I make war! Cause sin never sleeps It's got me in a trance You can see it in my dreams I make war! Man I beat my flesh
To the death, every breath Like I beat my chest I make war
Christmas break almost over, which means I will return to Eureka College. The long Christmas break has become a cease-fire or retreat from the "War" that takes place on campus each day. Some may happen weep for their classmates out of the pain and heartbreaking love that they have for them. Personally the thought of people, who I go to school with day in and day out that do not follow Christos
(2Corinthians 5: 14-15) "For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died;15 and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised."). keeps me up at night from time to time. The truth is, that War never changes, whether it is on the battlefield of campus/job, or to when everybody goes home. War, War follows you home. We have all heard the stories of men who went out to battle and come home with traumatic stress. Out in War the soldiers sometimes see their best friends blown up in front of them. Some warriors are captured and are held prisoner for years. Battle scars are created from the events from what is seen in war. War can change a man, but War the very event itself never changes. The warrior returns home thinking the war is over, but the war in the mind has just begun. When you fall asleep and the events play back in your head over and over only to haunt you. Fallout 3 was right, "War Never Changes"Evil never changes, lets be honest.
Ephesians 6:12 (NASB) For our struggle (war) is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
The war we fight as Christians is not just an external war but also an internal of the soul. Our struggle is against darkness, spiritual forces, wickedness. Our struggle is not against people, the lost or thoses who are considered enemies of the Gospel, (" Romans 11:28 From the standpoint of the Gospel "the lost" are enemies for your sake, but from the standpoint of God's choice they are beloved for the sake of the fathers")
To the death, every breath Like I beat my chest I make war

Instead of seeing people as enemies in War, we need to see them as potential family members of the body of Christ. That we want to see our friends and family, classmates, teachers, all who are around us in our lives...ect in heaven to know the love that we have with Christ and In Christ. Matthew 25:40“And the King (God) will answer them, ‘I assure you: Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me.’(Think about it) Who can be lower than those who are not enriched in Christ and known by Christ. This is a whole new perspective of how to see who are "the least of theses" in our lives. Because the way we treat others should be the same way we would treat Jesus. When we care the the weak and the lost and our enemies that is how Jesus cared for us when we were in darkness. Make War, because War Never Changes, evil never rests, but be encouraged God never changes (Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.) and He to never rests, and one day He will put evil to rest and then the world will be at peace.
Revelation 21:3-4
And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away."
War Never Changes but war will cease to exist, and be nothing but a memory.
Take the words I have wrote, think and test it with Scripture for I need to hear this message just as much as the reader does, for I am just man. Be Humble, May Grace and Truth be with you always.
