The distinction between believers and mockers becomes increasingly clear.  Standing on one side of the room as the other side mimics and makes fun while making selections reminds us of those kids who would invariably be chosen last for any sports team.  Or perhaps that were ridiculed until they quit and went off alone to join the ranks of the disenfranchised.  This moment in time is inevitable.  I found myself in one of those epiphany moments about God’s plan instantaneously knowing that every person who will ever come to God will come at exactly the right timing.  Without fail the sides are being separated not for unkind purpose, but because they are just plain different.  They serve different God’s, think different thoughts, seek different answers and are fulfilled by two totally different reward philosophies.  The people of this world will inevitably turn against us because not to do so would be illogical and denial of honest emotions the two guardrails for earthly behavior.

I love them so, not admiring their wickedness or their wealth and status, but because they were so loved by God that He extended them Grace.  What thoughts can I ever have that would invalidate God’s thinking?  He saw them worthy of sacrifice and an attempt lasting millennia, then they must have been worth the trouble.  No assuming just accepting.  Things are the way that they are because God created them and gave us the free will to mess them up, then He came and provided the Divine Methodology to return them to His original intention.  Only somehow we were improved in the process through His sacrifice and our struggle to wrestle our wretched little selves free from self, sin and satan.  In the process finding that it was hopeless from the outset if in fact our only course of action was dependence on our own abilities.  No God did it all, even providing each of us the knowledge, strength and courage necessary to choose Him when the time aroused us.  Yes all that will ever have a heart to come to Him will do so at the precise necessary timing.  And when the last of them has surrendered, then He will come.  Until then we wait, learn and love as He would have us do.  Praise Almighty God, in the name of Jesus the Messiah.  Amen.
