Dear readers,
It's been quite a while since I last wrote on choosing your leader.I was reading an article written by someone in the " Good News " magazine.Could Jesus Christ be Elected President?This article touch on What kind of platform?
To quote Jesus would not stand a chance...WHY?
Americans people demand that an electable leader be in agreement with them on a range of issues.Americans want religious freedom( or freedom from religion )to define God or gods in any way they want, freedom of choice to select abortion for unwanted pregnancies, freedom to enjoy their choice of entertainments, often with plenty connotations of illicit sex and violence.
Many wants unrestricted sextual freedom between two consenting adults; lesbianism, gay freedom etc.Freedom to define their own culture and lifestyle. Unrestrained freedom from divorce.Claim to want fairness, justice, economics and educational opportunity, but all according to their own defined terms.
Above all, they want to get the leader that best suits their desires and one that can create an utopia for them.Similarly,all people have somewhat the above mentioned ideology.
For example, some people claimed, to be a " Christian ", no fun; cannot drink, cannot smoke and cannot have woman( 3 most common vices of Man.)ASK YOURSELF: " IS THIS WHAT I WANT?'
However, there is :" TWO CHOICES; ONLY ONE."What do I mean by that?First, allow me to narrate to you the true story of the miracle of healing of the blind man.There was this blind man since birth.
As Jesus and His disciples were passing by, seeing this blind man; they asked Jesus , who sinned, this man or his parent?. Neither, Jesus answered, but that the works of God should be manifested.He proceeded to heal the blind man.
Later, some of his neighbour saw this blind man walking and now could see, was curious and asked him how he was healed. He told them it was Jesus. Then, they brought him to the Pharisees, and he told them the same answer.However, because it was the Sabbath, the Pharisees told him to denounce Jesus. The blind man answer that as He can open his eyes, Jesus must be a " Prophet."
The Jews did not believe that he was blind, and brought him to his parents to inquire.His parents claimed that the man is his son, but does not know why he is able to see now. He was born blind, but now he can see, ask him why? He is old enough to be able to answer for himself. His parents answered the Jews in this manner as they feared the Jews, who had agreed already that those who confess that Jesus is the Christ, shall be put out of the temple.The Jews told the blind man to give God the glory and said that this man is a sinner.But, the blind man again answered the Jews, whether He is a sinner or not I do not know.One thing I know is that I was blind , now I see.
They told him to revile Jesus.
The blind man answered them, " Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know where He is from; yet He has opened my eyes!" Now, we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshipper of God and does His will, He hears Him.
Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.If this Man were not from God, He could do nothing.
They answered and said to him,"you were completely born in sins, and are you teaching us?" And they cast him out.
Jesus heard that he was being cast out; and when He had found him, He said to him, " Do you believe in the Son of God?"
He answered and said to him, " Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him."And Jesus said to him, " You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you."
Then he said , " LORD, I believe!"And he worshiped Him.
LUKE 16:13 - NO SERVANT CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS; FOR EITHER HE WILL HATE THE ONE AND LOVE THE OTHER, OR ELSE HE WILL BE LOYAL TO THE ONE AND DESPISE THE OTHER. YOU CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON.
ONLY ONE CHOICE!!!!! MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE!!!
ONLY ONE LIFE!!! WHAT'S DONE FOR GOD WILL LAST!!! AMEN
