The Tyranny of the minority.
This is just the opposite of a majority democracy.
"'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.'
"This is the great and foremost commandment.
"The second is like it, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' ...
{Did you notice "you" not the government or anyone else!}
** Yet today many want to play political games with giving and support or help.. They have lost the personal touch and purpose of sharing!
---------------------------------------
We now have the courts who should always be aware that the majority have rights, yet also consider the no less important rights of a minority. If rulings cannot be made that accommodate both sides in such cases, but rather always favor the minority view; then that country will be in grave danger of fragmenting into small groups trying to gain power through the court system rather then through the ballot box. Which is what has happened in many of the countries formed in the past hundred years!
* One just has to look at the Supreme Court decision; of the Presidential election of 2000, where will it lead the country? Or the court decision on public school bussing? Or Some of the so called minority decisions for special privileges or allowances... Not in the best direction!
First is the fact that you can not please everyone all the time! Then there is the principle that not all things, wants, or wishes can be done by everyone!
This is not a good trend for a democratic represented - republic based government.
Then the ACLU and the Citizens United for the Separation of Church and State are on a quest to remove any mention of God from our public society.
Why Exactly?
It is because they do not believe in anyone or anything higher or over them... They are a group of self-centered and greedy controllers! Which leaves no one else any room or reason to exist - unless you comply with all their rules and regulations...
* Sounds like a certain major religion - HUH?
{Did you notice there is no freedom except what they alone allow?}
-------------------------------------------
After the 9-11 terrorist attack in New York City, many people around the country started posting signs which read, "God Bless America." Because they felt a need for God in their otherwise barren lives...
It was an almost an universal appeal to reunite with the Holy God of the Universe! Regardless of their background!
****
Recently - The ACLU has taken a school in California, to court for posting such a sign.
{ Such is the shame and down fall there of the United States...}
** My question is " exactly what or why does anyone seeing, hearing or reciting - "God Bless America." make any real eternal personal difference to people who do not believe it??
---------------------------------------
It is kind of like saying you believe in Santa - while he does not exist and I know that there is no Santa; but it does not really bother me...
What does it cause people to act in such a way?
*** Would it:
curtail their livelihood?
or cause them pain?
or bring embarrassment?
or do damage to their person?
or any other nondescript causes?
NO! saying "God Bless America" does not create any real damage! No; Because uttering a pray - type phrase will not destroy you! Never has never will...
If anything it could and should help you bring closure in your soul!
==================================================
"God Bless America." is about what is right and true in the life of America!
Yet many attack this simple direct statement =
"God Bless America." With a vengeance as if it would destroy not only the nation but the whole people!
Which is a total lie and falsehood!
Yet there are some who would lead you to believe so..
***
Then: We do not need to protect or give reason for Almighty God the Creator of the Universe...
God does not need or use our {limited} protection!
It is we - who require His Blessing and Guidance!!
---------------------------------
Many of the world's {many anti-Christian} people live under the Darkness of Evil which controls much of their leadership. Since only truth can and will prevail in the face of such a destructive force. This is where the concerned and truth seeking people of the world need to teach the Word to The Lord Jesus - the Savior of the world and the source of all Truth!
Now we realize that many people, do not know God and therefore seem to drift toward an Anti-God relationship! It is where so many find themselves today under the bondage and power of Satan and his evil system...
** There are (2) two Spiritual systems in existence in the universe at the present time:
** The first is the Original God inspired system based upon Grace and Truth!
1) Freedom - God; who set this into existence before the Earth was created; gave each of us this option built into our Heart and Soul... Are you aware of this power of choice in your life?
** This is an offer that you should not refuse unless you do not love The Lord God and Your neighbors...
i.e. Because you are so self centered - that you do not love anyone but yourself!
================================
Then there is a counterfeit system - from Satan!
2) Slavery - Satan; who dominates and only wants to control and enslave everyone to his personal glory!
** The only real will of Evil is to limit and confuse everyone into his kingdom...
i.e. This is the false - counterfeit system - built to attempt to replace God, through deceit and domination!
--------------------------------------------------
Actually each of us have been hard wired to seek the Lord God in our life!
This the main God given design of mankind; which separates humans from the rest of the animal kingdom!
Humans are Spirit, Soul and Body...
(body) is obvious {what you see of any person}; the physical, part, which sees, hears, tastes, smell, and feels...
(soul) central control with mind & emotional elements; noun \ˈsōl\ : the spiritual part of a person that is believed to give life or control to the body and in many religions is believed to live forever; a person's deeply felt moral and emotional nature; the ability of a person to feel kindness and sympathy for others, to appreciate beauty and art, etc.
(spirit) The power of God given unto every created being allowing them to live independently... The God given Spirit gives the life force to all that live...
Together this is you as a person - In real life it is a person's state of being or existence!
While humans can think - act and perform independently - they are unable to add even one second to their existence or progress beyond their present state in the space - time continuum {under their own power} ...
This is where Faith enters you life - Faith in the Lord God - who first loved you!
While many have and will attempt to get you to divorce yourself from the Eternal connection through Faith in the Lord God alone! You must lean to resist and not throw away your eternal inheritance in the Kingdom of God!
===================================================
** Of all the various forms of human government none are best a temporary vain attempt to mimic the will and way of the Lord God in Earthly life!
Even a so called Democracy or Representative Republic will never represent the true principles of Almighty God in the affairs of mankind!
{Which is mainly the ability, or desire to live in peace - harmony and love.}
Because of the temptation of sin based upon Greed and Self centeredness {which puts any human person before or above in a person's mind (soul) God and other fellow humans}...
If we could ever come to seek God through personal Faith in the hope of a Blessed eternity then you would know - where you will spend Eternity!
Matthew 22:38
The Greatest Commandment
…37 And He said to him, "'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.'
38 "This is the great and foremost commandment.
39 "The second is like it, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'…
---------------------------------------------------
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
22:34-40 An interpreter of the law asked our Lord a question, to try, not so much his knowledge, as his judgment.
The love of God is the first and great commandment, and the sum of all the commands of the first table. Our love of God must be sincere, not in word and tongue only.
All our love is too little to bestow upon him, therefore all the powers of the soul must be engaged for him, and carried out toward him.
To love our neighbor as ourselves, is the second great commandment. There is a self-love which is corrupt, and the root of the greatest sins, and it must be put off and mortified; but there is a self-love which is the rule of the greatest duty: we must have a due concern for the welfare of our own souls and bodies. And we must love our neighbor as truly and sincerely as we love ourselves; in many cases we must deny ourselves for the good of others.
By these two commandments let our hearts be formed as by a mold.
***
"the root of "all the commandments" is, when a man loves God with all his soul, and cleaves unto him.
The whole idea is to get your eyes off your self and most all the stuff in the sighted world!
Because the vast unseen Spirit Existence is beyond comprehension or total understanding by humans!
It is through Total Faith in the Lord Jesus and the Kingdom of God alone that will get you into the Blessed Eternal Home where you were created to exist for Eternity!
Amen!
