“And Jesus answering said, A certain man [*Adam] went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves [*Moses & Elijah, or The Law & The Prophets], which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. [*Luke 10: 30 (KJV)]"
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast [*their own, self-righteousness!], saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? [*Revelation 13: 3, 4 (KJV)]"
“And he [*the servant] said unto him [*the Older Prodigal Son], Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him. And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: but as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. [*Luke 15: 27-30 (KJV)]”
The Cross of Jesus Christ will never… ever… “kiss” our wounded ego’s ass! The Cross of Jesus Christ signifies the death of our wounded ego! The Cross of Jesus Christ was never about… is never about… the gifts, talents and abilities of vain, self-worshiping men and women who are possessed by their own raging, wounded egos; but rather, both the weakness of God and the foolishness of God! The weakness of God is far superior to the greatest strengths of any and all men and women, working in conjunction; and the foolishness of God is far more wise than any and all of the alleged, so-called “intelligence” and “brilliance” of men and women, combined.
Babylon, the harlot christian church is become a hub for marketing, merchandising the gifts, talents and abilities of vain, self-worshiping men and women; but where is there any preaching of the Cross of Jesus Christ, and any deeper understanding of the Apocalypse that occurred thereon… in the physically broken and torn, sacrificial body of Jesus Christ’s own flesh… where we “appeared” in Him? Huh?? What???
Ah, that “deadly wound” of ours, our wounded ego; which, through our subjecting ourselves ignorantly unto the Law once again, has been healed! Yes, we have become persuaded, yet once more, that we can actually do something to get saved, and stay saved; even, to make God happy with us, and keep God happy with us! (*Because we are afraid of what might just happen, if we piss Him off!)
Wounded ego, what a suffocating presence; which demands that others walk around it on “eggshells” so as not to “inflict” one more possible disappointment upon it, so that it will not completely shatter in its totally “weakened” and “fragile” state!! What deceitful manipulation!! What a grand performance of false humility, given by that “holier-than-thou,” fretful, over-sensitivity! Ah, the basis for all fearful, self-righteous, arrogant, condescending, pretentious narcissism! Welcome to modern-day churchianity! Welcome to Babylon, the harlot christian church and unto the emphasis of all her self-glorifying sorceries! Today, we are going to rejoice and celebrate in the Blood of the One Man, from Whom all of our true freedom and liberty flow effortlessly, and lavishly… |
