Each person has the free will to decide if they will accept THE LORD *GOD*, or not! Though there are plenty of indications of HIS existence, and even more voices reiterating it, a great many are not convinced, cannot hear, and/or, will not open their hearts! Such is the way of the world---
In this present hour, the increasing cry denying THE LORD *GOD* is loud, as these DEMAND that *GOD* be shown, or proven, and they are angry at the idea that *GOD* would allow all the problems the world has, and eternal damnation for those who refuse HIM...
WE have created the mess on this Earth with our errs, sins, and pride! WE have embraced the opposite of what would lead us aright, and what would see us living as if in paradise! WE have the bad attitudes, the hate, the animosity, the intolerance, and all which makes for dissension, and discord! WE ARE THE PROBLEMS WE FACE, and EXPERIENCE! WHY can't anyone acknowledge this? *GOD* IS NOT a genie there to fix what we have done wrong; HE COULD, but that is NOT the point of our time on Earth; instead, it IS about us GROWING into whom HE CREATED us to be, and leaving behind the wrong-mindedness brought on by evil, and it's influences, which WE SO readily adapt to OVER what is RIGHT, JUST, and GOOD! WE ARE our own worst enemies, and HAVE made time a challenge in this short trek through this troubled, dangerous valley!!!
Those who DO believe in, and have accepted THE LORD *GOD* share what we know, and what we learn; that is about all we can do, BESIDES ACTUALLY existing IN HIS WILL that others might NOTICE, and be inspired, yet, we have no control over the hard-headed, or hard-hearted, though we must still, LOVE them, PRAY for them, have compassion for them, and tolerate them, as we move forward IN HIS NAME!!!
*GOD* IS PRESENT, and CAN be seen in various ways, and means, HOWEVER, ONLY those who LOVE HIM, and ARE OF HIM, can attest to this, albeit, HE IS VISIBLE in millions of ways TO EVERYONE on this planet! HE HAS TOLD us that of PROMISES, and CURSES, each of which correlates TO our acceptance, or refusal OF HIM! WE stoke HIS anger often, and yah, HIS WRATH IS SHOWN all over the world, in countless ways, WHEN WE are corrupt, degenerate, and otherwise existing as wrong as we want to! HE WARNS us through plagues, diseases, famine, earthquakes, storms, natural disasters, lack of water, and food, conflict, and other means THAT some WILL be AWAKENED TO HIM, and RECEIVE HIM, heart, mind, body, and spirit! HE is NOT wrong in doing so, WE ARE off course, and HIS LOVE brings us back, IF we repent, and correct our ways!!!
STOP BLAMING HIM for what WE DO! It is the simplest cop-out ever devised, and is absolutely, ludicrous! And funny thing, those who don't believe, blame HIM the most, which is like a juxtaposition, eh???
As the naysayers are constant in their quest to stop believers, believers are constant in their quest to SERVE *GOD*, and remain steadfast in doing so! Perhaps a few might fall away, or lose their FAITH, but for the most part, those whom have TRUE FAITH IN THE LORD, and LOVE HIM, WILL do so until the bitter end...
Free will leads us according to our perception, inclination, and SHOWS the TRUTH of our hearts! We will either do what is right, just, or good, or not! We will either use this time to make something useful of this time, or waste it on satiating the being...
People HAVE the option to embrace *GOD*, and eternal LIFE, or not! FAITH was put into practice FOR TRUTH of the heart! In other words, those whom believe void of proof SHOW whom IS OF HIM! Those whom reject, and deny are shown to be of the world, which HAS consequences according TO HIS WILL! It doesn't make much sense to outright deny HIM IF there has been NO study, or gathering of knowledge, understanding, or what have you, as WHEN HE RETURNS, there will be NO opportunity to say you got it wrong, as you spend eternity suffering INSTEAD of in PEACE, and BOUNTY, yet, billions, upon billions, since way back when HAVE made such a decision without digging deeper...
There is some interesting information about this matter, which I will share along the way, but here is a snippet:
Philosopher J. S. Mill (not a Christian) summed up where we have now come to: “It is self-evident that only Mind can create mind.” The only rational and reasonable conclusion is that an eternal Creator is the one who is responsible for reality as we know it. Or to put it in a logical set of statements:
• Something exists.
• You do not get something from nothing.
• Therefore a necessary and eternal “something” exists.
• The only two options are an eternal universe and an eternal Creator.
• Science and philosophy have disproven the concept of an eternal universe.
• Therefore, an eternal Creator exists.
Former atheist Lee Strobel, who arrived at this end result many years ago, has commented, “Essentially, I realized that to stay an atheist, I would have to believe that nothing produces everything; non-life produces life; randomness produces fine-tuning; chaos produces information; unconsciousness produces consciousness; and non-reason produces reason. Those leaps of faith were simply too big for me to take, especially in light of the affirmative case for God’s existence … In other words, in my assessment the Christian worldview accounted for the totality of the evidence much better than the atheistic worldview.”

Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. ISAIAH 43:19...
SLOW down, take it EASY, read THE WORD with intent, and diligence; give it time to meld into the being; it IS imperative TO allow it to seep into the heart, the spirit, the being!!!

Psalms 138 (A Psalm of David)
1/ I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
2/ I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
3/ In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
4/ All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.
5/ Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
6/ Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
7/ Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
8/ The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me:
thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands... AMEN!!!

One CANNOT earn GRACE, it is HIS own ESSENCE; a gift, still, IF one claims to be IN HIS GRACE, we ARE to, or, OUGHT to, be reflections of that GRACE! 2 CORINTHIANS 6:1, tells us not to take HIS GRACE in vain! This means, living in LOVE, morality, ethics, virtue, righteousness, and, spiritual improvement, TOWARDS, spiritual maturity, WHILE, visibly BEING as LIGHTS, beaming OF *GOD*, beckoning the world, TO THE LIGHT! Righteousness MEANS, conduct in conformity with *GOD'S* WILL, and, "Be HOLY because I AM HOLY!", therefore, indicating that knowledge, wisdom, and, effort, DO, apply TO the righteous!!! NEVER forget, we were grafted in, and, if we do not bear fruit, as a dead branch, we will be pruned out, just as were, the natural branches!!!
We are not saved by works, instead, works PROVE HIM in us: they identify HIS own...

IF I claim ONENESS with *GOD*, through CHRIST JESUS, I am DEAD TO THE WORLD, THUS, LIVING as HIM, which is, hopefully, witnessed IN, and, THROUGH, my every thought, action, and, reaction; MEANING, I am, THROUGH CONSCIOUS application OF THE WORD, HIS COMMANDS, HIS WILL, REFLECTING righteousness, not, merely, FAITH! I become, the TRULY FRUITFUL branch, of THE VINE, the TRUE member of THE BODY/THE CHURCH, CHRIST JESUS, and, TESTIFY, then, GLORIFY, BOLDLY, BY my thoughts, actions, and, reactions, HIS name, because, HE IS WORTHY, and, IN HIS LOVE, has SHOWN me, how I OUGHT to exist, to which, I eagerly, adapt, and, comply!!!
MATTHEW 5:48...
So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect
1 PETER 1:14-16...
14/ Like obedient children, do not act in compliance with the desires of your former ignorance
15/ but, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in every aspect of your conduct,
16/ for it is written, "Be holy because I (am) holy."
ROMANS 12:2...
Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.

Conduct, in conformity to *GOD'S* WILL, marks the righteous; it is NOT because of guilt, or, ancient Laws, but, because of LOVE; LOVE for *GOD*, self, then, others! CHRIST JESUS gave us Commandments to live by, of which, the first is to LOVE *GOD*, with all of your mind, heart, and, soul; the second is, to LOVE one another!
LOVE COMPELS us to LIVE IN HIM, through conduct which conforms to *GOD*; in other words, morality, ethics, doing good, and, being good, and, ever striving to improve the spirit! It is about REFLECTING THE TRUTH, for ALL to bear witness to, FOR, and, TO HIS GLORY, RADIANTLY SHINING OF HIS POWER, GRACE, and, MERCIES!!!
It IS ALL ABOUT LOVE, baby, all about LOVE!!!
MATTHEW 4: 17...From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
JOHN 14:15..."If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

NOTE: I do not intend to preach, rather to reach; to stir up, awaken, to inspire, and, bring forth, in discussion, that which is, perhaps, dormantly existing in the heart of hearts, thus, little, or, no, sugar coatings, just THE WORD of *GOD*, the TRUTH, along with some of my thoughts. And truth is, I am reminding myself always, as I practice these reminders, in the best of my abilities, and capacities, while RELYING on THE LORD to lead me on that narrow PATH---> MATTHEW 7: 14: "For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it...

MALACHI 2:7-8...
7/ "For the lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge, and from his mouth men should seek instruction—because he is the messenger of the LORD Almighty.
8/ But you have turned from the way and by your teaching have caused many to stumble; you have violated the covenant with Levi," says the LORD Almighty...

The messengers of PEACE, in the heart of LOVE, have been handpicked by the Creator *GOD*, from the ranks of life, for HE knows the effectiveness of using those who have survived the worst, and now understand the best. In this way, the warriors of PEACE & LOVE are empowered, with strength, fortitude, longwithstanding, therefore, enabled to create ripples in the minds, & lives of mankind...
No GREATER LOVE exists:

as CHRIST JESUS died for me, I, also die in HIM, and, ONLY IN HIM, do I find LIFE...
