people waiting challenges
God is in charge, waiting for His people to challenge the rulers of the earth and take the steering wheel from them, ... the battle for the earth is currently going on.
jesus people training
Jesus Christ is our supreme commander, but He operates only through His word, which is unquestionably a training manual. However, He has many interpreters, and few people see the Bible as a true training manual.
men people socialism
Socialism is simply Communism for people without the testosterone to man the barricades.
civilization people hatred
Karl Marx was the foremost hater and most incessant whiner in the history of Western Civilization. He was a spoiled, overeducated brat who never grew up; he just grew more shrill as he grew older. His lifelong hatred and whining have led to the deaths (so far) of perhaps a hundred million people, depending on how many people perished under Mao's tyranny. We will probably never know.

ability best christian critics far insider knows mastery straight system test utterly weak weakest
Our critics so far have been utterly incompetent. How do I know this? Because I know the ""soft underbelly"" of the Christian Reconstruction position. Every insider knows where the weak chinks are in his movement's armor. The best test of a critic's mastery of his opponent's system is his ability to go straight for his opponent's weakest spots.
calls conform economic fear gives god image imitators improvement involves jesus men salvation social spiritual steady themselves trembling work
God calls men to be imitators of His son, Jesus Christ, to conform themselves to Christ's image (1 Cor. 15:49). They are to work out the salvation that God gives them, and they are to do this with fear and trembling (Phil. 2:12). This kind of steady improvement involves upward mobility: spiritual improvement, at the very least, but also economic and social mobility.
analysis economic employment fact far good ignores increased lead money nobody prior ready spend
There are still economic illiterates out there who think that a catastrophe is good for business. After all, it will lead to increased employment in the construction industry.

But is it a mania? This week, I spoke with a friend who bought a 2,000 square foot house in Orange County, California, in 1999. He paid $235,000. Two years later, he sold it and moved out of state. He got $350,000 for it. His son, who remained in California but did not buy a home, tells him that it just sold for $800,000.

Just start preaching like a prophet of God, and the losers will leave, or toss you out. Your income as a pastor is going to wipe you out anyway; better seek alternative income now, while you have the opportunity.
