Martyrs in India.

I sit here wreaked,
God has sent me here and there for his glory, and the beauty is that God changed my heart to do not what I want but what God wants. all praise and Glory to God.

I am directed today to a video that is displayed by Pastor Francis Chan, The video shows Christians being beat to death in India. Young men staggering to there knees as others kick them in the head, beat them with sticks, stone them to death, all for professing that Salvation comes through Christ Jesus.

I am wreaked, not by the violence, Not by the passiveness of the Christians being killed while the police look on.... No I am wreaked because I wish to seek vengeance, and God says that vengeance is his.
Holy Spirit says our way is not the way of the world but of the cross, yet we Americans play at being followers of the way.
We are not yet mature Christians, those young men dieing in India, are the real deal.

So I sit here, Praying for those who killed the Christians, Praying for Thy will be done Abba, and for the family's of those dead.

Is America adopting the Homosexual life style?

Is the Homosexual agenda a small model of what America has become today?

It is a fact that Homosexuality is being forced upon us against our will by gay and straight people in America, most notably the press and Hollywood, the Babylon of America, and even in churches. Once again I have to laugh at people who profess to be Christian and yet support whole heartedly a gay agenda, and/or Gay ordination into Christ's church.

Homosexuality is a life style that is totally self centered, like Americahas become as a whole, we have become a nation of " ITS ALL ABOUT ME!!!"

Some say that Gay men are born that way. A heated debate over the existence of a "gay gene" emerged from a 1993 report published in the journal Science by then-NIH researcher Dean Hamer, PhD. That study linked DNA markers on the X chromosome to male sexual orientation.

ooooo kay

Ok I can see that point, If your born gay it must be ok to have gay sex? But what of the Alcoholic? If a person is born a alcoholic, then they can choose or pray for deliverance from this curse of alcoholism.
Born flawed, but by the grace of God made whole. I am a alcoholic but I can choose not to let that life choice drag me down into death.

Clergy and other people who support the Gay lifestyle do so in disregard of Scripture, A Lutheran Pastor form Escanaba last spring told me that Jesus would have supported Gay people.
Whoa!
There were Gay people around before the time of Jesus and yet he did not mention to take care of them like other requirements i.e. visit people in prison, or the orphan or widow. Doesn't look like Jesus said, give my Homos a pass. Sin,,,no matter how you argue it is sin.

Would Jesus have cared for them? I believe so, but he would have said " Go and sin NO more"

Many Ministers who graduated from seminary who are not Christians, sad. Scripture points to this, and how many so called Christians do not believe the Bible is the word of God?
How many Christians say that Jesus was just a good wise man? I know Pastors who have said so ,

Sad

It is getting so bad, people calling themselves Christian that I am happy to call myself something else. like Follower of the WAY. A disciple of the Christ Jesus.

What of you? Is it logical that if you call yourself Christian that you would need to follow ALL the words of Jesus?

God is our Father
Jesus our Savior
Holy Spirit our helper.

Al praise glory and honor be to the three. Abba, Jesus, Holy Spirit.
Amen

Will Lutherans die to sin or die as a Church

I can understand why the Episcopel Church is dieing and all the Christians are leaving, This is not unique to the Episcopalians, the Lutherans will be following down the path of Fuzzy Kitten Theology also albeit at a more leisurely pace.

The big brained thinkers who are steering these churches en masse must have rejected the teachings of the Christ for the teachings of Albert Brooks and Meryl Streep from the movie “Defending your life”. Where you go to a hire plain only because of how you lived your life as a good person who projected themselves into secular living.

This following of the secular churches take only parts of the teachings of the Christ Jesus and are closer to Humanist teachings than Christian Teaching. An example is Love, Love, Love, Love. And yet the loving aspect that Jesus taught was not a direct teaching but the fruits of his teachings. Love your neighbor has gone from being number 2 after loving God to supplant God altogether.

When one looks at those times when the Jews themselves were worshiping self rather than Yahweh, Jesus came to bring them back Into the fold, into reconciliation which I like to think of as realignment or in friendship with God. Jesus taught that a relationship with God, obedience to God and living for God was tantamount to be a member of the chosen peoples, and that he him self was the way, the truth and the light, which no one could come to the Father God, Abba except through him.

Many ministers in churches today do not teach this, they put there faith in the many rivers one ocean philosophy where all people go to heaven, which is just to opposite of the teachings of Jesus. The Episcopalians go a little further in that they are All inclusive of All peoples to even let those who promote a sinful life to be Ordained Clergy .

Now as a Yooper Theologian I have to say that Christianity is meant to be ALL INCLUSIVE, all are welcome to come to the father, BUT Salvation is a whole different matter you actually have to move toward God to receive that free gift, You have to first accept Jesus as your savior and then once you die to self, you fulfill the other requirements of a relationship with God out of Love, Humility and Gratitude.
The Gay clergy Issue is just the opposite, It’s like Joel Osteen preaches. “It’s all about you.”

The requirements of teachers is so severe that people who go to Christian seminary should be quaking in the boots that if they preach a false doctrine they will be severely punished by God and yet they do so Ignorantly because many Ministers have never studied the Bible, There teachers in Seminary taught secular theology that came from feel good , I’m a good person, love your neighbor psychology.
The Rev. Canon William Logan, 88, of the Cathedral Church of St. Paul in Detroit who supports the direction, of gay and lesbian rights similar to the context of the struggles of African-Americans and immigrant groups. Might as well go up to his own alter and spit a glob of goo onto the Cross of Christ, Not for supporting gay men and women which are certainly our brothers and sisters in need of fellowship with all believers in Christ but because of his fuzzy Kitten view of the Gospels.
The Rev. Logan sympathizes with conservative congregations saying "I don't want to dismiss someone else's dearly held beliefs." Umm HELLO Rev….It is your job, it is in your vows, IT is your calling from the Christ himself for you to do exactly that. I wonder, at what point in this mans life did he disregard the gospel of truth for the gospel of the itching ears?
Some issue of the Episcopalians and also the Lutherans are these,
Is Jesus the only means of salvation, or are there other legitimate paths? DUH !!
Is the Bible the literal word of God or man's word about God? DUH! DUH!!
Is premarital sex OK? Duh again.
It is Ignorance of the Bible or wanton disregard and the desire to bastardize Gods word that leads these so called ministers towards the road of damnation.
The Rev. Jonathan Sams of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, Troy , Who wrote a blazingly sincere letter chastising the FreePress, himself could use a little more Bible and a lot less fuzzy warmth of those kittens from hell. His diocese did adopt a series of liberal changes that clashed with biblical tradition and if the good reverend really believes that such behavior is not compatible with the teachings of Christ or with Anglican tradition I have to advise Rev. Sams that he might want to change from calling himself a Christian to calling himself a Humanist.
It is not rocket science, Love your Lord you God with all your heart, mind and soul, and love your neighbor as yourself. These people of the Episcopal church have thrown God out with the sweepings on the floor. So that they can be perceived as enlightened, much like the Gnostic 1900 years ago.
