Not on this earth
...but where it matters

Many people refrain from it,
many are oblivious to it,
and many don't even know it's going on.
But, there are some that do and for
these very few - the fight is on...

This goes way past the visceral emotions that are played out daily and 
identifies who and what we really are. Some say go to school, get good 
grades, get a good job, marry the right person, make a lot of money, 
and then retire... Nowadays, society, security, and the future are in 
flux. To combat this uncertainty, people become more defensive, more 
insensitive, more aggressive. They are confused in not knowing what 
they are fighting for because the cherished ideals of their future are 
in doubt. They now become the unwilling participants in a paradox of 
tarnished dreams. This is not to say that the noble pursuit of wanting 
to provide for their family is bad but, the true motives behind it is 
what is truly at stake...

This rightly gives rise to the old axiom of "a means to an end" now 
becomes an "end to a means"... How ironic life is.

The tables of the world’s wealth are now shifting where a 
reconsolidation is being seen. One wise pundit well versed in the 
mechanics of the banking system once quipped: it's not what you own, 
it's what you control. The reason people are falling out of sorts is 
because they are losing control with their personal environment, 
relationships, and future since retirement seems to be the rewarding 
of the comfort level that most people "work" for. It's a nebulous "in the 
future" concept that everything that you do in the present is just a 
ramping up to its intended goal. Since that goal is jeopardized, 
reality sets in.

Jesus said – for where your treasure is, there shall your heart be also. 
The world system seeks to control life whereas God's system seeks to 
give life and to give it more abundantly. People are never satisfied 
because their means to an end is never attained. At least not in this 
life.

In a way, the greatest chance for the world’s failure now becomes the 
greatest opportunity for growth. Do most people know this? - Probably 
not (unless you tell them). Most everyone fights for their standing in 
society while God says be still and listen for his word. In the cool 
stillness of your heart you will find the Lord for all them that seek 
him diligently he shall be found. Even in the midst of overwhelming 
change, difficulties, pain, and uncertainty when the bills go unpaid 
and the debts increase, and the doubts arise. When your spirit groans 
in agony that you can't make it and your health fails, and you cry out 
in fear; be comforted to know that based on your willingness to follow 
the Lord, he will supply your every need.

We can't do it alone... Because if we could, we wouldn't be in the 
predicament we're now in. Indeed, we are in the fight for our lives 
where the spiritual transcends the physical, where doubt and 
uncertainty are replaced with faith and hope. Not the empty words of 
a politician, but the words of an Almighty God who gives a message of 
redemption and life to a dying world. By the death of one man who was 
clothed in the form of a human as God who through his eternal undying  
love for all humankind died as a human for our sins so all that did place    
their hope in Him (faith) might live. And that is a future that a person doesn't
have to work for. A future where it can never be taken away or tarnished.  
A future where instead of it being predicated on conditional terms, is 
guaranteed on the eternal economy being love.
Love never fails.

Knowing the power source of love is key. Otherwise, a person is doomed 
to fail even if they gain the whole world but lose their very soul in 
the process. God is looking for more people who will stand with him 
and make that decision in faith that after having done all to stand, stand.

The physical world that we now see is but a prelude to the spiritual 
reality that we don't see. Since our future consists in days, months 
and years by the Chronos system of reckoning and looked back on in the 
form of a "chronology" of events; we look forward to a "time" in which 
we will be liberated from our past. This redemption is the key.

Only Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life and no one comes 
unto the Father but by him.

This is the message we must share to a dying world. The stakes are 
high and the consequences eternal. This world system is not the way 
and will only lead to destruction. The signs are all around us.

Since we are spiritual beings having a physical experience, it 
behooves us to know that the physical end only leads to death but the 
spiritual to life. The battle lines are drawn and the final war 
begins. The microcosm now becomes the macrocosm.

Now sides must be taken and decisions made. Life now goes beyond the 
realm of arbitrary events to one of choosing on what side you want to 
be on for all eternity and spiritually fighting for that cause. The 
Bible says that Satan goeth about as a roaring lion seeking whom to 
devour (destroy). How true. Jesus came not only to give life but to give it 
more abundantly. How true. Right now God is calling all nations to his 
eternal security except Satan who is the master deceiver will try to 
stop all who desire to know the truth of God's free gift of salvation. 
You can't work for it otherwise it wouldn't be a gift. Your attendance 
at a Corporate Church won't guarantee it otherwise it wouldn't be 
faith. You're denial of it does not mean that it doesn't exist. For 
the Lord will reward those who diligently seek after him.

The battles will be hard. The fog of war will be thick. The trials 
intense. But, the people who do know their God shall be strong and do 
exploits.
