A Look at Our Border

  • A Look at Our Borders

    A humble believer’s perspective’s

     

    We see a lot of lost children of God trying to find security and protection from the troubles in their country of origin. We are a country founded on immigration of others escaping the trouble of their own country. The Republican party or should we say Godless purveyors of material wealth on the earth. As stated in the God’s words in Matthew 6.

     

    Matt. 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

    Matt. 6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

    Matt. 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 

    God also nay not reminded us, but demanded we should protect and not be cruel to His little ones in need of protection, Matthew 18.

    Matt. 18:5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

    Matt. 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

    Matt. 18:7 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

    We can not blame the overflow of our borders on President Joe Biden, but Donald Trump who put these innocent children in jeopardy. Sending them to internment camps in Mexico, a sin greater than anyone could commit. While Joe Biden follows the laws of God and His Son or Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, by having mercy on God’s children. All who find fault in this and support what Donald Trump has done to these innocent children are also guilty of these sins. And will be judged as stated in Matthew 18:6.

    We should be applauding our President Joe Biden for his merciful application of God’s commandments in our country’s bureaucracy, surely God and our Lord Jesus Christ will continue to find mercy and favor in us as his chosen people, protecting us regardless of the downfalls of the Republican party and their greed for material possessions. Our countries border security depends on how we address others especially children looking for freedom as our own ancestors did in the past. Nothing has changed except the heart of the greedy, becoming less humane toward God’s children and people. And as for the Republican Party it would be good for them to see what their greed brings forth for them to suffer. In Matthew 19.

    Matt. 19:23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.

    Matt. 19:24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

    A reminder of what our responsibilities are to mankind other than our own ethnical consideration, as it is said in Malachi 2:10. 

    Malachi 2:10 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?

    Perhaps if those of the republican party actually believed in God! And studied the bible more, they would lose the stiff-neck attitude and learn of what our creator and His Son expect from his children. We should be secure in our country and have a strong defense but not a godless attitude toward immigrants and those in need or seen less in our eyes. To judge others is to judge yourself, we are known by our actions toward others in God’s eye. God sees the darkness in all mens hearts, beware of what God sees in yours.

                                              “Amen”                                    

     

    My Prayer for the Republican Party

    As taught by Jesus Christ.

     

    Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

    Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

    Give us day by day our daily bread.

    And forgive us our sins; for we also

    forgive every one that is indebted to us.

    And lead us not into temptation;

    but deliver us from evil.

    In Jesus’s name “Amen” 

    We can make changes in our betterment, being not of this world as Jesus Christ and those who followed him. John 17 the high priest prayer of Jesus Christ.

     John Chapter 17

     

    John 17:1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

    John 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

    John17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

    John 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

    John 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

    John 17:6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

    John 17:7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

    John 17:8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

    John 17:9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

    John 17:10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

    John 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

    John17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

    John 17:13 And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

    John 17:14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

    John 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

    John 17:16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

    John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

    John 17:18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

    Joh 17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

    John 17:20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

    This passage is direct and about us those who follow and believe by the word passed down to us in the Holy Bible, do not forsake our Father and Lord Jesus Christ. Who placed his prayer to our Father in our benefit. “Amen”

    John 17:21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

    For as Jesus Christ and the Father is one, so shall we be in them as stated in verse 23, achieving perfection the three becoming one. 

    John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

    John 17:23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

    Our perfection achieved as God Jesus and we become one, in perfection.

    John 17:24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

    John 17:25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

    John 17:26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them. 

    May God’s ever forgiving grace, mercy and love be upon us as we earn it. It is not so important to follow the ceremonial sacrifices as it is to follow Our Father commandments. As read in 1 Samuel 15, we are reminded of failure to obey God’s commands can not be repented of by ceremonial sacrifice or prayer.

    1 Sam. 15:1 Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.

    1 Sam. 15:2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.

    1 Sam. 15:3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

    1 Sam. 15:4 And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.

    1 Sam. 15:5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.

    1 Sam. 15:6 And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye shewed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.

    1 Sam. 15:7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.

    1 Sam. 15:8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.

    1 Sam. 15:9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.

    1 Sam. 15:10 Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,

    1 Sam. 15:11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.

     

    1 Sam. 15:13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.

    1 Sam. 15:14 And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

    1 Sam. 15:15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.

    > 1 Sam. 15:16 Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.

    > Here and to the end Samuel speaks of Saul’s not obey the commands God put upon him in not destroying the king Agag, and allowing his people to take spoils. Not destroying all livestock and every living thing they possessed.

    1 Sam. 15:18 And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.

    1 Sam. 15:19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?

    1 Sam. 15:20 And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

    1 Sam. 15:21 But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.

    > Sam. 15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

    > Note how it is pointed out to Saul, God loves his people who obey his commands more than the ritual sacrifices and ceremonies made to him.
