Why is it that with all of our history we learn little is anything from history?
CONSIDER OUR NATION!
.
The people go from CHAINS to spiritual faith; from SPIRITUAL FAITH to courage; from COURAGE to liberty; from LIBERTY to abundance; from ABUNDANCE to selfishness; from SELFISHNESS to complacency(self satisfaction); from COMPLACENCY to apathy (lack of interest); from APATHY to despondency; from DESPONDENCY back again to BONDAGE.
Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people (Proverbs 14:34).
CONSIDER YOURSELF!

Solomon, King of Israel, sums up the world and human affairs when Almighty God is left out: "A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it" (Eccl 3:1-11).
People are held accountable to Almighty God for how they act and how they react as they travel through time. Our attempts to rightly outwork the realities found in time without GOD’S PERSON and WORD leave us BOUND and BOTHERED, gaining little if any profit. So it is with mankind’s profit and lose account. To every plus (being born, getting, etc.) there si an equal and opposite minus (dying, losing, etc.); so the sum total is of no profit, only loss.
CONSIDER THE PROFIT AND THE LOSS!
CONSIDER THE PROFIT AND THE LOSS!
The Lord Jesus said, “For what shall it PROFIT a man, if he shall GAIN the WHOLE WORLD, and LOSE his own SOUL? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels” (Mark 36-38).

“For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; GOD HIMSELF that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. LOOK UNTO ME, and BE YE SAVED, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else” (Isaiah 45:18, 22). “For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED” (John 3:17). “SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES; for in them ye think ye have ETERNAL LIFE: and they are they which testify of ME” (John 5:39).
The Lord Jesus said, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have LIFE, and that they might have it more ABUNDENTLY. And this is LIFE ETERNAL, that they might KNOW thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent” (John 10:10, 17:3).

> I am the LORD; and there is none else.
Actually there is. There have been about 4,000 or so gods that mankind has worshipped over the last 10,000 years or so. Many of them much older than your god. In fact the Egyptians were worshipping a creator god some 4,000 years before your own.
Weird isn't it? Your god makes the universe, makes people, stays really quiet for awhile and then reveals itself to an obscure desert tribe ignoring the majority of humanity for thousands of years after. No Jesus for the Americas, Asia or anywhere else your god wasn't already worshipped.
I wonder why that is?
My friend, My God owns and consumes you.. for you cannot stop lashing out and it is quite pathetic for all to see. If "My God" does not exist then why do you hate Him so and are at war with Him? Have you made your life's cause and purpose to slander His Name? Why also are you an agitator and a slander towards Christians? Your christian bigotry and hate is on full display. Should we follow your example of vindictive rage and loathing... where will that lead us in the end. Even your blog has nothing to offer anyone but hate and rage... You are lashing out because you are a prisoner of your subjective relativistic thinking and are truly hurting and have zero peace of heart. The God of Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Paul, John and myself can set you free if you allow Him to (Matt. 11:28-30,John 8:32,36).
Heed my warning my friend you are not messing with us but with Almighty God. This day He will show you Who He is in a very special way that you may know with out a doubt who you are slandering (John 3:16-17). You're of your father my friend. Beware before it is too late (John 8:44, Acts 10:38).
From today on we will not be receiving your reply's since they are nothing but heckling and slander.
Our sincere prayer for you is that you may you seek Almighty God's mercy and saving grace for your life (Eph. 2:1-10). May it be
