The way I see the world is like this. You are either a Christian or NOT. That is it. That is the separation in my view.
We have exhausted our labels to infinity and this has NOT helped with any aspect of life... but rather made things much worse and with every new label comes more DIVISION.
We are attempting to put out so many fires in the name of CHRIST and it is my opinion that the world has reached the stage of being an out of control forest fire.
We are ALL human beings. There is NO right or left. There is Christian or non-Christian.
We cannot expect the world to ACT in a becoming way... we only have the right and authority to demand this from FELLOW BELIEVERS in CHRIST. The world in my opinion is like the Titanic and she is sinking fast. I don't believe there is any saving her and that is backed up by scripture. The end times are here my friends... and this is NOT the time to pick a WORLDLY side.... It is time to humble ourselves ... repent for our wicked hearts and selfish pleasures and get RIGHT with GOD.
We know what's coming.... and I think we need to get our heads out of the sand and to start preparing.
We are to bring peace.... love and truth. This is not going to happen in the political world. It is ONLY going to happen when the Christians come together and begin living as the bible tells us to.
WE need to start STEPPING out of these systems that claim to be of Christ but are NOT.
We are blaming and shaming and calling it justice...
We are collecting others' dirty deeds and hanging them out for public view like a cat attempting to catch a mouse.... all done in the name of Christ and to preserve our own self-righteous indignation.
We are fighting and belittling one another and calling it the cause for CHRIST... when in all reality.... Christ has NOTHING to do with it.
I have heard people talk about REVIVAL in the church. I don't expect it will come UNLESS we take this opportunity to understand our GREAT need for REPENTANCE from our hardened hearts.
We are looking at the other side of the fence... with boulders in our hands.. ready to throw... while NEGLECTING to ensure that our own camp is clean and pure.
I know for myself.... this means a true humbling and a stepping back away from the noises of the world.
God have mercy on us. We have gotten a lot of things wrong.
I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them.
~Romans 16:17
Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works. ~1 Timothy 6:3-5
