"I seek to persuade
men"
The apostle Paul said knowing the fear of The Lord we seek to
persuade men. The bible says fear of The Lord is the beginning
of wisdom but scoffers despise instruction!
I awake today the day Noah entered the ark to see a news story
that stealth bombers are dropping leaflets on NK saying prepare
for sn attack? Poking a stick in a hornets nest? A counter story
says the NK is making threats while they plan drills? Playing
chicken or whack a mole?
And the world goes on because it thinks all things will just go
on they can go to largemart and burger place and get their four
dollar gas and go.
But the fact is one day in one hour that ark door will shut
grace and the free offer of mercy that is out there goes away.
But The Lord looked upon them who feared them and thought of His
words to remember to do them and thought upon His name. And He
said I will spare them in the day and pluck them they shall be
My Gems and He wrote a books of rememberance of those that did
this!
Unto them will the sun of rightousness arise and you shall go
out as calfs into the pasture.
The wicked will be as chaff in the wind the bible says!
I awake to the news no one else seems to read too depressing and
think of how we had a sunny Saturday finally and for a few
moments I got to feel like a calf and be joyful.
But I wake to the verse the fear of The Lord is the beginning of
wisdom. I fear that the world us saying good is evil and
evil is good. I fear The Lord is coming to judge. I truly think
that was the beginning of my wisdom.
But I see among those not watching for the rapture not praying
they go a lack of fear even a scoffing of those watching and
those warning and those praying for mercy. I need the Lords
mercy every second to breathe!
The churches don't instruct in the rapture as a blessed hope. It
would point to judgement of the world and people being held
accountable for every word they say.
The bible says the wicked do evil saying no one will see no good
or bad will God do. Mark twain said do no wrong thing when
someone is looking.
The point is God is always looking. He is writing a book to
remember those fearing Him unto wisdom to ponder His words to to
them and talk among themselves to encourage each other as they
watch Him coming.
He is letting the world who chooses to not retain the truth of
Him or seek His ways go along their merry way as judgement and
tribulation come like a net ever closer!
The bible says Lord I trust in You let me not be ashamed let
them be ashamed who transgress without cause. My eyes are ever
upon You for You will pluck my feet out if the net,
If reading the news does not have you looking up and working out
your salvation in fear and trembling then I suggest you start
reading the news and calling on The Lord while He may be found
and read His word in a KJV bible first then if you like compare.
Fearing The Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The wisdom of this
world will come to nothing those that do the will of The Lord
abide forever!
That's foolish to the world fearing The Lord is foolish to most
of today's Christians to me its the beginning of Wisdom that
causes me to call upon Him to trust in His Son Jesus name to
come here and ponder His word with others encouraging as we see
the day approach its the beginning of wisdom.
What of those that say perfect love casts our fear? It's amazing
how most know three or four bible verses and can use them to
shoot down we need to watch for the rapture we can know the
season if we are in the light and we need to pick up our cross
and follow Jesus and to fear The Lord.
When you answer with a verse that refutes their argument they
end the conversation?
Well the fear of the world is unto death the fear of The Lord
leads to repentance not to be repented of which leads to
justification sanctification redemption and holiness which
allows us to walk in perfect love not again receiving a spirit
of fear but of adoption saying Abba Father!
Perfect Love loving The Lord with all our heart and others as
self! On this hangs all the law and prophets. Salvation is a
race to be run to the finish we have to start the race to be in
it and run it to finish.
Fear is the beginning of wisdom it is the starting gun that
leads us to seek The Lord and mercy and grace and we work out
our salvation in fear and trembling and run the race Jesus ran
to go home!
