We’ve all seen the movies where the good guys are surrounded by the enemy and somehow, they make it through. That is not always the case, as can be seen by viewing the great expanse of Arlington Cemetary, reading the names on the Vietnam memorial, or recounting the great losses of other wars and man-made disasters.

We are surrounded and most Christians have no idea how precarious their position is in this world. The geo-political arena is ablaze. Churches are asleep and their members are dying.  Our food system is polluted and unclean because of greed. The earth is convulsing from the poisons we have flushed into its veins. The heavens are littered with the refuse of our misguided attempts to become gods. Our DNA is being stirred into a boiling cauldron of abomination as we mingle human with animal to reweave the fabric of our creation.

Yeshua was very explicite in His warnings and instructions and we have hammered those to fit placid doctrines that release us from any and all responsibilty.

Remember, the Bible says very few will make it. That’s a strong warning. Are you sure you are okay where you are or should you be making changes in your Christian walk? Are you sure the Lord doesn’t mind you eating genetically altered food, shooting vaccines made from pigs into your veins and shrugging your shoulders as the world crumbles around you?

Shouldn’t you be doing something or does your church’s doctrine forbid works of any kind?

All I did was ask the policeman if I could hold his gun. The next thing I know, I’m wearing handcuffs.

Some people need to learn how to share!

Consider this, your enemy may not be who you think it is.

Someone else that you have not considered may be after you.

(Just doing my part to help you overcome your paranoia)

You’re laughing at me. I can hear your face wrinkling.

Remember, they laughed at Mercutio too.

You say I am unsociable like it’s a bad thing.

Analyze the word and your own life.

Report back in ten years if you can find me, if it still matters to you.

The label is often sticky on both sides, isn’t it?
