The Second Global Hoax

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

    The Global warming advocates/scientists have been caught suppressing and manufacturing data in order to prove a pre-conceived political/financial objective. To a normal person it is called lying! 
   The Global Warmingists (GWists) have intimidation and ridicule as a weapons of mass destruction against those who have suggesting anything but the party line. But, the GWists have used much more effective propaganda tools…the media and the education system. Congressional hearing are even being suggested!
    Some have called it the greatest hoax of our lifetime! But, there is a greater, more dangerous hoax that has been going on a long time…aided by the media and education system.
    Advocates of the theory of evolutionists have been suppressing/ignoring/twisting evidence for over a century, to make the theory of evolution something other than just an impossible theory. It would surprise a lot of people to know there is verifiable scientific, historical and logical evidences that prove the theory of evolution is impossible. 
   The truth, is there is no verifiable evidence that the theory of evolution is true. It is all smoke and mirrors! If you do not believe me, take all evidence presented and honestly see it it can just as easily be explained through the creation process as the evolutionary process…and the explanation makes more sense in light of history and science.
   Where is the outcry for a Congressional Hearing on the Theory of Evolution evidence tampering? There have been billions of dollars wasted on a theory that has not, and cannot, be proven. By the same standards used with the GWists, the theory of Evolution is a monumental hoax.
   But, there is another serious issue being discussed in the GW issue. Some say it is another world-wide religion. This is based on the idea that to believe in Global Warming one has to have a huge amount of faith without verifiable evidence…we call it blind faith.
  Oops!
If we use the same standards for evolution as we use for GW, we must assume the theory of evolution is another world-wide religion based on blind faith.
   When will the hackers get into the emails of the evolutionist?  Fortunately there is no need for hackers, the evidence is right out in plain site…if we are looking!

On what evidence?

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

    We have convinced ourselves that most folk are just not interested in the church…and we are right. Church is irrelevant to many. But on what evidence have we come to the conclusion that folk are not interested in the Gospel? Do we think the Romans, Greeks and pagans were interested in joining a church?  Why would they be?  In their eyes, the NT church was merely another cult! They became interested when they heard the Gospel.
    In a recent national survey, only 17% of those who responded attended any church at least once a month.  50% said they would be willing to talk to someone about Christianity.    

    Folk are drawn to the Gospel…not to the church! “But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself’”

Radicals know we are in a real war!

Friday, November 14th, 2008

If you have a weak heart, you probably do not want to read this. It is difficult!

Radicals have been emboldened!
   After Californians voted overwhelmingly to reject giving gays the right to marry…gays went to the streets of califonia in a bold effort to overturn the will of the people of California. It is no longer shameful to openly profess an indefensible lifestyle.
   Only 4% of Americans are atheist/agnostic, but they are getting media attention with a clever spoof…Why believe in God…just be good for goodness sake.
   Fortunately, these news stories and others are still news…they are not yet mainstream. But, the climate is right for more, even bolder, unbiblical expressions. Our national leadership is for abortion, non-traditional faith (whatever that means), no personal responsibility and stealing from the rich (unequal taxation) to give to the lazy.
Who is responsible for all this?
    Can we expect anything less from a nation that does not know God? According to a recent religious survey only 16.1 %  of over 35,000 people interviewed attend any religious group regularly. Satan is not burdened down with trivial issues. He is focused on his primary mission…populating Hell! 
    Have we forgotten our primary mission…to glorify God by being coworkers with Him to populate heaven
Would this be the analysis of an independent consultant? 
    Based on the record of success, it seems there is general obligatory effort, a lot of time spent micro-managing busy work and a focus on entertaining/pampering members. There is a lot of conversation, but not a lot of effort among the members to grow the organization. There seems to be a repetitive traditionalism that encourages mediocrity. There is lot of talk, but tradition rules. 
 
    The members spend very little time away from the assemblies studying to improve their contribution to the cause. When they leave the assemblies, most of them will spend endless hours vegetating with television, sports, entertainment, etc. Where personal money is spent is a measure of dedication, sacrifice and passion. Enough said! 
    Leadership has not creatively and affectively demanded passion, sacrifice and loyalty!
    If any competent businessmen had hired these people to grow this organization, there would have been a wholesale layoff a long time ago…and the organization would be bankrupt.
Why does our city, and our country, not know God?
    
We have not taken our responsibility and oportunities seriously and radicalism (passion) is good for a few…but I am not one of the few! We have not accepted the fact that we are in a deadly war…and war requires sacrifice. No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs—he wants to please his commanding officer.” (II Tim. 2:4)
    Until responsible/radicalism is restored to the body of the church, my city and my country will not know God any time soon.
    When will we be named with the radicals…teaching the good news of hope?   
    
Not anytime soon…is too late!
  

Come back soon. We will have positive solutions to reach our cities and nation.

Fear and Faith!

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

   They knew their land had been given to Israel and their cold stone gods were powerless to defend them. All Jericho seemed to be paralyzed with fear, but one remarkable woman processed all the stories of coming doom and tempered her fear with faith. God has never expected folk to have blind faith, so what did Rahab hear and see that made her come to such a politically_incorrect position?
   Rahab knew the God of Israel had crushed Egypt, the most powerful nation of the time. As a harlot (innkeeper or temple prostitute), she surely heard the stories of a large group of former slaves moving toward Canaan. This movement was lead by a whirlwind by day and a strange fire at night. The Canaanites must have burst into uncontrollable praise to their cold lifeless gods as for some unexplained reason the sea of people turned south…toward the Red Sea. It looked liked the Israelites were headed for a trap with no possible escape.
   Their temporary joy was suddenly shattered with the stunning news of an impossible rescue. The Red Sea was split apart and this massive group of people and livestock easily crossed from one bank to the other (approximately 10 miles) on a dry Dead Sea bed. The shock was magnified as they heard how the Egyptian army charged after the Israelites and was destroyed as the water joyfully rushed back to its normal place. For most of the Canaanites, fear was magnified!
Did Rahab begin to understand the great protection provided by God?
   Rahab wondered about the aftershock that rumbled through the land as Sinai shook violently with the presence of God. Did she connect this with the giving of an unfamilar law written from the heart of the God? Rahab must have compared this with her cold, stone gods that had no heart. 
   The spies of Jericho must have returned in record time to give the devastating news that the rescued, re_charged Israelites were turning north again…on a straight line to Canaan. The heart_melting reports of how the night fire moved closer and closer were magnified by the unexplainably stop at the southern border of Canaan. Twelve Israelites boldly spied out their Promised Land and the Canaanites were powerless to stop them. 
   There must have been complete shock, bewilderment and a collective gasp of relief…as the Israelites unexplainably moved away from the border. But, for almost four decades the strange glow in the southern sky was a constant reminder of reality…and the emotional ups and downs of every report as the Israelites moved closer and farther away from Canaan slowly drained the Canaanites of their courage.
  
Did Rahab begin to feel the love of God from the strange reports of water from rocks, hoards of quail and mysterious manna? Rahab must have remembered stories of the Egyptian disaster when God_sent hornets appeared and a painful physical plague was piled on top of Canaanite mental trauma. The cold, lifeless gods of Canaan were no match for the God of Israel!
   What went through the mind of Rahab when the final reports came that the mass of former slaves had turned north? She heard how they crushed everything in their path, including Og and Sihon, the kings of the territories east of the Jordan River. She did not understand it all, but she was certain of the power, majesty and compassion of the God of Israel.
   
Israel was calmly camped on the eastern side of the Jordan River…less than 10 miles from Jericho. The fire and whirlwind were gone. The Israelites were still and the nights were strangely dark. The people of Jericho knew that since they lived a fortified city it was a sure target. But, since the story was that Canaan was already given to Israel, their mighty walls were no comfort against the God of the Red Sea. The only thing between Jericho and destruction was the Jordan River which was probably at flood stage. The Jordan was imposing, but nothing compared to the Red Sea. 
   The people of Jericho had the same information and most of them huddled in hopeless fear. But,
Rahab processed the information in a different way and her fear was not hopeless. She demonstrated such remarkable faith that she was included in the Hebrews 11 Hall of Faith. She courageously demonstrated her faith by helping the spies…and saved her family.

Former slaves or Mighty God?
   Normally we process the story of Rahab through the lens of her faith. At the same time we tend to see the people of God as imperfect, grumbling vagabonds trudging in circles for decades. The other side of this event in history is how God’s imperfect, sometimes ill_tempered people demonstrated faith in their willingness to follow the wind and fire…and were used to destroy the resolve of the enemies of God. But, the Canaanites were not so impressed with a mass of former slaves, they were impressed with the remarkable, unique God of the slaves! 
  
Imagine what would happen if we confidently believed the power of God that demolishes strongholds, arguments and every pretention that sets itself up against Him really works in us? Is it possible the awesome power of God demonstrated in the church today would cause the enemies of God to be confused and demoralized because their lifeless, synthetic gods have no power to stop us? If not, why not? 
  
What would happen if we passionately wrapped our hearts and minds around the reality that everything in this world has been put under the unmatchable Lordship of Jesus…for the church? (Eph. 1:22,23) 
We serve the same impressive God as Rahab!
