July 2, 2020FROM THE PASTOR ….
The prophet Amos advised us in Chapter 5:14…” Seek good and not evil that you may live. Then truly will the Lord God of hosts be with you as you claim. Hate evil and love good, and let justice prevail….”.
The words challenge every godly person who seeks to be separated from the goats to a higher form of living, to be a chosen race, a holy nation a people set apart. The prophet was warning the people of God about their unfaithfulness. They, like us have strayed far from God’s commandments. Should we be surprised by the resulting chaos we find ourselves when we fail to agree on basic truths to pursue the “common good”?
I suspect in a decade or so from now, this generation will also be judged, our so called leaders of tomorrow” will face a cruel rebuke for the violence, destruction and dismiss of the culture of life, and embrace of the demonic. Such tactics today used by these ideological followers, are remarkably similar to the Taliban blowing up military installations and police barracks in the Middle East. Then the powerful regime drove in and set up the caliphate. Is this what kids want today. I think not! We can do better; we deserve better to learn from our mistakes in history than to erase it.
May God Bless America and those who sacrificed so much for others and liberties we enjoy so that the following generations could have a better life.
