If our transgressions and sins be upon us, and we pine away in them, how should we live?
Repent and put your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ TODAY!
“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” (Joshua 24:15)
Interestingly actually following Jesus's teachings involves not caring at all about the material world, it definitely shuns capitalism and also involves turning the other cheek to oppressors. This is WHY it's such a huge demonstration of faith, it essentially boils down to an attitude of "whatever happens, happens" because only the eternal spiritual experience matters. To truly and actively stop caring if you lose everything material and money wise and to not stand up to the modern day "Caesar" because you trust 100% in a promised eternal life with Jesus enough to follow his teachings is a really big deal. I have never personally witnessed this in anyone.
Ever played a hard video game or finished a hard book or benched that weight you always wanted to or swam deep into the ocean ??
Because after all the pain and fear , it's the really good moments that stick , our mothers love, our first professional achievements, our first victory in sport, etc, etc
Existence is merely a sieve , separating the wheat from the chaff, material success does not make you a champion , personal achievement does not make you a champion, but rather it is our fellowship amongst our selves and adherence to the right in life
Why continue because one day, our children will live as once was ordained , in happiness as Adam and Eve did, but that demands our sacrifice, our generations will look back and recall that indeed we were the right ,
We stand so that our children , existence itself can feel happiness and joy, that makes it all worth it to me,
Dark are the days when the courage of men fails, an age of wolf's and shattered shields when the age of men comes crashing down , but it is not this day
We stand as men of East and West, I don't care if you believe in my god , just don't be down with these blood drinking, pedo cultists who want to farm you like cattle for profit
I'll cope till I win I have faith, you have cynicism see how you are rewarded stubborn fool
