Some
Fundamental Questions we must ask now before it is too late
How can
we know that we are IN God's Will, and that we are Doing God's Will?
Are
we doing God's Will in Iraq; are the terrorists doing God's Will; is
either side doing God's will in Iraq?
Scroll down to read New Testament Holy Scriptures.
Should we ask if being in all of these other countries comports with
God's Will?
First, look at the beam in thine own eye; are we provoking hatred by
our own actions?
St.
Matthew, 7. 1 through 5
How
can we make life better for over 6 billion human beings?
How
can we find the true pathway to world peace and mutual
prosperity?
How
can we convert the world to using renewable energy
resources?
All so-called sides must ask themselves these
questions.
We
will begin by addressing
the first question:
The
first question is
the paramount question, "are we IN
God's will and are we DOING God's will in all dimensions of our
practices and policies." Praying for God to be with you and/or with
your countries policies is irrelevant because God commands individuals
and countries and their policies & practices to follow His
commandments, you cannot command or ask God to be with your ideas,
policies and practices, you and/or your country can only be in-line
with God's Will, Words, and Commandments!
We
all hear the phrase God is with us, and God is on our
side. Those Claims are false Claims; we can only be on
God's side
and in His
will, doing His commandments; there is no such thing as God choosing
sides or being on one-side verses the other side. It is a "Cardinal Sin
of
Omission" if we as individuals and countries do not accept, be in, and
follow
the righteous commandments and principles laid out for
us in New Testament Scriptures.
Whoever
accepts God's Word, and follows and applies His
commandments will reap the fantastic fruits thereof. We cannot command
God to
accept our
will, our ways and our means; no person or country can command God to
do anything or to be on their side. Therefore, the
question must always be, are we with God
and in His will.
Post-World
War II, we have spent trillions of dollars in
military expenditures, all of which was a needless waste of millions of
precious human lives. The domino theory concerning Communism was not
valid, that
was false propaganda. We did not have to fight the Korean War, nor the
Vietnam War.
Our nation should use military force only when we are under a direct
threat of aggression,
and never by utilizing false assumptions.
Attempting
to control the world by the use of military force
is a zero-sum game, and everyone involved will be losers. The pathway
to mutual world
peace and prosperity exists solely within the New Testament Scriptures.
All
foreign policies, all business and industry policies and
practices need to reside within those New Testament principles. Those
universal
principled truths have the sole power to transform the world from war
and terrorism
to world peace and mutual prosperity.
We
are to overcome evil with good. We are commanded to love
our enemies and to do good to those who hate us. We are commanded to be
righteous,
truthful, just, fair, and equitable in all of our dealings in all of
our
relationships. Never say, God be with you. always say "Be With God,
"this universal principle only works one way, never both ways!
New Testament - Sermon on the Mount
St. Matthew, Chapter 5. 3 through 12;
3 Blessed
are the poor in spirit: for their’s is
the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed
are they that Mourn, for they shall be
comforted.
5 Blessed
are the meek: for they shall inherit
the earth.
6 Blessed
are they which do hunger and thirst
after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed
are the merciful: for they shall
obtain mercy.
8 Blessed
are the pure in heart: for they shall
see God.
9 Blessed
are the peacemakers: for they shall be
called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for
righteousness
sake: for their’s is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and
persecute
you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad: for great is
your
reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before
you.
St.
Matthew, Chapter
5. 43 through 48.
43 Ye have heard that it has been said, Thou shall
love thy
neighbor, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto
you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that
hate
you, and pray for them, which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which
is in
heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and
sends
rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if you love
them which love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the
same?
47 And if you salute
your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the
publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father
which is in
heaven is perfect.
St. Matthew, 22. 35 through 40:
35. Then one of them,
which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36, Master, which is the great commandment in the
law?
37 Jesus said unto
him, Thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with
all thy
soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first
and great commandment.
39 And the second is
like unto it,
Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and
the prophets.
We
are not commanded to control the world using deadly and
destructive military force which multiplies hatred exponentially;
rather
we are
commanded to win the world by utilizing the power of God's Word in New
Testament Scriptures. It is only then that our over 6 billion neighbor
human
beings on
planet Earth will be rewarded with worldwide peace and mutual
prosperity. In this global village we are all neighbors.
"God's Path
represents the only workable path to world peace and mutual prosperity
for
all of
humankind."
I wrote the above with my Dragon voice software.
=============================
The Wisdom of Solomon (An Apocrypha)
The
Nature of Wisdom
There is in her a
spirit that is intelligent, holy,
unique, manifold, subtle,
mobile, clear, unpolluted,
distinct, invulnerable, loving the good,
keen,
irresistible,
23beneficent, humane,
steadfast, sure, free from anxiety,
all-powerful, overseeing all,
and penetrating through all spirits
that are intelligent, pure, and
altogether subtle.
24 For wisdom is more
mobile than any motion;
because of her pureness she pervades and
penetrates all things.
25 For she is a breath of
the power of God,
and a pure emanation of the glory of the
Almighty;
therefore nothing defiled gains entrance
into her.
26 For she is a reflection
of eternal light,
a spotless mirror of the working of God,
and an image of his goodness.
27 Although she is but
one, she can do all things,
and while remaining in herself, she
renews all things;
in every generation she passes into holy
souls
and makes them friends of God, and
prophets;
28 for God loves nothing
so much as the person who lives with wisdom.
29 She is more beautiful
than the sun,
and excels every constellation of the
stars.
Compared with the light she is found to
be superior,
30 for it is succeeded by
the night,
but against wisdom evil does not prevail.
The
Wisdom of Solomon - An Apocrypha
(An Apocrypha)
=======================================
WISDOM rightly directs the applications of knowledge and intellect.
The greatest need in our world today is WISDOM.
