What We Learn From The Wise Men




BY: R.S. Helms
Part One

My Pastor hit on a great sermon this morning that can be applied to our present condition of our Christian nation, the greatest nation in the history of our planet.  Although I will not use his sermon, what he said to us dealt more to the church and the individual; however, I do believe some of the points are appropriate for the Christian as well as non-Christian. 
The parable manner of the teaching struck a chord with me and I hope it does with you as well.  I basically wrote this to post in the Black Robe Regiment, a website for Christian patriots and Christian clergy along with Christian lay people who care about this nation; just wish we all spent more time here but it is a definite challenge of time for much involvement, and yet it would perhaps be one of the best places to spend time.
 Perhaps it is due to the general nature of multi-denominational, and several different theological views, that we hesitate to spend the time in dialogue over the concerns of our nation, which although common and central for discussion and encouragement, may lay cause for divisions. 
For me, I have always held to the idea of where difference is an issue, I promote the practice to ‘agree to disagree’ and move on to the common theological ground to discuss issues. 
Okay, now moving on, to the story (parable, my parable).  It preaches a good sermon, and just a great “reach out and touch me moment” for Christian patriots.  During this Christmas season and the decades old “reason for the season” and the debate (battle), of anti-Christ, commercialism, which is not spilled over with more “bah-humbug” about the wrong day, and Christians should not celebrate, because of old testament festivals and pagan festivals. 
Nonetheless, when I was still a Grinch, and let all the grumbling sort of spoil my season, I got all wrapped up in such irrelevant joy robbing dribble that I actually could not enjoy Christmas.  Coming from a poor family, and watching my dear mother struggle to make Christmas as special as she could, only to see her disappointment and her feeling of defeat, I determined not to go through the same thing, so I actually found myself in worse condition, just plain miserable, and miserable to be around. 
Even after Jesus took over my life, the attitude hung around for some time.  Nonetheless, the miracle of Christmas slowly replaced the misery with joy and celebration.  Perhaps that is why I do not get caught up in all the debates over it all and just simply celebrate Christmas, and the miracle of Jesus’ birth, and the festivities of the season; the peace and joy that is simply a natural peace and joy, a blessing beyond understanding.
This part one of “What We Learn From The Wise Men,” is primarily for a long overdue post in the Black Robe Regiment, a good time and place to seek forgiveness for a lot of inactivity.  In addition, it is a fine post for my blog with the seasonal flair and admonition of setting your Christian attitude for peace and joy. 
A time when we all need to stop complaining about all the various negative misconceptions and negative false narratives, which Satan employs every year round bout this time, to rob Christians of their peace and joy in the Lord.  It is time to forget about our narcissistic human nature, and enjoy the festivities of the Lord Jesus.
It only takes a bit of a Christian attitude adjustment, it doesn’t hurt, and people may actually begin to enjoy your company.  Not dampening their joy by watching you in your suffering through whatever trivial issue that stole your blessing. 
My dear friends, it makes no difference what day of the year, the commercialism, or anti-Christ in Christmas demagoguery that the world can through at us, the impulse to go in debt, and the frantic search for the right gift, the over abundancy of toys and gifts to our already partially indoctrinated children, and let the Spirit bless you in your peace and joy… you remember, that catchy little phrase once found in many greeting cards, peace and joy, and good tidings, to you and suddenly there may appear angles singing and praising God.
Who knows, with the right heart, the Grinch and Scrooges may join in and be blessed.

God or HAARP?

  07/29/2023  ~  R.S. HELMS  ~  By: R.S. Helms … 7.28.2023 God or HAARP? R.S. Helms … Bob’s Opinion  … Revised and edited … Every day I get around 125-175 emails, from people who follow my blog, or that I follow, Some write for various right-wing social news outlets, and some are even researchers and investigative journalists.  We are not in close relationships other than exchanging opinions and research for connecting the dots between the cabals of the left and the Shadow Government, which is engaged in a fifty-year-old coup, now headed by a slimy demon, or in the least, a demon-possessed corrupt racist called Obama, the present Shadow President.  Of course, if our black population that thinks he is “for black equality” really doesn’t know anything about Obama and his ilk, they are only using the black, the Hispanic, the Muslim, and even the poor and middle classes to chain them to the Washington D.C. Plantation, they would be as upset as...

Mind Control is Real ...

  Aa---HAARP – MIND CONTROL? By: R.S. Helms  Bob’s Opinion 5.18.2023 Before you read this opinion story, you would do well to read the ten-page Summary of “The Mind Controllers” wanttoknow.info written by Armen Victorian.   Could it be, that mind control through HAARP technology is why people seem so bizarre and crazy? Of course, it is.   All a person has to do is read the headlines and a couple of the more bizarre stories about the left and their cabal of special interest groups, and listen to a few leftist interviews on mainstream media and social media to ask yourself: “What planet did this lunatic come from?”  But for the Demonized “Conspiracy Theorists” trying to write an opinion, some of the most bizarre statements simply offer new open doors of research and dot-connecting. I have been researching critical evidentiary documents and articles by research scientists just to support my opinion on the government’s involvement in the radical winter weather we ha...

The ambitious presumption of what God wants

The ambitious presumption of what God wants, can lead to ruin in every corner of our lives and eventually our faith.   There have been good churches, which are growing and doing fine, they invest in the community outside the church, as well as the members of the congregation.   However we cut it, one thing must remain  foremost in the mind of each individual and that is doing the will of God not the will of man as it is in my own understanding.   At one point in time, it was godly ambition that moved the church forward, and it was a time when being a Christian was popular.   Now being Christian is no longer popular, and political correctness has went to the forefront of social popularity.   Churches have slowly moved from what is righteous in the eye of God to the what is acceptable in the eye of the social environment.   The enticement of growing larger churches have set in action a tidal wave of user friendly churches to meet the demand of ...
