gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things!
The Synchromesh Transmission
We take for granted that all things mesh and work fluidly together…they don’t. With the grace of God absent, to borrow a line from the song “Midnight Blue” by Melissa Manchester, “even the simple things become rough.” The solution is simple, we must return to God. It’s an option that is still possible, but looking less probable every day. This episode shares a message of hope as to how we can get back to where we once belonged, and see our nation and our word flourish as God in Heaven intended!

08:31The timeless poetry of the Psalms celebrates God as CREATOR! Let your encounters with CREATION become moments of WORSHIP, where your awe becomes a hymn of GRATITUDE to the CREATOR GOD. As we slow down and pay attention to the world around us, we can in a very real way enjoy nature as our chapel, as we seek our creator God as our refuge, sanctuary, and strength! Nature is the chapel, GOD is the REFUGE & SANCTUARY!DONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account. For donation by check, make payable to Transform This City, P.O.

09:57John Bunyan, a Puritan minister and author published "The Pilgrim's Progress" in 1678. It is the 2nd most published book in the world, second only to The Bible, and the most popular novel ever written. In part two of this story, "Christiana's Journey" was published in 1683. In the second part, Bunyan makes some profound statements about WOMAN through the character Gaius. Keep in mind, this insight came 340 years ago. Listen to the developed insight regarding the unique and exalted role women played in the life of Jesus Christ!(Ctrl+click to follow the link) LIFE HELPSDONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account.

12:14Man is created and placed by God into the idyllic home in the Garden of Eden. He was in perfect communion with both God and the natural world. The story takes a dramatic turn of disaster with the introduction of temptation and willful disobedience against the clear command of God that we call THE FALL. Eve was deceived into sinning, but Adam, who was standing next to her as she sinned, took the fruit from Eve and went head long into direct rebellion against God's command. That is why sin came into the world through Adam and not Eve. The consequences of his rebellion was catastrophic for all humans who are born since his first sin. Against this backdrop of disaster, God shows His powerful love by weaving the story of redemption, salvation, restoration, and re-creation, which comes to ultimate fulfillment at the end of the age. This is an important truth that ALL PEOPLE need to know. One night I sat in my backyard with a friend I had led to salvation in Christ. I was shocked to find out he did not believe the Bible account of creation and the fall found in the book of Genesis. I told him that the Bible story is true, how can he deny it? He responded, "No one was there when it happened, how can we know this?" I told him we have the story handed to us by Moses. He said Moses wasn't alive then. I said that the whole thing rides on the truth that there IS A GOD. If God is the creator of the world, and spoke the world into existence, then surely HE has the ability to reveal the historic account to one of HIS creation! "Other Things with...

22:41The West Coast of the United States of America is spiritually hemorrhaging, and if a tourniquet is not applied soon, the judgement of Almighty God is going to fall in some catastrophic way on that region first. California, the leader of the pack dragging the rest of the nation over the edge of the abyss, is passing revolutionary bills at breakneck speed. This hemorrhaging brought about by the catastrophic wounds happening to our culture is unsustainable... If America does not repent and back away from the precipice on which we are dancing dangerously close, God is going to let us fall off into the abyss.

07:45The Bible states that we are seperate and distinct from the animal kingdom, that we as human beings are made in the image of God. Evolution is not only an attack on us a humans, but on the truth and validity of the Bible and the Creator God who made us in His image.

12:49The Book of Genesis, which translates to "beginnings" or "origins," introduces us to the grand narrative of creation. It serves as both an introduction to the entire biblical narrative and a profound exploration of humanity's relationship with the divine. It provides a foundation for understanding God's role as the creator and sustainer of the world. The belief that God created the heavens and the earth is the first non-negotiable doctrine in Biblical Christianity. The touch of divine craftmenship visible at every level of creation, from the micro to the macro emphasizes the inherent value and purpose of creation. The universe is not a random accident; it is intentionally brought into being by a loving and purposeful God who is the creator."Other Things with...

Tryin’ To Swallow Something That Won’t Go Down.
12:38Fiction writer Jan Karon's central character Father Tim replied, " 'Isn't that the way with all of us?...he said everybody's tryin' to swallow somethin' that won't go down.' He’d seen it in his years of counseling parishioners; he'd seen it in himself, again and again, and this morning in Anna. The gnawing worm was ever-present in a broken world." Satan is using the very real collapse of our culture, our country, and our world, to assault people and take them down the rabbit hole of addiction, mind control, and a permanent sense of an abandoned soul.

27:02Dissonance- in music it means a lack of harmony among musical notes. Its origin means from the Latin means ‘disagreeing in sound’. "Cognitive dissonance is a mental conflict that occurs when your beliefs don’t line up with your actions, a discrepancy between what your internal values are and what you feel in the moment. The Bible calls it being a hypocrite; being a two faced person - a person who claims or pretends to have certain beliefs about what is right but who behaves in a way that disagrees with those beliefs. We will not live in cognitive dissonance. Humans nor God like the condition, and either He or We will do something to alleviate the situation. It is always best if we respond to God in His loving call to change and restoration. Read Romans chapter 1 for the text.https://www.psycom.net/cognitive-dissonanceNCBI articleThe Biblical Model for Repentance"Other Things with...
