You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry! Abraham Lincoln Comment: Lincoln was so angry at the sin of slavery that he did something about it! With the sacrifice of over six hundred thousand casualties and tens of thousands wounded through the civil war the end of slavery appeased Lincoln’s anger! However it was not enough! It required his own assassination and sacrifice to complete the campaign to end slavery! Martin Luther King Jr. gave his life as a sacrifice to battle racial discrimination! Whatever makes God angry should make us angry! In fact God was so angry at sin that he sacrificed his only Son on a Cross for our sin! Sin judged upon himself proves his love for us! He took our judgment of death upon himself! What really tops the list of God’s anger is the rejection of his love and the Savior! The rejection of your love is the hardest thing in the world to endure! That anger is expressed in the future in the Book of Revelation during the seven year tribulation period just before Christ’s second coming back to earth! The rapture of his church just before this event expresses his love! God hates the sin but loves the sinner! We have to be separated from our sin in order to make Heaven! Does abortion make you angry? Does drug trafficking killing tens of thousands of our youth every year make you angry? Do thousands of illegal immigrants killing American citizens make you angry? Did 9-11 make you angry? It made some Americans angry enough to join the military and give their lives and limbs in foreign lands to protect America! Or are you passive with no concern for our nation! I want to get all I can out of America but do not want to give anything to it? Are we complacent when we see evil? We are to love what God loves and hate what God hates! Abraham Lincoln made another famous quote! He said were it not for the Bible we would not know good from evil! Without knowing the difference our culture and nation is doomed for destruction! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Thanksgiving!
In this spirit, Thanksgiving has become a day when Americans extend a helping hand to the less fortunate. Long before there was a government welfare program, this spirit of voluntary giving was ingrained into the American character. Americans have always understood that, truly one must give in order to receive. This should be a day of giving as well as a day of thanks. President Ronald Reagan 1981. Comment: If we really believe that all our gifts that we have are gifted to us from God then we would have no problem with giving them away! If you believe everything you have is made by your own efforts then you will hang on to them in selfishness and deny God’s Blessings! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Last Arrow in their Quiver!
Dear President Trump, Look for the Mueller Team to release or leak some unsubstantiated report to the press to shed a bad light on your character just before the mid-term elections! Halloween is alive and well in the deep State! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Time Shall Be No More! Psalm 90:1
Lord God, thou has been our dwelling place in all generations. Comment: Moses wrote this Psalm and is the oldest Psalm in our Bible! What was Moses saying? Generations represent the revolution of time! Time reveals everything! It includes the revelation of God to men! It also reveals the character of man and the character of God! Time is linear and measurable! Time is the result of creation! Time does not measure creation it is creation! Time is your best friend or worst enemy depending on what you do with it! It allows you to find the living God or allows you to reject the living God! Time proves God’s faithfulness and man’s folly! Time is the opportunity presented to you for redemption! Time marches on as generations come and go! Every generation has to make a choice about God! Reverence him or reject him! After time passes for us the opportunity for accepting redemption passes! Then our choices are locked in forever! God wants to forgive you of your wrong choices but that requires repentance on your part! Humility rather than pride! Time opens the door and closes the door! Time presented the incarnation of God into flesh through his Son Jesus Christ into the earth! Time allowed his crucifixion on the Cross for our sin! Time will present his second coming into the earth! Time will reveal you redemption or judgment! Time is the best friend of the believer and the worst enemy of the unrepentant! Time allows us to receive God’s love and demonstrate God’s love to others! Water saved Noah and his family but destroyed the rest of the world! If you choose God the elements of the earth created by God will save you! If you reject the Savior the elements will destroy you! Which side of history will you choose? Your way or his way? Life or death? Sin or redemption? Living in Hell is not an option worth considering! Time shall be no more is declared in Revelation 10:6! This is the echo of Moses in Psalm 90! When judgment comes to you your only escape is if you allowed Christ to take your judgment upon himself! Have you done this? James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
John 3:16 Word Study “Only Begotten”
Greek Word Strongs #3439 The Greek root word used here is metamorphose! Yes! A worm turning into a butterfly! However in the incarnation the butterfly becomes a worm! Becomes a human! Well the butterfly was always the butterfly! God becomes man but still God! Only begotten means only Son of his mother. Jesus had brothers and sisters but they were from a different father! Jesus was unique only from one race! Salvation has come through the Jews! Father God said this is my beloved Son! Jesus was not born eternally of the Father but as to his humanity here on earth at his incarnation! The Trinity pre-existed creation and the cause of it for the Trinity always has been and forever will be! At Salvation our outward form changes because of a inward transformation! Jesus said we must be born again! The miracle of God in our life changes our condition! It is an invisible process with outward demonstrations of the change! Character is changed! From earthly to Godly character! Remember the Transfiguration? Jesus, Moses and Elijah transformed from earthly to Supernatural! One day we will have a new heaven and a new earth! The word “new”, in the Greek means qualitatively new! A new quality! That is what happens to us at salvation! It will happen at the Rapture of the Church and our eternity spent with Christ! If you can believe your eyes when you see a worm turn into a butterfly here on earth is it too hard for you to believe God’s only Son Jesus Christ was born out of heaven into earth?

Test for Character?
“A man who has made no enemies is probably not a very good man.” Antonio Scalia, Justice Supreme Court. Comment: If half the population hates your guts then you are above reproach and greater than a milk toast Christian who cannot even make the devil mad! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Why get Baptized? Acts 2:38
Greek Translation: “Then Peter said unto them, Repent! Have a true change of heart towards God understanding that your future is not dependent on your past! Be baptized! That is make a public identification with Jesus Christ through water immersion. Be baptized in the name and character of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your willful and intentional acts against God! Be baptized with the purpose of serving God by the free gifts of God’s character through the Holy Spirit!” Comment: Believe it or not this church doctrine has been controversial for the past two thousand years! You would think it would be a slam dunk but not the case! Some believe infant baptism is enough! However there is no conscious decision on the part of the infant to do this! Some believe there is no need of baptism because the thief on the Cross was not baptized yet he was saved! Baptism is connected to forgiveness but not dependent on it! Baptism is about power for ministry! It is about an effective work here on the earth! Jesus was baptized yet he did not need to be saved! Some say I am saved and therefore do not need to be baptized! If it is good enough for Jesus it is good enough for me! Remember the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus after baptism! The Holy Spirit will empower you for effective ministry here on the earth! Without His love you will be abusive in the ministry! Your human capacity will never be enough! We need the character of God to do the work of God! The thief on the Cross was headed for heaven! No earthly ministry time left for him except to say he was saved without baptism! The Holy Spirit saves us until the rapture or Christ’s return to earth! The Spirit is the down payment or escrow to hold us until his return! Remember Jesus said greater things will you do after I send the Holy Spirit! We have examples of baptism in the Old Testament! The evidence is strong for baptism unless you want to go it alone! Do not try to figure it out just do it! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
The Time is Now! Revelation 1:3
Greek Translation: “Blessed is the state of a believer in Christ as one possessing the character of a Deity who reads and hears the words of this prophecy from the office of the prophet. He who keeps these things that are written therein for the time, (Not Chronos), but the opportunity that you have now that may not pass by you again. The necessity is upon you to act upon the revelation of the truth and the time to respond is today.”
What Color is America?
Is it white, black, red, yellow or brown? The color of America is red, white and blue! MSG Roy Benavidez, Medal of Honor, Vietnam War. Comment: The color of our American flag represents character not race! White represents purity and innocence! Red represents hardiness and valor. Blue represents the color of our Chief, vigilance, perseverance and justice! The stars are the symbol of Heaven and the divine goal of men from the beginning of time! The stripes represent rays of light as from the sun! Character is chief among God and men! Nations that drift from character go into the annals of history! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Character of Billy Graham!
Most people take themselves seriously but do not take God seriously! Billy did the opposite! He took God seriously but not himself seriously! Great people make other people feel great! Pastor Rick Warren.
