ROBOTS. Part-Two.

Humanities Greed.

From science fiction to reality, many aspects of the Robot has many good and practical uses. But then comes the horror of something going wrong! This stems from mans greed, the wanting of more and more.

With a mass production line, comes the cutting of corners and saftey. We already have seen this in trains, aircraft, shipping such as the Titanic. Many disaster, including bad management in relation to the Space Shuttle crashing.

Humanity continues to practice slavery today on different levels, but it all comes back to greed and selfishness.

Proverbs 30:15,   Matthew 23:25,   Mark 7:21-22,   1 Peter 2:15.

ROBOT’s. Part-One.

Invented and built by Humans.

The Robot in science-fiction has been around for a long time, but today many aspects of our daily lives are controlled and influenced  by robotic engineering! But most of us are not even aware of any of it going on around us. The origins of the word ‘robot comes from a Russian word, meaning a servant and was really first used by the great Sci-Fi writer Isaac Asimov.

Today robots are used in a host of fields, such as the nuclear industry, automated car production lines and auto-pilots in aircraft, helicopters and shipping. These can be best described, as pre- programmned machines.

But things are changing at a rapid rate, as the first Asimo robots are now coming into service both as expensive toys and research tools.

There new lines are self thinking machines, their brains work on the minds of mice and they rely on touch. One new device is the wall to wall hoovering model, which is left on the floor to its own devices.

History. Part-One.

Conflicts and Wars.

This is a part of the human condition Sin, it leads us to do what we want to without considering the outcome at a later point. Humanity has always had the problem of disagreements from the family tiff to political, religious rows. Usally someone has offered their services of mediations and this has calmed the situation down.

But as we have seen on our televisons recently many lands are going through various phases of Revoloutions, with horrible violence. It is almost always the woman and children that suffer in these situations. Apart from the Arab Spring, the world is seening rioting and terror in Venuzuela, Thailand, Bosnia, Turkey and now the Ukraine.

Many of these conflicts have a deep rooted Sectarianism to them, which the Media is desperatly trying to hide from us with other names. Despite all of this as believers in Jesus, we have to push on through showing no favoritism. Instead we need to pray for a resolve quicly and a restoration of elected government.

Ideology.

Ideology, the ideas of men.

When we look at the world today we are drawn to think of the many closed lands and societies, that do not have or want to have our concepts and what we describe as freedoms.

These nations seem to be closed and controlled, such as North-Korea, China, Cuba and yet there are many lands near and far who practice similar conditions, such as Saudi-Arabia, Iran, Algeria, Sudan, Belarus and the list could go on and on.

Many follow the ideology of men and the party or a system or a king, religion or great leader. Some keep to the ethical code of their revolution. But what does mark them out is all who oppose must be imprisoned for a long time or killed.

It is valuable to read books in relation to Ray Bradbury and Farenheight 451 and George Orwells 1984, with the various films. Both these men were writing about conditions in 1938-1948. They were trying to warn us that any society can turn from what it is now into an idelogical dictatorship.

My Valentine. Part-Two.

Practice.

We are at this day of romance and love, but in these islands and also in N-America many will not be able to get together tonight or even this weekend. Love is not all about meals, cars, romance and roses, especially when we who have faith in Jesus know it is much more.

Today and throughout the next few days we will have the opportunity to share the love of Jesus within us, with those around us. This may be in providing a free place of rest, someone to confide in, cooking meals and so it goes on.

We must not let ourselves be selfish in these acts, expecting a big thank you. Instead we must just do it not expecting anything in return.

Matthew 5,  5:40-48.

My Valentine. Part-One.

Love and Sex.

Today people are claiming that they are born the way they are, the killer, the Gay, selfish, good?

But this is nothing new for if you read the book of Ecclesiastes  ‘Nothing is new under the Sun.’

This is the truth, humanity is in the circle or cycle of Sin. God does not forbid us to love, we can love our cat and dog or other pet, we can love people, even of the same sex.

But we cannot have sex with our cat or dog, man or woman, that is outside normal relations between a man and woman.

Everything that is not within His order is evil and abhorrent to Him.

Exodus  22:19,  Leviticus 18:22-23,  19:5,  20:13,   20:15-16,  Deuteronomy 27:21,  Romans 1:26-27,  Jude 1:7.

Seeds and Grass.

God Provides for Us.

The bible tells us that it is God who made the world and everything in it. We do not really know if it was created in six days or millions of years. Perhaps one day we will discover that the whole solar system and other planets, if we ever get to another star were all made at around the same time!   Psalm 104:14.

God gave to us grass for animals and cattle to eat, He also gave humans seeds, herbs and grasses, so that they could sow them and produce crops. Today there is much famine and economic failure, along with wars and displacement of people because of natural disasters.

Multi-national argriculture companies are monopolising on the supply of seeds now to impoverished parts of the world, they are genetically modifying them to be clones. This means that despite them having great survival potential, they cannot produce seeds as a natural plant would.

So the price rises and governments are blackmailed to change policies to suit Western ways of thinking.

Genesis 1:11-12,   29,   2:5,  9,   4:12,   Job 28:5,   1 Corinthians 3:7.

Zyclone-B. Part-Two.

Denial and Revisionism.

We know that there are many historians across the globe who write lies about the events of the Nazi-Holocaust/Ha’Shoah.  It is theywho have chosen to follow their own path and beliefs, but the dangers of their denial also includes what they believe after 1945?

There have been many wars and Genocides since 1945, Cambodia, China, Rwanda and Burundi. Now we have these recent conflicts in iraq, Egypt, Israel, Libya and Syria. What kind of Revisionism and denial is now being written today to suit certain agendas.

What do we as Born again believers in Jesus do!  Will we just sit on the fence and say nothing, will we refuse to speak out and act as many of our brothers and sisters did in Nazi-Germany, until it was too late?

Hebrews 13:6,   1 Peter 3:14-15.

‘I Have a Dream.’ Part-Two.

Rosa Parks.

The little ordinary people are the ones who make history and start movements. Rosa Parks was an ordinary black lady, who refused to give up her seat on a bus for a white man. Thus was born the Civil Rights Movement in America,

That movement inspired the troubles in N-Ireland, Aparthied in South-Africa and many other conflicts world-wide.

God calls people to believe in Him, through His Son Jesus and yet it is many ‘Christian based societies around the world, who practice Racism, Segregation and Sectarianism.

They claim to follow the bible and the teachings of Jesus and yet they are the first to be anti-Jewish and form groups such as the Ku Klux Klan to intimidate and drive out or suppress those they feel are inferior to them.

Psalm 27:3,   46:2,   Proverbs 3:7,   Malachi 3:5,   Matthew 10:26,   Luke 8:50,    Hebrews 13:6,   1 Peter 3:14, Revelation 2:10.

‘I have a Dream! Part-One.

Dr. Martin Luther King.

These are perhaps the most profound words spoken in the 20th Century and now it would seem that they have been fulfilled?  It is some times hard to believe that black people in Britain and the US are still considered not fully accepted into society today.

Racism and segregation continue, perhaps more in Europe than it does anywhere else in the ‘Christian world. One could include Australia and New Zealand to, who have problems with allowing the native peoples there own rights in their own countries.

The Sin in our hearts is great, we tend to think of lies, theft, selfishness and seek to get right with God. Yet we are not able to see the plight and oppression of our neighbours?

Exodus 22:7-11,  Psalm 15:3,    Matthew 5:43,    Luke 10:29.
