"Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do..." (Luke 23:34)
Is Jesus Crist, our Savior, Still on the World Stage?
Story written by an Unknown Stranger (My name is not important, as it will only redirect your attention from the article which has dire instructions and consequences for the people of the world. Read it with care, and heed the warning! Date: Now | BUTO Magazine
I took the liberty to use the phrase, “Is Jesus Still on the World Stage” as a metaphor (a figure of speech) to draw a symbolic parallel to the actual current events happening on the world stage today, which is in “stark contrast” to Jesus Christ’s message to His audience from the mountain. A stage in the secular world represents and serves as a space for actors or musical performers, and a focal point for its loyal and faithful audience(s). Those who come to listen to the melodic music and voices, or view a theatrical performance, and then illustrate their agreement with its direction, words, and its’ purpose through thunderous praise and applauds.
They (the audience), more than likely take no consideration of the song’s or speech’s message, the performer’s vulgarity, their external appearance, or that of the lyrical message or its intent. The audience only cares that the message liberates them from responsibility and having to conform to their commonsense, morality, and their divine judgement. The judgement and criteria Jesus gave the world from His amphitheater on the mountain (His stage to all mankind).
Some may ask why a mountain? well, just like performers and actors who perform on stage to raise themselves up from the crowd to be seen, heard, and provide a since of importance, dominance, and mystery to the aura surrounding their message. Jesus taught by speaking to the world from the mountain in order to have His message and voice amplified in that all of mankind would hear His message of salvation. It was there on the Mount of Beatitudes (a hill in northern Israel in Galilee), that He instructed man in a speech (less than 12 minutes) of the true virtues of life. One of the most powerful speeches ever given. It was the platform where we the people of the world received hope in Jesus Christ.
It teaches us that His people — those who believe and follow His words — are blessed even through difficult times because they will benefit from eternity in His Kingdom in Heaven. His speech also told us that the possessions on Earth are not important, and that by doing good deeds and following His directions, we the people of God will receive meaningful spiritual “treasures” in Heaven. Additionally, we, Gods people should not worry for nothing, as we will be blessed for our upright and honorable qualities for being meek, merciful, pure, righteous, and a peacemaker.
The story of Jesus’ resurrection can be found in the Bible and is the central part of the Christian holiday “Easter.” On the third day after Jesus’ crucifixion, two women (Mary Magdalene and Mary—often identified as Mary the mother of James) went to His Tomb and discovered that it was empty. They were told by two angels that Jesus had risen from the dead. Jesus instructed the Apostles to spread the word and proclaim repentance and forgiveness of sins in His Name to all nations.
Stunned and shocked as we all must be today regarding the state of the world, yet the scene and stage is set, and the ultimate performance of good and evil has begun. The stage lights are pointed at the people throughout the world who now find themselves embroiled in all sorts of egregious, evil, violent, and a host of unlawful actions against the very fundamental principles of God’s edict to all of us to live life in an honorable and upright fashion in accordance with His Ten Commandments. We now have ongoing violent eruptions, theft, racism, heresy, sexism, adultery, profanity, and murder. These horrific ungodly occurrences extend from one end of the planet to the other with no one untouched by their wickedness and sorrow. It’s mass confusion, and disagreement from the highest levels of government to the most vulnerable in society, and from the highly educated to the undereducated and ignorant; and from the extremely wealthy to the very poor.
Today, every human on earth is experiencing, in some form, the raw negativity from the evil spirits which now roams the earth in great numbers. Concomitantly, it is through the love of money, power, and fame, that we have some of the most turbulent times, and extremely violent wars. Wars deliberately massacring large numbers of innocent people and children as a result of today’s leaders’ inability to agree. [Even on some of the most basic issues as sensible as gun legislation or how to educate today’s youth are on center stage.] Today, there isn’t a person living anywhere on the planet who can’t see or feel the impact of the violence, uptick in natural disasters, global warming, drug epidemic, gun violence, poverty, or widespread diseases such as the recent deadly coronavirus and the aids epidemic. (The Covid-19 Pandemic alone killed more than 1,133,000 people in the US, and according to the World Health Organization (WHO), 6,938,353 people died worldwide.)
Violence and indiscriminate murders today are in every community across America, and the world, from the urban to the upper and more affluent communities with no stoppage in sight. Protest has now become commonplace, as people are disgruntled about everything. Sometimes, I think many don’t even know why they are protesting, as they just seek to be part of something different and bigger than themselves or to just fit in with the crowd, even though the world is falling at their feet. The level of chaos and violence is so prevalent that the people of the world have become desensitized as a direct result of its’ repeated occurrences.
You can say it’s tantamount to watching the on-stage “Broadway Production of Othello”, a William Shakespeare tragedy of revenge, jealousy, and intrigue. On some church stages today, the dramatization is real, and have dire consequences. This is especially true when you have so many pastors who stand behind their pulpit, and spew-out modified versions of God’s words, only to deceive its’ faithful congregation to give money to support their lavish lifestyle. Lifestyles of the rich and famous having expensive homes, million-dollar jets, luxury cars, expensive jewelry, mega-housing compounds in multiple cities, etc., all at the expense of its congregation in the name of God.
It is no wonder people are leaving the church in staggering numbers. The Bible forbids this type of love for money. In Timothy: Error and Greed – 6:6-10: it says, “Now godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish, and harmful lusts which drown men [and women] in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”
These deceitful, and corrupt pastors, ministers, and self-appointed prophets count on its faithful assembly of loyal followers to [not] read the bible but to blindly follow their direction by way of weekly religious fellowship, prayer and/or [paid] deliverance services. God’s words are [not] for sales, as He gave them to us freely from the heart. Plus, the temple of God is within you. (1 Corinthians: 3:16-17: “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in [You]. [17]- If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him or her. For the temple of God is holy, which temple are you.”)
Beware of the false leaders and seek knowledge directly from Him on your own through His written word in the bible. And be reminded that everyone who goes to church, or say they believe in God, does not necessarily make them a Christian. As a Christian is someone whose total behavior and heart will reflect that of Jesus Christ Himself. If you do not see these kinds of noble characteristics in those you associate with, know that they most likely are not of Christ, and you should beware of the falsities of such an individual(s). They undoubtedly may have an unethical and maligning spirit which contradicts that of a true spirit graced through Christ with honor, respect, and love.
There is no excuse to not know the Father because of your ignorance or lack of will to search for Him [Yourself], because He dwells in you. Keep in mind, the message of faith that God has given to us is always close by. It is in your mouth and your heart. If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him up from the dead, you will be saved. Seek Him and His words, and He shall enlighten you of the now and things to come. Do not further empower those who exploit Him for personal riches, fame and undeserving power. If you do so, you are no better than the purveyors and their religious schemes.
The church is a place for fellowship, and it can be as simple as two or three people having spiritual talks. The Church got its definition from the baptizing ministry of the Holy Spirit. The bible teaches us in 1 Cor. 12:13, “By one Spirit we are baptized into one body.” In other words, church is the physical manifestation of Christ, i.e., His body. The same part of His body that dwells within all of man. You must read the bible for yourself as he directed us. Jeremiah 29: 12-13 “Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart, I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations….”)
“Rejoice and pray today, for tomorrow is not promised. Seek the Lord and His Teachings, for in Him we find hope and assurance.”
The Darkest Days of the World are Here!
We are now living in the darkest days according to scripture and Bible prophecy. Evil is exploding all around us with its’ venomous charge to destroy, corrupt, deprive, maim, and kill as many souls as devilishly possible. It is the beast, the two-horned specie which resembles a lamb but speaks like a dragon. It exercises authority over all evil and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship him and making them his prime jewels and army by way of his conning misleading tricks.
Paul was an Israelite and an apostle of Jesus Christ. Jesus revealed Himself to Paul by a flash of light, and then commissioned him to be the attendant and witness of all the things which he saw, and to all the things that had yet to come. Knowing what the future had in store for the people of the world, Apostle Paul encouraged Christians—those who believed in Christ—to remain strong and resist against the works of Satan, the Devil. He is crafty and in his element today. Some believed that Paul was actually referring to the Great Tribulation.
No, I am not a biblical scholar or a theologian, but I do feel God has readied me to share this information with as many people as I can in the light of what is to come in this land. This is not to cast fear in any one’s mind, as everyone has free-will. Rather, it is to provide a choice before the storm—one that mankind has never witnessed before in his or her lifetime. It is poised to be the darkest day ever bestowed on humanity, especially those absent the faith in Jesus Christ.
I ask you to look within yourself and consider a few questions: Are you filled with pride? Do you accept Jesus Christ as your Savior in your heart, rather than mere words? Are you subscribing to the trickery of the Beast by growing your fingernails long and sharp, as if embodying the Beast himself? Have you tattooed your body with demonic symbolisms of the devil? Have you had devilish horns implanted in your head or tattooed the whites of your eyes to resemble Satan? Do you associate with Godly people or those of ill-repute? Do you have a jealous and lying spirit? Do you seek to be wealthy, and live a life above other’s physically and in status? Do you gossip about friends or anyone to depreciate their existence while elevating yours? Do you support those who may be homeless, hungry, sick, or lost? When people speak of you, do they speak favorably or negatively?
All of us are imperfect, but do you at least try to walk in faith while avoiding to being judgmental of others? (For the only one who can judge another is the Lord, as He is the only one who can see a person’s heart.) Your answers to these questions are critical to your survival, as I will not provide you the answers to these important questions. I request that you seek guidance from thy Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. [Although you may have slipped as you walked, it’s never too late; God has a forgiving heart. All you have to do is ask and genuinely repent. You still have a choice and a chance for everlasting life.] The theater of the “Gospel” is now open, and ready for you to secure your ticket to life!
GOD HAS DESTINED EVERY MAN AND WOMAN FOR THE JOURNEY OF EVERLASTING LIFE. YET, IT IS UP TO YOU, INDIVIDUALLY, TO CHOSE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. THE BIBLE OFFERS EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR THAT LIFELINE, BUT YOU MUST ENGAGE WITH IT PERSONALLY. YOUR CHOICE MATTERS PROFOUNDLY.
Finally, as written in the Bible, be readied and put on the Complete Armor of God! (Ephesian 6:10-20) “My brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual host of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
Lastly, take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word God; praying always with prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.” Amen!
