Judicial System

 


    I don't like talking politics because it gets people so riled up.  I hate arguing over things that never change.  Why argue if no one is offering a solution?  Why get so upset, when people are not willing to do what it takes to bring about change?  Then there are the people that fight against change.  It is all debilitating and exhausting.  
    God set it out where there is no need to argue.  If we follow his blueprint, then things will go smoothly.  We all have to adapt to what is happening around us.  We all have to adjust, but when the boundaries and expectations are clear, then there is no need to argue.  We are responsible for each other.  We are responsible for keeping the judicial system just.  It begins with fearing God's judgment.
    We need to give our best to God because he is giving us His best.  That means we need to give Him our attitude, money, feelings, and politics.  We have to be willing to do what it takes to purge evil without any tolerance for His plan to work.  We want His plan to work because it makes life better.  That means we have to purge evil from our lives, school, church, court, and everywhere in between.
    If we can't settle thing individually, then it needs to go to the church.  The pastor should know the Bible well enough to do justice.  That in itself earns him respect.  If it is bigger than the church, like murder, lawsuits, or assault, then we need to take it to the courts.  
    We need leaders: presidents, kings, governors, and judges.  We need to allow whomever God chooses to do his job.  Don't ignore whom God chooses for whom you prefer.  It will end in disaster.  
    The leaders typically have wealth to be able to take care of their people, not to grow more wealth.  They need to have a steady heart to be able to deal with the intense stressors that come with the job.  They needs to be educated and put God first to be successful and not harm the people.  He has to be humble to be able to gain perspective to lead justly.  It starts with leading by example.
