Holding the Truth in Unrighteousness

In John 18:38, Pontius Pilate asks, “What is truth?”

Truth is a set of universal and everlasting laws that can never be defeated or denied, though men will always try.

There is only one God and one everlasting set of laws, which come through our Lord Jesus Christ. Proclaiming His name is to acknowledge absolute truth in the universe.

There are some who refer to his, her, or your truth as if the laws of God could be changed to suit our every lust and desire. They deny their conscience thinking it's virtuous, but in reality it leads to death.

Our conscience is the connection to God. Some of us follow it while others split off into the ways of the world.

For those who are lost, there is always time to acknowledge absolute truth and to come back to God. For those of us whose souls are saved, it’s our duty to defend truth until our deaths.

If we hold the truth in our hearts and souls, then we have a duty to follow the laws of God, rather than directions from fellow mortals (i.e. governments, experts, media).

But if we hold the truth in unrighteousness, and attempt to justify our actions, then we should expect to receive God's wrath in the end. This is the death of the soul.

It's never too late to repent.

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness…” Romans 1:18

Believing is Seeing

“And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.” Luke 1:45

“Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou has seen me, thou has believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.” John 20:29

“Jesus answered and said unto him, “Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believst thou? Thou shalt see greater things than these.” John 1:50

Conventional wisdom says “seeing is believing” but the poetic irony throughout the gospels is that believing is seeing.

The more the Pharisees see of Jesus healing the sick and raising the dead, the less they believe. While the lowly disciples, without any promises of great miracles, inevitably see more than they anticipated. It's these disciples who wholeheartedly believe and serve God, that please him the most.

The Lord wants us to take him at his Word, which is the Bible. The power of the Bible is the proof that we can place our trust in the Him because he is the way the truth and the life.

Here is a tip that we hope will benefit your prayer life: If you are having trouble understanding the Bible or God's works in this world, you can always ask the Lord for more faith.

War All of the Time

“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars…”

Matthew 24:6

Every massive scam must be followed by a war in order to cloud the details of the massive scam. The best example from this generation is the war in Iraq that followed the destruction of the triple towers on 9/11.

The media, at the government’s direction, shifts from one fear campaign to the next, so that the public never has enough time to think on the carnage that the government caused.

Today we have a staged plague being followed up by a conflict in Russia and Ukraine. And once again, the oligarchs have decided the moral stance on this matter for their constituents, customers, employees and students alike: Support for Ukraine is support for democracy!

Public opinion is manufactured through media suggestion and the raising of Ukrainian flags and suddenly the left and the right find themselves agreeing on who the enemy is. First invisible germs and now Russians.

As long as we stay tuned into this media production, we will continue to be led into bondage. The only way forward is to unplug from this matrix of violence and plug into the Word of God.

“Ye shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.”

Deuteronomy 5:32

We must not participate or take sides in these hunger games. Both sides serve the cold-bloods who seek total control through global governance.

Ukraine serves the order by sheltering dirty deals for politicians and their relatives. Russia serves the order by crumbling the West. The result is always innocent bloodshed and the curtailing of human freedom.

There is no benefit to common folk by supporting either side. Our anger and attention should be fully focused on the cold-bloods who attempt to order the world in their own image rather than God's. The cold-bloods with the money. The 1%. The control freaks.

“Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.”

Proverbs 4:27
