As I reflect on how we have become so Pagan in our Society, it is becoming more and more clear how we were duped into it.
Before Socialism had any footing in our country, everything was done by personally motivated individuals, churches and a small, limited Government at every level.
This worked for quite a while though the very system that the Constitution provided for was being 'worked' by greedy, power-hungry elected officials.
Over time, these corrupt officials turned the Government into a machine for manipulating the people, bilking the people and deceiving the people.
This happened because the elected officials were not connected to the same God who inspired the Constitution through our founding fathers.
Rather, these corrupt officials preferred the god, Socialism (modern day Baal), because he placed no moral constraints on them.
Furthermore the BigLie of Socialism - that it could provide for all the needs of the people fairly and equitably - was an obvious sales pitch.
The distancing of the corrupt politicians from God, created a vacuum. Local, motivated individuals and churches providing for the needy was a problem. They had no control over these people or their churches.
So, they created agencies and programs by which taxpayer money could be used to serve the needy. (Actually, this was just to gain votes.)
Hence, we see the rise of SocialWorkers out of the evil hearts of the corrupt officials and the agencies they created.
SocialWorkers were trained to use SecularHumanism techniques developed by SecularHumanist 'experts' for addressing the needs of the people they served. I.E. there was no mention of God or the person's need for a Relationship with Him.
Now, I am not implying that SocialWorkers are inherently Evil. I am simply pointing out that they do not have the right foundation for what they are doing. They are paid by a SecularHumanist Government to provide a very narrow set of services which does not provide a real solution to any problem.
The corrupt officials and the agencies and programs that they generated were built on the sand of Godless Socialism. So, we spend and spend and spend; and we intervene and intervene and intervene; and we experiment and experiment and experiment; and nothing improves.
Christ Jesus commanded all Believers to become Disciples and then go into all the world preaching the Gospel to every creature. - Joh 8:31 Mar 16:15
We are to be the SocialWorkers in this world. We are not sent to just help a person in their situation. We are sent to Deliver them from Captivity and bring them into the Kingdom of God.
The Kingdom of God has no lack. The NewBirth is to provide a new Life which is to be Eternal and Abundant. It is to provide for Forgiveness, Healing, Wealth, Hope, Joy, Peace and Love.
Practicing Christians? Where are they? They went to Church and let the SocialWorkers do their job. No one gets Saved, no one gets set Free. No one gets Healed. No one experiences Abundant Life. They are just 'managed' by the SocialWorkers and their programs.
Again, this article is not to indict the SocialWorkers. It is to indict us Christians who have been theoretical Christians and not practicing Christians.
SocialWorkers who do not do the work of Christ will have nothing to show for their lives in the judgment.
Christians who do not do the work of Christ will have nothing to show for their lives in the judgment.
We are to be Salt and Light. We are to be the hands, feet and voice of Christ Jesus through His indwelling HolySpirit.
You are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. - Mat 5:14
Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another. - Mar 9:50
For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. - Mat 13:15
So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue you out of my mouth.
Because you say, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and know not that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that you may be rich; and white raiment, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness do not appear; and anoint yours eyes with eyesalve, that you may see. - Rev 3:15-18
Remember therefore from where you are fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto you quickly, and will remove your Candlestick out of his place, except you repent. - Rev 2:5
