Yes, only God knows how tightly woven are the combined secrets of the multitude. It is all called unconfessed sin. And for those who refuse to acknowledge it, it grows undetected for the most part. When it does rear its ugly head, much of the time it is greeted with denial and plain old blame-shifting. Sin begins when life is not God-centered.

Now there is a big difference between what may be considered "good"-centered and God-centered. There are many good men and women in the world.  Many highly esteemed people, have had to overcome a huge tragedy in their life …and have done well.  But, most would say that character is simply developed along with an appreciation of commitment ...an offering of good guidance and direction.  

Many would say that is the primary factor in developing depth of character. But to be truly good, that guidance should be in the direction of God.   

Compromise is at times deemed a good thing; and at times it is considered bad.  Don't compromise the Word of God.  That which we have not adhered to ...makes it difficult to hear what we must adhere to. 

We must use discretion ...to avoid deception. And there must be a standard, outside of ourselves.

"The entire world must make their own choice ...though individually.  Right now there is a call to join together as a nation in the name of patriotism.   We claim that the highest honor we can bestow upon anyone is in reference to national loyalty, …those who fight for their own country, preserving the love of country through their devotion and purpose, and through their sacrifice for their country.   The opposite of a patriot is:  One who breaks faith with, fails to meet the hopes of, and leads others astray through deceitful words and practices.   That betrayal of one's own country, cause, or friends ---is considered unforgivable, and is labeled a traitor.   But who is it that breaks the trust, love, and loyalty ...of the only One who is worthy of trust?  There are many who have led us astray, and deceived us …not just because of greed, but for motives too sick to understand or to describe.   I don't know what drives such ruthless lusts of power …but once it begins, it does not need any help ---it thrives on, and drives itself.   Yes, it is confusing …but it is clearly evil.   Not only does it need to be exposed, all of you must likewise expose yourself to the truth …and ask yourself why you would follow any other path.  Any path away from the Bible just adds to the confusion.   It is part of the deception.  The Bible is the source of truth.   But what the truth has become, we have allowed it to become.  God is now either a small 'g', or generic, and Jesus is considered no more than a fable ---an unpopular one at that.   And instead of reflecting on things of eternal value, we have developed our own kingdom building.  Do you believe the one who has the vision of that kingdom should control the kingdom?   Who've you given that control to?  How many of you have put your faith in a plan of salvation for the economy and the security of our nation ---yet, you don't even acknowledge any substance of eternal security through God's plan of salvation."  

There are many reasons why you may not want to listen ...some are good reasons; some are not.

"You would readily call me ignorant, foolish, and stubborn.   Like Balaam, you would blame the donkey, when you are the stubborn one.   But sadly enough, most of you don't even know who Balaam is.  For years, you have turned away from the Bible and stubbornly ignored the truth.  The majority of you no longer believe in the truth.   You believe in the Essence, which in essence, is to believe in whatever you want to believe in.   You are like those described in the Book of Judges …believing that what you see fit in your own eyes is sufficient.   And your condition is also quite accurately described in the first Chapter of the Book of Romans …as you've been roamin' around, looking for whatever it is that satisfies your whims:  Because when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations ……changed the glory of the incorruptible God onto an image made like to corruptible man.   So God gave you up to uncleanness through the lusts of your own hearts.  You chose to deceive yourselves …now you can easily be deceived by others.  Most of you want to believe in what the majority believes in.  You believe in the technological dabble, dabble ---trying to reach perfection through our informational Tower of Babel, babble, babble, psychobabble.  Sounding brass, tinkling cymbal, disguised by our symbol of freedom ---of speech and expression.  The majority of you, when faced with not being the majority …became the majority because most of you didn't want to be in the minority.  And you continue to be uncommitted to views that are unpopular.  Even those of you who still believe Jesus died for  you, don't choose to live for  Him …so others miss seeing your commitment, and fail to desire to live with Him.  Only a minority will believe, always what they alone believe in.  It is those who have strong conviction.  But among those who have strong conviction, you also have your divisions.  You have the strong wrong, and the fight for the right.  Sadly, the strong wrong feel they are right.  And those who fight for the right, often fight for what they feel is right, not the battle God would choose for them. They often stand firm when challenged and at times are rather convincing."    

You have to be cautious with who you listen to ...but mostly when listening to yourself.

"It may appear they are following Jesus' direction as described in the Book of Luke, Chapter nine, verse five:  And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.   We may say we have the same source of truth, but still pose great differences.  Now, I feel that I understand what Jesus meant here, just as you may feel you know what He meant.  Yet, in the event that my interpretation and your interpretation are different, I would have to ask if you claim to have ordained authority.   And if that be your claim, be careful not to hold your self-ordained authority over Christ's.  For I would have to ask one more thing:  The next time you shake the dust from your sandals, I caution you, for the vigor by which you bid their good riddance, may cause such a cloud of confusion that the dust gets in your eyes ---or a mote, or a beam ---so much so, as to cloud your vision …or perhaps ultimately destroy it.   Then you would not be a testimony to God, but merely to yourself only."  

There are leaders who lead us down the wrong path. But there are also good leaders, and it is so refreshing to hear what they say ...not because they are so good at saying it, but because what they are saying is good.

"We realize how truly confusing this may all be.  Our main intent is not to focus on the lies and deception, but to bring light to the truth.  Therefore, it may be beneficial to back up a bit ---to take a look at how it all began, to see when things were right, and to realize when the right could no longer be discerned from the wrong …and why that is.  We have purposed together to show you why that is ---to bring you the truth, and allow you to see how we have moved away from that truth to this confusion we now all live in.  Our story, The Evolution of Confusion, is only purposed to bring attention to His story, the only significant history that benefits us, beyond the past, to the present, and eternally into the future."  

                                     

God wants to enter your life ...but so do the ways of the world. Some of you embraced the ways of the world, and let it guide your life.

     Now that makes another choice a more difficult one for many of you.  There may be severe consequences for many of you ...for making the right choice.  

     For some of you, that may make it difficult. But some of you have a tendency to be difficult.  

     For me, the choice is easy.  Whatever consequences have to be endured for the right choice, are not nearly as devastating as the eternal consequences for making the wrong choice.   

     We must all choose.   

     Some of you may decide not to choose.  That is not an option.   

     By not choosing, you are still  choosing.  


      

Fear may make a stand …to keep you from the truth.  
But once you've embraced truth, fear will not drive you away.   

    True love is the love of truth.  That love will keep you.      

    The secret is to find truth.  It is not difficult to find.     

    It is merely found by the sincere seeking of it.    

    It was not meant to be a secret.    
Its purpose is to be sought.  
We share it so others may seek it.
Those who don't share it, are robbing it of its purpose.
