- “I never met a man I didn’t like!” Will Rogers said that. Well, God never created a human being He didn’t love. “For God so loved THE WORLD that He gave His only begotten Son….”
- How tragic it is that Satan has foisted off upon much of the professing Christian world that God has no real concern for most of the human family. If one is born into an era and area where a false religion is the only spiritual knowledge available, well, that’s just too bad. Indoctrinated into the Hindu religion from infancy forward, then living and dying gripped in the darkness of that religion never once hearing the truth of God, well, it is a pity for sure. Many believe such BILLIONS die lost and without hope. All that awaits them in eternity is hell fire, whether it be but momentary or endless, still that is their fate. Can’t you see what a diabolical doctrine and belief that really is? If preachers would just let go of their pride, maybe they could also let go of some of their errors. And if those who call themselves “New Testament Christians” could only come to see that a New Covenant believer accepts the Hebrew scriptures as God’s holy inspired Word as well as accepting the inspiration of the Greek scriptures, then maybe they could accept the mighty truths God speaks forth through His ancient, anointed prophets.
- I learned a long, long time ago that most preachers do not think too deeply. They might be clean-living, honorable, law-abiding folks, even good husbands and fathers, but, for the most part, they are steeped in wide-ranging error. It never seems to dawn on them that for CENTURIES New Covenant believers had no New Testaments! For ten years or more God’s true church, New Covenant believers, didn’t even have one single apostolic letter or epistle! The ONLY Word of God they had to guide and enlighten them was the Hebrew scriptures, what would CENTURIES LATER come to be called “The Old Testament!” I also learned long ago that most preachers are extremely narrow-minded. If they detect one is saying something counter to what they already believe, they don’t want to hear it. They immediately turn a deaf ear to the speaker or stop reading something someone has written if it is not in full agreement with what they already believe. It appears they think themselves to be infallible! This is the main reason a Presbyterian minister remains a Presbyterian minister all the days of his life. (Place ANY denomination you wish in that last sentence and it will still fit perfectly.)
- Folks just don’t PROVE their beliefs. They just accept them and hold on to them till their dying day. That’s a character trait shared by almost all of humanity. I was never blessed with material wealth. I have been a common laborer all the days of my life – now eighty-two years long. But God graciously and freely gave me a tremendous wealth of spiritual knowledge and enlightenment many years ago. And He gave me that quality lacking in much, if not most, of humanity – a truly open mind. He gave me the power to reason, to think, to examine, to weigh carefully, to check and cross-check and then to accept and believe the truth. Therefore, I am an extremely wealthy man. I now share my wealth daily with others only to find that my coffers remain full and are ever over flowing. You, my reader, have just been given a goodly portion of that wealth.
