Right and wrong

 And this episode will be exploring how right has become wrong and how wrong has become right. we will be concentrating our focus on the mechanisms that are responsible for these injustices, we shall be examining the scriptures that relate to these topics. Because We are living at a time when we see the accelerated expansion of evil, men calling right wrong and wrong right; when evil is called good and good is called evil, a time when the spirit of dumb has taken hold of men’s minds, a time when common sense is no longer common, a time of frustration and anguish over the least little thing.  A time when society has lost its way and is rapidly heading toward the day of destruction, or the day of the Lord. See Matthew chapter 24, Isaiah Chapter five and 2^nd Timothy chapter 3 and 4.

The Rise of Racism:

Racism is a new concept in human history but its roots go way back before history was recorded to slavery. We want to look at how this practice was used to exploit one person or groups over the other. We know from history that slave existed in Egypt and Mesopotamian, and from the scriptures and Jewish literature, Abraham and Sarah had a slave, Hagar, who was purchased in Egypt and Eliezer who was given to Abraham by Nimrod of Shinar so the legend goes. From there the practice has continued and is having a resurgence in present times. 

For the Christian the scriptures clearly gave the instruction as to how you were to treat your slaves, just like brothers especially Christians as stated in the first chapter of Philemon. Many so-called Christians in the American’s clearly ignored his instructions however. The practice of slavery was instituted because those who held the power were able to suppress those who did not. The underline root causes were economics, punishment for those who broke the law, control for those who were conquered in battle, and finally as a mean to repay debts owed.

 I do want to point out that many in the States opposed slavery but at the birth of this nation every state supported the practice.  Virtually everybody agrees that slavery was wrong and inhumane.  And yet it continued with every state supporting it, the constitution clearly give equality to all men and from what I was told, the hope of future redemption for the African man which took another 200 years to be realized.  So what happened ?

Well In order to make wrong right, To justify slavery these arguments were used in the America’s, it's natural that some people are slaves, slaves aren't human beings, it is good for slaves, slavery would be too difficult to abolish, slaves are essential to sustain industry, it is acceptable in this culture, slavery is a useful form of punishment, abolishing slavery would threaten the structure of society, living as slaves is better than starving to death and freeman should be able to become slaves if they wanted too.  These deceptions and excuses, gave rise to white privileged, along with the rewriting of history to promote one’s ethnos over the other, this ingrained a since of superiority to those in power. Which in turn sparked the seeds that brought about the rise of modern-day racism in America.

Racism wasn’t only exclusive to the African in the Americas but the Indian and Asian and certain groups of European, were discriminated against as well.    

European expansionist used division, deception, conquest and bribery as a method of control. The pitting of one group against another, the braking of agreements. The taking of land and property by force, and the use of payola for gain. These seeds spark the divisions we see in many western cultures today. These issues weren’t only an American problem.  In China, Japan, and India, caste systems, favored one group above another, the same could be said for Europe, the Middle east, Africa, and Mesoamerica. the miss treatment of fellow humans was a planet wide phenomenon, and its justification, for such actions as well.   

 

 Abortion, is it murder or is it choice?

See video link: http://www.youtube/watch?v=A16gzm9eaa8  EX- abortion doctor tells his shocking truth.

In current times, economics is the driving force behind abortions. Its combined annual revenue is 1.3 billion US including approximately $530 million and government funding, but in the past, pre-marital pregnancies were frowned upon in society, the entire family boar the shame, so most were done on the down low. But it’s big business today. Major campaigns have been organized to white wash the murder of these little ones. Now, we don't associate abortion with murder or the taking of a life, but it’s now is an act of free choice, supposedly somewhere in the constitution a woman has the rights over her body even over the right of the unborn. It moved from a moral issue to that of a social one.  There are two main arguments, and all others stem from these. Fetuses are considered non-human because they don't have a conscience or the woman has a right to do what she wants with her body. I not saying that there are no instances where an abortion may be needed, such as in a life-or-death situation or rape, but the taking of a life is murder, that is the basic issue not choice, because your will have to answer for it in the judgment. The Scriptures states that life is precious and that children are a gift from God.  Everyone participating in this act needs to understand the ramifications. See psalm 127:3

Their arguments to justify abortion to make right wrong are, they believe women have a right to choose because the consequences can be physical, psychological, and sociological. The other argument is at which Stages of birth, or at Conception is the fetus human, some argue at implantation, when the egg attaches to the wall, others at quickening when the fetus moves are when the tissue begins separating, some when brain activity begins, and others at viability, when the fetus can survive outside of the womb. The taking of a life is murder, and that is just wrong, anyway you look at it.

 Sexual perversion and behaviors:

Being a heterosexual was once normal behavior but now you have a phobia if you are straight; The issue of Homosexuality, men who lay with other men, we're once called sodomites and it was deemed abnormal behavior but now those who are heterosexual have been deemed abnormal, and are labeled homophobic. The homosexual movement has twisted a moral issue and turned it into a media frenzy, flooding the air- ways with their propaganda and an attempt to normalize their behavior thus making wrong, right.  1 Corinthians 6:9-11 ⁹ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor ^[a]homosexuals, nor ^[b]sodomites, ¹⁰ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were ^[c]sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

Next, society is denying “pure science” and genetics, X Y and X X chromosome were once used to distinguished between a man and a woman respectively, but today we use terms like transgender, and gender-neutral to identify individual’s gender. God’s natural order was one man and one woman and they were to be joined together in marriage.  This is the world the next generation has to grow up in. This is also a sign that this age is collapsing from within. The changing of morals, to that of social issues, is how what was once clearly right is now becoming skewed and twisted, wrong slowly morphing into right.

Lying: the practice of deception

I have never seen a person tell as many falsehoods as the former President,  Mr. Trump. It is estimated that He told 30573 false or misleading claims during his 4 years in office, but. what shock me even more, many people weren’t even bothered by it. See https://www.openbible.info/topics/deception

 

The scriptures make it very clear that in the latter days, deception will be prevalent. There are multiple warnings about not being deceived. So, the question is, if you practice deception, doesn’t that make you more susceptible to being deceived? I personally believe the former president was a type of the man of sin that is to come. Don’t confuse what I am saying, there were many Individuals who were believed to be the antichrist starting with Nero, and in modern times, Hitler.  What I look for are patterns, tactics and strategies that men used to rise to power. Let us take the former President as an example, consider his behavior, he was the catalyst, that trigger deep seated hatred that some individuals held in check. Most presidents answer the Congress but the Congress answers to him. Many admired Him and held him in God like esteem, because he answered to no one, He lied to get ahead, used his office to make 1.3 billion dollars ignoring the law. He was the total opposite of what our lord called us to be. The same could be said for Hitler. He used lies and deception to get ahead, Turn one ethnos group against another, and murdered millions.  Empires have been built and destroyed by deception been never before has it been so wide spread as it has today. What makes today so different?

The media, from large Corporations and governments right down to a single individual, they all have a voice that can be heard worldwide. Television and news outlets control what’s being said, how it’s being said, and what’s not being said. But the internet has let the genie out of the bottle, individuals now have a voice, and that voice can be filled with lies and deception, many seem to favor and believe those lies, if it benefits them or not, regardless of the facts. Today the masses seem to favor anything but truth. Jesus is the truth but the world has rejected him in favor of the lie. I want to stress this point, if you reject the Truth, you will succumb to the lies.  

 

Greed, is it good or is it idolatry?

“For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the father but from the world” (1 John 2:16) “But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs” (1 Timothy. 6:6-10). That was just a few of the instances of scripture related to greed and its companion power. The need to control men’s lives  is also one of its  by-products associated with greed.

Big pharma is a prime example of greed and power unchecked, they play with people’s lives and health for profit. Over charging for needed medicines, and on the other side pushing medicine that people done even need, hence the opioid crises. With their vast wealth they use their capital to influence law makers to look the other way. These are not the only culprits who take advantage of the system to fill their coffers. The world is filled with them, from the largest corporation to the smallest mom and pop shop but I want to focus in on the main institution who promotes wrong over right and that is as I stated before the media. Television, music, the internet, and Movies, these outlets promote wrong being right and right being wrong more than any other. They have the greatest influence over our culture. They promote perversion and sexual sins as being normal and good, deception and lying as being respectable and acceptable. They blaspheme the creator and promote the Satan as being their liberator and savior. Many in the entertainment business shed their morals and compromise their beliefs for profit, and to influence others.

Woe unto This next generation except for God’s grace, they have no clear guide lines to follow

Isaiah 5:20 to 24

Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Woe to them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!

Woe to them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:

Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!

Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble, and the flame consumes the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

Understand this, if you reject Jesus’s deliverance and his freedom from sin, your will get the desires of your heart, a life of eternity with the Satan and his punishment. Choose Life.
