, only time will tell? Because the clerical government of Ayatollah Khomeini lives on.

The CIA always felt that the Iran was strategic to the control of the Middle East. Not only the Middle East, but the entire world. From that CIA blunder, the Islamic Republic of Iran was created. From that Iranian Republic, the graphics of might making right has been rendered obsolete. With a modern version for inflicting might in order to make things right from an Islamic perspective.

Here we are in the twenty first century and the United States is experiencing the Iranian version of “might makes right.” And just think, all this because of a cowboy. Who became President, and made political deals with the Devil. Resulting in pain, and suffering for Americans then, and now!

This writer clergyman is available to discuss the changed graphics of “might makes right.” Might has a brand new meaning in the 21 century; as opposed to the previous century. Noting how secular and religious history intersect to create brand new worlds. Not understood by many because they approach history from secular politics absent the politics of religion.

What is happening in the world today can be only understood from a religious perspective. That is one lesson Islamic Republic of Iran is busy teaching the United States and the world community. And they have their allies, even in the United States as they establish one more mosque after another.

However, with a great degree of failure among Western politicians. It has been said the best learned lessons are learned the hard way. Then, sometimes it is just to late. Let us hope it is not to late for the United States.

News that reverberates across the news wires that never fades.

“The abortion debate *turns deadly,* A doctor known for the performing late term abortions is gunned down,” ABC’s Diane Sawer.

Someone responded, “What do you mean, *turns deadly?* As if abortion hasn’t turned *turned deadly,* for 50 million babies since, Roe v Wade.

State sponsored abortions represents complex issues that do not always present themselves with easy solutions. Perhaps some abortions are necessary for reasons beyond the scope of this posting. But a abortions preformed out of convenience, for any and all parties represents a violation of God’s law, “You shall not Kill,” Exodus 20:13.

From the secular perspective, “Today when a concerted effort is made to obliterate this point, it can not be repeated to often that the Constitution is a limitation on government, not on individuals. It does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government. It’s not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizens protection against the government,” Author novelist, Ayn Rand, 1905-1982.

From the scriptural perspective. In times long forgotten God’s people did a better job resisting state evil, as did Daniels friends, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. From the historical record we have this account. The king issued a law requiring all his subjects to worship the idol he had made. And as with state sponsored evil, failure to comply brought consequences, Daniel 3:5-7. And Daniels friends bore the consequences, for putting God’s law ahead of government edicts, Daniel 3:14-15. Telling the hing directly, “… be it known unto you O King, that we will not serve your God’s. nor worship the golden image which you have set up,” Daniel 3:18. Because God’s law ordained, “You will not make unto yourself images, or likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth,” Exodus 20:4-5. Because God offers his own consequences for such behavior, “…visiting the iniquity of your fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generations that hate me,” Exodus 20:5. “And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love, and keep my commandments,” Exodus 20:6. Which was also the experience of Daniels friends. And because the king was mad, an exceeding hot fire was ignited in the furnace, Daniel 3:19. And they were cast into the furnace but suffered no harm, 20 & 23. But no harm came to them, verse 25. Because the three experienced the mercy of God, Exodus 20:6.

But in more modern times, we have the courageous Martin Luther,who defied the Roman Catholic Church, and helped usher in the Protestant Reformation. To Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who resisted Hitler’s Nazism and paid for it with his life. To Scott Roedr, who assassinated, ‘Tiler the Baby Killer,’ Sunday 31 May 2009.

But the perfect example for defying evil, is God himself, who asked? “Why do the heathen [nations] rage and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of this earth set themselves up, and the rulers take counsel against the LORD his anointed [Jesus Christ]. Saying let us break their bands asunder and cast their cords from us [God’s laws and influences]. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex [difficulties] them with his displeasure, Psalms 2:1-5.

Remember Jesus said, “I and my Father are one,” John 10:30. Part of picking up the cross [Matthew 16:24 and its about sacrifice [Matthew 16:25] and reward [Matthew 16:27] and following Jesus is to resist, Psalms 2:2-3.

Thundering across the skies with increasing greater noise are the teachings of Jacob, who gathered his family together and said, “… gather that I may tell you that which will befall you in the last days,” Genesis 49:1.

It’s a long history, but we are the offspring of Joseph’s sons Ephraim and Manasseh. With Hosea chiming in and saying, they have dealt treacherously against the LORD. Describing treachery as the *begotten strange children,* Hosea 5:7. Declared to be behaviors by thought, actions and deeds viewed by God as the ultimate departure from his counsel as recorded in the scriptures. And so, a fair question is, what do those departures represent?

For now, two such departures will be discussed. With the first being Americas determination to sanction homosexual life styles as acceptable behaviors. It is to be expected that the government would sanction and see homosexual behaviors as normal relationships. With such people being offered all civil conveniences entitled by law to non-homosexual people.

One of the failing and falling beauties of America, is our constitutional wall of separation between church and state. In the past, the Body of Christ, perhaps people like you and me, who literally are the church. We were strong enough to keep the government in check. The responsibility of the church in all aspect aspects of governance. Able to deny the government the authority to legalize homosexual marriages. How can the church be a influence for God, when even some churches are sanctioning homosexual behavior. Even going so far as to ordain homosexual clergy. When God’s prohibition against homosexuality is not questionable. It is clerarly recorded in Leviticus 20:13, that such behavior is an abomination and worthy of death. Here are the exact words, “If a man lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.” Their blood against them; and with blood being the source of life, suggesting that such abominable decadency will be passed on to succeeding generations. Which is certainly visible in America today, and with such abominations being worthy of death. As the nations stature as a world leader, with prosperity for its citizens, disappears. Wake up America, and do some serious thinking. Is this what you want for yourself and your family? If not condemn what God condemns by your actions.

At one time the union of American states was unanimous in its stand against homosexuality. But, one by one states are falling victim to what God condemns. Thank God that the people of California and Florida, who have prevailed by denying the government the authority to condone what God condemns. Join the battle to keep it that way. As you know the battle has reemerged in California through the court, as God’s enemies attempt to deny the peoples wishes. Join the battle and condemn what God condemns! May God be gracious to us by raising up the sleeping church to take its rightful role as the inhibitors of all state evils.

The other departure, without question is the matter of abortions. We have recorded for us this sacred prohibition. “Thou shall not kill,” Exodus 20:13. What God is addressing here is intentional murder. Just because the government says *Abortions Are Legal* that does not make them legal from God’s perspective. And from the perspective of his church, his agent to oppose state evil.

Remember the infamous, Dr. George Tiler, tagged as “Tiler the baby killer,” executed on a Sunday for the children yet to be born. Repeatedly taking babies from their mother’s womb. Mother’s in their third trimester of their pregnancy. At a time when life is viable outside of the mother’s womb. When this occurs it is murder, even when the government declares it is not murder. Roe v Wade did not set aside God’s law!

State sponsored abortions represents complex issues that do not always present themselves with easy answers. Perhaps some abortions are necessary for many reasons beyond the scope of this posting. But all abortions, when preformed out of convenience, for any and all parties represents a violation of God’s law, “You will not kill.”

So what about the accused, Scott Roedr, the suspect charged with the killing of Dr. Tiler. Did he break God’s law, “You shall not kill?” Not necessarily, if the killing represents a justifiable killing. For Mr. Roedr, it doesn’t matter because the state is prosecuting the case without the influence of the church. Again the church needs to step up, and make itself heard, and felt. For now, Mr. Roedr will be vilified and Dr. Tiler amplified as a martyr.

Those of us, who name Jesus Christ as our Savior are caught between two worlds. For us, the Obama government represents the other world, which we have no obligation to honor, let alone to obey. One of our duties is is to prepare for the coming of the Kings of Kings, Jesus Christ, who will reign from Jerusalem. Whose world is our world. And while preparing for that world, as has been said else where in this, we oppose state evil, as did Mr. Roedr. Make no mistake because those who live that way will be martyred, as was Stephen in Acts 7. He accused the authorities of being killers, Acts 7:52-53. They felt betrayed, verse 54, as would the Obama government today. And they stoned Stephen, but Stephen prayed, verses 59-60. And finally, Stephen knelt down and prayed with a loud voice. “Lord lay not this [murder] sin to their charge. And when he had said this he fell asleep,” verse 60. Perhaps that will be the fate of Scott Roedr for defending God’s law. For after all, he lived in a world foreign to him.

There you have it, “The Begotten Strange Children.” The behavior of treachery offensive to God. Representing just a couple of departures from his recorded counsel in our scriptures. With consequences certain, already emerging upon our national scene.
