On Riots!
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself! Rumi, 13th Century Islamic Theologian. Comment: We lack the power and ability to change ourselves! If we could do it on our own Christ was unnecessary! To be born again is a spiritual transformation that only God can do in us! This change is an inside job from an outside source!

Race & Riots!
The events of today, yesterday and tomorrow best describe the plight of man! If a white man kills a white man no big deal! If a black man kills another black man no big deal! That is just expected behavior! But if a white man kills a black man or a black man kills a white man well this is grounds for a riot! Somehow this is a much worse murder than the regular murder? Is not murder a murder? Equal under the law? Here is my point! God judges character not race! God judges men individually and only I will stand before God for my sin! Not your sin! A white guy will not get a free pass! A black, red, yellow or brown guy will not get a free pass! In your Bible the Jews are the best example of the character of God! When they did evil in the sight of the Lord they got punished! Like 70 years in captivity in Babylon! Over 400 years in Egypt! In captivity twice! Then scattered around the earth to every nation! Endured the Holocaust! But today going back home to Israel! The Jews crucified another Jew named Jesus! Two Jews joined Jesus at the transfiguration just before his death on the Cross! The prophets Moses and Elijah! The two Old Testament prophets! They discussed with Jesus God’s plan for his blood sacrifice for the sin of the world! These two witnesses re-appear later in the Book of Revelation during the seven year tribulation period in the streets of Jerusalem! During the first 3 1/2 years of the tribulation they witness to the Jews of Christ and are warned about the Anti-Christ who they are following ruler of the world residing in Jerusalem! So what do they do with Moses and Elijah? They murder them! The whole world celebrates and send each other gifts! They do not bury their bodies! God raises them from the dead and takes them back to heaven! Then all hell breaks loose as the seven seal judgments are released upon the earth! For what crime? Murder? No! For the rejection of Christ the only Son of God and Savior! Remember there are forgiven sinners in heaven and unforgiven sinners in hell! Jesus was the perfect sacrifice for our sin because he was God and without sin! The biggest danger for the future of America is not race riots, burning and looting or Coronavirus but Biblical illiteracy! This is why President Trump held up a Bible in front of the burned out church in Washington D.C. He understands the only hope for America is the return to the faith of our Founding Father’s!

Comment on American Riots! 2017
Zeal is very blind, or badly regulated, when it encroaches upon the rights of others! Pasquier Quesnel, French Theologian (1634-1719)
Two Stages to Anarchy! Isaiah 1:28
Hebrew translation “And the destruction of those who break away from religious and civil authority are criminals who habitually break the law and suffer the consequences of their actions shall be destroyed together! They that abandon the Lord shall perish!” Comment: As we look at this scripture we see the first stage is to break from religious authority! It may start as simple as working on Sunday and stop attending church altogether! It could also involve robing God and stop your tithes and offerings to the House of God! In America I have lived long enough to see the break down here started in the 1960’s! It began with the baby boomer generation. All traditional values were questioned especially Christian values! These values were mocked by popular culture in their music and immoral behavior! The courts decided prayer should be removed from our public tax funded schools! A vacuum in any culture is always filled with something else! Darwinism and evolution replaced scripture reading in our schools! Darwin was an atheist who taught our children we all came from monkeys! This explains the monkey behavior today in America! The University academia proceeded along the same lines of thought! Today in America Universities they have safe zones where students cannot hear any opposing views to atheism! Universities used to be the platform for debate on all issues but no longer the case! Free speech is shut down in favor of political correctness! The next stage in anarchy is a break from civil authority! It is lawlessness! Police in the streets of America are being killed simply for representing civil authority! We have riots all over America yet the politicians are telling police departments to stand down and give them space to vent their anger? The police are not intervening to protect the public and property destruction! We have celebrities and sports figures not standing for our National Anthem mocking the millions of American Military and civilians who died to protect our freedoms! Politicians have carved out sanctuary cities protecting criminal aliens who assault and murder our citizens! Drug dealers take sanctuary in these cities selling drugs and killing our young people! We have an immigration policy that lets in people who want to harm us! So according to Isaiah lawless people reject religious and civil authority! As a Christian I support and encourage religious and civil authorities! Now some companies refuse to serve law enforcement people? I would suggest that these companies be put on a “no-go” list where police do not protect them! When their business gets robbed, murdered or raped they can call their mommy for help! The way to counter the counter culture is with the Gospel of Jesus Christ! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Do Not Follow The Crowd!
Those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God! The riotousness of the crowd is always very close to madness! Alcuin of York (735-804 A.D.) Comment: When I was in high school back in the 1960’s my grandfather Edgar was a simple farmer but very wise! He would have these wisdom sessions with us that at the time did not seem important. However we listened to him! He said, “Jimmy never follow the crowd! It was the crowd that crucified our Lord!” With the Vietnam war going on then and the race riot’s and assassinations I followed my grandfather’s advice and he proved wise and helped me in many ways preparing for life!
