America needs to wise up.
And we need to do it very soon.
One of Hitler’s greatest tricks was to claim he was a victim, that he was being bullied, that he was somehow being cheated.
And then, once he got his foothold, he began his mission:
World Conquest, Extermination, Violence
We simply cannot tolerate, from any group, the profession of good when we see evil.
Jesus has given us a playbook that we need. I go to His Word in every aspect of my life that I want to succeed.
- He is the greatest coach that ever lived. So I have read “His stuff” as a coach.
- He has a great teaching on good leadership and bad leadership—just read about His interaction with Pontius Pilate.
- He gives us great stuff on parenting.
- He gives us great stuff on marriage.
- He gives us great stuff on sex.
If we want something to be fixed, God Can.
God Can fix the broken.
God Can bring people together.
God Can deliver.
I want to start with this verse:
Matthew 7 12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
In every issue that we face, we must apply this rule.
DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO TO YOU.
How would you want to be treated?
How would you want someone near to you to be treated?
If we will stand up for justice and live by this simple rule of Matthew 7:12, we can fix things. But we must STAND.
Our country is great because of people at the ground level doing the right thing. I am not claiming that it is perfect, but I am certainly against burning it down and starting over.
We must decide what is okay and what is not okay.
- I am not okay with calling looting, assaulting, stealing, and vandalizing “a protest”. And I do not believe that God would either.
- I am not okay with professing that we are trying to protect people if there are people dying. And I do not believe that God would either.
- I am not okay with police officers being assaulted and abused and insulted while claiming that we are fighting for justice. And I do not believe that God would either.
I am against claiming to be a victim while acting like a perpetrator. And I do not believe that God would like it either. It is not based on truth and it is the very thing that Hitler did before doing some of the most hideous things that the world has ever seen.
Let’s all agree that the golden rule is the key to what we are doing… “do unto others as you would have them do to you”.
I welcome comments back and, if I get them, will speak to them in future blogs. I welcome peaceful conversation that includes truth and Godly principle.
God bless you.
In The Name of the Father and the
Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
