Redeeming the Time Wisely For The Lord!

















In light of our hour, those of us who profess a genuine saving faith in Jesus Christ ought to be looking for His soon coming (1 Thess. 4:13-18, 1 John 3:1-4) and be redeeming the time, for the days are indeed evil (Eph. 5:16; 6:13). That REALITY alone should be our great desire for the advancement of the “great commission”  of the Gospel (good news), its outworking and fulfillment (Acts 1:8; 2 Cor. 5:18-20; 2 Tim. 1:9).

The failing social and moral issues of the day have apparently consumed and caused many Bible Believers and Evangelicals to stumble and fall.

The failing social and moral issues of our day have apparently consumed and caused many Bible Believers and Evangelicals to stumble and fall. These seem to have taken their eyes off of their ETERNAL position (Eph. 2:6, Col. 3:1-4), the ETERNAL Savior of their souls and the very hour in which we are living. These individuals are dear, sincere people who just need to redirect their course and current position to get their holy calling and priorities right (1 Cor. 2:2; Gal. 6:14). We should not get discouraged, however, if many do not, for the Lord Himself proclaimed a great spiritual decline in these Last Days (Matt. 24, Rev. 3:14-22).

In these Last Days may our hearts be tuned and fully yielding to the Holy Spirit's leading as we seek to do our part for “God and country” while never confusing or compromising the given order. May we be seeking ONLY God’s highest and best for all Americans and the world, which is having a saving relationship to Jesus Christ and the reality of sound Biblical teaching of Holy Scripture (2 Cor. 9:13; Phil. 3:12; 1 Tim. 6:2; 2 Tim. 4:15-16).

In these Last Days may we be doing our part for “God and country” while never confusing or compromising the given order.

Wherever we may find ourselves, may our political mantra be: “Servants of Christ FIRST, and a Conservative SECOND.” When we enjoy our healthy standing in Christ and are standing in Him rightly, we will inevitably be a right healthy conservative in everything we do and say (1 Cor. 6:20; 7:31; Col. 1:28; 3:16-17)!

Beloved, The Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand!
