“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!

WHAT DO YOU BLESS? It would be an act of utter folly and disaster were I to choose to "bless" what God will not bless. God's wrath is set against anything and anyone that would try and hinder you becoming all He created you to be and to grow in by being united to Him through the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ. There is nothing arbitrary about the Word of God. He is very specific on what will make for life and what will not. Human life only becomes human life when the Holy Spirit becomes Life withing a believer. Being united to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the follower of Jesus becomes a new creation and begins to live Life as God intended. God begins the good work, and He is the One who will bring it to competition. Somethings will NEVER make for life. What God calls sin, missing the mark of what will make for life, is always sin regardless of what culture anywhere and anytime say to the contrary. Sin cannot save, heal, redeem, restore or remake...
 THE FOLLY OF IDOLATRY Martin Luther said that the human heart is an idol factory. The truth is that we were created to know and live by the gracious rule of and in the Presence of God who created us. Our peace, our understanding of meaning and purpose can only be truly grounded in God who created us for that meaning and purpose. The rebellion of Adam and Eve, their decision to do the opposite of what God said would make for life, resulted in spiritual and ultimately physical death. They chose to believe they needed something more than what God had provided. Their doomed attempt to try and live life without reference to God as the ground of meaning and purpose did not make life fuller, but emptied it. They wanted to decide what was good and what was evil without God and the disintegration of human life was the consequence. Rather than living in the Presence of God and by the gracious rule of God all around them, they turned from wholeness to brokenness, from fulfilment to scarc...
BEWARE DECEPTION   Deuteronomy 18:9 “When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, be very careful not to imitate the detestable customs of the nations living there. Deuteronomy 12:29-30 “When the Lord your God goes ahead of you and destroys the nations and you drive them out and live in their land, do not fall into the trap of following their customs and worshiping their gods. Do not inquire about their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations worship their gods? I want to follow their example.’ Pragmatics was the downfall of Israel when they took possession of the Promised Land. To the unredeemed eye, it seemed that the fertility gods and agricultural gods of the pagan nations actually were helping the indigenous peoples. Just because something works does not make it right or good.  God promised to prosper His people if they would trust Him to the point of obeying His Word. God's Word is not empty. When He directs and commands, it is always for...
