A World View: Mefirst, USA

In the
1st
chapter
of the Gospel of John, the Baptist pointed to Jesus
and said, “Behold the Lamb of
God…” When two of his disciples heard
him say this, they began to follow Jesus. Now Jesus
saw them and asked them what it was that they wanted.
“Lord’” they said. “Where do
you live?” Jesus said, “Come and
see.” Each of us, as born-again Christians must
follow Jesus and see where He lives. I realize that
the Bible says that He ascended on high and is at the
Right Hand of God, but if Jesus would have told those
two disciples even a tenth of what we know today,
they would have turned and ran as far and as fast as
they could to get away from Him. For you see, Jesus
is the Word and the Word was with God and the Word
was God and the Word was with God in the beginning.
Jesus, the Christ of God, is before all things and
transcends all things. Where does Jesus live?
Everywhere! But this isn’t my point, for the
Bible says that though Jesus, “Who, being in
very nature God, did not consider equality with God
something to be grasped, but made Himself nothing,
taking on the very nature of a servant, being made in
human likeness. And being found in appearance as a
man”, he humbled Himself and became obedient
unto death –even death on a cross! Jesus, who
should have been
served by all
humanity, came to
serve all of
humanity! He told His disciples just as His Word also
tells us, “The greatest among you should be
like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one
who serves.” I saw a commercial the other day
for the Hummer 3 vehicle. It begins at a
child’s playground where the children of one
mother, pushes past a child of another mother. The
other mother speaks up and says that her child should
have gone first for he was next in line. But the
mother of the children who pushed themselves first
said, “Well, I guess we’re first.”
The camera is on the humiliated mother as she is
shown as she is thinking, “Well, I’ll be
first from now on.” The second part of the
commercial shows this humiliated mother now
triumphant, and more important –first! For she
purchased a Hummer and everybody knows that those who
drive Hummers –are first! One of the main
reasons I want Jesus to come back and rapture His
Church is so that we can escape Mefirst, USA. I am so
tired of Jim Gross, when Jim Gross puts Jim Gross and
what Jim Gross wants –first. Jim Gross wants
Jim Gross to be first and isn’t happy until Jim
Gross is first. Jim Gross knows that what Jim Gross
wants is best for Jim Gross and Jim Gross won’t
settle for any thing less than –Jim Gross. Are
you sick of hearing about Jim Gross? Good, now
replace Jim Gross with your own name and you be one
step closer to boarding the train out of Mefirst,
USA.
