A solid foundation of the scriptures strengthens our determination. Many examples recorded and miraculously preserved in the Bible make it clear that complete trust in Christ has always been the believers' only solution. Right after Jesus' said "Remember Lot's wife", He added, "Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.". The more we love this world and all its trappings, the harder it will be to lose our lives and live up to our commitment to Christ. The time is now to seriously practice losing our current lives on every level by tackling very person, delight, treasure, that will try to make us look back.<br /><br />The Bible is proving to be today's only reliable news source and it's popping out at us. Think about this one, from the apostle Paul:<br /><br />1 Corinthians 4:13 (KJV): "Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day."<br /><br />Or, as Young's Literal version puts it:<br /><br />"When we are slandered, we answer kindly. We have become the scum of the earth, the garbage of the world — right up to this moment."<br /><br />Right up to this moment, unto this day, this is still the way it is. Understanding our true standing in the world as garbage, we know that we are also the foolish things who confound the wise (1 Corinthians 1:27).<br /><br />- AKAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-3568364598826357482021-09-11T18:22:09.888-07:002021-09-11T18:22:09.888-07:00The main difference between you and me is that I c...The main difference between you and me is that I cut and paste connecting dots while you weave them into tapestry!Crush Limbrawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11511707894293049606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-78232532175780543772021-09-10T18:24:30.837-07:002021-09-10T18:24:30.837-07:00The courageous Alexandr Solzhenitsyn reminds us th...The courageous Alexandr Solzhenitsyn reminds us that we are to 'Live Not by Lies' The essay is as pertinent today as it was in 1974. I'm also reminded of Vaclav Havel's 'Power of the Powerless'. We are going to be tested as we have never been before.

Some of the verses are absolute gems.<br /><br />I could almost just cut and past many of these, as you have done - just change the names to the modern demons.bionic mosquitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002548958078731031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-23606574081687931202021-09-10T13:03:15.867-07:002021-09-10T13:03:15.867-07:00Another thought, bionic - last night I was reading...Another thought, bionic - last night I was reading Micah 7 - "2The godly man has perished from the earth;<br /><br />there is no one upright among men.<br /><br />They all lie in wait for blood;<br /><br />they hunt one another with a net.<br /><br />3Both hands are skilled at evil;<br /><br />the prince and the judge demand a bribe.<br /><br />When the powerful utters his evil desire,<br /><br />they all conspire together.<br /><br />4The best of them is like a brier;<br /><br />the most upright is sharper than a hedge of thorns.<br /><br />The day for your watchmen has come,<br /><br />the day of your visitation.a<br /><br />Now is the time of their confusion.<br /><br />5Do not rely on a friend;<br /><br />do not trust in a companion.<br /><br />Seal the doors of your mouth<br /><br />from her who lies in your arms.b<br /><br />6For a son dishonors his father,<br /><br />a daughter rises against her mother,<br /><br />and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.<br /><br />A man’s enemies are the members<br /><br />of his own household." - does that make Jesus a plagiarist?:)<br />Seriously, it has come to me recently that in order to see the big picture today, if you start with Isaiah through Malachi - then Matthew through John - and you have a picture within a picture.<br />Jesus constantly quoted the prophets - they lived from about 850BC to 400BC - Warning about the events to come. Of course, their reward was execution. <br />I cannot think of anyone better than you, bionic - to put these into a narrative package.<br />How about it?Crush Limbrawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11511707894293049606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-2394378062158426072021-09-10T12:18:01.715-07:002021-09-10T12:18:01.715-07:00Another EPIC!Another EPIC!Crush Limbrawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11511707894293049606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-15620101288270878612021-09-10T06:25:59.182-07:002021-09-10T06:25:59.182-07:00Yes.

What is certain is that they had made up their minds, prior to this, as to exactly where they would draw the line in defense of their faith and there was no "looking back". <br /><br />It is almost as certain today that everyone will have to decide whether they knuckle under to the Order handed down or resist it in favor of individual freedom and personal responsibility. This decision will also have to be made in advance. Those who refuse to draw a line will, by default, have already given in and they will take the Jab. <br /><br />The most important part of the decision will be the resoluteness of the commitment. Those who stand firm may very well be shut out, shut down, starved to death, but it is critical that, once the decision is made, it is held to. <br /><br />"...No one, having set his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God." -- Luke 9:62 <br /><br />As Bionic said above, "Don't look back."Rogerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08156823478509665137noreply@blogger.com
