Hello Forum! How are you? I'm doing well myself, and it's a pleasure to post with you!
This message is primarily for Rick Santorum. Hopefully he's browsing the threads here on RPF and can intercept this message.
I just wanted to let you know that Satan not only has his eyes on America, but he has his eyes on the whole world. We have to work on ourselves to expel the lies within us individually, before we can help others do it as well. Seeing that Jesus is truth, and the Son of God, who is also truth, and that Satan is the father of lies, and only gives birth to more lies, it is easy to see which forces are for good, and which ones are for evil. God is truth, and gives birth to truth. Satan is lies, and breeds liars.
So now that we have stated that fact we can see who we serve by figuring out if truth is in us, or if lies are in us. If we serve truth, we serve God. If we serve lies, we serve Satan.
So, in your circumstance Mr. Santorum, seeing that you are a politician, and that your decisons effects global events, we can see through policy decisions that you have made, or statements that you have made to find out whether you serve truth, or lies.
You have said you support invading Iraq due to the danger of Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction. Later after your support for said invasion no weapons of mass destruction were found. This qualifies as a lie. So because a lie caused you to support warfare, you have served a lie, even if unknowingly. I understand that the Iraqi government was evil, but does one repay evil with more evil causing Satan to rejoice? Or should one repay evil with good, thereby cutting evil in half? Jesus actually gives us the answer, you should look it up. It does a lot of good to read the Word without an agenda, but with an open mind sir.
Also. Truth does not defeat lies by telling more lies. Truth defeats lies by being rock solid and continuing in truth.
There is a story in the old testament of the Bible in the book of Daniel that tells of three men who refused to bow to Nebuchadnezzar, therefore he cast them bound in the fiery furnace. The three were engulfed in the flames, and there was a fourth who "looked like a son of the gods" who walked around in the fire with the three men unbound. When the three men came out of the flames, they were not hurt or burnt whatsoever! Do you know how that could be Mr. Santorum? I think I might know. I think the flames are temptations, lies, and deceit, and since the three men are of the truth [that is, of God] these men were not affected by Nebuchadnezzar's flames of lies. These men were not corruptable because they walked WITH truth. Truth was in them, so lies had no effect on these men!
There is a place, [I don't know where exactly] called hell, and Satan the father of lies rules it. Some of us are cast in the fire and quickly destroyed by its power. Others who walk in the truth, the way, and the life [sound familiar?] are not affected by these flames, and walk out of them unharmed. I invite you Mr. Santorum to walk in this way too, unless of course, you are content with serving your father of lies.
