Active Faith in Jesus in a World on a Knifes Edge


Where is your/ my faith ?

What will you do when there are no hospitals or doctors to go to and you are very sick, when your food has run out, when the enemy is at your door ?

Change is coming and it's not the good kind.

Jesus returned to Capernaum, and a few days later the news went out that He was at home.
So many people gathered together that there was no longer room [for them], not even near the door; and Jesus was discussing with them the word [of God]. 


3 Then they came, bringing to Him a paralyzed man, who was being carried by four men. 

When they were unable to get to Him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above Jesus; and when they had dug out an opening, they let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying. 

5 When Jesus saw their [active] faith [springing from confidence in Him], He said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” 

But some of the scribes (man contaminated religion leaders) were sitting there debating in their hearts [the implication of what He had said],
“Why does this man talk that way? He is blaspheming; who can forgive sins [remove guilt, nullify sin’s penalty, and assign righteousness] except God alone?”
Immediately Jesus, being fully aware [of their hostility] and knowing in His spirit that they were thinking this, said to them, “Why are you debating and arguing about these things in your hearts? 


9 Which is easier, to say to the paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven’; or to say, ‘Get up, and pick up your mat and walk’?  


But so that you may know that the Son of Man has the authority and power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the paralyzed man,  “I say to you, get up, pick up your mat and go home.” 

And he got up and immediately picked up the mat and went out before them all, so that they all were astonished and they glorified and praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

MARK 2: 1-12




The world is now on a knifes edge...



Two oil tankers apparently attacked in Gulf of Oman


Dubai, United Arab Emirates -- Two oil tankers near the strategic Strait of Hormuz were reportedly attacked on Thursday, leaving one ablaze and adrift as sailors were evacuated from both. The U.S. Navy rushed to assist and Iran reportedly said it did, as well, amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran.

Benchmark Brent crude spiked at one point by as much 4% in trading following the reported attack to over $62 a barrel, highlighting how crucial the area remains to global energy supplies. A third of all oil traded by sea passes through the strait, which is the narrow mouth of the Persian Gulf.

How will proud Trump respond ?

In these last days...




not on the very popular false teachers, 



and the false prophets, and those very popular, sweet souls who prognosticate false rapture dates




...and especially not on the hopeless, terminally divided clowns in Washington who are under God's judgments.


Sadly and tragically most have chosen to live their lives apart from reality and truth,



 ...and trust in smooth talking, buttery liars to their destruction. 



Jesus said to him, “I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
John 14:6


Because they love lies and not the Truth, they shall miss heaven where only truth dwells and not 1 lie, not one !
