WAR
Let me begin with saying i am a USAF Veteran of the late 70's early 80's, i worked on Minuteman Missile Computers, and then was a Radioman in the ANG. i served my country in peacetime keeping it prepared for anything.
My nephew had a paper to write on war.. he chose the Civil War and WWII. He had to write the reasons why for each side and how it could have been avoided. i had a chance to read him this:
"From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust and have not, ye kill and desire to have and cannot obtain, ye fight and war yet ye have not because ye ask not. Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Ye adulterers and adulteresses know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?" James 4:1-4 Did he get it, i don't know, i have not read his paper yet.
War is good for absolutely nothing but death and destruction. War begins in each person, with lusts warring in us. War begins with the leaders of nations lusting and convincing and using their people to fight for their sin of lust. Big money, capitalism, people who have the most to gain are those who exploit a Nation making war a business. Making a buck. The rich getting richer at the expense of their souls. These same people do not know God and lead nations to forget who God is, as they turn their back on God and His Word and guidance for a true Spiritually prosperous nation under God. When a Nation forgets to put God first and puts its own selfish desires first, then its people are left with skewed vision. Doing the right thing in our eyes is not the same as God's eyes, unless we are truly His.

The world is in the end times and the best anyone can do is to come to Jesus Christ as their Saviour, RIGHT NOW. Repent of all sin and ask God to forgive you and guide your life. To read the Word of God (especially Revelation if we want to know how it will end) and do His will in your life. Time is ticking folks, do you KNOW our God? Turn to God and be saved, be a faithful servant.
"If my people, which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14
JESUS SAVES
