Why Call Me Lord, Lord and Do Not The Things I Say? In Light of "Christians" Supporting (Willingly or Ignorantly) the American Left's Godless Agenda

Dear friends; in light of the many "professing Christians" who supported and voted for the godless, lawless, hyper-licentious, Marxist American Left's agenda fronted by Joe Biden; which couldn't be more polar opposite to sound Biblical teaching in RIGHTEOUSNESS and the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Character of Almighty God (Isa. 5:20); I want to challenge you to be sure that you truly know the Lord Jesus Christ as the Holy Scriptures teach in RIGHTEOUSNESS and in an ETERNAL saving biblical way presented by the ETERNAL Spirit of God (John 1:12; 3:3-7-21; 4:25; Acts 4:12; 16:28-31; Rom. 3:23; 6:23; 10:2-4; Eph. 2:1-9; Rev. 3:20; 22:11)! To others who profess the Jesus Christ as their ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Savior; who may have blindly just voted for such an evil godless agenda and demonic platform in full stupidity; my dear friends, wake up and get your head in the game! You are or may be ETERNALLY disconnected from the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS One and need to be rightly abiding in the ETERNAL Living One (Matt. 7:21-23; John 3:19-21; John 15:1-8; 2 Cor. 13:5; Rev. 3:14-22)! Below is one of the most sobering poems ever written for those of profess to know Christ in RIGHTEOUSNESS but deny Him in their works and lifestyle. May we all take heed and search our hearts in light of the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS mirror of Almighty and see if we are truly ETERNALLY in the faith or not!





Why call Me Lord, Lord and do not the things I say?

You call Me the Way and walk Me not!
You call Me the Life and live Me not!
You call Me Master and obey Me not!
You call Me Bread and eat Me not!
You call Me Truth and believe Me not!
You call Me Lord and serve Me not!
If I condemn you blame Me not.
Geoffrey O’Hara



Not every one that saith unto me Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many shall come to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? And in Thy name cast out devils? and in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I NEVER KNEW YOU; DEPART FROM ME YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.
(Matthew 7:21-23)

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
(Luke 6:46)
---
"If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.
(John 14:15)

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
(John 14:21)

Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
(John 14:23)

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Happy Thanksgiving from The Ignorant Fishermen Blog!


Beloved, Greetings in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ! Who is the TRUE source for ALL Heavenly blessings here on earth and in Heaven above (Eph. 1:3)!

As we celebrate this time of Thanksgiving we are very mindful of many things. We are thankful for our loved ones, a measure of health and a sound mind. We are thankful for the earthly blessings and liberties that we possess as Americans. We are thankful for those who have shed their blood on our nation's behalf which have preserved our freedoms and liberties. We are thankful for the vision and labor of our Founding Fathers which steadfast sought to provide its posterity with a nation and constitution that we may enjoy our unalienable rights as human beings. We are thankful to those who labor for the Lord on our behalf, who challenge us and encourage us in the ETERNAL truths and promises of Almighty God.

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you! (1 Thess. 5:18).

But most of all we are thankful for Almighty God our Father for so loving us that He sent His only begotten Son on our behalf (John 3:16-17), that we may be redeemed, forgiven, received, adopted and made righteous in the Person and work of Jesus Christ (Rom. 10:4, 1 Cor. 1:30).

We are truly thankful that we are still able to worship Almighty God in spirit and truth here in America and that we still have a measure of time left to get out His saving message to a dying and condemned world. We rejoice that Christ is coming again very soon and that this fallen world is NOT our home. We have a glorious future forevermore with our Savior and Lord in perfect RIGHTEOUSNESS in Almighty God's ETERNAL day (1 Cor. 2:9, Rev. 22:5).

May this Thanksgiving be a great blessing to you all! We indeed have much to be thankful for (Phil. 4:4)!

Beloved, The Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand!

What is TRUE THANKSGIVING? Today Are You Truly Thankful in RIGHTEOUSNESS?








One of the most impossible acts for an unregenerate individual to do is to thank Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS and since the majority of humanity rejects Almighty God's RIGHTEOUSNESS, how many billions of individuals are truly thankful to their ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS CREATOR for His mercy and goodness to each one of us (Psalm 14, Rom.1:18-32; 10:2-4; 1 John 4:10)?

Are you truly thankful in the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God?

It's easy to "praise" Almighty God and thank Him when everything seems to be going "our" way (Prov.14:.12). Apart from a saving relationship to Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS (John 3:16-17; 1 John 4:10).; we see this hypocrisy all the time expressed and redefined in the unthankful unregenerate hearts of fallen humanity. Some examples of this expressed unrighteous thanksgiving to God are found in the sports world, Hollywood, politics or in general life (Isa. 5:20). I don't doubt that many are truly "thankful" in their hearts and minds but not in RIGHTEOUSNESS and that is where the great deception lies (Prov. 14:12;  John 3:19-20; Eph. 2:1-2; Rev. 11:7-12).

True thanksgiving begins when one enters into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ in RIGHTEOUSNESS!

This Thanksgiving are you truly thankful to Almighty God in RIGHTEOUSNESS or have you established your own altered world along with your own altered world of thanksgiving?

True thanksgiving begins when one enters into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ in RIGHTEOUSNESS (John 1:12; 1 Cor. 1:28-30; 1 John 4:10). From then on true thanksgiving in RIGHTEOUSNESS will truly become a way of life and harmony with our ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS CREATOR until we are with Him FOREVERMORE (Psalm 107:1-2; Rom. 7:24-25; 2 Cor. 2:14; 9:15; Gal. 5:22-23; 1 Thes. 5:18)! It will be then in ETERNITY that PERFECT RIGHTEOUS THANKSGIVING will be expressed with ALL ETERNAL UNSPEAKABLE JOY (Rev. 22:1-5)!!

Give THANKS to the Lord for His mercy endures FOREVER!

What a great NEVER ENDING blessed ETERNAL hope with THANKSGIVING for the redeemed child of Almighty God to possess in such lawless and godless days!

The Kingdom of God is truly at hand!

Governor Bradford's First Thanksgiving Proclamation!














Governor Bradford of Massachusetts made this first Thanksgiving Proclamation three years after the Pilgrims settled at Plymouth:

"Inasmuch as the great Father has given us this year an abundant harvest of Indian corn, wheat, peas, beans, squashes, and garden vegetables, and has made the forests to abound with game and the sea with fish and clams, and inasmuch as He has protected us from the ravages of the savages, has spared us from pestilence and disease, has granted us freedom to worship God according to the dictates of our own conscience.

.
In everything give thanks; for this is the will of  God in Christ Jesus concerning you! 1 Thes. 5:18

Now I, your magistrate, do proclaim that all ye Pilgrims, with your wives and ye little ones, do gather at ye meeting house, on ye hill, between the hours of 9 and 12 in the daytime, on Thursday, November 29th, of the year of our Lord one thousand six hundred and twenty three and the third year since ye Pilgrims landed on ye Pilgrim Rock, there to listen to ye pastor and render thanksgiving to ye Almighty God for all His blessings."

William Bradford
Ye Governor of Ye Colony

George Washington's 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation



















W
hereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to "recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:"
. 
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3d day of October, A.D. 1789.

Go: Washington
