Post 79 Corruption

I don’t know about you, but I sure am tired of all the corruption going on all around me/us in

America and elsewhere.  What do you think when you consider the corruption going on in the world today?   What is corruption anyway?  It is decay.  You can’t look around and not see

It for it is in our homes, our cities, our states, our jobs, our schools, our government, and also

within many  Churches. It is going on everywhere.

 

In my opinion, it is the cancer of the world today.  It eats away at all of us and the world is trying to get us to fit into its evil ways.  Corruption is one of the effects of sin that pretty much comes from the fall back to the Garden of Eden. 

 

God created perfection and mankind fell.  They listened to the voice of the devil over the voice of God.  In the beginning, there was no pain, no sorrow, and no death.  Then, sin entered the world and the world has gone downhill ever since.  Because of the actions of Adam and Eve sin entered into this world and all that has happened is that it has gotten worse and worse.  (Romans 5:12) We live in a state now of decay and all-out corruption.  However, we do not have to partake in that corruption nor should we.  We do not have to fall into moral contamination and decay in our own life. 

 

Physical death didn’t happen right away, but spiritual death happened at that first sin.  What does and did that mean?  It meant, and means, a separation from God.   You see, up until the first sin, Adam and Eve had a personal relationship with God, the Creator.  Read Genesis 2:17, and

Ephesians 2;1-3

 

The world went into a tailspin after this.  When Noah came along the corruption on earth

intensified so much and there was so much evil that God sent a flood to destroy the people by a flood. Violence had gone amok.  Read Gen 6:11-12)

 

Stop here and think what corruption and evil look like in today’s world!  How bad has it gotten?  What do you think God is about to do because people won’t change?  Throughout the Bible people have been warned and told to confess, repent, and change.  Some have, of course, but

The mass of people has not changed.  “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.’ They are corrupt, their deeds are despicable; no one does well. The LORD looks down from

heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. All have

turned away, all have become corrupt; no one does good, not even one” (Psalm 14:1–3; see also Psalm 53:1–3; Isaiah 1:4).  Did you see that?  All have become corrupt, and there is not even one who does good.  Hey, that means that each of us has issues that we need to

personally deal with. 

 

Well, I am no spring chicken here…I’m old!  But!!!!!!!!!!   In my lifetime I have gone from what felt pretty safe to an outright scary way of life.  Each day has brought way more evil and corruption

into our world and space around each of us.  Corruption is literal, physical, and full-on moral

decay.  Read: Job 17;14, Psalm 16:10, Exodus 32:7

In the Bible, the prophets took a stand against moral decay among God’s people: “The sin of

the house of Israel and Judah is extremely great; the land is full of murder, and the city is full of

corruption”  Read Ezekiel 9:9   Well, look around people…is it getting any better?  No, of course not, it is getting worse by the day.

 

What does the Bible say about sin?  It teaches that sin has consequences and if the person doesn’t repent and change…this death! Read Romans 6:23    The Bible also states that God has offered each of us eternal life (no, we don’t deserve it).  But God has given us a way to make

It is to heaven.  It is the only way to heaven no matter what anyone might tell you otherwise.  
“Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for

God’s wrath remains on them” Read John 3:36. To deny Jesus in your life will one day lead to

God’s wrath and judgment.  That judgment will be final, and it won’t have appeals and won’t be reversed.  Read Matthew 25:41, 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9, and Revelation 20:11-15

 

Again, I don’t know about you.  I don’t know if you have met Jesus or not.  I know I have and

Meeting Him was the greatest treasure of my life.  It wasn’t until I met Him that I could have a personal relationship with Him.  Oh, I could go to church, and hang out with other so-called Christians, but it was not until I met Him that my life (inside me) changed.  I could not

Have that personal relationship with Jesus until I knew Him…and not just of Him.  Book knowledge, hearing sermons, etc., does not fulfill the meaning of a personal relationship.  It was not until I learned more and more about Him, what He did, what He is doing, and what He will do for

me and you that I could have a real relationship with Him.  When Jesus left this earth to go back to heaven He sent His Holy Spirit to be with us.  The Holy Spirit empowers us to be able to do

God’s will.  That is amazing!!!

 

“Now the Spirit clearly says that in the last times some will depart from the faith and pay

attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils” (1 Tim. 4:1). Whoa!!!                         

“Preach the word, be ready in season and out of season, reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all

patience and teaching. For the time will come when people will not endure sound doctrine, but they will gather to themselves teachers by their desires, having itching ears” (2 Tim. 4:2-3). So, here I had to stop and think some more.  The world has a mighty lot of

good and honest preachers/teachers who teach the uncompromising word of God,

but it has a lot of false teachers who have crept their way into the church and compromised,

taught whatever they want, they take God’s word out of context and tickle the congregation’s

ears  by telling them lies and what they want to hear to ease the truth of their sins and that

is leading people straight to hell for they are taking that pastor’s word over the word of God. 

All of this should make us want to know the truth about what is going on in America and elsewhere.  I am on God’s side and having said that I look at what is going on in politics today.  It is enough to make one physically sick.  My politics don’t matter, but God’s do.  I think that there are good and bad on both sides, but the wackos are out in full force and doing all they can to destroy America, our way of life, our homes, our marriage, our kids, our finances, what we believe, and they want everyone to hate everyone except for who they say is okay.  They have caused horrible race issues that had gotten so much better and why? To fuel their hatred, keep their power, and they will do anything to bring socialism to our nation.  That is hard to understand when their children also live on this earth. They hate Christians and Jews and are doing all they can to destroy both.  They don’t go after the churches that fall to their evil ways…just to the churches that do as God says to do.  They have agendas…take down the Republicans, lie about them, spy on them, go after them…and they do a lot of it through their social agenda, their environment junk, racism, calling everything white privilege, bringing millions of illegals into our country whom they know nothing about, not keeping crooks in jail and/or letting them right back out, bad judges who do their bidding, DA’s who do nothing, horrible fake and evil media who lie through their teeth every day, the crisis of the homeless, housing no one can afford, riots and looting all over the place, giving illegals more than our people, sending money to our enemies while our people starve and are hurting, they tear down our walls, defund our police, help the crook, and victimize the victim all over again.  I watched the news on different stations and they sure get together (it seems) each day to use the same wording on all their shows.  Disgusting.  You can’t trust the media for they lie for them over and over and over and over again.  If you say anything they come after you to destroy you. And, the woke asinine stuff going on with genders is enough to make one vomit.  God created two…male and female.  OH, you can identify as whatever, but you are still a male or female no matter what you add or cut off.  Then there are abortions.  Abortions are murder and no I will not say otherwise.  God creates and it is a man who destroys.  No one has the right to kill an unborn child, and you might be the keeper of your body, but God is the keeper of you.  If you don’t want to get pregnant stop having sex and especially outside of marriage.  Marriage, to God, is between a man and a woman.  Oh, you can choose to reject this and do your thing…and I am not your judge but God is.  Thank you, God, that I am not anyone’s judge.  You can’t con God, you can con others and do, but not God.  God will deal with all of our sins in His timing.  As for me, I chose to follow Jesus, confess my sins, repent of them, and ask Jesus into my life and heart…and walla…there He was/and is.   

 

They (the politicians, the false teachers, and down-right evil people) will use whatever terminology to convince professing Christians, and so many others into buying their bill of goods. Young people are especially being duped by politicians, evil people, and socialists. They will mention certain buzzwords without ever mentioning moral biblical issues. They lie so much that maybe they even believe their lies.  They do not want freedom of religion, nor do they want any freedom of speech.  They use leftist talking points dressed in Christian veneer. Our poor children and grandchildren are being duped just like when Hitler duped his people.  He said if you tell a lie long enough people will believe that lie.  He was right on that point.  Kids, don’t know better, but adults do.  We must protect our young from the evils of the devil and the devil uses all the wackos to get to our children.

What about the so-called groups they approve of? There are many of them who they say are good groups and people should defend them and approve because if you don’t then somehow you are the problem.  I don’t need to mention any of them…for you know them.  These groups infiltrate and when someone goes against any of them then they come after the people who don’t like them up to and including destroying their life and livelihood.  There are so many corrupt organizations out there.  Even the movies out there are now so corrupt that they are either filled with f-bombs and other words not good for people to hear and use, but what about the “woke” crap they are putting in the movies.  Can you turn on any station that doesn’t have gays, transgender, murder, rape, abuse, or identity junk in them?  I turned on a program yesterday that use to be good…I was amazed at what they are putting in them now.  Disgusting.  Even kid’s cartoons are sticking in the “woke” stuff now.  Better wake up!

Socialism has been concealed and obscured for many decades in our nation but has covertly and quietly advanced until now when many people including Christians are being seduced by it. There are now elected Congressmen (and many other politicians) in our government who were taught socialism at a young age in schools and universities both here and abroad. Who are these people?  An everyday person like us who is being deceived and taught that America is now bad, Christianity is bad, Judaism is bad, being straight is bad, and believing in the truth of God’s word is bad, and they are planting seeds of destruction against everything they don’t like to take us all down.  These progressives are doing everything to destroy our way of life and what is so bad is our kids were, and are, being fed the lies and believe them because they are being taught to believe the lies.

You can bet that they hated Trump for getting into office and stopping their agendas for a season.  They have done everything possible to take this man down because he stands against the evil of their ways.  They tell so many lies on national tv, in the media, and on social media that people think what they say is true because they don’t research anything but the evil side of anything.

Who Is George Soros?   I found this part and wanted to share it with you. Not sure who said it, but I couldn’t have said it better. Soros is a multi-billionaire hardcore socialist who has had connections with Russia and Hungary for many decades, since World War II. In recent times, he has contributed over $18 billion to the socialist/communist movement in America. His motivation is to bring down our democratic system and godly constitution by flooding the church with socialist propaganda. For example, he and his minions use amnesty for illegal immigrants as a hot-button issue to bring division to our nation. Soros is a globalist and wants a borderless socialist world where America is just one small province of a greater United Nations world super state. This man’s evil agenda needs to be fully exposed and resisted. Of course, any serious Christian would say that they want nothing to do with Soros, but what they don’t understand is that he uses people that we know and trust to subvert and co-opt us into his socialist agenda and movement. For this reason, many of our largest Christian institutions have been infiltrated with leftist propaganda.

Who follows these insane people?  Anyone who swallows their agenda and believes their lies.  People are falling hook, line, and sinker and they don’t even realize it.  Many, many churches don’t even get that they are preaching the devil’s message and not God’s.  They are so used to following the false teachers who infiltrated the churches that they don’t even search out the truth anymore.  They just go along with the lies. Little by little the evil came in, and they began allowing things God said never to allow.  God doesn’t change His view of any culture, race, or people.  Poison is in so many churches right now…that unless we get back to the truth…people will perish who even thought that they were doing and believing correctly.

The most effective lie is the one with the most truth in it. There’s an old Arab proverb that says, “Every liar tells the truth.” Well, at least they put a truth here or there, or they twist it (like the devil did in the garden) so that one doubts God.

Lastly, I want to say that God said all have sinned and fallen short.

That includes you and me.  Below are words in the dictionary that there can be made a

Case for corruption.  As you look over the list is there any one of those things you have done, thought about doing, or are doing at some point?  As I said, we all have sinned

And are liars if we say we have not or are not.  Every day we make choices as to what

We allow in our heads, what we do, where we go, how we treat others, and so on. 

Some you might not think should even be on this list, but maybe someone else is dealing with them.  What must we do to keep our country, our homes, our children, our

finances our marriage, our schools, our churches, and so on?  Only fight godly, right,

honest, with integrity, with morals, with justice, and always with the word of God.  This is a lot to think about.  I hope it makes you think.  I hope it makes people have some

action (godly…not as the world does, but as God would want us to do. 

Words that in some way or another have to do with corruption.  Look them over and

See if any of them apply to you.  If you do have issues that apply to you…think on

Them, and pray about them.  It is when we deal with the truth of our life and take

Godly action that we can change for the better.  Love to all!
