I
would not bring up the separation of religion and politics deal because that’s
not the issue, but the fact of discussing political matters like in the church,
for instance. I think politics is an everyday issue like any other confronted
by the human being and we should be prepared to face it under a different
perspective and view of our doctrine. Some pastors do not like the idea, I
imagine, because they are not politicians and bringing it up to the pulpit
would be siding with one party or another which is not the purpose of their
career. I myself do not like to mention names of people in these writings because
of the same reason. When some church leaders are afraid to “sin,” by overdoing
it, others would perhaps by showing their true color. As in regards to myself,
I’d say that this project is not mine, but God’s and I would like to talk about
Him only, although He has put it in my heart to talk about it, as I know He did
in the Christian people’s I heard on TV who
have taught and inspired me. I would like to pray for a special blessing of
wisdom for anyone who actually reads this SOS.
When
Jesus came into this world, the people were expecting a political hero that
could end their suffering against the dictators of their time. They were fed up
with the crucifixions and the “flattering” of their religious leaders with them,
but He did not play the political human game because he came to accomplish a
more important project which was to pay the price to forgive humanity so we
could enjoy what was meant for us and we lost in the Garden of Eden by inheritance: The kingdom of Heaven or Eternity. YET, in the meanwhile we are in this earth and
have to deal with the every day issues that do concern and affect us and should
be dealt with, and educated about. God blessed us with intelligence in spite of
our human disabilities and though this subject is a little delicate we should
deal with it because it could destroy us. As a Christian, I know that is what
the devil wants in order to have lots of servants to do his will right here on
earth and that is why he lied to Eve saying that if she disobeyed God, she
would not die and she believed him and what happened? They got thrown out of Paradise and though they did not die right away, they
did, eventually, and brought malediction upon all of us: for ALL have sinned and fall
short of the glory of God. (Romans 3.23) I know that the non believers are going to
say 1 “Oh, but that’s fiction!” because they do not believe the Bible to be the
Word of God, but what’s really painful is that if they do not start looking
into it now they will be sorry for the Word of God says clearly: “Every
knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall give praise to God.” (Romans
14.11) I hope is not too late then. I suffer when I remember Noah’s Ark incident where many
mocked him about it and later wanted to be saved in it. Please start searching
and reading about it and you shall learn that everything that is happening in
today’s world is a product of sin and has its roots in the Bible; in the wrong
choices made by the people who did not take God’s promises seriously. Do you
think that if Sarai (later Sarah) the wife of Abram (later Abraham) would have
waited on God’s promise of having a child (Isaac) she would have made her slave
Hagar get pregnant of her husband to have a child of her own? Of course not,
but because she made the wrong choice she had to get rid of the mother of the
today’s Arabs who rightfully claim the primogeniture or first born status of
Abram in Ishmael. And do you know what God told his mother Hagar of him? “He
will be a donkey of a man, his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s
hand will be against him.”(Genesis 16.12) Hasn’t that been true? And that is no fiction. Although, I have Arab friends from a
Christian school, whom I love, because in Christ we’re all a great family.
The United States of America
was once a great nation backed by its determination of being Christian, that is
why my family decided to come here, and for its freedom of choice. But little
by little, the people the devil has prepared to convince many with his lies are
taking over important positions from where they can manipulate masses like it’s
happening now. This once flourishing country is now in decadence because we are
turning our backs to what made us shine: GOD. Like it or not Christ is the ONLY
ONE to keep us out of drowning in the mud we have gotten ourselves into by supporting
anti Christian policies and making some so called organizations to also sin to not be
“Politically incorrect.” Because now,
the new “rules” (just like in Communism that changes all of them) benefit only
those who do what is an abomination to God, and everyone MUST accept it no
matter what the eternal consequences will be. I cry just as the prophet
Jeremiah did: My people have changed their glory for that which does not profit. (Jer.
2.11). If the rulers of a nation make an offer that
will not cost you your sweating or sacrificing, for sure it will cost you your
tears, pain, suffering and blood, but mostly, your home and later, your life.
Our
home nation is confronting a great problem but so far we have the freedom to
help it by voting smart. Do not let the devil blind you with frivolities that
do not profit. Use your senses and ask God’s help because He says:
If. . .My people who are called by my name
humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked
ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal
their land.
(2nd Chronicles
7.14)
