5. Myth: Christ was constantly meek and humble and extremely passive allowing immoral
conduct to go on unnoticed around him. --Whimpy
Fact: The Hollywood perception of Christ couldn't be further from the truth. Every available scripture
demonstrates his demand for decency. He made commands not requests. Mathew 7:28 When Jesus had
finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teachings, because he taught as one who had
authority, and not as thier teachers of the law. Mark 1:27 The people were all so amazed that they
asked each other, " What is this? A new teaching-and with authority! He even gives orders to evil spirits
and they obey him." Mark 11:15-18 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple area and began
driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and
the benches of those selling doves, and would not allow anyone to carry merchandice through the temple
courts. And as he taught them, he said, t is written; " My house will be called a house of prayer for all
nations; But you have made it into a den of robbers." Luke 5:22-25 Jesus knew what they were
thinking and asked, Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? Which is easier to say,"Your sins
are forgiven,"or to say " Get up and walk?" But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on
earth to forgive sins...." He said to the paralyzed man," I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home."
Immediatly he stood up in the front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God.
Luke 14:6,7 Jesus answered, " I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes
to the Father exept through me. If you really know me, you know my father as well. From now on, you do
know him and have seen him. " For someone to make the posture or gesture of standing in the way of, or
at the gates checking passersby is the act that you must gain acceptance to gain entrance. It is a limiting
factor or obstacle to overcome, not someone making allowances for wrongful behavior. Luke 1:36 Even
Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be barren is in her
sixth month. For nothing is impossible with God. It has been said that Joseph was Christ's stand in father
but closer examination reveals that Jesus' mother Mary was half of the house of Judah and half of the
house of Levites. Being half of the tribe of rulers and half of the tribe of priests allowed Jesus to be both
High Priest and King of the Jews. Also being the Son of God going fot him his authority on earth is
undenyable. Mathew 28:18 Then Jesus came to them and said, " All authority in heaven and earth has
been given to me. " This statement absolutely confirms those who say satan is allowed to rule the earth
are either liars or stupid.
6. Myth: Satan is some powerful enemy of God and should be feared.
Fact: God created the whole univerce and everything in it. Satan cannot create anything. Even if he could
lift physical objects and throw them around this is trivial compared to creating something. Satan can only
corrupt. All human beings have authority over Satan, all they have to do is exercize it. When God was
talking to Cain after he didn't find favor with Cain's offering he said to Cain, " Sin is crouching at your
door; it desires to have you, but you must master it." God would not have told Cain to conquer sin if it
wasn't within his ability to do it. One of the reasons Christ walked the earth was to set an example that we
could lead a sinless life. If Job and other men like him could come close so can everyone else, that is why
Paul says in the New Testament we are without excuse. Satan's motivation for influencing people is that
he wants them to go to hell. He is under the deluded idea that he will be allowed to rule in hell forever. He
wants people there to laugh at and make fun of because they were stupid enough to buy his lies. But in the
end the tables will be turned around for he ends up being locked up in hell forever bound by chains
restricting all movement and with his closest comrads around him. The more evil they were, the more
restricted they are. Hardly the paradise he envisions for himself. Any amount of intelligence would tell
you this is a bad idea. The only real threat from satan is from demonic possesion. Demonic possesion has
lead to the murder of over 1.5 billion aborted babies and the sale and distribution of billions of dollars in
drugs and all forms of depravity. Demonic possesion is so rampant today no one even realizes how sick
and twisted thier every thought is. 2 Thessalonians 2:4 He will oppose and exalt himself over
everything that is called God or is worshipped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple proclaming
himself to be God. 2 Timothy 3:1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People
will become lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobediant to thier parents,
ungrateful, unholy, without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderous, without self control, brutal, not
lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God--having a
form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. They are the kind who worm
thier way into homes and gain control over weak-willed women, who are loaded down with sins and are
swayed by all kinds of evil desires, always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth. Without
natural affection is the prophecy of abortion. How a humanbeing can kill another human growing inside
them is satanic possesion. The feeling of guilt that they think they feel after they do this is really the
removal of thier eternal salvation and removal of gaurdian angels. Some actually feel elated and
empowered after having an abortion. This is simply the satanic spirit growing inside them.
1 Peter 3:18-20 For Christ died for sins once for all, the rightous for the
unrightous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, through
whom also he went and preached to the spirits in prison who disobeyed long ago when God waited
patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. This speaks of how when Christ died he
decended into hell and wrecked satan's day. Exactly why this was done is open for speculation but
demonstrates judgement will be reserved for the last day. If you cannot live descently today and find out it
is too late when you are cast into hell just think how hard it would be to act descently while burning in
hell. To want to get yourself out is a selfish act so you would have to pray continuously for 1000 years for
every inhabitant to stop doing evil and do this earnestly while they are causing pain and suffering to one
another and enjoying it. Life on earth would be a much easier place to come into repentance. 2 John
10,11 Do not bid false teachers God's speed. This is important, you don't wish evil people good. Let
thier own misactions and misdeeds defeat them. Don't wish evil on them either but do nothing with them.
7. Dispelling myths about Cain
Whether or not Cain and Abel were twins is open for debate but the reading of the manuscripts
could easily lead to this conclusion. Abel kept flocks and Cain worked the soil. " In the coarse of time " --
this statement is important. All of God's words are put there for a reason and this is to give us an idea of
age. Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. But Abel brought fat portions
of the first born of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his
offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast. Apparently
offering sacrafices had been an established practice by this time. Also worthy of note is that Abel's
offerings were described as fat. With this emphasis on this item it demonstrates where true allegence first
lies with God and bringing forth the best of the work recognizes where all things come from. If you bring
forth the best and give it to God, it demonstrates that you trust him completely to bring forth your daily
requirements. Keeping back the best for whatever the purpose demonstrates lack of total faith in God and
lack of total faith in God is to not honor him properly. Next Cain became angry. You can take criticism in
two ways, as constructive criticism or as an insult. Cain clearly took it as an insult. God's message many
times may be percieved as an insult but that is because we see human beings in positions of authority
insulting people to make themselves look better. God had no reason to insult Cain so that was not the
case. If Cain would have taken it as constructive criticism he would have went back to work and tryed
harder and reapproached the situation with a better heart. ' Then the Lord said to Cain, "Why are you
angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do
what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it. " ' We see very
early in the Bible's begining that God can look inside us and knows even our every thought, nothing is
hidden from him, there is no physical place to escape. It also says very clearly that it is up to us to fend off
evil desires and ideas and that it is clearly within our ability to do so. God had told Adam to subdue the
earth, this means it is mans responcibility to take care of the things that happen on this planet. God would
not physically intervene. Cain allowed evil to overcome him and he killed his brother. It was not that Abel
had done anything wrong, it was that Cain didn't want to face competition. Cain wanted to shirk
responcibility for his actions but that did not work out. God put a mark on Cain. Cain then had to leave
and go to Nod. Cain then lay with his wife. This can only conclude that she was his wife at the time of
Abel's murder. If as previously stated that in the cource of time this all happened then there would have
easily been time for Adam and Eve to have had daughters and Cain took one of them to wife. Cain then
proceeded to build a city. We take this litterally to mean a city of size and population. It really would have
been a slowly progressive thing. It means more of a fixed location to dwell with, through trial and error, a
solid structure. Up until that time they all probably were nomadic to a certain extent for a variety of
reasons and this was probably the 1st permanent dwelling. Something they maybe hadn't even concieved
of before. If Cain were raising crops and tilling the soil there isn't a need to be nomadic and with
permanent fields his work is in a single location and so lends itself to a permanent dwelling. The text says
" Adam lay with his wife again . " This demonstrates that they quit having children for a while. From
thier perspective, they must have been completely devastated. The thought of being responcible for
bringing sin into the world probably subsided for a while and being able to bring children into the world
would have created a lot of joy. Not only would they have been thier children but companions and
assotiates and all of the things people interact with each other for. When one of thier sons killed the other
one this must have had such a devastating impact that they must have tormented over the complexity of
thier grief for years if not decades. It is significant that Seth didn't come along until Adam was 130 years
old. This demonstrates just how long it took for the parents to contemplate having more children and all
the complexities involved. In a book not listed in the Bible it says that Cain's stone house fell on him. I
believe this happened. Although Cain was not sentanced to death by God that doesn't mean he escaped
justice. If God had sentanced Cain to death Cain would have gone to hell forever, not just lost his physical
life. After many years of his conscience constantly tormenting him for killing his brother God may have
seen this as coming into true repentance and God may have caused the building to fall on him to bring
about God's later decree of stoning such people to death. If God's hand wasn't in it then Cain may be
sentanced to hell forever at the day of judgement. Anyway it would have had a profound effect on the
community surrounding Cain's residence.
8. Myth: The Bible outlaws slavery.
Fact: Nothing could be further from the truth. While falsely enslaving someone has its own ramifications,
slavery was a form of punishment for a lot of reasons. If you were very poor you could even sell yourself to
someone else and later buy yourself back. Slavery is brought into effect because some people cannot
control themselves and thus someone must be put in charge over them. It is the direct ramification of
some type of wrong doing. If the New Testament outlawed slavery, why would it spell out acceptable
conduct for masters and slaves. There is no contradiction, slavery is an acceptable form of punishment. In
modern days it isn't pollitically correct to enslave someone but it is ok for them to be housed in jails and
be nothing but a drain on society. This fancy spin on terms such as house arrest, probation, and
community service are all trivial. To suggest that these somehow are not enslavement because of some
established intricate details falls just short of ludicracy. Society would be better served in a whole if it went
back to the self supporting style of slavery that was predominant through most of the earth's history. If you
don't like it don't do the crime. The problem is today there isn't anyone morally fit to hold anyone else
accountable. Satan will not hold satan accountable. He will forgive anything. Just as congress will not
hold someone accountable who is clearly an audulterer from the minute he made vows to another man's
wife and also his audulterous affairs, a murderer for his clear and concise actions stopping the pro-life
movement and failure to pass legislation banning abortion, a child molester for his actions with someone
he clearly knew wasn't phsycologically mature, and a rapist. Although child molestation and rape are
about the same thing, one is forced and the other is coerced. His clearly deranged leadership of consorting
with the enemy on the White House lawn 2 weeks after they butchered 18 Army Rangers in Somolia, to
his not doing anything in Rwanda during the 750,000 people who died in that fiasko. But his best friend
and his personal secratary are black so that makes it ok. The very first time he was asked about the
Lewinski affair the 1st words out of his mouth were " I did not rrrrrrr------ " . Anyone with even a
first grade education can see he clearly was going to say rape. Why was he saying rape even though he
was only being accused of audultry. It was because in his conscience he knew that that was what he was
guilty of. King Soloman clearly stated that out of thier own mouths comes forth thier condemnation.
Ephesians 6:5-9 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just
as you would obey Christ. Obey them not only to win thier favor when thier eye is on you, but like slaves
of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. Serve whole heartedly, as if you were serving the Lord,
not men, because you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether he is
slave or free. And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that
he who is both thier Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him. 1 Timothy 6:12
All who are under the yoke of slavery should consider thier masters worthy of full respect, so that God's
name and our teaching may not be slandered. Those who have believing masters are not to show less
respect for them because they are brothers. Instead, they are to serve even better, because those who
benefit from thier service are believers, and dear to them. These are the things you are to teach and urge
on them. 1 Peter 2:18,19 Slaves submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those
who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. For it is commendable if a man bears up
under the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscience of God. Hebrews 13:17 Obey your leaders
and submit to thier authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so
that thier work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you.
Close examination of these statements comes to only one conclusion, youn have the ability even
when oppressed to shame your masters into a life of decency same as Paul instructs married couples that
are mixed marriges of believers and unbelievers that through constant pressure of demonstrating absolute
virtue it will become contagious. Although it doesn't say it straight away , it clearly says that those in
charge of people are in the end accountable for thier actions thus stressing an exacting role of leadership
role of quality judgement. There are some things that aren't said straight away but require some
examination and thought, but are clear to those who seek the truth because that is what God is, truth.
Anything else is a lie and is of satan. There are times when one shouldn't be in a rush to judge, but be
observant and reserved because the truth will eventually be revealed. God sees us sinning as putting our
heads into a pot of boiling water, we can live through it but we are forever scarred for life.
9. Myth: The Ark of the Covenant is lost somewhere on earth.
Fact: At some point in time it was taken back into heaven. Revalation 11:19 Then God's temple in
heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of the covenant. At no place else can I find
when approximately when it went from earth but one possibility was exactly when Christ died the temple
curtain was torn. While this had symbolization of its own the two things could have happened
simultaniously. It could also possibly been on earth at the same time as Christ was because it is believed it
was Christ who was in the fiery furnace with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abendnego. Daniel 3:22 So the
two coexisting on the planet is a possibility.
10. Myth: God finds interracial marriages a completely acceptable form of living.
Fact: Nothing could be further from the truth, God made races for a reason. Ezra 10:10,11 Then Ezra
the priest stood up and said to them, " you have been unfaithful; you have married foriegn women, adding
to Isreal's guilt. Now make confession to the Lord, the God of your fathers, and do his will. Separate
yourselves from the peoples around you and from your foriegn wives." This also happened other times
and one of Aaron's boys threw a spear through a man and his woman who quite openly were defying
God's word. It is an outward manifestation of peoples inward stupidity. If you hear these couples talk
about each other behind the other back you can only come to one conclusion, it isn't love, its rebellion.
There are clearly other crimes that demonstrate more depravity but this is a clear act of defiance of God's
word. Nehemiah 10:30 We promise not to give our daughters in marriage to the peoples around us nor
take thier daughters for our sons. Ezekiel 44:22 Jeramiah 12:14- Whenever these interracial
marriges happen it also gives the hidden suggestion that the females of the perpratators race wern't good
enough and this deragatory message is inescapable. One of the first black males given notoriety, at least
that is how it was represented in our history, took white females. This should have been the first
indication of a debacle in the works but no one seemed to get it. `
11. Myth: Through some ceremony you are intertwined into marriage.
Fact: Marriage is the physical coupling of a male and female human beings. If you follow the text and
closely examine God's laws you will clearly see that you are engaging either in a marriage act or you are
commiting audultry. Christ clearly spelled out how divorce and remarriage is only not audultry if your
spouse had been unfaithful. No mystery , no illusion.
12. Myth: The Bible outlaws having more than one wife.
Fact: This is not true. While rules are set out that Deacons and Bishops are to have one wife it doesn't say
this about others. While the suggestion is made that you should have only one wife it is clearly not a law.
The probable purpose of this rule for deacons and bishops is for them to focus a major portion of thier
energy availale to thier duties to God. While some might say that to not marry at all might be the best
cource of action, this also is not true. It was prescribed at one time in one location as a strong suggestion
but one must take into account circumstances. At that time and location evil was so rampant and so this
suggestion was made to retain the mental and physical health of the congregation It wasn't meant to be
broad reaching, but was meant to suggest adapting to the enviroment. Of course one must keep forever in
mind that the long term goal must be to properly instruct people to aquire and posses the quality attributes
within themselves to not be wrongfully influenced by others. It isn't just the knowledge but the
application of it. " Yeah though I walk through the valley of the shadow I will fear no evil. " This
comment has strong suggestive terms for what our constant state of mind should be. Asking God through
the proper application of grace to fear nothing. The suggestion that one must cast off certain friends to
aquire others is working around the problem. We are instructed to act as children of light. Thus through
our own quality of behavior hopefully be a contagious influence. If one closely examines the text it says
that a bishop or elder is to be married and to have children so as to gain insight and perspective into the
problems that thier flock encounter, thus enhancing thier ability. Then one can only conclude that saying
that nuns and bishops are to remain unmarried is exactally false. It is written in Proverbs that if one
findeth a wife, one findeth a good thing in the Lord. Philipians 4:8,9 Finally brothers, whatever is true,
whatever is noble, whatever is right,whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable- -if
anything is exellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. Whatever you have learned or recieved or
heard from me, or seen in me--put into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. One must take
everything into account, having more than one wife isn't nessasarily joyful. Its main format for the future
should be left open for the person who has extinguished all other options. If one finds oneself living with a
contemptuous wife then one can take another instead of putting the first away. This is what God would
have us do. Then the first would have to compete against the other for love and affection and thus improve
herself in the outcome. Casting her away doesn't improve her at all and she is no good for anyone in this
condition. Being accepting of others inadequacies is satanic. The most important thing to contemplate is
how your female would cope or raise your children if you become incapacitated or die. Life insurance is a
guarentee of nothing, knowledge is the most important thing to impart or pass on to your offspring. A
female incapable of this is of no use to you. Then there is the old adage, more than two and its probably
you.
13. Myth: The Bible says nothing about abortion.
Fact: While it wasn't technically possible to commit this hanoius crime until recently, it is clearly spelled
out as the worst possible crime one can commit. Exodus 21:21-25 If men who are fighting hit a
pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined
whatever the woman's husband demands and the court allows. But if there is serious injury, you are to
take life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound,
bruise for bruise. Leviticus 20:1-5 The Lord said to Moses, " Say to the Isrealites: Any Isrealite or
alien living in Isreal who gives his children to Molech must be put to death. The people of the community
are to stone him. I will set my face against that man and I will cut him off from his people; for by giving
his children to Molech, he has defiled my sancuary and profaned my holy name. If the people of the
community close thier eyes when that man gives one of his children to Molech and they fail to put him to
death, I will set my face against that man and his family and will cut off from thier people both him and
all who follow him in prostituting themselves to Molech. This is a mandate that killing offspring before
they have the ability to experiance life is everyones responcibility to stop. Every one that is born is made
in the image of God, this is why so much explanation is made in this proclamation of punishment. All this
started from allowingfor the sepparation of the church and state. While in the fight for independance in
the United States many of the clergy , pastors and deacons not only set thier jobs to the side but strongly
expected others in thier congregation to join in the fight for independance. It would be beyond thier belief
that any clergy today would not all band together with arms to kill all who practiced abortion. This clearly
puts into perspective the amount of depravity that exists in what is considered to be the church. It statred
out that there should be freedom of religion but this simple statement is far from all that simple. It hadn't
been that long since Martin Luther had broke away from the catholic faith and there were other branches
of Protestant faith and so to make a consensus a compramise was made to allow for people to worship as
they seen fit. What was done to eventually come into the knowledge of the truth was vast amounts of
energy were made to educate the children in schools to enhance thier abilities to read the Bible. It was
recognized that the truth would eventually expose itself. This was also the fundamental belief behind the
freedom of speech. Although speech is itself a physical action and can be abused it was recognized that
through constructive conversation and debate truth should reveal itself to competant people and thus the
thrust for education. But what has happened instead of coming into the knowledge and consensus of the
truth through proper interpretation, more division has happened. This has come to pass because it is easier
to stay with the wrong interpretation than to change. To accept that some had made mistakes in thier
interpretation was too much of a blow to thier ego, thus they have all become stuck on stupid and have lost
all thier credibility. An example of this wrongful interpratation is that the world was made in 6-24hr.
periods of time. While every scientific evidence points that the univerce was made 15-16 billion years ago
and life on earth began 3.8 billion years ago, the Lutheran faith that I was raised in sticks to the belief that
it happened in 6-24hr. days. The statement that they park thier brains outside of the church before they
enter is well deserved. Staying on this fundamental belief has made them the laughing stock instead of the
respected,knowledgeable people God expects his people to be. This example demonstrates the complete
incompetance of supposed church leaders today. Also part of the problem that exists is that rights have
been granted by people demonstrating and trying to use a democratic process. This loses the trial by fire
meathod. If rights are worth having, they are worth fighting for, not in a legal scene but through an act of
war. Back in the 1960's when abortion was allowed in the supreme court, church leaders should have
called out the lawyers into a desolate desert and demanded that they fight for the right to butcher children.
Just as the church leaders failed to stop Hitler when he said, " You stand there with your Bibles and I will
come with my guns and we will see who wins " so they also failed to stop abortions because of thier
passive stupid posture of evangelize instead of demanding decency. Jesus Christ was of the lineage of
both Judah and Levites and could be both High Priest and King of the Jews. Being a King, his rule would
be to never have allowed such a nightmare to exist. If church leaders truly had Christ imbedded into thier
bodies they would take over all 6the responcibilities of ruling the world. If they say that this isn't thier
responcibility they are lying. If Christ could be both High Priest and Ruler and they shirk off the
responcibility of rule, the only conclusion one can make is they don't have Christ in thier souls and thus
the calamities that have befallen us. One good constructively arranged battle and all of the depraved
individuals would have been killed off. Rights that aren't woth fighting and dying for aren't rights one
should have. More than anything that allowed this to come about is the allowing of equal rights for
females. The pathetically stupid idea of a man to allow himself to be governed over by females and
allowed himself to be influenced by them defies all logical comprehension. It also came about by men not
governing properly over other men. If men would have done a proper job of leading and ruling no one
would have been allowed to have premarital sex. If the rule that to have sexual relations with a female is
to marry her had been properly observed, then sexual relations would only be done by people who could
substancially care for the offspring that were sure to result. Passing off the responcibility of birth control
to a female is to give up ruling authority, and convieniantly shirks responcibility. Giving up ruling
authority to someone who doesn't posses the ability to do the job is neglagence. One can also conclude that
to have sexual relations with a female capable of committing aqn abortion is to commit child
endangerment even if she brings the child to term. Putting an unborn child into this much danger is a
capital crime in the eyes of God. Isaiha 3:12 Youth oppress my people, women rule over them. Oh my
people, your guides lead you astray; they turn you from the path. Nehemiah 9:13,14 You came down
on Mount Sinai; you spoke to them from heaven. You gave them regulations and laws that are just and
right, and decrees and commands that are good. You made known to them your holy Sabath and gave
them commands and decrees and laws through your servant Moses. Job 31:15 Did not he who made
me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers? Psalms 51:5
Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother concieved me. Psalms 119:73 Your hands
made me and formed me; give me understanding to learn your commands. Psalms 127:3 Sons are a
heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him. Psalms 139:13-22 For you created my inmost
being; you knit me together in my mothers womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully
made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was
made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my
unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
How precious to me are your thoughts, Oh God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they
would out number the grains of sand. When I awake, I am still with you. If only you would slay the
wicked, o God! Away from me, you bloodthirsty men! They speak of you with evil intents, your
adversaries misuse your name. Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord, and abhor those who rise up
against you? I have nothing but hatred for them; I count them my enemies. Proverbs 16:25 There is a
way that seems right to a man, but in the end leads to death. Ecclesiastes 11:5 Isaiah 44:2 Isaiah 46:3
Isaiah 49:5 Isaiah 49:15 Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the
child she has born? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in
the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart. Amos 1:13 Luke 1:41 When Elizabeth
heard Mary's greeting, the baby lept in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. In a loud
voice she exclamed, " Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you bear! But why am I so
favored that the mother of my Lord should come to me? As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my
ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. " Galations 1:15 But when God, who set me apart from my
mothers womb and called me by his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him
among the Gentiles. 2 Timothy 3:3-7 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
For men shall be lovers of thier own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemous,disobediant to parents,
unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers
of those that are good, traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; having a
form of Godliness, but denying the power thereof; from such turn away. For of this sort are they which
creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning,
and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Without natural affection is the prophesy of
abortion. James 4:17 Anyone, then who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins.
2John 10:11 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or
welcome him. Anyone who welcomes him shares in his wicked work. 1 Timothy 2:11-15
Gods ways are not beyond comprehension. We celebrate Christs birthday at its proper time, when
he was concieved. Christ was physically born of Mary's womb in latter September, and it was always
considered ones birthday when one was concieved in the Old Testament.
14. Myth: We are all put on this earth to mindlessly worship God and to fulfill some higher
purpose we cannot understand or enjoy.
Fact: This incomplete analogy is about the same thing as the slogan, " Just say no to drugs, ". One needs
to understand the reason and purpose for life. A feeling of aloneness and isolation can come over us all.
Before God created the univerce he must have had the heavenly host. It may be difficult to distinguish if
they were always in existance or if they were created by God. What distinguishes people who died and
went to heaven from the angels that were already there is that people on earth were given free will. This
defining characteristic is what sets them apart. All the heavenly host, if they were created by God, are just
extensions of himself. While they be unique and have individual aspects they are still parts of God. While
we also are created by God and given life by him we are given the opportunity of free will. This absolute
individuality gives us differences of opinion, unique perspectives and goals. Without this uniqueness we
would all be clones and thus not have a desire for freindships, rivalrys, compeditiveness, assosiations,
aspirations, creativity, and the like. If the heavenly host are just extensions of himself then the feeling of
aloneness must have come over God from time to time. To truly end this you must create beings with true
individuality and uniqueness and a free will or self determination. This is the only way to have a true
friendship and assosiation with someone else. While we can never rise to the equality of God and we are
merely his children, this doesn't have to be a huge limmiting factor. So God created this huge univerce so
that we could come into existance, experiance the physical realms and aspects of this life and then join
him in heaven. We are given free will at birth, and also a conscience imprinted on our brain. If one listens
to ones conscience and does not let free will run wild then the need for order instead of caous becomes
apparent. While one likes to rebel against structure and disipline, the advantages of these become apparent
in time through the proper use of perception. If we see sin in its proper perspective, then its folly is self
evident. Although Adam and Eve had the whole Garden of Eden to eat from and enjoy all its suroundings,
they also had the desire to participate in doing something wrong. Although what is done is done, lessons
can be learned. With advances in technology and diversity there has never been more opportunity to
escape sin. There have been leaps and bounds made in recreational programs, more than enough to make
up for the enticements of evil, they just aren't being utilized. While honor and nobility can be achieved by
conquering evil, voluntarily subjecting yourself to the experiance of sin, when you know that the specific
sin you are enjoying puts you in mortal danger of hell fire, is just stupid. So in the end the reason for life
is to live it, just that simple. It is also the way to become a created being which has no end. When we die
we will all be judged and sent into heaven or hell. Christ spoke of a parable when a master gave different
subjects money. They invested it in many different ways but the one who stuck it in the ground was
scolded. So too will we be scolded if we waste our life. If we don't contribute to the betterment of society
we are being negligent. Living a fruitless life is wasting the life God gave you. It took a lot of work to
create everything to supply you with a place to experiance this existance. One also cannot underestimate
the importance of Christ dying on the cross for us. If you think Christ allowed himself to be beaten,
abused, dragged through the street and hung on a cross, to be treated in this manner so you can commit
abortions, fornicate with your nieghbors wife, molest your children, have homosexual orgies, murder
people and rob them, and the like you are satanically possesed. Do society a favor, find a tall cliff and
jump off. Test for present day teachers: If they tell you some acts are acceptable to God even though the
Bible clearly has spoken that they will asuredly lead to eternal damnation; will they, as supposed leaders
and voices of God, take your place in hell if God sentances you there, even though they told you it was ok
for you to have acted in such mannerisms.
