2 Corinthians 10:4
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal...
Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
This is for the Christian warmonger. Check yourself. Make sure that
you are not a child of the devil, spiritually and ignorantly, part of
the synagogue of satan (Rev 2:9 & 3:9). It is what Jesus relegated
to the murderous pharisees in John 8:44.
John 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the LUSTS of your father ye will
do. He was a MURDERER from the beginning, and ABODE NOT IN THE TRUTH,
because there is no truth in him. When he SPEAKETH A LIE, he speaketh of
his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
U.S. Foreign policy is full of LUST (of money and natural resources)...
U.S. Foreign policy is filled to the brim with MURDER (especially of
brown-skinned people (Arabs & Africans... Semitic people, by the
way)... which is indiscreet racism...
U.S. Foreign policy is inundated with LIES, and UN-TRUTHS (Where are those WMDs in Iraq???)
If you are a Christian, and you support unjust and unsubstantiated
warfare, and if you support the illogical and economically unsustainable
monetary contribution (tax-payer money) to the military industrial
complex, you really need to search your heart to see if you are of the
faith. EXAMINE YOURSELF!!!
Psalm 26:2
Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
2 Corinthians 13:5
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own
selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you,
except ye be REPROBATES?
REPROBATE
n.
1. A morally unprincipled person.
2. One who is predestined to damnation.
adj.
1. Morally unprincipled; shameless.
2. Rejected by God and without hope of salvation.
A morally unprincipled person is full of iniquity in the eyes of God. What does Jesus say about those that are full of iniquity?
Matt. 7:21-23
21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in
heaven.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy
name done many wonderful works?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.
What is the "will of the Father"?
How about...
Matt. 5:44-45
44But I say unto you, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, bless them that curse you,
do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use
you, and persecute you;
45THAT YE MAY BE THE CHILDREN OF YOUR FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN: for
he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain
on the just and on the unjust.
Luke 6:27-28
27But I say unto you which hear, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, do good to them which hate you,
28Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
Luke 6:35
But LOVE YE YOUR ENEMIES, and DO GOOD, AND LEND, hoping for nothing
again; and your reward shall be great, and YE SHALL BE THE CHILDREN OF
THE HIGHEST: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
... or how about...
Proverbs 25:21-22
21If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
22For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.
Romans 12:20-21
20Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him
drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21Be not overcome of evil, but OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD.
What "good" are we doing in the Middle East? How are we "loving our enemies"?
I'm constantly reminded of something that my wife uttered years ago
when we waged war on Iraq the second time. She said "Isn't it a bit
ironic that a nation that claims to be Christian doesn't practice
'loving its enemies'?"
An absolutely profound statement!
As a Christian, you are called out to be different. You represent a
kingdom that is not earthly, but spiritual. The weapons of our warfare
are not carnal (fighting, bombs, AK-47s, tanks... the military
industrial complex), but they are spiritual, through prayer,
prophesying, proclamations, declaring, and decreeing, all done in faith.
When was the last time that you prayed for the revelation of Jesus
Christ to strike hearts in the Middle East, let alone, globally? When
was the last time that you set aside some time to pray for the men,
women, and children in the Middle East to have a face-to-face encounter
with Jesus? When was the last time that you prophesied over the Middle
East region? When was the last time you prayed for all nations to come
into the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ? When was the last time you
prayed for another nation in the Middle East BESIDES Israel? When was
the last time you prayed for ALL of the Semitic people in the Middle
East (which includes a vast amount of the Arab and North African
nations)?
Lord, I pray for the truth of Your Word to collide and demolish every
lie and stronghold that has been set up in the minds of your people in
regards to the reality of what it means to be a child of God. I pray for
the eyes of our understanding to be even more enlightened so that we
may truly know the hope of our calling today as ambassadors and
representatives of your everlasting kingdom. Let Your love shine abroad
in our hearts, and let your everlasting church be set upon a hill as the
standard and beacon of light that men, women and children will be drawn
to and become a part of your kingdom. Let our first love be loving
people! In Jesus name! I bind every spirit of hate, warfare, malice,
murder, violence, ignorance, haughtiness, pride, arrogance, deceit,
deception, and unbelief. I break the backbone of hatred & every
warmongering demon that seeks to pervert and twist the truth of God into
a lie, in the name of Jesus. I pray for greater levels of love and
compassion to be released AND realized amongst your people. I pray for
the love of God to be demonstrated in every area of life, including
foreign relations. I pray for the knowledge of the glory of the Lord to
continue to cover the earth as the waters cover the sea!!! In Jesus
name, Amen.

Another Useless Summit on Inner-City Violence
I can’t take it anymore. I’m so tired of people beating
around the bush and not addressing the root cause of violence in the inner city
streets, namely, Chicago. Yet another summit (this time, an EMERGENCY summit), was held in Chicago to address the issue of urban violence. However, it is the same 'dog and pony show', as usual. The same issues are raised, i.e., better education, better parenting, reinvestment in the community. Yes, that is all fine, dandy and much needed. But NO ONE is willing to address a ROOT of the issue of urban violence, and what I believe is a colossal 'elephant in the room'.
This is really a SPIRITUAL issue. Minds MUST be
renewed. Summits, boycotting the wrong entities, and marching will not do anything. A pessimistic,
“victimistic”, apathetic, coddling policy of the left (the welfare state) has
contributed mightily to the degradation of the black community. Let's be
honest. Progressive liberalism hasn't done a dang thing for the black
community. It has made things much worse. Furthermore, what's even the more sinister, Progressive liberalism has its
imprint all on the arts and entertainment, which directly effects what our
children WATCH and HEAR. That's why YOU'LL NEVER see the likes of Al Sharpton
or Jesse Jackson hold record execs and artists accountable!!! YOU'LL NEVER see the likes of those two speak truth to real power (big business and corporations directly
tied to arts and entertainment). YOU’LL NEVER see them speak out against Clear Channel and all of the garbage that is played on the radio from sun-up to… sun-up!!!
Ask yourself, why is that (in my KRS-One voice)?
Matthew 13:15-16
15 For this people's heart is waxed
gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed;
lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and
should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal
them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for
they see: and your ears, for they hear.
If you want to boycott anything, boycott WGCI... boycott Power 92... boycott V103… boycott ALL GARBAGE PLAYING RADIO STATIONS… Boycott BET, MTV, MTV Jams, and the parent
company, Viacom. Boycott all mainstream news outlets which sensationalize nonsense
like royal weddings, and Kanye and Kim Kardashian’s baby, but turn a blind-eye
to real news like thousands being massacred by drone strikes in Africa, or this
administration aiding and abetting terrorists in the Libyan rebellion and also
in Syria. Boycott the creators and parent companies of these ridiculously
violent video games, like Grand Theft Auto, God of War, and Gears of War.
Boycott Sony (PlayStation) and Microsoft (XBOX) – the parent companies of systems and games that are clinically designed
to seduce and keep our kids in a trance for hours and hours, instead of reading
a dang book and studying!
Our young kids are influenced by what they see, and what
they hear. Television and radio is raising the kids, instead of a two parent
household. 72% of black children are born out of wedlock, and a good majority
of those have no father in the picture at all. Thus, we have bastard children
trying to perpetrate as being a man, but are nothing more than babies that have
been under a half-century of psy-ops and mind control via the media.
Unfortunately, parents are just as dumbed-down and mentally diluted as the
children, and therefore there is no ability to think critically and use sound
logic and rationale to even be capable of parenting properly. What’s the outcome? The end-product is the unconscionable
violence on our city streets.
In summary, the MIND is the devil’s playground. The DEVIL is
working through big business and corporations to mentally enslave the masses.
The devil’s DEVICE is media, arts and entertainment. THIS is what has to be
attacked. This is where ALL of our attention needs to be directed to. It’s time
to start holding the devil accountable, and BE KNOWLEDGEABLE of his devices. At
the same time, place a demand on positive music, movies, videos, art, etc.
Place a demand on artists being accountable for their work and the messages
that they purvey. Parents, DO YOUR PART in filtering as much garbage from your house as possible. If need be, unplug the TV and throw it in the garbage. That's how serious this issue is.
Joshua 24:15
...but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Then, and only then, will we begin to see dramatic, and
sustained impact on our city streets.

I Have Something To Say...
I'm finally taking the initiative to get up off of my butt and start expressing myself in another medium other than Facebook posts and notes. I'm entering the blogosphere, full force, and with no remorse! I believe that I have something valid to say (all the time!.. .HA!) But most importantly, I will not be afraid to tackle those 'taboo' issues - you know, the ones that many are afraid to touch... like Religion, Politics and Economics! However, my effort will not come from either a left, or right paradigm, but from the Kingdom's perspective! In light of the kingdom of God, and what it brings to the table, how are these issues to be deciphered and settled through the prism of kingdom mindedness?
I will attempt to be as fair and balanced as possible. Some posts may seem 'right-leaning'. Some posts may seem 'left-leaning'. And some posts will be smack-dab right down the middle. Why the variation? Because the kingdom of God is not bound or subject to any political ideology or religious boundaries. There is liberty and freedom in the kingdom. There is healing and deliverance in the kingdom. There is salvation in the kingdom. I truly believe that the kingdom of God has the answer to all of the ailments in the earth. The 'salve of the kingdom' is what I will attempt to bring in my blog posts. They will not be super-theological, to where the theologically unlearned will not be able to comprehend. But my desire is to make people think outside of their box (many times, a self-imposed box) and see things from a higher perspective... from a heavenly perspective... away from the clouds of media manipulation and public opinion.
So, enjoy, chime in, be outraged, laugh, cry, agree, disagree, share... but most importantly, THINK!!!!
Proverbs 23:7
