Sexploitation

Under the coverture of a sadistic culture, we have not tapped into the real issue concerning sex. When music, arts, and books are populated with this atmospheric fetish, the common man knows very little of it. The sensual feel of a cloth does not mean it fits the body, the tastes of a certain food does not mean that the food is nutritious. While our appetite is preoccupied by our senses, the misconception of sex that has left many confused and void is sexploitation. We are saturated with it and the lack of it is deemed unacceptable. (A culture where the virgin is made a mockery and the harlot is exalted.) The pollution is far gone from the marriage bed to the streets, schools, media and even churches. The place of sex talk is now anyplace but the marriage bed. Some skeptics may question, the reason God created sex in the first place, if not for pleasure and procreation? Or is God the enemy of pleasure that He would stop his creatures from enjoying themselves?
Certainly not. I don't think God is against either. Although those are some essential reasons but the main part He created it is perhaps for something much profound than procreation and pleasures. In contrast, the amalgamation of two couples resonates naturally stronger in the Holy Matrimony. An attempt of unity, that constantly reminds couples that they are one: oneness not only in the body, but soul and spirit.

Hope is no hope

When you ask questions concerning history, like the rise and fall of a civilization. You will find out that most of the time it has something to do with someone's attempt to gain some advantage or recognition. To take what they believe was right and just in their own eyes. You will find that beneath the veneer of liberalism lies greed and deception. For instance, the Nazi's taught they were doing the world justice through liberation. That is why the harangue of Adolf Hitler was effectual since he too has known its tool. It gave him a lot of playing ground. It gave hope to the Germans and doomed the Jews. The canvas became a playing ground for the privilege and the non privilege. What hope does to the masses! Today we are given hope for the future. A hope that we can become a better nation altogether. But we have not asked who it will benefit the most and who will suffer for it. We have not questioned history.

The Enemy's Weapon

The sharp tongue, the sharp sword, the devices and deception, words of the enemy, ideals.
 Like a sharp sword it cuts, it has been sharpened and purified,
Awaiting for its prey, a deadly device filled with hatred, vengeful and destructive, it finds it's prey, lonely and helpless, it strikes.
Wounds the dove and ruffles the feathers, speaks to the child and rips open the heart, deceives the neighbor and shuns friendship.
The tears are flowing, the heart becomes bitter, the blood spills, love is betrayed.
But in Christ and only in Him, the weapon is paralyzed.
The sword becomes dull, the wound is healed, the heart is mended, the deceiver is silenced and love is restored. SAI
 Romans 12:20, 2 Corinthians 10:4.

The Unveiling

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow use to say that "every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not" and to put up a caveat in order to bring such practice to an efflorescent, there must be an unveiling of layers that needs to take place. The walls that man has built up for himself is more than a cover up but entirely fictitious .The main objective is not to find reason but to completely rediscover man's true identity altogether. To seek out something more on the inside.The inside man that plays hide and seek with himself. The soul of a man. No longer are we to talk about clarity but exploration. The real truth- the truths that keep man far away from his own identity and wishes he could erase it if he can.  But the sad part is that although truth can be altered, it can never be erased. We can only accept the truth or reject it. The moment we accept it, the less pile of layers to unveil: the rediscovering session begins. The truth he chooses to reject seals up his identity that further isolates him from reality .As Shakespeare puts it "to thine own self be true". SAI
