Genesis [ESV today] 3:1-5 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field
that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God actually say,
'You shall not eat of any tree in the garden'?" And the woman said to the
serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, but God said,
'You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden,
neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'" But the serpent said to the
woman, "You will not surely die. For God knows that when you eat of it
your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and
evil."
Ephesians 6:10-20 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put
on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of
the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the
rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present
darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore
take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil
day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on
the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as
shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In
all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish
all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and
the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the
Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all
perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that
words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of
the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it
boldly, as I ought to speak.
2Timothy 4:1-4 I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to
judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the
word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with
complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not
endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for
themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from
listening to the truth and wander off into myths.
Fact: A vacuum
does not remain a void. Something will fill the space by being drawn in or set
to.
Fact: There are
those inherently skilled or trained to create vacuum(s) so as to make space to
backfill with design(s) of their or others making.
Fact: By and
large Bible readings and explicit teachings have pretty much been removed from
public school systems. No longer is God presented as actual; Sovereign, Creator,
Sustainer, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Ultimate Judge et al. No longer
are The Ten Commandments, Bible-based God-centered Golden Rule, et al presented
as the true basis for right-living, “righteousness”.
Fact: In public schools and community youth
social groups fashionable morals and ethics are being taught by staff and
costumed super heroes and encouraged to adapt their personal hero mantle.
Fact: We were expressly
warned by God’s Holy Spirit. (1Tim.1:4; 2Tim.3:1-5)
Fact:
