777 –Part 4!

Ok I couldn’t resist!!! I actually went back to the page and was stunned into seeing more!!!

“TRUST ME ANGELS WILL SING”

“The Chosen will come forrth from the Christian tribes for this cause. 777 For they have seals set in thier minds and souls to recognize This message.”

This person is a lunatic! He is caught up in his own religious robes of righteousness that he is tripping over himself!

Here is a picture of the man from his website. If you were to pray for anything, pray the scales would fall off his eyes, his ears and heart would be opened to the real gospel and that Jesus would become an authentic entity in his life as opposed to a fantastical creature to serve his own agenda.

777- Part 3

Why didn’t Satan show up last year at 666 or June 6, 2006?? Better yet June 6, 1006 or the year 6 when Jesus was 6 years old? Ok, so maybe he didn’t show up when Jesus was six because Jesus had to fulfill his mission and couldn’t die before he was 33 or something like that.

However, if one believes in this fanciful notion of playing the numbers game then last year would have been the most opportune time for Satan to have wreaked havoc on the world. NO?

I continue to peruse this website http://www.prayon777.com. I am not leery about what I might read. I am aghast!

“There will come three annointed Messiahs or Prophets in our day. Just like John the Baptist, Jesus the Christ, and Paul. These three are the greatest spirits that have ever lived because they all died for us. We will be great on thier acount. Be mighty in God our Father.”

“777 IS A WAVE SENT FROM HEAVEN --RIDE THE WAVE!”

It is clear that whomever did this writing is either un-schooled or does not know how to use a spell/grammar-check. They are coming off as possibly a new ‘believer’ in that they have their theology, time frames and references all jumbled.

I would venture to guess they are of the Charismatic persuasion or Word Faith Movement.
As much as I respect all that John and Paul were about, I would never dare to put them in the same league as Jesus Christ or intonate that they ALL died for me. Golly gee, except for Enoch and Elijah everybody died. What I thought was the basics of Christianity are that Jesus died to shed his blood for the remission of our sins. Paul and John just died; plain ol’ period.

At this point, I am going to discontinue making comments about this particular website. It is obvious that they are swirling in their own fanciful and spiritual delusions of what they want to happen or think they will make God do. I will however continue to do other research on Google based on this ‘777 phenomenon’ that is about to occur.

Stay tuned…

777- Part 2

“John the Baptist prepared the the people the first time and now this organization called, "the manchild team believe they are to stir up all Christianity so that the focus is on Jesus Christ's return. They say when this passion to be with the son is displayed to the Father he is very pleased and will show miraculous signs and answers to prayers.”

Ok, first thought is does this ‘manchild’ eat locust and honey? Just a silly thought! I didn’t claim to have all my sanity intact. Just a little humor to lighten this parody.

Where in the bible does it remotely say, ‘when this passion to be with the son is displayed to the Father he is very pleased and will show miraculous signs and answers to prayers’?

Shouldn’t our passion towards the son be everyday? Is that not what a relationship with Jesus is supposed to be all about? Is God the Father limited to showing miraculous signs and answering prayers if let us say, my passion for his son is waning today? If my passion is stronger tomorrow, will that empower the Father to work more miracles?

IS GOD RELIANT ON HUMANS TO BE… GOD?

Does this not put God at the mercy of the mere humans vs. us being at the mercy of an all-powerful God?

Who are we to limit God’s potential in this world based on our faith or lack of for the day?

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. ~Matthew 13:32-33

If neither Christ nor the angels know when that day of his return is then how are we to ‘Trinity Lotto’ style, pick a day, oh hey, July 7, 2007 sounds spiritual, and expect to usher in ‘a rapture or second coming’?????

Stay tuned for more…..

777- Part 1

This is the beginning of a few blogs about this supposed spectacular event that will occur on ‘777’ or July, 7 2007. If you go to http://www.prayon777.com/ you can get more details. The premise is that on that day being that 666 is the devils number with all things bad included then 777 must be God’s number and all things good.

As I enter this page, I am stunned by so much that I don’t know where to begin. Since I am not a very smart and organized person that has the ability to take each paragraph and address it logically I will pluck the ones that seem to grab my attention first.

“Christians:- pray on saturday July 7 2007 with millions for the world's greatest prayer day.

Pray to be raptured, healed or for whatever is in your heart(the spirit will be eternally strong that day because of faith). Prayer works and this day will bless our world as millions speak in humble mighty prayer for what they desire in their hearts.”

My first thought that comes to mind is that if we are all praying for different things then we are not praying in one accord and are not in agreement. However, I guess according to Matthew 18:19 we only need two of us to agree on something.

My second thought is why would the spirit (little ‘s’) be eternally strong that particular day? If they are speaking of the third in the trinity, meaning the Holy Spirit then is the Spirit reliant upon a human’s faith to empower it? Mark 14:38 says the Spirit is truly ready but the flesh is weak. Romans 8:28 says the Spirit helps OUR infirmities. Does the Holy Spirit need our help? Is there a dependence upon mere humans in order for the Spirit to move upon this earth?

This is the BIG question. Similar to my Trinity Lotto blog, if some are praying for healing, some are praying for revival while others are praying for the rapture… then who’s prayer does God answer? Does he heal some, set a revival going in a few places then rapture only those that asked for it??

Obviously, my questions could go on and on. Call me a stupid person for not knowing the answers or call me extremely inquisitive, whichever.

The scripture that has continually come to mind in the past months of my inquisition to my beliefs is this: 1 Corinthian 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty.

Stay tuned for Part 2!

Bush Spout-Off!

"Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
~ President Bush, quoting from Romans 12 during the memorial convocation at Virginia Tech

If this is a true thought for Bush then why has the US been in Iraq for 4 years?

CNN reports that there have been 3,315 Americans killed. According to the Pentagon 24,764 U.S. troops have been wounded in action.

BBC news says an estimated 655,000 Iraqis have died since 2003 who might still be alive but for the US-led invasion.

Have all these people been killed by overcoming evil with good?

Is that what Bush thinks is overcoming evil with good? Golly gee, if we do any more good to the Iraqis they will be extinct.

Don’t get me wrong. I am not into all the politics behind this war remembering that I was very ill when this all started and I have limited memory capabilities. I remember that both my son and son-in-law went there at the same time to serve this country. And by God’s grace they came home. I know that government PR says that we are trying to avert more crisis by our presence in Iraq. I don’t really know all the details or the truth.

For the sake of this blog I just want to understand what Bush’s idea of overcoming evil with good means. Are we now going to invade South Korea because it was one of their people that claimed the title of ‘for the deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history’?

This is not a blog about the true meaning of evil and good. This is about a man that runs our country, claims Christianity, is a 33rd degree Mason and spouts good rhetoric for applause but his actions do not correspond with his mouth.

NOTE: Forgive my ignorance of the American government, its systems, statutes and reasoning’s. This is just my uneducated opinion of how I see it.

Free Music!

Everyone loves free! Here is a link for free Christian music. http://www.hearitfirst.com/membershiprocks/. If you sign up for their weekly newsletter that you will receive via email there will be one or two free downloads attached each week. It is cool. The best part for me is that I am discovering artists that I might not have gone looking for but after I hear a song of theirs and I like it then I will go research more music from that artist.

Check it out. Some of the music isn’t my cup of tea but I download it and listen then if I don’t like it I just delete it and move on.

Burger King Christianity

I created this piece of art last year. I was just in a mood where the ‘King’s Kids’ and ‘Bless Me Club’ mentality of the mighty Christians was getting on my last nerve. Where was the humility, the giving and the true heart of Christ? When did Paul say he was exalted on the throne while he was here on this earth?

I had a pastor friend look at the picture and just smile. She finally let it be told that I should not really promote that picture along with the rest of my art because it was too sarcastic. I let that sink in for a bit. Sarcastic?

Satirical, maybe. Truthful, definitely. However, not sarcastic. I wasn’t mocking anyone. I was using ‘wit to attack the vices and follies of humankind’.

I know that some of us high and mighty Christians want to think we are above the rest of humanity in our ability to have vices and follies but we are the same. That is why the picture was created. The attitude that Christians are above the world’s mentality- that we are above others in our thinking and actions is preposterous! We are as vile and wicked. We just have found the Mediator to plead our cause. We have the blood on our side. It is not meant to justify our sins but hopefully it is potent enough that if we search for the truths it has for our lives then we can apply it liberally when we fall humbly before the throne of the one that shed it for us.

Oh living God, have mercy on me the wretched sinner that I am. Never let me become so full of ‘my’ Christianity that I lose track of the humility you are trying to produce in me. Create in me a pure heart to see others as you see them. Not full of pride of life or religious functions. Give me a heart after yours alone. Let my life become a blessing to you Lord.
