“There is a necessary separation of good from evil, of true from false, of the right from wrong that constitutes the criterion of moral judgment of human behavior. “Inclusivity” opposes this distinction, allowing oneself to be deliberately contaminated by evil to adulterate the good, equating the true and the false in order to corrupt the former and give legitimacy to the latter.” Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò

The Gospel includes us all. It is the singular "inclusivity". For all of us have sinned and fallen short of the Glory God intended for us to know as full human beings. We lost that glory of being fully alive. As it is written, all we like sheep have gone astray; we have, every one of us turned from God to devise what we think would be a life better than He defined. And it has ruined us all. Human history teaches clearly that humanity will never be its own salvation. Sin will never save humanity. Going "our own way" in rebellious opposition to what God says makes for life will continue to rot humanity from the inside out.

On the cross, Jesus Christ included every human that had ever or would ever draw breath on the planet. The Creator is worth and infinite number of His creations. When the Creator became a creature, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, He was THE man who could bear the sin of every person who would ever be. He bore in His own human body, experienced in His own human emotions the full-bore wretchedness, the evil, the indifference, the violence, the sickness and disease, the hatred that anyone would ever bear toward another person made in God's image, even the very power of death itself was willfully and fully absorbed by Jesus. In His death, the death of deaths, He broke the power of sin to enslave humanity. He has done everything needed to restore us to the Love of God. He has done everything necessary for us to be fully human again. He has done everything necessary for us to have a new heart, a new spirit, a new spiritual DNA.

This is true inclusivity. This is God gift of unending life for all people. Being a gift, it must be received. Receiving it will mean that you turn from self-destructive delusion and surrender you whole life to Life Himself. He will keep His promises to transform you from the inside out; to make you whole...ALL OF YOU!

 James 1:5-8 " If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and He will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.   But when you ask Him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind.   Such people should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.   Their loyalty is divided between God and the world, and they are unstable in everything they do." We must remember that God is never upset that we don't know or understand how to live out the New Life He has given to us. That Life is now being lived out in us by the Holy Spirit. This Life of the Kingdom is radically different that the life we are accustomed to living in concert with the world. One of the main marks of a true follower of Jesus Christ is that there is change and ongoing change in us by the Holy Spirit. We do not remain as we once were. The Holy Spirit is conforming us to the Image o...
 HEBREWS 10:1-2, 10-18 "The sacrifices under that system ( the Old Covenant) were repeated again and again, year after year, but they were never able to provide perfect cleansing for those who came to worship.   If they could have provided perfect cleansing, the sacrifices would have stopped, for the worshipers would have been purified once for all time, and their feelings of guilt would have disappeared.   For God’s will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time.  Under the Old Covenant, the priest stands and ministers before the altar day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which can never take away sins.   But our High Priest offered Himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then He sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand.   There He waits until His enemies are humbled and made a footstool under His feet.   For by that one offering He forever m...
 WORRY AND PRIDE Tim Keller said that it takes pride to worry. If we have made a mental or emotional determination about how our lives should run, what should happen and how things will play out and then things do not go as planned, we get upset. We decide what life should look like, trusting our own perspective and understanding, our own pride. We become worried due to the fact that our calculations have not proved to be accurate. Now what!? King Solomon, the world's wisest man stated, "Trust in the LORD with ALL your heart and don't rely or lean on your own understanding. In ALL your ways acknowledge that Him ( that He is the Lord of life, that He is in control and will lead those who believe, trust and rely on Him for all of life's details) and He will direct your path." Humility says, "Well, that's not what I expected, but then I don't see as God sees. I believe He has my life in hand, and He is directing things even if I can't understand them...
