There
is much excitement and activity in the world, today, about humans being unjust
with other humans, about other people’s past and present sins, and who “matters”
more than others. This all must be put in the godly perspective that there is a
rise and fall in life, through which each of us must proceed, no matter what
our good or bad accomplishments (earthly or godly), or who takes notice of
them. We must remember that God struck Moses’ sister Miriam with leprosy when
she complained that Moses had married an Ethiopian woman. We must remember that
God hates the sin of prejudicial self-interest, no matter what tint or shade of
skin with which people are born.
There
is only one human race, for we all got off the same Ark, all our present gene
pool landed with Noah’s family of eight people. All the rest of the people in
the world were destroyed by that great worldwide flood that submerged and
drowned everything. So, all the uppity nose-in-the-air nonsense is wrong for
any of us to practice. God made us all in His image. It is our personal and
collective sin against God that we all should be hating, not hating each other.
Instead of arguing with each other, we should be chastening ourselves about why
we are resisting obedience to God’s Word, for it is His Word of Life to us. If
we really choose to live God’s truth, then we shall love, cherish, and respect
one another, seeking to help one another return to God’s ways when we see our
brothers, our sisters, our youth, our elders, or our neighbors fall into sin.
I
was reading in 2 Kings 11:21 through 2 Kings 12:21 about the rise and fall of a
king who started at 7 years old, did a lot to serve the LORD righteously, and
was murdered at 47. Though his life was cut off, he lived successfully, as God defines
success in Joshua 1:8.
What
shall be said about our lives at God’s Judgment, whether we live a short life
or a hundred years? Have we even taken the time to read His Word and find out
if we are on His side? Have we accepted or rejected His plan of salvation? (which we can read,
here, in many languages)… We all shall give account to God for all of our
thoughts, feelings, and actions in which we have engaged in this life. God’s
perfect judgment shall prevail, so it is important that we look to His Word to
see how we measure up, for He says we all fall short of Him and His ways
because of our sinful natures and our self-indulgence.
We
must all repent, and must turn to His way of salvation. Only from that
foundation shall we remove the painful obstruction of sin from our own eyes, so
that we can then “judge righteous judgment” as He commands us to do. Only then shall
we begin to understand godly biblical knowledge by which to measure and challenge
every sin that humanity commits. God only offers us Jesus Christ as God’s way for
us to escape from eternal condemnation of all of our sin. Only the sinless
blood of Christ paid for it all. By His bodily resurrection from death He
proved Himself God over all things, able to perform every one of His written
promises in His Word, the Bible.
God
commands us to obey the people and rules in governmental authority over us, as
long as they don’t violate God’s Word. Yes, there is a LOT of room for all of
our human institutions to improve and draw nearer to God and His ways. We must
remember that no human government or organization can act in harmony with God or
properly serve our fellow man unless its objectives, actions, and judgments are
based in God’s truth and Word. However, our citizenry has allowed our
government to move away from godly government, even as we have moved away from
godly living. We have all been guilty, at some point, of pointing sin-stained
fingers at others.
The
BLM movement is no exception. Now, or in the past, the Black Lives Matter
movement, as many other groups, have publicly and in their websites stated
that they seek to promote unholy relationships and activities that God says are
abominations, even to the point of publishing in their websites that they seek
to tear down the “nuclear family” as God defines family. Only a few weeks ago,
BLM had several manifesto-like website comments, in their About and What We
Believe links, including intentions to attack the nuclear family and to foster their
promotion of unholy relationships and unholy actions. Their anti-family info (from
their website) must have quickly spread across the internet, for it seems to
have utterly disappeared.
Instead
of continuing to, publicly, admit their formerly published hostile intents, they
seem to have scrubbed and shortened the appearance of many areas of their
public website, including their About and What We Believe links. Today, I could
not relocate the formerly posted hostile comments. Either BLM mistakenly allowed
some anti-God anti-family radical/s to gain access to their IT department and post
misrepresentations of BLM goals and objectives, OR… BLM is now retreating from
their former public attack on the nuclear family and hiding their true intents.
IF some radical person/s posted those hostile comments and intents contrary to BLM
policy and objectives, there has been no posting or no public apology on their
website regarding the former hostile comments that sought the destruction of
the nuclear family. Therefore, comparing their past and present website info, BLM
appears to be a group that has no respect for God, His ways, or godly family
structure.
