And the Nations Rage

by LeeS, posted in Discernment, Philosophy, Socialism

Why do Nations Rage Against God? (Ps 2)
 God waits Patiently for His Day.

In the first post of this series, How Joseph Developed Socialism, God, through Joseph, gave the King/Pharaoh {priest} all the riches of his people; i.e., they became slaves to him. The next post, How Moses Broke Socialism, showed how God, through Moses, broke the economy of Egypt to impoverish the King and people. In this post I will endeavor to show the guiding rule to determine what God is doing today with the nations and the most common error Christians support because they do not clearly grasped the Scriptures.

Worldview of Unforgiving Piety

by LeeS, posted in Discernment, Nihilism

Worldview reduces complex concepts
Into meaningless rhetoric

The current political rhetoric has devolved into pietistic moralistic charge and counter-charge as each talking head seeks to capture the high moral ground while illustrating that the other side spews forth the rhetoric of hate. Yes, it is time for another presidential election cycle to begin. The charge of hate is the latest concept being used to discredit anyone and anything with which you disagree, regardless of the historical period or circumstances.

Justice or Nihilism

Schematic of Man’s Conception of
Good and Evil from the same tree

I read an article on Facebook in which a college-age woman confronted an open-air preacher asking why does not God just forgive everyone? To answer her question means we must understand the underlying assumptions hidden in her question. It is these types of questions many Christians cannot answer because they do not look at assumptions and implied consequences. Continue reading “Justice or Nihilism” →

God Gave Them Up

The Question Hanging Over Truth:
Whose Truth; God’s or Men’s

Paul writes in Romans that “God gave them up” (Ro 1:24). In fact, Paul repeats this phrase three times meaning that God completely gave them up; but, who did God give up, why and what does this phrase even mean? To answer that means we must go to the Old Testament before the Cataclysm {Flood} or “Back to Genesis”. Continue reading “God Gave Them Up” →

Discernment Fallacies

by LeeS, posted in Discernment, Gospel

This is how Christians are taught Discernment
This confusing process discourages true growth

What is discernment? Following the first Law of Logic, Law of Identity, this question must be clearly answered or any discussion becomes meaningless, confused and degenerates into a morass of rules and platitudes. The Free Dictionary defines discernment as, “The act or process of exhibiting keen insight and good judgment.” Notice the problem with this definition? Continue reading “Discernment Fallacies” →

Since Satan a Major Agent in Sanctification
Is he then our Friend?

In our last two posts I have laid the foundation to ask the question, “Is Satan our friend or foe in our sanctification?” This is the forced conclusion of the two suppositions: 1) Man has no free will and 2) Satan the major agent in testing us, preparing us through the sanctification process.
