That Bitter Scroll

Part of the Jesuit Oath; I furthermore promise and declare that I will, when opportunity present, make and wage relentless war, secretly or openly, against all heretics, Protestants and Liberals, as I am directed to do, to extirpate and exterminate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex or condition; and that I will hang, waste, boil, flay, strangle and bury alive these infamous heretics, rip up the stomachs and wombs of their women and crush their infants’ heads against the walls, in order to annihilate forever their execrable race. That when the same cannot be done openly, I will secretly use the poisoned cup, the strangulating cord, the steel of the poniard or the leaden bullet, regardless of the honor, rank, dignity, or authority of the person or persons, whatever may be their condition in life, either public or private, as I at any time may be directed so to do by any agent of the Pope or Superior of the Brotherhood of the Holy Faith, of the Society of Jesus.

Jesuit Pope currently in Vatican City, having deposed and “retired” the other Pope.  What does this mean folks, who are the Jesuits, why would they take such and oath?  Well let’s investigate and hold on to your seats folks because the ride is truly bumpy, especially when you awakened to find yourself moving along at warp 3.

If the Jesuits were disbanded by the Pope in 1773, how did they start Georgetown University in 1789?  Two years coincidentally before the beginning of our nation’s capital by the same people who donated the land for D.C.  I don’t know folks, I try and try to put things in order without thinking that it smells fishy, but frankly it is the same thing as the Illuminati claiming their beginning date in America of May 1, 1776, right before our Declaration of Independence.  Father, is it time for this information to become public so that we may see that the Vatican, The Corporations and Monarchs are all working together toward this one world order predicted in Daniel and Revelation?  Is it a coincidence that they are all holding the Title’s, Label’s, Laws and Coats of Arms of the Roman Empire?

Lord God may we stand in courage and with all our faith placed firmly in Your Promises.  Lord although we see the light shining upon this enemy that is apparently conquering the world without arrows in his quiver, we know the outcome is Your Triumphant Return for judgment and reign.  We thank you for showing us these indications of the times in which find ourselves and we are joyfully keeping our eyes skyward for that Glorious moment of Your Return.  In Your Precious Name we pray.  Jesus, Come Soon, Please.

 

Habits

How do I face each day, ritually?  Do I do the same things each morning I rise, taking time to turn up the heat, start the coffee, brush teeth, put on clothes and prepare to meet the day?  Then, I look to clock, maybe check my email, catch the headlines, answer vmails, discord, other forms of communication and begin to ponder my day.  That clock again, beckoning that time is short and I have to tidy things up and get out the door.  Oh, what the heck I don’t have time to read the Bible, chat with God or sit here in meditation upon The Goodness of His Word.

Considering that David made tremendous mistakes each time he went into his day without first convening with the Lord for direction, do I really want to start each day this way without first spending time with God?  I mean God did call David a man after his own heart, right?  Why then would such a man make decisions that weren’t first checked against God’s Will?  I don’t know, we will have to ask him when we meet him following rapture.  However, I am certain it had to do with two things, service to self and second, bad habits.

How do I know what God wants?  Easy, are your choices consistent with His Word?  Are your choices tested in prayer, giving time to listen for God’s feedback through fellowship?  And finally, are your decisions consistent with the Holy Spirit’s voice inside your head and heart?  If those three are not in the affirmative then you ought be concerned about the day into which you are headed.  The Lord wants us to walk with Him, to be dependent upon Him for everything, that includes for those rebel few of you, making decisions or starting your day.  If you find yourself accommodating the Bible, prayer or the Holy Spirit’s voice with the few seconds you have left after everything else has been attended, the IS GOD IN FIRST POSITION IN YOUR LIFE?  If he isn’t don’t you think that it would be best, right now, to make an adjustment to your daily rituals to give Him the rightful position that He deserves and commands?

I pray that the Lord leads you into each and every thought, word, action and dream throughout this day and every other.  In Jesus’ Name.

Unsettled

They speak of our enslavement to the Oligopoly, Religious Empire as it is “settled” law.  Law written by the hand of man, bishops twisting the authority given by God to do what is unrighteous in His Name, snickering, fooling and capturing the masses with their supposed leverage from God.  But there are other Words, Words recorded by the hand of man, but forged of Spirit.  These Words say that all men are free before God and this freedom is not under the influence, purview or authority of governors, but in God Himself.  How then must we justify this indifference this ambiguity, this incongruity of Law?  Not one Jot or tittle will pass away.  They must understand that just because they have assembled in secret and passed what they feel is sufficient verbiage determined to support their enduring empire, they have now crossed swords with the Creator.  And that is a fight to which they have brought the incorrect weaponry.

What brings men to achieve over millennium what their wars and fear could not conquer?  The Lust.  The lust for power, money and history, history written by them, about their glory, for the fulfillment of their quest for infamy. How does a man justify the death by starvation, poison, slavery, hardship or illness of men in their care simply for the sake of personal increase, except by the prostitution of historical fact?  None shall be remembered in favor for leading their men, women and children to poverty, death and shame without contorting the historic facts penned for humanity’s reflection.  That is why they have owned the printing presses and the language devices for the length of man’s educated history.  He who owns the pen and paper owns the right to record his version of history.  Even now, look to my words as they express the Truth of my enduring Freedom before God.  For in this moment I express my true God given right to leave my version of our current state.  Why, not to be remembered, but to sponsor the independence of other men that they too might rise against this false Empire and stand whatever their fate for the Name of Almighty God.

We are not sentences to be settled by their version of scribed or perturbed rhetoric.  We are men, created in the image of God, loved by God, existing for His Good Pleasure and Plan.  I did not come and stake my claim to this life and its character, something for which I am the sole arbiter and authority, so that the wealth of the wicked might be increased by my thoughts, ideas or sweaty brow.  I belong to God, no one else.  Since America was given its rights by God then no man or group of such may determine in their bequeathed authority to dissolve that which was given by God.  It is beyond them, it is beyond the pale of the “settlement”, a thing outside of the Scribe’s punctuation or capacity to contain within parentheses.  We are free and by nature freedom is a wild thing, contained only by Man’s resemblance to Almighty God and a willingness to live together with all in harmony and mutual surety.

 

Before Hand

The days ahead a fraught with difficulty, tragedy and arduous circumstance.  Considering we are entering into a time preceding the return of Christ, have you steeled your mind, body and spirit to what may be asked of you?  Basically, are you ready?  Not just have you done the work that the Lord has set aside for you and you aside for, or the filling of the Spirit to the point where you have “oil in your lamp”, if the Lord returns in darkness.  Rather, are you ready to face the persecution, separation and coming focus on globalism, as the world waits for their messiah, the anti Christ, to deliver them from poverty, abstinence and God’s inevitable judgment.  You know they hunger to indulge themselves and unfortunately they see us as the restraining element to their unbridled celebration.

You don’t have to trust me, look to history for the proof.  Throughout the ages, the righteous few were always persecuted as entertainment for the wicked.  That is until God always stepped in and delivered/restored and provided for them.  Remember the Lord said that we would have troubles here, he said that they would revile us, lock us up, hate us for His sake.  This world is waiting for their “age of Aquarius moment, where stars align, druids worship the heavenly bodies, Aquarian’s arise, interesting that they just put out a movie where the Aqua Man is called the one true king.  Don’t you see it lining up for them to have the governors taken off the engine of the lust for unending sinful fulfillment.  He will deliver upon that desire, but only for a brief time then they will see the true serpent, the Lord rebuke him if he chooses to do so.  Look, the Arch Angel Michael wouldn’t even speak ill of him, instead allowing God to rebuke him.  I am certainly not going to venture into that category of prideful declaration.  Just look to history and you will see what awaits us if the Lord’s tarries.  Maranatha.

The simple truth is each of us knows if we are ready or if we are not.  Will you take the moment to face that choice each of us must make for readiness for the future coming our direction at blinding velocity?  This is the time to do so.  It is like putting on the flame retardant suit before entering the furnace or the chains on our rig before crossing the pass, it must be done BEFORE hand.  So now is the time, do you have an answer upon which to take action, for take action you must or be caught up in the deception that is coming soon from the worldly messiah of anti Christ.

I pray for your clarity, Spirit Filling and readiness in the Great Name of Our Returning King, Jesus Christ the Lord of All.  Amen.

Are you?

Do you tell yourself you will do whatever it takes having never tasted the fear and dissatisfaction of failed intent?  Do you embark in word battles with grand capacity for impression but balk at wielding the Spirit of God’s separating steel?  Is the enemy outside your gates searching for inroads, waiting for you to suffer the fiery darts, or is he already clinging to the walls of your sanctuary having been graciously provided the foot holds of your unrequited sin?  Are you reserving your surrender for when conquered by the enemy’s intrigue or have you duly surrendered to the Righteous King?  The battle rages.  You may concern yourself elsewhere, ignore the foray or join the fray, but let us not remain persons in an act depicting a moment in reality.  Let us be alive in the hands of Almighty God, standing for what is Right and True.

My nonsense makes sense when used as camouflage, excuse or courage repellent.  In a dream I saw myself stepping forward when God beckoned, my booted steps, counting time to the march of my beating heart.  Readied, I plodded on into darkness, carrying the Light of God within that pounding heart.  My thoughts were of home, of His Face, of mansions waiting and time spent with those who understood love.  But then I woke and found that my dream did not match the real me, a clouded man, mistaken, hypocritical and brave in the back rooms of my own audience.  What then of that man that the Lord crafted, the transformed man, the new creature I’d become?  Was he lost or yet unfound?

This is the time for awakened purpose.  If to fight then to the field of battle, questioned answered, hearts resolved and circumstances or outcomes left to the day.  If to support then to the trucks and tables for service of them who brave that battlefield where victory waits.  If to thought and prayer then time for the bent knee, pouring out our spirit filled cries with language of the inner man, lifted faithfully to the waiting ears of God.  There is no more time for stories told, or retold memories of yesteryear.  For history matters not.  This is the day for which time has waited.  This is the parchment upon which history will reside.  This is the time, are you the man God created for this time?  Be that and more in the Hand of God.  Today.  In Jesus’ Name.

Wandering

Perchance may we take a wondering ramble down the unpaved streets of my not so intriguing thought process.  A – God could rid the universe of evil, dissolving sin and remaking the world, once again in perfect reflection of His image.  B – To do so would probably destroy all of us, since we have in us the seeds of evil intent that once germinated becomes full blown sin.  For those who don’t see themselves as evil please refer to Romans 3:23, where it is clearly established that there is not one of us righteous.  C – In destroying us the enemy would prevail by making God admit that his creation was fallible in that the enemy could institute the seeds of evil and man, being basically a failed creation would bring down the world themselves.  D – God Won this fight before it began, giving us the free will to make awful mistakes but also to make the choice of wanting Him over everything else utilizing that same gift of free will.  E – Heaven Bound.

However, that doesn’t explain why God needs us to share the Word of Truth.  Horrible realization of the awful truth is He doesn’t.  Needing and loving us are two entirely different things.  Remember He asked Job where he was when God created everything.  He set Job straight that God doesn’t need us it is the other way around, WE NEED HIM.  I would say desperately if it were the appropriate time, Oh wait it is the appropriate time, so DESPERATELY.  So, if He doesn’t need me what do I do with the idea that He has a purpose for my life?  Good Question.  I take a stab it though you will certainly have to go to God through the Holy Spirit to get anything other than my conjecture.  He Loves.  He Loves us so deeply that like any Good Father, He wants us to make good in life, but being that same Good Father, He knows that we will never do good without being given the choice to do wrong as well.  You see it is in the choice that we are made whole, our character achieved our battle’s won.  Without the choice there is no war.  Therefore, He knew everything the enemy would ever do, every thought, every act, every wicked act, yet He still created him.  Did you ever stop to wonder, why?

We are all necessary, the enemy’s prideful fall from heaven was necessary to allow the other angels to choose God, FREE WILL.  The enemy’s prideful act was instructive, that some men choose evil and many refrain, but all have been tainted by its poison intent.  A saviour was not just the gift, the saviour is a necessary gift, for there is no other way by which man might be cleansed of the seed of unrighteousness, except through a sacrifice.  In this case the sacrifice of someone, someone who chose to live a perfect life and give His life for the rest of us, that we might be cleansed, repair, redeemed and made whole.  That person was none other than God himself, stepping into the material plane, because of His Love for us.  We couldn’t save ourselves so He came and suffered the enemy’s chastisement, the best swing the enemy had in him, and God prevailed.  Jesus was that Saviour, that Sacrifice, That Man to save all humanity, through Free Will choice of God’s Will over his own.  Demonstrating to us that God didn’t need us but He sure did love us.

In Jesus’ Holy Name.

Assured

Freedom, joy, courage, character, Love, direction, peace, wisdom, understanding, surety, confidence, reason, fellowship, family, purpose, cleansing, character, strength, wealth, health, faith, support, relationship, depth, hope, quality, consistency, knowledge, insight, discernment, should I continue with the benefits of knowing Christ?

And I am willing to bet that you have a list as long or greater than my own of those positive effects of your relationship with the Lord through Jesus.  Considering the overwhelming positivity available to each of us how then could we even for a moment have a negative outlook concerning our place in this world or the next?  How is it possible that a Christian could be depressed for any reasonable length of time?  I mean we all get down because of the emotions surrounding negative events, but they should subside and they aren’t is there perhaps a larger difficulty?

When we are imbued with the aspects of the Holy Spirit and the benefits of surety associated with complete dependence on a Holy and Righteous God who promised he would never leave, then we become powerful as humans.  Yes, I said it we become powerful humans.  We are a peculiar people who laugh in the face of overwhelming challenges and have courage in the midst of chaos and empathy for those in difficulty, sickness or approaching death.  For we understand the implications of life and consequently death that faces each of us.  That knowledge again makes us an asset in worldly affairs.  Wait I thought we are not supposed to be in the world because we are not of the world?  Why do you think we are here, then?

If we are having a hard time with this live under the protection, provision and persistent promises of Almighty God, then how hard a time do you believe that unbelievers are having.  Sin is no fun, it ruins the man or woman behind its mask.  They know that, it is just that they don’t know anything different.  Well guess what, Glory be to God that He has designated us the mouthpiece of that wisdom to set them all free.  If you are sitting there enjoying the fruits of your relationship with God then honor Him and those gifts by discipling to every one you can.  If you are depressed then maybe you ought to review the list of positive gifts above, or perhaps make your own.  If you don’t know Christ then I wish you would listen to one of us so that you too can live that assured life in this world and the next.  In Jesus’ Name I pray.

This Day

Do you hear them proclaiming the Lord’s glory with every single chirp, warble and tweet.  Listen carefully to the song, all day long they tell us “God is wonderful”, “God is great” in their proclamation of thanks for the warmth, the water and the berries, nectar of the vine and flower.  How then do you perceive my song Lord?  Do I sing stanzas, cantatas and harmonies, lifting up your name for the ages to behold?  Do I give praise to all your characteristic blessings indelibly inked upon my heart?  Do I fumble through the litany of available words finding them inadequate to describe your Glory and my abashed representation or lack thereof?  If not worshiping God what then does my song include?

Sing to the Lord with all your might, power and passion.  Not carrying a tune but created a prayer, something similar to the crucial cry of the nightbird hawk.  How wonderful your pitch, perfect for the reason within the season, smelling of sweet cinammon and curried butter carried on the wind of the mornings calm.  Let me hear your heart, not just the words residing in the lobes of cranium, but the mysteries expressed only by the inner workings of hopeful spirit.  “I Love You Lord”.  And that love carries me, drives me, twisted and turned by the unseen breeze of Spirit’s call to fall deeply for you each day and dream of you at night.  You are the light, you are worthy of each and every fight, you are sight for the blind, salve for the worried mind, and faith for the friendless.  You are the call at dawn, the reason we are risen, forgiven, praising, is You.

For all that you are and that even which I cannot comprehend, I send my love in song, the voice of my heart, which your Spirit alone may convey, this day for You my King.  This day for you.

Not so loud

It was a really beautiful drive there, I went the rural route so it took me much longer.  It was a little dark by the time I got there, I had a lot of time before my event.  It was nice around, and relaxing to be like-minded people.  I often feel like I am at an attorney’s office, especially when I have a question to ask, especially when you don’t want them to hear it your privacy is gone.  I met many acquaintances that may become friends, it was nice because I don’t have anyone that wants to talk about Q.

Let me tell you about my friend.  A friend who loves you when the day is long and the song is perhaps a bit sad.  A person that reaches in to their meager circumstances and always finds the right gift.  A friend who prays for you even when you fail to listen.  A friend who loves even the silliness, the cheesiness and the bulldozer usage of words.  A friend who won’t stop loving you even when perhaps there is no reason for love.  Let me tell you about someone who hurts when you hurt, who angers at the things that bring fury to your heart, a friend who stands when you stand against against all odds.  Should I tell you about such a friend so that you might have hope that you might experience the same in your life and be as blessed as I have been to have my friend.  I think I should.

Lord let me be in the moment so that I might act appropriately for each of these saints you’ve given me.  Lord, let me escape my rash verbiage and understand the intricacies of modulation and the frequencies of gentleness and harmony.  Don’t let me always be the party crasher, because sometimes it is better to just give them the invitation you received in the mail.  Father, I want to be like you, not like me.  Give me that gift of removing me from me, so that I might honor these blessings you’ve bestowed upon my life and heart.  I am a grateful man. In Jesus’ Name.

The Dream

Father, I ask you to break the chains that bind me to those to whom I have offered leverage in my life.  For I cannot serve you freely bound by those responsibilities which do respect and revere you as my only Master, for I cannot serve two.  You alone are my King, not my house, my job, my friends, my church, my dog or my easy weekends.  I love many of them but cannot both serve their voices, their charge for my life and stay upon the skinny path you have lain before me.  Free me from that which I have been incapable of escaping so that I might serve in totality of heart, mind, body, soul and spirit.

This world continues to provide baited hooks, the sweet smells, visions and tastes of plenty, beckoning me to bite and be pulled from the rivers pulse to reside in a bucket til slaughter.  The call of pleasant bounty reside always around the bend for my collection, calling me forward toward a mythical point beyond my field of vision.  The tender whispers of intimacy promising comfort, safety and peace.  These are the things that speak the voice of my wounded man, leading me away from your provision of health, wealth and power to a diminished capacity of worldly consumption.  From these things I would be free.

Father, I know that the simple life of which I dream is a thing of mystery and deceit.  It promises a life of complacency, ease and little requirement and even though I know these things to be snares, they still capture my waking and dreaming thought.  How is that something we know to be untrue may continue to have some manner of attraction as to sideline saints or lull disciples into apathy?  Father give me singular focus and vision that keeps your face, your Height, Depth and Breadth fixed in my vision.  For all there is, is You.  You Are.  In Jesus’ Name.
