Observations and Lamentations

     Observations and Lamentations; I have been doing more stuff around my home, but still taking time to see what has been happening, around here and there, and what absurdities are piled on top of previous absurdities. Sometimes, you just have to take a break, and go and clear your head, by moving dirt, fixing something, spending money, or whatever it is. I’ve done a little of all of that, lately. And, it seems everywhere I turn, there are more problems. Those absurdities have become a list of abominations.

     I’ve always considered myself a Christian, just not the most loyal and faithful, and that has been a problem in my life. Sometimes we coast through life, full of assumptions, but with a lack of wisdom. That wisdom has been around me, all my life. I just took it for granted, and I realize, no, you can’t do that. So, now, every morning, while cooking breakfast, I pick up the Bible and read it, straight line, until either some bacon gets burned(good reason for that) or my eyes get worn from eye strain(product of the cataract surgery, I guess). The bacon gets burned when something I am reading from that book of wisdom, grace and instruction, smacks me up side my head. The other is because of my not having some good eye drops nearby. One of these days I’ll correct that. One of these days…

     Just looking at news events, as neutral as possible, and not from the clowns on the mainstream pack of liars and propaganda peddlers, the world appears to be falling apart. It’s to the point that it appears at the point of no return, all too often. When you see people trying to make transgender mainstream, persuade children into believing things they are not capable of, like taking hormonal drugs to make their delusions that they are of another sex, that’s a serious problem.

     When you see someone(a famous someone) in front of a Ted Talks crowd who suggests that through the use of “women’s reproductive health”, “vaccines” and control by “kings”, for lack of a better word, that the population of the Earth can and should be reduced by ten to fifteen percent, well,  that’s another problem. That one is as bad as the previously mentioned abomination, and the famous person says it with some faux appearance of sorrow and humility, that makes me think of him as a false prophet. Yeh, that being an observation from the video after reading into the Old Testament. Of course, I had very little difference from before I picked up the Bible, this time around, so at least I know I had a foundation that was shaped well. And the other serious problems I’ll let go until another article, because there are just too many for one.

     My question, what I consider to be a big problem, is, what can I do about things like this? I’m not another David with his slingshot, facing Goliath(or am I, or are you?) I’m getting to a question that I think is smacking the people who read the Bible, and not get the message of the Bible. How many times did the Lord punish the people of Israel, for straying from His Commandments? How many times did the Lord say to His people, for the lack of a better way to say it, “Do as I say, Deal with it, or Else!” The Lord blessed the Jews every time they followed His Commandments, and He punished them every time they strayed from His Commandments. I think we follow in the same course that the Jews did, and we receive the same thing. Punishment and Grace. Depends on whether or not we live according to those Commandments in stone.

     We have been demonized by the left, who faithfully believe not in that Bible, and have cast these ideas of evil and misery onto our children, by taking time and care to set those evil ideas in concrete, not stone, like those Commandments. In other words, man made, not through any Creator, that same who has been there, all along, and watched it happen, and punished us for letting it happen, when we were taught better. In other words, man has fallen from grace because we don’t follow what the Lord has taught us, when we have a problem. Are we not to seek grace from Him, by protecting ourselves from the evil that those throw at us, and our children, who are the most precious gift and who are to be protected by us? Is it good enough to pray, by itself? Don’t we pray for guidance and instruction, also? Do we let politicians and bureaucrats send us next the pit, and cling to the edge until we fall into it?

     Do we let those who have deluded themselves into thinking they are gods throw us into their fiery sacrificial pit? For his petty and foolish vanity? Not just the one I used above, because he is not the only one, and you should know of whom I speak.

     I already admit I am a sinner, but I also think I am a sinner because I am a part of those who only pray, but too often never act on those instructions I think are found in the Bible. Why does the Bible, and the Torah, contain Leviticus, which is about law and crime and punishment, not just at His hand, but from those hands of the people it was written by and to. Leviticus is a foundation of justice, isn’t it?
Even the Levites fell from grace. So did David. Solomon had to build the temple, remember?

     I am a gun owner, and I believe I have the right to defend myself, from those who wish to do harm to me, my family, and those around me who are innocent. I think that is a right that the Lord gave me, and instructed me to use, but not to murder. That’s a Commandment, and I will never do that, but there is a thought I have about my having the right to defend myself, my family and the innocent, and why I can’t protect against those who wish to force me, my family, and the society which I am part of, from the evil from others. Some will say that is not our role because we have a system of justice in our society. Really? Do we? I remember remnants of it, but I see it vanishing before my eyes.What is essential to understand, about this transgender crap is that it is a replacement for aborting babies. They are still delivering sacrifices to Baal, just in a different form, but the same, nonetheless.

     The only reason we had a justice system is because it was enshrined in the Bible, and handed down through those who revered the Bible, just long enough to say things, like “Here’s your republic, if you can keep it”, but fell short of saying “Keep it and always strive for that salvation and everlasting life.” Somehow, I think the Founders knew that wouldn’t go over well with all who keep falling.

I pray, but is that enough? Not even close!

I was raised in the Episcopal Church, baptized and confirmed, and still remember the prayers and the liturgy surrounding that religion, but I am usually talking to God by asking Him questions, instead of putting it through a lens of my church. And sometimes I get answers. I’m openly asking this one. I hope I’m not alone.
