Brother !!
I see you've gotten "frustrated" trying to help these folks wake-up, to be aware and come to The Truth, our Lord Jesus. .. Trying to enlighten to the Truth... but as you see, they don't want to believe Jesus, as
they prefer to walk in the flesh, rather than the Spirit.
Gal 5:16-18
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that you cannot do the things that you would. But if you be led of the Spirit, you are not under the law.
It's our carnal nature and proclivity to SIN !! ~~~ Consciously or unconsciously (delusional) people love their selfishness, their sin, more than Jesus. --- Sad, but true ! and I, like Paul, in
Romans 7, struggle daily, to overcome my fallen nature. Help me Jesus, I pray !
2 Thessalonians 2:11-13
For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness. But we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth.
"The proverb
"You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep" communicates that it's futile to try to force someone to acknowledge or engage with something they are consciously choosing to ignore, akin to
"burying one's head in the sand." This metaphorical 'pretense of sleep' signifies a deliberate refusal to participate or confront a situation, despite being fully aware of the circumstances,
and consequences, whether it be political, professional, personal.
OR SPIRITUAL" My grandfather, useta say,
" You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink" :-> same thing HERE ^/^ We can only present the
Truth, a seed to these folks,
then let the Holy Spirit do the heavy lifting
These folk don't want to obey God, it's our carnal nature, since The Fall... So they have built a very complex, "religion", a belief system, day commonly called "dispensationalism", the foundation of which was initiated in the mid-1500s, by the beast system, "Babylon", the Roman Catholic Church, to counter the Protestant Reformation. The anti-Christ system, hates the Word of God... and has done an excellent job of corrupting biblical
Truth, the Way, to the Life.
So now in these
Last Days, they say there are around 47,000 denominations,
different "ways", all with a different variation of "Truth", having different doctrines, most all Sunday keeping, instead of keeping God's 10 Commandments, and Sabbath remembrance, and most are variations of this dispensation corruption. Satan, through his false prophets and the Beast have thoroughly deceived & convinced many to follow him, through their selfishness, which was initiated at the Fall, in Eden.
Many here in these CC Forums are very proficient in this dispensational argument. :-(
Don't get discouraged, word battling with these folks in the CC, as this is just what Satan would have us do... beating our heads up against his "bulwarks" and mainstays. We need to concentrate on the folks who are open minded, seeking wisdom and Truth, Jesus, which The Holy Spirit will send us opportunity. We just need to stay Christ Centered and receptive to the Spirit's guidance, 24/7 walking in that Spirit.
Pray and proceed, letting God use us,
His Will be done,
Lifting up Jesus & spreading
His Holy Spirit. ~~~
never give up to overcome ~Amen!~
Blessing Brother.. Keep the Faith, & proclaim the Everlasting Gospel. ~~~ Amen !
