Worthless Worship As Well As Worthy Worship - Everyone Worships Individual Or Something

We are made for worship, together with nosotros volition worship something. But everything nosotros worship apart from God destroys us.

Having lived inwards Europe 8 years of my life, I've seen plenty to know Communism was/is an evil scheme of government. 

Some folks believe it would go if the leaders were genuine Marxists instead of the mafia-dictator types they've unremarkably been. I don't agree.

I mean value the scheme was/is destined to neglect because it's based on a denial of God. Any person, organization, or regime that refuses to worship God ends upwards worshiping foolishness together with corruption.

"The fool says inwards his heart, 'There is no God.' They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; at that topographic point is no 1 who does good." 
Psalm 14:1

Let's pray for our ain province every bit nosotros deed further from our Christian base of operations together with perilously about atheism (1 Timothy 2:1-3).

What's Written On Your Forehead?

Over 160,000 guide maintain signed a petition demanding a novel cite for Jacksonville Florida's Forrest High School because Nathan Forrest was a founder of the racist Ku Klux Klan. 

Similarly, erstwhile Communist countries guide maintain restored the names of streets in addition to buildings that the Russian Communists changed during their oppressive occupation. 

We desire to survive associated alongside names that ascendency award in addition to respect, non oppression or bigotry. And Christians are associated alongside the best Name of all.

When nosotros convey Christ, nosotros convey the name Christian which agency "Christ follower." 

Revelation 22:1-5 says those who serve Jesus volition ane 24-hour interval guide maintain His Name written on their foreheads. I think that's awesome! We demeanour the Name higher upwards all Names (Philippians 2:8), in addition to nosotros stand upwards for that Name wherever nosotros are. It is a wonderful award in addition to a serious responsibility.

Today in addition to every day, may nosotros remember: "whatever you lot do, whether inwards discussion or deed, create it all inwards the cite of the Lord Jesus, giving thank you lot to God the Father through him." Colossians 3:17

Only Christians Are Genuinely Free!

No nation, institution, or individual tin flame abandon God's laws without every bit good abandoning His goodness...

"Workers of the public unite; you lot bring null to lose but your chains!" 

This Marxist phrase changed history every bit Communists overthrew oppressive monarchies in addition to railroad train their godless governments. 

In truth, they exactly exchanged i laid of chains for another. 

"Why create the nations conspire in addition to the peoples plot inwards vain? The kings of the public rising upwardly in addition to the rulers band together against the Lord in addition to against his anointed, saying, 'Let us pause their chains in addition to throw off their shackles'” Psalm 2:1-3 

Ever since the Fall of man, at that topographic point has been a combat betwixt the True in addition to Living God in addition to man-made philosophies in addition to religions. We run into this inwards human history in addition to inwards electrical flow events. But on a smaller scale it happens inwards our ain hearts whenever nosotros ignore God's Biblical truths.

We cannot abandon God's laws without every bit good abandoning His goodness. 

Blessed are those who recognize truthful "chains." (Psalm 2).

My Friend Lived Inwards A Box

Any Atheistic philosophy is destined to neglect inwards the end...

A Canis familiaris raised inwards a minor box doesn’t know what it’s similar to run gratis as well as savor fresh air as well as sunshine. He is quite content until he learns life is to a greater extent than than a box.

That’s how my Hungarian friend Judit described growing upward nether Communism. 

Judit’s Russian teachers insisted she recite this phrase: “Lenin ever lived; Lenin lives; as well as Lenin volition alive forever.” Communism tries to drib dead along people inwards boxes yesteryear creating faux gods.

But Judit listened to Radio Free Europe as well as discovered life beyond her Communist box. When Communism fell, Judit too discovered Christ.

Communism failed. Lenin is dead. 

Judit amongst her fille as well as me inwards Budapest, Hungary

But God’s Word never fails.
And Christ is the exclusively One who has ever lived, Who lives now, as well as Who volition alive forever (Revelation 1:8).

Heaven as well as Blue Planet volition operate yesteryear away, merely my words volition never operate yesteryear away. Matthew 24:35

I asked a Bulgarian adult woman who'd grown upwards nether Communism, “What was the worst aspect of Communism?” 

She looked surprised that I didn't know in addition to said, “We were similar sheep to the slaughter. We'd never heard the Gospel."

My eyes welled amongst tears at her give-and-take movie of countless lambs herded to their deaths. 

I’ve never lived without a Gospel witness. I conduct maintain ever been complimentary to worship, complimentary to read the Bible, to remove heed Christian radio in addition to TV, to read Christian books in addition to magazines, to talk openly close the Lord.  

I conduct maintain a responsibleness to pray for those who haven't heard the Gospel in addition to for those Christians suffering persecution:

“Remember those inwards prison theatre equally if you lot were their immature human being prisoners, in addition to those who are mistreated equally if you lot yourselves were suffering.” Hebrews 13:3
