Where Is the Love?

"where is the love"
"What's wrong with the world...
people livin' like they aint go no mamas...
Father help us,
send some guidance from above...
it just aint the same...
new days are strange, is the world insane...
The truth is kept secret,
its swept under the rug,
if you never know truth then
you'll never know love..."
-Black Eyed Peas*
Today's GodThoughtsWired! comes to you compliments of my teenage daughters, Alison (15) and Jennifer (14). They are the one's that introduced me to the song, Where Is the Love, by the Black Eyed Peas.**
The youth of today are, perhaps, more in touch with the signs of the times in this "age of delusion" than many of our churches and preachers:

They ask, "Is the world insane?" My answer is, "Yeah, pretty much." However, it's not a surprise to Jesus. Along time ago He anticipated the days in which we live and declared,
A global rejection of God's truth is taking place right before our very eyes and the result? The Bible calls it "delusion." The Black Eyed Peas call it "insanity."
Amazing, isn't it? Rock-n-roll bands asking God to "send some guidance from above" not realizing that...
HE ALREADY HAS.
"Because they did not receive
the love of the truth so as to be saved.
For this reason I (God) will send
upon them a deluding influence
so that they will believe what is false..."2 Thessalonians 2:10-11

looking to the reward!

greater riches than the treasures of Egypt;
for he (Moses) was looking to the reward."Hebrews 11:26

God is a "rewarder of those who seek Him " (Hebrews 11:6). The theology of "rewards" is significant in the New Testament (see 1 Corinthians 3:11-15). "Misthos," translated, "reward," is found in nearly half (thirteen) of the books of the New Testament writings. Jesus first used this term in Matthew 5:12 by promising "great reward" in Heaven for those who are persecuted for His sake.
And then in the book of Revelation Jesus proclaims, "My reward is with Me" (Revelation 22:12) in reference to restituition for the works of His children done on earth.
Additionally, Paul makes it crystal clear that each Christian will be rewarded according to their individual labor for the Lord. "Now he who plants and he who waters are one; but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor" (1 Corinthians 3:8).
Therefore, do not throw
away your confidence,
which has great reward."-Hebrews 10:35, bold mine

"Be careful how you walk,
not as unwise men, but as wise."
Ephesians 5:15
not as unwise men, but as wise."
Ephesians 5:15
DID YOU KNOW...with all the ruckus about one misguided pastor threatening to burn Qur'ans on 9/11/10, the U.S. army didn't hesitate to burn Bibles in Afghanistan because they were upsetting to local Muslims? See for yourself by clicking on CNN World.
So, let me see if I've got this right, it's not ok to burn Qur'ans because it would be offensive to Muslims, however, it is ok to burn bibles so as not to offend Muslims? Yeah, I think I've got it right.
DID YOU KNOW...that here in Sodom & Gomo...I mean the San Francisco Bay Area, the decision was recently made to install condom machines in the San Francisco County Jail.
The San Francisco Chronicle notes, "Although sex among inmates is technically illegal, the sheriff's department decided to install the machines anyway." Sheriff Michael Hennessey acknowledges that the decision "may be controversial," but says the larger health-education message is important.
So let me see if I've got this right, we are helping to facilitate the "illegal activity" of prisoners who are in jail because of "illegal activity."*

DID YOU KNOW THAT...Rick Warren recently spoke at an ISNA conference? (The Islamic Society of North America) The ISNA is officially tied to the Muslim Brotherhood whose official motto is:
"Allah is our objective.
The Prophet(Mohommed) is our leader.
Qur'an is our law.
Jihad is our way.
Dying in the way of Allah
is our highest hope."
The Prophet(Mohommed) is our leader.
Qur'an is our law.
Jihad is our way.
Dying in the way of Allah
is our highest hope."
And the founder of the ISNA, Hassan Al-Banna, was a strong supporter of Adolph Hitler. Oh, back to Warren. At this conference he opened up by saying,"As-salamu Alaykum. I come to you today deeply humbled and honored by this invitation...I am not interested in interfaith dialogue, I am interested in interfaith projects."
Hmmm...Please click on NISA to see for yourself.
AND DID YOU KNOW THAT...At the inauguration of now President, Barak Obama, Warren addressed the deity to whom he was praying as, "The compassionate and merciful one?" On the surface it seems harmless enough until you realize that this is the invocation that starts every chapter of the Qur'an except one.
AND DID YOU KNOW THAT...In that same prayer Warren equated the Jesus of the Bible with the Jesus of the Qu'ran when he referred to Jesus as "Isa?"
AND DID YOU KNOW THAT...In that same prayer Warren skillfully avoided closing the prayer "in Jesus name?"
So...Did you know? Please click on PRESIDENTIAL PRAYER to see for yourself.

There's just something about that Name! 2
GodThoughtsWired! Thursday, November 4, 2010 |

there's just something
about that name!
about that name!
2
A couple weeks ago I wrote about a very exciting and poweful work that the Holy Spirit is doing in our local church. As a reminder:
"I challenged our congregation to...use the name of Jesus whenever they are referring to God. WHAT A DYNAMIC DIFFERENCE! We've begun a "There's Just Something About That Name" testimony time every Sunday morning after worship. Powerful! Will you join us? Do you have the courage? Seriously, in the end - every knee will bow and every mouth will confess the Lordship of Jesus anyway...Why not start now!"
Well, I'm THRILLED! to report that we are definitely on to something! This past Sunday's "Testimony Time" was SENSATIONAL!!!
EXAMPLE 1: We are no longer allowing people to take the name of the Lord in vain, without consequence!
"You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain."Exodus 20:7
When somebody uses the name of "Jesus Christ" or "Christ" or "God" in a blasphemous way, we simply reply, "Jesus has nothing to do with this," or "Jesus isn't responsible for this" or...you get the point, I hope?
EXAMPLE 2: Our youth pastor's wife is a Drama teacher at a local Junior College and is involved in an upcoming community play. When she realized that the name of Jesus was going to be used "innappropriately" she spoke up! Very sensitively and gently she simply said to the director, in front of the entire cast, "Do we really need to take God's name in vain here? Does it really add any value to the scene? My relationship with Jesus is the most important thing in life and, to be honest, I'm offended by this." And you know what? THEY TOOK IT OUT!
WAY TO GO NIKKI!
She wasn't being beligerent, or arrogant, or judgemental...She was just being honest, and she was taking the opportunity that God provided her...
To lift up the name of Jesus!
How 'bout you?
