** Behold my Glory!

** Behold my Glory!

JOHN 17:24

"Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world." KJV

“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. NKJV

God the Father had the plan of salvation worked out before He even created the world. Most of us would not have created the world and man if we knew the heartache and terrible sacrifice it would cost. But God is not a man. In His judgment (which is the correct judgment) the prize was worth the cost.

We were chosen in Christ before the world began. 

The Lord did not choose us by our merit, but solely by our acceptance of Christ which His foreknowledge allowed Him to do before the foundation of the world. In the strictest sense, we were not personally chosen, but Christ was chosen and all those who are "in Christ" partake of His being chosen by His Father. Just as we are the beneficiaries of the covenant between God the Father and His Son Jesus, so we are chosen because we chose God's chosen, i.e. Christ. The Father would no more reject us than He would reject Jesus because we are accepted by the Father through Christ.

None of us can claim that we are without blame in the sight of men because a mankind looks on the outward appearance (1 Sam. 16:7) and all of us have sinned (Rom. 3:23). But the Lord looks on our born-again spirit which has been regenerated in Christ and He sees us holy and without blame.

If you look at any color through a red glass, that color becomes red. The same thing would happen if you looked through a green glass. Everything would become green. In a similar way, God looks at us through Christ and everything in our life becomes covered by the blood of Jesus. We are holy and without blame before Him because of His love expressed through His Son.

The KISS principle

To all my friends and those who read or follow my posts:
While I do not make often contact you personally - please know that I think about you. I read, write and post on the truth or some of the altercations with it because of my upbringing. {Raised in Dixie}

We were taught to respect others {it does not mean to surrender your values} and to make wherever you are a better place for having been there. 
It seems that so much of the world has become self-centered and domineering.

As an avid reader {reading can aid you in finding the truth and lead to a better way of life} plus a student of history and of course the Bible my perspective is based upon " love your neighbor " principles. Having been an engineer, following logical and truthful ways -  my Modus Operandi has guided me well.

Therefore I have a low tolerance for flagrant misapplication and gross ignorance plus intolerance! I have always attempted to analyze, then apply a solution to most ration problems in life. The modern course of thinking seems to flow only in the way of popular and crass activities. But without reason or some compromise popular things tend to fail and lead many into falsehoods.

Much of the consternation I see in the world today is based upon mainly
 (3) three things: 

1) Gross ignorance or the lack of properly applied facts. Knowledge does no good if you do not have all the real facts at your disposal. 

2) Hasty generalization and being too quick to misjudge things.

3) The lack of good moral judgment and logical application leads to falsehoods and problems.

The last 100 years has led to many new things - yet most have been distorted and molded into money makers for the " Controllers."
This has worked well due to lack of proper knowledge and the prevalent operation of Greed on the part of many in the leadership.

Complexity has been a prime distraction and failed the general public in the world! I try to follow the KISS principle which is:
Keep it simple stupid! Some have asked me if am calling them stupid 
{All of us are actually stupid in many things} - to which I
reply "no I am stupid so I want it simple! " Keep it simple!

Complexity has caused many problems and covered up a great number of schemes for the Controllers of the world!
