Honesty and avoiding the truth

         Most children were taught honesty and the idea of being trustworthy. One of the many teachings of Jesus, The Christ was " you will never enter the Kingdom of God unless you have the innocence of a little child." The other requirement was "you have to surpassed the righteousness of the Pharisee" or the Jewish high-priest. We are Gentiles not Jews but God allowed us to partake the Glory of the Kingdom of God. Is God a Jew ? No.He is God; The Alpha and the Omega. Many people interpreted the bible literally. Some people also distorted or manipulated the 'Word' to suit their selfish intentions (Religion or government). James 1:23-27 emphasized that God is not a religion. People designed religion. Jesus, The Christ choosed 12-people to be his disciples.The Ancient Romans designed a 'religion' to suit their needs and survival. The Truth cannot be hidden.Spain under King Philip and Queen Isabella used the Catholic Religion as a disguise in colonizing and exploiting sovereign nations.They failed. The Truth will be revealed.The guilty will face their guilt and judgment by God.
The Truth is the Light of the world. The Way, the Life and Truth is Jesus,  The Christ.
 Jesus, The Christ is God. Crucified, died, buried and resurrected. Jesus, The Christ gave us the Greatest gift....The Holy Spirit. Rejoice...rejoice really special people for the Kingdom of God is at hand !  

                             The Kingdom of God is not in speech but Power.

Why are you afraid ? God promised The Holy Spirit, believe ! Knock and the door will be opened, seek and you will find. Who said it is easy ? But the burden was removed by the blood and sacrifices of Jesus, The Christ. The Martyrs gave their lives to save ours. Why are you afraid ? Evil perhaps can kill the physical body but never the Spirit God gave you. Fear is of the world. Faith has no physical form but conquers your fears and sadness. Rejoice you have been born again because of the Holy Spirit........through Jesus, The Christ.


BEWARE !

         There are numerous wolves wearing the sheeps clothing.They pretend to help you and I. Actually, they will devour us when the time comes.By prayer and invoking God's power in Jesus name, they will be deterred if you have faith. Jesus said, " If your faith is as big as a mustard seed, you can command mountains to move." The world we live in today is more complex and complicated. The sophistication of concealing the "wolves" of our time and the intricacies of "systemic" exploitation and "colonization", the challenges and struggles is more daunting and dangerous in the era of plutocracy,meritocracy, "modern day narcissism", and hedonism. This is not new; It has gained sophistication.Beware.It has penetrated every facets and units of life and society; From families, communities, churches, schools, governments and the world.
           Be not afraid just be aware, "evil" does not rest. "If God is with us, who can be against us ?" Can we defeat evil ? Yes ! The Holy Spirit of today is more powerful than anything else. Remember the prophecies has been fulfilled....The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit in our time.

Forgiving

         Forgiveness is difficult to come by.Most people if not all are facing the hardship of forgiving.I am not the exception.We are the result of our experiences.As children we were innocent and uncorrupted.We were children once and forgiveness was easy to come by.Could we forgive now ? Could we forget forever ? Jesus,the Christ made the ultimate sacrifice and forgave.In our generation we have the Spirit and Truth.In believing God nothing is impossible.Believe that we can forgive and forget. History reminds us not to forget.
The way I understood history, a reminder of our fallibility and imperfections.Through its lessons we learn not to repeat the same mistakes only if we recognized the need of God in our lives, then we can move on.

Challenges

         Challenges whether physical or mental is a concrete sign that we are not perfect or infallible.Nobody is. Through our limitaions and weaknesses we discover that we need others and God.


          Lacking is more of a blessing than abundance.In abundance we forget we need one another.We become arrogant that we tend to think we are god and we donot need others. In lacking we realized we need God and others.


           Suffering and prosperity have one in common; Both are transitory and has an end.

Failure and Perfection

         People are fallible. That makes us not perfect. We struggle to achieve perfection but to our dismay, we experience failure. The first world measures our success through material possessions and achievements. We have billions of people that inhabit planet earth and many are living in poverty. More than two thirds of the world are living in impoverished condition. The so-called first world are the former colonizers that contributed to their dire and miserable living conditions. There are other reasons why they are poor.Their corrupt leaders/politicians makes them poor.Empty promises to alleviate their lives and living conditions.The communist promises utopia and the capitalist promises "free market".None of the above is sincere and truthful.If we have to apply the measure the first world uses, most people that inhabit planet earth are failures. Can you believe that ?
It takes really special people to comprehend and stop this "evil". Jesus, the Christ was crucified because he told the truth. Jesus labeled the leaders and politicians of his time, "hypocrites". We still have them today.
Wolves wearing the sheeps clothing. Making empty promises. Giving false hopes.
        Failure is a lie.Perfection is man made, an illusion.We are fallible.Everyone is important.Everyone deserves a better life.The elites, the rich and powerful are the hypocrites. A few of them , yet controls the world.But Jesus promises, If God is with us, who can be against us ? God's judgement is swift and fair.
Death will come life a thief in the night, your money and power cannot protect you from God's fair judgement.For the rich,powerful elites, repent ! It takes a really special person to tell you this. If you understood the meaning, you are blessed.Jesus said, "This generation who believes and yet donot see are blessed."Faith is not attained from an ivvy league education.Faith is not given to a worldly mind.Who can define and concretize death ? Who can say with certainty, "God is not real ?" Be careful to blaspheme the Holy Spirit who gives you light.....failure and perfection is of the world, faith is divine and of the "Spirit that
gives Life."
