God Comes First

Originally written on 11/2/23

God comes first. Everything else, including other people, including yourself, is subordinated to God. There is an active push to put human beings and their feelings above God. There’s a push to worship certain human beings as gods. This is idolatry. This is not Judeo-Christianity.

As Jesus said,

“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

“For I am come to SET A MAN AT VARIANCE AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND THE DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND THE DAUGHTER IN LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER IN LAW.

“And A MAN’S FOES SHALL BE THEY OF HIS OWN HOUSEHOLD.

“He that loveth father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

“And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after Me, is not worthy of Me.” (Matthew 10: 34-38)

The globalists are also pushing a potpourri religious paradigm on the world: universalism, which adds elements of disparate religions together and requires the world’s population to dabble in other religions and to worship other gods. This is expressly prohibited in Judeo-Christianity and once again is a form of idolatry.

And God spake all these words, saying,

“I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

“Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.

“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

“Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me”; (Exodus 20: 1-5)

But at the center of both efforts is the desire for the elites to be worshipped as gods themselves. And they have to destroy the foundational belief that God comes first in order to replace God in the hierarchy of importance with themselves. They start off this movement by claiming all people should be placed above God. It has become, therefore, offensive to people who buy into the human-first mentality when anyone puts God ahead of a human being. But the end goal is for the elites alone to have worth — not God and not the rest of us. To contradict that this human-first paradigm is compatible with true Judeo-Christianity, I offer the following Bible quotes.

In Matthew 15, Jesus talks about how you can’t replace God’s commandments with those of men:

But He answered and said unto them, “Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

“For God commanded, saying, ‘HONOUR THY FATHER AND MOTHER’: and, ‘HE THAT CURSETH FATHER OR MOTHER, LET HIM DIE THE DEATH.’

“But ye say, ‘Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, “It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me”;

“‘And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free.’ Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

“Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

“‘THIS PEOPLE DRAWETH NIGH UNTO ME WITH THEIR MOUTH, AND HONOURETH ME WITH THEIR LIPS; BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR FROM ME.

“‘BUT IN VAIN THEY DO WORSHIP ME, TEACHING FOR DOCTRINES THE COMMANDMENTS OF MEN.’ ” (Matthew 15: 3-9)

People are sold on the idea that they will be held to no standard, have limitless approval, and unrestricted exercise of their own will if people will prioritize human beings over God. The idea they are sold is that if people are allowed to do whatever they want they will no longer be bitter or vengeful. Only the people behind the push to drive God from the worldview of society know better. People’s wills conflict with each other. Some people, including the elites, are also driven to try to subordinate the will of others to their own.

When people put human beings ahead of God, people don’t rise in status equally. For the new system to work, a small number become the false gods while the majority become masochistic slaves. And it isn’t the masochism popularized in fiction. You aren’t beloved of the sadist, and there is no pathway to become their equal. You can see this reality playing out now. Before it was made clear that if you didn’t comply with these people you would be punished — you deserved to be punished. Now you are told you deserve to be punished by just existing, and your persecutor is filled with self-righteous indignation if you attempt to avoid that punishment, even if that punishment is death. There is no discussion allowed for whether the punishment is deserved or the severity of the punishment is justified. In the end, putting human beings ahead of God has been sold as the ultimate in humanitarianism and kindness. Instead, it is a pathway for world system elites to exercise power over others. The real God has been labeled as mean and unkind. In reality, His way is the way that allows people to have a life free from enslavement — enslavement from sin and enslavement from sadism.

Be forewarned. If you give up God in order to appease those who are clinging to the unrealistic dream of universal acceptance and approval, you will be subjected to the view of humanity of the elite — that they are the only ones who matter. For it is God who holds that all human life has intrinsic value:

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, ‘THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR, and hate thine enemy.’

“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

“That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” (Matthew 5: 43-45)

So, if you, therefore, reject God then only the elite will be seen as having any worth or right to life.

In Matthew 22 it states:

Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked Him a question, tempting Him, and saying,

Master, which is the great commandment in the Law?

Jesus said unto him, “‘THOU SHALT LOVE THE LORD THY GOD WITH ALL THY HEART, AND WITH ALL THY SOUL, AND WITH ALL THY MIND.’
“This is the first and great commandment.

“And the second is like unto it, ‘THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR AS THYSELF.’

“On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” (Matthew 22: 35-40)

Notice it is love thy neighbor as thyself, not above God. God has predominance over both neighbor and self. As Jesus said in Matthew 7, “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the Law and the Prophets.” (Matthew 7: 12)

But God still comes first. Treating others as you would have them treat you is kindness. When you put God first, everything else falls into place.

As it says in the Bible, God is no respecter of persons. As Moses states:

For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward: (Deuteronomy 10: 17)

The Bible talks of Jesus in this way:

Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle Him in His talk.

And they sent out unto Him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that Thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest Thou for any man: for Thou regardest not the person of men. (Matthew 22: 15-16)

In the epistle of James it reads,

Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the [Or, that] kingdom which He hath promised to them that love Him?

But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?

Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?

If ye fulfil the royal law according to the Scripture, “THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR AS THYSELF,” ye do well:

But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the Law as transgressors.

For whosoever shall keep the whole Law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

(James 2: 5-10).

God doesn’t value elites above people with less power.

As Jesus said, “And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” (Matthew 23:12)

In conclusion, nothing good comes from allowing elites to try to drive God from our society, so they can rule over us instead.
