Wisdom and The Truth

Here is something for everyone to think about....

The following is an email from a Christian pastor and as I read through it I was reminded about the fool who says in his heart, "There is no God."

*********************************

During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who each explained their beliefs.

I was particularly interested in what the Islamic had to say.

The Muslim gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.

After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.

When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Muslim and asked: Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all Muslims, they are assured of a place in heaven.

If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?' There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, "Non-believers!"

I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?'

The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.'

He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.' I then stated, 'Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine The Pope commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!'

The Muslim was speechless!

I continued, 'I also have a problem with being your friend when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question:

Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?'

You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame.

Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the Diversification training seminar were not happy with my way of dealing with the Islamic Imam, and exposing the truth about the Muslim's beliefs.

In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. to elect the President!

Now can you understand the importance of listening to the truth? If you are a Christian can you understand the importance of sharing the LOVE of Christ with everyone you meet today?

Man's ignorance in thinking he knows all that there is to be known has always amazed me. True wisdom is gained from what we have experienced in life. There is nothing in this life that you can say for a certainty, unless you have seen, or experienced directly or indirectly that which pertains to your statements, beliefs, or faith. In other words, to say you know God dose not exist just because you personally have not experienced a life changing event is nothing less than pure ignorance.

Unrighteous Leaders

An Evangelical Christian who strives to be the man that God wants me to be and who is far from being perfect. As God desires of all those who call upon His name, I am required to share what God reveals to me, so that others may hear the truth. I am also required to pray for those who are in authority over me.

I thoroughly believe that Barack Hussein Obama II was God's chosen man to be president because this is the man that Americans deserves at this time. God in His wisdom, as His plan unfolds, chooses both the righteous and unrighteous to be in positions of authority. Of course this is dependant upon the situation and hearts and attitudes of the people. America has become a nation with many who harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in their hearts, they even boast about it or they will deny the truth when the evidence reveals their motives for this unrighteous behavior.
A great many Americans, not only just our leaders, have become prideful and arrogant thinking that there is no nation to rival ours. In their vanity believing that their wisdom, which was all due to their own initiative, has made America great. They have no Fear of the LORD, they may say they believe in God, they may read a Bible, they may even listen to a sermon, but there are virtually no changes or good fruit in their lives to prove there is a belief in Sovereign God.

God is the giver of life, the giver of all good things in life, from wisdom, to understanding. As Christians we should not just choose that which pleases us. We should weigh our thoughts, needs and desires with godly wisdom, so that we would not be found sinning against a Holy and Righteous God.
As a Christian I am called to pray for Pres. Obama and all others in leadership that their hearts may be softened and turned to the One and only True God of all Creation, the God that brought His children out of bondage from the land of Egypt, that they may be the ones to introduce the One True God to all nations. The Israelites failed their commission, to go into all the world to proclaim liberty and freedom from the bondage of sin throughout the land to all its inhabitants; so now God has raised up the Christian church to share His Word with the world.

Woe, to the unrighteous nations, for God judges the corruptible judges and leaders; both in governments and in churches for their iniquities more severely, than that of the people of the nations.

As revealed many times in the Bible, God used several unrighteous leaders in Israel, to draw the hearts of man back to a Holy and Righteous God Who desires only the best for those that seek Him.

If man fails to listen to the truth, will he be held accountable for his actions? Yes! And ignorance of God's moral laws will not be an excuse on Judgement Day.

The second part to this post, titled; Unrighteous Leaders ~ America, should be posted in a day or two.

Better Days Ahead

One sunny day in January, 2013, an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue where he'd been sitting on a park bench.



He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."


The Marine looked at the man and said, "Sir, Mr. Obama is no longer President and no longer resides here."

The old man said, "Okay," and walked away.

The following day the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."

The Marine again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Obama is no longer President and no longer resides here."


The man thanked him and again just walked away.

The third day the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same U.S. Marine, saying, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."

The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Obama. I've told you already that Mr. Obama is no longer the President and no longer resides here. Don't you understand?"

The old man looked at the Marine and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love hearing you say that he is gone."

The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "I'm looking forward to seeing you tomorrow, Sir."
