Leftism - Does God speak regarding leftism?
The Most Dynamic modern Religion is Leftism. Leftism is opposed to all traditional religious dogmas. It is a product of man's wisdom and doctrines. Most would not think of it as a religion; however according to Webster a religion can be defined as an interest, a belief, or an activity that is very important to a person or group. Learn more about leftism.
Leftism defined
Many churches have aligned under leftism and would classify themselves as liberal, some even advertise the fact.
Matthew 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Leftism certainly presents a great deal of evidence that we have arrived in the time period Timothy warned us about.
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

Ecclesiastes 10 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
Ecclesiastes 10 Dead flies cause the ointment of the perfumer to putrefy [and] send forth a vile odor; so does a little folly [in him who is valued for wisdom] outweigh wisdom and honor.
2 A wise man’s heart turns him toward his right hand, but a fool’s heart toward his left.
3 Even when he who is a fool walks along the road, his heart and understanding fail him, and he says of everyone and to everyone that he is a fool.
Ecclesiastes 10:12 The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious and win him favor, but the lips of a fool consume him.
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness, and the end of his talk is wicked madness.
What comes next according to God?
1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
God offers those who are called by His name the following advice.
Be Separate
Leviticus 20:26 And you shall be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be Mine.
2 Corinthians 6:17 Therefore “Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.”
In Common
Proverbs 22:2 The rich and the poor have this in common, The Lord is the maker of them all.
Hebrews 10:29 Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?
Light and darkness
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the Lord, do all these things.’
John 1:5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
World
Matthew 25:34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
John 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
John 17:9 “I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours.
Believers Grafted in
Romans 11:17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,
Romans 11:19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.”
Romans 11:23 And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
Romans 11:24 For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
In closing
1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”
James 4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

He Knows!
God knows things and details about your day that you probably would never recall if you sat down and reviewed your day before going to bed.
He is never too busy to spend His day with you but He never forces His companionship on you and your activities; He waits for your invitation!
This is a praise report and highlight of my day.
I always invite Him because I love His company and He keeps His eye on everything that is going on and pays great attention to the details. This week I have been cleaning up some wind damaged trees and during the process I lost a couple items off my chainsaw. Let me show you.

I always invite Him because I love His company and He keeps His eye on everything that is going on and pays great attention to the details. This week I have been cleaning up some wind damaged trees and during the process I lost a couple items off my chainsaw. Let me show you.
Downed trees
While sawing these trees up about four days ago I lost a bar nut somewhere along this hundred foot work area. The picture below displays a dime and nickle for a size comparison. The nut on the right came off the chainsaw while cutting and wasn't known to be missing until the chain came off the bar during a cut.
Two days ago I lost the bolt pictured above left working in the following area and like the nut I didn't notice it was missing until I had cut up these two trees.
Finding these missing items in the grass and wood chips is about as likely as finding the needle in a hay stack. The day they were lost I looked for them in these two areas with no luck.
Today while doing some additional cleanup I asked the Lord to show me where these two items were and to let me see them. He took me right to the spots as I entered both areas, I picked them up and they are now back on my chainsaw.
Without His company and His attention to detail these items would have never been found by me.
Luke 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
Why are such little things important? When you have invited God to spend the day with you and you ask Him for His help and He immediately responds it is faith building for us. You know He is actively engaged with you and your activity at a conversational level! Thank you Lord!
Praise Him! He is worthy of our praise!
Amen
