God is coming to save the World?

 

God has already saved the world and the souls of men through Christ. Revelations is not a book of prophecy but rather and eagle eye view of what happened in the Heavens upon the crucifixion. Though symbolic of Hope that God will come there are some grievous misconceptions about what that should look like.

We as faithful believe that God will come and change the world in a blink of an eye. In a world of instant “everything” we have somehow packed God into this ideology. Yes he can, he does have the total power to do so however this would violate his law of freewill. God holds firmly to his laws and will never force someone to love him nor believe in him.

Another misconception is that all the chosen will be gathered up or taken and there are those who remain behind who will find all sorts of disasters and destruction. The “Left behind” doctrine. It is in the will of our heavenly father that all should go home to the Father and by no means is the “Left Behind” doctrine his desire. The world was destroyed once by water in Noah’s age and it did not please him to do so.

Again, there is an idea of great hope however symbolically we are confessing that God does not give us the power through the Holy Spirit and that we are made incapable ourselves to influence the change necessary. There are elements of both Hope and Hopelessness in these perspectives.

In accordance of Free Will our Father had given us charge to change the world. But before we can make change we must understand what that must look like. And what should that look like? Logic would dictate that the world should be according to his holy word.  In his Holy Word he has shown us what love really looks like, so that should be the root of everything forward.

Romans 12:9-10 Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good.  Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.

Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her

Ephesians 4:2  With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8  Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Put On the New Self

3 If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. 3 For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ who is your[a] life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6 On account of these the wrath of God is coming. 7 In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8 But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. 11 Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all.

12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

 Rules for Christian Households

18 Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them. 20 Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord. 21 Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged. 22 Bondservants, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. 25 For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality.

Romans 12:10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

Mark 12:31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.

In these verses we clearly understand Love rules but other attributes are mentioned because they are also important for harmony in love. 5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6 On account of these the wrath of God is coming. 7 In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8 But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

Clearly this is a great example of what God’s nation should look like. If you meditate on this instruction and ask yourself where in the world do you not find these ungodly traits your answer surely is “Nowhere”.

We find these ungodly traits in our politicians, in business and in some everyday places in public. Science surely is not a path of love nor should ever be and ideology for governments. Science is ever-changing as it itself grows and matures.  All kinds of sciences, financial science, medical sciences, earth sciences but yes we are to love nature in which God has created for us. We must also care for it with great love.

Thoughts contraire to these principles are in essence a type of mental illness. The illness is what I call the “Bubble Syndrome”. It simple means one is only able to comprehend their own thoughts about what is right. Our Holy word reminds us that our ways are not God’s way and his thoughts are not our thoughts. This is the most significant reality that we need to comprehend.  God is always thinking about us and we should always think about what is in his heart and mind for us. Everything in society and real life begins there.  

Our Father believes in Law and Order; he is fully aware of the forces we are dealing with. Those fallen ones.  Fathers Laws and Order are not some kind of demand but rather a path to know “the Tree of Life” to its fullest. Currently we are living in the “Tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil” and it’s time to move out!

Yes, your right, we have to do this. The evil forces attack families the hardest because they know the real power is in the common everyday family.  Fortunately, all things currently in our society follow the family trends. Governments and politicians are just public pleasers, so are the all the other business’ such as porn and commercialisms and abortion markets. Every single market in the USA and every country is solely dependent of revenues from everyday hard working people. We don’t buy it they don’t remain in service.

Our God is a Father of Love, Peace and Joy, these are the things which are rich to our heart and sprit and are healing to our souls. All your material needs will be meet.

Materialism, immoralities of all kinds are more likened to a Pagan society but leave void in the heart. It is clear these things must be rooted out of our society. I know for one person to do that; it seems so hopeless however if we unite it can be achieved.

Here are my ideas;

  • 1.     Strengthen the Family in moral values and real understanding about social pressures and standing firm in your principles on all topics but especially holding one another up in dignities.
  • 2.     Demand deeper venting of Political Officials and Psychological Profiling. Identifying selfishness vs selflessness. 
  • 3.     Stop purchasing anything that goes against moral principles. Keep spending practical and save your money, that creates the real competitive edge.  
  • 4.      As far as taxes go, make as many charitable contributions you can choose what is best such as forest conservations and animal conservations, homeless or single mother missions.
  • 5.      Develop with love, no tolerance for deceit in everything. Law’s must be fair and upheld in everything, in prisons and in commerce.  

It’s my belief that when we all uphold his principles that we have made our house clean and are inviting him in. He longingly awaits our invitation.

If you have any idea, please do leave a comment. Social Change is the only way to make pervasive change throughout or nations. Le me add I am not an extremists Christian. love in itself is liberal. However our futures all depend on the strengthening of our social standards and family.
