God’s Not Ok with It

A Letter to Pastors

Dear Pastors and Elders,

My faith built up over years of pursuing God and the persistent prompting of the Holy Spirit has compelled me to write this letter to Pastors and Church leaders. I am grateful for those that have answered the call to the ministry and realize how difficult it can be to minister to people. It is especially difficult during these last days however I must exhort you; I must challenge you and I fear there must be some criticism of where we are as a church and where our leaders have failed to warn their flocks appropriately. Some pastors and church leaders have challenged their flock well but many have not and I hope these words God has laid on my heart will stir something in you if you are not already stirred.

Nations including our own over the past century have come to a point where they have redefined what is evil as good and what is good is being called evil and bigotry. Today criminals go free and victims live in fear. Perversion is rampant, children are victimized, and infants sacrificed. Our leaders are trampling on moral ground and most churches are content to step back under the false pretense that they don’t want to seem political. These are moral issues and if they are not the jurisdiction of the church then what is?

It was 30 years ago I remember participating in the Hike for Life; many churches banded together across the country to oppose abortion. Now we no longer hike for life and when Roe vs Wade was overturned not many church celebrated it by name and at best watered it down by saying we are for all life and left it at that. When the Defense of Marriage act was over-turned merely a whimper could be heard from the church.

In the last few years our world has gone down the slippery slope from redefining marriage and the family, to redefining what a boy and a girl is to actively teaching grade schoolers how to masturbate and middle schoolers how to pleasure their homosexual partners. They are coming after children and confusing their gender and then giving them life shortening hormone treatments followed by genital mutilation surgery.

We have well surpassed the point where God is grieved to now being in the hands of an angry God. If you wonder just how angry or say God is merciful and would not get angry you might wan’t to look at Matthew 18. It says if you lead a child astray it would be better to have been slowly drowned as your organs burst and bones shatter in the depths of the sea. You may say, “Well I agree those things are wrong, but we still live in the freest, greatest nation in the world.”

To you pastors and church leaders, many of you have left your flock with this false sense of security. Many in your church believe that there is a private life and a public life. They think that I live my faith privately but in my public life I must meet its requirements. God does not look down from heaven, glance at his watch and say “Ok, it between 9 and 5, I’ll come back after 5pm and see what you are up to…” There is no such thing as a private and public life. In Acts 4 when told to not speak about Jesus, Peter said “Is it right to obey you and not God?” Doing as you are told will not stand at the judgement seat, and there are many things which Jesus is not Ok with.

If you are a teacher told to use LGBTQ curriculum and you fail to redact it God’s not Ok with it. If you are a super-intendent, principal or school secretary directed to order curriculum with enhanced sexual education, LGBTQ history or other perverted content; Jesus is not Ok with it. If you are a teacher instructed to direct students claiming a different gender to a counselor without informing their parents; Jesus is not Ok with it. Parents sending their children to such public schools are failing to follow the command in scripture “train up your children in the way they should go!” and pastors suggesting that such impressionable children and teenagers may be missionaries of the gospel are feeding them to wolves. Churches should instead support homeschooling resources or even add a local Christian school to their mission fund so it may become affordable rather than promote such nonsense.

If you are in the Business World or Government and are directed to change your pronouns or how you address someone; well the bible says that God made them male and female and to acknowledge anything else is to place them before God and break the first commandment, God is not Ok with it. If you are a police officer directed to keep the peace at a drag show with kids or Drag Queen reading time, or school board meeting defending pornographic literature; to protect those that should be arrested for perverting children, God is not Ok with it. If you are a Judge, DA, etc well no God is not Ok if you put man’s law before His. The list could go on but finally if you support politicians or parties that promote or support prochoice and abortion or transgender identity or same sex marriage; you are sinning and no He is not Ok with it.

This nation, this USA, isn’t as free and great as you may think, because if we were actually living by God’s principles refusing to participate in what goes against God’s principles our experience wouldn’t be so free nor would it feel so great. Our struggle is against these principalities and powers and if we are not standing firm where the battle rages then we are not standing at all. Pastors if you are not warning your church and calling them to stand you are leaving them in danger of God’s wrath and you have failed. You may say we only preach the gospel however the law is part of the gospel and without it at best the world wonders what they need to be saved from and at worst the church is merely a place for self-help motivational speaking.

Wake up church, pastors call your people to radical living and warn them of God’s wrath. Make straight the paths and fill in the valleys and blow down the mountains set up against God, His ways and His anointed.

A Messenger of Yeshua Hamashiach,

Migrant Caravan Reaction

To be honest I don’t know what to think about a caravan of thousands of people from Honduras and Guatemala. I’m wondering how something like that gets started, how they are getting resources to travel and how so many people are drawn together. When I think about 1909-1916 when my family came over to Ellis Island there was economic depression and the spread of communism and people heard that America was looking for immigrants to work in factories. Many sold everything to buy passage on ships and came over and I remember seeing pictures of poorly hand made American Flags because they were excited about becoming an American. Many others were turned away by the shipping companies due to sickness.  There was little to no government assistance so my great grandparents went to the church who housed them and helped them find employment.  My grandparents had to take immigration and naturalization classes and take an oath casting off all other allegiances. Leviticus 19:34 definitely calls us to treat sojourns as one of our own and Mal 3:5 says that God is against those that refuse to help immigrants. But the bible also says in Num 15:16 that there will be one law for everyone indicating that naturalization is also expected.

With this in mind there are things that bother me with the current state of immigration in the US. For example my parents live on the South Side of Chicago and many undocumented immigrants live by them. They are friendly people but my parents are bothered by the fact that many of them do not up keep their property and its actually causing damage to my parents property. Its not that they don’t have resources but many send their money over to Central America to maintain homes they own there or buy/maintain homes for their relatives. Further when my mother went to vote back in 2012 an undocumented immigrant came in to vote just yelling a candidates name and they rushed her over to a booth and helped her vote in Spanish without asking for any ID.  My niece saw the same thing in the November 2018 elections at her polling facility. 

My cousin is a Chicago police officer and he says several times a week he gets called in where an undocumented immigrant has wrecked cars and property while drunk, or gotten into drunken brawls and assaulted someone and what bothers him is that because Chicago is a sanctuary city they just let the guy right out the back of the police department and he is told to keep his mouth shut… They say that there is low crime rates related to immigrants but its hard to tell how true this is when so many sanctuary states aren’t filling out police reports and are just letting them go. When I saw pictures of the caravan I saw many flags from these other countries which seems to be in contrast to the Ellis Island pictures of people with hand made American Flags. They say it takes long to go about immigration legally, I’m not sure how true that is as I work with a guy from Mexico who just got his citizenship which took him 3 years after working here on a visa, I suppose it might be related to coming over with some kind of working skill set versus not.  But it would seem that there should be some expectations for immigrants to meet some requirements and make a shift in their allegiance.  It seems to me that one side is painting this as all rainbows and butterflys while the other-side seems to paint it as a march of terrorists and plague carriers; the truth is probably somewhere in between.
