Two Bills and a Mel: The Fix-it Shop-Filling Station

WARNING: A STRONG POSSIBILITY SOME WILL BE OFFENDED.  DO NOT READ IF YOUR POLITICS COMES BEFORE THE LORD.

A few years ago Mel Gibson was the rage.  Most handsome,  most desirable. Great story, great actor/director, top of his field.

Then the Spirit of God got ahold of him, he made “The Passion of Christ ” movie.  He was warned not to, “it’ll loose money, alienate fans, ruin  your career. ”

It made him bigger and more loved then ever.  Then his life fell apart.  (He fell from grace)  Everyone turned on him.

How about Bill Cosby,  well respected comedian, actor /director, entertainer.  I  loved him as a child, “Noah” and so many other  great sketches on his albums.

As an adult I enjoyed the Cosby Show, loved the whole family.   What happened?

He stood up and said: “Black youngsters needed to pull up their pants, learn to speak English and work hard.”

He received criticism, that was not enough punishment, stuff hidden for  thirty years, now comes out.  Everyone turned on him.  If he did it, he is a sleeze; but why now?  It’s kind of late, isn’t it?

The other Bill, Bill Clinton.  The titular head of a political party.  Lied to the American people,  accused of several rapes, impeached, disgraced.

He Keeps on keeping on,  Nothing hurts him for long.  Why?  He doesn’t  pretend to be a Godly person, abortion is OK, gay marriage is great, socialism is the plan.

The moral of the stories :

If you try to do the right thing, the good thing, the Godly thing.  The Devil and his minions will push and pull to find your weakness,  (secret sin),   untill they ultimately  destroy your usefulness  for good.

You have to be strong in the Lords love to survive.

How sad when the Righteous have fallen.  There is no mercy from the world for them.

If you believe up is down, wrong is right, black is white.

The world is your oyster. “It’s only sex.” “Everyone lies about sex.”  “His intentions were good.”  “He stands for womens rights.”

Sorry if that offends some. 

That is how it appears to me. 

Lord, save us from the judgment of the world. May we judge righteously, carefully and Godly judgment.   Help us to walk in the light.

Forgive us and turn us toward You.
