The Good And Bad News

Recently I wrote a letter to my God and it came out like this.

If you have ever suffered from depression, anxiety, fear or despair, I've got some good news (And maybe some bad news) for you. What shall we tell you first?

OK, we'll start with the bad news first. The bad news you already know about! It's mostly in the thoughts. To quote Mark Twain, "I have suffered many calamities in life, most of them never happened."

That idea was also spoken by Jesus, "In this world you will have many troubles, but take heart, I have overcome the world!" So much for the bad news and therein also lies the Good News!

If you study the Bible prayerfully and honestly, you will find Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) is removing all the bad news (Perhaps you are unaware) and replacing it with His "Good News." Which is His Love for us.

Perhaps the best thing further I may say, that God already said, is summed up in one verse in the Bible, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only beloved Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, But Have everlasting Life" (John 3:16). The Bible in a nutshell.

It is the BEST NEWS we have ever heard, if we believe it. Anyway, it's a great place to start and return to for having the right kind of life and relations with Him. In fact, it is the ONLY way to have Peace with Him.

Just accept it a true and let God do the rest. More will be revealed in His time and ways. Do your best to remember it (And ask Him to please help you to, with thanks to Him).

Blessings in Christ Jesus!

Is Freedom Free?

I am impelled by the Holy Spirit to make the following statements about America's future. These are not my own words, but came to me from God as a prophecy in line with His Divine Revelation to me as a minister of Jesus Christ. And I have no choice but to warn you all my fellow Americans of the coming disasters, unless you decide to take a new path along God's way of doing things. This is not my usual type of blog article. But, I am compelled to write it, even knowing I may suffer for doing so. And, if that be the case I do accept it with joy!

America is failing God! Not all Americans however, only about half of us seem to be asleep at the wheel, so to speak, and are oblivious to the obvious facts that an evil is consuming our great God given land by a socialist regime that is  quickly burning away our liberties like an uncontrolled fire burns away everything in its path. I have seen I happening for most of my 61 years of life and it is burning at an alarming and increasing terrible rate!

Few Pastors will jump into anything that smacks of politics, but I am not one of them. I view religion and politics and economics  as one and the same in the sense that God has already shown us how these should be interwoven properly for His plan for mankind. I do not support any political platform or agenda of man. I do support our government as long as it supports us. I do support people who know that they must remain vigilant and ready to defend themselves and America against injustice and the freedom that God desires for all people everywhere. That freedom is now and has always been under attack from some few socialist leaders and supporters.. Many of our leaders are caught up in the socialist methods of political means to an end just to try to help u, and they believe they act with good intentions. But, even they are being used and manipulated by certain higher officials who are intent on selling America away for personal gain. For example, America has supported the Nation of Israel since it became a country after WWII. Why has our High leader implemented policies to support Israel's enemies? Why do we pay our taxes to support countries who are intent to destroy an old and faithful alley and a land promised to them by God?

It is my belief that our present leadership intends to ally itself with the powers that have the resources that we want and turn against the very moral and Godly principles that demand allegiance to Israel and other allies who God long ago said were his chosen people.  These few leaders we have now are not doing what God ever intended to have done. It is much like betraying your own family because we as American's began our Nation based largely upon the Judeo-Christian ethic derived from the Bible and the principles of Israel and its law. Our country has forgotten its roots. We have begun to take to road that Carl Marx and social economists have prescribed. Our founding Fathers were against such politics and actions. They warned us of future possibilities from certain people who would try to govern us with their own agenda of control and Federal government dominance. And, the worst thing is that, "We the People" are allowing them to do it to us!

My gift of Prophesy is now telling you that we as a Nation are turning away from God. Like Isaiah or Jeremiah my Brothers, America has taken the wrong turn away from God's way! It is only a matter of a few tear (Maybe 50 or less) that we all will become slaves of a totalitarian regime governed by a few economic, political and apostic religious people. The last Anti-Christ is here now! You know his name! It is just a matter of time before he and the others conglomerate there resources and power to go to the final war against God Himself! But, we can and should try to delay this if possible by getting rid of them now.

I am not suggesting that we use violence to try and stop them (Although it has been done by Liberty loving people in the past). The truth is that history even shows us that to use violence to oust the present regime may male things different or even seemingly better for awhile, but our human nature will again show up as selfish interest and attempts to control by the new leaders eventually. No, insurrection will not work anymore. What we need is a new way of fighting against tyranny within our government. What I am suggesting is that unless we all find one common reason to fight against the present socialist/communistic regime will will certainly fall victims all to the burning fire around us because it will eventually come right up to your pleasant home! You cannot hide anywhere anymore! Your obsessions with earning money or having a nice home or living in peace or enjoying life as you do it now will vanish! And, you are going to become slaves! It is a fact I promise you, if you do not change and fight against the fire and return to God!

Oh, there is so much more I need to say! But you cannot hear it yet! However, you may feel free to contact or comment on my prophecy. You may also find one of my friends a useful help for more insightful information, his name is Chad Hovind and he has a great book and a great website called, "Godonomics" that you must read. You can contact him at www.Godonomics.com or write to me.

Blessings in Christ,

Pastor Dale

Rejection and Acceptance

One of the greatest forms of abuse is to ignore. It is worse than hate. Rejection and neglect are forms of being ignored, because there is no attention, acceptance or recognition from other's; interaction and communication cease entirely and the victim is left alone in isolation. In my experience, it is the worst of all social acts committed upon another.

How much can the human soul endure these? Who can long endure being the "Scape Goat" that carries the sins of other's into the wilderness?

To cut someone off intentionally is a form of social murder. Yet, we do it all too often to those we meet and those we say we love and care about. How many of us come from a family that loves unconditionally? A family that really cares esteems, guides and accepts us for who we are right? But, do they really know WHO we are? Even if they try hard to provide for our basic human physical needs, do they know how to provide for our emotional and spiritual needs? (Now, I'm specifically referring to our Temperament needs.)

The primary failure in human interactions is based to a large extent on understanding and encouraging a person's Temperament needs, strengths, weaknesses. We as a society and civilization are leaning toward and embracing individual conformity and have not, and do not love unconditionally. That's because there are "conditions" upon which the individual must be accepted. And, it is not happening in the correct way.

We as American's have sacrificed our children to the god of conformity by the unconformed majority! You may ask, what do I mean by that statement? Simply put, I mean each person is a unique and wonderful creation of God. But, our individual uniqueness must be conformed to what God's desires and Will are, not to the material hedonistic secular ideas most embrace today. We do not have the choice nor the right to dictate terms to our children or each other apart from what God has already said.

We exist because He chooses to allow us to exist. It is our responsibility as individuals to conform to and teach our children or other's if we have no children that God's way is right and true. That conformity to His way is the only way to live to good purpose. Other than that, we are free to decide the many ways to bless ourselves, love one another or to ignore one another. But, God is the giver of right being and right action, not us. We as human beings apart from God are only naturally capable of causing harm to ourselves or other's. I can't and you can't be or do good. Only God is good and does it as it pleases and glorifies Himself.

Now, I am not saying that religion has succeeded in teaching God's way, nor has it entirely failed either. It is true that much harm has come from extremist religious and secular beliefs and actions misunderstood throughout human history. It is also true that much good has been done. We must not judge harshly any religious people as a whole just because some have misused it rightly. We need not judge the "Forest based on only a few of its trees."

Today, in our generation, we have as a Church forgotten or been misled into all sorts of non-Christian beliefs and actions. We Christians for the most part now have settled for the comfortable ways of doing our faith, rather than doing the "Way" of the Cross of Jesus. As far as I can tell from my teaching as a counselor of the Lord, we are at present "Luke Warm" (Read the book of Revelations in rear of the Bible) at best. We do not like to suffer for or suffer like Christ Jesus. And, we do not teach the bearing of His Cross as the fundamental nature of life as a true disciple. Nor, do we allow or permit our children or follow to endure suffering like and for Christ. We want our churches and families and friends to all do things according to the ways we have been taught individually.

But, where is The Holy Spirit in all this? Where is Jesus Christ? And, what do those have to do with God and ourselves? I say the Trinity has everything to do with these experiences. And, so does the Holy Scriptures we call the Holy Bible. You are saved for eternity by Faith in Jesus Christ the Son of God because of what He did, not anything you can do. Your efforts are determined by The Holy Spirit. And, if you believe and have these, God The Father is pleased with you and you are at peace with Him. As human's we all sin, as Christians we are at one with God because He chose to save, forgive, love and bless us no matter what good or evil is happening in our individual lives or worldwide. He is in charge and owns everything!

I have a little wind up toy stuffed lamb doll that plays an old tune from my childhood. It goes like this, "Jesus loves you this I know, for the Bible tells me so, little ones to Him belong, they are weak but He is strong. Yes, Jesus loves me, Yes Jesus loves me, Yes Jesus loves me, the Bible tells me so." How simple is that? Even a child can grasp the truth! So, what is your excuse?
