When we look at a scale, its a way to measure weight of things. If it is good it will be Good or Right: suitable, fit, sound, whole, truth, well-founded. If its evil or wrong, it will cause wickedness, causing harm, distress, threatening,iniquity;
The quest is on, to be the most beautiful, the moist intelligent, the one with the most Savoir-faire as the French would put it, or having a polished sureness in social behavior. In other words, knowing what to do in any situation. Are you that type of person? People want to be the one, that no matter what circumstance or situation they are in, they know how to avail themselves in that situation.
People today have taken the wrong road in human development. They’ve moved from wanting to connect to the creator Jesus, Yahweh, God, the creator with the real intelligence, and they are choosing, instead, to be connected to an artificial intelligence that is compiled programming man made language to simulate. It does what man tells it to do. They tell machines what they want them to do. People would rather be controlled by a computer program, than by the intellectual intelligent program of God which is KJV language. Look at the society we live in. Its changed so much that man wants to be in a machine, that they are implanting themselves with machines. There are millions of people around the world who have decided to implant a chip in their bodies. Trans-humanism. The chip makes everything “convenient” in everyday life. They are allowing chips to communicate with other computers to tell them how to live; what is best for them. People want to be trans-humanists so badly that they are allowing machines to coordinate their day. The world is pulling toward that so much, that its trying to teach our men to be accpetant of them. Our young men don’t know if they are men, and some girls don’t know if their girls. They want to confuse you of your identity so that you’ll be acceptant of what they want to place on you. Our President and society tells people that its ok to be that way, as to prepare them for what they will do to them. This is something God gave us common sense to know; nature even gives us common sense to know. Animals procreate with the opposite sex; they know better. What would happen if all the men went to men, and all the women went to women? We all would die out. Why does our government make laws that accept such a lifestyle? To fulfill a fleshly need. Our government made laws and ordinances to make the rest of society conform to this philosophy. To them that don’t comply will be prosecuted under law. In other words to force you to accept this way of thinking even when it goes against common sense of a species that God had ordained, to maintain life of its kind on this plant.
In this world, Christ has warned us in health, disasters around the world, famines, pestilence, earthquakes, and
an incredible increase in man’s inhumanity to man. As in kids violence to other kids in this country. God has been warning folks. When kids walk into their high schools displeased and kill their classmates. You can only protect yourself so far, because Satan doesn’t care if you are a king, chancellor; he will attack you. If Satan took Christ to the pinnacle to try to swindle Him, what and who are we?
This country, the United States, is now known as the new Babylon. When you change the moral fabric of a society to suite the minority and not the majority, then you have a problem. We have people who say its ok to seek revenge on people who dislike you. Its ok because you’re the underdog in society. If anyone comes after you and attacks you, we will make a law to protect you. There will come a time when those of the Church who are preaching the truth will be attacked. Everything done in Sodom and Gomorrah, they are doing in the United States today. Homosexuality, bestiality, genetic experimentation, cloning… If they are cloning animals, you think they’re cloning humans? But President Clinton made a law against such things. You know how many rules against humanity the government has broken? Do you want to live in a society that you don’t know whether you’re male or female, teaching our kids to dumb them down? Is there any creativity in schools today? This country has been warned by the hand of God, even as Belshazzar in the Bible was warned by the handwriting on the wall.
Daniel 5
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.2 Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.6 Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.7 The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spake, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.8 Then came in all the king’s wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation thereof.9 Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonied.
They have disrespected God and His temple. We have to wonder if we do the same things in our lives. Do we take the things of God in our lives and make them for our own? They were having a party and all of a sudden there is a hand, writing on the wall.
10 Now the queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house: and the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:11 There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers;12 Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.13 Then was Daniel brought in before the king. And the king spake and said unto Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, which art of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Jewry?14 I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.15 And now the wise men, the astrologers, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof: but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing:16 And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.17 Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.18 O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour:19 And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down.20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him:21 And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this;
Belshazzar is doing the exact same things his dad did. This great man of pride who looked down on evey one else, now everyone was looking down on him! Your pride comes before a great fall. Daniel first had to get this straight before he interpreted the writing on the wall.
23 But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:24 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.25 And this is the writing that was written, Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.26 This is the interpretation of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.28 Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.29 Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.30 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.31 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.
You who knows better, talking about you walking in the things of God, but in the world taking His things and using them for your personal use, you’re not far from being disciplined. Your arms are too short to box with God. Belshazzar knew better. Has your life been weighed on this scale? Has there been a hand writing occasion in your life. Its big to talk about Christ, but have you been living Christ? Talk is cheap? Why? Because there are no returns. You have to be able to walk the walk before you can tell someone else about the goodness of Jesus. Belshazzar got so big in his shoes, that he allowed himself to escape into mess. Are you doing what you should do in Christ as you should, or do you only just have good game? People who get rich and get money, they praise God, driving around in their BMW, but can’t help their brothers and sisters in need. They don’t share because they don’t want people to take advantage of you. You don’t hear this talk in Church, because these pay tithes. So those who have money aren’t preached to, but those who don’t are. Those who have money are allowed to sit in the respected places in the Church, while others without money are spoken to disrespectfully and told to sit in the back. Respect of persons.
In my conclusion: The word tell us “ were a man’s heart is there lies his treasure” Matthew 6:21. If you desire so much of this life of this earth and the people of this world plus the thoughts and hopes it brings, then your mind is weighed on the wrong evil side of this life!
Matthew 5:20
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Where is your heart? Where is your heart? Where is your heart? What are your desires? Some of us talk God, but the world is beating us doing it. We can’t go out into the world and minister to the needy, because they might hurt us, and because we complain…they need something. Meanwhile, we have others who don’t give honor to God about doing things, but they are out there shoveling out all they have to the needy. I don’t want to share the Word of God with anyone, you know why? Because they might ask me a question that I don’t know. Can you do good to someone who does good to you? Easily. But can you do good to some one who uses you? Its hard. But in-spite of you, you must do good.
Proverbs 17:1-7
Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife. A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren. The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the Lord trieth the hearts. A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue. Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished. Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers. Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
A lie needs support, but the truth need only be spoken only once.
