The 'Hypocrisy' of the Bullet, the Use of the Bible, and the (so-called) Believers... The Supreme Choice 2024 — JUST GOD: No Brands... No Labels...

'When the Culture is Corrupt... So Are the People.'   See previous article for Culturicity reference.

Hy·poc·ri·sy is defined as the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's behavior does not conform; pretense.

As you look at the title of this blog, think about this word (hypocrisy). Think… hypocrisy must end, and it must end, NOW! Here are the three areas that we see it and at the end of this post, you and I will know when it has ceased.

  1. The Bullet, though deadly, it has no personality. It flows to a target given aim by a person/group/team/army who is guided or misguided when triggering such action or actions. The bullet can be discharged with guns or tongues. Both have the power to kill. Most often we kill one another with our tongues. The hate, the lies, false witnessing, etc., are killing us daily at the highest levels, but who's reporting this? Not the news media. Today we are saying political violence, tomorrow it's domestic or other descriptions. Violence on any front is wrong, must be called out, and mitigated.

So often we question the motive of the shooter(s) and leave out the cause which is mostly based on the culture that a person lives in. When the culture is corrupt and contaminated, most often so are the people. The hypocrisy of the bullet too often focuses on the direction and person(s) from whence the bullet came and not the cause(s) that ignite the motive to kill, harm or endanger.

  1. The (misuse of) the Bible: The Bible is what people in the USA recognize as the book that contains the holy writings that convey the Word of God for those whom He created. In short, persons who profess to be Christians and Believers of the God of the Bible say that his Word is a lamp unto their feet and a light unto their pathway. This same book references the God in whom this nation vows to be under His will, laws, and government. When we become hearers of the Word and not doers of the Word, this is hypocrisy.
  2. The (so-called) Believer(s). These are those who confess a relationship/commitment to serve/obey the laws and practices contained in the biblical outline. Up front, the main law is to love. It is the law that God is defined by in scripture. God is Love. It further adds that we are to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. The (so-called) Believers are the people who also find ways to detach and dismiss these same laws and principles when it's convenient to disconnect when personal, corporate, class, prejudice, and supremacy along with all other motives and benefits provide gain, status, greed and self-preservation of sustaining lifestyles. These (so-called) Believers simply house themselves inside political parties as well as denominational doctrines that allow them to deviate from biblical adherence at their leisure. This is hypocrisy.

Today we are seeing yet another bullet mass shooting moment in our nation. Yes, it's the time when such tragedies bring a people, a nation, and a world to a screeching halt. But why? How much of this is hypocrisy?

And sadly, this is where hypocrisy gets its licensures.

This post challenges all of US(A) to look at the long-term hypocrisy when we talk about the bullets (whether guns or tongues) that we continue to fire at one another. It happens.

But why is it that only when it hits certain people at certain times do we pause and start the prayer calls and assemblies? I say this is hypocrisy. Yet, God is still talking using the foolish things to confound the wise. We come together for a time in unity rally’s, etc. But so short-lived. I say it’s time to end the hypocrisy. Yes, a God-transformation back to true love.

WHY IS REV. DR. MLK IN THIS POST?

56 years ago, there was a bullet that landed on the face of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., which led to his death. Was it the bullet that killed him or was it the corrupt culture of this country and its country men who created the environment for such a tragedy to come forth? Have we rectified the wrong by changing the culture? Who can get cleaned in dirty bath water? The tank and culture of America needs a cleansing from God.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is the only Pastor/Minister with a National Monument on the National Mall. All other Memorials are Presidents and War Memorials. He is the only minister with a Federal Holiday. His role as a minister is significant as we talk the hypocrisy concerns and matters. We must gather in DC for a GOD Cleansing as a Nation.

It's my tribute to God's use of him as a biblical rights leader, I illustrate by referencing athletes who have sneakers and jerseys to represent their sport. Dedicating a Bible in honor of Rev. King, represents him as a servant of God as a pastor/prophet. The Bible points us to the genesis of his calling. He was activating God's Word.

As the producer of the first three years of the MLK Federal Holiday from Memphis, beginning in 1989, honoring Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., included the Opening Tribute for the National Civil Rights Museum. (I have been around long enough to know hypocrisy when I see it.) No, not so that I can be happy to call it out, no more than a medical doctor enjoys giving a diagnosis of a critical disease or condition to a patient. It is to bring attention so that knowledge and treatment can bring about transformation and remedy.

Rev. MLK was assassinated on April 4, 1968. The day before he was assassinated, he delivered his final Prophecy on April 3, "I've Seen the Promised Land." He was not talking about Heaven. He was talking about a land in the USA that flows with milk and honey. This means a land well-nourished and with sweet/pleasant and delightful communities. A place and culture of love. 56 years later... are we there yet? Can we possess it? Can we make it demonstrative and not hypocritical? April 3, 1968, was the most powerful moment of his final days. Can we be the ones who work to bring the prophecy to promise fulfillment? This was the most powerful moment of his final days. Can we be the ones who work to bring the prophecy to promise fulfillment?

Each year on the third Monday in January, people (less now than in the nineties) put on a one-day show/tribute and then go right back to the same segregated and cultural dysfunctions.

This post is to take us deeper into what happens in these moments but not without a cure/remedy to get us our hope and healing.

What Do We Do? Start Here:

  1. Be true to the Bible. No matter what your Political Party or Denomination, Corporation, etc., has to say about a subject matter, if it deviates from biblical laws, then so do you/we/us. If we are going to be Believers... Be one on Sunday-Sunday and not only in the houses of worship. Be willing to go the distance and not just through term limits. Just God: No Brands… No Labels.
  2. Leave the denominations, brands, and labels outside of the 'Sovereign Space' that belongs to God. There is no Black Church, White Church, Hispanic, etc., Church. In the beginning, there were no denominations. It was God and His Creation. His Church, the Church that Jesus built. When 'We the People' (of God) all come together as ONE, it will surprise the nation what this strength and POWER OF ONENESS could bring forth. We may see the emergence of a President who puts God above country, political party, denomination, etc.
  3. HOW DO WE KNOW WE HAVE DEFEATED HYPOCRISY?

We don't need to pretend during crisis moments that we love God, and that we love one another, etc., to pacify ourselves, protecting our brands and labels thus exposing the true characteristics of our cultural dysfunctions. The prayers are important, the speeches can be too. But do not do them for show or self-aggrandizement.

The Bible teaches that there is One Lord, One Faith, and One Baptism. Why is it taking so long for US(A) to figure this out and make the move to unite as ONE?

Let's get out of these constructs/parties/denominations that delay and hold us back from being the true expression of the prayer we pray so often.... "Thy Kingdom Come... Thy Will be Done... In Earth as It is in Heaven.”

HOW DO WE KNOW HYPOCRISY HAS ENDED?

When we see the denominations uniting and dropping the brands and labels, when we see political parties and superPAC’s giving millions of dollars (instead of asking people who don’t have it to give) to poverty-housed people and neighborhoods, national days of prayer and community uplift and initiatives that directly transform the culture from poverty to prosperity, from hate to love for all mankind,  only then will we no longer need to say…

The Hypocrisy of the Bullet, the Use of the Bible, and the (so-called) Believers... Cultural Hypocrisy Must Cease — JUST GOD: No Brands... No Labels

Let's all meet up soon in DC this fall at the JUST GOD: No Brands... No Labels... Declaration Day. Stay tuned at: www.justgod.today.

AMERICA: God is Going to Show Up Whether We Come to Our Senses or Not: Our Culture is Corrupt... The Culture Must Return to Model the Creator!

 The Need for CULTURICITY

CULTURICITY, pronounced ‘Cul-tur-re-ci-ty’ is the state of the Culture of the City, Country, Nation, and World.

Watching and tuning-in to elections in our present-day, sounds like a boxing match is being promoted. God forbid. Where is the motivation to do a national search for who can lead us best? What about a godly leader who stands for 'biblical rights'? No, not constitutional, or civil rights when they are clearly 'biblical' wrongs. Where is the concept of honor, and dignity? Who's looking to not walk in the council of the ungodly? It's nowhere in the conversation... until now. It has taken a mass shooting and the landing of a bullet in the face of a former President who was at a campaign rally to get our attention. But for how long? And how do we gaze through the trails of hypocrisy?

July 13, 2024: The nation is seeing a true reflection of the culture in our country. It's not just the man in the mirror, it's the whole nation and in fact, it's the entire world. It's so far from the Creator that it could be easy to ask, "Are we truly a nation under God?" But the answer would not be so pleasant. No, we are not. At least for sure, we are not acting like it.

A house divided, a nation divided, a people divided against themselves CAN NOT STAND.

No need to write a long post or even pray a long prayer or prayers. We need only to look at the biblical outline and look up the word, 'love' and ask ourselves the question, 'America' what has happened to our love?

The answer is clear. We have left our first love. Yes, the God of love and who wants nothing more than for his creation to exemplify it. Herein lies the problem.

Who am I? I'm one of many who know that it's time to drop the brands and labels and get back to the JUST GOD: No Brands... No Labels... that has been here since the beginning.

I'm from Arkansas but am concerned about what's happening from Arkansas Across America. Mass shootings are happening way too often. Violence on any level must not be tolerated.

I leave a biblical passage for what we are looking at today in a prayerful hope that we can see our way back to God.

Romans 1:21-25

King James Version

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Shame on US(A): Our Culture is Corrupt— But Not Without Hope... 3 C's That Reshape our World. Who's Ready?

 WE THE PEOPLE {OF GOD}

Here's the day's question. What has happened to our sense of civility, dignity and respect? No, not the current display that is highly disturbing, but how did we get here and what is the remedy that gives us hope? Let's start from the beginning. It is a 3 'C' Progression opportunity for those who choose to opt in. My prayer is that we all will to make the world a better place for us all.

  1. Everyone enters into the world as a 'C' Child. Only two people from the biblical outline were created as full adults. Everyone else has come and will come into the world born as a child. Nobody can change this.
  2. Everyone grows up in a Community/Cultural environment. This is where we learn the culture that is correct or corrupt. From food to fashion, religion to relationships often become products of what happens in our community and cultural engagements. We only eat certain foods, dress a certain way, relate to others in certain ways, etc. Is this community/culture always correct? Not. Unfortunately, we often grow up seeing things and being things that are incorrect and sometimes corrupt. For many persons, this cultural disorder, disconnect, and dysfunction stays with them for multiple generations and some, a lifetime. This shows up in many spheres and areas of our lives. And these things are opposite to what God has ordained and desired for His Creation. A quick look at this is located in the biblical records.
  3. Everyone has the opportunity to know ‘C’ Christ. Here lies the key to transformation and getting the Culture right or in the right standing. So, it's not your fault. But it is your choice. Christ came to be the model/example of what love and compassion, and how faith in God is paramount to living a life according to how the Creator intended. A life that emphasizes that we should do unto others as we would desire them to do unto us.

Communities and cultures from small towns to large towns and metropolitan cities and throughout the world are full of cultures and communities that are full of corrupt vices, habits and administrations that continue to be off course.

We are seeing this corrupt culture way too much. It’s not fair to the GEN X, Y, Z and forthcoming generations to see this on display. Who is he or she that is willing to stand up to cultural dysfunction and disorder to get it right and keep it right? This is the summation of this post.

The strong message here is that we all ought to endeavor to be more like Christ. Sounds simple and it is. But it’s a work that takes discipline and commitment to bring it to fulfillment. It requires us to put away childish things. The things that were introduced to us in our various cultural experiences.

This 3rd 'C...' Christ, is missing in our homes, educational institutions, community, culture, government, nation, our churches and our world. We will not see a difference until Christ is the declared truth and answer. Period.

Join me and the many others in the remnant who are on a journey to bring about the change. It's JUST GOD: No Brands... No Labels. We as a people (of God), cannot allow this space to be contaminated or cluttered with man-made ideas, constructs and operations.

One upcoming moment is set for June.
