Corruption !

rick:
It seems like I’m forever agitated with the gross corruption in the federal government and local government here in Massachusetts. The media never has anything good to report and our roads are filled with pot holes.

Today I realized that it would be an honor and privilege to live in the lake of fire with Jesus as Lord and King who under His rulership one would prosper as they learn righteousness rather than being ripped off for doing the right thing in this corrupt system of pure B.S.

I even find people who claim to believe in God and His Son Christ don’t always treat each other right. Wow, imagine that.

I can understand how Christ can get anyone to hate the filth of this world. When Satan offered the Kingdoms of this world to Christ it must of been so easy for Jesus to reject Satan’s  offer.

I long for Jesus to set up His Kingdom and reign as King an destroy, ( all wickedness ) in all ( ( living entities ) then all the huggie huggie kissie kissie will actually be really real and hearth felt.  :)

It's all part of the plan - We're here to learn good and evil - Don't fight it

Yes Rick, this world is full of corruption from the top to the bottom. We must live out our lives in this world, but we need to "escape the pollutions of the world," (2 Peter 2:20) and be not partnered/friends with it.

James 4:4  Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

1John 2:15  Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
v. 16  For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vain glory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

But an encouraging passage I have found that I think shows how Christ and the elect will utterly and completely take charge of this world when Christ finally returns in power and glory.

Joel 2:1  Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain; let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of Jehovah cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
v. 2  a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, as the dawn spread upon the mountains; a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after them, even to the years of many generations.
v. 3  A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and none hath escaped them.
v. 4  The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so do they run.
v. 5  Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
v. 6  At their presence the peoples are in anguish; all faces are waxed pale.
v. 7  They run like mighty men; they climb the wall like men of war; and they march every one on his ways, and they break not their ranks.
v. 8  Neither doth one thrust another; they march every one in his path; and they burst through the weapons, and break not off their course.
v. 9  They leap upon the city; they run upon the wall; they climb up into the houses; they enter in at the windows like a thief.
v. 10  The earth quaketh before them; the heavens tremble; the sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
v. 11  And Jehovah uttereth His voice before His army; for His camp is very great; for He is strong that executeth His word; for the day of Jehovah is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

Is this in the near future? I hope so!

mercy, peace and love

Kat I love that Joel scripture, it says a lot about the elects future!! 😃

rick:
Hi Denis, I understand all this madness and corruption I see / experience is all part of Gods plan. I’m learning to despise all this injustice and deception from the powers that be.

I reject the wickedness throughout the entire world even that corruption I see in me which I have total contemp for.

True, we are here for an experience of good and evil, I reject the evil and discussing filth of this world and the god of this world.

Hi Kat.

Those scriptures you used are highly symbolic to me but from them I envision Christ the King of Kings with His elect destroying all wickedness by teaching the way of righteousness.

I also hope and pray for this day to arrive soon.  :)
