BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS..But What of WARMONGERS?

With Wars and rumors of wars going on ever more frequently we are seeing an influx of discussion regarding something that is growing as a larger and larger threat every day… The possibility of NUCLEAR WAR

My faith and visions and yes, even my logic (not to mention the current events unfolding in world news) seem to point to the fact that we are at a cross roads in which the actions of a few WILL ultimately effect all things living upon the planet. Sadly, all markers seem to point more and more to this effect being based in Nuclear Conflict leading toward potential geneside .

The following is a Blog I wrote in April of 2006 regarding my feelings on warfare

In today’s world there are so many ways to believe. So many ideologies, religions, faiths and belief systems that it becomes a difficult puzzle indeed to select truth from error.

When God called me to take on the important work He made it quite clear that I would be up against many strong and powerful adversities. He said that today there are many who profess to speak truth and know God but their lives were filled with falsehood and dogmatic lies. God directed me to TITUS 1:15-16 which gives a good description regarding the current situation.

Reprobate Christianity is wide-spread and dogma has replaced truth. War has replaced peace.

People who say “God is love” speak it in vane because if you do mighty things for the Lord, but have not LOVE then your faith is mute… lacking in “fruit” (MATTHEW 7:15-20).

When you have not LOVE… you are in Hate.

Hatred always leads to the same result… WAR.

An Irish writer named Herbert Butler writes the following “Political Christianity is almost always also militarist Christianity and when statesman and ecclesiastics come to terms it always happens that, in return for certain privileges, the Church gives its blessing to the military forces of the state.”

A war pitted man against man cannot… I REPEAT, CANNOT…ever solve the struggle between Good and Evil. Such wars are an abomination to YHWH. Warmongers, no matter how religious, cannot be blessed and neither can their wars. Defense alone is the only reason to ever raise a weapon.

The only real battle cannot be fought on a physical battlefield anyway. YHWH’s only justifiable war is “spiritual in nature” and requires no guns or knives to fight it… Because its battlefield is actually IN YOU!

America is at war with terrorism. This sounds quite righteous, yet tell me this… who is a terrorist and where can we find them? Can any country fight something so vague? Why not declare a war on evil or maybe on anyone who does not profess truth?

By making a vague enemy any leader can declare any other religion or country as being subversive and declare war upon it… as Bush did when he used 9/11 (supposedly an event sponsored by an single Afghani faction) as a method of going after an unconnected nation (Iraq).

Do you not see the injustice of a nation that has shifted the news so as to make 9/11 somehow connected to a unrelated war?

America has talked a great deal about being a “free” nation, yet have they not instead used 9/11 to remove our freedoms and make each of us fearful of a hard to define enemy?

By creating paranoia, the population of the Daughter of Babylon have become fearful and are way too willing to give away God’s gift of FREEDOM for a false sense of SAFETY.

Tell me this, What is the goal of this WAR? When will we know if it has been won? What mission did Bush claim he accomplished? What exactly is this “New World Order” that both GWB and his Father profess to support?

People, God does not justify vague and unwinable wars… period!

Nor does God bless any nation that starts such a war… which is why America will soon see the results of its corporate greed and self-righteousness vividly demonstrated when man is allowed to bring great wrath to himself.

War is hate… no matter what your nation leads you to believe. They can call it a “Patriot Missile” or a “Freedom Atomic Bomb” but this is rhetoric and it’s still a destructive instrument by any name.

A famous book by a man named George Orwell is called “1984” and it speaks of a way to manipulate truth called “Doublespeak”. It speaks of a mythical “Big Brother” leader who changes words to imply righteousness where there is none. For example, the word “Freedom” has its meaning changed to mean “Slavery” so that its citizens become puppets while still maintaining a belief that they are “free(sic)”.

The Bible is clear regarding the only righteous war. It is not a war against flesh… but one against the “powers of darkness” who are not physical in nature.

Debate is fine… for it is written “come let us reason together”… but any nation or peoples that start a war is WRONG… 100%! I believe that anyone who seeks a physical war is in league not with My Father but with his enemy...Satan.

Is it not written, ”Blessed are the PEACEMAKERS for THEY shall be called SONS of GOD”?

What then shall we call the WARMONGERS?

Let it be stated here that I in no way advocate physical WAR (pitting one man against another) of any type and I can support no nation or peoples that use it as a tool (save for defense alone)… I am taught by My God to seek ONLY PEACE.

There is no righteous Jihad or Holy War save the War which God himself fights on our behalf against EVIL!

One last sad fact. In Rwanda in 1994 an attempted genocide took place. Former Anglican Desmond Tutu wrote the following regarding this atrocity; “Those who had turned against one another in this gory fashion espoused the same faith. Most were CHRISTIAN.”

If you call yourself a follower of Christ and advocate physical warfare then you know not my Father YHWH… For only the meek shall inherit the earth and they only make peace and live LOVE!

BE LOVE AND BE LOVED!
