Chaplain's Corner
Have you ever wondered why so many seeds that you plant don't grow? You have studied God's Word long enough to know what you are talking about. The facts that you share with others are biblical. What you have learned is so very clear to you. Why can't others understand what seems so simple to you? Here's the reason why!
Romans 11:8 (According as it is written, "God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear".) unto this day.
There is something special about this. The word "slumber" is katanuxis" (kat-an'-oox-is), and it means a prickling sensation, as of the limbs asleep. That is the spirit God has given the minds of some. This is the reason that sometimes your precious seeds of truth fallon deaf ears. Don't give up, but don't be too disappointed, when others can't hear with understanding. Their minds are asleep. Those sleeping limbs will awaken, when the Holy Spirit speaks through you as you are delivered up before antichrist. Why would God pour a stupor on some? I believe it is for their own protection. If one of them was to see the truth, and then worship antichrist, it would be the unforgiveable sin. But, don't forget we have the millennium, as well.
My nursing home boards are becoming rather barren. If you know of a comrade in a nursing home in this area, please notify me via letter or phone call and I will gladly put their names on the board and visit them.
