So many derisive voices, so very many opinions, unmitigated clamoring, finger pointing, fault finding and tongue wagging.
Who is right, Who is wrong?
Who is telling the truth?
What should YOU do?
If your interested I could offer my opinion but please understand that I would never assume to tell anybody what they should do. And besides, it is a fact that truth is best discovered by the individual seeker.
Why? Because:
“Who am I, to tell anybody what to do?
Secondly, and most importantly, if you do not take the time and put in the effort to learn truth for yourself then you might accept somebody else’s version, which usually ends in heartache for the individual and false and wrong traditions for entire generations to suffer.
My kids will tell you that although I have strong opinions, my wife and I do not force them upon them. We try to lead by example (my wife being the better example by quite a large margin).
They are expected to respect others, look for opportunities to serve others and be self reliant as they can at the various stages of their young lives and oh yes, to fight their own battles.
We teach them to love God, their Country and understand that the family is basis for happiness in this life. Don’t let me give the impression we are a well oiled and perfect parental machine, we are far from it. But, in a large measure we try to teach true principles and let them decide for themselves.
The principles we try to instill are based on the Principles and Commandments that God has established. We have learned these principles by diligently seeking them over time and applying what we have learned.
Sorry if that offends you or causes you to judge me as some sort of zealot but just so you understand, I believe the most ardent agnostic or atheist, deep in there heart of hearts knows of the reality of God. How can they not? EVERYTHING testifies of His existence. What else can I say, truth is truth.
I have spent a few long, hard years “kicking against the pricks” that our Creator offers, which he offers to ALL mankind, by way of little glimpses, sweet little invitations of light and knowledge to learn more of Him and His ways. This light can be discerned by our Spirits. It is directed to our spirit for the purposes of ultimately guiding us back to where He is.
These pricks, will allow us to learn of Him and His Truth. We can learn how to protect our families our freedoms and experience a true and lasting joy in this life and the life to come. Its universal and is available to anyone and everyone who cares to open their heart and let the seeds of truth be planted.
So many things can snuff this light out of our lives. Pride, fear, doubt, unbelief are all things that can cause a person to reject this light, Its a choice to be sure, our Heavenly Father will never force his will on us but I am here to tell you that if you experiment with the word and nourish the seed you will know beyond any doubt that what you come to know is indeed from God and you will learn His truth. Thats the way it works, thats the way it is.
So, that in a nutshell is what, in my opinion, you and anybody concerned about what is happening in this County and the world in general should do.
Seek the Truth!
Do not accept anyone else's version of the truth.
Go to the source, go directly to the author! He has made provisions for you to receive the answers you desire if you truly want to know.
Like is says is James, Chapter 1 verse 5:
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”
By the way, you have already chosen Gods way once. Your being here in this life with a flesh and bone body is proof of the choice you made when we all lived with our Heavenly Father before we came to this life. You may have heard about “The war in heaven”? One third of those who were with us in this pre earth life chose another way, Lucifers way, and that battle is still raging.
Next, "Peeling the Onion".
