The hearts of men have grown cold. Love does not dominate any conversation, rhetoric rules in this secular society where it is illegal to teach children of their Maker. They ramble wondering whose argument more effective forgetting that the one option they refuse to look upon is the answer to the dilemma. The fact is that we have lost our moral compass in the nation and we wonder around on ground without a moral foundation based upon things like; goodness, righteousness, justice, faith, peace, love and truth. The one thing that may save us is the only thing upon which we refuse to reflect. Until we have a true committed desire to solve the problems, requiring an open minded review of all the causes, effects and potential solutions then we are doomed to follow paths dictated by intellectuals.
God is the only way to enlightenment, faith, truth and everlasting life. There is no other road by which I may reach heaven except through faith and belief in the Lord Jesus Christ. So simple it took only two sentences to explain the entire truth. Unlike the laws men currently write that need thousands of pages through which legislators hope to “justify” their wisdom, even when they knowingly doubt their own resolution. Faith in God does not require convincing argument or flowery speech, it requires a “heart” knowledge that God is our Creator and that He made the rules for His universe into which we were sown for His purpose. Accepting that resolves a lot but it requires humility and understanding, the humility to understand that we are just players in His Plan. That frightens, angers and paralyzes those who would have it defined any other way.
I do not wish to be in charge. I am a sinner, probably as bad or worse than any other. Left to my own judgment, direction and desire I would make everyone around me stumble and make a mess of my life through pursuit of my own foolish agenda. Sure I trust myself, I trust myself to do the wrong thing unless of course I exercise the only wisdom I possess and rely upon the Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit to give me discernment and direction. See I am a fool just as any other it is just that I am a graduated fool who understands that doing foolish things brings me pain, discomfort, discipline and poverty. Maybe that makes me no longer a fool, but no matter what the label I still “know” in my head and heart that following Jesus and the Word of God’s Bible is the best method by which to live this life and assure a place in eternity, seated at the foot of God’s throne.
Don’t try to convince me of your intelligentsia, utopia or social theorem perfectas, because the divining of man will always by nature be at “most” second best. The number of man is 6 and the number of God is 7. There is a long way in between them, an infinite amount of points according to Aristotle. We can never reach the perfection of God to which pride finds us driven. He came to us to “Reveal” His Glory and Love for the Earth in His plan of redemption for the sins of all mankind. There is no greater story. No other way to Glory. The Lord Jesus Christ, deserving of my praise. Amen
