Off Mission

A sincere saint recently spoke an interesting excuse that seemed like a reasonable rationale for missionaries that were cv inoculated: Missionaries couldn't travel abroad without the vaccinations...

It has taken me a couple of days to have this concept bubble up to the surface of my awareness, since conversation in our group was tangential and multi levelled. Here is what I know, dear reader: God does not need us to save others, since he predestines salvation for his chosen remnant. To believe that we must jump through man made hoops laced with toxins that poison healthy human bodies, in order to do the work God has for us, is insanely prideful. We must not believe that sin is blessed by God, or that our testimony is rich with truth, when the vehicle we ride in on, is a big fat hairy lie from the devil. 

Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Do not err, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning (James 1:13-17)

We are tempted with evil, but it is never of God. Lust tempts men, and when they are drawn in and enticed, sin is brought forth. Sin leads to death

God gives good and perfect gifts, and he cannot be accused of tempting or enticing a saint, to commit sin, in order to accomplish his purposes. God doesn't play good cop, bad good, white then black, light then darkness with shadows looming, holy then evil, pure then putrified. If being injected as ordered by wicked government authorities, is the requirement in order to share the gospel abroad, or to travel across borders, then I suggest the "missionary" is not called; alternatively, he may not be called during this time frame, to do godly work in another country. 

Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia., after they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not (Acts 16:6) 

Paul was a travelling missionary preaching the gospel, and when he came to the region of Asia, the Holy Ghost forbade him and the men with him, entrance. They next arrived at Mysia, and attempted to undertake preaching in Bithynia, but once again, the Spirit "suffered them not", meaning, they were not permitted entry. God had other plans for these itinerants. 

If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world (James 1:26, 27)

As I recall, there were people held captive in cruel isolation, sick and dying alone in hospitals, and in nursing homes, during the cv craze that washed over a world  of people, that begged to be enchanted. There are fatherless children in every country, including the ones you and I reside in: widows are abundant and in need of tender loving care too, so why not be the love of God for locals? Why pray tell, would God have you, or I, or anyone else, injected, in order to serve? 

Look again at James:

Men among us seem religious

They do not bridle their own tongues

They deceive their own hearts

Their religion is vain

Pure religion before God AND the Father is

To visit the fatherless in affliction

To visit the widows in affliction

And finally, and most powerfully

To keep himself unspotted from the world

I suggest to you, that we humans get very attached to who we believe we are, and it is the lust of this type of self-important attachment to titles and or positions we hold, that stop up our ears, and prevent of us hearing and heeding the Holy Ghost when we are forbidden, or not suffered, to go and do what we want to do.

There isn't a Christian anywhere that was told by the Holy Ghost that it was acceptable for them to wear masks, socially distance, stay home from work, keep their children away from other people, sanitize their hands obsessively and incessantly, or get the noxious injections prepared by Satan's workers of iniquity to keep our employment or cross borders to do God's work. Any participation in the protocols is sin, and collectively, we have a lot of repenting to do, for not trusting in God's sovereign will, his exceedingly generous providential care, and his warnings that keep us not only from evil that harms the body, but preserves our conscience when we abide in him. 

A person's mission may be aboard, but we are useless and insipid, if we are not conforming to Christ where we are planted. Christians must remain unspotted in the world, and not act like heathens that hate the Lord, by following wayward men that care not for the will of God. 

Do not comply with the wishes of wicked men that hate you so much, they want your life extinguished.
