gods
This blog popped into my head the other day when I was talking to other Christians about Genesis. It went a little crazy and when one went to reach for the Bible to pull up a scripture, I quoted the scripture to her before she even found it. It was sorta strange that these people would freak out on me about this... I am not changing anything. Well, I might like to change our way of thinking... not so much Hollywood stories, which are beyond belief.
Its funny when you start to speak the truth everyone freaks out. Its new... Uh, no... it isn't!
But I am not going to get into Genesis here in this blog because its gonna need its own blog.
Well, I have been going through some really hard times. I emotionally broke down... 3 times the last 24 hours. But my Lord and Savior Jesus kept me from falling to far away. Because it was a sense of self and I wanted to be as far away as possible... and its hard not to do because I know there are several people who would come get me in a heart beat... but... I must stick with it and fight the demons.
I was so upset I wanted to just quit. And that upset me even more.
I really don't want to quit.
This may not be the life I had planned for me... but it is the one GOD gave me and I have to do what I have to do when I have to do it... because it does me no good to argue with GOD... I always end up feeling bad and doing things HIS way in the end. After all, I did choose HIM.
And I am always daily grateful for the safe home and the family who loves me!
So anyways... I wanted to talk about the gods...
We know there are many...
Remember GOD said, "I am the Lord thy GOD you shall have no other gods before me!"
Well, HE is admitting right there that there are other gods... and I mean beyond the ancient Greek gods that we hear so much about. Although they were... god like... :)
I am active on yahoo news boards... and someone said something today that really cut to the core... and that was the Bible was fairy tales. And I got to thinking how many people really believe that? Well, if I was to believe Hollywood, well... I wouldn't believe. In fact I think I blogged about when I saw a TBN movie that had the prophet Samuel kissing David on the mouth... oh wow... just the thought of it burns me up. So we cant always believe the Hollywood version of the Bible.
I love the King James version I was brought up on it... but when I was early 30's I asked my Grandmother... well actually I didn't ask her, she asked me what I wanted for my birthday... and I told her a Bible I saw... it is a Hebrew Greek Key Study Bible that opened up my eyes to more than I could imagine... for example... I do not believe that Lots wife turned into a statue of salt... I believe a huge salt pillar came crashing down and squashed her like a bug.
So you see I have a whole different vision now.
I am trying to make sense out of nonsense... and it is very hard to do when you been hearing nonsense for so long it tumbles around in your head like dice. Ya never know where your gonna land.
So in thinking about all the gods...
HA, there are so many...
I think the most popular god is ourselves... oh yeah... some people actually think of themselves as gods... its crazy to watch the real GOD knock them down... you know, GOD hands out the good and the bad depending on what you need to learn your lesson.
So its better to learn quickly.
We are not gods... we are mere humans... I think we can become icons or idols... but gods... never... gods are invincible... and humans bleed and die. We are not to see the world only as far as our own noses... and we make a huge mistake if we do... you know... limit our interest to our own selves and screw everyone else.... that is not what GOD wants for us.
Food is another god... some people make food the most important thing in their life... I did at one time, yup I did that... but we need to daily fight all the wrong in our lives and struggle hard to keep things right. Food rots... and to much of it is a bad thing. With GOD... to much GOD is a good thing!
Some people make music their god... oh yeah... they live and breath music... gotta have the radio going... or the music on the phone.... and you know, there is a lot of music that is very good... but we have the good and the bad there... we enjoy the music but it is not what we live for.
For some... Violence is their god... demons come in when we allow them to and they make us do horrible things... seeing the blood and smelling the blood is a ritual of satanic proportions.
To others, the human body is their god... they are obsessed with the trend of the day... and must have their body altered to fit some standard set by someone who thought it would be a good idea to convince people they are not good enough and must have the operation to make them look younger, thinner, stronger...
To others the games and technology are their gods... they cant live if they lose their phone... their world completely stops when their phone or lap top dies.
To others porn is their god... and no more words need be said on that one...
To others magic is their god... they love to trick people with lies and confusion... and they are so obsessed they get every detail right, down to the last tack!
To others, the sun is their god.. they love to baste in the sun all the hours of the day and they may live to regret it... a little bit of sun is good for you... but a lot can cause a lot of damage!
To others their job is their god... nothing is more important than work and making money... HA, money... another god of so many... Lord lets not forget the love of money... that is so awful... for we do not live for personal profit... but for the profit of all... we all matter. Let go of your job, go home and live for your family, because they will be there for you when your job is gone!
To others drugs are their god... oh we must put alcohol and cigarettes... all those things that are addicting... have you ever seen a crack head when they need a hit of crack? They are down on their knees with their arse in the air desperately searching the strands of carpet for a rock. But all of these things can be a god to lots of different people... if you let them... we know it is OK to drink as long as we can control it.
To others their home or car is their god... they worship it like there is nothing else better.
To others clothes and jewelry and shoes are their god...
You get what I mean???
All these things can be gods... and they are not the only gods out there... I am just naming a few to get my point across... they are all serving the flesh... we can pick and choose anything to be more important than GOD... the Father of Jesus... who taught us to LOVE ONE ANOTHER... do good to one another... help each other out, but it is best to pick GOD! Thank you Jesus!
About 15 years ago I was questioning the real Billy Jack about the need for separation of church and state... poor Tom... he didn't know what he was going to do with me... lol... but now I know the reason why we have separation of church and state...
We have church people and we have non church people and we all need to be orderly and organized and helpful one to another. So now today I do see the need for separation of church and state... I finally understand Billy! I get it! There are so many gods out there we must not let any of them come in and take over... not in our law and not in our heart.
We always must know that GOD is the god of LOVE... GOD is the god of THE LIVING... GOD sent Jesus to create a way to get filled with the spirit without anything more than your very own faith.
Its so easy a child could even figure it out!
The god of Jesus Christ... His god is GOD!
Praise GOD! Thank You Jesus! :)
