They think that they will be the winner

Local Commentary Now I'm talking about the rulers of the dark world.

Now I know that when we look at that statement and you are a Christian you have a natural instinct to think as you look around at what is going on around you that they are winning.

But let me say this although everywhere you look it seems that way but remember that a war has many battles so remember in the end God will be the winner and that is one thing that you can count on.

Let me ask you this question, have you ever thought for one minute or thought that we as Christians would be the most hated people in the world just behind the Jews. Now when you sit and think deep about that and you weigh all the thought options you have got to come to a conclusion that it must be because we have a relationship with the true God because most Christians are good people and want the very best for everyone and yes I know that some of them are not.

But always remember that there are a lot of people in a lot of other countries that want to dominate the entire world and make their god the dominate god in the world. If you remember God said the world hated him and his son before it hated us so that makes the teachings in the bible and his inspired word nothing but the real truth.

The way I see it, if we belong to him and have accepted his free gift then we are the winner hands down and nothing that we have to endure in our life ahead will ever change that. I see things most days when I'm out that are so ungodly that you have to wonder how they get by with doing that and it being so much against God's teachings. Just because it's not against our law don't mean that it's not against God's law and that is something that we all ought to think about.

There is a lot of things that people do and they think that no one is watching or will ever know what they did but remember one thing for sure God is watching and he for sure knows what you did so think about that before you do it. But also remember this he also said he is willing to forgive but you personally have to talk to him about that.

Have you ever noticed that when some organization wants to put a statue of Satan or some other religious symbol on some type on government property, there is hardly a peep out of anybody, but let someone say something about putting the ten commandments some where other than in a church and they start pouring out of the wood work telling you why it should not be allowed because it is so offensive. Sometime I think about the way things are getting in our society and I think, will one day soon could they make you take down some of the things that we have inside our church today because maybe if someone walks into the church and sees it and says it offends them will it have to come down.

I know that we have the thought that it will never happen but look around you and see just how many other things that we said would never happen but did and with people like they are today and so anti God I don't count anything out. As I look around I see the long held operation of the church changing at an alarming rate, so that is just another thing that makes me think that way. I know that with my mind set a lot of people would look at me and say, don't pay to much attention to this guy because on most things he is really out there and maybe with almost everyone I am but not with God so I just keep going.

Just remember this in almost everything there is winners and losers and sometime you lose just because it didn't line up just right for you on that one day or year.

But the biggest game that you will ever play is the game of eternity where your soul is on the line and the one thing that you don't do is make that decision to accept that free gift that will set you up for all eternity or you can just say I will do it tomorrow because I still got plenty of time because I'm still young so I will do it later.

If that is the way you think about it then whether you want it to be this way or not you have just played the game the way that Satan wants you play. Just remember this God has done everything that he can do even to sending his only son to the cross so that you can win this game of life if you want to.

But always remember this if you lose this game then it is on you because the winning is a sure thing and that is without you having to put anything into it other than a conversation with God. So God bless you and yours and my prayer is you will take that free gift and win the most important game that you will ever be in.
