This present evil world

 This corona virus pandemic has truly exposed the ignorance and spiritual blindness of the majority of us who professed to be believers in Jesus Christ. The saints of God have been forewarned saying; “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities” (Revelation 18:4-5).

What the saints have to take into deep consideration is the fact that, we are of God, but the whole world (age) lies under the sway of the wicked one, because the dragon, Satan the devil has given his power, his throne, and great authority to the leaders of this world (1John 5:19; Revelation 13:2).

And so the Apostle Paul’s admonition to the churches is; “Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen” (Galatians 1: 3-5),

God’s people, the saints, although they are living in this world, they are not of this world as confirmed by Jesus Christ in His prayer to the Father on behalf of His disciples saying; “But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world” (John 17:13-16).

It is therefore ludicrous to see church leaders surrendering themselves and leading others to the deceitful ploy of the workers of iniquity, deceiving them in believing that this call for mandatory vaccination is an act of love towards our neighbor to prevent the spread of the Corona virus and its variants. What a sham?

Let me say from the outset that true Agape love is expressed in three ways; it is first and foremost from and to God, for God is love. This we called our upward calling, then it is trickled down to us which is our inward calling, for one cannot give what they don’t have, and thirdly, we extend love to others which is the outward calling. So whenever true love is expressed it must originate from the Father and expressed to Him because He has the preeminence.

I therefore beg to ask the question, who has the preeminence and who receives the honor and glory when mandatory vaccination is imposed on the people, especially on those who profess to believe in Jesus Christ? Ask ourselves one simple question, that is, why should a healthy human being be mandated to be vaccinated when there is over 95% chance of survival if infected by the virus?

What does mandatory vaccination implies? It implies that this is the best and surest solution in handling this pandemic and therefore, our immune system which God designed, created and placed in our bodies to protect our body from outside invaders, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and toxins (chemicals produced by microbes) and is made up of different organs, cells, and proteins that work together to defend our body, is of its own strength and ability, insufficient, weak and incapable of defending and protecting us from a virus without the help and assistance of a vaccine which man in his wisdom (science) has created.

 What this therefore implies is that, the wisdom of men is more powerful than God, which is quite the opposite of what we as believers should be demonstrating, for we have admonished by the apostle Paul saying; “that our faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.”

Therefore, for religious leaders to get vaccinated and encouraging their followers and supporters to do likewise, is absurd, blasphemous, profane, idolatrous and shameful because the end result is the defilement of the temple of God which is our human body and which will ultimately deprive the individual from inheriting the kingdom of God., what a sad state of affairs.

But truly, these times of ignorance God has overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent.
