Every Knee Will Bend

Christians are familiar with the words that describe the moment when all mankind is confronted with the power of Christ’s appearance. Bowing the head, bending the knee, and confessing that Jesus Christ is Lord over all, happens on judgment day, the end of everything earthly.

Til that day it’s all voluntary. We can choose to acknowledge Jesus as the Lord of our lives. However, other gods aren’t quite so congenial or willing to let the inhabitants of this earth be so dismissive of their authority. The chief rival for the all-powerful god is none other than, Allah and his sidekick Muhammad. Depending on which sect of Islam you live under, there are varying degrees of patience given to unbelievers they proselytize.

Allah, the obvious leader in the “other god race”, is not so lenient awaiting you to bend your knee, bow your head, and confess that Allah is god. We see this exhibited in the United Kingdom. Muhammad has become the most popular name given to children. Most of the important cities have Muslim mayors even though Muslims make up just 6.5 % of the population. Muslim rape gangs take advantage of young girls and are protected from “discrimination” by the government. Indeed, Great Britain has committed cultural suicide, all to satisfy “woke” soulless evil men submitting to Allah, the woke god.

In the United States Muslims represent a little over one percent of the population. So we are ten years behind Britain in Islamic occupation but we are well on our way in our willful rejection of Jesus Christ. Our constitution was created out of allegiance to Christ. People moved to America for religious freedom which is contrary to Islamic teaching. Our constitution is incompatible with the teachings of Islam as it is based on Christian values. After a little research, it becomes apparent that Allah is taking over the world.

X (formerly Twitter) is a great place to monitor world events. Freely posting videos is great, although one is always confronted with scenes you didn’t want to admit happened. In a country where we pursue happiness, we often ignore the danger which may undermine that privilege.

Bangladesh, 91% Muslim, pretty well describes life when Allah is your “best” choice in gods. Imagine an eleven-year-old Hindu girl (child) being ridiculed, taunted, and pushed around by followers of the all-powerful and gracious Allah. After their fun and games, they took her to the river a few steps away and drowned her.

Jesus stands at the door and knocks; it’s up to you to let Him in. Allah? He’ll knock your door down and make you wish you were his follower. He demands you to bow your head, bend your knee, and shout, “Allah hu Akbar”, Allah is great. If we are Christian we are to refuse and therefore accept the punishments of this menacing monster.

The children of Israel didn’t bend, they didn’t bow, they didn’t burn. We must preach the gospel even to evil, unsavory Islamic tyrants. There’s plenty of history showing God not protecting His children from harm. We must be willing to pay the price of carrying the cross of Jesus Christ. Allah is not a god of love; he is a god of submission. Our God is a god of love, not willing that any should perish, but come to repentance. Our choice, a god of fear or a god of love.

When Your Church Dies

Our church is closing in late April. We received an email informing us all that financially the church can no longer continue. We had the dreaded sermon on tithing a couple of months ago. This resulted in our pastor telling us the following week offerings were way up. Apparently, this did not continue. Our pastor also told us he and his wife were going to Greece for two weeks.

Pastor has said he wants to retire so, he’s been interviewing a possible replacement over the past year, even having one deliver the message once. Just a couple months ago he said he interviewed another pastor but to no avail.

What puzzles us is simply this, if the ship is sinking (this had to be known some time ago), why is a replacement being sought for a new pastor? Perhaps it was hard to accept the reality of the situation. Our pastor, through no fault of his own, lost his last church to the whims of Methodist corporate meddling. The pain of our church passing from the scene must be somewhat disheartening. Maybe it’s not so much retirement he wanted, but a desire not to be at the helm when the ship goes under.

We can’t know the hearts and minds of people placed in a tight place. What would I do? I can pretend to know and radically espouse it, but heroes are made in a moment, not before the event. So let’s not judge; that, after all, is the prerogative of God. Grace and mercy are what we say we’re about. Can we practice what we preach?

The Thief in the Night

We believers are all acquainted with that phrase. Nighttime thieves are aware of one important thing: you are likely sleeping, so you are not prepared to respond in time to prevent the theft. It’s a surprise of the worst kind.

Jesus said He will come like a thief in the night. He’s not coming to steal what is not His but is taking those who are ready to go. We are persecuted worldwide for believing in Christ.

The world will wake up on that day knowing something terrible has occurred. Two shall be in a bed, one taken the other left behind. Two shall be working, one taken, the other left behind. The world will know exactly what has happened and what it means for their future.

So what’s the important thing? We must be ready. If we know about the thief breaking in, we would prepare to meet Him. Preparation is everything. Is Jesus Christ the love of our life? Are we ready at a moment’s notice to steal us away to the wedding? We are a bride, held in bondage in a foreign land, and we are waiting, hopefully preparing every day for His return, His rescue. We do not know what time he’s coming, but we better remain aware. We do not know when He will return. However, we’d better be sleeping with our shoes on.

When we all get to Heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be! When we all see Jesus, we’ll sing and shout the victory!

Me and My Shadow

Reflecting on what is common to almost every man, we men have a shadow following us. This shadow is unlike the one we see the sun give us, reflecting our every move. The “shadow” I’m speaking of is sinister, selfish, always nudging us to make unproductive and possibly evil decisions.

As men, we are followed twenty-four-seven by this “shadow” which whispers and then eventually shouts in our ears. Who is this bully and why is it so hard to resist his growling? It is the penis, that appendage with so much seeming promise but many times delivers misery after one succumbs to its power.

What you say?

Sex is undoubtedly man’s drug of choice. It’s built-in, programmed to defeat a reasonable mind; an enemy posing as our best friend. This sounds absurd I know. God created man to tend the garden. He said it’s not good that man is alone so from Adam he made Eve. Obviously, by design, they were to recreate themselves; they weren’t to remain alone on planet Earth. Children were a planned outcome of their creation.

Apparently, Eve’s ability to conceive was regulated differently before they fell into disobedience. However, I believe Adam and Eve had sex and enjoyed that satisfying connection. Being created weaker than Adam, Eve fell for the deception of Satan. Being Adam was the one in charge of doing God’s commandments, it was up to Adam to do the will of God. Apparently, Eve quickly learned the power she had over Adam via his penis. She brought the temptation to sin before Adam and I believe enticed him into submitting to sin by the promise of a good time sexually.

Eve lured Adam to her side promising a good time if he would just bend the rules. So many bad decisions and bad marriages have happened because of the relentless prodding of the penis. This is why sex is the source of so many of the cruelest, most brutal crimes. You see, Adam chose sex over the Word of God and obeying God. He had chosen to believe his wife over God. And what did God say? Because you have listened to your wife, you’ll both be thrown out of the Garden of Eden. Sex can lead to disobedience and sex so often leads to sin.

This doesn’t mean you should never listen to your wife, it just means weigh her advice against the Word of God. This is why we must “wash” our wives in the Word. By doing so, couples understand what God requires. Adam quickly blamed Eve for the sin. “The woman You gave me” argument didn’t fly then and it doesn’t fly now. Men are to be in control of their bodies and their minds; they aren’t.

So that nasty, little appendage has become man’s “god”. Man will do most anything for his penis. Rape, whether a baby, child or a woman in there nineties, no problem. Murder for sex? Story after story could be told. The penis has the capacity to be the instrument to create life but that is not it’s over-riding mission; it’s sex for the sake of power. Men’s unchecked power is what’s wrong with our world; that’s what’s wrong with men.

Men will get together with women solely for sex. They live with them, have children with them, all for the sake of sex. There’s no becoming one flesh, no desire to please God, just pleasing the penis.

King David said his mother conceived him in sin. Does that mean sex is sin? No, of course not; God designed the human body for sex. It means David’s daddy just had to have sex and he was a byproduct. David was the youngest of eight boys and there were probably a like number of girls. Are large families good? Yes. But we should thoughtfully have children. Resist having more children then your money can support. Don’t naively believe that God will provide everything you need. It is you who are responsible for your children. We don’t need nice houses, automobiles, and all the amenities that a comfortable life requires. But we do need some kind of shelter, food, and transportation that we can afford. And we must be willing able to provide a vision for our children’s future, especially boys. Teach them to depend on God and not the penis for their most important decisions.

To sum it up, we choose between a penis-driven life or a purpose-driven life; and that makes all the difference.

Profit vs Theft

I watched Elon’s rocket take to the air and then, amazing to all of us, return safely to its launch pad. Why hadn’t NASA developed technology like that? Understanding the bureaucracy’s complex requirement to seemingly hinder new concepts, it’s no wonder this idea of recycling rockets ever crossed their minds. It’s a real hassle thinking outside the box.

But, bureaucracy aside, the fundamental reason is obvious. Elon runs a business that demands costs that can’t overrun his ability to cover them. The government doesn’t suffer from demands of efficiency. There is no incentive to save money because whatever they do is covered within a definitive budget. Whatever they lose is covered by the taxpayers.

Elon must make a profit to survive; NASA, like all government-funded enterprises, doesn’t live under the restraints of business. NASA will continue into perpetuity simply because its budget is controlled by a money-printing behemoth. Money the government extracts through taxation or money the government prints, the burden is borne on the shoulders of the public.

This is why the opposition to President Trump’s efficiency push is so immense. Unaccountable government spending has grown to out-of-control budgets that rely on permanent debt increases. Donald Trump is a businessman. Profit and loss matter to him. Balancing a budget is necessary if the country’s survival is important.

Corruption has become a cottage industry in federal and state governments. Those people (citizens and illegal immigrants alike), will cry bloody murder and are likely to become violent. Those who need the theft to continue are angry and if the government nipple is unavailable, they will take it out on us evil taxpayers.

Be armed, alert, and ready. Taking benefits by force may well be the new norm.
