An accident is something that happens unintentionally.
Accidents typically associated with bad results. However, sometimes good things happen accidentally.
But whether the results are good or bad they are random, lacking in purpose.
Evolutionists believe that the universe is an accident.
Atheists believe that life has no meaning - it just is.
Homeless people just exist.
Plants just grow and die as a matter of course.
Animals live by instinct.
Is simply existing and letting life run its course all there is?
Some people come up with their own vision for life. Any vision is better than none.
And so, they pursue their vision with purpose. Sometimes they pursue aggressively, sometime passively.
Many people get diverted from their vision by circumstances. In most cases they just change visions and keep moving toward it, though some get discouraged and give up.
One of my favorite sayings is:
If you don't know where you are going, you probably won't get there.
Socialistic Globalism represents a vision for man's future. It is a response to the lack of vision demonstrated by so many people.
→ homeless
→ drug addicts
→ welfare survivors
→ nursing home residents
→ kept children, grand-children
As we look at the long term prospects of socialism, we see a vision of limited life, lower expectations, more of a plant-like existence for man.
But the leaders of the SocialistGlobalist ideology are moving diligently to achieve their vision, their purpose. Every thing they do politically is On Purpose.
What vision are they replacing?
As we see from the above list of visionless classes of people there is none.
Has it always been that way? No.
What was the vision before?
It was a vision based on
→ a Creator
→ His Kingdom
→ Our place in His Kingdom.
The Light of the world, the Truth about our Creator came to earth to restore hopeless mankind to the place for which he was designed. His name is Jesus.
What did Jesus offer? Hope for a life lived On Purpose yielding a glorious future in relationship with our Creator.
The Gospel about that hope was preached by many and believed by many. As a result, the world was brought out of barbarism into order and prosperity.
What happened?
The prosperity brought by the Gospel began to be the end of things rather than just a benefit of relationship with our Creator.
Even Christians began to worship the creation more than their creator, failing to preach the Gospel. What is worse, they failed to teach their children.
Christians began to give place to the devil who moved in and supplanted Truth with lies.
The Christian vision failed and darkness began to take the place of Light. Success became the goal rather than relationship with the Holy Spirit.
Do Christians today even know what their vision is supposed to be?
Jesus told us His vision and He told us how to achieve it.
Winners pursue winning On Purpose.
Know you not that they which run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain. |
But unlike the one who runs a physical race, we who are In Christ run the race with Him who guarantees our victory.
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, |
It is time for Christians to return to their first love and do their first works.
→ Christ Jesus is their first love
→ preaching the Gospel is their first works.
If we begin to live life On Purpose - His purpose - we can enjoy fellowship with Him in the work and we can see lives changed from hopelessness to a bright future of love, joy, peace and prosperity In Christ Jesus.
