July 9th - Saturday - A Father Daughter/Son conference called PROTECTOR! Speakers on how to protect your son and daughter Emotionally, physically, sexually, socially and spiritually. Ages 10 and up if you feel your student is mature enough. Price $100 per family. At HillSpring Church New prague south of the Twin Cities

Just landed a speaker who will challenge you how to keep your kids safe from human trafficking… you say well my kid will never fall into that… oh not so fast. You obviously don’t know what you are talking about… so get ready to sign up! 

 

 

They used to scoff at the scriptures that said the earth would burn up and even melt in the end times… but they are not laughing now… we have these things called nuclear bombs - enough to blow up the earth 17 times from what I have read.

 

The psalmist said that the stars all sing a different song to the Lord… and it was thought to be fairytale language. And low and behold every star emits a different musical pitch… They are not laughing now.

And now we have graduated to the worldly wisdom that says you can have a penis and still choose to be a woman. You can be a woman and choose to be a Them or an it. You can choose to be genderless. Oh why of course you can in todays wisdom. 

 

 

1 Cor. 1:18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written:

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;
    the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”[c]

20 Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. 22 Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24 but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.

 

It just doesn’t make sense… I used to challenge kids to take a penny out of their pocket at taco bell and go to the bathroom and scrub it clean. While they were doing that I would take a penny and put it inside a full taco bell hot sauce packet. I would a few minutes later take out the penny and wipe it off with a napkin and it would look almost brand new. Many times Kids would accuse me of replacing the penny with a new one… Then I would challenge them to do it themselves and they would be shocked. Foolishness proved wisdom. In fact some of you today listening are going to do this because you doubt me…. please do and be shocked! 

 

In todays world I don’t try to convince people that Gods ways are better… but I do challenge them to at least try. I mean think about it… you are struggling financially and you can barely make it and I tell you to give some of your money to the church… how much? 10%… thats stupid, foolish and makes no sense… until you try it for a few months.

You tell me that man raped you and abused you and you want to get back at him and I tell you to forgive him (oh most certainly press charges… but still forgive him) and then I tell you to even pray that God blesses him and changes his heart… you scoff- never going to happen… but I challenge you to do the foolish thing and you are amazed at what happens to you, not just him.

 

I don’t know if you remember back in 2011 the US was looking for some heavy terrorist operatives and were guilty of massive destruction of life and liberty. They were in fact war crime criminals in the highest degree… they US said they had crawled into caves in mountains and were almost impossible to find, let alone the danger to our soldiers not knowing the territory… and lo and behold it started to rain… and rain and rain and they had to come out of the mountains like rats from a sinking ship leading to the arrest and capture of some of the vile men in the world… 

 

How you gonna do it God? I think I will make it rain… silly almost foolish… but effective. 

 

If there are areas in your life that do not line up with scripture.. you are sleeping with your girlfriend, you don’t tithe, you don’t serve, you hold bitterness etc… it is actually just you being a very very wise man… in the worlds eyes… but a complete fool in Gods. So why not step over into the foolishness side of God and watch what real wisdom can do in a persons life.
