Perpetual Selfish Thoughts: (Unedited): 14 May 2018:
Having feelings of being deserving and entitled to your perpetual selfish thoughts and actions. May be enjoyable in the short term. But as the years roll by do not expect to have accrued any real wisdom or knowledge of gaining any real profound purpose or meaning in your life.

Purchasing Meaning: (Unedited): 14 May 2018:
Purchasing the meaning of life through your selfish desire to acquire it is a fundamental impossibility. While you may have helped ease suffering, hunger and ailments. The meaning and purpose of life will only be the empty correct answer to the known question.

Purple words below is a step.
I think I've written this story before. I worked for a local family owned office supply delivery company when I was younger. I worked hard. Cleaned up their warehouse. I was always on time even arrived before the boss. Made my deliveries without issue. While riding with the adult son of the owner we drove past the Alabama Baptist Children's home in Alabama. He made the proud comment of how his family donates to these people in order to keep those criminals off of the street. I was a little upset. I told him I was a former foster kid and would never steal from him or his family. That Friday I was fired. No reason. Yes, I knew I should have kept my mouth shut. Foster kids are taught this early on. Yes, even today there is still the master servant relationships. A servant is not supposed to speak out against the master or the Master's children in any way. Well, I did.
Where is the intentions of your heart? For what reason do you do good things? Out of fear or out of love? Do you do good things just to receive an accolade or respect? Just because a family has been in the church for generations. Does not mean they are actual Christians. Their church may just be their social club.

Youthful Joy: (Unedited): 14 May 2018:
Genuine youthful joy is just one of the rewards gained in this here and now. When you take necessary actions based on your love for one another. No matter the cost.

So you think this world is bad? Maybe not worth it? How about to far gone? or maybe your world is perfect as the rewards from this world always come to you in every decision made. But, is their real purpose and meaning to your life?
================
Personal Note: I have to work really hard to be nice. Even being past 50 years old. I guess for me growing up the way I have. Those things not learned is still very evident. Like how to properly respond to certain intentions and how to properly act to a variety of social stimuli is alien to me. Once I'm past the greeting and weather I tend to get lost in social interactions. I've tried to even ask about family and careers. But when I get returned one word answers. I'm like really.

==================

Go and sin no more.

================
To avert all of the coming bad and sad prophecies. We each must decide to do the following everyday, every hour, every minute and every second.

To Love one another.

To live in peace with everyone.

To exist in harmony with all.

To Cherish all life.

To be obedient to the Laws of God.

To become righteous and holy by the accepting eyes of God only.

All without any pride, ego, arrogance, supremacy and entitlements.

Fearful Faith: Genetic Corruption: (Unedited): 10 May 2016:

Faith which begins in fear only lasts until something more fearful is encountered. 

C.J.MacKechnie

===============
New people who come into the faith should never be taught hell fire and damnation. They not even be taught prophecy to any degree. That is until they have what is needed which births the faith within them. From that foundation can they then grow into mature people who continually walk in righteousness and holiness as only seen by God. 
Sure those are good tools to grow the congregation of any church and then lead into the tithes which will financially grow the church. But, how can you go from those teachings and into a loving God? When the new convert only became a convert based in fear of self. Doesn't the Bible teach us to be selfless?
====================
Fear is a very good motivator. It can cause a person to choose to obey a command. That command will be obeyed until the person or person giving the commands disappear in some way or something more fearful assumes control. Either way the negative emotion of fear is maintained. That is until that which is more fearful is benevolent. What does the Bible say about living in fear. So what can you conclude about fear teachings?
Jesus Christ came and expressed love, compassion, mercy and forgiveness. Jesus came to show that we should serve one another in Love. Jesus was the example. He was also the completion to the covenant from God. Which gives those who freely choose to believe and follow Jesus on the path to righteousness. Why do you think Jesus often said to those he healed to go and sin no more?
=============
In prophecy. There comes a falling away first. How can this be? If people who are genuine mature Christians and who are walking the same righteous path as Jesus. How can they just fall away from the faith? It has to be one of several reasons. 1) They are not truly Christian as accepted by God only. 2) Their faith originated in fear and remained in fear. Until something which seems more fearful presented itself. 3) They are not walking the righteous path in love.

Think about this. Sunday used to be owned by the Christian church. To such a degree. That businesses were closed on Sunday til about noon. You could not buy alcohol until noon  or a little after as well. There were even many counties which did not allow alcohol consumption at all. These were known as dry counties. 3 or 4 channels on the television. Which meant more family time and more time for prayer, contemplation on the bible. Sunday is now owned by sports of every kind. There is so much entertainment that no one has time to dwell into their own mind let alone within the spirit. Alcohol can be gotten anywhere and almost at any time. Drugs can be purchased nearly at any street corner in spite of how illegal it is. So is the proof of the fallen away.
Those that do fall away shall be prevented their possible return through a great delusion. From this great delusion. The people who had the free choice to know the truth shall not. Even if that which is truthful and factual is presented before them. They may even agree with the facts. But believe they won't. For they are already judged. Just as it was in the time of Noah. Where the people saw a man build a 500+ foot long wooden ship and did not believe until the waters came down. But, they only believed it was raining and wanted to save themselves. Their was no intention in them to change the way they were living their lives. For they all were corrupted and contaminated. Even their own perceived innocent children. For no child was saved in that day. For even the children were corrupted at birth through their corrupted parentage.

Genetic Corruption: (Unedited): 10 May 2016:

Willful sin corrupts your own genetic code and that corruption or genetic defect is passed along to your own children. This is why no children survived along with Noah and so to may it be the same in the coming fires of purification.

Conquered Scars (unedited). 06 Feb 2012

Celebrate your scars. That are both seen and unseen. These are the real evidence of conflicts, hardships and adversities. Which you have faced, endured and conquered in your life. C.J.MacKechnie

==========================

Scars are not unsightly nor are they ugly. They are the permanent reminders of your errors and mistakes. They are reminders of your selfless sacrifice. They are proof that you went forward by choice in harms way to conquer evil or to be evil. Either way the sadness you endure from your scars can be a positive emotion instead of a negative emotion. The logical choice of deciding which emotion to place upon your scars is all your. Even if your scars were a result of youthful stupidity. Ask yourself are you the same stupid person today? have you grown and matured into someone more positive and respectful? Has your scars led you to GOD who became your Heavenly Father? Can you now love everyone equally as your brother and sister? Even if they wish you harm? If you can answer yes? Can you answer yes? even while sitting in a chair with lifeless legs? Even while needing assistance to eat, drink or go to the bathroom? Even if your alone is some forgotten hospital?

I can tell you this as a truth. This is a blessing. This is a gift. This life in which you must endure is the crucible of your resolve and humility to be the son or daughter of GOD

Peace be unto you my brother and sister. C.J.MacKechnie
