I affirm; Love creates. In part through William Booth.


MORNING POST
Well Ive heard the saying in a pigs ear, well how about a dogs ear, courtesy of Buster.
The sums of London were the stomping grounds for drunkenness and skulduggery. William Booth founded the Salvation Army to battle against that using the armoury of Gods Grace and power.
The Salvation Army has always had its slogan, "Blood and Fire." I am for that in the things of God. We know of cleansing by blood of Christ. The references to God`s workings often have to do with a holy flame. John the Baptist in Matthew 3:11 said, "I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance.... he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire. Earthly fire will purify metals and cleanse the ground. The holy flame will purify our souls.
There ought to be a birth from above and within. There should be a terror of seeing ourselves in violent contrast to the holy, holy, holy God. A W Tozer said that unless we come into this place of conviction and pain, I am not sure how deep and real our repentance will ever be.
Before we go off to change the world, or save others we should save ourselves. We do this by surrendering our whole being to Almighty God. We allow ourselves to be possessed by the Holy Spirit and be as children under its direction.
So my brothers and sisters. We live in exiting times, where spiritual mystics and physicists are coming closer to mutual understing of the nature of the universe. When we set of with good intentions and works, we will find ourselve aided by an invisable power greater than electricity, or micro waves. The power of God can work through us and for us. It is pure distilled 100% Love.
Coming up for six in the morning and I am going to take the Buster out now for a little run. Have a great day. Peace and love, pass it on. Your brother Peter.
