Is the Darkness a Part of the Light?

There is no darkness in God, but that doesn't mean He doesn't use it for purposes for good. In a real sense God has a mind, and that mind is full of love, God is a Spirit and He is love. You can say that God has a conscience and that mind is found in the word of God. When evil prevails in the world, the way back is to follow the light and the truth. Behind the veil of light is darkness, the unknown about God that He hasn't revealed to humanity. The darkness hides His presence, the light manifests it. The darkness that hides God's glory is a part of His consciousness. God never changes and hides Himself so to speak from the mind that has rejected Him. The bible calls the darkness a covering, where the Lord comes to send His judgement into the world.

When God gave the Ten Commandments to the present day, the Lord is the same. Darkness cannot hide the light, and it cannot cover the light. When people suppress the truth, the darkness expands, but as this happens the candle of the Lord's Presence is just as real and available as it always is. Opening up to the door of the light of God, just takes a crack, just a little bit of light and truth in a room can light up the whole room. You see this when you light a candle in a dark room.

We can see the darkness in moments of history where there was great evil, or moments in our lives where we were terrorised. There never comes a time when the light is fully extinguished in this life, because in order for darkness to exist the presence of truth must exist in order to defeat it. Jesus Christ is the embodiment of truth and light in this world, and His presence puts away the darkness for good. He defeated the darkness completely by his death on the cross, and continues to defeat the darkness by His life in Heaven. One day he will come back to this earth to manifest His full Glory and to save those who are waiting for Him. Even though darkness was completely defeated by Jesus Christ, we can live in a dark world sometimes, and when we do, we can constantly open the door to Jesus, and let the light in. This is Mike.

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 Parable of the Ten Virgins.

Matthew 25:1-13 I have discovered a remarkable interpretation of this parable that I would like to share with you. The story in the Bible goes like this: “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ 9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy som...

The Existence of God

Since the beginning of time, man has learned about the existence of God. It began in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve walked and talked with God, however when they sinned, they died spiritually and their closeness with God was severed. In Genesis 4:26 it reads “Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.” Seth was the third son of Adam and Eve, so it’s fair to say that not too long after mankind fell, we also called upon the Lord. From that time until now, mankind was closer to God then, but it’s a modern shift that the world is in the state it is in now, mainly unbelief, because even 30 years ago from now, mankind was closer to God. It is also true that in ancient Israel’s history, there have been generations that fell away and forgot God, but in the time of the prophets Israel was never left without a word from the Lord. Many generations have come and gone, but there have been remarkable generations all thr...
