"America Must Choose a
King, or Must Serve King Jesus Christ"
Today many in the United States are crying out to
President Obama and Government to do more and more to fix our
social ills. The notion that Big Government has all of the
answers and solutions we need in this very chaotic and unstable
world is a fairy tale. It is one that is rooted in the mistaken
belief that Fallen Man through and by the efforts of Big
Government or Socialism can bring security and comfort to its
citizens or constituents. There is no man-made ideology or
system that can ever usher in a world Utopia of perfection and
bliss. These ideologies are delusional though full of good
intentions. The truth is that man apart from Almighty God and
His righteousness - no matter how sincere he is - can only bring
upon himself the consequences of his own evil doings.
While Conservative values (WHICH ARE BASED ON NATURAL LAWS AND
MORAL ABSOLUTES) are tried and true and are thus the best
ideology for a profitable existence in time, these are no
replacement for possessing a saving relationship with God's
Messiah (Christ), which is absolutely essential for Almighty
God's Eternal and Holy (Perfect) Heaven. The Conservative and
Liberal ideologies of the day can never provide the eternal
RIGHTEOUSNESS and heavenly necessities demanded by Almighty God
and found only in the person of Almighty God's Son, Jesus Christ
(see Romans 10:4). What is insane about our day is that
countless Americans are choosing Obama's Socialism over the
Almighty God and TRUE liberty.
“What is insane about our day is that countless Americans are
choosing Obama’s Socialism over the Almighty God and TRUE
liberty.”
Read what the Word of God, the Bible, has to say about this
question:
Now the works of the flesh (our fallen humanity) are manifest,
which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness,
lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance,
emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings,
murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I
tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they
which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God
(Galatians 5:20-21). . And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without
understanding? Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever
entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out
into the draught? But those things which proceed out of the
mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. For
out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries,
fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are the
things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands
defileth not a man (Matthew 15:17-21). . The Fallen Nature of
Man Can Never Bring About True Peace:
But the wicked (unsaved humanity) are like the troubled sea,
when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There
is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked (Isaiah 57:20).
This Social Gospel of man is in direct opposition to the true
Gospel of Jesus Christ:
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness,
and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost (Romans 14:17).
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I
preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye
stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I
preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I
delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how
that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And
that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day
according to the scriptures(1 Corinthians 15:1-4). . One must
CHOSE whom they will trust, i.e., Big Government or Almighty
God. Jesus said:
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am
meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light (Matthew 11:28-30).
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and
all these things shall be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). . To
obtain true righteousness and peace one must know the Prince of
Peace, The Lord Jesus Christ. Only through Christ can this
possibility become a reality:
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such
there is no law (Galatians 5:22).
Do you know the Prince of Peace, the Lord Jesus Christ, as your
Savior?
And there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour;
there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the
ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else (Isaiah
45:21b-22).
But as many as received him (Jesus Christ), to them gave he
power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on
his name (John 1:12).
In these turbulent days of uncertainty and unrest, may you
abandon man's social gospel and put your faith - your total
trust - in God's true Gospel that contains and consists of the
wonderful Person of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ!
The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand!
