Zion Awaits You

     Hello Ireland and Saudi Arabia!! Jesus does indeed love you!!!

     If "the whole world is under the sway of the wicked one", don't you think it would behoove us to "get out of Dodge, or the entanglements of this world, a.k.a Babylon? Babylon represents man and his acheivements, desires, goals, dreams, without God in His life. The book of Ecclesiastes sums this kind of existence up when it repeatedly exclaims that "all is vanity," speaking of the meaninglessness of life when man instead of God is on the throne. It is not only "meaningless" but dangerous and murderous to one's spiritual life.
     Knowing what it means to leave this existence, and seeking to either find Him or rediscover Him and what that may look like in your life, requires you to seek Him for revelation. He will lead you to His city, that of Zion where He resides. You may have to go through the wilderness first, though, so that He can remove those things out of you which you had picked up while living in Babylon. In fact, you not only may have to go there, you will have to go there. He calls us to that place of being alone with Him. We, His ecclesia, means "the called out ones." We are called out of the world's ways, systems, and values in everything we say, do and think by His cleansing fire on the inside of us. This will require decisions to make, as being in Him, is a totally new life.
     Probably the most dangerous position to be in, is to try and straddle the fence, with one foot in Babylon and the other in Zion. (Laodicean church) Babylon represents man, and Zion represents God. We must choose. Cast down your idols; anything or anyone that you put before God and His ways and will.  Today is the day of salvation-choose life, by choosing Jesus and He will lead you in the paths of righteousness for His names' sake! And, "if you endure to the end, you shall be saved."
