given. The Bible said it, I believe it and we all have experience of the
nearness. ---Satan’s tantrums of destruction? God is
near and we have to be patient and enduring. And we can, with Agape love in our
hearts. Godly love. ---Godly love do not want to take revenge
when hurt. “It is my right to…” No, with God near you permitting it, there is a
theater reason why. Just wait it out. It is your privilege not to react. You
will see. ---If someone asks you to walk one mile,
walk two. Who said it? Jesus. Did Jesus walked the second mile in His life? ---Was Christ patient with the mob
influenced by the spiritual leaders of His day? Yes. ---Eight days ago the Anglican church in
Australia’s conservative Bible thinkers split from the Mainstream Traditional
Church. Why? The Mainstream Traditional Church is trying to satisfy the
populist trend for gay marriages. ---On video they asked the director of
spiritual development of the Mainstream Traditional Anglicans, Why? The
gay-marriage is one, he said, but they do not like the progressives’ rejection
of a 2000 year old Book [Bible] on how to marry. ---Christ was not married and he did not
say, let me grab John or Peter. ---It is correct, there is no biblical
support for gay marriages. Those who support it is anti-biblical. The Bible is
the Word of God. Faith is about following the Word of God. If not, there is no
faith. ---God's character of Love is packed in the Bible in bits and pieces coming out
of human history here and there and one can collect it and be surprised! ---God is not walking with a battery
tennis racket to shock humans to death like we do with mosquitos and flies. ---Love is God and His dealings with man
is love as well. Why disasters? That is why Jesus had to die. Satan broke the
Law of God which is love and which is His character to bring equilibrium in the
universe. That simple. ---We are part of this theater of the
cosmic struggle. We did not ask to be born but were given the privilege to be
born so that we have the ability to be a winner in the theater. Everyone can be
a winner. ---Oh, it is the usual stuff the Baby
Boomers and Still Generation before World War II talk about. We as Generation X
born since 1965, only want success but quickly. Hurry-up. Insta-honor. No patience.
If you win, win quickly. ---Generation X has children called the Millennials.
They are having differences with their parents but are the practical part of
liberalism of which Generation X was the theoretical part of it. ---The Millennials’s children is our
current high-school and university students. They are Generation Z. They think
in their minds they are different than all generations before them. Their
younger sisters and brothers are Generation Alpha. We do not know what they are
going to be? ---The push-drive of Liberalism by the
Baby Boomers in theory, the Generation X in theory and practice, the
Millennials in theory and practice, is not necessarily shared by the Generation
Z. The Kindergarten Alpha Generation we will see later. ---If you as conservative can make yourself
clear in two minutes with an appeal to the Generation Z, they listen. But not
the Generations before them. They are skeptical. ---Ellen White said that the work will be
completed by the youth. Maybe she is right. Maybe the Generation Z and Alpha despite
smartphone overdrive and the negative effect of Covid-vaccine reflection
redundancies (my experience), will be the ones to do it? Hope lies in the
Future.
