At that point.

 Have u ever heard that statement. At that point. Well this time I'm glad I am. This time I find myself asking and desiring the lord to place in me a pure heart,and a heart that loves My Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ more than anything in this World. No idolatry.  Merry Christmas to everyone and a happy New Year.

Minds that are darkened.

It is time once again to worship celebrate the birth a Jesus Christ. The Gospels teach a very powerful message about Elizabeth the mother of John the Baptist, and Mary the mother of Christ. I should say the Christ. How afraid the Shepherds were when the angel of the Lord came and appeared unto them, the story of all the host of angels in heaven praising God at the birth of the Savior. Yet this is not but just a stopping off point for me, because my main topic was about the noetic affect of sin on human life. Adam and Eve's sin darkened the spirit of Adam and Eve, and from then on every human being born. The Apostle Paul made a statement concerning the minds of pagan people. That is to say those who do not follow Christ those who he is not their lord. He said since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind otherwise known as a reprobate mind. In order to do what ought not be done oh, you can read that in the Book of Romans the first chapter and the 28th verse Paul told the Corinthians in 2nd Corinthians 4:4 that the God of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the Gospel all of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. My goodness are you spiritually blind tonight? Are you living a life bragging about it. Homosexuality adultery fornication, being a thief thinking it's alright to steal ,that the person the company you work for or whoever has plenty of money and O's you. Paul said in 2nd Corinthians that the God of this age oh, he's speaking of Satan, has blinded your eyes. Do you want your eyes to be blind do you want to walk through life even entertaining the thought that the way your thinking is so against the way of God, that it's got you spiritually blind and dead. I know God is all-knowing, I know that he knew from the beginning of time and ordained it as to who would be called who he would seek after and who would hear and accept him and follow him and make him their lord. But I cannot take the chance because I'm not all-knowing, and assume that your a follower a Christ. Think of this, Satan himself and his fallen angels all are very knowledgeable of the scripture and they actually know Jesus Christ my Lord. Yet so many millions reject Him. Those that are blinded by Satan..the god of this world, cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of God. Oh I pray for all of those. The almighty Lord knows who you are. I pray it is not too late for you, this is an urgent matter that cannot be delayed not another day not another year or month or even another second. Get on your knees Wherever You Are in private, and beg God for forgiveness please. For those that reject the gospel of Christ it's going to be a horrible horrible end. The Lord knows what you are in need of, this is not to glorify any of us but for the glory of the Almighty. The Lord is the Potter I Am The Clay, I don't care how healthy he has made me in my life or how wealthy, it all came from him everything good that ever occurred that has come to pass in life has come from above. I love you all may God forgive you and be with you forever and you with him.Amen.
