Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker?
Job 4:17
The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of The Almighty has given me life.
Job 33:4
Life and breath coexist because there is nothing dead that is breathing and there is nothing living that does not breathe.
You can remove pieces, sections and portions of the brain and live, you can remove one kidney and live.
You can cut off your arms, legs and remove your eyes, tongue and ears and still live.
The heart being the source of the blood and the lungs receiving the breath are two that you cannot live without.
And apart from God man will not survive.
This is why.
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Genesis 2:7
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made.
In Him was life; and the life was the light of men.
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
John 1:1-5
'Where flame cannot live no animal that draws breath can live'
Leonardo daVinci
Jesus said, I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Christ Jesus is the blood, the breath and the life.
John 6:53,54
Why did I type all of these things?
Jesus said that as long as He was physically in the world that He would be the light of the world.
When He died and rose for us as the first begotten of the dead and went to sit at the right hand of the Father as our mediator, He said that those who were His followers would now be the light and that light would not be hidden.
And we won't.
If this gospel truth is hidden it's hidden from those who are lost.
In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of those who will not believe, lest the light of the gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
We are not called to talk about our selves or what we think.
Because God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:3-6
So what I type is not to insult or to exalt me but to shed light.
I recently saw a television talk show that discussed the sexual abuse and molestation of young men.
There was a theory that was presented that said that the men's decision to choose homosexuality was not as a result of the sexual abuse.
The hostess seems to believe this theory while she her self discredited her own theory.
She spoke of her own experience of being sexually abused as a young woman and how she was labelled fast or promiscuous.
She was not born promiscuous or fast these were choices that she made not understanding the effect of what she was doing or why.
Why is it that she cannot understand that this is the same experience that misleads into homosexuality?
She later came to understand that she was not born promiscuous and no longer made the choice to live that way.
We weren't made to be able to process the perversion of abuse because it is not natural nor of God.
It is through Christ that we are able to heal and overcome what the devil twists.
The same is true for the homosexual, why would it be any different?
The hostess also mentioned how the prison's must be filled with men and women who have suffered this type of abuse and chose crime, drugs, alcohol, prostitution and so on.
She proved her own theory wrong.
Tyler Perry replied " But by the grace of God..."
A Crip is not born a Crip, a Blood is not born a Blood.
You are born black and you can't choose the color of your skin.
Being born black is not the result of abuse.
If you are black and raised around white people you may develop an accent that wouldn't easily identify your voice as that of being African American.
You are still black.
You may be born white and raised in an African American neighborhood and develop an accent that wouldn't easily identify you as being white.
You are still white.
You all know what I mean, a Caucasian who sounds like he should be hosting on BET because he developed an accent as a result of his environment.
You are born a creation of God and no abuse can change how He formed you.
In His image and likeness.
A Skinhead is not born a skinhead, you would not be called a nigga by a 3 year old Caucasian child until that 3 year old has been exposed to that type of abusive language on a regular basis.
A bully is not born a bully.
A prostitute does not make the decision at 4 years old to become a prostitute this choice is shaped by her life experience.
Neither does a 3 year old child have the ability apart from an adverse experience to choose homosexuality.
Who would choose this?
No one who has the hope of God in them would choose a life of prostitution,or sexuality outside of God's will.
The hostess' experience did shape her life she just didn't choose homosexuality.
She didn't choose heroine or crack or prostitution.
She chose promiscuity early on and gluttony.
This is not an insult because we all choose something to cope with the perversion perpetrated by the work of the enemy until we come into the knowledge of the truth and the healing of Christ.
Some choose to be bullies or cynical.
Many abused become cynical, bitter and unforgiving.
Trust is broken.
I chose food because I believed that if I was not attractive I would be safe.
Tyler Perry has demonstrated this truth in his films and plays, that no one is born gay or less than what God intended them to be, but that it is the environment that shapes our choices and decisions.
I didn't say that Tyler said this, I said that his films and plays demonstrated it clearly.
His many stage plays and films show the attitude of women who have been hurt by life.
Their attitudes and choices have always reflected the pain that they suffered.
They were not born bitter young girls, they were not born abusing their children.
No one is born homosexual.
Not until they come to the realization of God's true love do they then begin to heal, forgive, learn, move on and reflect that love in their attitude and choices.
The one thing that the enemy does is he perverts that which God has created for good.
If you don't know our Father as a Father you would place the blame on Him.
It would be like believing that your parent's wanted you to be abused.
Some of you may have been abused by your natural parents, that happened to one of the well known women of God but I am sure that her mother didn't want that for her.
God doesn't desire that any of us suffer this is why He sent His Word.
God has given us knowledge in great measure, the ability to put a halt to corruption in every form.
But when we lack knowledge is when we perish.
Pornography and molestation is not sex nor is it love but it's accepted in a world that is void of understanding. Violent video games and television are also things that shape the thought process of children and adults.
But we ignore it for gain.
Just like we ignore the abuse of power.
The abuse of power, be it at the hands of a priest, pastor, president, teacher, judge, coach, parent, boss or any placed in a position of authority or leadership.
If it's not addressed the light stays off.
We joke about it and it's admired when a judge, governor, politician or a president cheats on his wife.
We are selective in who we will call on the carpet, we make excuses for our friends and family instead of getting them help.
Pornography is one of the main culprits.
We believe that a label, lock, late hour or law will keep it out of the hands of the impressionable and those who are not mature enough to see it.
Believing that there is an age were it is appropriate when there is no appropriate age for it.
Sexual abuse is just one form of abusing authority, the corporate world has done this for years free of any rebuke that is lasting.
"I'm grown" "I'm in charge "is the response.
But never in the history of time have there been so many grown folks lost.
So many at the head being the cause for the fall.
So many marriages destroyed, so many children disturbed, so many relationships ruined, so many people robbed.
You see an aversion for the things of God while Hollywood is embraced with hugs and kisses.
An institution that has become the example for our youth.
If a child is exposed to pornographic visions and pictures at an early age this is a form of abuse and confusion that spreads to other children and acquaintance's like a disease, creating more ill.
If a child is told that they don't have a voice and that what happens in the house stays in the house, the abuse can go on forever.
It's a twisting of what God created for men and women to share.
And it will have an adverse affect on how they see sexuality and the meaning of submission.
Submission means to cooperate with the plan of God and we do not see true submission even from men who profess it because if men were truly submitted to God there would be no denominations.
Denomination equals division.
We were not formed in the womb with a propensity towards the unusual or the unnatural or double minded thinking.
When sin entered the world it was through a twisting such as this and it perverted the ground and the way in which all men thought from then on.
Only when the truth is told will men be healed.
I don't mean attack the lost by pushing that they won't enter the kingdom of God, but teach them.
I'm not talking about legislating but turning on the light.
You who are so adamant about pointing out who will enter examine the whole text.
Proverbs 6:16-19
These six things does the LORD hate: yes seven are an abomination unto Him:
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
An heart that devises wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
A false witness that speaks lies, and he that sows discord among brethren.
You who believe that your lifestyle is your admission into the kingdom of God may want to examine your own hearts.
Because the abomination of sin is not an outward appearing thing, it is of the heart.
Jesus explained this when He taught that adultery was when a man looked upon a woman with lust.
Our help and healing is not on the couch of one who has studied psychology, it's in the pages of Holy Scripture and in The Blood of Christ Jesus.
Proverbs 8:13
Psalm 19:7,8
Psalm 139:13
LOVE Y'ALL :)
