01/05/17 WITH JUST THE PUSH OF A BUTTON
(two thoughts)

PUSH OF A BUTTON
I downloaded Google Earth to one of my devices, but before I got a chance to use it I had to do something else. Later in the evening, as I was accessing notes for evening service I saw that the download and install had taken place, and GE had been scanned. But it was the onscreen message that caught my attention. It said,

EARTH IS SAFE
Wow, with just the push of a button I had made the world safe.

Sometimes, when I finish using my tablet, I activate my TASK MANAGER, in order to end various programs. The TM shows me the active programs and I choose which ones to end. If I have been using Google Earth, I am asked if I want to,

END EARTH.
Wow, with just the push of a button I can end earth.

Sometimes I have several programs and I am given the option to choose certain programs to end or I can choose,

END ALL.
Wow, with just the push of a button I can end all.

THOUGHT #1
God is an all powerful TASK MANAGER, and He could have chosen to be an all controlling TASK MANAGER. If God had chosen to be an ALL CONTROLLING task manager, He could make the EARTH SAFE by unilaterally and unconditionally programming everyone to do the right thing. But of course, that would not allow for anyone to have a free will, or to act on a free will. But God did create man with a free will, and God makes it possible for men to freely choose to submit or not to submit to His authority. This is why we live in an UN-safe world.

Still, God can and He will make a SAFE EARTH at some point. But rather than God violating His own will, by unilaterally and unconditionally forcing men to choose or reject Him, God chose to make a SAFE WORLD (New Heaven, New Earth and New Jerusalem) for those who freely choose to yield to His authority.

Do not miss the SAFE WORLD that God will provide for those who choose to believe, receive, repent, confess, trust and follow Him. You really don't want to be the recipient of God's judgment and anger when He does END EARTH, and END ALL of this evil world, because He has declared that those who choose not to trust and obey Him will be judged and condemned forever.

* Now is the accepted time, today is the day of salvation.
* Call upon the Lord while He is near.
* How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation?

John 12:35
(35) Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walks in darkness knows not whither he goes.

THOUGHT #2
We do not have the power to make EARTH SAFE, or to END EARTH, or to END ALL.

However...
We have power to either be a blessing or a curse.
We are either channels of God's goodness or channels of Satan's evil.
We either bring life or we bring death.
We either shed light or we spread darkness.
We either align ourselves with God or against God.

* Choose this day, whom you will serve.
* Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire...
* But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

2 Corinthians 5:20
(20) Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
