Video Games Exposed pt.1

Video Games is the seccond song on the "Let the game down" Playlist.

For proper guidance, let us examine this scripture

2Co 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Imagination - (worldly definition) the ability to bring to though or "conjur" thoughts of a matter, situation or circumstance, usualy in context of "what isn't" via "what might be".

Imagination & Conscience

This verse comes after we have been given the identy of our weapons which are not carnal(of the flesh), and here we can see that the "imagination" reffered to here is one that is a high thing exalting above God.

Since imagination is an issue of the mind, we know that CONSCIENCE is involved and thus we are given the conscience OF GOD.

The world however, thrives on the DWINDLING of consicence via use of EXAGERATED/EXCESS imaginaton that does not remain in the fulness and soundness of Gods conscience given to man through his son Jesus Christ.

Video Games

The term "video games" means things created in visual in order to distract or evasively preocupy the mind and conscience of man with imagination.

We know that Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God, and also that what is known as media in most visual forms carries an element of sound to it in order to make it more "apealing".

Here we have issues with the presentation of things pertaining to the conscience of man made in Gods image, versus the concience that the world tries to give us.

As for literal video games, like playstation, psp, nintendo, x-box, or even computer and cellphones, these same things do apply even in their seemingly harmless or innocent placement in time spending and concentration of the mind and hearts desire as to the light of the eyes being a lamp to our bodies (Mat 6:22).

The most excersize besides the imagination and mind that a literal video game console can give you is what is known as "hand eye co-ordination" of which is bodily excersize where Godliness covers this area (1Timothy4) in ways that the world does not understand of its own wisdom.

The rest of it is in the principles of imagination where one must ask themselves what their true interest is in wha they are seeing.

Faith is ALWAYS involved in that one renews their mind through te word of God and it is good to set their eyes, mind and doing on as well as keep them in.

Dowry & Lobola pt.1

Theres a difference between roora(lobola based) and MINDA(RUVIMBO BASED-inside & out)

Minda is HUSBANDRY and the aspect of payment removes the foundation of the marriage and submits the relationship to principles of custom and culture or tradition.

Roora/lobola is not dowry and true dowry is a GIFT not a PREREQUISITE. Dowry means "IT IS OK IF YOU DONT HAVE IT, KEEP GOING", and a PAYMENY means "im sorry if yo dont have it you cant do it".

Do u see how people have misconceived the perceptions of their own traditions?

Jesus actualy exposed what i said here when the pharisees and saducees asked him why the disciples ate with unwashed hands.

His response actualy contained the words saying dowry is a CURSE and many people fail but now need to acknowledge this.

Here is his response:

Mat 15:2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

Mat 15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

Mat 15:4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

The law was telling us we ought to honour our husbandry AS a father and mother faithful inside and out, that is honouring your parents. Not honouring man made traditions but GODS.

If you are looking for what Gods tradition is, you get the usage of the word RELIGION. The bible says TRUE RELIGION is VISITING ORPHANS AND WIDOWS.

There's no tradition of walking down an aisle and having a pastor announce you husband and wife as third witness, no this is an age old tradition created by man far longer ago than anyone today can remember.

Mat 15:5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to [his] father or [his] mother, [It is] a >>>gift,<<< by whatsoever thou mightest be >>>>>profited<<<<< by me;
Mat 15:6 And honour not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus ******have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.*****

So dowry in fact causes the COMMANDMENT OF GOD to come to no effect.

Mat 15:7 [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
Mat 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
Mat 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

He just told us that lobola or any tertiary third party requisite for a marriage to be deemed VALID is a curse.

***What GOD has put together let no MAN(or his tradition) separate.***

Mat 15:10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

Mat 15:11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

If youre offended at hearing "paying lobola is a sin(curse)" then you are just as bad as a scribe and pharisee here.

*Mat 15:12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

*****Mat 15:13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.

Chose wisely between dowry rights and the COMMANDMENT OF GOD.

A man and woman are put together BY GOD not by  a third party nor a piece of paper.

"No sex before marriage" is hiding "SEX IS MARRIAGE"  in order to give place to moral-ize MAN MADE TRADITION as a means of foundation for relationships.

This in fact causes more problems than anyone can think of or actually see.

The World And Its 'Naked God'

The World & its "Naked god"

The world is a crazy place. From avenues of thinkings that leave materialism and outwardly shining objectification giving way to the revealing apealing of clothes and wear, to the unrighteous exposition of transact reversal of giving in understanding ones purpose settling it into one of self taken and taking of advantage from as well as of others.

The reason why i entitled this writting "The world and its 'naked god'" is because the TRUE GOD of all ages is fully clothed in his humble discipline of even casting his very own garments of righteous clothing unto all others whom he made in His image.

The utmost reverence toward the clothing and covering of God is given in this scripture that few are ever exposed to meditating on in such a way of understandingjow nakedness and the usage of its apeal tends and derives ones understanding TOWARDS that of idol worship and false teaching or doctrinal understanding of what life is, is about, and should be utilized for.

This is the scripture of Gods clothing:

Revelation  1:13  And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.

Being from the book of revelation and the Spiritual depiction of Gods being before His Seven Candlesticks which represent the seven churches of a church that peoole are, it is safe to say that even God Himself is fully clothed and dressed In RIGHTEOUS outlay towards the eyes in flesh as well as Spirit of His beloved.

*There are numerous other scriptures that spean on clothing:*

(1)Those whom overcome adverse trial and tribulation:

Revelation  3:5  He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. 

(2)Jesus' apeal to his church:

Revelation  3:18  I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

(3) Submission being clothing in itself:

1 Peter  5:5  Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

(4)Gods promise of his glory and habitation of himself within ourselves:

2 Corinthians  5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 
5:2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: 
5:3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.

(5)Jesus asking what the pharisee's expected to see of the son of man and his actions towards others:

Matthew  11:8  But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.

(6)Jesus speaking to people thay they ought to seek His Kingdom first:

Matthew  6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

(7) A demoniac(demon possed man) after encounter with God, now IN RIGHT MIND

Luke  8:35  Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

(8)When the apostiles we're worshiped for performing miracles:

Acts  14:14  Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,.....

(9)Elders of Judgement In Heaven:

Revelation  4:4  And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

(10)The Redeemed from the great tribulation:

Revelation  7:9  After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

(11)Angels:

Revelation  10:1  And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
Revelation  15:6  And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.

(12)THE CHURCH HERSELF:

Revelation  12:1  And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

(13)The Armies of heaven:

Revelation  19:14  And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Now for scriptural relevance and noticeable repetitions sake, do you see how many are noted to have white garment, The signnificance of "purple" linen made clothes and the fact that as God himself is depicted in clothing there are no colours mentioned?

Examine that this is really not a colour schemed approach to understanding but one of individual character, circumstantial relevance and wholy in the liberal LIGHT of what it means "to be clothed in righteousness".

The "naked god" of the world seems to have people caught up in the "colouring" of their dress to be revolved around the exposing of their flesh, which is an outright purposeful hypocracy toward the entire idea and meaningfulness of the concept of clothing itself.
Other areas of life are then affected where a seeming NAKEDNESS of choice in material(wether it be food, clothing, housing, lifestyle, self value or even choice of the apearance of their possesions) which causes people to indulge in the unrighteously transact idolatry of devil worship.

I say "transact" in that when it comes to ones food, the "exchanged" releif of hunger begins to bear with it a drunkeness or high of some sort. When it comes to ones choice of possesion-al appearance, every onlooker of them must be impressed beyond anyone elses choice kind of apearance bearing the same overlapping willful expression to others.

This becomes a politics drunkeness which tends to dictate the development of life and accredits its value in context of lifestyle of which it is safe to call "lifestyle addiction" where the "high" comes from the self adhering principle of discontent or any self perception of not being content.

These are the selfishly enveloped results of the worlds "naked God".

It is good for us to remember in the depiction of Gods clothing that it is described as reaching a total covering.

This does not restrict anyone from their choice in clothing but bring awareness to the elemental exposition of "RIGHTEOUS clothing" which bears the sub elements of PURPOSE, MEANING, REASON, AND INEVITABLE RESEMBLANCE(as to God and not man).

Lets remember that we should not debase our minds and degrade our thinking to gain any pride in the compeling of ones nakedness as a form of clothing because, like it is in the very statement, adversely hypocritical even AGAINST those sub elements of what the concept of clothing is all about.(to cover)

I hope you enjoyed the writting!!!

Stay in your word and remain unwavering in the conscience of God and remind one another exhortingly and admonishingly of this teaching of clothing also warning of the effects that are derived from the worship of the worlds "naked god" which indeed is demonic and of the devil himself.

Jesus loves you!!!
