Something to think about before you read my message today. Dr. Jim Denison posted this today in his column:
The Roman Stoic philosopher Musonius Rufus’s observation is true to life:
If you accomplish something good with hard work, the labor passes quickly, but the good endures; if you do something shameful in pursuit of pleasure, the pleasure passes quickly, but the shame endures.
Where does God and a moral code fit into New Mexico? The state flag really should be flying upside down, in distress. The Church should be in mourning.
Billy Graham wrote in 2014: At the heart of the problem is the failure of parents in the home. Evangelist Billy Sunday once said, “If you want to lick the devil, hit him over the head with a cradle.” Parents today are not interested, apparently, in defeating the devil in the home. There seems to be little parental responsibility for discipline. Children are allowed to go wild.
I am really fed up with getting reports all the time in New Mexico being last in education and being the worst place to raise a family, I just posted on Jan. 8th: Continued Dysfunction In New Mexico. Ranked The Worst State to Raise a Family! AGAIN! Why do the people of New Mexico accept this? I have lived here since 1995, this losing streak continues. What a shame! What are the Churches of New Mexico doing to help God’s people turn these ugly situations around? How strong is your Sunday school program for children? Our children are the future of the Church and country. How many baptisims did your Church oversee in 2023?
How can God ever be happy with New Mexico?
The state also aborts God’s babies. Do the people of New Mexico really value God’s people? The Church seems very silent on this issue. I only have one life to live, just like you. I will die speaking up for all those that are getting killed and hurt in this state and nation.
I will not go to heaven with not standing strong for God’s people, all people. I do not care what the world thinks of me. I do not run a popularity contest. I am employed by a Jewish carpenter, I follow His lead. I am about God’s business, not mine. New Mexico and all of America, you better repent! Change your ways, the state has become very ungodly as has America.
I weep……………
New Study: New Mexico is the Least Educated State in the US
From Billy Graham in 2014:
Many Christian parents are becoming fearful that they cannot properly train their children in this lawless and wicked age. We have received scores of letters in our office asking, “What is the answer? What can I do with my son? My daughter?”
We are beginning to reap what has been sown for the past generation. We have taught the philosophy of the devil, who says, “Do as you please.” Behaviorism has been the moral philosophy of much of our education in the past few years. Psychiatrists have told parents to let their children do as they please, lest in restraining them they may warp the children’s personalities.
We have taken God out of our educational systems and thought we could get away with it. We have sown the wind, and we are now reaping the whirlwind. We have laughed at God, religion and the Bible.
Many of our educational leaders sneer at the old-fashioned idea of God and a moral code. Movies feature sex, sin, crime and alcohol. Teenagers see these things portrayed alluringly on the screen and decide to go and try them. Newspapers have played up crime and sex until they seem glamorous to our young people. More Here
