Winds of Change
11/13/11
It
is a very windy 1st day of the week as I sit in my office at my computer desk
looking out the window. The winds make me think about the changing
weather and how the nice Autumn weather will
eventually turn to Winter snow and ice. But the winds also make me
think about the changing world in which we live.
Change
Agent: Those who act as a catalyst for change.
Politicians
and Presidents actually speak much about change, but what change are they
actually speaking about? There has been a very evident shift to the
left among all facets of our society. Even those on the right have
unknowingly made the shift. It has been said that the conservatives
of our day would have been the liberals of yesteryear. If the right
has moved that far to the left, just how much farther has the left moved to the
left? The present trends of the world is a
leftist shift toward Socialism. Their desire is the complete
destruction of our way of life that we cherish here in the United States
of America. The change agents have been very diligent and hard at
work and it looks as if they have been very successful, as is evident in the
changes we see in our society. If the USA falls so falls
the world!
Our
very President speaks of change and was at one time a very successful community
organizer. All of these occupy wall street events
are nothing more than the doings of a change agent. Their goal is
not only the destruction of our society but the merger of all nations into a
one world system, which will bring about the greatest wave of persecution
against Yah's people that the world has ever
known.
That
system will also have a religious aspect to it as well. We have
Socialists, Capitalists, Islamist, Catholics and other such groups fighting it
out for control. Somehow, someway either by destruction or merger, a
one world government and religion will emerge. The daughters of the Whore Church (Rev.17)
are coming home to mommy through the modern unity and ecumenical
movements. You will continually see mergers of such groups that will
overlook truth and sound doctrine in order to have unity. Have you
ever heard of Chrislam? (Matt.24; Rev.13;
18:4)
The
most distraught change has come in the churches of Christianity. They
also have moved to the left with a much more liberal stance on morals and even
how they perceive as "sin." Sin is no longer so sinful to
this modern Church. The satan
is a great change agent. He has infiltrated the Churches of
Christianity with His own secret agents to affect change upon the hearers
sitting in their congregations. "For such are false apostles,
deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Messiah. And no marvel; for the satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the
ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."
2nd Cor. 11:13-15
And
so the old proverbial growing snow ball of false doctrine has so overwhelmed
Christianity that Messiah actually was forced to make the prophetic statement
"............when the Son of man comes, shall He find faith on the earth?
Luke 18:8b Yes, He will find
faith, but the inference is that faith will be hard to find.
Faith: Strong's
Concordance G4102
From
G3982; persuasion, that is, credence; moral conviction (of religious truth, or
the truthfulness of Yahweh or a religious teacher), especially reliance upon
Messiah for salvation; abstractly constancy in such profession; by extension the
system of religious (Good News) truth itself: - assurance, belief, believe,
faith, fidelity.
G3982
A
primary verb; to convince (by argument, true or false); by analogy to pacify or
conciliate (by other fair means); reflexively or passively to assent (to
evidence or authority), to rely (by inward certainty): - agree, assure,
believe, have confidence, be (wax) content, make friend, obey, persuade, trust, yield.
Faith
has a much broader meaning that to just believe and have the assurance of
Yahshua for our eventual salvation, which should always be its primary
meaning..... but it also means to be so
persuaded of truth to the point of being constant in your belief as being faithfully
loyal through obedience by yielding oneself to the authority of the Messiah as
Master.
But
many in today's liberal Christianity are not constant in the original Apostolic
Truth. They have fallen for the change agents who are disguised as
ministers of righteousness, when in reality they are the ministers of the satan, who's mission
is to deceive, even if they don't know they are being used for that purpose.
Most
of today's Christianity are not loyal as in
being in true fidelity unto Messiah. They have become as spiritual
harlots and adulterers by not remaining true to their spiritual husband but
rather have gone out whoring themselves with the ways of the world. They
will not yield themselves unto the authority of the Mastership of Messiah, but
rather yield unto disobedience and to their own will. And so little
by little the sect of Christianity has fallen into moral decay. Many
not only defend but actually engage in immoral and non-scriptural activities.
Yes
change has come to these Churches as well. They no longer even know
of the scriptural way of living according to the precepts of a living El. Yahweh
has set down the standards in His Torah law of commandments. Those
standards show us the way that He expects His people to live.
There
is one who is constant and without change.
"For
I am the Yahweh, I change not......" Malachi 3:6a
"Yahshua Messiah the same yesterday, and to
day, and for ever." Hebrews
13:8
Messiah
does not change. Sin is still sin to Him. (1st John 3:4) Yesterday, (during the old covenant times) and today, (during the
times of the re-newed covenant) and forever. (on into the prophetic future until sin will be no more)
Yahweh
has His own change agents. He has true ministers and true people who not only
trust Him for their salvation, but they also are loyal and obedient unto His
ways, yielding themselves to His will. They teach a righteous
change. Repent or perish! (Luke 13:3)
