Even in the best-case
scenario, where all demands were met to change things, sinners would still
exist and horrible things would still happen. That’s the product of
sin, evil and fallen angels.
Considering the
recent events, could all this social uproar in the streets have a hidden
agenda? Are powerful groups manipulating people’s emotions?
Could the people
in the streets be used for bringing destruction of life and property and
be setting the stage for reparations?
Are the riots a means of extortion? A pay back for racism?
Reparations, is that
why the violent riots are mixed up with the peaceful riots? To bring
attention to so much destruction, the cost of rebuilding and holding the
country hostage until extortion is paid off?
If that’s it, let’s
call it what it is MONEY. Money won’t fix things. Extortion is a sin of
pride. Me, me, me I want, I want, I want.
Is every nation
(Great Briton, Germany, China, France, Israel, Japan, Russia, Egypt, America
etc.) going to pay extortion demands? Pay back money to every group of
people they conquered, displaced or did wrong to throughout history?
Giving everybody a
Million dollars will not stop someone’s personal SIN’s of Racism, Greed, Pride,
Lust, etc. Going to your grave without
salvation in Jesus as an unforgiven sinner is the same as going to hell.
Centuries of cruel
slavery and racial injustice against all slaves of the world throughout
history is a sin. Racism is not
just an American thing, sin a global thing.
The exception being
where those slaves were helped and treated with respect and benefited from
being in good homes. Some were treated well and cared for like family.
Why are so many
people avoiding the obvious problem with calling racism a sin? Why, because then
they would talk about God? That will be good and the only way to fix it.
Racism is
sin of the heart. Only God, the Savior can change a heart.
Sin is rampant in the human
condition, nobody is perfect. People are flawed at birth.
The Bible teaches in, Romans 3:23 New King James
Version (NKJV)
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the
glory of God,
Racism is in one
person or a group. Sometimes there’s a pattern, sometimes there is not.
Do you
think this short life is not fair? As soon as we’re born, we’re on the path to death. Life on
earth is not heaven. Life has joy and pain and then you die.
FAIR, fair would be
if Holy God wiped every sinner off the face of the earth. He did it once
because of a sin pandemic before the Great Flood, then sparing only Noah and
his family, eight people.
Throughout history,
worldwide, people are blessed beyond measure to breath, to be alive,
life is a gift.
The sin
of pride steers our thoughts and affections away from God’s blessings. Away from living humble lives
honoring Him.
We are blessed to have a Creator God that required someone
to die, to pay the penalty of our sins.
The life of His Son, Jesus,
is our substitute, the propitiation, the sacrifice for the sins of all the
people in the world.
But only those who have
faith to believe benefit from His death. Only believers are forgiven.
Rejecting Jesus and
wrapping yourself in money now won’t get you ‘fair’ on judgement day.
Jesus is here now to
receive and go with in life and into heaven eternal. Be a child of God and enjoy
all the riches of heaven. Obey God receive His Son, don’t offend Him.
John 14:6 New King James Version (NKJV)
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the
way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the
Father except through Me.
