It comes down to this. Mat 16:15: "He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?" If Jesus is not God then you have another Jesus. You have antichrist and your being led by another spirit. Jesus is God the Son. The Holy Spirit will always lead you to Jesus and Jesus will lead you to the Father. Thank You LORD .
I wonder ..... if someone like Bethel or the NAR began to do grave soaking on let's say October 31st because they think that date might have been near the same time that Jesus raised Lazarus from the grave. Then christians begin to replace Halloween with this ritual because it seems to be more biblical. Of course they begin to add their own traditions to it over say 2000 years until the whole world and the Church is celebrating it. I just wonder if eventually someone would question what does this have to do with worshipping our LORD. Would christians even care to look into it. Just wondering.
Our LORD set this Creation in motion long before we appeared in it. Man will labor all of his days to live here til all of his creation witnesses the sinless renewal of it. I have driven the backroads and have witnessed old homeplaces and towns that after man has left off from the maintenance of his own creation the LORD's creation takes over without any assistance of man. I say just stop mowing your lawn and step back and witness it. We labor to tame this creation for it's resources but we will never rule it. Shall we just be sure to apply the Blood of the Lamb to our door and pray the wrath of our LORD will pass us by. We are truly pilgrams in a strange land at that moment when we are renewed by the Spirit of our LORD. We need the Fear of the LORD not the fear of Man in our hearts. Just saying.
1Cor 10:20: "But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils."
Hitler and the Nazi government ruled Jews unfit for society but that didn't make exterminating Jews right even though the government supported it. Just because a state passes a law doesn't mean that it is right. We are all righteous in our on eyes and we seem to justify whatever sin we are committing. God has revealed to us right and wrong since our beginning in this world. A sin supported by the whole world doesn't make it any less of a sin. A thief knows it's wrong to steal but after a few successful attempts he becomes obsessed with the crime. An adulterer knows that his sleeping around is wrong but after a couple of occasions he becomes comfortable. A murderer knows he has wrongly taken a life but after a few slaughters he's non remorseful. A drunkard hid with his first drink now he's parading in the streets and bars with his drink lifted high. A homosexual when he first laid down with another man knew it was strange and wrong but after several occurrences he was given over to his own lusts. Just because we become use to living in our sins doesn't make them right. We have no right to justify sin in the name of Human Rights . God is the judge of sin and he is just in his judgment. So some say there is no God which would make their sins nonexistent , that means Hitler go
