Nation Divided

7 Replies

If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. Mark 3:24-25

Can America survive as a divided nation? The simple answer is No, as Jesus taught us a Kingdom divided will fall, so what can we do to bring a nation back together? The simple answer is we need to make Jesus the center of our lives. We need more of Christ and less of us (John 3:30)

Jesus taught us to Love our Neighbor as ourselves (Mark 12:31) So who is our neighbor? Our neighbor is everyone, until we start to accept one another for who they are, we will always be divided. Jesus always taught us to Love our enemies (Matthew 5:44) even those who persecute us because of our faith, we should pray for them and remain to live in peace.

Why must we do this? Because even though we were sinners Christ died for us and God demonstrated his love for us (Romans 5:8) We can only overcome evil with love, we cant repay evil with evil (Romans 12:17)

Love is patient, Love is kind, Love never fails (1 Corinthians 13) The only way to restore a divded nation is with Love, the Love that Christ has shown us in Jesus Name Amen

AGAPE

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

How do you show love? How do you know if someone loves you? God demonstrated his love for us when Jesus died for us on the cross. Jesus said there is no greater love than to lay down his life for his friends (John 15:13) Not only did Jesus display his ultimate love for you but he also considers you his friend

Many consider love to be a feeling or emotion but Love is an action. Love is patient, Love is kind, Love isn’t proud (1 Corinthians 13) these are all actions to display our true love. Just as God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son to save us from our sin (John 3:16)

This kind of love is called “Agape” which is not to be confused with Brotherly Love. Agape love involves faithfulness, commitment, obedience, and self-sacrifice, this is the kind of love God has demonstrated to us because God is Love (1 John 4:8)

Because God loved us and showed us grace and mercy, we can love each other (1 John 4:11) While we were Gods enemies, he still showed us mercy and love through Jesus Christ (Romans 5:10) Therefor if God granted us Love and mercy, shouldn’t you do the same?

Do you demonstrate love to others? Remember Love is more than just words its an action, just as Faith without works is dead (James 2:14), Love without action is empty in Jesus Name Amen

Gods Image

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26

The recent events that happened at the Cincinnati Zoo involving a gorilla and a 4-year-old boy has been disturbing. The fact that some people would even hesitate to save a child’s life in favor of animal baffles me. When did we start to value animals over humans?  The fact that so many people showed little regard for a child’s life is evidence Satans plan is working.

And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:23

God has created us in his image to rule over all the animals upon the Earth. Yet we now adopt animals, dress them in clothes, and call them fur babies.  God never designed animals to be our family. Society has gone to great lengths to even worship animals and put them on a pedestal

Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him. Psalm 127:3

We treat abortion like a common surgery, since Roe vs Wade has passed theres been an estimated 60 million children killed in America. What does this have to do with the gorilla at the zoo? Simple the value and sacredness of children is gone in America. Society treats them like a disposable problem

 

Could it be the teachings of Evolution have even lowered our sacredness of humanity also? Public schools and colleges teaching our children that we are relatives to monkeys, takes away the purpose God has designed us for. Desensitizing children to believing that our equal to animals is Satanic.

Many will mock this post and possibly even hate me for it, but God is speaking to me. Wake up every one! God created you in his image not evolved from a monkey. Let us remember to love one another and cherish the blessings of children in Jesus Name Amen
