What about this whole “God” thing? … What about this whole “religious” thing? …
FIRST OF ALL … If you want to know something, you have to study the subject … That certainly applies when studying the things of God and scripture … Even more so ...
The problem and challenges I see in our society and culture today … Revolve a lot abound this soundbite, instant gratification world we live in … And a lot of people are glued to their laptops, computers, phones, and ipads …Very rarely dipping their toes into the real world …
Back to the subject … If one has any true knowledge of what’s actually in “The Bible” including the Old Testament in its entirety, and the New Testament in its entirety … One has to study (and believe it or not) ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit … To give you discernment about the challenging things that are in The Bible … A horrible flaw in human beings, seems to me, to be … If we don’t understand something … We tend to blame our inability to understand, on everyone and everything but ourselves … a lot of people might say something like this … “God’s word is flawed, God Himself is flawed … Because there certainly couldn’t be anything wrong with little old precious, special me” …
In my opinion, there is a basic concept taught throughout God’s word … Through all the characters, all the stories … All the parables … All the prophecies … All the history … And that is this … Throughout the whole ordeal of humanities struggle we realize that in the end, we find that God is either our judge or our advocate … This is the main thing we need to know … We being the created, need to stop defacing and defaming the creator of the universe, because of our selfishness, limitedness, horribleness … And understand without God The Father’s provision through his Son, and the Holy Spirit … We are trapped in a world controlled by Satan and the spirit of death … Just have a look around you, the spirit of lawlessness and Anti-Christ is everywhere … And the thing is, that God is aware of it … More than aware of it … His Word predicts it … I might continue with this train of thought, I don’t know right now … Continue it on your own …
