In the end and we stand before Jesus, what does one say to Jesus about his or her behavior toward people of another race or ethnic background? One day we will all answer to the King—this is not a critical race theory—this is a fact.
Esther or Hadassah was an orphan and raised by Mordecai as his own daughter. Mordecai was a Jew, carried into exile from Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar along with his daughter.
Esther was taken to the king’s palace and under the wing of Hegai pleased Hegai to the point that she won his favor.
Examine the intersection of race and US law and to challenge mainstream American liberal approaches to racial justice.
Solomon, before the Lord, says that he is a little child and does not know how to carry out his duties. Solomon, being taught the ways of the Israelites, a great people asks for a discerning heart to govern the people and to distinguish between right and wrong.
The conclusion of the matter: In the good times, always give God the credit and in the bad times, thank God for the good that comes out of it. Simple, no but when life is uncontrollable and evil is gaining upon you, don’t despair—God is ALWAYS THERE—in the good times and in the bad times.
But, if you do wrong, fear; for it carries not the sword in vain; because it is a servant of God, showing displeasure to those who do ill. Therefore it is necessary to obey; not only because of its displeasure, but for the sake of conscience.
This lesson is not to point fingers nor to feel good to set one straight, but to be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to be angry. I am reminded of an old story that may illustrate the taming of the tongue:
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred.
As Solomon prays to the EVER-LIVING, he asks that “Your People Israel” receive protection and restoration in their land, deliverance from pestilence, lack of rain, disease, mildew and any other calamity they might receive, receiving foreigners who are not of Your People Israel, victory in battles and in wars and the history of the Israelite people from the time of their exodus from Egypt.
We take for granted our eyesight, our speaking, our comprehension and use of our mind and give it no second thought to the one who gave us these wonderful blessings.
I think you will agree that if we were under God’s laws and not those of man that our world would be ideal. God has addressed every issue in his laws with a solution that makes sense and could and should be used by all. I have been studying numerous books on his laws with the KJV Bible being the center for knowledge and understanding for many years and wish to share my thoughts and welcome your thoughts…
