GUN CONTROL – – – AND GOD

If only God would have issued strict gun control before Cain killed Abel!

Think of all the murders that would have been prevented ever since.

We could all still be living in Paradise.

 

Oh, I just remembered something went wrong before that murder, something inside of man toward God.

And that explains every crime since then.

 

Oh, I just remembered that Cain did not use a gun to kill his brother—in fact, we don’t know what he used.

And, I just realized that many murders are committed even without a weapon.

 

Gun control laws are not about controlling crimes of murder—they are all about a small group of people (with guns) controlling the rest of the people (without guns).

And that statement has the proof of history—repeatedly.

TALK ? – – – or – – – ACTION ?

I’ve seen far more child abuse when parents talk and talk, when the child desperately needs a quick spank.

A young child learns a whole lot more from a little pain than from a lot of talk—including security, love, respect, responsibility, and later independence.

SO YOU WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE ?

Comfortable in life (on earth) does not guarantee comfortable in death (there?).

NO INSURANCE ?

If only there was no such thing as insurance.

Talk about freedom vs bondage!

TAKE YOUR GUNS TO CHURCH – – – ! ! ! – – – OR – – – ? ? ?

Last week Brian Fisher on afr read a series of laws in early America that REQUIRED bearing arms to church.

Also, Doug Giles on Clash Daily did a very good job on the issue of armed Christians.

ANXIETY – – – OR – – – HUMILITY

“Anxiety is directly proportional to a lack of humility.”

—–Allister Begg on afr

(lack of humility means thinking we can take care of stuff ourselves—get things done like everyone else)

GOD AND CANCER

“The day I was diagnosed with cancer, God did not change the date on my death certificate.”

—–from listener calling in to American Family Radio

(2) REFORMATION REQUIRED AGAIN – – – AND AGAIN, and . . .

(please read these Reformation articles in numbered order)

Martin Luther said, ” The Christian is to show the prince how to bear the sword.”

If the church is ever going to lead people in the world to the saving grace of Jesus, it must stop following the world system of economics and shifting cultural values and norms.

The frog in the comfortable, warm, culture pot has no influence on anything—no salt, no light.

It is almost too late for the American church to jump out of the pot and be salt and light.

Just ask the average Christian to give up their retirement for the kingdom.

CREATE PROBLEMS, OR SOLVE ?

Do professionals solve problems or create more problems?

Psychologist John Rosemond on psychologists—“Psychologists have created more problems than they know how to solve.” (host of “Because I Said So” on afr)

President Ronald Reagan on liberals—“The problem with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant—it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.”

Jesus Christ on theologians—“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees hypocrites! For you compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, you make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.”

 

Why is this so, especially in church leaders?

It’s about job security and control.

It is self-perpetuating.

 

Strange—perpetual motion (keeps itself going) does not exist anywhere else in the real world.

AMERICA NEEDS REVIVAL

America needs revival.

America’s church needs revival.

America’s church needs repentance.

Repentance from what?

“from their wicked ways”

Better not get specific on that ! ! !
