God Says - Man Says



God Says – Man Says

Who would have thought I would experience such a time as this, a time of great technology and of great darkness in the hearts of mankind, a time of disregard for what God has stated clearly in His written word.

It is the day after the Supreme Court of the U.S.A. has entered into conflict a second time, in my lifetime, with God’s law, first it was the taking of a child’s life for any reason, and now it is marriage.  And it should be very clear that any court that has no regard for the law of God would not have any regard for the laws of man.

It was 4:45 A.M. when I awoke and my heart and mind were full of what God has said in the Manufacturers Hand Book on living life on planet earth, as apposed to what the highest court in the land has said.  Jesus has said; “So have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” (Matthew 10:26-28)

My reference in presenting this case is the Bible, and we will begin in Genesis chapter one, verse one, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”  In Romans 1:18-25, God has addressed those who have a problem with His total authority over all mankind and that includes 10 judges of what is called the Supreme Court.  And verse 27 of chapter one states, “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”  Now it may have been awhile since you read Genesis chapter one, it’s all about God and how he saw that man needed a partner and how God put Adam to sleep and took a rib from him and made a woman.  And God established the definition of marriage in verse 24-25; “Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.”

Darkness is just the absence of light, and it is time to share the truth with this present darkness, it is wake-up time for the Church.  Romans 1:26-32 does not leave any doubt about what God has stated on homosexual behavior, and our Supreme Court has joined those God is talking about in verse 32, “Though they know God’s decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.”

This paper will be considered by many to be hate-speech, but there is not any hate in my heart, only a deep burden for what is coming on the United States because of the actions of 10 people.  I am not an alarmist but it is my belief that priest and preachers who refuse and even churches will be persecuted if they refuse to be part of this shameful act.  But take heart for Jesus has stated; “This will be your opportunity to bear witness. Settle it therefore in your minds not to meditate beforehand how to answer, for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict. You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and some of you they will put to death. You will be hated by all for my name's sake. But not a hair of your head will perish. By your endurance you will gain your lives.”  (Luke 21:13-19 ESV) 

In light of my past Experiences, my Current circumstances, and my future hope and dreams what’s the Wise thing to do? (Andy Stanley)  I will follow Jesus!
