Dispatches From Awareness: The start of it all

I have the experience of living about 15 years in the future. It's not something I could put on a resume or bring up at a job interview, but its' something that shapes my life on a daily basis. I don't have a time machine to skip out on, but I do have all the modern communication... excuse me "modern"... communication techniques, and a spiritual demeanor, a healthy science education, and a blessed set of ethics. With these tools I have slowly assembled the future.

This is not first to educate you about the future. There will be time for that. I've given out all the information everywhere I can. I cannot push information into your mind, but if you are pulling I can supply it. It is selfishly about my own experience knowing this future, knowing many other things, and my reactions. This is the account of a movement.

Then he said romans 14:13.

"13Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way. 14As one who is in the Lord Jesus, I am fully convinced that no food is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean. 15If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died. 16Do not allow what you consider good to be spoken of as evil. 17For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, 18because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.

19Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. 20Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble. 21It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother to fall.

22So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself by what he approves. 23But the man who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin." -www.biblegateway.com

Life is by faith as well as God's truth. This passage has guided me often. I could tell you straight up that it's about money, oil, and power, and how these things have engulfed the world, but without faith and God's love I am just judging and wasting my time and breath. Sometimes I feel like I am wasting my keystrokes on the net, but I blog not because I want, but because I care and know, and have faith that whatever I type in faith is used by God to change the world.

The internet is one of my favorite mediums of communication and resources of research. This post is actually in a blog. If it is ever published or reaches you on paper, God bless you, it's probably 8 months out of date by now. Today is July 20, 2006, as it says on my header. Publishing a book takes about six months or longer. I recently read from some news agency that blogging news is old after 36 hours. It is continuous update, even at night.

From my AIM profile:
"The movement spans all eras. who cares what time it is or what we're trying to do, though we do it. it is 1966 as much as 2006, as much as 2016, as much as 2046. love is still the answer. being forced to chase money is slavery. peace is our profession. God is great and we are saved by faith. Through faith will come your works. Amen."

I don't want to boast about what accomplishments I have witnessed or victories I feel I have been part of or participated in. My work is God's, not my own. Without God I am nothing.
