Where are the men and women of courage? Where are the warriors? Where are the men and women of God? Where are the Shadrachs, Meschachs, and the Abednegos? Have we become so complacent that we can not stand for what is right? Have we become so out of tune with the Bible and what it teaches that we cower at the slightest threat? Where is our trust? Where is our faith? Do you even believe the Bible?
Matthew 19:26
Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Do you believe all things are possible with God?
Isaiah 35:4
Say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come to save you.”
Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
Romans 8:38-39 Words from Apostle Paul:
38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
These are just a few promises and commandments from the The Bible. Do you believe, I mean do you really believe? Or, do you have doubts, fear, confusion? If that’s the case, it’s totally normal because we live in a fallen world. But, it does not have to be that way…
Luke 10:19
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Do you believe or do you think the Bible is full of fairytale stories?
Revelation 13:10
“If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity they will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword they will be killed.” This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of God’s people.
Do you believe? Do you have faith? Do you trust the Lord? If you can not wholeheartedly say yes to these questions it’s time to evaluate your relationship with Jesus. And if you don’t know Jesus as your personal savior, now would be a good time to ask Him into your life.
It’s time that the silent majority quits being silent. It’s time for Christians all around the world to stand up and stand out. It’s time that we live for 100% of what the Lord wants. It’s time, past time, to quit blindly following what the world wants and start doing what Gods wants. Are you awake? Have I riled you? I hope so! We are warriors for Christ and as long as we follow the status quo we will never be effective. It’s time everybody understands the power over evil we have in Jesus. It’s time we wake up and quit being deceived and fight in this spiritual battle. It is right here, right now! Tomorrow is too late. If you have not donned the full armor of God, you aren’t doing your part. The reality is that things are going to get much worse. It’s written and you must be prepared. Where’s your faith? Where’s your courage? Are you going to stand for Christ or are you going to cower before man? The choice is yours to make What’s it going to be?

Sorry, no, I don’t believe. The Bible is simply an Iron Age book of mythology that has fantastical tales of the supernatural sprinkled among occasional real places, people and events. It’s not that unlike a Superman comic.

Spot on!
Tim Hancock says
What if your wrong?
David Welch says
Pascal’s Wager – which is what you are arguing – says ‘it is better to believe, regardless of whether a god exists or not’. It is clearly not a proof a god exists and should be rejected out of hand. This sort of ‘logic’ is not a path to truth.
But when did Tim Hancock ever care about truth? LOL
Stephen Svelmoe says
I’ve always been amused by those who think that the logic behind Pascal’s Wager is a good argument for believing in God, as Tim apparently does. As a Jewish Rabbi once put it to a congregant that expressed concern about the consequences of his doubts as to the existence of God. “Why do you think that God cares if you believe in him or not.”
Gomez says
What if you are wrong? If you’re worshiping the wrong god, you’re only making the real god madder.
