A story of loss, redemption, tradition, progressivism, prayers answered.

Isaiah 9:6   For a child is born to us. A son is given to us; and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Luke 1:31   Behold, you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and shall name him ‘Jesus.’

Isaiah 7:14  Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Luke 1:31  Behold, you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and shall name him ‘Jesus.’ 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom.”

Ecclesiastes 1:9 That which has been is that which shall be; and that which has been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there a thing of which it may be said, “Behold, this is new?” It has been long ago, in the ages which were before us.

This is an “oldie but goodie” movie. It stars Charlton Heston and the title of the movie is apt for today. The story line of political powers (the king) trying to change laws to his favor, the story line of people who lusted after money and power and were tempted (ultimately) by the devil, the story of betrayal, of those who were politically correct and who were unwilling to stand up to principle versus the story of one man who stood against it all on the principles of virtue and staying true to his conscience and soul, it is a timeless story. And if you understand this story, you will understand how this covid tyranny came to be. Just change a few names, modernize the story to today, and you will see the story line matches. Truly this is a man, or a story, “for all seasons”.

You can buy a high quality video to view this Christmas season when people have time off to do something beyond the normal routine.  Or, you can look on Youtube and find a copy (maybe) for free. The quality will be not as good, but if you want to watch it for free, that is the way to go. I recommend the Charlton Heston version as he plays the part of the virtuous character very well.

Also, since the discussion is about the current medical tyranny, I am going to post some information that you should share as it is important. You may already know some of this. Some of it you may not.

This is critical information regarding the jab and hospital protocols.  And there are links to even more information.

You (or your children) can die or be killed if you do not understand the dangers of hospital protocols and the jab. You should at least study this information once for an informed decision.

Also, Dr. Andreas Noack (chemist) taught something he knew about that does not show up in petri dishes. In other words, a biologist or doctor will not know this. There is a 4 page .pdf you can read, as well as a video to watch.  The video starts with his wife and then goes on to his recorded talk.

At a sister site,  ShineOnHealth there are multiple videos and articles about Covid-related incidents or knowledge are posted or reposted.  All of them are very important.  The three links listed above are not intended in any way to slight any of the other fine professionals and the knowledge they have shared.  All is very important.  But since many people are confused about hospitals, they should start with the Dr. Ardis information.  Then keep educating yourself with more information.

At the shineonhealth.com site, you can do search for other doctors you have heard about like Dr. Zelenko or Dr. Peter McCullough or others.  You can try search terms of “Dr”, “Dr.”, “Doctor” or use their name.  This is why it is recommended to save posts you prefer to share.

Do a search for “Ivermectin” as well.  I personally took Ivermectin and credit it for helping me recover.  Saying that Ivermectin does not work is a lot of horse nonsense (pun intended).

Please share this information with people you know.  It might save their lives, or the lives of those they know.

Share this movie with people who like to watch movies, the bonus information about covid / hospitals may then also be of interest to them.

You can die or be killed if you do not understand the dangers of hospital protocols and the jab. You should study both sides of the question and study this information and more before making an informed decision.

The reason this blog at times blends scriptures to current events, is because they are relevant.  People are being destroyed for lack of knowledge.  Scriptural knowledge and principles apply outside of the four walls of a church, as well as within a church itself.

At the bottom of each post there is a link to ShineOnHealth where multiple videos and articles about Covid-related incidents or knowledge are posted or reposted.  All of them are very important.  The three links listed above are not intended in any way to slight any of the other fine professionals and the knowledge they have shared.  All is very important.  But since many people are confused about hospitals, they should start with the Dr. Ardis information.  Then keep educating yourself with more information.

Acts 2:40  With many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation!”

Ephesisans 5:15  Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, ¹⁶ redeeming the time, because the days are evil. ¹⁷ Therefore don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

What does “redeem” mean?  One thing it means is to “buy back”.  If you purchase something and decide it is not suitable or the wrong size, some stores allow you to return or “redeem” your money.  You can get your money back to use for something else.

To “redeem time” is to use time for something more profitable for God’s kingdom than how you were originally thinking of using that time.

Can you increase time?  Not actually.  But you can manage time differently.

Hebrews 12:1  Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

I Corinthians 10:23  “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are profitable. “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things build up.

We all have to make choices of how we use time.  The Bible indicates that while some things are permissible, they are not the wisest use of time.

How do we find out the best use of time?  This takes a dedicated walk with God.  It means taking time to read the Bible.  It means taking time to pray.  It means taking time to listen to God.

James 1:5  But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. ⁶ But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. ⁷ For that man shouldn’t think that he will receive anything from the Lord. ⁸ He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Luke 9:23  He [Jesus] said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.²⁴ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, will save it.²⁵ For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?

The Bible teaches that the kingdom of heaven is eternal.  The best use of time is to lay up treasures in heaven.  That means getting involved with what God is interested in, which is the salvation of souls.  In the end, souls being in heaven rather than hell is the only thing that matters.

Matthew 6:19  “Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; ²⁰ but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal; ²¹ for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

This is an attempt to give a simple explanation for the question, “Why did Jesus die for our sins?”

God created the world.

God created Adam and Eve.

Everything was perfect until Eve, and then also Adam were deceived into disobeying God.

Fellowship with God was broken.

Legally, a price had to be paid for sin.

Jesus came from heaven to pay for the crime against God. He was willing to pay the price so that man’s fellowship with God could be restored, for anyone who would believe, repent, and receive Jesus and what Jesus did at the cross, also called, Calvary.

Think about jurisdiction.

If a crime is committed in New York, it is not tried in California.

Likewise, since the crime of sin happened on earth, it had to be legally resolved on earth.

God’s universe is orderly and so solving the problem of sin was done in an orderly manner.

There is a court in heaven, the mercy seat in heaven, and this was an actual legal remedy, to use our legal terms of understanding, that Jesus did.

Sometimes it is hard to explain Bible things in Bible language if a person is not familiar with that terminology, but if we try to understand them in legal terms we use nowadays, it can make it more understandable.  Jesus dying on the cross was God’s remedy for sin.

God loved mankind and wanted fellowship restored. That is why Jesus came.

God could have left man with broken fellowship forever, but in his love, he made a way for people to restore relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
