Have you ever talked to people and they think you are totally insane?   They think you have lost it because you are giving up a gift of a life to be free and do whatever you want to trade it for a boring life as a Christian?    Do they call you intolerant, a holy roller, boring, a person who is afraid of life, etc?    They want to know why they should trade their life of having a good time and being around the people they enjoy for a life that seems bland.  

I have been on their side and I can totally understand.   From a distance, a Christian seems to be preaching a life of holiness and they seemed really odd to me.   Everyone I met they seemed to be overweight, a pony tail in their hair, glasses, and somewhat nerdy clothes.   Or they are a cooky cutter Christian who has this country type of house with a floral couch, boring worship music and they all have that same Jennifer Aniston hair cut from the 1990's.   I always felt judged by them and never felt that with my personality, that God would like me for me and that I had to change to be like them and that just was not going to happen.  

The thing is that I was so lost, so confused and using people as an excuse not to deal with myself.   You see, that a lot of people have this idea that life is a gift and that Christ died and if you say a sinners prayer that you are saved....so you can go drink and have a good time and do whatever you want.   Most of the time God protects you because you are so deceived and wants you to come to the truth, and this protection in the period of grace is misconstrued that God is just this loving God who would not ever send people to hell.

Another reasoning mechanism that I have come across is there are so many people who believe in evolution.   They look at the ways that animals are and relate that to human behavior.   Their rationale is that if a certain species of ocean life are born as a hermaphrodite, or that it changes its sex to adapt, then humans could in fact mirror their behavior.   If a human is no more then an animal, then a human could in fact mate with an animal, or a human of the same sex, or change its sex to adapt to the harsh conditions of society.    If a human is no more then an animal, then abortion itself is not murder, because animals are killed everyday and consumed by humans.   You see, we have not got to the heart of the problem.  

The problem with people and our society is that they do not think that humans are a separate creation from animals that have a soul and a spirit that are eternal.  They do not believe that animals just have a soul.    They do not believe that there is an eternal judge who made us, who will judge us and will send us to an eternal home separate from the creation of animals.   They believe that one can adapt and evolve to change their reality when they do not like the current one and that reality can become what is real.    One cannot change the reality of the laws of the universe and of Heaven.   One can only change their circumstances when they do not like it but changing one's circumstances does not mean that those choices won't be judged.    The belief that one can change their reality is a form of satanism because the reality of Christ's blood and His resurrection, God's laws, Heaven and Hell, etc. never change....

How can Christians get people saved by just telling people abortion is murder, that homosexuality is wrong, gay marriage is wrong, and the list goes on.....when they do not believe that God created us, that humans are higher creatures than animals, that our lives are eternal and we do not just die and turn back to Earth from which we came?    Why would a person thinking that they only have 80 years to live and have a good time want to give up their lives to merge into what they seem to be a cult, or a bland part of society who has come up with their own rules of living?    No art, no music, no dancing, no spice of life, no fine foods, no pleasure, no travel, no fashion, no great architecture and design?   

This is how they think!   This is how I thought before I was saved.   I thought all of this was some kind of fairy tale, that Christians wanted some kind of escape from life because they were afraid to deal with hard issues of life, that they wanted to live in some kind of cave and not succeed.   I really did think that Christians were afraid of success in all areas of life.

But I would think back on my life and remember some thoughts that I had and knew that I did really in my heart want Jesus, I was just running because I thought I was too lost to come back to Him....or I thought I was saved and there was nothing wrong with me.....

• I used to sit as a little kid and touch my hand and my arm and thought my yourself, WOW I am real!   Sometimes I remember trying to look in the mirror and see if I could see the person inside my body....because I knew I had a spirit.
• When I was little I had always wondered why I never remembered where I was before I was born, but I always had this sense I had been near God in Heaven...like my soul was near Him and somehow He put me on Earth to find my way back.
• I used to think to myself things like, I never asked to be born....and that just because Adam and Eve sinned, why should I be punished?   And then I would think about that and realize that yes, it was not my fault I was born and what Adam and Eve did, but I was here...God wanted me here, I have no choice that I am here....so if I have no choice that I am here, I might as well deal with it and figure out how I was going to get back to God.....and that meant only through Jesus and His blood.
  
• I remember as a little kid hearing the sounds and smells of Christmas and a super most wonderful feeling I had come over me like a feeling of Heaven, of angels and I just knew that the Lord was real.....that Santa Claus must have been some kind of earthly manifestation of the love of God....and how Jesus loves the little children, that we must come to Heaven as little children.   I just always knew that my presents from my parents addressed as Santa Claus were really the love of the Father coming to me and that if Heaven were this wonderful I had to be there.  It must be like everyday is Christmas there.
  
• When I was little I always read the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen and I just knew that somehow the prince coming for the beautiful princess was Jesus.   I read Snow White, and Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty and the evil character was always defeated, the darkness always went away and they were to live happily ever after.   How did I know that meant forever?
  
• I remember as a very little girl going to a funeral and feeling a strange feeling, the finality of death, the judgment and severity of God.   Sometimes I would walk up to the casket to see the face to try to take this idea in.   Sometimes I would think of myself in a casket and wonder what it would be like for my spirit to be gone.   Would angels take me, would I go by myself, would I travel fast or slow to Heaven, would I have to wait in a line to see Jesus, would He be right there?  
  
• I remember thinking about Jesus and the devastating pain in my life of people leaving me....what if it was all real and Jesus slammed the door on me in eternity?   What if Earth was the only chance for mercy?    What if mocked God once too much, or slammed the door once too much on someone trying to share the gospel with me?   What if I went to one too many night clubs and got drunk one too many times and God said that was enough?  
  
• I remember there was once in my life where I was so devastated that I really wanted to die.   And the thought came over me, what if I died right then?   It became overwhelming to me at that point.
  
• I remember doing things that gave me highs of life that was incredible, but the next time I did it for some reason it was boring?   So I needed to try something else.   And then it just kept on a cycle of excitement, then boring, etc.   I thought to myself, that there has to be more to life than pleasure and vanity. 
  
• I also remember having everything in my life going so perfect and then all of a sudden everything comes crashing down.    I wondered for a while how did my luck change so fast, and who could be coordinating all these events to happen with such precision?  I was like some kind of whirlwind.
  

The perception of people out there is confused.   They need to know that God specifically thought about their personality, their likes and dislikes and every single thing about them.   He knows us better than we know ourselves.   He did not create us to be like an animal to live, then die....or to live and then evolve to a higher being in the universe with this current sinful state we are in to go a wage wars on other planets.   If this were true, we would destroy the entire universe as we are not creators of anything, but merely the only thing we could do is manipulate DNA over and over until we made furious creatures who would in fact eat others.   This would cause a destruction of the creation within the universe and we would be beings left with nothing as we could not create any universes, planets, or stars.   Even our technology cannot save this planet.   

My question to those people who want to live and do whatever you want.....what if you are not right?   What if you who have never died and come back to tell have no idea what will really happen to you when you die?   What if you who are living in your sin die and go to hell?   Then what is the point of being a prisoner on this planet who requires Oxygen for survival to be yet a prisoner for eternity in the center of THIS same planet in Hell?   What is the point of being a prisoner in this body that gets ill, that ages, that has to digest what it takes in, that struggles with pain and heartache to just die and have no hope that things will get better?    What is the point of going to an eternity in a higher state of being with the same system in place of buying and selling, of slavery, of wars and weapons, of love and hate, of torture and men in power with greed who will use society as human capital to extrapolate resources from other planets for their own gain?    What if you are wrong and the Christians are right?    Then to give up a small breath of life to trade it for an eternity of freedom is worth it.    To be free from sin in the next life with the person who created you, who is holy, just, caring, powerful, who creates things whenever He wants.   Wouldn't it be easier to give up a couple of years of your life to seek out the truth of what is waiting on the other side and follow Christ and be washed in His blood than live a life in your current state being addicted to food, alcohol, gambling, porn, sports, cheating, dating, smoking, working out?    To me, Christ is freedom in this life.   I don't worry about tomorrow, I am not a prison of sin and disease and addictions, and I will be free for eternity to possibly travel and be apart of God's eternal creations and His projects.   To me, people who are going to the New World Order are closed minded, they can only think about this planet, this solar system, this galaxy, this universe and exploiting resources until there is nothing left.   They want to enslave others for their own gain by making them work 16 hour days with a microchip in their right hand so they can use you as a robot and send you to whatever mining field on whatever planet until they decide you die....and then you end up in hell.   To me, that is no freedom to waste my life drinking and partying to be a slave to sin, to be a slave to the New World Order, to be a slave to torment in Hell forever.  

The deception is that God is boring....some think we all sit on clouds in Heaven and do nothing.   That we all look the same and wear the same clothes there and that hell is a party place.  Or that hell does not even exist.   There are so many ideas out there.   But let me tell you something that God created you as a special person.   He created you to worship Him in truth and that does not mean you like the same things as everyone else.   You may like worship music in the form of an Italian band playing, or Christian pop music, or a symphony, or Christian dance music.   But you need to let Christ come to you where you are at this moment and let Him love you for who you are.   Let Him in and let Him show you He is real, He made you, He will never leave your or forsake you, He is good, His laws never change, that He wants to be your friend.....and let Him slowly change you, not PEOPLE!    Don't sit in a church and let the pastor, reverend, priest, bishop, etc. tell you how to think because some of them have never met Christ.  

You need to meet Him, you need to KNOW HIM personally like a REAL LIVE PERSON.  Once you meet Him and know what He is like, I am telling you, that you will think Lady Gaga or Obama or whoever you hold in highest regard as a fabulous person.....that Christ Jesus will be 1 trillion times better.    Jesus is the biggest high you will EVER have.   And that is NO LIE.   How can a person change overnight and stop drinking, smoking, and drinking energy drinks in ONE DAY and never return to it.   No one has that much will power, no one.
