What is so difficult to believe?  Do I have to connect in my imagination, my mind’s eye, within data points, the myriad of stepping stones leading to a logical, inescapable conclusion?  Does this in fact diminish belief at all, removing the content or quality of faith by presenting an unanimous argument, for which none may cogently disagree?  Must we become bereft of decision making, having imposed belief handed down for all to accept involuntarily?  Shall my thoughts be solely determined by a tyrant king or am I so precious to my Creator that He allows me to come to my own conclusions, and in so doing feel empowered in my faith?

Shall I simply bow down to the big lie strategy, embraced by hitler’s propagandists, just because the mantra has been repeated loud enough, long enough that it takes on what is perceived as inevitable truth?  Have I become so saturated by false argument that I have forgotten to question the seemingly obvious conclusion I have been told must be true?  What sort of life is this?  It is the false ideology being pushed upon our youth by those we have allowed control and ownership of our authorities, our leaders and our educators.  We have effectively left the devil at the helm hoping he will do anything but divide and conquer.  What else should we expect?  Aloof is a strategy that guarantees eventual failure through capitulation.

God offers Grace, accepted or declined by free will choice, breeding self-acceptance, commitment and agreement in Truth.  Certainly historic men and women have effectively attempted to hijack this perfect relationship and superimpose their own constructs leading to greater human enslavement.  Look now at some faith being spread by men intent on conquest.  This is not the will of any God that I might follow in good conscience.  This is deception perpetrated by the clever hearts of evil people, usurping direction given by a Holy and Righteous God to achieve the ego maniacal goals of would be emperors and czars.  Stirring up the desperation of miserable people, promising escape from a reality they find too hard to tolerate.  Channeling their anger, much as did hitler and turning them loose on their true enemy, those who follow Almighty God.  For they cannot hope to defeat the Creator and in this accepted impotence they are left with the only alternative to slaughter the innocent, laughing at God’s tears for those martyred.  Men cannot force their way into Heaven no matter their effort, strategy, cleverness or disregard for Holiness.  Actions always have consequence and in this case though judgment has been delayed that does not invalidate its eventual righteous, perfect and just dispensation.

Can I succeed if God does not Will that success?  Conversely, may I fail if God commands and supports my achievement?  See, these are simple concepts, understood by any child, having accepted their need and constraint by parental authority.  When we turn away from this truth we must then as Romans 1 indicates, be turned over to our own decadence.  And every one of us understands the implications of self-constructed reality.  We have all seen people who must maintain informational control on everyone within their sphere of consciousness, attempting to protect the house of cards they’ve constructed.  No child must be allowed to speak of the emperor’s nakedness or the mirrors are shattered leaving the construct swiftly imploding.  This alternative explanation for the origin of man shall not succeed for it is an invention of man.  This mankind long drive for one emperor to control the movements, wealth, thoughts and doctrine for all men shall never succeed for there has always only ever been one True King.  Man shall never solve man’s problems because man created all of them.  Only success in line with God’s Will for mankind is perpetually achievable.  Think on it, though men have convinced themselves they could conquer the world, has anyone ever done so?  They all died at some point following or during their attempt leaving chaos and destruction in their wake.  Some men may turn to powers and principalities of the air seeking to release themselves from the reality of God seeking a fulfillment of their own making, but even satan who supports them has never succeeded in preventing, avoiding, delaying or operating outside of God’s Will for humanity.  Their is no success in a world that violates the construct of its Creator.

Must I reduce my capacity to understand to a point where even the ample evidence of God is inconceivable?  No, that reduction is only temporary resolution.  For I may have a veil lowered, eclipsing my vision, but at some point reality always finds its way back into my sight.  That reality is the death that all men must face, it is the great equalizer bringing us back into line with consciousness.  All men seek to live forever, some by their own will and others by God.  It just seems plausible to me that God made us so He is the only one capable of providing the avenue by which we achieve the in-achievable.  It is simple logic to me that it is easier to put aside my rebellion and work with a God who loves me then to ignore, compete or fight against the authority of His inevitable and unavoidable Will.  That is why this generation will only be given the sign that was given to Jonah.  What was that sign, that if God has a purpose for your life, you can run, you can hide or you can become frustrated over what cannot or should not be avoided, but God will bring you to the very same place doing the very same thing He had commanded you do in the first place.  Even satan will be brought to that point of kneeling and confessing that Jesus Christ is Lord.  Some do it now some later, but all will face the same inevitable and plausible Truth of God.
