Forever is a long time yet only a small percentage of that time is "Being" enjoyed as though an eternal reality which has been "truly" lived. (SW)
As long as there are E-motions that are also human in their nature, the demand placed upon words will never be diminished. (SW)
The man that remains convinced that Gods "Way" was intended to remain a mystery, what hope should he then have of putting to Godly use the gift(s) he has been given. (SW)
The lack wisdom will eventually suffer when "Truth" is not accepted as though it were never dispensed. (SW)
When asked, "What possessed you to say such a thing", that person should consider it a serious question from above about what has been stated as though assumed to be "Truth". (SW)
Is there such a thing as a "Lie" that comes from above everything that is an eternal matter. (SW)
God does not confuse men, yet men confuse what God intended to be from the same heart. (SW)
When is the blood of another NOT found on the hands of the innocent and when is that assumption considered to be true in the eyes of God. (SW)
1 Peter 4:11
If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. NIV
The promotion of this passage is not to suggest that one go about simply verbalizing King James scripture.
Instead it's being suggested that such a person remain willing to strive for and live as though an exhibit of what these words were intended to manifest as to then "Be" expressed.

How hard is it to give away something that is not yours as well take it home (to heart) if it's not a righteous gift.
That's not to mention what might have been wrongfully "Taken" from someone else to include their spoken "Words"

Western "Culture" would have the likes of Socrates, Plato and Darwin feed our understanding, yet are they not just men equipped with a mind, imagination and the gift of questioning which hopes to expound upon their own reasoning?
Just suppose for a moment that these men individually missed their eternal calling and that same calling was their responsibility to discover the truth and for the benefit of others they found listening to them?
Meaning they each may have put to use their God gifted abilities, but NOT according to what God intended for them to be as if for the dispensation of something more as a divine intention..
Granted, they each had something at their disposal in the form curiousity and strong will enough to where they found themselves broadcasting their thought life as though absolute (truth), yet what fueled their seeming success?
Is it not simply the appetite for the answers to the "Unknown" as though the solving of a mystery?
The Apostle Paul makes mention in scripture concerning the inclusion of an "Unknown God" as though it were a gesture (idol) that had been crafted just in case something got left out of the God factoring.
Was he thoroughly convinced that he was presently doing Gods (bidding) business here in the earth while sternly ordering and watching Christians be imprisoned and be put to death? When I read what Paul spoke of himself and his resume, what I hear is that of a man that was "All In" meaning fully invested.
If those 3 men mentioned above DID miss their (Divine) calling, how might their lack of divine contribution now effect (or infect) "Our" mutual history as though the result(s) which stemmed from their verbalized and recorded beliefs?
A belief system that did NOT come from the specific voice that has "Made" it His practice since the beginning to broadcast only that which is "True"?
Why would God who is also incapable of lying, suggest that some would be held accountable for blood shed of those that He sent to warn mankind?
In terms of responsibility and participation, how could He "Hold" them responsible since the event of their blood shed took place "before" they were even physically born?
Luke 11:49
Therefore this generation will be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning of the world, NIV
Just how narrow is the way through which God intends to lead mankind to the "Truth"?
Is that way not only through the precise, undiminished and prescribed terms of acceptance concerning the "Net" results of a life lived by one man? Namely God the "Christ"?
Today how much residuals would you suppose still exist of what these three men committed to our social mindset through the use of words?
(As a side bar, the above question as narrow as it is was not drafted with the intent to somehow excuse the multitude of other voices that cry out from antiquity to the contrary of all that truth is and does while here in the earth).
How much of what they broadcast (preached) actually interferes with the mandate which governs truth that also holds time in its grip which visited humanity in the form of this Man named Jesus?
Just how important is "One" life that's been "Truthfully" lived?
Just how much concerning truth helps shape and form (Inform) any "Beings" Identity whether human or not?
Is it simply what many agree with in the form of a legacy left behind? If yes can that legacy be manipulated by the scribe enough so that it somehow changes all that's "Being" recorded in Heaven?
Could it be that a mans identity IS his "Present" life that's "Being" lived? Divinely so as such which gets recorded "Accurately" and is left undisturbed?
Is it only what one believes that makes them "Who" they are or is it what gets recorded about them that makes it true?
Is it simply the "Who" a man assumes that he is as compared to the "Truth" OR is a man only "What" His creator has "Proven" him to be which is then witnessed by others?
How does one show themselves "Approved" by God while at the same time find themselves approved by "Men"? Jesus "Performed" miracles yet ALL that "Witnessed" them were not convinced of His identity.
How much would a mans ability to relate to others also "Prove" to be a prerequisite concerning His identity that is also "True"?
John 1:11-13
He (Jesus) came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him .
Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
NIV
For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
To the one we are the smell of death ; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task?
Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit.
On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.
NIV
All of which as mentioned falls short of just how influential those 3 then prove to be as though the power to influence others as the "need" to turn to God for the truth..
1 Peter 1:23
For you have been born again , not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
NIV
Without the consideration of his creator, would he then survey his history to then reach the conclusion which speaks, "Look how far I've come" and without a said "God"?
Is it still any wonder why "History" will not release its grip upon the hearts and minds of men?
That grip to mean such that presents itself as though a gift, yet places conditions upon such a gift "Before" it gets completely released?
History should NOT be our teacher, instead the Holy Spirit directed by the words of God should be.
WWJD (What Would Jesus Do) sounds good on paper as such that finds itself able to conjure a thought, yet as such that is void of what God has to say, what truly does one hold onto as though an image of themselves?
I find it fascinating that the eyes of a man will never behold his own image outside of that which gets presented in the form of a reflection. Glass though it may be an inanimate mirror, it's still only able to reflect the image of a being.
Believing in anything requires the harmonious alignment of a mans will (the gate keeper of the mind) which finds itself in agreement with the "said" evidence that's being presented..
Just how powerful are words that are void of the energy of our "Emotions"?
Especially when that question trails on the heels of the notion that might suggest, "Emotions are the energy produced" based on all that we've believed which then compels us to take action (Perform) in a "Specific manner".
What of the word "Zeal" or "Spirit" when they're used to express the energy found behind a given series of words sequenced together as the utterance?
Exactly where are the origins (the essence) of a mans emotional fervor?
Are emotions simply responses derived from the combined chemistry of the things consumed by a man that have taken up residency within his body?
I might agree with that philosophy as long as the essence of what is "Heard & Seen" are included in the list of things "Consumed' (Namely the heart of God in the form of His words consumed).
Jesus attempted to make clear that "It" is NOT what goes into a man that makes him unclean. Instead it's what comes out of a man's "Mouth" that makes him unclean (sinful).
Matt 15:11
What goes into a man's mouth does not make him 'unclean ,' but what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him 'unclean .'"
NIV
What has shaped (informed) that reasoning as though an "Ability" that's been dispensed?
Even as the Lord came as a 3 part being into the realm of this world, so too is our earth bound reflection of Him that is "Now" supposed to be dominated by the re-born spiritual man birthed within (Christ In You).
The tough question (here it comes), Where's the evidence that event (birthing) took place?
Is the presence of such a rebirth evidenced by words alone which testify to the presence of that new identity found within?
Or is that presence born as though a silent and deaf presence (mute)?
Jesus said, 'My sheep hear my voice" as well He says below.
John 15:9-12
"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
NIV
In the light of having accepted all that truth says that He is, it still leaves the question on the table, "which part of that 3 part being is the dominate voice which compels your over all "Presence" (being) to act in a specific manner?
Do we truly believe, 'You are what you eat" or that our body responds to "What we eat"?
Have we been reduced to "What we are is the manifested result of what we've believed or is there a more accurate assessment (being) made from above?
I suppose one would have to at least be willing to accept there is a God and that God came to mankind in the same form.
Does what you personally believe about that same God also cause Him to manifest as truth in your life that you also revere or maybe highly esteem?
A 'Philosophy" outside of truth that's founded upon mans experience is a farce, yet a philosophy that's governed by the Truth has been deemed worthy of a never ending investigation.(SW)
The phrase "Christ compels me" gets used allot these days, yet how much of what gets accredited to the accounting methods of Christ is actually true?
Have you ever said something to someone and later discovered (or justified) after realizing it was perceived as "Offensive" that it was simply put, "Taken" the wrong way"?
How much of what we do say and do, eventually proves to be something Christ has said that'e been "Taken" from Christ the wrong "Way"?
Would that make Him or you a foreigner each of which are located at the same address?
If it could ever be established in ones mind that the truth is "Never" wrong how easy would it be for someone to over step their boundaries as if an "Abuse" of that same power?
There's power to be found at the end of your arm.
Next time you remember who YOU claim also lives inside of YOU also remember you have a hand that is capable of covering YOUR mouth that's speaking.
If the author of the following words were believed to be from Christ also spoken by Christ from within the confines of a man, what else might be seen, heard and understood?
Christ In You?
Ps 34:1-5
I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.
My soul will boast in the LORD; let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together.
I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.
NIV
