Faith in Jesus Christ and His Love as Prescribed in the Holy Bible Overcomes Fear - Every FearReader comment on item: The Democrats and Israel Submitted by M. Tovey (United States), Jan 27, 2009 at 18:11 There are some interesting points in the hypothesis presented here, and from a disciple of Jesus Christ's perspective, something to consider in the light of the Holy Bible. We read that from the previous writer's point of view, the Muslim world can expect to reap a great harvest from the politically conspired economic meltdown, from which it seems pure capitalism will only survive marginally for the super rich. Nothing less than a few billion dollars will be necessary to enter that realm. For the plebiscite though, feudal serf status seems to be the direction that most economists can hope for the general population, since in the United States the tax dollars already paid to run the country are earmarked for failed companies executives' bailouts, and more taxes called for by the perpetrators of the meltdown are to be spent in socialist fashion like it was done in the nineteen thirties. Is there a plan for extrication? Yes, but not in the way most might expect. It is becoming clearer that the events preceding the Holy Bible's call for judgment on rogue national incursions into the Middle East are in the final stages of completion. Yes, we know that has been said before, and in the light of Apostle Peter's admonition of patience in the face of scoffers questioning the times of Almighty God, all things will happen in His timing. We can see now that the increase of Islam matches the Biblical expectation of unbelief in what Jesus Christ said coming to its fullness just as He prepares to complete the promises to the Church, which is preparatory to the completion of the promises to Israel. Now those without the Holy Bible and the LORD Jesus Christ as their shield for these times should be wary of the fear mentioned. It is only in the salvation provided for in faith in Jesus Christ that fear is defeated, for His love, grace and mercy is provided in the Word of His comfort and in the Holy Spirit provided as the Comforter. Further, in this disciples of Jesus Christ have His peace as He has promised and delivered. The world, and being in the world, does not provide that peace, and further, that lack of peace will be the source of the fear mentioned. Now the previous writer says 'you will die with your fear.' What he is saying is that he does not have the faith to escape the fear of unbelief from not knowing Jesus Christ. In short, to escape the fear he writes of, and the coming judgment for unbelief, it is suggested (fervently) that praying to Jesus Christ in His Name for forgiveness of one's sins and asking Him to enter the penitent heart is the only sure path to the promise Jesus Christ has given for salvation. Then there is the peace, and if death arrives before Jesus Christ does, then there is no fear there, for His love will carry the believer into His presence, forever.
