Another shooting, this time in Jacksonville, Florida. The news coverage once again shows that people don't understand why this is happening. But the reason is very simple. Man is sinful, sometimes to the point of evil and wickedness. Without a counter agent to that sinfulness, this is what you get. That counter agent is called the Bible. That's not something people want to hear.
The greatest thing my parents did for me was expose me to the Bible. With that exposure came a respect for life.
I was picked on in school. Today they call it bullying. Public schools are at a loss to know what to do about bullying. But the the solution is very simple. Parents need to expose their children to the Bible. When I was bullied, I never considered violence as a way to deal with it. That's because of my respect for life. But today, children are not raised with a respect for life. So, one of the ways people deal with adversity is go get a gun and start shooting. It is really very easy to understand, but it seems people don't want to understand it.
Respect for life is the basis for morality. Without it, morality goes away. And morality has gone away in the United States. People want what they want, and they don't care how to get it, even at the point of a gun.
Government made it worse by destroying the 2nd Amendment. Now people are at the mercy of crazed gunmen with no way to defend themselves.
Respect for life has left the church. When Pastors go on TV and pray for war in support for Israel, where is the respect for life in that? And they support the slaughter of innocent Palestinians.
The accepting of abortion shows we have lost our respect for life, and yes, homosexuality shows no respect for life. You see, life begins at conception, and homosexuals cannot conceive.
Want to stop these shootings, the solution is simple. U.S. society must respect life again.
We have a President that has no respect for life, as shown by the way he's enforcing the unconstitutional immigration laws we have.
The lack of respect for life shows itself in many different ways. Government policies that allow ther murder of children with FDA approved forced vaccinations. FDA approved cancer treatments that eventually kill people, while not allowing cures for cancer. Treatment of diseases bring in more money for the drug company CEOs than a cure would. And I could go on about how our Government doesn't have a respect for life.
What about the churches? They support a President who they claim was put there by God. Obviously the churches don't care about a Biblical respect for life, or they would welcome foreigners and not support a President that tears immigrant families apart. If the churches believed in a Biblical respect for life, they would oppose Israel's slaughter of innocent Palestinians. But these stupid people believe that Israel are God's chosen people, which is a lie from the pit of Hell. And Hell will be their eternal resting place, and they will be right at home, so they might not know the difference.
For shootings and other problems in America to be solved, we as a nation must once again have a respect for life, and I mean all life.
In her tribute to her father, Alan Jackson's daughter said, "I see you as my best friend. The guy that taught me that how you treat people matters more than anything else." She later thanked Alan for raising her in house full of Jesus and music. You can here the story here...
America needs more fathers like Alan Jackson. We will see shootings at least be lesser. We will never ever totally eliminate sin from the human condition. But with a respect for life, we will see an improvement of the human condition. Respect for life is the solution to the shootings.
