It's Enough

Will my mouth declare your praise, when the salt starts to lose it's taste..

Will my heart be contrite, when I'm standing in Your light..

If pride didn't come before a fall, would I even seek you at all?

 

How can I forget, it's not about how I walk

but what you've done to cause me to

How can I think it's by these hands that I've been given rest

when all I do is fall on my knees in forgiveness.

 

I'm sorry it took this long to see, how far I am from who you want me to be

In the distance are the mistakes I've made, in Your forgiveness I'm saved

pardoned and redeemed by a grace that's finished and complete.

 

How can I forget, it's not about how I walk

but what you've done to cause me to

How can I think it's by these hands that I've been given rest

when all I do is fall on my knees in forgiveness.

 

I wake from a sleep of being broken, blessed to be forgiven

In silent confession I find, that I was walking blind

May I hold to what you love, and know it's enough...

 

1 Peter 2:16

“ As free, yet not using liberty as a cloak for vice,but as bondservants of G-D. “

 1  Peter 2:16

Thy freedom servant of The Most High, comes paid in full. The fine of perpetual wrath has been lifted and now thy soul is free. Oh but what a mistake, what a deception it is to use thy freedom as an excuse to sin! Your liberty comes on the blood of His Holy Son! Thy chains that clamor and bound you to a prison that you most assuredly deserve have thus been broken. You, being freed from such darkness, such long suffering of thy flesh, now must learn to walk! what fool, what vile snake...after being freed would choose to continue to sit chained in filth, only to mock the one who set free!

To claim freedom and yet be bound by your own delusions, to use your freedom you never could earn as an excuse to live exactly as you were, isn’t freedom at all! For you are still enslaved by your wicked vice, you just now think it’s by your choice...

Love & Repentance Part-1

Love  &  Repentance

He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and FORSAKES [them] will have mercy.

Proverbs 28:13

I don't care who you are, everyone is in need, and everyone wants change in some form or another. I tell you though, don't ever, don't you ever... say; 

“I’d come to messiah but I have to change my life first. I have to deal with this sin, or this issue, or this problem.. before I come to Him.”

A lot of preachers or christians would then go into a dialog about “Repentance” to someone who would say that, and I would be for that.. if they(meaning the preachers) understood what repentance was. Your life does need to be cleaned up, and you do have to deal with your issues, but the fact of the matter is.. if you wait until your issues are cleaned up then you will be waiting your whole life! You will never come to messiah because you will never be able to change! Only messiah can change you..

Messiah is the one who gives you new eyes to see, and a new heart that seeks after Him, He is the one who makes you holy and able to flee from sin! If you could do that by your own power then you don't need HIM! 

If you honestly want Messiah then get on your knees and repent, but be fore warned! Repentance isn't just being sorrowful. Repentance also brings change, seeking Messiah and accepting His mercy whole heartedly isn't a one time event, and it will produce a change in you that will not be by your own hands. His mercy should open the flood gates, His love and forgiveness, His sacrifice should overwhelm our very being and produce His likeness in us! If it does not, then you do not have Him! no matter how much you claim to accept Him

Many claim to have "accepted him" but no real change of heart has come! Preach repentance and it falls on deaf ears! Because its a word that doesn't hit home in this generation of lawlessness! "Repent you shout!" But this generation says "we have!" Foolishness! A bunch of whitewashed tombs, like in Jeremiah’s time! people have turned their backs on G-D but not their faces! Nor their hands asking for blessing when they deserve wrath!

“Roam the streets of Yerushalayim(Jerusalem) look around, observe and ask in it’s open spaces: If you can find anyone (If there is anyone!) who acts with justice and seeks the truth, I will pardon her. And though they say, ‘As Adonai lives,’ the fact is that they are swearing falsely.”

Yirmeyahu(Jeremiah) 5:1-2

Following Messiah is more than “I’m sorry”...if you claim to love and “accept” Him, then why do you hold onto what He abhors? Why do you look on what He says is good and perfect, and Holy as something disgusting and burdensome? You claim that He died so you can have freedom to SIN, you have totally missed the part of repentance in turning away from what G-D abhors. There’s no turning from the flesh and looking unto Messiah, and thus there is no renewal of heart and mind! You stay in your chains of sin while claiming you’re free...HERESY! 

They refused correction. They made their faces harder than rock, refusing to REPENT.

Yirmeyahu(Jeremiah) 5:3-4

“Why should I forgive you? Your people have abandoned me and sworn by non-gods.

When I fed them to the full, they committed adultery, thronging to the brothels.

They have become like well-fed horses,

lusty stallions, each one neighing after his neighbor’s wife. Should I not punish for this?” asks ADONAI

Yirmeyahu(Jeremiah) 5:7-9

If you don’t understand true repentance, then you surely can’t understand Holiness, nor the fact that G-D is righteous, you wont understand His righteous judgements. G-D to you, will just be someone who is required to forgive you, and your part is to continue living as you wish. You will have absolutely no FEAR of G-D because why should you? your god doesn’t punish, and your god isn’t holy which thus makes your god NOT the G-D of Abraham,Isaac, and Jacob.

“Hear this, stupid, brainless people, who have eyes but do not see, who have ears but do not hear: Don’t you fear me?”-says ADONAI.

Won’t you tremble at my presence?

Yirmeyahu(Jeremiah) 5:21-22

False sheep claim they have repented, they say they are sorry, but are they? Are they really? you ask them do they know the cost of their transgressions, and they say; “Surely we do! It cost Messiahs life!” Then again I ask, why do they continue to live as if they are crucifying Messiah all over again!? They don't live by His mitzvah(His commandments) they say they love Him, but only love Him when he blesses them! They say they are sorry, but are only sorry because they got caught! They don’t wish to turn from evil at all, and they openly hang on to their idols and wickedness while claiming to be a child of G-D 

(that’s called mocking kiddies and G-D doesn’t take kindly to it.) don’t tell me Ezekiel 8 doesn’t peg a lot of Christianity today that hangs onto paganism in one way or another.

“Human being, did you see what the leaders of the house of Israel are doing in the dark, each one in the room of his own carved image, because they say, ‘ADONAI can’t see us; ADONAI has left the land.’ ?” He also said to me, “You will see even worse abominations that they are doing.” He brought me to the entrance of the north gate to ADONAI’s house; and there before me were women weeping for *Tammuz*.

Yechezk’el(Ezekiel)8:12-14

*(“Tammuz” by the way means “Sprout of Life” and was a sumerian deity of food and vegetation, and so hence in Ezekiel we see that Hebrew women were following the ritualistic mourning to “Tammuz”. Whoring after other gods..)

Christianity today is essentially whoring after other gods, because they seek to make the G-D of the bible into their own image, they take G-D and His commandments and take the parts they like while ignoring the parts they don’t. Either G-D is everything the bible says He is...or He is not...you don’t get to pick and choose what works for “you”.

Here’s a question for you, since when have such important words like Repentance and LOVE lost complete meaning? 

You may be asking yourself, what does Love have to do with Repentance? My reply would be; “it has everything to do with it.” I’ve tried explaining true repentance, and I’ve tried explaining love before...but it seems like a good time to do it again.

Not understanding love is why there is so much divorce in this world today! And among christians who are suppose to know what love is! They get into relationships that they think were built upon love, but in reality it was built upon the flesh, and so they think all love is about is take, take, and take, and when trouble or disagreements come in the marriage (and they will!) They are quick to say things like "oh well...we fell out of love". Or "I'm not feeling this anymore" and they get a divorce and walk around telling people "I just fell out of love, just don't love him or her anymore"

How the hell do you "fall out of love"..??? I’m completely serious, it seems love has been brought so low that it’s now just some whimsical feeling that you can fall in and out of. True love isn't a light switch you can turn on and off, once its on, its on, and there's no falling out of it! I'm glad G-D doesn't fall out of love for us, and actually knows the meaning of it! He is the author of Love after all.

How quickly the world wishes to tell you about love, how quickly the world interjects it’s opinions. Yet, the world and the flesh are both equal in the fact that they are ignorant of it. Love is more than yearning, it’s far more than a primal urge. Love is simply put willful surrender, willful change, Yeshua(Jesus) was the perfect example of Love(and obedience). Yeshua wasn’t about simplistic  fleshly carnal desire, blind by some happy sappy love. Yeshua was all about the Father, only cared to do His will, and willfully surrendered Himself to DEATH, that is real LOVE.(John 15:13)

Real Love doesn’t think about what has to be changed, doesn’t think about personal gain, it doesn’t think about surrendering...NO...Real Love just does! it’s not about what is being given up, the thought doesn’t really enter the mind, it’s like everything is considered a loss without the person and a total waste, and we willfully give everything up for the person. When truly in love we want the very best for the person, even if that means we get nothing in return, and even if that means letting the person go.

Again it’s willful surrender for the betterment of them, that’s LOVE!

So why do we not love G-D like this? I’m convinced we don’t know true love, we have listened to the biggest talkers giving us wrong advice on what love is, we listen to the flesh and the world, and they say love is all about take, there’s no give, only take....So we view G-D and love for Him exactly the same way...

Hence...Love & Repentance go hand and hand, it’s a beautiful marriage.

Part 2... coming soon

You “choosing G-D” isn't the miracle to glory in, the miracle is G-D unveiled your eyes too choose Him, even though you were wicked from the start. 

Vote for the lesser of Evils?

**WARNING***

What you are about to read will offend,

and will upset your "apple cart".

I will get political while remaining biblical (imagine that)

I will call out falsehood

I will not allow "emotionalism" or "fear" to sway me. 

May the Holy spirit convict, and speak through this blog

and that goes for myself too.

***WARNING***

Yes, you will leave him too, 

with your hands on yours heads(in shame).

For Adonai rejects those in whom you trust;

from them you will gain nothing.

Jeremiah 2:37

Good Ol' Jeremiah, my favorite book of the bible. 

The time of Jeremiah and backsliding Israel,

reminds me of western christianity, specifically speaking

it reminds me of America, who considers itself a christian nation but is far from it. a verse that always is in the back of my mind is "They turned their backs to me but not their faces" that's Jeremiah, Jeremiah 2:27 and I think it's found elsewhere in Jeremiah too.

Tell me, have we as a country and culture stood by God and His principles? His commands? are we even seeking to? We've completely snubbed our noses at God, turned our backs to what He commands us to be, and at the same time have our hands out asking for His "blessing". It's abhorrible, we want God on our side but in no way shape or form want to live for Him.

I'm talking about "Christians", those who claim to follow, but have more concern for themselves and their lively hood than they do about God Himself, you know, those who refuse to die to themselves, but still want to claim to be united with Yeshua(Jesus). I'm not calling out unbelievers in America, that's not my job, after all unbelievers are just being what they are suppose to be. I'm calling out those who claim to be of the body of HaMashiach(The Messiah). Thought I'd clarify such before I get into this can of worms..

As we all know In America the elections are coming upon us, It's almost November already, and while some of us have lost hope and have chosen not to even vote, I've noticed an alarming trend amongst those who claim to be followers of Yeshua(Jesus). This trend I am speaking of is "FEAR", now obviously fear is nothing new, it's as old as creation, and political fear or the popular "Vote for the lesser of evils" is as old as politics. My question is, have we even really thought about "Vote for the lesser of evils"? 

(this is where the apple cart upsetting starts)

What do you think God thinks about your choice to "vote for the lesser of evils" do you think He thinks its noble? Let me answer that for you…NO! God looks at evil as…well...EVIL! there is no distinction between "evils", it's like saying you told a "white lie"..God still looks at it as a lie, and it's like saying being a homosexual is wrong and at the same time saying it's ok to heterosexually sleep outside of marriage, to God both are a sin and both are equally wrong.

But wait…wait…wait..this is politics..right? what does God have to do with politics? we are not voting for a rabbi/pastor we are voting for a president..

Woe to those who call evil good

and good evil,

who change darkness into light

and light into darkness,

who change bitter into sweet

and sweet into bitter!

Isaiah 5:20

We may not be voting for a rabbi/pastor but the fact of the matter is God isn't for evil(sin) He is abhorrently against it, the bible makes that crystal clear, The Son was crucified because of sin(our sinfulness), not to tolerate sin but to fundamentally ABOLISH IT! To answer the question of what does God have to do with politics? what doesn't He have to do with it? Is He not in control of all things? He's the one who puts people in positions of power, and we as a "free" country our privileged to be able to vote for the leader of the country.

Now some may say, if God's in control and puts people in power, then why even bother voting?

To me that's like saying "God's the one that heals and feeds the poor, why even bother trying to help?"

The fact is I know whoever wins the election will win because God has a purpose and a plan in it(It could very well be to pour out His wrath), but that doesn't mean that I don't get involved and vote for someone who stands by God and His word. My conscious before God will be clean in who I vote for, because I sought to stand by His word and not compromise with evil out of fear of the other party.

Romney is considered the lesser of evils compared to the democrat runner Obama, I suppose I could see how some people could think that…but the truth is there isn't much difference between the two. Asking me to choose between Romney and Obama is like asking me to drink either cyanide or nuclear waste…

Which is why I find it alarming that Christians in this country are supporting Romney, mainly it is out of fear of having another four years of Obama. First of all, like I just said if you honestly look at Romney and Obama they are not that different, second why don't you go read your bible and see what happens when you put FEAR ahead of God. That's the problem with people now adays, they run around with chickens like their heads cut-off basing their whole life on FEAR and not the good kind of FEAR…like the FEAR OF THE LORD, that's the only FEAR you should have. If Christians aka followers of Yeshua(Jesus) in this country actually had a fear of the LORD then they certainly wouldn't be voting for a mormon, and they would also be seeking to stand by Gods commandments, but thats a whole other story. Or maybe come to think of it it's not another story at all, this country is going to get what it deserves for mocking God, for claiming to follow Him but ignoring His commands.

Romney puts on a front that he's pro-life but he's far from it, he's also for homosexual marriage and the very "god" he worships isn't the one true God of Abraham,Isaac, and Jacob. But yet, you'll vote for him because he's not Obama? because he's white and maybe a little less socialistic? What is with Christians who just vote Republican  and think they are doing God's will? they don't do their research…they don't check the fruit…they just vote R and think they are good christian Americans for doing so. I respect someone who chooses not to vote more so then one who just votes for one party because they put the party before the standards of God. Not that my respect means a thing, but seriously when are those who claim to be of  Meshiach(Christ) going to start living like it? When are you going to wake up from your westernized entertainment driven selfish mind-set….and….

DIE TO YOUR SELF!(Matthew 16:24,Mark 8:34, Galatians 2:20)

For my people have committed two evils:

they have abandoned me,

the fountain of living water,

and dug themselves cisterns, broken cisterns,

that can hold no water!

Jeremiah 2:13

Just like Israel at the time, I'm sure you will ask;

"How have we abandoned God?"

We are in a moral decline, God and His word is being mocked by those you support. Murder of babies has become just another "issue" same with gay marriage.

You sacrifice TRUTH for the sake of tolerance, because you think tolerance is love, wake up you have been infiltrated and you don't even realize it! 

You may claim politics is a useless issue, but sitting

back and doing nothing is condoning the evil you are suppose to abhor. You let the world shape your biblical view when it is suppose to be your biblical view shaping your world view! I expect such from those without GOD but if you proclaim to be apart of the body... then where is the biblical shaping!? where is the change?! where is the love for God and His word?! the love of His TORAH!

You want this country to be better, you cry about the economy, and your wealth & prosperity, and you will seek anyone and everything to better that for you, except GOD. Because God has standards, because GOD sent the Son Yeshua(Jesus) to die for sin and make us Holy, not out of pity, but to make us HOLY… but you westernized American Christian just want His death for forgiveness and prosperity! not for Holiness, because your god isn't the GOD of the bible! your god is success and wealth…your god is money…

So you ignore what He abhors, and live contrary to His word making for yourself broken cisterns, like in Jeremiah's time. you live like the whore that Ezekiel 16 talks about and yet... still claim to be on God's side,

you walk on the proverbial fence/line when God says choose a side!

Woe to you who settle for less then God's standards!

Woe to you who don't FEAR the LORD GOD!

God wont be mocked!

 I am voting independent. Tom Hoefling to be exact…I suggest you do your own research, instead of blindly following the media and wolves in sheep's clothing christian leaders.

Oh, and for the record…I don't HATE Obama or Romney, I abhor their policies yes, and the fact that people can't see through the bull, but I understand they don't have GOD so their actions don't surprise me, and all I can do is pray for GOD to open their eyes, before it's to late. God will have His way, His will… it will be done, all I can do is seek to stand by His word.

Be †Killing † SIN

Abba you got the power

I walk in Your Holy grace

to the destruction of my selfish ways

-and-

No matter how many times I lose,

I'm going to fight this flesh until I am dead in you.

I feel the presence of evil

Seeking to have me so focused on my mistakes that I wont be able to spread the gospel of His Grace.

In the darkness of this hour, I feel the somber silence the thick air leaving me breathless again.

With eyes fixed on the Son

I stand again, ready to face any tribulation. 

Abba you got the power

I walk in Your Holy grace

to the destruction of my selfish ways 

-and-

No matter how many times I lose,

I'm going to fight this flesh until I am dead in you.

This battle has already been won

and this careless war that's raged

can't hold a candle to His sacrifice.

Keep promising me happiness and wealth

what does that matter if I'm not promised tomorrow?

Take your pride and your worldliness

pick up your cross and crucify it all…

You want peace and change?

well, somebodies got to die

either you or Christ…

make your choice.

Lord enlighten me with your word

every move I make solidify my steps

Following the path that You have made

not wanting to walk to my desires

deep in the darkness of my lusts

Dragging this flesh to the crucifix 

killing this sin until theres nothing left.

The Gospel of Tolerance

Before I get into just how unbiblical this worldly gospel of tolerance is, I'm going to hammer home the real gospel first.

How are we saved? Is it by our goodness and our good works? no…we have only sinfulness apart from Christ, anyone who claims to be without sin is a liar and the truth is not in him(1 John 1:8) and it is by God's grace that we are saved not by works (Ephesians 2:12)

Are we saved for OUR glory? think about that for a moment, "saved for our glory"…what possibly could we offer God? God creator of the universe and EVERYTHING in it, who is all righteous and glorious! does He need us? like He is bound by some kind of law that's above Him where He has to forgive us of all our wickedness, does he seriously need us? need our approval, need our glory? of course He doesn't, it's not for our glory that we are saved BUT for HIS..

Everyone who is called by My name, Whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes, I have made him.

Isaiah 43:7

Paul said:

"God forbid if I should glory in anything except

the cross of Christ."-Galatians 6:14

"For My name's sake I will defer My anger, And for My praise I will restrain it from you, So that I do not cut you off. Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction. For My own sake, for My own sake, I will do it; For how should My name be profaned? And I will not give My glory to another.

Isaiah 48:9-11

That makes it pretty clear God doesn't share His glory.

It is by His grace, and for His glory that we are saved.

We should rejoice in this fact and present our bodies as a living sacrifice Holy and acceptable to God, as it says in Romans 12:1.

The question becomes are we living out this testament? are we living for His glory or are we living for ours? Does the word transform us to recognize its not about us or do we transform the word to be about our glory?

Romans 12:1 says by the mercies of GOD..present your bodies as a living sacrifice. So because of what God did to save you, I.E sending His son, God himself coming in the form of man and living a Holy un-sinful life, the perfect man/unspotted lamb and then being the sacrifice for our sinfulness! He took the wrath that we deserve! Because of all this, and because of who God is we surrender ourselves fully to Him, to give Him the honor and glory that is due to Him.

This is why fruit should be produced if we claim we know Him, to know Him means we know all glory is His and His alone and we seek only His will. This is why sin was and is dangerous! 
This is why the word of God says;

"The wages of sin is death"-Romans 6:23

Sin takes all focus off God and puts it on us, it becomes about what we want and desire in our fleshly nature,

OUR Desires

OUR Needs

OUR Will

Sin chokes us and intangibles us consuming our every action and purpose robbing us of the Holiness that cost Christ everything and making it all about OUR glory.

This is why daily we are called to mortify our nature, to put to death our flesh and put our focus on Christ who has overcome death, He has taken sin and overcome it for us once and for all. ALL GLORY TO HIM!

Now remember what I said the question is…

The question becomes are we living out this testament? are we living for His glory or are we living for ours? Does the word transform us to recognize its not about us or do we transform the word to be about our glory?

The gospel of tolerance isn't about God's glory period.

You see the world wants you to believe that tolerance=love, that Jesus was tolerant of sin..and if you are a Christian then you are suppose to just show tolerance and not open your mouth about what is wrong or right, for there is no right or wrong.. per say, the only wrong there is is to tell someone else they are doing something wrong and that's very "unchristian".

This is the world we live in people. You know the funny thing about tolerance is that it's not very tolerant to those who hold to the bible being absolute truth, Ironic is it not? Lets tackle issue number one

"Tolerance=Love" and well Christians are suppose to love..right? so hence we are suppose to be tolerant of wrong doing.

First of all, lets say I am married and my wife who I love is sleeping around, if I love her I should just tolerate her wrong doing right? I mean, it's just her life style she chooses to live…if I truly love her I would tolerate it right?

Or 


how about if I have a child, and he is you know living his chosen life style of being a terror by breaking things and stealing other kids toys and what not, you know normal kid stuff…if I love him I should just tolerate his choice to do so..right? I have no right to say what he is doing is wrong do I? I mean I "love him" so tolerance must be shown..

The fact is tolerance doesn't equal love like the world wants you to think, what is love? well 1 corinthians sums it up pretty nicely;

Love suffers long [and] is kind; love does not envy; 

love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 

does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, 

is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 

bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Oh look at that, none of that looks like "Tolerance" to me. We as Christians are called to love, yes absolutely..but love doesn't mean no correction, no standing firm on solid truth and no warning of wrong doing. We should correct, we should stand on biblical truth and we should warn of wrong doing and all of this we are called to do in a loving way. 

Drugs lead to a broken life and death, so if I had a friend or a son who was doing drugs would it be loving for me to just ignore their destruction and just act like what they are doing is their prerogative and it doesn't matter? or would it be loving to warn them that what they are doing isn't healthy and what they are doing leads only to death..

The answer is obviously the latter, that is actual love, which is why in a loving manner we warn that the wages of sin is death(Romans 6:23)

The gospel and Christ's message isn't a gospel/message of tolerance, if Christ was tolerant of sin then why did he say things like "Repent"(Luke 13:3) and go and sin no more (John 8:11). The fact is if Christ was so tolerant of sin then why did He come to die because of it?(Romans 6:10) and don't even say the typical liberal answer of;

"Well Christ died and it is by grace I am saved so I can continue living in sin"

That's complete garbage, Matthew 16:24-25,Romans 2:4,Romans 6:15,Galatians 2:20, the whole bible debunks such thinking. It took a cross and the wrath of God on His Son to forgive us of sin…how is that tolerance of sin?

My whole point is this…the gospel is about surrendering to Christ, it's about His glory and not ours…the bible doesn't allow for personal opinion and tolerance it's plain and simple…. believe and follow or don't.

I realize the world and the way it's going , and I know the world is going to say I am a bigot and even say I am un-christian because I am not "tolerant of sin"…but I am not accountable to the world, I'm accountable before God.

The world will rip Kirk Cameron for saying being gay is unnatural, and isn't what God wants for us on Piers Morgan. and the world, and people like Piers, will confuse "Love" with "tolerance" and ironically be intolerant of gospel truth. We were warned in the bible about  people who call evil good and good evil(Isaiah 5:20)…and warned in revelations about the Lukewarm so this is all just a sign of the times.

I'll continue to stand by God's word un apologetically, and because I do that doesn't mean I hate gay people. They have the same opportunity of eternal life as I do and it is ONLY through surrendering to Jesus Christ. 

A homosexual might say "well it's easy for you to be saved and stand by the bible because it is heterosexual and doesn't say what you do is wrong"

Actually, it isn't "easy" specially in this oversexed generation to live a surrendering life to Christ. Just because I'm straight doesn't mean it is "easy" for me, I struggle all the time with lust, after all I am not married and if I were to have sex outside of marriage with a woman I would be just as wrong as a homosexual,

sin is sin…sexual immorality is sexual immorality it doesn't matter if I'm straight or gay. 

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.- 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Only by the grace of God can we be saved, Only by what was done for us on that cross are we saved. We have to put to death our self-interests,our will. our flesh and fully rely on and surrender to Christ because ONLY He saves us.

Oh America...how far you have fallen...the world replaces love with tolerance and it's only a sign of the end...

with that being said....

BEWARE THE MARK OF THE BEAST!
