And now, I take you to…
The TOP of the STACK:
There are a number of people nowadays who honestly believe that we are living in some type of simulation. We’re able to create virtual or simulated realities within a computer generated construct, and so many folks have begun to think we could exist inside such a system ourselves.
Now I don’t really subscribe to this notion myself, but I do think our existence is somewhat analogous to this idea. All I mean by this is, our existence can be better understood if we think about it as we do a computer generated reality. Imagine it this way…
God created a perfect system. We could live in it indefinitely. We had freedom to live, learn, grow, and enjoy true happiness. There was no sickness or disease. There was no death or decay. It was completely flawless.
Then satan came along, bent on destroying this new creation. Why? Because he had rejected God’s authority and gotten himself stripped of the authority God had previously given him. He hated God and wished to hurt Him by messing up His pet project and the mankind who’d been given authority within that perfect system.
So satan and his fellow rebels began to corrupt the system. Starting with the deception in the Garden, they introduced a powerful virus into this perfect reality. That virus was called sin, and it quickly spread and brought instability and chaos.
This went on until the entire system was corrupted except for one tiny segment, Noah and his family. God communicated to Noah how to construct a safe zone for him, his family, and certain animals. With them safely isolated, God reformatted the system. This would destroy all the corrupted files.
But satan would again do everything in his power to mess things up even worse than before. He’s been doing that for a long time, and the virus of sin is once again running rampant in our reality. We can see evidence of this every day. And we have learned to recognize it because of one special gift.
The Designer gave us the ability to be cleansed from the sin virus which controls so many. By entering the system He created through a man named Jesus, God made a way for all things to be made new again, even in the midst of the chaos and corruption.
It is by accepting and integrating Jesus into our existence that we are set free from the corruptive influence of satan. Jesus brought us truth, and He left behind His Holy Spirit – an ever-abiding portion of His presence. It acts as an antiviral shield, protecting us from the power of the sin virus.
There is coming a day soon when the entirety of the system will be reset. All corruption will be purged. We will be restored to factory defaults, resuming God’s original design as He intended. And we will exist forever with our Creator.
Meanwhile, we must stand firm and contend with the enemy within the system. Our purpose? To spread the truth Jesus gave us, which counters the viral programming and sets people free from it. Without Jesus, people remain slaves to a corrupted system.
Okay, putting the analogy aside now, the truth is that God did design a perfect reality and placed us within it as its caretakers. But we let satan take over. His influence in this world is huge, and we can see the destruction and decay all that evil has caused.
The question now is, what are you prepared to do about it? We have a mission here. Occupy until Christ returns. Occupy doesn’t mean sit by while the destruction continues. Occupy means to take ownership, and to exemplify righteousness for others. Right the wrongs, protect the innocent, and prepare the way for the coming of the Lord.
Around the World:
Shifting now to other parts of the world, who would have ever thought that peace could be possible between Israel and the Palestinians? This makes 8 big peace deals Trump has been a part of in the less than ten months he has been back in office. If he can’t secure the Nobel Peace Prize after that, there is something seriously wrong.
At the same time though, I have to be honest. And I don’t want to belittle all that’s been accomplished for this latest peace deal. But the fight between Israel and her neighbors who all want her wiped off the map has been going on practically forever. So, do I think peace will last in that region? Not to be a gloomy Gus, but I highly doubt it.
Ugh! How can you say that!? Look, let me be clear on this. I hope and pray that this peace lasts for as long as it possibly can. I’m just saying, if history is an indication at all, and if the Bible is accurate about the end times – which I believe it is – then inevitably, at some point, war will break out there again. Maybe it will be long from now. We’ll see.
But you have to see this. As long as this type of thing I’m about to show you is going on, there’s always the likelihood of more war. You wanna talk about people being programmed? Obviously, we have some major indoctrination issues here at home in the states, but look at what’s going on in the middle east.
If you’re listening to the audio podcast, I encourage you to go watch this show on Rumble. Trust me, just do it.
It’s no surprise to hear that young children are being taught to believe lies and hate certain people during terrorist training. I mean, of course that’s happening. But when you SEE it… Boy, do we ever need to PRAY!
This clip begins with a young Palestinian mother teaching her kids to hate Jews and Americans. Notice how proud she is. This is real life, folks. You can watch the whole thing at PragerU.com for free. Watch.
[clip1: “Dear Infidels”]
For those who couldn’t read the subtitles, here’s what those young children were saying. Remember, this is what they’re being taught in areas all across the middle east. One child said, “We have to make war to prove that we are stronger than the Jews.” The next one said, “They teach us that Jews are terrorists.” Another little boy said, “At school they teach us about Jews, they teach us that they are bad people. They killed our young.” Then another boy said, “They teach us in school that Jews are fickle, bad people.“
This is the reality of the world we live in. Generations of people are taught to hate and make war against us. If that’s not reason enough to pray, I don’t know what is. Again, you can see that entire video, “Dear Infidels,” for free at PragerU.com.
LIVE READ:
Folks, about 22 veterans take their own lives each day. Many come home to civilian life and can’t adjust after things they’ve seen in combat. Too many of them resort to suicide as a means of escaping the nightmares and chaos. But there’s help. Write down this number: 1-800-273-8255, that’s 800-273-8255. The Veterans Crisis Line is available right now to those who need it. If you are a veteran, or if you know a veteran who’s going through a rough time, use that number. There’s also a confidential crisis chat available at VeteransCrisisLine.net, that’s VeteransCrisisLine.net, or you can send a text to 838255, that’s 838255. Help is just a phone call, chat, or text away. Share this information and help us put a stop to veteran suicide today. Thank you.
Musical Spotlight:
Let me ask you a question. Have you ever had a moment, a holy spirit moment, where God just suddenly made you humbly aware of His presence and His realness? Perhaps you were in a worship service and that happened, or maybe you were simply in a quiet time of prayer. Everything around you fades into the background, and you realize that you are in the awesome presence of Almighty God.
I’ve experienced this on several occasions, and it’s absolutely incredible. There’s nothing else like it. But here’s the thing. Even as it happens, and all the stuff we claim to know and believe about God is suddenly confirmed, it can still take us by surprise. You’re like, “Wow, okay, I knew You were real, God, but this…this is just…” And you become speechless because there are no words to describe it.
There’s a reassurance in that moment that the world cannot take away. And that’s truly a blessing. This is what I thought of when I heard Christian artist Phil Wickham attempt to describe the experience he had. Watch…
