DO NOT CONFORM TO CONFORMITY!

Romans 12:2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

This scripture is in the context of laying down our lives. At the same time, it is loud and clear that we are not to conform to the pattern of the world. I take this to mean that I should not conform to any pattern of the world, but to question the patterns of this world. When I refuse to take something that someone told me as fact or truth, I submit it to God and I think sensibly about it. I take it back to the way God made me. I ask what is natural? What is best? What makes sense? Who is telling the truth? Who has something to gain by a lie?

Acts 17:10 As soon as it was night, the brothers sent Paul and Silas away to Berea. On arriving there, they went to the Jewish synagogue. 11Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.

When I think about this scene, I think about how believable Paul was. I think about his message, his quoting the scriptures. He was bringing the message of Christ sacrificed for all, as he spurred others to lay down their lives, and to love each other, to love God, to even love their enemies. With that being said, it was NOBLE for the Bereans to question if his words were true. How much more should we question the words of those who are making money off of the sick? (more profit than all other businesses combined) Those who are injecting an invisible concoction of dead flesh of animals and babies, disease, and toxic chemicals into our infants? Those who have no accoutability or liability? Now, understanding that the bible does not address vaccines as vaccines....we look to primary sources, to testamonies, to our intuition, and to our Counselor, the Holy Spirit, ultimately trusting that God made us perfect and that man cannot make us better! HE is the healer! HIS creation is there for our USE.

James 1:27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

"Polluted by the world" means so much to me...Of course it means that I should not allow myself to backslide in my spritual walk. But it also speaks to me in a physical sense. This body, belongs to God, even if it is flesh. It is the temple for the Holy Spirit. We must be conscious of everything that goes into our bodies. We should not be polluted in our mind, our flesh or our spirit. Think for yourself, take care of yourself, and be sure of yourself.
