See, yet blinded? Hearts hardened? John 12:37-41

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
   Today, friends, we are in a fight!  Yes, a fight for religious freedom.  Our constitution offers us the freedom of religion---not the freedom FROM religion.  However, today, in the United States, we, Christians, are the target of oppression.  Ever hear of the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union)? A group of people who fight against any form of Christianity they can.  A Holocaust Memorial back East is under attack now because they are planning to put the Star of David, a six pointed star, above the memorial.  This, they claim is offensive and points toward Judaism.  Huh?
   In Jesus times, He and his disciples were under attack by the Pharisee, Sadducee, and the masses. Yes, satan is at work everywhere.  Fighting Christianity - notice there is no, or appears to be no opposition to the Islamic extremists and Islam.  Why?  Well, satan's fight is with God - the Trinity - and the Islam's just are not a threat to him.  Plus, they are assisting him in his pulling away from Christianity.  Hmm?   Are you passive when someone says it does not matter what you believe in, as long as you believe in a god?  Does this make sense to you?  Just believe - it doesn't matter.

   John 12:37-41 ^{37 "}Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him. ³⁸ This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet:“Lord, who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”³⁹ For this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:⁴⁰ “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so they can neither see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, nor turn—and I would heal them.”

⁴¹ Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus’ glory and spoke about him."
  Man, wow, oh wow! They saw, yet was blind to the miracles; their hearts had hardened. It was, and still is a choice to accept or reject Jesus Christ as our personal LORD and Saviour!  We must spread the word, be bold, and go forth. Be as Paul, my friend, be as Paul.  If you don't have it in you to do so, then you need to go back to your strength-God- and ask for help, go back to GOD!
  Time is crucial my friend, your life and the life of your family and friends are at stake. STAND UP FOR JESUS!  Love you all.
   In Christ's Love and Grace
