Psychological
Babble
"The
LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in
whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, [and] my high
tower" (Psalm 18:2).
The question of this century: What
is it going to take to educate, bring back to the cross, young people who know
about Christianity and yet have gone the way of bail?
Before the
useless profession of psychology, professionals who go to the extreme of
telling you that whatever anyone does is alright, that has led to the most
damnable heresy the world has ever known, everything must be politically
correct, there was the blame game. As basic, simple, as simple addition, 1+1=2,
our human need to blame someone else.
My only
child, my son (Dr. John Morris), PhD professor at a seminary,
degrees-microbiology, medical school, theology, often asked to fill in, preach
as a guest speaker...much like his father. I said to him, "Make it simple."
Basic Christianity is so simple-uncomplicated....just tough. Everything centers
around one basic concept....God was so clear but men have made it so
complicated. When you are up in front of an audience regardless of size,
wealth, sophistication, God gave us everything we need to know about him, his
rights, us, our failures in the first chapters of The Bible. "Adam and Eve
were in paradise, fellowship with God, no problems, everything they needed in
the beauty of the garden." BUT, God said to them, "It's all yours,
just one tree is mine. DON'T TOUCH IT." The entire message of Christianity is based
around fact, not feeling, God expects separation. You do not pick and choose
what you believe, Christianity is not a buffet table. Spiritual fervor
demands-restricts. From that day to this day, he set up his parameters, his rights,
HE IS BOSS. BUT, that precious freedom of human will, then, Adam blamed
"the woman that you gave me" (Genesis
3:12), and Eve blamed the snake (Genesis
3:13). So, since God made the serpent, them, gave them freedom, gave them
the garden, it was all God's fault. So, our earliest ancestors chose the spirit
of death instead of the spirit of life. We have not raised stupid children,
they can recognize hypocrisy if nothing else. They know that Christians who
believe in God-Christ, if sincere, will live separated lives. They see a church
house filled with people who are not there to worship because they believe, a
social thing, Madison Avenue techniques to bring the world into the church
rather than the church going out to captivate the world for Christ. And, from
the pulpit, most places just psychological babble, so afraid to offend anyone.
It is difficult to tell sophisticated, beautifully "turned out,"
perfumed, sinners who have the pocketbooks and desire to attend
"church" with the better people of the community, THAT THEY ARE GOING
TO HELL. I asked one beautifully manicured, "turned out" lady at First
Baptist church...she using some very descriptive language...Why she went to my
church? She said, "Some of the most influential people of the community
come here, it is not because a Jew baby was born in a stable!"
This writer
tires of the news media and others using the right words...remembering
veterans, the homeless, the disenfranchised, the disabled. Life is a lonely
adventure for most of the world's population. This veteran has offered $1,000
to anyone who can show that any veterans group, civic club, church, has done
anything at all, ever, for this blind, disabled, veteran. I heard Dr. James
Dobson on his radio program, say, "89% of all nursing home patients never
have a visitor." People who work in these facilities back up everything he
said. One of my friends, Molly Smith, who called me almost everyday before she
died, was a member of her church for 72 years. In the nursing home, no longer
able to attend or give financially, she was abandoned. The babble from the
pulpit about caring for others, "Others Lord yes others, let this my motto
be," just so many words which young people realize. One of my un-churched
friends said, "My father was so religious at the church house but could
curse like a sailor in traffic on the way home from church." A mother
heard her daughter praying in her room before bed, "God please help my
mother to be as nice at home as she is at church."
"Steps unseen before me,
Hidden dangers near;
Nearer still my Savior,
Whispering, "Be of cheer;
Joys, like birds of springtime,
To my heart have flown,
Singing all so sweetly,
"He will not leave me alone."
No, never alone,
No, never alone;
He promised never to leave me,
Never to leave me alone"
No, never alone;
He promised never to leave me,
Never to leave me alone"
Hymn "Fear Not, I am with Thee"
For young
people to believe and hold on to faith, like all of us, they must be a new
creation, repented-turned, soaked and branded by a belief which they are
anxious to worship. The worship service is for believers. This writer has
traveled the world, every continent, you do not find on-lookers in the
temples-cathedrals-mosques of the world's false religions. In the Old
Testament, young people as well as old people knew the location of God, behind
that white seven foot high curtained fence which surrounded the Holy of Holy's,
they knew the drama of the priest killing animals in ceremonial sacrifices,
burned offerings. They knew manna by morning, a cloud of fire by night. They
knew that life was in the blood (Leviticus
17:11). The New Testament teaches us that life-soul is in the blood. Most
young people do not understand the ordinances of the church, baptism-Lord's
table. Only parents who teach and train their children from a very early age to
fight the doubts and fears of the world's materialism-psychological babble,
will have the satisfaction of knowing that their children are saved. Almost
every college professor, member of the state controlled, atheist news media,
will try to convince them that popularity-prosperity are the answers to human
living. The babblers of psychology in this world will never tell you that the
world flesh Devil always pays off with counterfeit.
