MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN BY BRINGING BACK THE CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE OF EARLY AMERICA: GEORGE WHITEFIELD
IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL FURTHER EXPLAIN THE TWO QUESTIONS WHICH COMPLETELY TURN THE APPLECART OF OUR FASTFOOD FREEWILL FRIENDS AND THEOLOGIAN UPSIDE DOWN. THESE QUESTIONS ARE AXIOMATIC QUESTIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, WHAT IS A SIMPLE AXIOMATIC QUESTION THAT ALL OF AMERICANS KNOW THE UNDENIABLE ANSWER TO? WHAT IS THAT QUESTION BUT WHEN WE ASK OUR FELLOW AMERICANS THE FOLLIWING QUESTION: ARE YOU A LIAR? THAT IS AN AXIOMATIC QUESTION THAT NONE OF AMERICANS CAN SAY NO TO, AS LONG AS WE ARE IN OUR RIGHT MIND. THE TWO QUESTIONS WHICH DESTROY OUR FASTFOOD FREEWILL FRIENDS AND THEOLOGIANS DOCTRINE OF SALVATION ARE:1. DO WE AS AMERICANS HAVE A FREEWILL TO ACCEPT OR REJECT JESUS OR IS OUR WILL BOUND IN SALVATION?2. WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF LAW AFTER WE ARE MADE A NEW CREATION WHEN WORKS CANCELS GRACE AND GRACE CANCELS WORKS? THIS QUESTIONS JUST DEMOLISHES THE FREEWILL DOCTRINE AND THE KING OF THE REFORMATION ADDRESSES THIS QUESTION IN HIS BOOK ENTITLED ‘ BONDAGE OF THE WILL' IN RESPONSE THE ERASMUS WHO WROTE THE BOOK ENTITLED ‘FREEDOM OF THE WILL' IN 1524. THE NATURE OF THE SPIRITUAL NEW CREATION IS TOTALLY PARADOXICAL IN NATURE. THE SPIRITUAL NEW CREATION KNOWS INNATELY HOW TO USE THE LAW AND DOES NOT NEED TO BE TAUGHT HOW TO USE THE FOR IT IS AS EASY FOR HIM AS IT IS FOR A BABY TO BREAST FEED. IN ROMANS 7:14 FORMER MR. MORALITY WRITES THAT THE LAW OF THE NEW CREATION IS SPIRITUAL AND THAT IS WHY THE NATURAL MAN CHRISTIAN IS CLUELESS OF THE TRUE FUNCTION OF THE LAW FOR THE NATURAL MAN CHRISTIAN IS NOT SPIRITUAL AND ONLY THE SPIRITUAL KNOW HOW TO INNATELY USE THE LAW. MARTIN LUTHER, WHO WAS KING OF THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE AMONGST THE REFORMERS WRITES: “Wherefore, the WORDS of the LAW are SPOKEN, NOT that they MIGHT ASSERT a. the POWER of the (FREE)WILL, but that they might ILLUMINATE the BLINDNESS of REASON, that it MIGHT SEE that its OWN LIGHT is NOTHING, and that the POWER of the WILL is nothing. "BY the LAW (saith Paul) is the KNOWLEDGE of sin," (Rom. iii. 20.): he does NOT SAY-is the ABOLITION of, or the ESCAPE from SIN. The WHOLE NATURE and DESIGN of the LAW is to GIVE KNOWLEDGE ONLY, and that of NOTHING ELSE ‘EXCEPT of sin, but NOT to DISCOVER or COMMUNICATE any POWER whatever. For KNOWLEDGE is NOT POWER, NOR does it COMMUNICATE POWER, but it TEACHES and SHOWS how GREAT the IMPOTENCY must there be, where there is NO POWER. And WHAT ELSE can the KNOWLEDGE of SIN BE, but the KNOWLEDGE of our EVIL and INFIRMITY? For he DOES NOT SAY-by the LAW comes the KNOWLEDGE of STRENGTHor of GOOD. The WHOLE that the LAW DOES, according to the testimony of Paul, is to MAKEKNOWN SIN. that man, by the WORDS of the LAW, is ADMONISHED and TAUGHT what he OUGHT to DO, ALSO NOT WHAT he CAN DO: that is, that he is BROUGHT to KNOW his SIN, but NOT to BELIEVE that HE HAS any STRENGTH in HIMSELF. Wherefore, FREIND Erasmus, as often as you THROW in my TEETH the Words of the LAW, so often I throw in yours that of Paul, "BY the LAW is the KNOWLEDGE of SIN,"-NOT of the POWER of the WILL. Heap together, therefore, out of the large Concordances all the IMPERATIVE WORDS, (COMMANDS) into one chaos, provided that, they be not WORDS of the PROMISE but of the REQUIREMENT of the LAW ONLY, and I will immediately declare, that by them is always shewn what men OUGHT to DO, not what THEY CAN do, or DO DO, And even common grammarians and EVERY LITTLE SCHOOL-BOY in the street knows, that by VERBS of the imperative mood, nothing else is signified than that which OUGHT to be DONE, and that, WHAT “IS” DONE or can be done, is expressed by verbs of the INDICATIVE mood. Thus, therefore, it comes to pass, that YOU THEOLOGIANS, are so SENSELESS and so many degrees BELOW EVEN SCHOOL-BOYS, that when you have CAUGHT HOLD of one IMPERATIVE verb you INFER an INDICATIVE sense, as though WHAT was COMMENDED were immediately and even necessarily DONE, or POSSIBLE to be DONE. But how many slips are there between the cup and the lip! So that, what you command to be done, and is therefore…
Knowledge is NOT Power. Knowledge creates possibility. One of which is POTENTIAL power. Awareness is power, and awareness comes from a state of BEING. I am not suggesting that knowledge is not important, it is. Yet knowledge without a state of Awareness will NOT be put into ACTION. Most in today's world have a tremendous amount of knowledge, but little to no Awareness (a.k.a. Being). I know this is a deep topic and we're not even going to scratch the surface in a quick TE...
Knowledge is NOT Power, What is... Planning, Organizing and Executing a Successful Life Strategy. Getting organized can be a daunting task, but it can also be the first step in creating the life of your dreams. The most important thing you need to do is get started, and the best way to do this is to create a small plan that includes key milestones and goals. Join the conversation with your host Michael Gebben as I explain that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to a successful life strategy. The key is to identify your strengths and weaknesses, create a plan that addresses the needs of your lifestyle, and execute it with discipline. Tune in!

Meal plans kinda make us dumber: "Just eat what's on the plan! Follow the plan and you'll be successful." It kinda reminds me of when I was a first year teacher and taught my kindergartners strict rules to follow for math but didn't teach problem solving skills. Oh yeah. Those. When there is something off the plan, do you know what to do? Learn what hunger signals your body is giving you, and then give yourself permission to eat.

Today's poem is Andrew Marvell's "To His Coy Mistress. In the midst of these sexual allegations and confessions we should as men and women take a step back and remember that words must serve as the basis of seduction. Not Power, Cars, Cash, Clothes and Casa. Men should use words to persuade a woman to sleep with them. The best purveyor of words are the poets. How, then, do great poets go about trying to get laid. Listen in.

In the 1975 bestselling book: Against Our Will, the feminist writer, Susan Brownmiller, asserted that “rape is about power, not sex.” Ever since, the conventional wisdom has been that rapists are misogynistic men seeking domination and power over women, not violent men seeking sex. However, there is a fundamental problem with Brownmiller’s bold assertion. In the ensuing 45 years, there has been no significant empirical research to support her claim. Yet, almost everyone repeats it. In examining eight years of FBI data on 250,000 rapes and other sexual assaults, one factor stands head-and-shoulders above the others: the age range of the victims. Herein lies the key to unlocking the mystery of the offender’s motivation. Social science has demonstrated a strong relationship between age and sexual attractiveness. Heterosexual men are sexually attracted to young women, while homosexual men are attracted to young men. The age preference explains why adult film stars, sex workers, exotic dancers as well as glamour models are often young, and why their earnings decline as they age. Studying the ages of victims, … The post To Rape is to Want Sex, Not Power appeared first on Quillette.
