Don’t Just Live Be Alive August 3, 2021

All of humanity have physical life while we spend our moment upon the stage of the world. Most have a soulish, or mental life whether we exercise it or not. But only those who have been born-again and united with Christ have spiritual life.
Try to imagine a human being who has no wisdom or understanding, no mental activity beyond what it takes to move, eat, and exist. This person might be in great shape, but their true humanity would be gone, and they would exist more as an animal than as a human.
This is how it is when we have not been born from above or re-born of the spirit. We may be in great shape, we may even be famous, or rich, handsome, beautiful, and acclaimed by all but we wouldn’t be a child of God. We would be dead in our spirit and separated from all that truly makes life worth living: union with our Creator.
Like casting pearls before swine trying to explain spiritual things to anyone who hasn’t been joined to the Body of Christ and received the Holy Spirit is like trying to hold the opposite ends of a magnet together, they repulse each other by their very nature.
Think for a moment of any funeral you’ve ever attended. There was grief present. There may have been tears. There might even have been stunned silence as the mourners contemplated the suddenness of death and the transitory nature of lie. One thing that is never there though is the one in the coffin taking any notice of any of this.
And that’s just how it is with the spiritually dead. The life of God’s Spirit is going on all around them. His Spirit is upholding and maintaining the integrity of all creation. His Spirit is alive and working in all the born-again Christians walking around them all day every day.
There is no more recognition of the passage, the work, or the presence of God’s Holy Spirit among the lost than there is recognition of all the life going on around a corpse in a casket. The spiritually dead read the Bible as it was just another book. They think of God as if He were a moral principle, the force, or a myth. They think of being born-again as something other people do, something that makes no sense, or else they don’t think about it all.
A person who is blind isn’t startled when you turn on a light. A person who is deaf doesn’t jump when you yell at them. It’s the same with those who are spiritually dead and living comfortably in sin, they couldn’t care less that God is holy and that He will not abide sin. They are neither frightened of the consequences of their sin nor are they enthralled with the rewards of salvation. They are blind. They are deaf. They are dead. When we speak of the deep things of God to these walking dead, we might as well be speaking to a brick wall. We are casting our pearls before swine. There is only one message we should seek to share with the lost: repent of your sins, accept Jesus as your Savior, and find life.
The whole meaning of the Gospel, the good news delivered to humanity through Jesus Christ, is seen in His resurrection.
Sin, death, and the devil are defeated when Jesus triumphed over them in the pit of hell disarming principalities and powers making a public spectacle of them as He led captivity captive. We must never forget that He was perfectly sinless and that He was delivered to the executioner for our transgressions and then He was raised for our justification.
Jesus didn’t come to die and then rise again to raise our awareness or further our education. He didn’t live a sinless life and then suffer for the sinful merely to provide us with a moral guide. God didn’t sacrifice His only Son to establish a cultural tradition. No, the passion of the Christ happened so that humanity may learn the truth about God’s love for us and His provision of a way to return to Him and become His children. This is the truth, and the truth has been revealed so that we may be free.
When someone has been missing for a certain length of time the authorities begin looking for them. If when they find them, they’re dead, after notifying their nearest family what else is there left to do except burry them. Because once we’re dead, we begin to decay rather quickly.
Preaching the Word without the anointing of the Holy Spirit is no more than searching for dead bodies. For without the Spirit there is no life. An old story says that once a man had a heart attack and died in a spiritually vacant church and it took the EMTs half an hour to figure out which one was the physically dead among all the spiritually dead.
Having scoured the highways and the byways for those willing to give up an hour on Sunday morning and pay their tithes these blind leaders of the blind can do no more with the breathing corpses than burry them in an upholstered pew. They preach a socially relevant something being careful to end the service in time to make it to the local buffet before all the other stained-glass graveyards get out.
It’s amazing but true, many who have never experienced the new birth will dispute with those of us who have what it is, how it operates, and what it does within us. Leave the laws, traditions, and ceremonies of the world behind and find the freedom that God wants you to have in Christ Jesus and don’t just live, be alive.

America I’m Glad I knew Ya
In this book Dr. Owens offers his opinions and predictions about what is happening in America today and where we’re going. It ends with what he believes is the only solution to the dissolution of the Constitution and the decay threatening the world’s last best hope for freedom:

This book completes the trilogy of books Faith, Hope, and Love.
These books were written with two goals.
One, that they encourage and deepen the faith of my brothers and sisters
who have already confessed with their lips that Jesus is Lord
and believed in their heart that God raised Him from the dead
and are therefore members of the Body of Christ.
And two, that these books will be used as outreach tools.
Each word was prayerfully placed with the hope that they will be
a blessing somehow, to someone, somewhere.
That they will be a step along the road to salvation
in and through Jesus Christ.

Here We Are May 10, 2021

For sixty years I’ve tried to warn people that unless we as Americans woke up and started paying attention our listing ship of state was going to crash into the iceberg of socialist authoritarianism. I held up the freedom and the uniqueness of our Republic, the equality it proclaimed, the prosperity it produced, and the liberty it protected. I extoled, cajoled, and foretold the coming of this long dark winter of our discontent. I tried to use reason, satire, and sarcasm and yet … here we are.
Fifty years of Cold War destroyed the Soviet Union. Twenty-nine years of victory destroyed the United States. All of our bravado, bluster, and hubris has accomplished is to make the post-Stalinist Nikita Khrushchev, “The Butcher of the Ukraine” into a prophet. He told us several things long years ago that we Cold Warriors laughed off as the rantings of a homicidal megalomaniac. Now they sound like a fire bell clanging in the night or the mournful peal for whom the bell tolls. Here are a few things Stalin’s clown, JFK’s nemesis, and our blood-soaked communist Jerimiah told us:
- “You Americans are so gullible. No, you won’t accept communism outright, but we’ll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you’ll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won’t have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.”
- “We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within.”
- “The United States will eventually fly the Communist red flag…The American people will hoist it themselves.”
And as if pulling a page from the secret plan of the Masters of the Universe, he also said, “The press is our chief ideological weapon.”
I have spent decades blowing the trumpet. Many others have stood upon the wall and warned us that the enemy of freedom was already within the gates. Over and over America has been warned. And after all of that, the center has broken, the citadel has fallen, and according to the woke world rising all around us, we are now the barbarians within the gates.
So much for the chimera of reality that is the material world. What is here and now is merely what is here and now. Like distorted images we see in a cracked carnival mirror or the mirage of an oasis in the desert the shifting fog of history surrounding us is but a pale representation of God’s reality. The lying spirit of this world tries to tell us all truth is relative. The Spirit of Truth tells us, “… you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
Now for the rest of the story.
For forty years I’ve been shouting this from the rooftops, “Jesus Christ is Lord!” All the rest, everything is just window dressing. This is the only truth that really matters. For as the old saying goes, “All things will pass, only those things done in Christ will last.”
The politics of this world are as fruitless as a dog chasing its tail. We’re gazing at our navel, rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic, enjoying a first-class seat on the Hindenburg. We’re investing our attention on things that perish with the using and have no eternal significance at all. I’m as guilty as anyone else. I’ve expended much of my thought, energy, and writing skills trying to preserve the freedom and liberty we’ve enjoyed here in America and yet … here we are. I wonder now if I ever encouraged even one person to turn off the game, set down the bear, and look at the shell game Ponzi scheme policies our elected leaders have used to herd us into the socialist corral?
I just can’t do it anymore. I can no longer spend the majority of my time on the minor things of life. I will devote my life to holding out the only hope there is for humanity, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As Paul presents it, “… that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures …” which leads to the ultimate gift of God, salvation, “… that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
That’s it. There are no Herculean tasks to accomplish. You don’t have to meticulously follow some prearranged path of prayer or works. Or, as the Word tells us, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast …” It’s all Him. He does it all. It’s His sheer unmerited favor that opens the door, and it’s His faith that makes it possible for us to believe. And once we are saved, we have an assignment. We are to be His witnesses.
I once was a sinner, lost and alone. I rejected God and served only my own passions and lust. Then Christ revealed Himself to me through His Holy Word. He touched me and made me whole. He gave me a new life, a Proverbs 31 wife, and a mission. That mission is to share what He has done for me with you.
And unlike my fruitless toiling in the fields of political punditry it will bring a harvest. “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” A harvest is promised and a harvest there will be.
You see even though most will ignore this trumpet call just as they ignored the one trying to save the great experiment that was the United States, I am assured that some will choose the right way, “For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” Another promise, a few will find it. The Word says it, I believe, and that’s it. After false starts, wasted efforts, and misguided attempts … here we are.
