The Consequences of Everything 2/15/2015

[Book of Jeremiah]

This is a timely sermon by Michael Boldea Jr.. It is timely because the hour is late and if people do not begin to consider the consequences of not doing what they should be doing - the day will come when it will be too late. Then what?

The Consequence of Everything

There are consequences to everything in life. There are consequences to action, as well as to inaction, to ignorance as well as to knowledge, to foolishness as well as to wisdom. Nothing we choose to do or not do, say or not say, embrace or shun, is absent consequence both in the instant we’ve made said choice, as well as from that point forward throughout your existence, and oftentimes far beyond.

I believe we’ve lost sight of this all important fact as a society, and it is one of a handful of reasons we are in the condition we are in, circling the drain ever so precipitously, clinging to anything whether it be a straw or a clump of earth just as long as we can keep alive the flicker of hope that we can return to former glory, and rediscover the righteous path we’ve long abandoned.

The problem as I see it is that all most of us do is hope. We don’t act, we don’t speak, we don’t exhibit righteous anger as the grossest of perversions befouls what ought to be the most sacred of places, we keep silent, keep our head down, go about our daily labors, and hope.

While we’re doing all the hoping, they’re doing all the acting, and in case you haven’t looked at the scorecard lately, we’re down by a lot more points than we’d like to admit.

Here is some more of his sermon on the Consequence of Everything:

We tell each other our tales of sorrow, and even then in hushed tones, because we fear reprisal, we fear the spotlight, we fear being singled out by the machine, we fear being thoroughly chewed up, spat out, and left for dead, and this fear is what the darkness is betting on to keep us silent. The silence of the righteous is like catnip for the devil, and with each silenced voice he grows all the more emboldened.

Given what we’ve seen of late, this fear is completely justified, and the fact that Christians, and men of substance are being targeted is not just your jangly nerves working overtime, but a present reality. As children of God, however, we must move beyond the fear, and by faith override the inherent need for self-preservation, for only then will we have the wherewithal to stand boldly and declare sin for what it is, knowing that reprisal is a given.

We are seeing the consequences of silence and acquiescence all too vividly in our society, and the longer we remain silent, the worse it will become.

When the bell tolls, and the bill comes due, we will likely be in a mad rush to find someone to blame, someone to pass the buck to, but will ultimately realize that though the blame can likely be spread around a bit, by and large the brunt of it must be appropriated by those who chose silence over vocal opposition to the darkness, and who having done the math realized that going along to get along would ensure their comfort and ease far longer than standing up for the truth would have.

Every man values one thing above another. We either value truth more than we value our flesh, or we value our flesh more than we value truth. Our actions will speak the truth of it even if our lips might not.

That is worth repeating - We either value truth more than we value flesh, or we value our flesh more than we value truth. What do you value most?

Obviously, the bible thumper Jeremiah forgot to take her meds today. ...

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Get it onto a bumper strip and it might have an audience.

I think he should write a book on the subject. It would certainly be better reading material than 99% of what is out there today, Henry.

i didn't watch...did he say shadows are black people chasing you??

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

It wasn't a film. It's a sermon in writing. See the OP.

As for black people? I love black people the same as I love white people, Nutz. There is no difference between a black person and a white person other than the color of their skin. We all look the same on the inside. That is a truth too many people fail to see.

What will it take for people to come out of the going along to get along - PC crowd - and start standing up for the truth?
