Intended vs Corruption

Did you get a chance to see the imagine I painstakingly pieced together for my image?  If you are using an I-Phone, well I know from testing that it does not appear.

On the left is the idyllic image of life in the Garden of Eden, as seen by a Renaissance painter.  Adam being handed an apple by Eve, as she picks herself another one, while the serpent (Satan) watches from above.

Contrast this with what has happened since the fall of mankind by that act of rebellion: no innocence.  Relationships between man and woman have been attacked and destroyed by Satan.  Love has become a completely misunderstood word - meaning passion, and little else.  Sex, now called love, has become perverse and now dominates our culture.  Even in Christian circles, perversion is now called normal and blessed by God.  (Hint: God never blesses when one person is treated like a piece of meat!  This is defiling of the image of God, He has placed in each of us.)

From Adam and Eve sitting under a tree in the garden, in innocence, to the multi-billion dollar pornography and prostitution syndicates.  We are flooded with movies, tv shows, magazines, catalogs, shops and toys all with one goal in mind - to separate you even further from God and what He created for joy.

We now live in a world where there is no innocence.  Where lusts drive all mankind from one passion to another.  Man is lost in a world of his own destruction and making.

And yet ...

That does not have to be true about you what-so-ever.

No matter where you are in your life - there is hope.  It is out there, it exists, it is calling your name, you just have to have ears and a heart to listen.

Yes, this new blog is about the fall of mankind, it is about the world of sin that we wallow in and complain halfheartedly about.

To what purpose?

To wake the sleeping Christians of this generation up!
To show a better way for those whom are seeking that better way.
To at times tell you of how or where in this world you can help.
To add a touch of humor occasionally.
And of course, provide links to music videos I enjoy or will drive home a point!

I thank you for visiting, I hope you check back occasionally because if God blesses this Blog, then it might turn out better than the, Thoughts From The Little Apple, and how well it was received, attacked and destroyed numerous times!
