The Frog is in the Pan

I am convinced that the eyes of people of America have been blinded because they have turned their backs on God and He is about to punish us in a way we have never seen in this country before.

 

We were duped in the election of our president, we did not see or even want to see the clues that this was a dangerous man who is capable of every lie and atrocity possible.

 

It doesn't take much discernment to see clues unless we simply do not want to see them.

When our eyes are focused on frivolity, pleasure and happiness, we will miss very important evidence, that could save us.

The more we negate, denigrate and mock God's ways the better chance we have of being fooled, even so masterfully that we cannot see until it is too late. The frog in the pan of water comes to mind in all of this.

 

The frogs have been in the pan, as long as they felt safe and comfortable they didn't notice that strange and insidious plans were occurring, each plan with clues that something just was not right, but since we didn't want to admit it, we went on our merry way, skipping, laughing and playing until the plan is so full blown that there is no way out.

It is possible that we are going to see another civil war on our land, this time it will be Islam against Americans. Islam has already promised they are coming for us, are we so prideful we think they can't do it and are just blowing smoke? Have we spoken things we didn't mean so often we think everyone speaks and does not act? We are a culture that speaks often without meaning what we say, having no intention of carrying out the words we profess, sadly I fear we believe Islam is doing the same thing.

Have we forgotten that Islam is energized by devils, they are not going to stop, they are not merely about words, they will do as they claim, given opportunity. And, our country is providing that opportunity through this influx of Muslim immigrants.

 

We who are believers do not fear what is coming, however, we see that the opportunity for the gospel to be preached may come to an end soon, the time is now to warn those who are fence sitters to make a choice, whether to remain stubborn toward God or to confess to Him their sinfulness and become born again by His Holy Spirit.

Remember, just saying you are a Christian does not make you saved. Pretending in church does not save anyone. We are born again by the Holy Spirit of God when we confess to Him our sinfulness and inability to save ourselves, placing our trust in His shed blood on our behalf, then He will change us into a new creation, never to turn back again.

 

1 Peter 1:3-8
3 "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various [c]trials,
7 so that the [d]proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which [e]is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
8 and though you have not seen Him, you love Him, and though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and [f]full of glory, 9 obtaining as the outcome of your faith the salvation of [g]your souls."

2 Corinthians 5:17 'Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come."

John 3:4-8
"4 Nicodemus *said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he?”
5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must be born [c]again.’
8 The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
