The Correct Comparison #36
by Joseph Prescia

2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. (KJV)

This is why there is so much evil attacking Christians worldwide. It’s not that it’s a choice between religions. Some would have you to believe that it’s a simple case between Christianity and Muslims or between Christianity and any other so-called religion. This is not true. The Koran was born in the mind of an evil influenced Mohammed with the intent to steer as many away as possible from the one true God and His written holy Word, the Bible. The same is true for Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism and all the rest. And yet people say “they make the same claim as you do.” Well those who founded their religions are dead. Confucius is dead, Gautama is dead, Lao-Tse is dead, Mohammed is dead. But my lord and savior, Jesus Christ has been raised from the dead and is seated at the right hand of God. And it’s now Christ in me the hope of glory as a result of holy spirit entering in. All of the so-called religions of the world are based upon the works of man. The Bible teaches that we are saved by grace, not of works. It is in the already accomplished work of a perfect savior, Jesus Christ, coordinated by God Almighty that we accept Christ.

In our own Christian established nation of the United States, we have those who attack Christians every day. It may not be with physical abuse but they attempt to verbally discredit the truth written in the Word of God. They call us extremists because we refuse to accept their Humanist dogma. They try to paint us as evil by using their standard which is man’s standard rather than God’s standard of the holy scriptures.

Any other doctrine than that of God’s written Word is devilishly inspired and therefore wreaks of idolatry. Every nation that is entrenched in idolatry is as backwards as Afghanistan and the Taliban and is also lacking in prosperity and health. The United States is number one in the world and will continue to be so as long as it adheres to holy scripture.

Psalm 33:12a Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord. (KJV)

Those of us who read and believe the Bible to be from God are not blinded by the god of this world, Satan. We know that the war on terrorism is not the Bush administration against Osama. It’s not the United States against the Taliban. The true comparison is any evil person or circumstance against the one true God. It wasn’t David against Goliath. It was Goliath against God. David said so when he stated to Goliath:

1 Samuel 17:46-47 This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand...for the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands. (KJV)

No matter what terrorists say and do the battle is the Lord’s and we shall always prevail! Our God is number one and compared to Him all else fails.
