Positive, Not Negative

I hear sometimes that people think my blog posts are negative.
I consider them positive.
For example, if I knew there was poisoned food, and I let you eat it, you would become very sick or maybe even die.
However, if I warned you not to eat the food, my advice might just save your life.

That is how I see these posts.
That is the reason I study and write.
I am here to warn others.

If Messiah gives us a warning that results in our destruction if we fail to heed it, why do people think I’m being negative when I point it out to them?
It is for several reasons:
1.  It is not what they’ve been taught their whole lives. It calls into question what their parents and their grandparents believe.
It is a hard pill to swallow.
Jeremiah tells us this is exactly what will happen, though.
Jeremiah 16:19-20

2.  They don’t care for the truth. They would rather stick with their lies — the ones that Jeremiah warned us about.
Messiah says those who prefer their lies over the truth will not be in the kingdom of heaven.
Revelation 22:14-15

3.  People simply don’t believe that our entire religious system could get this wrong. It just isn’t possible for that many people to be wrong.
Messiah tells us what will happen to teachers who get it wrong. He also says what will happen to their followers.
Matthew 23:13
Messiah tells us few will find the truth, the narrow path.
Matthew 7:13-14

I don’t write these posts to criticize others.
I don’t write these posts to condemn.
I write them to make others aware of the warnings in scripture, especially the direct quotes of Messiah.
I share these things out of love.
Believe it or not…
