WHERE ARE THE GODS III- The conclusion of the matter.

The great teacher and the wisest king who ever lived, carefully observed life and all the machinations of man and reached the conclusion that all amounts to vanity. In the peak of man's iniquity we seek to answer the question: where are the gods?

From the two previous volumes on this subject, we see that man's abstract and tangible gods have grossly failed him: Philosophy, logic, so called primodial beings and ancestral spirits. There is the incontrovertible reality of the existence of certain supernatural elements that have had a strong influence on the civilizations of man in times past. That they are still influencing the trajectory of man's endevours is no excusable fact. However, the issue to settle is that as much as they have defined or given form to the present cosmos, there still remains providing, once and for all, a solution to man's insatiable hunger for a fellowship with the supernatural. It is rather comical to believe in deities who can not provide a panacea for man's disease called "corruption" but amplify the problem, masking in in elaborate ceremonies and rites.

The failing politics, economies, families, religious systems et cetera, all allude to the futility of the efforts of the gods (whether they be our own mental contraptions or some spiritual beings) to keep us enclosed in their thick cloud of ignorance and entrapped in their maze of confusion. Very gradually, the world is wakening to the knowledge of the source of all that was, is and will ever be- the one true God. He is not the essence of some religion as some wiish to see it. Rather, he is a personal God who wants a personal relationship with his creation! You can not find him in any religion because religion is a system that derives from elaborate laws, methods, deceptions and coercing. He is the one revealed in every awe of nature, the one revealed in the greatest awe of all eternity, Jesus, the anointed on e and His anointing. Every believer who has broken free from the shackles of religion, tradition and mechanical Christianity, understands the depth of what I'm talking about. Every babe has the prospect of growing into the fulness of this knowledge and every one who does not believe is invited to have a tiny, little faith and believe.

Satan and his cohorts have sought to keep us in the abbys of ignorance. Praise God for redemption. Now the conclusion of the whole matted: Fear God and keep his command for this is the whole duty of a man (Eccl 12:13).

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

Thankful Thinking and Thanksgiving

I have a thought to share this morning. It is on the Thankful thinking and Thanksgiving.  One book of the Bible I really love is the Psalms. I love it because I can identify with it. It is a picture of the relationship between humanness and divinity, insufficiency and all-suffifiency, fallibility and grace. It is a picture of us and God, us swallowed in as we are, in His accommodating grace. David, expresses the principle of the success of this relationship in faith (conviction), trust and absolute dependence.  Thanks flows from a mind that acknowledges provision from a posture of dependence. Paul said we have no bragging rights because there is nothing we have that we have not received (1 Co 4:7). Our ingratitude therefore comes from our ignorance of our plant-to-soil kind of relationship with divinity as set forth by the law of creation: no creature is independent of its creator, every creature draws sustenance from its creator, the creator is source and sustainer of...

Test of Vision and Purpose.

What is Vision? VISION IS A MENTAL PICTURE OF A PREFERABLE FUTURE. It is the ability to see the end of a thing before the beginning. In Gen 1:26, God made male and female in his own image and likeness (all of this was in God's vision, these things were not yet in the physical, they were in the mental realm). In Gen 2, we begin to see how God actually carried out his mission to translate his vision into reality. I prophesy into your life that your dream will not die. If you can dream it, you can achieve it. We see how that there had to be a man to till the earth before seed could grow. What about the man in Genesis 1? He was in the vision realm then. God had to put adam into a deep sleep to produce Eve. What happened to the male and female in Genesis 1? Genesis chapter 1 is an account of the mental picture of the God of all creation, Genesis 2 shows us the process. God created time so that the things in the spritual can pass through the proess of manifestation. Every thing in the ...
