Who is more awesome than God? This is a question that is not at all difficult to answer, and the answer is no one. No one at all is even remotely close.

There is no entity, no person, quite literally nothing imaginable by anyone at any time in all of history, the present, or in all of the eternal future that can be compared even slightly in the realms of awesomeness to the Creator of Life.

There are those who like to believe that they are as awesome as God. Some, like the fallen angel Lucifer, as well as many of his devoted followers, would like to be thought of and worshiped as if they are even more awesome than God.

Then there are those who deny God’s existence altogether and claim that the Universe and the Earth exploded from nothing with a “big bang.”

Just exploded out of pure nothingness and for no particular reason, complete with all of the amazing complexities that make life possible.

Kind of like believing that a Rolex Watch could design, gather the needed jewels and tiny pieces, and then assemble itself. The problem with this is that the universe is much more complicated than a Rolex Watch and its two hundred or so teeny tiny parts.

To make a case for this analogy, consider this: Just one average-sized, fully-grown human body contains approximately 60,000 miles of arteries as part of the circulatory system that transports blood. Think about it: that’s enough arteries, if strung out in a line, to circle the entire earth twice with 10,000 miles left over. The arteries are just part of the highly complex systems of organs such as the heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, intestines, stomach, reproductive, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, limbs, many smaller organs, and, oh yes, the brain.

All of these organs working in synergy and relying heavily on oxygen and water to remain alive.

The human brain alone is infinitely more complex than a Rolex Watch.

In fairness, designing and creating the numerous tiny parts and assembling the Rolex does take a great deal of focus, patience, and intelligence. So, no slight meant to the watch or the watchmakers.

However, if the human body and the human brain are not enough evidence of the complexity of creation itself as compared to a Rolex, consider the elements that sustain life on Earth and the entire universe.

Earth, air, water, fire, oxygen, and gravity just for starters.

Basic elements that sustain the myriad forms of animal life, underwater creatures, countless bird species that fly through the air, and a vast world of insects of both the flying and crawling kind. Dozens of all types of minerals and metals and ores, liquids and gases, and zillions of microscopic atoms, neutrons, and electrons permeate everything.

Have you ever gazed in amazement at the night sky, from the rim of Haleakala Crater on Maui or from the middle of the desert, at the billions of twinkling stars?

Or, wondered about the whole enormous universe filled with countless planets and moons orbiting like clockwork around stars called suns, formed into galaxies and solar systems of various sizes, and kept by enormously powerful forces of electromagnetic and gravitational safe-locks from colliding like bumper cars at the county fair and careening into complete and utter chaos!

If all that isn’t enough to convince an atheist, how about DNA? Billions of individuals have walked the earth since the first humans, and every single one of them/us has a unique pattern of DNA.

In Psalm 139, the Creator of all life reveals to us that He knew each individual before we even entered our mother’s womb. He saw our unformed bodies. Then, He formed us in the womb. We were wonderfully made.

Each with a different face and unique DNA that makes us different from anyone else. Similar perhaps sometimes, but nonetheless, each of us is a complete original.

Believing that an intelligently designed, highly complex universe just accidentally exploded out of pure nothingness is fantastically delusional. Also, the deceived beings who believe this are usually the biggest mockers of the one true God.

Mocking God is a dumb thing to do. It is also impossible because God cannot be mocked.

Galatians 6:7 “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked.”

Just who is the one true God?

It is He who has revealed Himself through the Holy Bible. In that book is His history. “His story.”

Following are a few of the things God has done to reveal Himself to be the One and Only True God, who is also known as “The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,” and many other names as well, such as Yahweh, Jehovah, Adonai, El Shaddai, “I am That I am,” the Alpha and Omega, God Almighty, and Heavenly Father.

The first act of awesomeness He did to reveal Himself was to create the entire universe and all that is in it. That would include this earth and all who have ever dwelt upon it.

Any type of physical pain is usually enough to convince someone that they really do exist inside a body made of flesh and blood. If for no other reason than this, we can attest to and give witness to the fact that there really is a creation and a planet we call Earth, and we really do dwell here upon it.

I know for a certainty that I did not create the universe, or the earth, or myself.

It would be completely vain, arrogant, and idiotic to be in the business of comparing oneself to the actual Creator of Life and all of the complexities that make life even possible.

The second wonderfully awesome thing the Creator has done is this: He has held and continues to hold the entire universe together.

I, my precious wife of 57 years, and my fellow believers in Jesus love to give thanks to our awesome God for the many astonishingly wonderful things He has done and continues to do. We worship Him and praise Him for His awesomeness and His Holiness.

Here are a few more things that demonstrate the awesomeness of God. Things that have taken place in the last few thousand years. Things that are a part of history and/or His Story.

He created humans in His own likeness and gave them unrestricted free will. He gave them the intelligence to choose wisely, but only if they chose to choose wisely.

Adam and Eve had that ability and chose not to choose wisely, which set in motion a fallen state of being for humanity.

They fell for the lie from the fallen angel known as Lucifer that if they could acquire the knowledge of good and evil, then they could be like God.

Only God can be like God.

Only God is omniscient, omnipresent, and has supernatural powers capable of creating and sustaining universes.

Only God can declare the end from the beginning and make prophecies of near, mid, and distant future events that come true with precise accuracy 100% of the time.

Only God is Perfect and Holy, and only God has the ability to save us fallen humans and bestow eternal life and happiness upon whosoever, of their own free will, trusts in Him.

Only God can be like God.

From the beginning, God has done amazing, miraculous things that defy reality.

So many supernatural things as to fill up an entire book. A thick book just like the Holy Bible.

Just to cite a couple of them as an example, there are these:

In the days of the prophet Daniel, God stood with three Hebrew lads in a fiery furnace that was stoked to a temperature that should have instantly melted them all, and their clothes were not even singed.

Those three lads had been sentenced to death for refusing to worship a human king who liked to think he was a god. Instead, they chose to die rather than give up worshiping the one true God, who stood with them in the fiery furnace and saved them (Daniel 3:19-27).

God sent fire from Heaven, at the request of the prophet Elijah, down upon the soaking wet wood surrounding Elijah’s altar to God on Mt. Carmel, and the soaking wet wood instantly burst into flames.

This happened much to the dismay of the 450 false prophets of Baal, who all together were unable to coerce their false god into sending down fire (1 Kings 18:38).

God split the deep waters of the Red Sea into two walls of water that exposed the dry bottom of the sea and held the walls of water up so that the Israelites could pass through safely with all of their people, animals, and belongings to the other side, and to dry land. He then released the walls of water upon the Egyptian soldiers who were in pursuit of the Israelites (Exodus 14:21-26).

The Bible is filled with numerous other examples of the supernatural powers of Holy God, the Creator.

Why did He do such things?

He did such things to get the attention of the fallen and to increase the faith of the faithful.

Somehow, the fallen state of humanity and the rampant indulgence in sinful behavior turned many individuals into dullards and dimwits, unable to recognize the miraculous nature of their own existence.

And God had an amazing plan to rescue whoever would choose to be rescued.

He would send a most wonderful part of Himself to Earth to be born into a human body.

God is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Three distinct personalities, and yet, 100% One in nature.

How can this be?

There is only one way to have any understanding of this amazing truth.

The Holy Spirit reveals this understanding to whosoever truly believes in the Son, who was sent by the Father.

The Father sent His Son into the world to save all who would believe in Him and then bestowed the gift of the Holy Spirit unto each true believer. According to the Son, the Holy Spirit leads believers to the truth in all matters.

“But the helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you” (John 14:26).

And so, it is the Holy Spirit that gives the hearts and minds of believers the ability to intuitively comprehend and be comfortable with God being Three in One and yet One at the same time.

For unbelievers who are without the Holy Spirit, such a thing is not only incomprehensible but appears to them to be foolishness and utter nonsense (1 Corinthians 1:18).

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are always in agreement, always on the same page, so to speak, 100% unified all of the time.

There is no part of God that is not wonderful and no part of Him that is not Holy and Perfect.

So, then God sent a wonderful part of Himself into the world. God sent His beloved only begotten Son into the world.

The Holy Spirit, with the same miraculous divine power that the Son had used to speak Creation into existence, overshadowed the Hebrew virgin named Mary and miraculously caused her to become pregnant with the physical body that the Son would need to bring the Holy presence of God among men (Luke 1:35).

What an enormous sacrifice that must have been for the Son!

The Son, the second person of the Holy Trinity who had always existed unrestrained by a physical body made up of flesh and blood and bones. A body that was then subjected to the needs of the flesh and the temptations of the flesh (Hebrews 4:15).

And yet, because of who He really was and really is, Jesus was able to walk and live upon the earth for 33 and one-half years without ever committing even one sin (2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 2:22).

Although the actual ministry of Jesus on Earth lasted merely 3 and one-half years, He was able to demonstrate the mighty supernatural power of God through reality-defying miracles such as calming a raging storm with a mere word, feeding over 5,000 people with a few fish and a few loaves of bread, walking on water and turning water into wine, just to name a few. Jesus also brought the Holy Presence of God to Earth.

He showed great compassion as He miraculously healed all manner of sickness and disabilities.

Jesus even revealed the power God has over life and death by raising several people from the dead, including Lazarus (John 11:38-44).

And then, the Father raised His Son from the dead (Matthew 28).

And then, the Son went to prepare a place for all those who trust in Him, and He promised to return for us (John 14:3).

And the Father gave the gift of the Holy Spirit to be our constant companion as we await the return of the Father’s Only Begotten Son.

Only our Heavenly Father knows the day and the hour when His Son will fulfill that promise (Matthew 24:36).

He gave us signs to watch for so as to know when such a time was at hand.

Jesus also gave to us, by way of His beloved disciple John, the Book of Revelation.

In this book, Jesus tells us about the future plans of The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Plans to eliminate evil and plans for a wonderful Eternity (Revelation 21 and 22).

An Eternity as wonderful as God Himself, and everyone who believes the following scripture is invited.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved” (John 3:16-17).

Blessings to all in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,

Rick Segoine

Romans 10: 9-13 says, “If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture says, ‘Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame. For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call on Him. For ‘whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.'”

 

Matthew 7:16-21 “Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”

Once again, another celebrity has come out of the woodwork, radically announcing their newfound claim on Christianity. Unfortunately, from several of the widely known and previous public examples we’ve seen in recent years, the eventual fruit, fallout, and real outcome only proved that they were false converts! So, it’s no wonder that our common knee-jerk reaction upon seeing and hearing this often tends to be one filled with doubt and skepticism.

Case in point, the distrust and uncertainty in my article back in 2019 concerning another celebrity’s supposed conversion turned out to be accurate through the leading and prompting of God’s Holy Spirit:

Not Sold on Con-ye :: By Candy Austin – Rapture Ready

(One needs to understand that these people are often Satanists/Luciferians and are God haters who use every chance they get to mock our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, even to the point of using ‘Trojan Horse assimilation’ into the church!) #cantbeatemjoinem

Oftentimes, when we, as True Bible Believers, respond in such a way (with righteous judgment as we are instructed to do in the Bible), the world and even CINOs (Christians in Name Only) will quickly condemn and dismiss us by labeling us as self-righteous, judgmental, legalistic, and even unloving! As if to say, ‘How dare you try and stand on the Word of God when it comes to their truth!’

Of course, there are always those who will simply hide behind a computer screen with intentions of trolling on cases like these by leaving rude, crude, and insensitive remarks. This, therefore, is not what I am talking about. What I am concerned with is being ‘one of those above-labeled Christians’ who practice and exercise their gift of discernment by using none other than scripture to make some real and valid points!

Just in recent months, a ‘certain dark artist’ has come out onto the public scene, claiming a shift in her lifestyle and faith toward Christianity. All of which is great, by the way, only if it is to be truly genuine and not some sort of ‘hidden agenda’ – an agenda that is meant to only further the blurring of the lines between light and darkness. (This is what the alarm bells of discernment through scripture can clue us in on for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.)

For example, in a recent social media interview, this person stated that their conviction was to merely throw out their occult material (Red flag number 1). Subsequently, and out of her own mouth too, she detailed how that some ‘demonically inspired people’ ended up coming over to her house after she posted that information online. She also went on by recognizing even to herself how much they were feverishly desiring to possess that satanic material, even to the point of digging it out of her trash cans! (This was the first alarm bell ringing out that she should have instead burned/destroyed all of that evil stuff just like they did in the book of Acts!)

Acts 19:19-20 “Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.”

Another thing that this person said is that she has ‘no intention of changing how she looks.’ On the one hand, that may seem fine to some, but in this case, this person purposely and deliberately dresses up as a dark gothic vampire. A look that consists of heavy goth makeup (white and black on the face, complete with long black fingernails), not to mention an attire of nothing but black clothing, shoes, and accessories at all times!

One can say that pointing this out concerning outward appearance/looks is legalistic. Ok, well, let’s just imagine for a moment walking into a sanctuary full of people who look like characters from The Addams Family. Picture your pastor standing up in church while preaching at the pulpit, looking like an undead Zombie, then visualize all the ladies in the congregation looking like creepy Witches. Also, envision the men and even the deacons passing the plate around, looking like bloodthirsty Vampires. Lastly, think of all the children sitting there looking like ghastly ghouls and goblins!

On that note, would you feel like you were attending a Holy place of Worship and Service that was meant to reverence and honor the Lord Jesus Christ? Or would you feel like you were attending some sort of Halloween/Samhain bash or a type of demonic gathering such as a psychic/tarot card reading or a seance? (((Seriously!)))

Would seeing and being surrounded by people all dressed like that be even remotely spiritually encouraging, uplifting, inspiring, positively influential, or much less even acceptable in our true and worshipful act toward our Almighty God?

#abstainfromallappearanceofevil

1 Thessalonians 5:21-23 “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Red flag number 2. This person is also BFFs with a well-known Satanist who famously desecrates and rips up God’s Holy Words/Bibles on stage during his grossly demonic concerts! Not to mention, her latest music video’s chorus lyrics (out just a few weeks ago, mind you) goes like this:

Just take me away into your secret paradise
Come, just steal my fate; there’s only you and me tonight
I got so much rage that needs to come out from inside
Don’t care what’s wrong, what’s right

Give me some of that vampire love
Give me some of that vampire love, yeah
Give me some of that vampire love
Don’t care what’s wrong, what’s right

(Is this behavior congruent with someone who is truly born again in the Lord Jesus Christ?)

BIBLE VERSES ABOUT BAD COMPANY (kingjamesbibleonline.org)

An additional red flag is in this person also stating that they ‘don’t think skulls are evil but instead think that they are beautiful.’ Of course, an occultist/witch would glorify skulls because those who love death hate God; for skulls in general and especially in the occult world are commonly used to symbolize and represent death! That should be disturbing to a true believer if someone admires or has skulls in their life. Just take a nosedive and look this subject up, and you will only find that it leads to nothing but nefarious means!

Proverbs 8:36 “But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.”

Finally, this person ended her interview by saying that she ‘has no intention of talking about her faith on her social media accounts beyond this point.’ Apparently, she just wanted to come out of the woodwork to simply announce her baptism (FYI, baptism doesn’t save). Not only that, to also show the world that she can still be her same ol’ gothic looking/acting/singing/behaving self but somehow integrate and reconcile all of that into the church.

The message apparently seems to be, through several of her interviews by now, that her ‘blending of light and darkness’ should just be accepted by us as ‘normal’ and that we just need to keep our traps shut about it, or we’ll be dubbed intolerant or whatever other derogatory label that is often strewn our way.

Guess what the Bible has to say about ‘keeping your faith to yourself’… oh, wait, it doesn’t! Jesus Himself commands us (in the Great Commission) to go, teach, and baptize (aka share the Gospel Message) by telling the world about our faith in Him. Not just one or two times either… but all the time, every day… basically it is to become our daily lifestyle to do so!

#itsnotthegreatsuggestionitsthegreatcommission

Matthew 28:19-20 “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

Just like I said about the false celebrity convert in my article back in 2019, ‘Not Sold On It,’ this time I’m saying ‘Not Buying It.’ Either way, their content, behavior, music, and everything these people say and do are a truer statement and testament to who they really are! And until I see real, true, genuine, saving faith-belief and change in them, long term, by the way, and with respect toward Jesus Christ, I’m not going to fall for whatever they’re trying to peddle, swindle, sell, assimilate, acclimate, or do!

What does it mean to test everything (1 Thessalonians 5:21)? | GotQuestions.org

Excerpt:

Paul and John gave significant attention to guarding and protecting believers from false teaching, as they knew of the existence of influential counterfeits and false teachers. Paul warns Timothy to be on guard against falsehood (1 Timothy 6:20; 2 Timothy 4:15). John warns his readers to be on guard against idols (1 John 5:21). Peter adds that believers should be on guard so they are not carried away by error (2 Peter 3:17). Testing everything and holding fast to what is good (1 Thessalonians 5:21) remains an important discipline for every believer, in all eras. – End Source

This world is beyond utterly evil and full of lies, and there’s hardly anything one can believe anymore, and the last people I’m going to listen to are talking heads/puppets/influencers/bought-and paid-for celebrities of the NWO Beast System Agenda!

Sorry, not sorry.
