​WHAT SHADOWS THE IMAGE OF THE FORCE OF NATURE?
 

 
            God refers to His people, the nation of Israel in the Old Testament as “stiff-neck people” (Exodus 32:9 & 34:9). He says this because, His people were stubborn in wanting to live their lives the way they wanted to regardless of any rules or laws or proper standard of behavior which the Lord desired to establish within their lifestyles. When we also take into consideration the type or people Jesus saw while He was on Earth- “sheep without a shepherd” (Mathew 9:36) we begin to realize that at a whole; we as a people of God are a gathering membership of lost souls. A nature of rebellious attitude towards authority and/or disobedience of living a lifestyle with laws and rules regulated by a supreme being.
            Okay, I will be transparent. I am a man who is all for anarchy. At a very young, teenage period of my life, I saw myself as the black sheep within my family taking pride in being a prodigal son (which today I see the wisdom of not glorifying such a lifestyle). So, the mentality of “I want the freedom to do what I want to do” runs very deep within my character. Nevertheless, the desire for me to see myself righteous before my Lord runs a deeper path. The path of The Darkside of the Force of Nature is history and science without faith. We believe only what we can physically see and prove with our senses and/or our conscience. Faith is the evidence of things which we cannot see (Hebrew 11:1). The mentality of the Darkside is the exact opposite of this definition.
            There is a level of respect when it comes to us as humans who addresses the Lord (our creator) Regardless of our personal beliefs or opinions, feelings, attitude, justification, doubts, worries & fears; God is God, and He is supreme and the creator as a being. If He sees fit to give us rules, laws, and commandments for us to live by, we as humans are bound buy a level of respect to obey this premise; no more than what we as parents would expect as household respect from our children. Evil is not the dominant outcome. The agreement to follow this disobedient will is what causes the condemnation of sin. Throughout generations such a mentality among humans have limited the spirit of faith to grow and prosper to bring a positive harvest.
            “Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.”- Isaiah 59:1&2
The beliefs which support the philosophy of the Dark Force leads to a solid end of history or science base on a level of acceptance of faith. It is a belief system base on facts and principles outside the concepts of spiritual, logical, principles supported by faith.
            It’s important to realize the moral I am illustrating. The pathway to the Darkside of the Force of Nature is a mentality. One who has such a thought process is not in themselves sinful. The fruit of sin has not yet developed based on the attitude of rebellious. The nature of sin is explained in the scriptures.
            “When tempted, no one should say, ‘God is tempting me.’ For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempting when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown gives birth to death.”
                                                                                                                                    James 1:13-15
Although I’m not going to write the scripture out within this article, Romans 7:1-20 also gives us a clear picture of the nature of sin. It will do you good to read this scripture.
Our lack of respect to try to live a lifestyle based on rules and regulations is the path that causes us to walk away from God’s Hands and establish an unrighteous lifestyle. We are not condemned by the nature of wickedness. We are bound by our weakness of our flesh to establish a life against God when we follow a pathway against God’s standards or nature or will. God does not punish us because we sin against Him. God establish the rules and regulations whereby that forced which grows against Him is judged and then convicted. Our freewill decides which side of that conviction we live our lifestyles.

​WHO ARE WE TO BE WORTHY?

 
            Where does the desire to do good come from? A more impactful perspective to this question is what does it mean to know what is good in order to be able to perform the task… or develop the correct attitude in life, or be willing to cause the proper actions to happen? So many of us make mistakes. For examples- the error of conceiving love when one is not experiencing a healthy relationship, the sickness caused upon someone because one fails to understand good moral ethics, the sadness of lost while all intensions were good. One cannot be saved because one sincerely wants to do the right thing. This brings a level of sorrow to the dawn of our creation.
            “It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of everyone; the living should take this to heart. – Ecclesiastes 7:2
This brings another matter to consider when experiencing the course of salvation. One should “care” enough to want to be “good”. What light does this statement bring? We are not the creator of ourselves. We did not make the blueprint of life. One should consider their purpose and why it’s important to be successful for whatever reason they were put here to live. Consider these words within the scriptures.
            “… so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way; bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthen with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience.                                                                                                                                     Colossians 1: 10&11
In other words, our purpose for being here on Earth and given life at all was simply to bring glory to our creator; for it pleased Him to do such a thing. And we should care enough within our lives to want to do this. This moral brings all the colors into life. Otherwise, all reality will be black and white, then God would be no more than a subject Himself, whereby, we can judge, analyze and bring opinion to base our limited and meek understanding of knowledge of right and wrong.
            Our course in life to be righteous before God comes from a deep human desire to want to please our Lord in the life we live. What more purpose is there to have? In considering the pain in life, plus, the light verses darkness of fate which we witness as we experience salvation, one must grasp their minds around a central purpose of judgement, some sort of conclusion to all this matter. We can look upon the conclusion given within the good book, God’s Words itself, the Bible. We can glance through the pages of Revelations. When you understand the institution of marriage and consider the reality of this being the mirror image of the Book of Revelations we see deeper in the meaning within God’s Word and His plan for human’s salvation. Then we consider the vast pit of death itself whereby one finds resurrection of life through the passing experience of life here on Earth. Well, at least the ones here on Earth who embraces a relationship with Jesus as an acceptable pathway for them to follow and honor their lifestyle. One can glimpse into eternity and witness a sound reason for a purpose when they consider their lives being a pillar of growth, birth, pain, jubilant, victory, sorrow, death, outshine, resurrection and then and only then glance into forever to worship to an all powerful being and creator. Who else are we to be considered worthy of all this humility?

​WHO JUDGES THE RIGHTEOUS? WHO RIGHTS ARE WRONGED?

 
            There’s a certain level of intelligence expected for an adult to be considered normal. Society can measure an exact level or normal reasoning for an average person. There is also a certain level of emotional maturity in an adult’s judgement to be considered morally right. This concept can be argued and often is argued. We have mental intelligence and emotional intelligence. Without even focusing on spiritual enlightens let’s look at our society profile here in the United States of America.
            In this country it is not considered a human right to have food and/or shelter. Now, I’m not stating an argument for the homeless, however, this human right is not agreed equally globally. In other countries it is considered a human right to have food and/or shelter. Yet, here, in the most military powerful, and riches land which globally leads nations, this right is not considered legal. Why bring this point into view? We do have legal rights to choose or change gender as well as vote politically before a legal drinking age, plus choose to practice abortion before a legal age to consent. These are issues we politically fight about. This is not a statement to voice an opinion on rather abortion or the legal drinking age is morally acceptable. However, when scoping the grand scheme of priorities, I have to say that I feel our country here in America has missed the mark.
            We can overlook the emotional intelligence it takes for one to be sexually active then choose to abort the outcome by killing their child. Nevertheless, the mere necessity of food and a place to dwell from the elements of this Earth is overlooked or not considered a priority. We think this way as a nation. I specifically pointing out the right to choose sexually to make a point. When our emotional intelligence is lower than the average standard of moral reasoning it makes it hard to balance a righteous judgement. Although, I may say that this country of the United States does not carry a psychological profile of the right for food and shelter, we do promote the freedom for the right to work or find a fair wage job for the ability to independently support ourselves. This is not to point out fault to our neighbors or fellow citizens. This is to express my level of commitment when it comes to me being a part of the whole. We can not have social justice without economic justice for they are both one and the same. Where I stand on my right to vote illumes a needed decision in the grand scheme of human rights.
