For people who have forgotten or chosen not to use theirobjective powers of reason and rather rely on governments and experts, and those who have lost the ability to love anything or anyone other than themselves are being turned over their own reprobate minds! This is not a matter of intellectual prowess but rather exploring the heights and depth of God's mind and heart. Forsaking and exchanging the spiritual for the sensual and fleshly many have simply forfeited benefiting from God's grace, mercies and gifts! Those that desire having a world without God will soon have their prayers answered. It's called Hell! For Heaven is more real than Earth, and it takes more faith to believe that God doesn't exist. Believing in God only takes the faith the size of a mustard seed, but not to believe in God takes faith the size of a dinosaur or spaceship! TR I will remain a fool for Christ, to proclaim my faith and hold to the truth of my salvation. For my citizenship is in heaven. So I belong to a marvelous family of “insanely” joyful, peaceful, and rejoicing saints. :wacko: TR you are so right, the evil shall certainly soon get what they long for, we will be gone and they can have this corrupt earth. Pray for those tribulation saints, they will need it. :prayer-hands: I can agree for interceding for those that will yet join our Heavenly family. But for those that God will curse, I'll leave them in God's hands. Loving what God loves and hating what God hates. If I can avail myself of God's love, mercies and grace, I must also accept His judgments will be righteous! Stupid is as stupid does! Just as like the rewards that many shall obtain, so also many shall reap consequences for their choices. My heart can indeed grieve for many and for those that I have known, but for billions upon billions that I never met or knew even existed I again must leave in the hands of God. TR I agree with you all -- I would rather remain a lowly fool in the eyes of this mortal earth but stand tall and justified in the eyes of our Lord! Jesus has our backs and it is always a privilege to know that fact! God bless you all as we continue to get beaten-down in this godless world of egomaniacs. YBIC, Humbly This is truly a time we are judged wrongly by our faith. What hurts my heart the most now are the many " christians" that rewrite and bend to the masses. Writing out all the things from God's word that they chose because it is now considered by many not socially politically correct. They are in for a rude awakening , as we are clearly warned about adding or taking away from God's word. Some are more than happy to take the word of God out of context then turn around and leave out the true, the truth about what God's word says rightly discerned and in context says. Heard how China took the bible and changed it to their political ideology , and boom, don't mess with the Lord Jesus. Have heard a group is changing His holy word to leave out what offends the LGBT movement. I have heard some " christians" defend this saying God says to love one another. Yes love, but true love is to tell the truth of the word of God and warn of sin not pander to it. Have seen video of politicians using His words , and falsely saying they pray for the ones they attack . These times we have been warned about. Now is the time to hold fast to the true and complete words of our Lord, not to be swayed by so called political social correctness but by the truth God has given us. This is nothing new, as a teenager in the 70's I remember being called names for my faith, and attacked by ones using the word out of context. Being laughed at for believing in the flood, not accepting Darwinism as truth on and on. But I do admit these times our faith is being judged much more harshly, but we have been warned. Stick with His holy word, keep your faith strong, make His love your mission. Worry not about tomorrow there is more than enough to do today. We are His children, the true church, the bride of Christ. The Holy Spirit has sealed us, our names are in the book of life. The eternity we will spend with our Lord Jesus, one day,maybe soon, all we suffer will be a distant memory that will fade away. Heaven awaits those of us washed clean in the Blood of Christ.
