Hatred, Darkness and the Love of Jesus Christ
2nd Corinthians 5
13 - For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God, or whether we be sober, it is for your cause
14 - For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that is one died for all, then were all dead
I am starting this off with a scripture from the bible. You do not have to read this, you can be ignorant enough not to accept someone Else's view. Every christian is told that they must accept "us", Grow the f*** up! so this "church" doesn't like that I am a homosexual. So what everyone does NOT have to agree with you. So you do NOT need to picket them.
Jesus Christ has taught that we must love one another. That is very true, we can love and not agree with what you are doing. Yes it is as simple as that. We all need to gather together and love one another vs. the hatred you see. I blame the news media and social networks for all the darkness in this world. So in Utah they have struck down polygamy and the definition of marriage. Which is funny how when Utah was trying to become a state, The federal government made the state put those definitions in the constitution. The vote in 2004 was nothing more then a clearer version of that definition.
Nowadays you do not like something you can sue them to get your way. We live in a country that is a democracy. Basically that means that if a majority votes for one thing then it becomes law. So if the majority of the people vote for something that I do not agree with I must stand by and live with it (gun Controls). Lately it has been lets do the vote, protest people that supported the opposite view, and then sue the state or federal government so I can get my way. We have a darkness in the U.S.A that is the minority has more power then a majority vote.
I was watching a rant on face book become insane in the comments section. Social media like Face book and Twitter has ruined manners. Plain and simple if you do not believe in something a "friend" posts and then you argue that point to the point of ignorance and stupidity. Everyone has the RIGHT to voice their opinion. Now you can discuss this without hateful words. I do not agree with everything my brother has done, but I still love him and pray for the day i can embrace him once again. He has chosen a path that has brought him mortal pleasures and forgone the spirit of the Lord.
I have only a few cousins, even fewer i see on a regular basis. My dearest memories contain a cousin that now is half around the world. I love him I saw him a few years ago at his sister wedding, now he is a drinker. I do not drink, Have had a few times in high school, and that does not stop me from loving him. My closest friend from trucking days drinks, nope still love him. I have a many of friends that post pictures of the few people that are abusing the government system of welfare. Now I usually do not post remarks about it, but they need to realize that majority of those people are hard workers and are working to get off programs like food stamps. In 2007 I could no longer work, in 2008 and 2009 I was categorized as 100% disabled. We got on Food Stamps and used help from our parents and Church. 2009 my dear wife went back to school. now she could have gone back to work and work a menial job, but we chose a different path for the betterment of our little family. I would stay home take care of what I can. She would go to school and become a nurse. Now it is 2014 and we have 1.5 years left and she will walk away with 4 degrees, AS, LPN, RN, and BSN. Now she will go out to the world ready to work and make a wage, Now we are very grateful for the government programs. Now you might be reading and wonder what this all has to do with my title, It does work, Just wait.
I was taught to love one another and to avoid hatred and Darkness by many, but most importantly my Mother and Father, and Two great "parents" that took me in for my senior year of high school. Now i feel the hatred come across me when the darkness prevails over me. In the winter I have very hard time when the temp drops below 20* and i am in greater pain. I am working my way back to being a better Father and supporting my kids as I and my heavenly Father sees fit. I will love my children for all of eternity. I will support them, by teaching them to work and to manage their money earned. To pay a tithe to the Lord to support the people that may be in our situation in the future. I love my Lord and I know he only gives me what i can handle. I must be one tough MOFO! Many things have come and gone have made me more and more understand what Jesus Christ and God are trying to teach us while we are on this mortal world.
Many will say religion is of the Devil, modern prophets are false. Here is why there is a misinterpretation of that. First you are looking a a religion that is guided by a man that says he is a Prophet. I am in a Church that has a Prophet that will never refer to himself as one, He will be a servant unto the people and unto the Lord. Jesus Christ will always guide you back to him, but he will leave up to you to get there. So through the LOVE of Jesus Christ you shall be saved. There must be opposition in all things. Remember that always. For if you have a good you must have a bad. Even in yourself you will find that you will have a cartoon angel and devil on each side. What wins is the one that you feed the most. For i have chosen to follow Christ, does not make me any better then anyone. You must love one another to understand the truth of what is being taught, and you must be willing to listen to other views.
If you are reading this then know that even if I do not agree with you does not mean I do not care for or love you.
Thank you for reading this
Love Mr. Crossrds
