Take the Blindfolds off....

You know, I was waiting at a stop light earlier this evening when I happened to notice why People aren't getting more and more fines and/or cirminal charges against them....There was a cop sitting at a red stop light, started to take off, slammed on the brakes, waited for the light to turn green, then waited 3-5 seconds, then proceeded to take off – all the time while using his cell phone.

You know – there's this moral/ethical concept being taught in our society, by our schools and by our government, that if you don't have anything nice to say, it's best not to. They combine that with practise what you teach. Then it gets taught out in this way: You can't tell someone they're doing something wrong if you go and do the same thing, you'd be a hypocrite.

So – what do we end up with? A society that needs more rules to regulate everything. More rules that won't get enforced. More police officers to enforce these rules and regulations. What will this accomplish? The honest people will become more and more honest – but while keeping their honesty, will lose their privacy, and moreso, will lose their freedoms.

You know, they say it's great to have a government, they put a system in place to protect you. And while they're protecting you, they're putting a big huge blinder over your eyes in the process. These blinders will stop you from seeing it is you getting imprisoned. It is you who are getting trapped.

My problem with this? We used to have a society that was based on morals. Some say our basic laws are based on Biblical morals. So if we're going to apply Biblical morals – why not follow one simple teaching from the Biblical book?

Ephesians 6:12 - For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

So, what do we do in our society? What does the government do to us? They teach us to be afraid as someone may kill you. Someone may steal from you. Someone may assault you. Someone may DO ALL THIS STUFF and MORE to you.

Why are you scared of your flesh dying? The Bible teaches the enemy. We wrestle against principalities. Who enforces our principles of daily living? Who talks and gossips these principals? Who are these powers? Who are the rulers of the darkness of this world? WHO?

And here, the eyes start to open, those blinders start to get removed........

Boston Marathon – probably soon to be called the Boston Massacre Marathon....A bombing takes place.

Who teaches about the principals? Who lays down the law? An article found on Telegraph.co.uk quotes Mr Barack Obama, as saying: “We will find out who did this and we will hold them accountable”.

What happens in Boston afterwards? Essentially......a Police State. And this is only going to spread. Well everyone – they're putting us all in one huge giant jail cell. How does it feel?

Why? Why oh WHY?! Why is this happening?

Again – it's simple. Your news reports so much conspiracy, talks and gossips about how the government should proceed, rather than just give you the cold plain facts.

The powers are simply ourselves. We have more power than you think, but rather than trust in ourselves, we trust in a government, put in power by ourselves. The outcome? The rulers come out to play. The government comes out and states the action they will take. Why doesn't the government take the action we tell them to follow?

In simple terms? We're selfish. Because our selfishness is so strong, to some people it comes across as unfriendly, to some it comes across as laziness, and to some it comes across as pure stupidity.

Take action people! Wake up! Why don't some people read their Bible, rather than take advice from someone who twists what it says and teaches you to follow what he says, when Jesus told you to follow what He says?

Wake up! WAKE UP!
