Time Is Eroding- Seconds Are Floating - BEWARE!

"Beware my heart; Don't let pride start; tick-tock time is eroding; seconds are floating ............and I c a n ' t c a t c h t h e m ; b e w a r e / silence your heart; set it apart / b e w a r e..."
This one's TIMELESS even though written in 1984. It's a great up beat sound inviting the will to set apart the heart for silence. It's got that groovy 1975-1985 echo to it, a hint of urgency; and harmonies of encouragement eluding to the fact that all the distractions can be silenced. It makes me want to step into intentional silence with Joy for a little baby boy who saved my soul!.


Realizing Who Jesus Is

Once people realize who Jesus is and what he does for them, it makes sense why he is thought about, worshipped, praised, followed, and revered 24/7....not just at certain times of the year. He calls sick people who know their need to turn away from their own ways, not the "healthy" who think they are ok. People hated Matthew because he was a "slimy vermon" tax collector. Levi knew it was true of himself, and the religious people despised him, but Jesus loved him and called him out of collecting taxes. That love hooked Matthew and he asked for mercy and received it. Jesus did the same for the adulterous woman. He saved her from righteous judgements and unrighteous men. He did the same for me...saving me from all my sin by his love, mercy and grace. Jesus is a 24/7 Savior, God/Man, High Priest, who restores people into a Born Again life all year long.
“As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him.” Matthew 9:9 ESV
“And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.....", then Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.” John 8:7, 10-11 ESV

Matthew Realizing the Love and Forgiveness of Jesus

Jesus Holding Everyone Accountable

Giving Glory To God Strengthens Faith

“No unbelief made Abraham waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised. That is why his faith was “counted to him as righteousness.” But the words “it was counted to him” WERE NOT WRITTEN FOR HIS SAKE ALONE, but FOR OURS ALSO. It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord, who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification.” Romans 4:20-25 ESV
"Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.” Romans 5:1-5 ESV

The Covenants Of God Bring Understanding About Israel's Future

Understanding the Abrahamic, Deuteronomic, Mosaic, Davidic, and New Covenant of God will help bring understanding about God's future plans for Israel and the world. Gentile arrogance replaces Israel, but God will not break his covenants. This is a super important conversation.


Accept or Reject the True Path For Peace?

This following passage of the Bible is contrary to what many religious leaders are saying about how people become united:

“So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,”
Ephesians 2:19-20 ESV

For example, this video message the Pope gave can not bring true unity and peace. It is not based on Biblical truth. The God of Israel is the source of true agape love, and He is not the same as Allah nor Buddah. The children of Allah or Buddah are not the same children as the children of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who believe in Jesus as Messiah of the world. Believing in the God of the Bible is to believe in Love. The proof of God's love for mankind and method for bringing humanity into true peace and unity to himself is through the giving of his only son Jesus Christ to us. Jesus Christ isn't just one of many ways to become united. He is the only person through which peace and unity will flourish. He proclaimed this about himself on so many occasions. But one area of scripture emphasizes that there is no room for doubt or uncertainty that only He is the Peacemaker on this earth. It is Matthew 10:34-39 which states, "““Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household. Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.”

It's a challenging point to accept but Jesus is leaving no question that he is the only source for peace and eternal life. The following video is contrary to the words of Jesus, and though it appears peaceful and loving it does not proclaim that Jesus is the only way to unity and everlasting life.

Evidence That Jesus Is The Answer For World Peace

Biblical Correctness rejoices in the truth: THIS IS EVIDENCE THAT JESUS IS THE ANSWER. THAT HE IS THE ABSOLUTE ONLY WAY PEACE WILL EVER COME TO THE MIDDLE EAST...LET ALONE THE WORLD. JESUS IS MORE THEN PEOPLE REALIZE. "JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE" IS NOT JUST ANOTHER SLOGAN NOR PHRASE. WHEN A MUSLIM, A JEW OR ANYONE PUTS THEIR FAITH IN JESUS, AND HE BECOMES LORD AND SAVIOR OF THAT SOUL, REAL EVERLASTING PEACE IS PRESENT AMONG THEM BECAUSE JESUS THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOW THE SOURCE OF PEACE. HE UNITES. THIS IS BIBLICAL TRUTH MANIFESTED....UNITY, AGREEMENT, ONE MIND BETWEEN THOSE WHO WERE ONCE SEPARATED FROM JESUS AND HOSTILE TO ONE ANOTHER. THE "ONE NEW MAN" OF EPHESIANS 2 IS REAL EVERLASTING UNITY AS A RESULT OF JESUS CHRIST. IT IS NOT RELIGIOUS UNITY.
“Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands— remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. FOR HE HIMSELF IS OUR PEACE, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself ONE NEW MAN in place of the two, SO MAKING PEACE, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near. For THROUGH JESUS we both have access IN ONE SPIRIT to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.”
Ephesians 2:11-22 ESV


Real Transformers

These are the legit transformers and agents of peace in the Middle East. There is nothing that can stop them. They understand the mystery of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
“For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles— assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God’s grace that was given to me for you, how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly. When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. THIS MYSTERY IS THAT THE GENTILES ARE FELLOW HEIRS, MEMBERS OF THE SAME BODY, AND PARTAKERS OF THE PROMISE IN CHRIST JESUS THROUGH THE GOSPEL. Of this gospel I was made a minister according to the gift of God’s grace, which was given me by the working of his power. To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things, so that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. This was according to the eternal purpose that he has realized in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through our faith in him. So I ask you not to lose heart over what I am suffering for you, which is your glory.” Ephesians 3:1-13 ESV

Whether Above Or Below That Dividing Line...... Jesus Is There.

This world is failing you and me. Looking around you see politics and religion imploding, but also fighting, even to the point of insane violence. It isn't through either, unfortunately. It's truly what happens, inevitably, because human nature is indeed fallen. Conforming to Christ, however, is the real answer, and that requires surrendering to His ways. The state of the World is a result of resisting and being stiff necked towards a loving God who gave his Son Jesus to save the world. If the World would only yield to think and observe the evidence inside the Word Of God what difference would that make? The King of Kings is now reaching out to save a drowning world, but I truly don't believe that the World spends time in this Good Book of God to believe it's goodness. Did you know the Word of God proclaims that Jesus will one day rule this very world under a Theocracy as King of Kings and Lord of Lords? He will rule with Righteousness and Justice. Philippians 2:9-11 reveals what Authority has been given to him because of Philippians 2:5-8. And Isaiah 9:6-7 also proclaims:
For to us a child is born,to us a son is given;and the government shall be upon his shoulder,and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end,on the throne of David and over his kingdom,to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this.
Jesus Theocracy is a sure thing, inevitable, and I can't wait for that day. It's a gift that we can believe this before it happens. It's also love that his hand remains extended until the very last moment.
