Jesus Christ Is Lord In Arkansas

Despite those who try to force tax- paid murder of babies upon us, Arkansas lawmakers are rebelling.

Despite those who want to make it legal for sexually- confused men to enter ladies’ restrooms, Arkansans are appalled. Ladies’ restrooms are already crowded enough as it is by real females, or so I’ve been told. And just when left- wingers want to take our guns away, Arkansas is passing laws guaranteeing our God- given right to defend ourselves from attackers.

Arkansas, as you know, is in the middle of the Bible Belt. Jesus Christ Is Lord in Arkansas. Not that everyone in Arkansas is a Christian, but there are a whole bunch of us.

And whether we attend Baptist churches, or Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Catholic, Pentecostal, Church of Christ, Assembly of God, or whatever name is over the door, all Christians have certain things in common. We support Father God, Jesus Christ his Son, God’s Holy Spirit, and the Holy Bible.

We oppose those who oppose God.

And we don’t want anyone from anywhere trying to force ungodly ways of life upon us.

When they try to impose filthy laws down our throats, our response is somewhat like that of Apostles Peter and John when the chief priests “commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye” ( Acts 4: 18- 19).

Jesus Christ was crucified in 32 AD, about 1,989 years ago. He rose from the grave, ascended to Heaven, and has been there ever since, except maybe for occasional business trips to earth, which some claim to have witnessed.

Possibly three times before, during, and at the end of the soon- coming Tribulation era, Jesus will return to the clouds of earth in order to unite soul- spirits of elect saints from heaven with immortal, eternal versions of their former earthly bodies, and to make immortals of living elect saints on earth, and to harPAZoh snatch them up to heaven ( 1 Corinthians 15: 49- 54; 1 Thessalonians 4: 14- 17; John 14: 2- 3; Luke 20: 35- 36).

Then after all his elect saints have gathered as immortals in Heaven at a marriage- like ceremony ( Revelation 19: 1- 10), Jesus will return from Heaven with his army of elect saints and set up a thousand- year kingdom over the nations of the earth ( Revelation 19: 11 - 20: 6).

Meantime, while Jesus Christ is physically in Heaven, his Spirit operates on earth through Christians living down here, as Jesus promised.

“Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you” ( John 14: 17).

Although some are “good” by nature, it’s that Spirit of Jesus, and of God himself, living in us that drives Christians to oppose ungodliness.

With Christ in us, we are not alone. “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” ( 1 John 4: 4).

With God’s help, Christians will keep Jesus Christ as Lord over Arkansas.
