Restoring Us to Humanity 1.0 – Motivating Factor
If I could narrow things down to a more simplistic view of this whole process, I’d say that it all boils down to what we can call our motivating factor. In essence, all people are motivating by something in life. I’m not talking about being motivated to become a doctor or lawyer, teacher or healthcare worker, etc. I’m talking about the thing that motivates a person is all aspects of their life. In essence, that motivating factor is their foundation from which they make all decisions. Human beings are either motivated by a true love (that only comes from God), or they are motivated by a deep sense of self. That’s really it; as there are only those two true motivators.

Restoring Us to Humanity 1.0, Pt 1
Ultimately, salvation is saving us from death on the negative side, but it is also bringing us back to the intended creation of God originally, Human 1.0. We will eventually get there but it is our job to assist God by submitting to Him and His will on a daily basis so that the characteristics of godly love will be shed abroad in our hearts (Romans 5:5).
Conspiracies or Realities?
Globalists don’t take kindly to defeat and I believe with Satan’s empowering (and God allowing), globalists will move the world much closer to the start of the coming Tribulation. I’m not going to discuss dates or timing because no one knows. I simply think, based on what I see coming (using the phrase figuratively, not literally), that 2025 won’t be a great year. Of course, had Harris won the election, 2025 would be an absolutely appalling year, so we dodged a bullet of sorts.

Satisfy the Afflicted Soul
If you help people who need help, simply because you are in the position to be able to help them, they will begin to question within themselves why you are helping them. They may not understand at first, because maybe no one has helped them before. It feels weird to them, though at the same time, it is uplifting to them as well.
Living Upright in an Unright World
It’s very clear what Paul was telling Timothy. We are living in the last days and what we are seeing is simply more evidence of demonic activity working through human beings in preparation for the coming final kingdom led by the Antichrist, than anything else. People, as you know, are truly divided today like never before; divided over ideology, gender, race, culture, religion and politics. It’s causing many to draw battle lines.
Context is Really Everything
Today’s Christian need to stop and consider how difficult life was for the average Christian during the first and second centuries. We Christians in America have no real understanding of that because we are simply not physically persecuted like they were then. We might be politically persecuted (oh, woe is us!), but Christians are not accosted on the street for being Christians, neither are we gathered, lined up and executed for our faith as Christians are today in Nigeria and now in Syria by Islamic jihadists who are attempting to bring in the final Islamic Caliphate.

Naboth, Ahab and Lessons of the Elite
If some technocrat came to me and offered me X amount of dollars for my home and land and I refused, I’d be concerned about what might happen after that. There are too many ways for a rich person to ruin a person of average means. If I was then invited to some banquet in my honor, I’d avoid it like the plague.

Marvelous in Our Eyes
Jesus quotes this passage in Mark 12, in his parable about the wicked tenants. In effect, this statement – the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes – is a fascinating statement. I’ve read it. You’ve read it. Pastors have preached about it. Books have been written regarding it. But even though we get a sense of what that means, it isn’t really driven home to us until something in our life matches it. Then our eyes begin to open to that awesome reality. Let me give you a personal example.
Giving Wokeness the Boot!
In my opinion, all of this clearly indicates to me that we are living in the last days. The proliferation of biblical error is growing, replacing the truth of God’s Word with a social gospel that literally only has the capacity to divide people by race, gender and ideology. If a Christian does not study and know God’s Word, they have zero chances of seeing the error.
Zechariah 6: Crowning Joshua
Throughout Scripture, God gives us glimpses (sometimes more than just glimpses), into the future where He promises to right wrongs, to rework and recreate things and in general, make life very pleasant for those allowed into the Millennial Kingdom. Zechariah 6 is merely one case of many where the curtain is pulled back from the future and we are enabled to see a glimpse of what to expect then.
