Christianity is not a self-help pursuit. Yes, as in any attempt to transform one’s life there is space for a wide array of committing oneself or volunteering to the changing Hand of God’s Workmanship, but God is Faithful and true to complete the work He once began in each of us. We come to God because of the things we cannot do not because we are looking for a helping hand in massaging our lives into order. That is why the poor have such a propensity to seek God, because without His intervention they most certainly will continue to suffer the ills of their position and misery. This life is designed to prompt us through trial to eventually find God or decide not to seek Him though we know He is there.
As with any construct, dimension or world there is a purpose, a meaning a general flow down the river of existence toward some desired outcome. Since God is the Sovereign of the universe He is the only that gets to assign this divine purpose for the machinery of life. In our world the nature of our pursuits are as follows; God made it all perfect knowing that we would mess it up and into that mix He expelled one of His most powerful angels who had gone bad thinking himself equal or above Almighty. The mystery and the wonder of this entire story is that the world into which we have been injected is entirely in God’s Control, even though he allows things to occur that may appear correctible these influences eventually put all mankind into conflict with the fallen in an apparent contest to see who may come out on top. The problem for the enemy of God is that he has already been defeated when God took human form and stripped him of all power beyond a certain date. Additionally allowing every person who had earned the debt of sin death to be freed by choice through belief and faith.
What we now have is a stage set for the final scenes. Mankind hasn’t listened by and large and perpetuates the same mistakes God warned them not to make and refuses to investigate the escape routes God assigned them. We have become embroiled in the Fallen Casts last rights on their journey to judgment. And instead of walking our own path in wisdom as God has directed we choose to follow the broad road that leads to certain damnation with the fallen. We are a travesty and abomination a sad desperate set of individuals who are choking and hold the remote control to stop the gas and open the windows but we refuse to push the buttons because we don’t want to say that we served anyone but ourselves. Blindly our leaders look for ways through the minefields of our own creation but they will not stop for even one moment publicly and demand that we all seek God’s guidance though all know that is the only path to certain success. It is a gentleman’s folly and a poor man’s boon as those in greatest need will certainly humble themselves and seek God’s assistance rather that suffer for years on end toward an uncertain destiny.
God Loves Us and yes there are things that are horribly wicked in this world. There are dangerous powerful spiritual beings that were given power by God to play a role in this universe to sponsor God’s outcomes and build the coming Kingdom. He has more than fairly provided a way of escape for all men classifying us all as sinners from the outset and giving none an upper hand in the quest for salvation. All are equal before God and all must make a choice to accept His offer of peace and escape the coming judgment or as we are now seeing played out on the world stages fight God and never come to the understanding of the Truth. We must remain in contact with Him and begin to understand through prayer and humility the glorious path He has painted for each of us. I don’t know about you but I am truly tired of fighting God Almighty, I mean the name alone implies a series of hopeless losses which I have regrettably experienced. The shame that comes with continually insisting on following my own will is often too much to bare. I know that I don’t know better than God nor do I have a certain understanding of my purpose and how to fulfill this life in the greatest manner yet I continue to imply that somehow I do. That is preposterous.
I know that you have always thought me foolish, however, you have never been able to resist trying to compete with me and continually coming up on the losing side. What does that say that the idiot is a savant or that you just continue to lose to someone who has no sense. or perhaps, just perhaps the line of love I have been delivering to you each time we meet is the absolute truth and is given you out of love to save you from the worst thing that could ever happen to any man, eternity separated from God in the lake of Fire. I cannot honestly say that anyone could claim to love people and want that outcome for them. God’s Judgment is final. Praise Him that He has given us time here to make the mistakes and make the choice that must be made by all. I pray that you waste no further moments for none are guaranteed. Accept His offer of Grace, end the War with God, be adopted, forgiven, sanctified and transformed. That is what He wants for all men. He loves US ALL
