About this ebook

Many people have asked in every generation about what kind of God could allow innocent children to be slaughtered for no apparent reason, but the debased abuse of children has always dwelt in our midst and until this stops our evolution will never be complete. When we ask ourselves how evil can exist in our midst we need to be reminded that God has made no provision, or covenant with those, who have closed their hearts and minds to the truth of his prose. Perhaps our apathy and lack of belief in God is the sole reason that evil can be visited upon our innocent children?
God provided the solution for all of human-kinds sinful nature by sending the manifestation of divinity in Jesus Christ with his love and redemptive grace. The power of the Holy Spirit resides in all who invite it in. The promises of God are provided to all in his divinely inspired word. God cannot enter your consciousness without your consent and the presence of the spirit you must be desire to own.
“God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth.” 2 Thessalonians 2:12.
The world is operating in a bellicose moral miasma that is not serving us. We have been provided by Divine Providence the simple Rules and Guidelines about how to live our best life here on Earth, Today. There is no man. woman, religion or political ideology that is going to save us. When we allow our flesh to drive our lives we are failing not only ourselves, but future generations. When there are over Thirty Three Thousand Christian denominations operating in America and the World, we must ask ourselves where is the cohesiveness in Christ? Why have we allowed the message of Jesus Christ to be so bastardized by the masses? Perhaps we have to individually lift the veil of the deception fed to us by the collective to truly achieve a “peace that passes understanding.” Gods Rules are simple to understand and the Guidelines provided are easy to implement, how long are we going to wait?

    Acknowledgements and Dedication

    Thank you first to my Lord and Personal Savior Jesus Christ for the redemptive grace and Holy Spirit passion that you have endowed me with. Thank you to my patient husband and my free thinking, challenging children. You all make me want to be a better person. Thank you to my wonderful open hearted, knowledge seeking friends, you know who you are. Thank you to my Brothers and Sisters in Christ, many of whom I will never meet, please continue in your steadfast conviction in Yeshua and your passion for rising above the Double Standards. Thank you for your excellent example as you hold fast to your beliefs even under fear of persecution and death. Your complete trust and understanding of the divine wisdom that resides in your hearts and minds can never be expunged as you are a living witnesses of God’s redeeming grace. Those who have ‘freedom of religion" should all be so brave. Thank you to the United States of America for providing me with the Divinely inspired documents known as the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights that that allows me the liberty and freedom to share my thoughts and opinion with others.

    Fight the god fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art called, and has professed a good profession before many witnesses. 1 Timothy 6:12

    This book is dedicated to all children anywhere in the world today who are being used as a pawn in anyway. Please let us not continue to deceive ourselves, we ALL know that there are children suffering somewhere in the world at this moment and they might even be right where we are. If I could stand in you place I would. As would so many others. I cannot take away your suffering but I can be ever vigilant and aware of your plight and share it freely with others. While this will not change your situation immediately as I wish it would I will do what I can to awaken others to your plight. Your heart is pure and your soul will ascend to heaven. God knew you from the moment of your conception. His spirit has resided inside your heart, mind, body and soul, before you came in to fruition. Your conception and birth in itself is a miracle, please never forget that. I know that you have nothing to atone for and you might not always find comfort here on Earth as you will in heaven with God, please know that you are surrounded by his angels.

    So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34

    I believe that if my children were called to heaven by God, their words to the world and all of mankind would go something like this:

    Do not blame God for my loss, I now dwell in the whole glory of the universe. I would have loved to have witnessed this same glory here on the earth but it was not meant to be, because God needed me. Thank you for trying to make my life on Earth magical, but God is more than I was told. Here I shall never grow old. I hope that you will accept him someday too. I have a job here in heaven and so do you. I can never see you again until you accept Gods simple grace into your life too. It is so very easy, I think you would agree. God allows no evil to be dealt upon me. If you confess your sins and accept his love you can have God’s love and protection anew. There will never be fear of death for those who have a redeemed and contrite heart. So Mom, Dad, family, friends, please seek Gods will for your life before the day is through, because tomorrow could be the end of your life too. It will never happen following some man-made broken ideal, and it does not require hard work or sacrifice, just a contrite change of heart. This should be your desire to avoid an eternal fire.

    God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth. 2 Thessalonians 2:12.

    Do you want to continue on the path we have been on since man realized the power of fear? The fear of death, hell and the grave are certain if we do not return to the simple Rules and Guidelines provided by the Great Innovator of All, God.

    Evolution (definition, biology the natural or artificially induced process by which new and different organisms develop as a result of changes in genetic material) and Devolution (definition, the transfer of power from a central to a subordinate level or organization, particularly from a central government to regional or local governments) are only one letter apart and that is D. D Is for death and it is an axiom, (definition, self-evidently true, or universally accepted as being true) and we are all mortal beings and we will all die someday individually.

    "Be transformed by the renewing of you mind, that yea may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2

    Introduction:

    This is not an attempt from a proselyte (definition, a new convert to a religious faith or political doctrine) to convert you to my way of thinking. I am not some holier than thou religious person who thinks my way is the only way. In my humble opinion God is Good and Religion is Bad. Do I espouse Jesus? Absolutely. Jesus is the only flesh and blood man that has truly exhibited the qualities for which we should all strive to attain. This is not all that dissimilar to the masses of Grateful Dead followers, who preached their own form of religion that encompassed many of Jesus’ teachings in its philosophy, that was powerful for a time with the primary difference being that their philosophy was a flesh driven course in dysfunction and not a true "peace that passes understanding? I will let you decide.

    Has there ever existed in the known history man-kind any one person who has shaken the establishment of any society for so long and more vigorously than the Birth, Life and Death than that of Jesus Christ? Think about how many career politicians, who have sat and governed as statesman for their entire careers, have they achieved any measure of what Jesus so readily brought to fruition?

    There will always be a constant need for people to seek out comfort for their souls, but to whom one places their allegiance is the most important issue. The ideology that one embraces must be vetted individually, consistently it is not. Instead there exist masses of people who place their very souls in the hands of charlatans. Millions of people are mesmerized by the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Piers Morgan and countless other public figures. They count on them as their touchstones (definition, a standard by which something is judged) and since they do, we are in serious trouble. It seems to me that many are waiting on someone like Oprah to redeem someone from their works of the flesh (Lance Armstrong, Tom Cruise, etc.) but does she really harbor the ability to do this? Or have we chosen to take the easy way out by putting faith in these false idols instead of our self sought divine discernment?

    Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. Martin Luther King, Jr., leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement, (1929 – 1968).

    I don’t know that Oprah exhibits the qualities of someone I would like to place hope in. Sure she has given cars and prizes to her audiences, but when you have hundreds of millions of dollars that is a drop in the bucket. Sure she started a school in Africa, but what has she done to raise up all people, not just that of her own skin color in America? These are important questions and we must start asking them now. These questions have been eternally present and should always remain questions. We should constantly be seeking the truth, not just the easy quest for the double standard that meets only the needs of our flesh.

    Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people, from the deceitful and unjust man deliver me! Psalm 43:1

    This is written for those who see and know instinctively that what is taking place before our very eyes is wrong. Nothing more and nothing less. I don’t have the keys to the kingdom, nor would I want them. I want a world where
