A Look at the Book #281
The Devotional
What does Papa “J” Say?
Failing to see that the wisdom of God is not dead but very much operational is to fall into the trap of global deception. The wealth of a nation is destroyed, the road of righteousness will be full of pot holes and justices will be socially corrupt. Proverbs 8:19-20
This weekend we are going to a Bible Conference, this will be very helpful to us in the future as it does address many of the problems that we are facing in the United States today. For example the problem of social justice which is a major theme of the conference and how that ties into the areas of our personal life of work, maintenance of liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In the recent past we have bounced around the critical issue of our nation which we are about to lose. We have talked a little about the grace of God and we are now looking briefly at spiritual warfare. All three of these critical subject are serious, but many of us are not concerned or see the serious problems we face, many believe that government will come to the rescue, no government will fail. So we really need to wake up and stop pretending that all is well, that this is just a bad dream and as soon as I awake life will return to the way it was. Well guess what, “the way it was is the way it is”. Just as there is no such thing as reincarnation, there is no such thing as returning to the past. You and I are in this together, your here for a little while on this planet, if you are above the age of fifty, you may not be alive in 2025 and if you are your production will be at best a zero on the scale of one to ten. “So what” you say? We have committed adultery with the devil and the Living God is upset. Proverbs 5:1-13
The Gospel of John
John 18:19-24 The word of God is not some deep dark secret, the world around us is in full view and creation itself reveals the light of the glory of God. The judges and high priests who set on the thrones of religion and government do not get into these positions because they are dumb. Caiaphas knows Jesus and he knows the doctrine and His disciples, but what he knows he uses against Jesus. See verse 8 of John 18.
The high priests of religion and the judges of government today are no different than those during the life and ministry of Jesus. Religion is deluded human good and evil and so are the judges of the government over us. Most of us are satisfied with this because we have been taught to live within these two conditions as best we can.
You have heard and probably said this your self, “Well, I do the best I can”! Or “I can't do it all”! Well, no you cannot, nor are you expected to. Why, Because Jesus has done what no one else could do. HE IS RISEN! God is not dead, God's Word is very much alive, seated at the Throne of God at His Righteous right hand. The witness of His death and resurrection is as real today as the days in AD 33 when He died for your sins and mine as the LAMB of and was raise to life again three days later. The KING is coming, Jesus is the KING of kings and LORD of lords.
