Love unbound

 A QUESTION FOR BELIEVERS ONLY.  Matthew 16:4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign, John 4:48 Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe. John 20:29 because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed. Why do we need to see signs and miracles to believe in the truth? Don't we as an intelligent species have the capacity to discern truth from fiction? If Jesus had performed no miracles but only spoke the truth that love, compassion, forgiveness, and good will toward men is the path to life, would you believe and accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior? These questions are rhetorical, but the next one is not.  Obviously if someone came along and made the claim that he's God or prophet, but gave no compelling explanation as to why we should believe, then we should not believe him. Because anyone could make a baseless claim. But what if someone came with a compelling explanation as to...

How I became Christian

 I use to be atheist. The only prominent individuals in my life that were Christian were my mom and aunt. And I viewed them both as very ignorant. I thought the only reason people believed in God was because they didn't understand science. When I was nineteen working at Taco Bell I thought about it for a minute. I realized the "scientific" community doesn't have an explanation for how we came to be. I thought maybe it's possible that we were created by an intelligent force. What do I know? I count that as the moment I went from atheist to agnostic. I no longer had any personal barriers between me and God. But It wasn't like I was looking for him either. But that's how God works. You don't find him. He finds you. Because I no longer had a figurative no solicitation sign on the door of my heart Jesus was welcome to nock. And that's what happened. A girl I liked invited me to her church. The pastor asked if there was anyone who hasn't accepted Jes...

The great and dreadful day of the Lord

Yesterday I talked about end time prophecy concerning the anti Christ, false prophet, and the dragon. Today I want to give you the mirror image of that. Which is what is to happen before the anti Christ is revealed. Malachi 4 literal standard version 4-6 says >Behold, I am sending Elijah the prophet to you, "" Before the coming of the great and fearful Day of YHWH. And he has turned back the heart of fathers to sons, "" And the heart of sons to their fathers, "" Before I come and have utterly struck the land!” I've been thinking a lot about what verse 6 means. I could be wrong but I think verse 6 is talking about Jews and Christians. Jews being the hearts of the father since they worship the father. And Christians being the hearts of the son since Christians worship the son. Or I'm an idiot and it's talking about Father's Day.  So why would God come and strike the earth? Genesis 12:3 concerning Abraham and Israel says. >And I bless th...

Thank God the Jews like to document everything

So I just learned about this and I'm amazed by it. I had no idea that there was this collection of rabbinic writings that was compiled after the destruction of the second temple. Prior to this the talmud was a oral tradition. They called it the oral Torah. And it was how they passed down knowledge on how to obey and follow the written Torah. But after the destruction of the temple the Jews were afraid of losing this knowledge. So they wrote it down and this became the talmud. And in the talmud is rabbinic commentary on Jesus.  And the remarkable thing is that they don't deny that Jesus performed miracles. In fact it's the exact opposite. Despite rejecting Christ and his claim to be the Messiah son of God and God the Jews affirm that Jesus did indeed perform miracles. Of course they attribute his miracles to satanism and claim that he learned sorcery from the Egyptians. Not only that but they documented "supernatural" phenomenon occurring at the time of his executi...

Conservative by nature

As a young adult I didn't know anything about politics. You could have told me that Democrats are fiscally conservative and Republicans are pro choice and I would have believed you. Then barrack Obama showed up, and something about him rubbed me the wrong way. I wasn't sure what it was I didn't like about him. I listened to his campaign speeches and on the surface he seemed like a very good speaker. But when analyzing the content of his speeches everything he said seemed to be without substance. But the way the people reacted to him blew my mind. It's like everyone thought he was the new Messiah and I didn't understand why everyone was so in love with him. But like I said I didn't know a thing about politics. So I decided to become politically informed.  After Obama got elected I started listening to conservative commentators like Rush Limbaugh. And I agreed with a lot of what they had to say. But it wasn't until Ron Paul came along in 2012 that I really lea...

I think a lot of Christians fell asleep in these end times because they forgot who Jesus is.

I believe a lot of Christians create their own fictitious God that they name Jesus instead of worshipping the real Jesus. It's important to know that Jesus isn't just a name but rather an ideal. John 14:6 Jesus declares himself to be the way, the truth, and the life.  In other words truth is a literal conscious God. And truth is the way to eternal life. Each member of the Trinity represents a material concept and a immaterial concept. It's important to know that the immaterial is more important than the material, for it is the immaterial that gives rise to the material. It is life that comes from truth. And creation that comes from love who is the father. Because the father, our Creator, is love, you could say that we were made with love.  The holy Spirit is interesting. 2 Corinthians 3:17 says that wherever ever the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. Freedom is the holy Spirit. Freedom is the perfect marriage between justice (the divine masculine) and liberty (the div...

Proof of God and the one true faith

The evidence for God and God's identity is overwhelming. First we'll go over the evidence for God's existence then we'll go over the evidence for the identity of God. REALITY I'll start out with my simplest and most potent proof by asking a simple question. Do you depend on reality for literally everything? The food you eat, the air you breath, even the thoughts you think, even you coming into existence is because of reality. Reality is God over you whether you like it or not. What are you going to do? Argue that reality didn't create you?  CREATION the most obvious piece of evidence is creation itself. All of reality proves the existence of God. Because all other options are impossible, of which are only two. Either reality was created by nothing, or reality always existed.  Obviously nothing can't create reality, that would require nothing to do something, which it can't because nothing is nothing. If nothing could do something then nothing wouldn'...
