I have sat for quite awhile simply looking at the television and shaking my head in disgust.
As an American I am appalled at what I see about the Crisis in the Gulf. Yet, I suppose that is my problem. I am being given an opportunity to become neutral (objective) to what I see for further clarity of perception not to mention emotional stability. At the same time I have the responsibility to be a moral voice in spite of my past errors. Otherwise, life experience means nothing.
If we have learned from our past mistakes then we must say what we see. We must speak about what we know. We must do what we can to share with others what we've learned from our past mistakes. This is what's called 'the evolution of mind'. The mindset of our past mistakes needs healing for well being to exist in the present day. The future is living today for a better tomorrow in relationship of all interaction with others.
This is what 'freedom of speech and religion' is all about in America. Voices need to speak for worthwhile purposes. Now I speak from the foundation of my heart where the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights have stated that there are certain inalienable rights.
I take my stand and exercise my convictions. I am a free man in a not so free land. I am lonely like my God for my people. Unlike my God I have to admit I am afraid that what I will say shall be scorned by the wicked who have so delighted in the disgrace of the human race that the Almighty God saw fit to bring forth into being. In any event I must do what a man must do. If for no other reason than for the blessing and well being of my manhood.
All who read and cannot comprehend where I am coming from are forgiven by the God of my heart before I begin to enliven my spirit as testimony that I care because I am sharing of myself this day for the Glory of the Lord of Host.
Insight Upon The Sky Light Of The Souls Of Men
I am beginning to see clearly that this world order doesn't have to worry about going to hell in a bread basket. It has been there for quite a while but the people who are theoretically the leaders of the populace are blind, deaf and dumb to this fact of life. Those who have been serving the all mighty dollar without respect for the so called Almighty God are running scared. They are too afraid to die and too fearful to live in the light of the truth.
What is that truth? These powers that are have no answers that will bring forth any resolution to the problems that they are now encountering. How could they? They helped create them and they are busy blaming each other as they remain in a state of denial. They have not yet taken the time to reflect upon their past decisions. Until they do so they will not have learned their lesson, which is to become more helpful tomorrow.
It is frightening to think that the countries of the world are about to revolt beyond the wildest dreams of the powers that are. If the chaos that is being seen in other countries throughout the world begins in America, a worldwide revolution will take place. It is scary to predict that this might happen. Should there be a worldwide revolution, the Civil War will look like child's play in relationship to what will occur in this land.
All because the powers that are have sought to misuse education.
All because of the powers that are have sought the misuse of money.
All because the economy of every country is in financial ruin.
All because the people will see the hypocrisy of their elected religious and political leadership.
All because the powers that are have diligently sought for the populace of the earth to ignore the Word of the Living God, ensuring they are not prepared to meet their maker.
It is a bad thing when the political and religious leaders are corrupt. It is horrible when the people that follow the leaders are corrupt because of their own misguided ways of intending to misuse the purpose of their leaders. When this happens chaos ensues because the populace has been led astray from their purpose in being.
It is very clear that this country is sick and so are the majority of the people. The moral fiber of the humanity needs restoration for the well-being of good morale. This is paramount to prevent decadence. Only a fool can't see the writing on the wall.
The news media is presently in their heaven. World wide coverage and world wide opinion of every attention seeker is being filmed for the exclusive purpose of becoming a 30 second sound byte.
The political leaders (world wide) are getting into the act with all their fears and cheers. They will unite with causes that make them look good and they will separate from causes that make them look bad.
Worldwide religious leaders are coming out of the closet. Yet, they do not demonstrate the way that Jesus would do things. The spirit of the underworld is doing the leading Ü not the Spirit of God. These leaders are the very people that should know about the forces of darkness or the forces of light. These forces are internally fighting within everyone and lead them towards their destiny.
The varied world wide social experts are showing off their 'Ph.D' (Piled High Deep - in rhetoric). What they say portrays the intelligence of brilliance but they are lacking the smart of wisdom.
Psychotherapy hasn't helped the consciousness of the populace to arise above the mistakes of their ancestry. Analysis separates and synthesis unites. Why do something that will separate you from the God of your heart, the love for your own divine information, to act on for well-being?
Opinions regarding this Gulf war are flying in the wind while the American flag is burning in the streets. So much for the American Spirit that is supposedly the reflection of the Holy Spirit. There's little doubt that the American Military Might is awesome.
The American Fighting Man or Woman is the best dressed, equipped, trained and cared for of all soldiers throughout the world. The Commander In Chief has a moral responsibility to do everything in his power to achieve peace where peace is possible. In his prayers he must ask for the will of God be to be done way beyond his own.
The seemingly educated who are lacking life experience are presently leaving the college campus, the office area, the homes of the land and marching in the street. Blocking traffic, burning police vehicles, commandeering the San Francisco Bay Bridge, throwing bricks at policemen, defacing public and private property and thrashing a military recruiting office. Wonderful!
Are these law abiding citizens? I thought they were peace marching. So why are they engaging in war? They are being controlled by the underworld just as much as Saddam Hussein is controlled by the underworld. They are not marching for peace. If they were, they would demonstrate it by exemplifying what they seek. It is hypocrisy to say that they are marching for peace while going to war, terrorist style, on American soil. Such idiocy is unthinkable in a Judeo-Christian country that prides itself upon the Rule of Law.
What is not properly understood is that America is a land of laws. America is not a land of people as much as America is a land where the U.S. Constitution is King.
Constitutional Law is the Ruler that is supposedly sustaining the people.
America is - ONE NATION UNDER GOD (SPIRIT).
America is not - nationality against NATIONALITY (PERSONALITIES VERSUS PERSONALITIES).
Peaceful assembly is the lawful way. Peacefulness is of the golden age where performance of the golden rule is the call of duty for citizenship.
Violent assembly is the unlawful way. Violence is of the darkness where disrespect for law is propagated by the unlawful who are immoral. Only the insensitive would disturb the peace because they are peturbed by the war in the Gulf.
The offspring of the Viet Nam generation has grown up. They are no different from their parents that went astray before them. It is true. The sins of the fathers are passed down to the children for the next four(4) generations. When there is damage to life, limb or property, the act of civil disobedience is not only unlawful but immoral. Such activity is a disgrace when the humanity has a dire need to arise in consciousness. The conscience of man needs stability for the blessing of freedom that is supported in truth by justice and mercy.
Has anyone in America paid attention to the history of the world? Isn't the same thing taking place that was taking place in the 1960's? Have we learned anything since then?
What good did the Kings of Sproul Hall do for America?
Where is Tom Hayden? Oh, I see! He's lost without support of 'Hanoi Jane'.
Where is 'Hanoi Jane'? Oh, I see! She's divorced her lover-husband - Tom Hayden. She's graduated from Movie star and Exercise queen to Ted Turner's TV Queen. Obviously, she's abreast of the situation. I hear she's a restored woman who has recently seen the value of a silicon implant. Vanity. All is vanity, sayeth the Preacher...... All is chasing the wind.
Where is Joan Baez; where is Bobby Dylan and the rest of their peers?
Where are all the so called heroes of the past?
It is easy to speak the words that will make you popular?
It is easy to sing songs that can help you escape into dreams?
It is not so easy to fight for the truth Ü for the sake of the truth Ü which is more often unpopular.
I'm not talking about the kind of truth that is but the opinion of one man versus another. I'm referring to Godly Truth.
The Truth of which Jesus spoke by doing.
Talk is cheap. And actions speak louder than words.
Anyone can march as long as their life is not on the line.
Anyone can talk as long as they can walk away after they've had their say. Few people hold themselves responsible for the psychological damage that their words and songs bring to the mind of man.
I ask you to search your heart and answer for yourself this question. Let your realizations come forth from within your being. What is the use of having spirit if you can't use your spirit for self-realization? Is life any better in the world because of the peace activist of the 1960's, 1970's & 1980's? The Holy Scriptures declare: "Test every spirit by its fruits." What is the fruit of the 1960's? The 1970's? The 1980's?
There's no doubt that the United States of America was torn asunder by the Viet Nam Conflict. When a war is not called a war, but a conflict, hell is the price that is paid. The physical as well as psychological damage is beyond measure, for psychic scars run silently and run deeply. This is true whether you run to war or run away from war. Either way, you are not at ease. And what is not of ease Ü is disease. So, when you are not convicted you are in trouble. Your conscience is unclean.
It is true Ü history repeats itself. It is the same with the lessons that are not learned (missed opportunities) by the fools who spew their intellectual, philosophical and moralistic rhetoric. They have very little life experience in which to measure their certainty of tolerance.
I am a Viet Nam Era Veteran. I voluntarily enlisted in the U.S. Army. I heard the cry of the President Of The United States Of America. John F. Kennedy said: "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." That statement is just as true today as it was when he said it; except it needs to be related to in a different way. "Ask not what your God can do for you. Ask what you can do for your God." Or, "Ask not what your fellow man can do for you. Ask what you can do for your fellow man."
I am an American Ü gifted with birth on the American soil. And in spite of the genetic coding of my body-personality, whether it be considered black or white, Catholic, Muslim or Jew Ü it is but the programming of the body that I inherited from mom and dad. It is with me but not me. Therefore I have no need to become caught up with whatever is within the mindset of the body that can be considered twisted mentality.
I am an American Ü I do realize that I am no better or worse than another. I may be better off than those who are not Americans. That's because the God of my heart did see fit for myself to be in this land to exemplify the wisdom of His Love and His Truth on His behalf for the blessing of those which are less fortunate than myself.
I am an American Ü I am not at liberty to be foolish except for the sake of the God of my heart. And whether my body-personality likes or dislikes this wholesome truth Ü I must become educated not only in the ways of the world but the ways of heaven as well Ü if wisdom is to be the better part of valor.
I am an American Ü I am not only a citizen of this country but an ambassador of good will towards the people of every land. I have duty in serving my God according to the Judeo-Christian doctrine of the land in which I dwell but respect the God of the heart of everyone in every country.
I am an American Ü I have duty in serving my country according to the laws of the land. Also, I have need to respect the laws of another country.
I am an American Ü I have been blessed for well-being with purpose of blessing others for well-being without regard to their race, color, sex, creed, national origin. Only by doing so can I expect to become wholesome in the sight of God that created my being into existence.
I am an American Ü I enlisted in the U.S. Army and was trained by the U.S. Marine Corps. And ironically I was stationed upon a U.S. Air Force base. My mission of enlistment was with the Nike Missile Command (NORAD).
I am an American Ü I loved my life for I loved my God. I loved my country and I loved my President. My enlistment taught myself respect Ü respect for myself and respect for others regardless of their race, color, creed, sex and national origin.
I was a member of the military when the Cuban Crisis broke, when the Viet Nam Conflict began, and when President John F. Kennedy was killed. I was there when the Viet Nam Conflict turned into war. I received honorable discharge after the U.S. Military saw fit for my release from active duty.
I entered the military because of honor and departed because of honor. After my tour of duty I worked with the military as a government employee at the Federal Induction Center. I participated in the enlistment and induction of thousands upon thousands of American men and women.
I watched the uprising in America during the Viet Nam Conflict (War).
I watched the marching upon the U.S. Federal Induction Center. Military and civilian workers had to be 'bused in' to work.
I watched the crowds of people draft dodging.
I watched the Canadian exodus.
I watched the civil disobedience.
I watched and watched and watched many things taking place in the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's. All of it had a toll on myself. No different from anyone else. And, yes, when I saw a friend come home in a body-bag it devastated my existence. This was the straw that broke the camel's back. I was torn asunder by the blundering of many.
I felt as though my soul was dying and my body felt like Dante's Inferno. So much so that my psyche snapped. Like many a young man, I blew out! All of it Ü was too much to bare. And, of course, when I cracked Ü I had a nervous breakdown.
I lost my financial life, my mental life, my spiritual life and nearly my physical life. I ended up in the hospital. The medical doctors stated they didn't expect me to live for more than 13 days.
I was miserable beyond belief.
I was paralyzed by fear of this world order.
I was paralyzed by fear of the people of this land.
I was paralyzed by the reality that I seemed to be living in a world, especially in an America, that had led me to believe that this America was my home but America was no longer the home where my heart was strengthened.
The humanity looked like my people but they were not acting like my people. Life on earth was hell. Living in America was like dying in the Lost Atlantis.
I felt like a foreigner in my own land. It was with this realization that I further realized that this is how Jesus must have felt when he was on earth. I wandered with no place to go among people who seemingly didn't care about each other.
I have to admit that grief got the best of me. I became psychologically distraught. I was in shock. Yes, I died! Not in the way that the doctors did expect. I died a thousand deaths before and after the hospital. I departed the hospital with a '3" by 3" hole in my stomach' and never looked back at this world in the same way.
I spent years going to the Veteran's out-patient clinic. I've spent time with the men and women who have given their life for their country. I've seen the physically and psychically damaged. I've not only seen them, I was one of them.
My psyche has been restored by the healing of my spirit. But, I dare say that I am distressed at what has happened to the beautiful world the Lord of Host has put into our hands. It appears that the people of America have fallen asleep on the battlefield of earthly existence.
Yes, I know loss.
Yes, I know grief.
Yes, I know the life that we have been taught to live upon this earth.
Yes, I know what it is like to be physically handicapped and psychologically distraught and at loss as to what to do. I see what many others like myself can see also. And although our perceptions seem invalid Ü it doesn't mean that we are invalids. We are despised, for we have no use in the world. The powers that are have no respect for the well-being of people who have need of true spirituality.
Yes, I know about life experience. I have had more than my fair share. I had everything to live for as a young man. And as a young man Ü I lost my will to live. I ended up where I began as nothing worthwhile. I lost my home, wife, family and children. My integrity was shattered in ways I can't hardly express in written form. I lost my heart because my love for God, for Country and fellow human being was shattered by the Kings of Sproul Hall. I lost everything and nearly my soul. And I dare say that now you've heard this soul speak. It speaks to every American regardless of race, color, creed, sexual gender and national origin.
Do not let the Marching and Preaching Kings take from you what they sought to take from me. Namely, my soul where the parish of my speech would not have honor. Do things the upright way by lawful means for lawful purposes. Allow justice and mercy to be your loving guide when in protest. In this way Ü compassion rather than sympathy will rule the hour and the calling will be worthwhile as duty.
America is only as great as the American that perceives greatness to be honor in the face of disaster.
We are Americans. We, The People, Are The People who have duty of service upon the station of earth life.
We are the host of the world.
We are the liberated of every race, color, creed, sex and national origin.
We are the brave and free in America. Our Flag is the Coat Of Arms Of The Lord Of Host. The red is His Love, the white His Purity, the blue His Certainty. Why burn the flag when we could just as easily yearn in our heart to stand fast in the light of the truth?
Love your God by demanding that you love the truth by expressing the fulfillment of life through duty. Love your Country by demanding that you keep a watchful eye upon the protection of the - Ten(10) Admendments of the U.S. Constitution. Always careful in observing that these inalienable rights (Bill of Rights) are not given to the people by the government. The government is the people. The governed are the elected officials who have promised not to tamper with the U.S. Constitution. That sacred writ that is the paper wall between tyranny and freedom.
Love your President by demanding that you support his efforts in upholding the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Love your Congress by demanding that you support their efforts in safeguarding the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Love yourself by resolving your disputes of protest in a lawful manner. Love your enemy by offering him the Peace of God -by exercising the law of God as sacred devotion. Do not fall for the rhetoric. Don't listen to those who are too cowardly to serve their God, their Country or their fellow man.
All I can tell you is fight. Fight for your life. Fight the battle for the truth. Fight with the intent to destroy the influence of evil over the good. Do so before all flesh upon this earth is destroyed. Exercise your spirit and fight the inward way for the battle of the soul.
Listen: 1Timothy, 1:18-2:5; This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
The enemy is not Saddam Hussein. The enemy is not George Bush. What we see in them is that which has control of our heart and sees itself in others. The enemy is within us when we are not at peace with God. We have dire need of marching inward with the intent of taking control of our body-personality. This will alleviate many of the misperceptions that are casting us outward in false expression, leaving us as captives with the devil in the deep blue sea.
We do not need to make the same mistakes as those that went before us. This is disgracing ourselves and those which taught us better. We can learn from the past if we'd only reflect upon the truth for blessing in the present. I risk being boastful, for I believe it is important to witness the wisdom of God in His undertaking of raising my character on His behalf. I was not alone in all that life experience. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers did their duty of responding to the love within themselves for God, for Country and for fellow human beings.
We found ourselves in a position where we had to grow up by sitting down and learning to listen for a change. We had to face life. Life wasn't the way we were taught it would be in the world. Instead, life itself taught us a great lesson. Life must be how life needs to be for the evolution of the genetic lineage. Only the strong will survive and only the loving in the way of God will prevail.
We've come along way since the 1960's. Free love has helped us have AIDS. Free advice has created many a coward where the hero of courage could have stood tall for sacred principle. Nothing is free except life. We, The People are factors of that life. Those who dare try enslave us are but fools who can't mind their own business in the policing their wicked thoughts. They dare not appreciate life as we see it. How could they? Would they not have to give unto us what they secretly desire for themselves?
Something great did happen in the 1960-1980's. A man came upon the scene. His name was Martin Luther King. He advocated non-violence. He got things done by becoming a human shield to protect the love of God in his heart for Christ sake. He marched upon Alabama.
Martin Luther King did not use a brick as weapon of offense. Martin Luther King defaced no property. Martin Luther King didn't strike at anyone.He simply spoke his convictions and backed up his speech by taking action through marching into Alabama.
He carried in his heart the Sword of Spirit. Although Martin Luther King was a member of the flock, a lamb in his own right, he acted as a lion with the courage not to doubt the truth of his heartfelt conviction. He loved the truth for the sake of the truth. That was all he needed. He prevailed.
Martin Luther King did what he did for a national cause. The same thing can be done today. It can be done internationally. The well being of the world and the people of the earth are in need of the happening. Will it be done? I doubt it? Can it be done? Murphy's law - (if it can happen it will happen).
There's no greater idea than an idea whose time has come. Can anyone except a wretch as myself come up with anything better save dropping a nuclear weapon? What's needed is: Spiritual Soldiers on a world wide level. Soldiers of Christ who are Christed by the Wholesome Perspective Of The Almighty. These people of God need to arise and take their stand in march for peace. All that is needed is for the agreement to take place in an united front.
Yes, MARCH FOR PEACE. BUT DO SO WITH THE INTENT TO MARCH FOR THE PEACE OF GOD IN YOUR HEART AS YOUR FIRST CAUSE.
I call the news media to march for the - PEACE OF GOD.
I call the politicians to march for the -PEACE OF GOD.
I call the religious leaders to march for the - PEACE OF GOD.
I call the entertainers to march for the - PEACE OF GOD.
I call the businessmen to march for the - PEACE OF GOD.
I call on the concerned citizens of the earth to march for the - PEACE OF GOD.
If marching for peace then let the discipline of the heart be the compassionate cause of love for the truth of God. See things the way Jesus did for the moral well being of good morale and glad tidings. Hear this for plan and purpose:
Luke 14:27-35. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple (follower). For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace. So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple. Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned? It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Let us march into Iraq as Martin Luther King marched into Alabama.
Let us use the Sword of Spirit as the weapon of offense.
Let us give credence unto the Living God by enlivened witness.
Let us not allow the death of Martin Luther King, John F. Kennedy and Bobby Kennedy to have been in vain.
Let us not invalidate the teachings of Christ, Buddha, Mohammed, Hannibal, Confucius and alike.
Let us march upon the glory of the Lord.
Let us thrive upon earth and beyond like Jesus did by marching into Iraq while on His way to Jerusalem.
This quality of faith in application is the duty of every man, woman and child that truly believes in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. No dictator can take on the world of people dedicated in the devotion of stamping out external war by demanding themselves to be employed to thwart such a happening within themselves.
A NON-VIOLENT DOING (MARCHING) by a NON-VIOLENT THINKING is precisely what the dictators such as Saddam Hussein need for healing of their shameful way of wickedness. IF SOMEONE WANTS TO BRING SADDAM HUSSEIN TO HIS KNEES THEN THIS IS THE UPRIGHT WAY TO DO IT.
A peaceful demonstration for the LOVE OF GOD, as JESUS TAUGHT is MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD. Let us melt our swords into plowshares. Let us not so much march against war but - go to war by marching for the PEACE OF GOD. Let us not so much be against the war that's being waged in Irag but - go to war by not being against anyone for any reason whatsoever save - what they do that is against the PEACE OF GOD.
Now, the problem with this idea is that the worlds of people haven't come to their senses so it can be applied as a practical reality. It is too simple, too profound and too easy. Besides, it takes discipline. Remember the story of Jericho? They marched around the city seven (7) times and the walls came tumbling down!
What if Iraq of today was treated like the Jericho of yesterday?
Where are the spiritual marchers?
Where are the spiritual people?
Where are the soldiers of God?
Where are the God fearing people of the world?
I can picture this world wide happening! Can you?
Something can happen that is greater than Woodstock.
Something can happen that is greater than Live Aid.
Something can happen that is greater than Farm Aid.
Something can happen that is greater than Jesus feeding the 5,000 hungry people of His day.
Yes, something can happen when we cause the great happening. The Lord of Host has given us dominion of the earth. Will we dare do our duty and own the world for His peace?
That something great that can happen is the materialization of the Living God by the Great Living Spirit of His Life moving forth as the Eternal Being within us.
Can you imagine five(5) billion people marching towards IRAQ Ü with ONLY THE SWORD OF SPIRIT AS THEIR WEAPON OF OFFENSE?
What a charitable event. A worthwhile cause for world-wide peace of enacting the power of God for the well being of the living and the damned.
Didn't Saddam Hussein say that he'll win the war because God is on his side? Well, then, let's get on the side of God and go and see Saddam Hussein! He'll be glad to see us won't he? At least the God of his heart will be for certain. I doubt that the God of his heart would like to see him dead. He simply needs the healing of his life.
Are we ready to go as a nation, are we ready to go as a world-wide society?
"HELL NO - WE WON'T GO....."
"HELL NO - WE WON'T GO....."
"HELL NO - WE WON'T GO..... "
We have to stay home and complain and complain and complain but never come up with a decent solution that will bring forth resolution.
The only way to have life is for us to overcome death wherever we see it preying upon the soul of man. Certainly all rhetoric corrupts the mind of man. His mental state is confused by the bewildered who call themselves leaders when they are are blind, deaf and dumb towards the issue of a common sense reality. We have no need to create our own reality. For Christ sake Ü we are of the Reality if we'd only wake up and see it. A house divided against itself can't stand. I dare say - neither can any country.
It is time Ü it has always has been the time Ü to be united inside for the purpose of correction outside. We are in dire need of enlightenment upon this planet. We need to do the things that work for well being. If we are to arise beyond the mass mind of ignorance, we need to march en masse for the perfection of courage Ü the only way to demonstrate our disgust.
I can easily see why Jesus grieved greatly at the tomb of Lazarus. He said that Lazarus was asleep. The observers believed that Lazarus was dead. Certainly, according to all earthly impressions Lazarus was dead. He had been in the grave for four (4) days. Yet, Jesus didn't see it the way they did. He looked beyond appearances of people, places and conditions. He didn't just waste His time in the frivolous pursuit of hoping and wishing. He exercised His faith. He lifted up the eye of his mind and saw in the vision of God. Whenever you are acting upon faith Ü when you are faithing Ü you are psychically endowed by the insight of the Heavenly Father.
Jesus grieved because He saw the lack of faith. We have become a nation of cowards when it comes to the faith of God. We need heroes of faith. We have had enough of man's faith in man. Any one of us can easily let the other down. What we need is God's faith alive in man. His faith is the faithful faith of action rather than reaction.
His faith alone will preserve the human race. It is time to put our money where our mouth is, our time and energy where we can win in the name of God, for Christ sake. So far, we talk a good story but we're all out for glory Ü namely, self glory. And do you know what? It makes me so sickened in my heart and so saddened in my soul that I am afraid that I can do nothing save this work.
Let's pray for God to strike us dead if we can't stand up and become enlivened by His Grace. At least death by His hand is a mercy killing. The way we are going is in the wrong direction! We're all being puppets that are being tied to the strings of despair. We see little hope because there is no help in self-perfection. Faith properly applied is the ally of grace, so help us God.
There's no time like the present to quit being a pacifist in the face of Fascism. This is the time to take a stand to command that we march into IRAQ like our forefathers gladly sailed into this America, The Lord's Promised Land. This is the land of milk and honey. We'll not realize this truth until we quit milking each other for the honey of flowery words not backed up with the action of heartfelt conviction.
There is no political solution to war except war. It is just a matter of time. Who doesn't know that when doing their best to prevent war, politicians will lead us into war? There is no religious solution to war except war. It is just a matter of time. Who doesn't know that when doing their best to prevent war, the religious will lead us into war?
As long as there is war within man, man will go to war. What is within him is leading him outside himself to dare fight what he has not courage to fight within himself, namely, religious and political racism. Which, by the way, is founded upon the ignorance of the politics of religion and the religion of politics.
We need to arise where the ability to help ourselves in the light of the truth can be gleaned, for Christ sake. That avenue of expression is available if we'd only sit down and take a load off our mind and see clearly. Look at what Jesus said. See what He said in plain sight without the mentality of the damned blocking your insight.
Those that worship the Father must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth
Clearly the only solution to the war being waged in the Middle East is a spiritual solution. A spiritual way of doing something for blessing. The true concept of worshipping God is practical when such events as marching into Iraq (and other places) as the followers of Jesus did when Jesus walked into Jerusalem. This duty is the love of God, the love for the truth and the love for life. It is what will work for the betterment of the human race. Marching for peace is the antidote for worldwide racism. This antidote is needed to heal the mental ills of the people and the planet. Until this happens, war and rumor of wars will continue upon this planet.
If we do not hear Ü if we choose not to heed while war is brewing then a pseudo peace will occur as the prelude to ARMAGEDDON. My idea is the only idea that will cause us to be ONE NATION UNDER GOD. My idea is the only way to exemplify the PEACE OF GOD that I hear so much talked about but so seldom sought, for Christ sake.
Your response is now awaiting within for validation by the process of self-realization. I dare say that I have attuned myself to the Almighty for the grand and glorious idea of His Ideal for blessing and well-being of all concerned.
Write your Congressman.
Write your Senator.
Write your President.
Write your Minister.
And most of all - write home to Mother. Next to God she has given you her body.
I was taught the truth. It is the Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. He's not, however, going to hand it to you on a silver platter. It is up to us, individually and as a whole, to accept that kingdom by taking to heart the very words which Jesus stated and enact them for the preservation of the soul.
Realize, NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WANTS WAR. Yet, war is taking place. So, all are not in their right mind. Let us not complicate the war -by going to war with each other. It is bad enough war has broken out in the Middle East. It is sad that the President Of The United States has taken the action that I am certain in his heart he desired to avoid if possible. It is hell when the people who are against war - will not war against the ignorance that tears even the mightest angel into shreds.
I pray that we all support the President Of The United States, the U.S. Congress and the American Soldier who has put their heart and soul to battle for beliefs they hold dear as principle. And although we may not agree with each other - let us disagree in a peaceful manner until the practical solution I have stated can come into play as the divine resolution which could easily end all wars.
What I have said is only words until they are sanctioned by the power of God desiring to thread itself within the human psyche for liberation of all men within of all nations. I now leave you unto yourself for quiet reflection.
Isaiah 2:4-5. And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.
