“You reap what you sow”

“You always reap what you sow; there is no shortcut.”

--Stephen Covey

 

In my studies to find out how we have gotten into the situation that we find ourselves with all of its confusion, chaos, fear, and an attempt to change what has become the greatest nation ever to exist upon the face of the earth by failures: i.e., Socialism, Communism, and to a totalitarian state that has never succeeded I have found that too many citizens who call themselves Christian acquiesced in some way to those evil ideologies being presented some 300 plus years ago.  This is not to condemn all Christians for there are many who are doing all they can to fight these evils that are trying to change our way of life and are busy bringing the good news of Jesus Christ to their world.  What was sowed in the past is being reaped today.  The seeds that were sowed were watered by men and women whose sole purpose was to deconstruct what has become the greatest nation ever on earth and to reconstruct it by governmental regimes that have never succeeded.  The words spoken of old are just as valuable today as when they were spoken.

 “Those who plant injustice will harvest disaster,” says King Solomon (Proverbs 22:8). “You have planted wickedness, you have reaped evil,” says the prophet (Hosea 10:13).  The laws of true morality can be seen ignored and lack of respect for others, for history, and by such organizations as the BLM, and Antifa, and by a government that has ignored previous success. “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to the flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.” Galatians 6:7-8.

          Where are the watchkeepers of the field ensuring that the seeds being sowed were seeds that would continue to keep growing the success that gave this nation freedom and independence.  Who are the watchkeepers and why were they not watching the one(s) doing the sowing?  The watchkeepers were the ones who came to this new land where they could have freedom and independence away from governments that were harsh, evil, who controlled almost every movement.  The men and women who came to this new land were Christians looking for freedom of religion and even atheists were looking also for freedom and independence who were the watchkeepers and the developers of this great nation to be called the United States.  These watchkeepers fought one of the greatest military regimes and won their freedom and independence and developed the constitution that is the greatest document ever written to govern the government.  The moral laws of the Bible are the basis for the laws that were written to protect our freedom, and our independence.  Christians were actively involved in the governing of our nation and more ensuring that the seeds been sowed where the quality that were sowed when this land became inhabited by people looking for freedom and independence.

          The United States grew into opulence with its technology and industrialization and companies willing to manufacture whatever the people wanted so that that it would make people feel successful and have some sort of comfort in their life.  This caused Christians to fall asleep!  In an attempt to revive some sort of Christianity all sorts of ideas infiltrated into the church and to the minds of the congregants whereby they fell for all sorts of worship that made him/her feel pious and worthy of God: not Scripturally sound.  Music became a way for young people to be drawn to some sort of worship and the music was music found in worldly, non-Christian bands.  The titilating and over top emphasis services, group euphoria, emotions led astray, shouting, the frantic waving of hands, has not led people to react to the onslaught of evil being thrust upon the people of the United States, and the Church: lethargy, and apathy, is the mindset of the watchkeepers who have fallen asleep from their duties.  Preaching done today in seminaries and Universities that claim to be Christian are the recipients of ideologies that are contrary to our United States, are teaching more about psychological than about the need for repentance and belief and conversion.  Too many churches today look like a clubhouse and a place where God is to be worship, what is seen is disrespect in dress, and hairstyles, that are nothing more than what is seen in non-Christian people.  Where is the respect for God?  It is not the everyone must wear a suit and tie or that a woman/girl should wear a formal dress, but at least not to be in flip/flop shower shoes and shorts and tank tops looking as though they were just waiting that the service would be over so that they do whatever they wanted to do. Ready for play but not worship!

          What is your priority? Of course, as a Christian God has first priority but that is spiritual. What about the natural, the place where you live and operate? Is your priority your home, cars, things, to have a “big” home, “expensive cars” or the best play toys: i.e., boats, skidoos, etc., or, is it your children? What are you willing to do to put your children in the first place in this world? Do you really need two jobs? Do you really need the best car? Are you upset that “Critical Race Theory” is being taught in your children’s school, Universities, in government, among other theories that are derivative from men who are against our form of government and lifestyle? Is it just talk? Wouldn’t it be nice if your children came home to mother baking cookies? Old fashion? No! Remember, in the 50’s we did not turn out drug infested kids, or school shootings, rioting, no! We came home to mother who was at home and willing to listen to us, to baked cookies. Do your children just hear talk or do they see you actually attempting to do something about all this contradiction to our nation? What is your priority?

Lastly: example: I lived in a 900 sq. ft. home with seven people, three sisters, a brother, mom and dad, three bedrooms, living room, one bathroom, kitchen that served as a dining area: yes, we survived, and well, and are doing just fine: we did not need all the trimming (would be nice of course) but not needed, mom and dad, built character in their children. Yes, I slept in the same bed with my brother, my sisters slept together, and one bathroom (it wasn’t easy) but we did it (didn’t kill each other) and we had love from mom and dad, not sometimes when they were home. We were their priority! Home schooling is the answer to all the socialistic, anti-American philosophies that are being taught in school. Simple but not easy to make the change but it can be done: YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!

A simple, but hard answer, bring your kids home, take them away from public schools that are nothing more than a lion den filled with ideologies that are attempting to make you the parent bad and the school the savior. Home schooling is the answer. Be involved! It is not just your children who are at risk, it is our grandchildren, great grandchildren and all the progeny that comes. Be involved in making your children to have the highest priority and to be involved in your, church, your nation, so that what was begun in 1776 will not be destroyed.  IF IT IS TO BE THEN IT IS UP TO ME.
