Our best memories keep us in bondage to untruths. So much of what we were taught is incorrect and even just down right sinful!
I read a friends post about Helen Keller, all our life we were taught what a wonderful person she was. The recent information about her, shows that she was liberal with ungodly friends such as Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood.
You can do your own research on this if you need proof.
The purpose of this post is to expose the folly of placing human beings on pedestals.
I once learned that the story of "The Sound of Music" was completely fabricated except for the fact that the nun really did marry the captain. LOL! The children of the Van Trapp family told media in an interview, that the step mother wasn't anything like the story and all the events in the movie never happened. How is that for artistic license?
The same thing was true of the television series of "Little House on the Prairie." There was an Engles family, but most of the episodes never happened, with the exception of the first two beginning sagas.
We all enjoyed these stories and they even gave us warm fuzzy feelings in our youth, dreaming how life must have been, kept us in a starry eyed world of how we wish things could be for us, but were not. They took us out of the real world for a little while, giving us counterfeit hope for the future.
When our hope and faith is based in Hollywood productions and a fantasy world, at some point all of it will be dashed when we learn the truth. Hollywood is run by the occult. Most actors and actresses are there to promote their fame, while using demonic devices to accomplish this.
When our hope is in Christ, we need no fantasies to make us feel happy, we have something better and more noble in knowing the God of the Universe. Our life has a greater purpose than this life, there is no comparison with the joy that we possess when we have trusted Christ.
Those who need fantasy and false miracles to keep them happy, are at their weakest point. They have no power over whatever will come along and manipulate their emotions, they are at the mercy of the media.
We also lose all discernment when our mind is controlled by media. The way we process information will be tainted with the memories of the stories that dwell in our mind.
When we fill our mind with God's principles, we can be strong, no matter what in life is thrown at us.
We see more suicide, murder and immorality than ever before in our country and I believe it is because we have no hope except what makes us feel good for the moment.
Feelings are shallow and impotent in producing permanent joy deep within the soul. Only Christ can give us the peace and joy for a lifetime, even when we see no progress in personal desires or prosperity we glory in Christ.
Jeremiah 29:11 "“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
Daniel 2:44 "“And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.”
Zephaniah 3:17 "“The LORD your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”
Malachi 3:16 "“Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD listened and heard them; so a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the LORD and who meditate on His name.”
1 Corinthians 2:9 "“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
1 John 3:2 "“Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.”
In this world there is no one we can completely depend on because we are all fallen and have little to offer one another, except those who are in Christ, He is everything in us and our believing friends who have Him too, will be a comfort to us.
THE ONLY HOPE FOR ANYONE AND FOR THE WORLD IS CHRIST JESUS, everything else will burn up, it has no value for the believer.
