Political Correctness Lethal Weapon of Choice

Political Correctness: A trend that wants to make everything fair, equal and just to all by suppressing thought, speech and practice in order to achieve that goal.

While I ponder what it means to be politically correct (P.C.), I have come to realize how powerful this terminology has become and the huge impact it has on our homes, our schools, and even in our churches. It is everywhere. It has changed how we view truth because of its frequent attempt to justify sin and its reckless behavior. If we allow political correctness to dictate our speech and/or belief we are undoubtedly opening the door to disobedience and will be establishing a watered down version of Truth just to avoid controversy.

In all likelihood the realization is that many of us, including myself, have been fashioned into this way of thinking for the fear of being called a bigot. It is time for us to move past these fears and away from P. C. way of think to living a life that is spiritually correct no matter the cost. And in order for this to take place we need to recognize the world’s goal is to chip away at each individual’s moral fiber by denying Biblical Truth, Christian values, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and moral absolutes. If the man/church can be looked upon as being wrong - subsequently the Gospel can be made to look weak.  We have to realize it is not the attack on truth that causes the decay; it is attack on man and his lack for standing on truth that causes the Gospel to appear insignificant. It is time we start living towards what we say we believe and our reward, and stop fearing political correctness to dictate our actions. This is made possible by continually pointing back to the favor of Jesus Christ. Showing that in Him the promise of God has been fulfilled and salvation can be found. In Him peace and joy is made possible. In Jesus, and only Jesus, there is the true power/ strength/ and glory… None of which is in the power of our culture.
As believers in Christ we are commanded to love others.  This includes the unlovable, those who make us uncomfortable, as well as those who may not know Him, etc. It is about us loving as Christ loved.  As we stand against all the lies of the world in order to bring honor and glory to our Heavenly Father, King Jesus.

I leave you with: The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes. The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever. The ordinances of the LORD are sure and altogether righteous. They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb. By them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward. (Ps 19:7-11)

A Healthier Me in More Ways than One

Image
Even though breakfast was stressed as being the most important meal of the day, I grew up bypassing it day after day and year after year. I believe it was mainly because I did not understand the full benefits of breakfast. Not to mention I did not like my family’s staple of eggs and sugary cereals nor the way these foods made me feel when I ate them. But truth to be known I thought I could function just as well without it. Can you say delusional? Now that I have found myself in my late forty’s and not getting any younger, I have come to understand the importance of this power meal as I start taking precautionary measures in order to prevent the onset of health issues as I age. While I try to change a lifelong habit I have found it to be not easy, somewhat difficult and rather frustrating at times while I work towards figuring out what foods will be the most beneficial for me. However, on the bright side, my body has become accustom to eating first thing in the morning. I no longe...

No More Shackles

  Here is a post that I am sure will touch you as it did me.   It is a day I had with mother about a month just before her passing on August 15, 2012.   I found this day to start off as any other day with our typical going over and the preparing of papers, making sure everything was in order at the time of my mother's death.  This was something I never looked forwarded to but knew how important it was to her because she wanted to make it as easy as possible on all of her children.  It was just another way she could expressed  her love for us all.  But even with all the busyness I could sense there was something still troubling my mother.  As we began to talk I started to see a side of her I had never seen before.  A side in some ways took me by surprise but in others not so much.  You see my mom had always been known as strong female or a strong welled woman to sa...

Why "living Outside the Grey"

Why this title “Living Outside the Grey”. As my heart longs to live as Christ, I sometimes find myself being morphed into the world’s image. As I become accustomed to its morals and standards this somehow causes the line of Truth to be pushed back; thus causing the grey matter to appear. In order for me to live unto Him I have to break away from the requirements of society and cling to the Truth of the Master. I am sure this stance will not come without cost but in order for me to grow into the likes of Him it is vital for me to press onward so others can see it is possible to live solely on God’s principals, no matter the social order. I am sharing this journey with you since I believe there are others who desire to live in the fullness of our Heavenly Father, without grey substance. This voyage will unbelievingly bring forth questions, concerns, and possibly some fear as we transform into the likeness of Jesus. I am looking forward to seeing God restore hearts and minds as we...
