MANIA!

 Fear of loosing Power?

The Christmas story has so much blessing and hope in it, yet it also has horror in relation to the wise men from the east visiting the Kings palace in Jerusalem to meet the Messiah and the Savior of the Gentiles!

King Herod, who was only a proxy King in name and a vessel of the Roman occupation was in fear that another line of the David family was going to take his throne and he was infuriated when the three kings did not return to the palace!

Jesus and His earthly mother and father had to flee to Egypt as Herod ordered the massacre of all male children from baby to two years old in Israel.

Today we are experiencing a transition of power in the U.S. that is not nice and the President Biden is proving to be no better than Trump, each clinging on to power and maybe with Trump in four years time the situation now in S-Korea will be playing out in the U.S.?

Luke 1:68-72, 2:1-15, Acts 13:23, 32-33, 38, Hebrews 9:25-28, Revelation 7:17.

His Back!

 Triumphal Trumpism for Now?

The land slide victory for the Republicans, like that of British Labor might ring hollow in the first one-hundred days in office, when we discover that not is all as it seems and that what was promised will have to wait!

Many of the current appointments may not be allowed to pass, since some of those called are not suitable for the roles that they have been called to and others are perhaps not in the right places, were they could be of more value?

Currently the pro-Israel lobby looks good, but with Trump being so unpredictable and want peace over conflict, he may go more so for the Arab voters and be more of a hindrance than anything else!

Has God chosen him or is this another ploy to win votes, we will have to wait and see if he really does come to faith in Jesus and be a true Christian leader and not an anti-Christ type?

Hosea 13:13, Ephesians 5:15, James 1:8, 2 Peter 3:16.

Raising the Stakes?

 Europe, U.K. and the U.S. over Israel!

Everyone wants Israel to capitulate to the will of the Iranians, something that if they were in the same place would not do, but it has to be this way for the Jews?

This is antisemitism on mass, when these western nations refuse to even account for the Holocaust of 1938-45 and their failure to deal with the aftermath of it, they now want to continue where they left off!

But no one in the region is listening to the hypocrisy of the two state plan and all are going at it for win or loose and Israel will win, since they are home in the promised land and God is with them to fulfill His plan and not the plans of anyone else!

Of all these nations involved many give the impression of having a faith, but the reality is none have anything, but the right words without faith and despite Israel being blind to the truth and Islam misguided God is using both of them to challenge the conceptions of western-society and all of it immoral filth that it terms freedom!

 Deuteronomy 20:4, 2 Samuel 23:10, Psalm 144:10, Proverbs 21:31, 1 Corinthians 15:50, 57, 1 John 5:4.

Lack of Trust!

 No confidence in Kamala Harris?

The United States is one of several nations now in crises, where leaders are no longer trusted and parties lack confidence in them, because they are seen as weak and that they are the only choice available to run for the next round!

Joe Biden is very much a lame duck in office and is making himself a laughing stock, but his party do not want Harris to replace him, until after who wins the elections on the 5th November?

America is making serious mistakes with home policy and the Middle-East and even now the Donald is pulling into line with Biden and wanting to make peace or appease Iran instead of acting tough, instead of just speaking tough?

Isaiah 14:10, Matthew 26:41, Acts 20:35, Romans 14:1, 1 Corinthians 8:9, Galatians 4:9, 1 Thessalonians 5:4.

Nine days that the U.K. Burned!

 British white anger against Islam?

Many Muslims believed for a long time that they have been very comfortable in the U.K. and that they could rule the roost, but after the stabbing to death by a black youth, three little white children in Southport, Lancashire, NW-England, the reaction to their loss was pure hatred and despite all efforts to calm the situation it has worsened!

The riots may have ended for now and the powers of the British government critical and unwise is proving Keir Starmer is weak and has mistakenly classed his own people in a wrong way, getting his facts all muddled up, seems a bit like Donald Trump who speaks little truth and what a disaster awaits the U.S. in November this year?

Both the U.S. and the U.K. along with many other western nations has issues with immigration and that their is both a new underlying factor of crime and terrorism at play and what to do about, on one is sure!

Proverbs 28:17, Isaiah 43:23-24, Acts 19:29-32, 2 Corinthians 1:8, 5:4, 14:33, 1 Timothy 5:16.

Human Idealism!

 DEI?

What is fueling the world order at this time and we are warned in the Holy Bible, not to be deceived by the ideas of men who seem good, but when examined we find that they are a clever way to bring us into bondage, for us who are saved to be ensnared again to that yoke of slavery that we have escaped?

Equity would imply that Satan and Judas and all like him, were treated unfairly by God and that sin can be justified as it is today with same sex relationships and the many of the elect being themselves drawn into the lies of the devil, without even questioning the matters, but rather being comfortable over the need to suffer for what is right!

God knows the hearts of humanity and He is grieved by His Ekklesia refusing Him and even joining terrorists to take down Israel in the name of humanitarian liberty, when this is a blatant lie and what they when fighting Islam call collateral damage and it is swept from the media headlines?

Proverbs 11:6, Isaiah 11:4, Haggai 1:4, Matthew 4:8-9, 5:27, Mark 1:12-13, Romans 1:20-25, 2 Peter 2:10.

Liars!

 France and the U.S. entering a State of Flux?

Nothing can surprise anymore in world politics when deception is at play and telling lies is what most of us do everyday, wither we know Jesus or not, it is the working of sin that needs to be repented of!

But with old men as potential leaders and factions ganging up to create a unstable situation is not good and in the long run it will lead to other conflicts coming to the fore, when other leaders start to counter and confuse an already mixed up situation?

It is so sad that many nations are pulling into line with the so called world-order and abandoning the truth for lies, which only leads to more and more confusion and dangers ahead!

Psalm 63:11, 64:1, 116:11, Isaiah 44:25, Luke 13:3-5, 2 Corinthians 4:2, 1 Timothy 4:2, Revelation 21:8.

Limited Choices!

 U.S. Presidential Elections?

The first thing that one should note is that many people do not want to take direct responsibility and are hiding behind Donald Trump and the President Joe Biden! Many believe that Barack Obama is leading Biden, but so is his wife Jill and many others who refuse to step up to the plate?

On the other hand many are hoping that Trump will be the village idiot for them with all his showmanship and stupidity, but none of this is for the people and the United States is appearing to the world as weak and ineffective, of which they are not come the military, but only in the political arena!

We don't know why this is happening and why old men are leading apart from what is already said, but God knows the motives behind these policies and leaders and it is He who they will all be accountable too one day, unless there is a revolt and America will loose it standing on the world stage?

Proverbs 15:20-21, Amos 5:13, Hosea 13:13,  Galatians 1:4, Ephesians 5:15, Colossians 4:5, Hebrews 9:26-27, 10:10.

Being a Believer!

 And not a fake religious Hypocrite?

Our fellowships are full of long time goers, who are not saved coming out eventually with statements that prove who they really are and the damage that they have caused over the years to many others, if not the younger generations that we wonder why they will or never have come to faith!

God tells us in his word that even the angels who broke cover were cast into Hell and all those who practice evil out of pride and other sensuality face the same fate, unless they repent.

We are told in the New Testament to speak and keep the truth, since we cannot deny what God has done in us and we are to avoid bad company, since they with the power of Satan drag us backwards?

1 Corinthians 10:13, 15:33, 2 Peter 2:4-10, Revelation 3:10, 3:20. 

A staggered Season!

 Easter-Pesach-Easter.

This is a year when Western Easter does not par with the Jewish Passover and the Eastern Church is further on still in the calendar?

So many will have the opportunity to come to faith and not many excuses since they will prove to others by their actions that they are liars and there is no truth in them!

But we must be patient in not forcing what we believe on to others, say what we can and leave it at that, knowing really that God is in control and they are free to choose their destiny?

Amos 5:4, John 3:3, 14-21, Acts 4:26, Romans 3:23, 6:23, Hebrews 9:26-27, 10:10, 18, 1 John 1:8, Revelation 3:20.

Peace!

 The elusive failure?

Everyone is calling for peace in the Middle-East, yet mention the Ukraine and it is all out war to the end and the numbers are interesting Gaza has seen 30,000 dead a Hamas claim which cannot be truly verified, while the Ukraine has seen 360,000 dead on all sides and the possibility of another 500,000 this being a real genocide!

Both Europe and the U.S. are divided giving aide with one hand and on the other a shopping list of weapons on the other and meanwhile the President of the free world is talking more rubbish to the world and home, since he is well demented?

There are many who are seeking peace in both conflicts and many others around the world and we must give thanks to God for them, even in our own lands, towns and cities, in community relations, the police and immigration too!

Psalm 120:7, Ecclesiastes 3:8, Matthew/Levi 5:9, John 14:27, James 3:18.

LOVE!

 The key to Success?

Love solves problems wither in Ekklesia, at home, work the political word, if we know we are loved it really helps to build understanding and thus many things will get solved!

We as believers know that we love God and that He loves us, but the key is when we love others showing both concern and compassion for them as Jesus has for us?

If we had more love for others most of the problems in our world today would get solved and the power of sin in the lives of many would be stumped!

John 3:3, 14-21, Mark 10:21, Luke 7:47, Hebrews 1:9,  1 John 4:10-11.

Take the money and Run!

 Little hope for black people in America?

Trump is back or maybe its only him who thins so, and we have a dotty old man running the States in the hope of restoring without dealing the real issues out of fear of something that is now well beyond its sell date?

Most of us would probably take what we can and go with it, but if we do without investment it will run out, while reality will not change since both Joe and Donald are weak men to corruption to sin, to lies, to cover-ups and much more, believing that money can buy their way out!

Why is the nation only left with this choices and that there is no one suitable who might be a bit younger and wiser to deal with the ever new crises that Joe is causing before his departure?

Exodus 23:1, 23, Psalm 24:4, 119:104, Proverbs 6:19, Matthew 7:15, John 3:3, 14-21, Romans 6:23.
