Social Order.


Why we need Social Order.

Society was given to us by God, and we need to protect the social order that exists. Mankind needs just laws and order, so we can flourish as a community. When conflict occurs within our ordered society, we reflect the just nature of God by keeping peace, and keeping the order in a society. What makes a country great, and what keeps Canada free is the Justice that runs a nation. National peace and order comes from God, and mankind's ability to understand this and keep it. When we as a nation reject God, He intends His people to glorify Him.

Nations are kept safe by divine providence and protection and it is our responsibility to be good citizens. Society needs to seek the will of God, so that the Lord will protect our nation. It is our responsibility to remember God, because a nation without God will be a poor nation. The way we protect our sovereignty is by Glorifying God in our country. The bible should be honoured in every land where we want to live in freedom because the Lord rules this world. God's sovereignty is over all this creation, and He rewards and punishes people according to His Will. Governments should reflect the moral and natural laws found in the bible.

God seeks the happiness of His creation, but those who rebel against God's natural Creation will be judged by His wrath. Righteous men and women will stand in the resurrection because they accepted God's will for their lives. Even though the preservation of this earth is very important to the Lord, He is coming back to judge this world. At that time, there will be great distress for those left behind. Jesus said he is coming back and He will. So we must be ready as a church to welcome Him. We stand on the edge of eternity, and we don't know when, but we know it could be any moment. So live in a way, that when Jesus returns you will not be ashamed at his coming. "13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words." 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 | NIV

Catholic Identity.

  I was born into the Catholic Church and was baptized as an infant, I had my first communion and reconciliation as a child, and was confirmed as a teenager. Although I was never devout, I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour when I was 21 through an evangelical Christian radio ministry, which in turn gave new life to my Catholic faith. Although I remained a Catholic, I identified as a born again Christian. It wasn’t until much later in my life that I learned the difference between the two denominations and what they taught about being born again. Regardless, there was a significant change in my life back then, which continues to this day. Being Catholic is much like an identity to me and I remember growing up under the papacy of St. Pope John Paul II. The culture I grew up in was largely affected by his papacy, and the way the culture viewed the church was significantly different from the way the current culture views it. Growing up, the pope didn’t try to be rele...

Age of Brokenness.

  We are living in an age of brokenness, no matter what age you are, you probably have been touched with relationships falling apart, which causes more and more people to live in isolation. In this generation there is less of an incentive to heal and reconcile relationships, but that doesn’t excuse the amount of people who are broken. Why people don’t seem to be motivated to heal relationships is because our beliefs about faith and God have changed, really giving us less of an incentive to do what our religion says. If I act from my personal beliefs, but the person that I am responding to has abandoned religious beliefs, than the response to my wanting things to be better can be misinterpreted and rejected then by someone else. Generally when a society has expectations about broken relationships, loneliness and isolation, and the beliefs are generally accepted, society becomes a more compassionate society, because all value the same things. When religious values are undermined and ...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

  “Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17).   Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
