Three Great Jesus Quotes

Three Great Quotes About Jesus Christ

“Whatever may be the surprises of the future, Jesus will never be surpassed” – Ernest Renan

“I know men, and I tell you, Jesus was not a man. Superficial minds see a resemblance between Christ and the founders of empires and the gods of other religions. This resemblance does not exist…Jesus Christ alone founded His empire upon love, and at this hour millions would die for Him. In every other existence but that of Christ, how many imperfections.” – Napoleon Bonaparte

“Christianity is the greatest proof of Christ’s deity, because He as its head measures up the highest standard of deity.” – J. Oswald Sanders

if you want to make the world a better place

Not Called to Make the World a Better Place

Pop-Music Philosophy

“If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change.” – Michael Jackson

I hear many Christians today saying “we want to make the world a better place.” Of course this is noble and is an effort to be admired but I think this sentiment is ill advised. The reason I say this is not because I don’t think that the world needs to be better. It is not because I don’t wish it were better. Frankly I think the world is an absolute mess.

The reason I think this world-view is ill advised is because it is not in step with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Jesus does not want to make the world a better place. Jesus is actually displacing the world with himself and his new humanity.

The idea that the world will be made better by us being kinder or more generous doesn’t reflect reality.

This World-System Has No Future

Imagine its 1943 in Nazi Germany and the Germans started saying “let’s make Nazi Germany a better place.” At the peak of the war crimes, the killings, the concentration camps. That is the equivalent of us saying it today in comparison to what is coming in Jesus Christ. Surrender to the coming regime of Jesus Christ is the only option. But not a physical military surrender an inner spiritual surrender. Until that happens, if billions are in rebellion to the real Lord of the earth, this world should not be “made better.”

It’s not reform we are pushing for in the world it’s a conquering nonviolent displacement of Satan.

The world will not be better until Jesus Christ (and not Satan) is absolute Lord. This world as we know it has absolutely no future. I want to make Jesus Lord of heaven AND EARTH. Because this world is still being run by satanic systems and forces.

Our governmental, religious, economic, entertainment, and educational systems are still dominated and controlled by satanic forces. Some of them reluctantly tolerate Christian influence begrudgingly and only if we are kept at the bottom of their hierarchies.

Make the World…Surrendered to Him

Maga

Editing our philosophy to live by.

The only thing that I want to see the world become is subject and surrendered to the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. Anything less than that is just pop music.

Throwback Thursday: The Sound of a Healthy Spring

Pond Awakens Before Spring

Every year this is the sound that lets my family know that spring is here: peepers of spring

peepers

peepers

The first animals to awaken from our pond are the frogs we call peepers, they get very loud. This winter (2013) had seemed particularly long so this sound is particularly sweet to us.

2018 Update

[Its late February 2018 now and I thought I would revive this post from 2013. I’m eagerly anticipating the start of spring again. When I hear these first peeps from these mini frog I plan to dance a jig. Spring time is a particularly exciting time for me, I enjoy gardening and spending time outdoors. We live in NY and the winters seem particularly long and cold.

Since this post in 2013 I’ve learned to see Jesus Christ in all things. So I see him now in these peepers and in the end of NY winter.

Song of Songs 2:11 For behold, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. 12 The flowers have already appeared in the land; the time has arrived for pruning the vines, and the voice of the turtledove has been heard in our land.

The sounds of the peepers for me are spiritually like my friends and family discussing Jesus Christ. His name on their lips is a reminder, he is coming, he is still there, the time is short now when everything will change.]

These little frogs get progressively louder, after them come the bull frogs, then the toads.  This post is also my first attempt at adding an audio file to my blog, I plan to host a podcast soon so this mp3 file is practice for what is to come.

Check out another post about the spring time.

What sounds remind you of spring time?
