“Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” (Proverbs 18:21)
If you allow me to walk unwarned into clear and present danger, how
does your silent indifference prove that you love me? Should liberty
lead to a cessation of life? Nay! I have judged that Russian roulette
endangers life and the giver of life has condemned suicide and all
murderous acts from the beginning. Such
reasoning makes me a legalistic preacher of the law in the eyes of new
gospel wolves in sheep's clothing. However, by the compass of God’s Word
I have judged and chosen this day whom I will serve (Joshua 24:15). http://www.anointedwritenow.com
I will not spare the rod and spoil the child of God (Proverbs 13:24). I
would prefer that my hands remain free of innocent blood. And, lest I
act ignorant of God’s will and His righteous ways, I would rather be
counted among those who have trusted God’s benevolent fatherhood, stood
upon His gracious Word, and decidedly obeyed His irrevocable command to
be holy because He is holy (1 Peter 1:13-16). Go ahead and call me a
hater if you will. Name calling is what people on the low road do first
and foremost, and, hell is enlarging itself daily by way of people with a limited
understanding of another gospel (Galatians 1:6-9). In all our getting of
bestselling books, television ministries, and conferences, please let
us get a full measure of the full gospel illustrated throughout
sixty-six full books which facilitates mature understanding (Proverbs 4:7).

Passion as Persuasion
"Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God." (1 Corinthians 10:31)
What we are thinking about reveals the truth of what and who we believe. If we argue to justify ourselves and our ideology rather than to exalt God’s sovereign omnipotence, shame on us and our passions. Passion can lead to segregation, hatred, and murder when the object of passion is anyone or anything other than God (1 John 3:15). “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Matthew 6:21) Is our treasure earning interest today, dependent upon the political and economic systems of this world? Are we more passionate about our rights than we are about God’s Word and the prayer Jesus prayed for unity in John 17:21-26? Are we more passionate about our possessions and prosperity than we are about who and what Jesus represents to mankind (Hebrews 1:3)? Help us to make You the center of our lives, Almighty God. Help us to make You our passion in Jesus’ name. Amen.
