The Unthinkable: The World on the Brink of Four Simultaneous Conflicts

As published in The Daily Examiner News Website and based on the Christian Voice New Zealand podcast: The Unthinkable It’s hard for the typical New Zealand citizen to imagine that the country’s Defence Forces might be required to participate in a military conflict before the year is over. The United States might need to lean on its military allies as China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran eagerly…

GROWING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

Scripture is one of the most important aspects of our Christian spirituality. God has chosen to speak to us through His Word. Rather than waiting around to hear the voice of God, we can turn to Scripture and hear God speaking to us. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 tells us first and foremost that Scripture is God-breathed. This means that it is inspired by God. This makes Scripture unlike any other book. God…

JEREMIAH 17: 9 AND 10

Man’s heart is the most deceitful, God sees in it trickery’s sequel… He sees in mankind How sin will bind, In a way that has no equal! – Unless God changes the heart, Deception will always take part…. In wheedling ways To get what pays, Regardless of whom is hurt! – Jonathan Caswell

People still do not understand.

Sins aren't simply acts of evil. It's not even considered mistakes.

Sin is a defect. We're imperfect because we're defective… We're defective because we as humans have lost our true potential as God originally intended for us and the Earth. His idea of perfection is centered on what He wanted for us.

Namely to be eternal caretakers of the Earth. Plant life, animal life, nature as far as the eyes can see and it was ours to care for.

Perfection is subjective yet observable - It's universal only when it's done right.

Perfection is an 'all for one/one for all' quality that can only be met when it is harmonious. It NEEDS to be harmonious for one and all to be deem such.

It can't be achieved as long as those willing to ruin life for others still exist. Or dare I say, enforces a perception of perfection that only caters to them. In which case, that's not perfection - that's a *preference*.

The terms 'sinners' aren't meant to refer all humans as evil or incapable of doing any good.

'Sinners' was meant not just those who are prone to do wrong but to call out those who revel in their defects, who love being malicious and selfish, who love being different for the sake of being different, who love to bring craziness for the sake of craziness, constantly putting personal affairs ahead of all else no matter how small. Those who don't or never care to change for the better or help others out of generosity or even as a whim. Hedonists who care more about the 'now' than the future they claim to want to protect but fully neglects and ignore the consequences of their actions.

Sinners are those who use their faults as their only sense of purpose. When nothing else matters, THAT'S the warning sign.

Sins are synonymous to acts of evil due to how throughout history people have been exactly the same - proud of their faults even beyond the concept of human morality and common sense, and will still see no wrong in it because their faults bring them pleasure.

It muddies the fine line of good and bad to make it so their bad qualities isn't even worth arguing over... And we start to consider this normal to a point that genuinely good people are socially seen as annoyances at best and enemies needing eradication at worst.

THIS is what we are supposed to watch out for - regarding ourselves, the social era we live in, and the future yet to come.
