Letter To An Aquaintance

     Money is the idol of this world, not just this country. If this country was so very bad, then why would millions of Mexicans be streaming across our unprotected borders to get here?  MONEY!  (many getting government funded program MONEY in addition to many doing jobs that others in this country don't want to do because they have been encouraged not to work because they are in government funded programs that give them MONEY.)

     For goodness sake, someone can not run for president unless they are backed with, you guessed it LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY!  It is a corrupt mess. Has been for many many years now and is only getting worse. Washington D.C. is full of vile, wicked, reprobates kissing each others bottoms for more, what's that word, oh yes, MONEY.

     The  Bible  has human nature  pegged right on the mark. "The LOVE of Money is the root of all kinds of evil." Money is not of and by itself evil. It is how and what men (and women) are doing with it for their own self-aggrandizement, power and status.  In order that they may rule over and control the rest that they deem inferior ignorant chattle.

     Millions of men and women have entered America (legally through proper channels) for a chance at Freedom to provide for themselves and their family . To have a better life than the hellhole, repressive socialistic rat trap of a 3rd world country they fled from. To these America offered an opportunity to succeed at their dream.

     They started businesses, offered a product people wanted, were creative and worked more hours than they could have ever imagined. (hence we have recorded music, telephones, electricity, light bulbs, autos, radio , TV, computers, internet, and  great pizza! The list goes on and on)

     Some immigrants were very successful. And others made enough to provide for their families that their children might have a better life. That they might continue the business or choose another life where they felt they could succeed.  America and only America offered that.  It required fortitude, hard work, sweat and yes education.

     But todays education indoctrinates through suppression of any view that the so called educational elite deems inappropriate.

     They can not stand to have any view in the discussion but the view they hold. Evolution. Abortion. Christianity. Just three of the HOT buttons that drive them into insane diatribes of hatred. Hence , such hatred of various news sources that don't preach their own ideology. This is fascist.

     How ironic that the same people who proclaimed  freedom of expression in the 60's, the youth, (of which I was a part) have now become worse than the ones they protested against. But as the Who song proclaims, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."(or worse!)

     I have been blessed to have been brought up in the time I was as a boy. I had a desire to pursue a career and succeeded to make a living from it.  As I grew up  I saw early on that people said one thing but in reality did another. They were indeed hypocrites with long hair, love beads, songs of protest for the injustices being done.

     But they were only fooling themselves with hearts of stone destined to be the oppressors of the world yet to come. For in reality there is no one righteous, no not one. And all their good works were done with selfish motives of recognition that they may be seen as something they never really were. Good. For the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, Who can know it?

                              As Jesus Himself said, Without me, you can do nothing.

     Everything about the 60's and 70's  was focused on "I". Hedonistic nihilism was the mantra. If it feels good do it. Sex, drugs, rock and roll. And many believed it (and still do) It is in fact a religion. Worship of self. And oh it sounds so familiar....

 
“How you are fallen from heaven,

O Lucifer, son of the morning!

How you are cut down to the ground,

You who weakened the nations!

For you have said in your heart:

‘I will ascend into heaven,

I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;

I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,

I will be like the Most High.’(Is 14)

  
     This is the one who all that practice this religion follow and indeed worship. Oh, people may protest and say, "I don't do that! I'm a good person.  But it is rebellion against God and " rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.  Because you have rejected the word of the Lord...."  (1 Sam 15:23)

     "There is one way, one truth one life." So said Jesus, the Messiah. I believe because it was a gift from God to me. Not because I'm good. But because I realized I wasn't. And you know what. That also was a gift. I cried out for help.  And I received his grace. His gift. Without it there is no hope.  For the whole world is under the sway of the wicked one.....

‘Thus says the Lord God:

“You were the seal of perfection,

Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

You were in Eden, the garden of God;

Every precious stone was your covering:

The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes

Was prepared for you on the day you were created.

“You were the anointed cherub who covers;

I established you;

You were on the holy mountain of God;

You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.

You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created,

Till iniquity was found in you. (Eze 28)

     I see as the people of this once great nation accept more perverse ideas and practices. As confusion  about morality, ethics and even gender slam us each day from an accepting and profane media. It is happening before our very eyes. Good has become evil and evil good.

     Something profound has happened in this country. A people who one accepted a Judeo- Christian premise have turned in hatred against God. And this is a fearful thing. For there comes a time when God gives people over to their own wicked hearts to do every manner of perversion and debauchery. And only one thing can come from that. DESTRUCTION.

     For God, the only true and living God who so loved the world, who gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes, shall not perish. This God is a consuming fire. That is what this present age is destined for.

     All the beautiful and fancy art work, statues, works of man, great literature so called, even writings from the theological masters that many venerate; (Calvin, The Wesley's,  Luther, Augustine,) the ornate mosques,temples and cathedrals. Even inventions that have been a benefit to us on this present earth , all the great works of mankind, all this shall be burned up. They are ashes waiting to blow in the wind. Only God’s word will remain when heaven and earth pass away. It’s only a matter of time.   

     Do you love the things of this world?  Will you as Lot’s wife, turn around and look back and long for this present evil age? Or will you long to be like Him, when we see Him as He is? 
     Naked you came into this world and naked you shall return. For we brought nothing into the world and it is certain you can take nothing out. Where do our loyalties lie?

    "For nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account."

                           It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
