CHINESE COMMUNISTS’ WORD TO AMERICA’S DEMOCRATS

(secret message—not so secret anymore)

This was written almost four years ago, never posted.
– – –
Since we have a common enemy in Donald Trump,
Since his efforts have hurt us,
Since your efforts to take him out have failed so far,
Since your last major option to take him out before November is an economic disaster,
Since you have been powerless to curb his economic boom,

We would be more than happy to help you take Trump out by killing your economy.
In China we don’t care how many people get hurt in order to advance our policies.
In America we know you don’t care how many people get hurt in order to advance your policies.
So, we have introduced a crisis that will quickly spread worldwide, including America, with a built-in camouflage to not identify intent.
We know we can count on you and your media to join us in blaming Trump, and fanning the fear and panic that will crumble your economy from within.

Corona Virus—The Perfect Storm—for you, and for us.

GOD

GOD—
NO DEBATE
NO CHANGES
NO ADDITIONS
NO DELETIONS

GOD’S WORD—
NO DEBATE
NO CHANGES
NO ADDITIONS
NO DELETIONS

God came to us, as one of us, so we could relate to Him—but on His terms, not ours.
God told us everything we need to know about Him—in the Bible—in creation—in our conscience.
Man instinctively tries to shape God into something like us—never works !

TRICKS PLAYED ON SENIORS

October 11, 2023 By Leave a Comment

From humorous to—not so much.

+ When you come out of a store to the parking lot, someone moved your car.

+ People talk . . .

+ People don’t understand . . .

+ People WILL NOT talk loud enough for you to understand them.

+ People move your stuff.

+ People always say you’re the one who can’t remember correctly.

+ People talk about you without including you in the conversation.

+ People will really talk about you if you get very sick, and you will feel worse, literally.

+ People can (in extreme cases) make you feel like vultures are circling over a weakened animal, when you get old and feeble and unstable, and it hastens losing your mind. (Be thankful if you never experience that.)

QUARANTINE – – – IN HELL ? – – – IN HEAVEN ?

October 11, 2023 By Leave a Comment

Quarantine forever—where do you want to be ?
– – –
In hell he lifted up his eyes to Abraham in Paradise and cried out for a drop of water for the torment in the flames.
Abraham answered that there was a barrier preventing any passing between heaven and hell — QUARANTINE ! ! ! — PERMANENT ! ! !
– – –
The guy in hell then pleaded for someone to come back from the dead and warn his brothers headed for hell.
Abraham said, “Can’t do—besides, it wouldn’t do any good, if they all ignore the Bible (like you did)”.
That fixes a permanent quarantine to not return from the dead and inspire people.
That cancels a lot of popular movies and stories that feel so good.
– – –
Jesus told that story—you might ought to check in with Him, like now ! ! !
I wouldn’t put it off another day.
You don’t want to be the guy in the story, or one of his brothers.
(Unless of course you think Jesus is a crazy liar.)

THE WORST KIND OF HIDING

October 11, 2023 By Leave a Comment

“When the wicked rise to power, righteous people go into hiding.”

It could also be said (in America in recent years) that when the righteous (Christians) go into hiding, the wicked rise to power.
But, you say, we are not hiding—we still go to church and worship openly—even leaders on the other side say we have freedom of worship.
– – –
The worst kind of hiding for Christians in America that has been going on for decades is satisfaction with business as usual.
The most dangerous, most perilous place for Christians is comfortable–getting along, fitting in, included, and inclusive.
Ask yourself, “Am I living, ‘called by Jesus’, daily, to make a difference—or—fitting Jesus into the successful life I have chosen in this prosperity-blessed country?”
– – –
Perhaps a little play with words can help get someone’s attention.

Compatibility with the culture has canceled Christians’ countering corruption and countless calamities around us, and in our churches.

ALZHEIMER’S – FEAR ? VS HUMOR ?

October 11, 2023 By Leave a Comment

We all know how horrible it can be to experience alzheimer’s or watch someone go through it.
But we recognize the universal role of humor to help cope with fear of some things from a distance.

As a counter to my ongoing loss of memory and mental acuity, I had this light-bulb moment some time ago:

Since they say that short-term memory tends to lose function first, I decided that is not my problem—it’s just things that happened over thirty seconds ago that I struggle with.
Oh well, just a thought.
– – –
And, if a person has a number of experiences with minor memory failure, could that give natural immunity to the real thing ?

Please don’t take this too seriously.

CONTRADICTORY – OR – COMPLEMENTARY

October 11, 2023 By Leave a Comment

We can find passages in the Bible that seem to say the opposite of other passages, including instructions for living the Christian life.
And there are numerous oxymorons where opposites are found within the same verse.
So, what do we do with that ?
– – –
Read more in the Bible, and ask for direction for our life.
– – –
God didn’t write the Bible for us to understand everything—then we would not need Him.
He left stuff beyond our grasp to show He is beyond us.
But He also gave us all we need to know and understand—for a personal relationship with Him—and He made that so simple a child can get it—in fact we must come as a child would come.
– – –
So, try to be less concerned about difficult parts, and ask for wisdom and willingness to obey (that is, apply in your everyday life) what is clear.
The best way to greater understanding of the Bible is to do what it says that you already understand.

“If anyone wills (decides, is willing) to do His will, he will know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God.”

Many people don’t want to accept the Bible and Jesus, because He calls for change—they must resort to raising ongoing questions and objections that come from their unwillingness to obey—because they can’t give up their lifestyle.
– – –
Putting Jesus in charge of their life is too much to ask.
– – –
But they can’t just walk away (like the rich, young guy, when Jesus told him he had to give up what was dear to him) because their conscience still bothers them—so they present feeble debates of the centuries.

Fighting God is a losing proposition, even if you think you have a case.

Like “There is no God, and I hate Him.”
