A Vitally Important Question For The MAGA Movement To Answer

 

President Trump has been credited for being the creator, founder, and leader of the MAGA movement and for the slogan, “Make America Great Agan” but still, the question is being asked, “What Is MAGA?” and how does it stand apart from other political movements?
 
As a piece from the Gateway Pundit observed, the MAGA movement platform, in summary consists of the following: “citizens come first, borders matter, sovereignty matters. Rights come from God, not government. Communities and families need room to exist without constant pressure from centralized authority” [1]
 
That stands in contrast to the anti-Christ party which believes that our rights come from men and not God,
who do not believe that borders matter,
who put foreigners before citizens,
who would sell away our sovereignty,
and who would infringe upon the autonomy of communities and families.
 
There is clearly an ideological warfare within our country and one that has been going on for at least a century; it is just that it has intensified in recent decades but it isn’t just the anti-Christ Democrats, Islamists, globalists, and Communists with whom MAGA is at war.  It is also against the RINO faction of the GOP and while many within the GOP may be in agreement with the MAGA philosophy, Gregory Lyakhov, the writer of the Gateway Pundit piece wishes to make a few things clear to his readers:
 
 
 
MAGA is not the Republican Party; it’s a worldview. The GOP is an institution.
One is bottom-up; the other is top-down.
 
One grows from citizens demanding accountability and national cohesion; the other grew around predictable networks, donors, and consultants.
 
Treating them as interchangeable only hides the real story of American politics: voters are not flocking to the GOP establishment. They are flocking to the ideas that MAGA revived.
 
MAGA resonates because its principles match America’s founding philosophy, not the modern GOP’s institutional habits.
 
Government answers to the people, not the other way around…
 
The GOP establishment was never built for that kind of realignment. Its incentives reward stability, predictability, and negotiated power.
 
MAGA demands accountability, disruption when necessary, and a renewed focus on the people who actually live in the country. This is why the two often clash.
 
The GOP relies on consultants; MAGA relies on voters. The GOP builds around institutions; MAGA challenges institutions that no longer function.
 
The GOP’s instinct is to manage politics. MAGA’s instinct is to change its direction. [2]
 
 
 
 
In analyzing what the writer just said, for those of you who may be wondering as to how MAGA is a grass roots movement when the acronym and movement are credited to Donald Trump, Trump may very well be credited for the acronym, but what most don’t realize is that he was not the inventor of the slogan “Make America Great Again.” It actually originated with Ronald Reagan during his 1980 Presidential campaign against Jimmy Carter [3] and was later forgotten until Donald Trump revived the slogan and made it mainstream to this day but the philosophy upon which the MAGA movement stands was not an invention of either Reagan or Trump, but goes back even further and its most essential tenets go back even centuries before the MAGA movement even existed and in order to understand that, that would require going back to the early days of the nation and maybe even before that to receive insight into how the groundwork was laid for the tenets and philosophy upon which the MAGA movement rests but for the movement, it is not just about “Making America Great Again” but also returning the nation and the governing system of the nation to what the founders had intended.
 
MAGA did not appear just all of a sudden as it is a product of the Tea Party movement which was a grassroots movement founded in 2009.  Many think that the efforts of the Tea Party movement had been thwarted and crushed by the GOP establishment, but nothing could be further from the truth as the Tea Party movement was the morning star and precursor to the MAGA movement itself. 
 
If it had not been for the Tea Party movement, there would have been no MAGA movement and no Donald Trump in the White House at any given time.  I doubt many within the MAGA movement realize just how much they owe to the Tea Party Movement and it is the Tea Party movement which makes the MAGA movement a grassroots movement because it is the Tea Party movement out of which the MAGA movement sprung and the same philosophy upon which the Tea Party movement is also the same philosophy upon which MAGA stands and which centralized figures such as Donald Trump have championed; the essential tenets of both movements being very much the same.
 
Both the Tea Party and MAGA movements believe that the government answers to the people not the other way around.
Both believe that the government is supposed be a government for the people and by the people.
Both believe in a strong private sector, low taxes, and minimal regulation.
Both believe in a strong national defense which includes secure borders.
Both believe in the removal of as many illegal immigrants as can be found and especially the removal hostile foreign agents including criminals and terrorists.
Both demand government transparency.
Both believe in the preservation of national sovereignty and are opposed to globalism.
Both hold to an individualistic philosophy
Both believe our rights come from God and not from any earthly power and that our Constitution was designed to protect and uphold these God given rights.
Both movements have not only had to contend with the anti-Christ DEM party, but also with the RINO establishment wing of the GOP.
 
The same distinctions between MAGA and the RINO wing of the GOP are the same as what distinguished the Tea Party movement from the RINO wing of the GOP as well which then leads into the rest of the distinctions between the GOP and MAGA that Layakhov listed in his piece:
 
“The GOP relies on consultants; MAGA relies on voters”
 
The Tea Party relied on voters as well instead of consultants.
 
“MAGA demands accountability, disruption when necessary, and a renewed focus on the people who actually live in the country”
 
So did the Tea Party
 
“The GOP’s instinct is to manage politics. MAGA’s instinct is to change its direction.”
 
The Tea Party did not want politics to be managed as usual either but also wanted a change in the course of the political arena as well and it was their efforts in doing so that gave rise to the MAGA movement.  It just took the right person to breathe new life and energy into the commitment and devotion to the philosophy and tenets that both the Tea Party and MAGA movements rest.
 
“MAGA resonates because its principles match America’s founding philosophy, not the modern GOP’s institutional habits”
 
Which is what made the Tea Party movement, which essentially became the MAGA movement, a successful movement and will continue to be successful, if the people of the movement continue to keep it successful which is why when we vote, we are not to be rallying behind a political party or figure as political parties can fail and turn against us and political figures can betray us, disgrace themselves, or can even be taken away from us by an untimely death, but rather we need to be rallying every time behind the ideas and philosophy upon which the MAGA movement rests because the ideas and philosophy upon which the movement rests will never fail us and will always be beneficial to our nation but it is just a matter of getting the right people in the right positions of power to implement, enforce, and keep in place, the policy changes that are in agreement with the MAGA philosophy and platform and that is not something that can necessarily be done in just one election cycle; it may take several election cycles to get those right people in those right positions who are committed to advancing, enforcing, and maintaining MAGA policies and as long as we continue to turn out for the MAGA platform and creed, eventually, we will have those right people in the places they need to be to bring about those desired and beneficial policy changes that are needed and to maintain and uphold those beneficial laws and policies already in place but it takes a lot more than just going out to vote; it takes a committed effort to win hearts and minds over to the MAGA creed and philosophy and that requires a lot of ground level field work and engaging the populace and granted that we may not be able to prevail with all, we will still prevail with changing the hearts and minds for the better of some if we will be but committed to doing so but if we allow ourselves to be demoralized when our elected officials show themselves to not be as committed to the establishment, implementation, enforcing, and upholding of MAGA-aligned policies or become discouraged when there be those we encounter who refuse to open their hearts and minds to the philosophy and tenets of the MAGA platform, it is at that moment that the movement will fail.
 
It is not the sole duty of any centralized figure to maintain the energy of the movement, it is the duty of all who are a part of the movement to maintain the energy and enthusiasm thereof and I believe that the greatest test of the movement will be whether it can continue on without the guidance of a centralized figure.
 
Inasmuch as we all love our President and appreciate the good that he has done for this nation and is still trying to do, there is a certain reality that we have to accept, and that is Donald Trump is not going to be in the White House forever; his time is limited there and neither will he be able to abide on the earth with us forever either as eventually, just as it is with everyone else who is born into this world, he is going to pass away from this life which I pray will be a peaceful passing when that day comes but he will leave a lot behind for us to work with and utilize but the sooner the movement learns to function and operate without relying on the guidance and leadership of a centralized figure, the better.  What we need to solely rely on are the foundational values, tenets, and philosophy upon which the movement rests as these proven themselves to be faultless and without corruption and are not subject to failure but it is so vitally important that we understand as to what these virtues and tenets are and what the philosophy is upon which the MAGA movement rest.  If the movement is to survive and thrive beyond Trump, it needs to find its energy, life, and identity in the values, tenets, and philosophy upon which it rests.  It needs to get used to looking at new faces within its leadership from time to time as leaders come and go and in every generation there comes what we might call a passing of the guard.  Leaders may pass away or step aside, but the ideas and philosophy that should define the MAGA movement and shape its identity will never pass away or die as long as there are people in this nation and on the earth who continue to believe in them and that is the thing about ideas.  Just because the persons to whom ideas are accredited pass away or are thrown into a prison or are even killed, that does not necessarily mean the ideas associated and accredited to them pass away and in some cases, those ideas are even given greater strength and power after the passing of those to whom they were accredited than they ever were while the persons to whom they were accredited were yet alive and with us.
 
But the greatest dangers to any given movement are apathy, complacency, cowardice, and laziness as it takes diligence to maintain a movement, it takes a zealous commitment to the ideals upon which it was founded which spurs the diligence needed to maintain the movement, and in order for the integrity and identity of that movement to be preserved, vigilance is required in ensuring that the movement is never removed from the philosophy, tenets, and virtues upon which it was once established which requires an ongoing effort in ensuring that those tenets, virtues, and philosophy are preserved and upheld which then requires a commitment to accountability within the ranks of its members and my greatest fear for MAGA is that after the era of Trump is over, the movement is going to fall into a state of complacency and yet I pray that it will not be so for as the times grow darker, movements like the MAGA movement need to stay alive more than ever before because if we grow apathetic and complacent and lose our enthusiasm and motivation it is then the enemy comes to recapture ground and territory that was lost and it is then when we lose ground that we have gained.
 
The time has grown far too critical for us to become complacent, lazy, cowardly, and apathetic because if we do, we may reach a point where it may be impossible to regain any ground that is taken, at least through the political process that is but this is not merely a political battle we wage, nor is it a battle of academics, or economics.  It is not even a social or culture war that is being waged but goes far deeper than that:  Of all the tenets within the MAGA platform, the most foundational of them is that our rights come from God and not men, whereas the foundational tenet of the anti-Christ Democrat party is that our rights come from man and from government instead of God.
 
It is no coincidence that the very same people who demand that women share their designated facilities with men pretending to be something that they are not and to allow them to become part of their respective athletics and organizations without regard for the safety of women nor for the identity and integrity of their athletics and respective organizations, who wantonly dispose of innocent life, who pervert young minds with damnable indoctrinations, who undermine parental authority, who subject children to consequential and harmful medical procedures, riot in the streets, call for unwarranted violence against their political opponents, who call for the censorship and silencing of those who dissent from the preferred and official narratives, who scare us with fictitious climate change, who frightened people into unnecessary lockdowns in the name of containing a virus with a mortality rate lower than that of the flu and into taking potentially hazardous substances into their bodies to protect themselves from this virus, and who claim the nonsense of there being more than two genders, and that men can become women and women can become men, are the same ones who deny the existence of God and claim that we are nothing more than products of time and random processes, who tell us to believe in the Genesis account of origins is foolishness, who eliminated prayer and scripture reading from the public schools, who have fought to keep theistic religious influence out of the public square, and who consistently assault our rights to live in accordance to the dictates of our respective faiths and consciences and it should be no coincidence that when God became less and less a part of our culture that we should be experiencing a moral and spiritual decline, increasing unrest and instability, an increase in civic and corporate corruption, frequent assaults against our God-given liberties, increased vulnerability to foreign hostiles, rampant deceitfulness and falsehoods being taught in our academic institutions, propagated by our media, and affirmed in our entertainment industry, increased hopelessness, despair, and confusion, and a rising spiritual darkness.
 
The source of a nation’s greatness is not in its economy as that can fail.
It is not in our academic institutions or media as those can lead multitudes astray and poison their minds, hearts, and souls with all sorts of lies.
It is not in our entertainment industry as that can be used to demoralize instead of inspire and can be used to affirm and celebrate all sorts of depravity, evil, and wickedness.
It is not in our private and corporate sector as these things can exploit and defraud us.
It is not in our civic institutions as these things can be agents of evil and tyranny.
And it is not in our law enforcement apparatus, judicial, system, or military as these things can be turned against us.
 
The source of a nation’s greatness is in the God who established it for there is no nation or kingdom on earth that exists that He did not establish or permit which is why I have said that it should be no coincidence that the acronym MAGA should stand not just for “Make America Great Again” but also for “Make America Godly Again” as it should be sign to us all that the two go hand in hand which is why before we can even think about seeking things like security, stability, and affordability, and before we even seek out the academic, social, economic, and political freedoms, we must seek first the Kingdom of Heaven for when we begin to earnestly and sincerely seeking out first the things of Heaven, it is then we are promised that all these things will be added to us (Mt. 6:33) for it is God alone who is the source and provider of all the things that we need and who is the source of the freedoms and liberties that we hold dear and the freedom that He offers us is one that begins not from without but begins from within because tyranny began took place from within before it became manifested from without and we were first bound with invisible chains before we became bound with chains visible but God never intended for anyone to live in bondage because when He created the world, He created it to be a world filled with peace, happiness, and contentment and in which existed a perfect and uninterrupted harmony between God, man, and nature but that all changed when the source and author of tyranny, bondage, and oppression crept into the newly formed world and deceived the first man Adam and the first woman Eve into doing something of great and unprecedented consequence which persists to this day and that was the eating of a fruit from a tree called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil which they had been forbidden to do, having been warned of God that in the day that they ate thereof, they would surely die (Gen. 2:16-17, 3:3) but through the false promises of receiving something better than what God had already given them and falsely assuring them that they would not surely die as they had been warned, that spirit of all tyranny and oppression succeeded in persuading that first couple to eat of that forbidden fruit (Gen. 3:4-5) and when they ate of this forbidden fruit, they did not receive the better things that they were promised by the serpent but were reduced to an inferior status than the one in which they were first created (Gen. 3:7) and the sentence of death came upon them just as they had been warned (Gen. 3:19) because when they ate of that forbidden fruit, sin entered into them and with sin came death because it is in sin that death has its power and so thus as a consequence for their disobedience, Adam and Eve were subjugated to an unprecedented tyranny and it was a tyranny of sin and death from which spring forth all other tyrannies because sin and death did not stop with Adam and Eve as both were passed down to all of mankind for all of us are descendants of that first man and that first woman and because we are their descendants, we have also inherited the sin that entered into them (Rom. 5:12) and because of that sin which we have inherited, we all sin in some form or fashion and as a consequence we all die for as it is written, the wages of sin is death (Rom. 6:23) but sin is not merely confined to outward behavior or performance or even the words we speak, but it is rather the inherent inward corruption of our very nature defiling our thoughts, hardening and darkening our hearts, and corrupting our very motives which is why it is written that we are not defiled from that which comes from without, but that which comes from within (Mt. 15:11, 18-20) and which is why it is written that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23) which demands of us nothing less than moral perfection and not just in our outward acts but also in our inward as well which is why it is impossible by our own efforts and our own goodness to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, for sin taints, corrupts, defiles, twists, and distorts more than we can comprehend and the effects of sin are not merely confined to mankind, but all of creation is subjected to a curse because of sin which is why it is written that the entire creation groans and travails in pain to this day. (Rom. 8:19-22)
 
That lying spirit of tyranny and oppression who led Adam and Eve into the transgression with the deceitful promise of better things that never came to pass but brought upon them the opposite when they ate of that fruit was once a certain covering cherub named Lucifer who had once served at the throne of God until he had become so lifted up in his pride and conceit that he thought he could make himself equal unto God and have for himself glory that was reserved for God alone and as a consequence, he and all who sided with him were cast from their places in Heaven (Is. 14:11-21, Ezek. 28:12-19) and what they were unable to achieve in Heaven, they sought to achieve on the earth.  And it was in that day that Lucifer had become known as Satan or the Devil and what he could not accomplish in Heaven, he by way of causing the transgression was able to accomplish on the earth and he did so with a lie; the lie that Adam and Eve would not surely die and the lie that the forbidden fruit would make them essentially divine and it was with that lie that the first tyranny from which all other tyrannies and oppressions came into being: The tyranny of sin and death and it began with a lie, and it was that very lie that made Satan the father of lies (Jn. 8:44) as it was the first known lie ever known and that lie also made Satan a murderer (v. 44) because by that lie, he brought sin and death into the world and to all of mankind by the transgression he caused Adam and Eve to commit, and it was by that lie he was also made a thief (Jn. 10:10) because he used the transgression of Adam and Eve to justify claiming lordship over all the nations, kingdoms, and empires of the earth, (Mt. 4:8-9, Lk. 4:6-7) which is why he is called the prince of this world (Jn. 12:31, 16:11) and not only is he a thief, he is also that thief who comes to steal kill and destroy and it is so reflected by the amount of death, destruction, suffering, and wickedness that we see in the world today for this is the nature of his claimed lordship over the nations, kingdoms, and people of the earth and it was in the day of the transgression that the age-long war between God and Satan which began in Heaven became the war for the minds, hearts, and souls of men and thus arose the age-long war between the Spirit of freedom which is God and the spirit of tyranny and oppression which is Satan and this war between liberty and tyranny does not begin with carnal warfare, but begins within the mind, heart, and soul of every person on the earth and often times, people are brought into tyranny and captivity, not by way of a forceful takeover, but through lies, subtlety, deceit, and the offer of things better than what they already have; even the illusion of a greater freedom than what they already have only to find that once having fallen for the false promises of better things, they find themselves in a bondage and captivity that they could never have imagined and once the agents of tyranny assume power and acquire captives, they will not relinquish that power or those whom they have taken captive without a fight and because tyranny is founded upon lies, they will do all that they can in their power to suppress anything that challenges the lies upon which they built their power and if need be and silence the voices of anyone who would dare dissent from the lies that the tyrannical powers would have their subjects and captives believe because if the lies upon which they built their power are successfully discredited in the hearts and minds of those whom they have taken captive, then their power over them is broken because if tyranny begins with a lie within the heart and mind, then freedom also begins within the heart and mind as well and it begins with truth which is why it is written that it is the truth which sets free (Jn. 8:32) and the truth that sets free is that God is not willing that any should perish in their sins and face eternal damnation, (2 Pet. 3:9) but that all would come to repentance so that one day all of their tears and griefs will be wiped away and the brokenness of their hearts may be mended and in His love, mercy, and compassion for us, He has done for us what we could never do for ourselves in that He, in His graciousness has purchased redemption on our behalf in Christ Jesus, His only begotten Son, (Jn. 3:16) who came to us in the flesh, (Jn. 1:14) and being without any sin (2 Cor. 5:21) was made that perfect sacrifice (Heb. 7:26-27) that was needed to take away the sins of the world and because of His perfect goodness, He was able to offer Himself up on our behalf to satisfy the demanded penalty for all sin and granting mercy and grace through the shedding of His blood on the cross and after having died, rose again from the dead three days later that we might be justified in Him (Rom. 4:25) if we will but call upon His name so that we might be saved from what would otherwise be a terrifying everlasting punishment if we will but call upon His name (Rom. 10:9, 13) and believe in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead (Rom. 10:9) for it is by calling upon His name in sincere repentance that salvation is granted and our souls made clean from sin thereby liberating us from the threat of eternal damnation and with that cleansing comes a new spiritual transformation (2 Cor. 5:17) that causes us to no longer desire to follow after selfish and worldly pursuits but after those things that pertain to the Kingdom of Heaven,
to no longer take pleasure in those things that are evil and displeasing in the sight of the Lord, but in that which is good, right, and pleasing in His sight,
to no longer desire to walk in the lies of this present world, but only in the truth that comes from Christ Almighty who is the source of all truth, (Jn. 14:6)
no longer placing our hopes in the things of this present world, but looking forward to that new and better world to come, (Rev. 21-22)
to no longer rely on worldly resources, men, or even our own power, abilities, skills, and wisdom for our needs and provision but upon God who is able to meet all of our needs, recognizing that the resources of this world and even the people He brings into our lives are but instruments and vessels through which God meets our needs and that the skills, power, knowledge, and wisdom by which we might acquire our provision are provided and instilled in us by God, (Mt. 6:25-33)
to no longer fear what men can do to us, but rather fearing the God before whom we will have to one day give an account for how we lived our lives, (Mt. 10:28)
to no longer look to corruptible institutions within our society for direction and order in our lives but to God who, by His written Word has given us laws and precepts to be applied to our lives and which serve to produce and maintain an ordered life, and who, by His Holy Spirit which comes to dwell within us upon repentance, establishes in our lives a course and direction in our lives to pursue for His glory,
to no longer seek our own glory but the glory of God,
to no longer rally behind corruptible men, but instead behind the incorruptible God in Heaven bearing in mind that those men and women God raises up for our edification are but instruments and servants of His for that respective purpose to which He has called them,
to no longer seek to align ourselves with the things of darkness but only with the things of the light,
to no longer trust in the wisdom of the world but only on the wisdom and knowledge that comes from above, (Jas. 1:5) nor depend on corruptible earthly authorities to swiftly administer justice, but only in the power of God to deliver us from evil.
 
And it is this new inward transformation that reconciles us to our Creator (2 Cor. 5:18) from whom we had once been estranged and just as our souls are cleansed from sin and our spirits regenerated in Christ Jesus thereby liberating us from the eternal tormenting punishment that must come upon all who remain in their sins, so one day we look forward to the liberation of our bodies from death itself when our mortal and corruptible forms are transformed into that which is immortal and incorruptible and from that which is imperfect to that which is perfect (1 Cor. 15:51-55, 1 Thess. 4:13-18) and lastly, creation itself will be delivered from the curse placed upon it because of sin when it is made into a new and better world (Rev. 21-22) and liberated from the hand of our adversary Satan, who presently claims dominion, when he is given his final sentence and cast into an everlasting tormenting fire prepared for him and his followers (Mt. 25:41, Rev. 20:10-15) and in that new world which will be made, there will be no sin, no death, no decay, nor any curse, nor any evil, or violence, suffering, misery, grief, sorrow, mourning, pain, or hardship of any sort for all of these will pass away with this present world.  Instead, there will only be light, life, happiness, joy, contentment, peace, and rest before the Lord God Almighty.
 
But through various devices, Satan has continued and still continues to fight against the spreading of the good news of the Gospel in order to hold as many of the captives that he has taken in bondage and he does so by blinding them to their spiritual bondage with lies and in blinding them to their spiritual bondage, he also blinds them to their need for redemption and salvation and he tirelessly does all in his power to suppress anything that challenges the lies by which he has poisoned the minds and hearts of many and to hide and suppress anything that might lead souls to the knowledge of the truth by which freedom and true freedom begins (Jn. 8:32) and what he cannot destroy from without, he will infiltrate and corrupt and destroy from within and that is exactly what he has done inside the body of Christ.  He has infiltrated the Church, not always in forms so obvious, but he has also infiltrated in the form of charming, desirable looking,  clean-cut, well-dressed, well-learned and credentialed persons who play the part well, are able to gain trust of the congregations they infiltrate, and after having made themselves credible in the eyes of those whom they seek to lead astray, begin to undermine and sabotage confidence in the authority of God’s Word by which the Gospel of salvation is delivered because if they can shake confidence in the authority and sufficiency of the scriptures, they can also shake confidence in the Gospel message.  The Church does not have just enemies from without.  We have many enemies from within and it is the enemies among us who do more damage to the cause and name of Christ than those who ridicule our faith, discriminate against and ostracize us due to our faith, and who may even go so far as to threaten and carry out civic punishments and violence against us and against those whom we hold dear on account of our faith.
 
Each and every one us has a choice to make.
 
 
 
Life or death
Good or evil
Light or darkness
Truth or falsehood
Wisdom or foolishness
Holiness or sinfulness
Purity or corruption
Righteousness or unrighteousness
Order or chaos
Liberty or oppression
Angels or demons
God or Satan
Heaven or Hell
Salvation or damnation
 
 
There is no middle ground.  Sides are already being chosen as we speak, even in our own nation.
 
On the one side, we have those who have chosen to be on the side of life, good, darkness, truth, wisdom, holiness, purity, righteousness, order, liberty, angels, God, Heaven, and salvation which ultimately results in them humbling themselves before Jesus Christ in sincere repentance and calling upon Him to take away their sins and committing themselves to His service.
And then there is the other side which continues to reject the authority of God Almighty, has embraced lies and remain deceived by lies, have given themselves over to foolishness, corruption, perversion, ungodliness, have taken the side of demons, followed after Satan, have become instruments of oppression, lovers of darkness, and have become sons and daughters of Hell who are on their way to eternal damnation.
 
What do you reader choose? If you have not done so already and choose redemption, love, mercy, and forgiveness and salvation, and to be on the side of life, light, liberty, and all that is good and right, that I would urge you to call upon the name of the Lord Jesus for the forgiveness of sins so that you may be made a member of His everlasting empire of liberty and a perfect liberty at that and also a citizen of the Heavenly Kingdom which will be joined to that that new and better world that is to come.  It is but a sincere prayer of repentance away:
 
If you long to be a part of a world and Kingdom that is better than this present one and if you have not done so already, then I urge you reader to call upon the name of the Lord Jesus for the forgiveness of sins so as to receive peace about where you will be spending eternity.  It is but a simple sincere prayer of repentance away:
 
 
 
"Lord Jesus I need you.
 
 
I realize that I am a sinner
who has fallen short of the glory of God
and that my goodness falls short
of your standard of Moral perfection.
 
Please forgive me of all of my sins.
Come into my heart and into my life
to be the Savior and Lord of my life.
Make me into the servant and follower
that you want me to be.
In your name Lord Jesus, I pray.
 
 
Amen."
 
 
Know that God is not concerned with the words that you use to call upon Him forgiveness, but with the attitude of your heart and if you have, with all sincerity, have asked Christ to forgive you of your sins, placing your trust in Him only for your salvation and in nothing else, then your sins are forgiven and your place in Heaven is certain.
