So, I’m not the one to publish this. You should be hearing this from the pulpits, from churches, from religious leaders. But they are silent. There are certain things I am not qualififed to preach about, but these things I know.
One. Jesus Christ is the resurrected Son of God, God in flesh, who is seated at the right hand of God, waiting to return to this Earth to judge it. The world, the universe will burn in a heat so intense that the nucleus of every atom is going to melt. “The elements will melt in the intense heat,”
Two. There are practices, traditions, and habits that are destroying my generation. Video/computer games. Now, I am addicted to screens. I am working on that. But I played videogames for 30 years. If I played 20 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, for 30 years.. That’s 31,200 hours. 3 years of my life. Now that may not sound like a lot. But when you’re 65, or 70, you might really want those years. What about in terms of money? 3 years? Around $280,000 dollars. Now that’s not with interest, nor taxes.
Life is a series of choices. Some of which are obviously wrong. Most of which are choices between two or three things that, while not obviously wrong, they do cost, either you, or someone else. You play videogames to hang out with your online friends. Well, your dog won’t get played with for an hour that you spent two hours for pleasure.
Now, college. I think everyone should go for one semester, if they have the aptitude. But if you are not going to have a better job to pay off those loans, or work your way through, or have a plan to pay off that debt. You’re better off not going. You can be an electrician, carpenter, or plumber, and make more money, spend less time. You can climb the rungs another way.
Jobs. People in their 20s think there is a magical job out there that will be fun, make a lot of money, and be perfect for you. Well, if it’s fun, they’re not going to pay you for it. It may be perfect for you, but you may not like it much. I’m not telling you to give up on your dream. But a dream is a series of specific goals and desires, not an overall feeling or attitude. Most people post Millenial don’t seem to want to put in their time. Businesses all over, whether corporate or small, are finding it hard to fill entry level positions.
Many people think that people with food or financial benefits are not working. That’s not true. And it’s because food and financial benefits from the government are not enough to feed and provide for you and your family. Many people, who are managers, are on those benefits because of a lot of reasons.
Darkness. Since America (United States) has been given so much Light from God, when the Light leaves, it will be so dark. Much darker than at the beginning, much darker than many places that have had less opportunity to act on the truth of the gospel.
Gender dysphoria. Children are being encouraged to make decisions about their bodies that are irreversible. We don’t let people buy cigarettes unless they are 21. We don’t let people buy alcohol until 21. Generally, if you vote, you are expected to be at least 18. These decisions will result in long terms consequences that a child is incapable of grasping. People that have the hormones and gender reassignment surgery will most likely be unable to reproduce. No kids of their own, no grandkids. They will be unable to experience pleasure with whatever partner they choose. And I imagine, that one of the crucial long-term consequences of these hormones will be cancer, along with other long term health problems.
Are these attempts at social engineering, including critical theory, abortion (as population control for minorities), in the best interests of the people on whom they are being practiced? No, in all of this the motives for those who push programs to change things are for selfish motives from prideful, arrogant hearts.
And, while we’re at it.. Which party was the party that owned slaves? Was it not the ancestors of the Democratic party? The Democratic party is the party responsible for promoting slavery, Jim crow laws, segregation..
Finally. White patriarchy is bad, right? I don’t believe our President is racist, because unlike woke, anti-racist people, I can’t see inside someone’s head and determine their motives, thoughts, and beliefs based on their skin color. But no one ever points a finger at the President and says,” Racist! Privileged! White! Patriarch!” And I’m not suggesting he is any of those things (except old and white). But when the elections went through, at the 2019 Democratic primary, the people didn’t vote for a person of color, or a woman, or a person who identifies as transgender. They voted for an old white man whose been a politician in Washington for over 40 years. Half of his life.
10, 15 years ago, the only vice that was “wrong” in the eyes of media and dominant culture was hypocrisy. Now it’s racism. A vice that can only be put upon the offender without truly knowing the person’s heart. Anti-Racism? Is just racism in the opposite direction. And if racism was wrong to be propagated on one category of people, why is it right to put it upon another? Is that not hypocrisy? Which.. the culture claims is okay now.
But I believe in an objective morality. A clear cut right and wrong, given by a perfectly righteous Judge of the earth. And you don’t have to believe me. When Christ returns? Then you’ll know I warned you.
I know my words are fiery. I’m not very polite or apologetic. I’m not perfect. I am the least of the saints. I’m not qualified to be a pastor, or a deacon. I’m no prophet. Just a man. But I testify to God’s goodness to me, and that goodness, that grace, is open to you, me, and anyone, regardless of race, gender, age, eye color, skin color, religious background, or anything like that.
I told you my testimony. An angry despairing child that changed dramatically when he encounter the God of the bible and Jesus Christ. The anger melted away, and I don’t despair. I haven’t despaired since.
Maybe I should’ve led with that. Just said that, and not all the other stuff. I may have alienated or offended you. I may not even post this. But it has to be said.
Jesus came to us Incarnate as a human, fully God and fully man. He died on the cross for our sins, and rose to restore our relationship with God the Father, Himself, and our relationship with each other, our relationship with creation that Adam forfeited when he rebelled against God and listened to His wife, who was deceived by the serpent.
Do you want to be restored? To be healed? To have that brokenness in your heart and spirit mended? Then pray in faith to Jesus. And if you don’t have the words, use or modify these.
Jesus, I have sinned against You and against God. I deserve eternal death and separation from God. Yet you died while I was your enemy, to pay the price for the sins I committed. I ask you to forgive my sins and ask you to be my Savior. But forgiveness cost you mor than I could ever pay. So I offer myself as your servant, your slave, to You as Lord. Be my Savior and Lord, and I shall live for You and not myself.
When I sin again, and I will, I ask that I be given the grace to confess and repent as needed. I ask that you give me a good conscience, and restore it as needed, so that though I may wander or stray, You will pull me back to your side.
And I know, that because of you, I will have life everlasting, will be a child of God, and a co-heir with you of the glory that is to come.
In Your precious Name, O Jesus, I pray. Amen.
