From Gary... Topsy-turvey


For some reason I seem to be able to remember doing this.  Obviously, the memory is a quite dim one, but in today's crazy world, viewing the world in a topsy-turvy way is becoming normal. Sex changes are becoming a "normal" topic. Same sex marriages are "legal". Islam is infiltrating the US and murdering Christians on a world wide basis. We have high school graduates who can not write in cursive. Congress does nothing about our debt- but raise the legal debt limit (again and again). There is no longer a preponderance of two parent homes in America. Sin is not condemned; it is "legalized". Our police are "fair game" for anyone with an agenda. And, worst of all, God is being systematically removed from every aspect of our society!!! But, there was a time when the world was changing in another way... 

Acts, Chapter 17 (WEB)

1 Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.  2 Paul, as was his custom, went in to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,  3 explaining and demonstrating that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.” 

  4  Some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas, of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and not a few of the chief women.  5 But the unpersuaded Jews took along some wicked men from the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.  6 When they didn’t find them, they dragged Jason and certain brothers before the rulers of the city, crying, “These who have turned the world upside down have come here also,  7 whom Jason has received. These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus!”  8 The multitude and the rulers of the city were troubled when they heard these things.  9 When they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.


Since it has happened once- it CAN HAPPEN AGAIN!!! Be a part of change for GODLINESS!!! Turn the world on its head- one person at a time.

ps. I like this kid's choice of books!!! I guess upside-down pictures of dogs makes sense!!!!
