“Cult of Personality“-Living Colour 

Matthew Ch. 4

1. Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2. And after He had fasted forty days and forty nights, He then became hungry.  3. And the tempter came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” 4. But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.’ “  5. Then the devil took Him into the holy city and had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, 6. and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down ; for it is written, ‘HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS CONCERNING YOU’; and ‘ON their HANDS THEY WILL BEAR YOU UP, SO THAT YOU WILL NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE.’ “  7. Jesus said to him, “On the other hand, it is written, ‘YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST.’ “  8. Again, the devil took Him to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory  9. and he said to Him, “All these things I will give You, if You fall down and worship me.”  10. Then Jesus said to him, “Go, Satan! For it is written, ‘YOU SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD, AND SERVE HIM ONLY.’ “  11. Then the devil left Him; and behold, angels came and began to minister to Him.

“Sympathy for the Devil“-Rolling Stones (a remix of the original rock version)

So what is it you want from me sir? I have everything to offer you, dear friend. Abide within me and I shall grant you untold riches. You shall be granted fortune in all things. I will graciously grant you pleasure accessible only in following my teachings. Once you witness what I have to offer, your desire to follow me in every way shall grow. That does sound like a nice offer…but what exactly makes you think I will follow you? Simply gaze upon my persona. I am more famous than any being throughout human history. Everyone knows my name. Everyone? You mean the whole world? Why of course. I am recognized in such a vast aray of ways. I am what people live for. I am in every blessing I have bestowed upon the human race. Take into consideration, that I am the essence of sexual intercourse. What? How? Was it not for me, you would be bound to a single mate. I would not so cruely do such an act. You sholud be free to have sex with any and countless partners. Experiment. Be cheerful in what your body was made for. And if you must, force it upon your partner. For they truely inside wish to be taken advantage of. Rape!? I could never do such a thing! There is no logic in that! Just the thought of it…they don’t wanna, then they don’t wanna!  Bah! The only voice of reason there is is ME. My ways are logical. They are law. Take heed of the Ancient Greeks.  They saw it my way…they truely took pleasure in what I proposed. The Greeks loved to engage in sex. Rape was norm back then. As was prostitutes, for you see women are made to be simple commidies for men. I remember seeing the Greeks engaging in sex with any person. Not only men with other men, but with children as well. O how they favored the youth! I think I’m gonna hurl…that…is just so appalling! Dear-My principles may seem different, but you will soon see it my way, as I have been the subject of much contraversy, but humans do not fully comprehend my goal. Follow and you shall learn. Follow you!? A lune like you!?  I advise you not blashpeme. Do you not see? I am everything you dream of being. I am like Mussolini and Kennedy. I shall lead my people to what I see as the greater good for them. I shall commender power and authority that none shall will dare to challenge my power, all the while keeping the best interests of my followers in check. Like Joseph Stalin and Ghandi. Do you not see that I am the Cult of Personality? You can’t help but love me! My priniciples may seem presumptous, but they uphold the luxuries of your everyday life. Go ahead and spend and spend to your heart’s content. (guess he means credit cards) Take no anguish in how to obtain the needed money. Hoard it in any way possible. Swindle others for your own profit. Decieve the naive, for they are ever so foolhardy. Take joy in what I have provided for you. Continue to be consumed in such mirth, that you will want to do nothing else but worship my name! For I have provided it for just such cause. So the human race stands in awe in what I have sculpted. But do not be fooled by what the so called “Lord and Redeemer” has done for you. What do you mean? This man deserves all we have to offer. THERE IS NO OTHER BEFORE ME! FOR I AM THE TRUE LORD WHO DESERVES ALL YOUR PRAISE AND WORSHIP! What exactly did this Son of God do for you? He died on the cross for my sins, that’s what. I have been around for a long, long time. I very well remember that day. Was it not for me, Pilate would not have washed his hands that very much sealed the fate of the the Lamb. His death was all in vain. He himself doubted his efforts. Tell me, did not he very well utter the sacred words “Lord, why hath thou forsaken me?” Even he doubted His Master. His death was NOTHING. (I don’t care about what he says, I not listening to him) WHAT WAS THAT! IDIOTIC FOOL! DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT I KNOW YOUR EVERY DREAM, ANGER, AND THOUGHT! If I did not, how else would I enforce my laws to the masses! I very much know what you attempt to do against MY NAME. Spreading the “gospel” throughout the world. Your supposive God has done NOTHING  for your kind. You do not recieve what you want by asking him. You must do as I say and take it. Take benefit in the failures of the foolish. Do what you must to gain. I will not do what you say! You hold no power over me! Hahahaha! I do what I damn near please mortal! Was it not me who killed the the last Czar of Russia? Anastasia screams were all in vain. For Nicholas’ death ushered in the rise of Communism. Paving the path for the all so blissful purges of Stalin. So many dead! Twas’ I who guided the Nazi armies to overtake Europe! What a feat! Storming the god forsaken countries in  a myriad of Blitzkrieg strikes. Easily overtaking all who dared oppose. How many bodies were left rotting in the fields! The furnaces of Alemania were O’ so bountiful of the sweet scent of dead Jewish bodies! How I enjoyed hunting the Jews for sport! Setting them free across a field in a useless attempt to save their hides…much game was killed by my rifle. What glee I had while I watched you kings and queens fight for a 100 years for imaginary gods. What a show! Killing so many for such a pointless cause. Grade -A entertainment. I shouted out “Who killed the Kennedys?”, knowing very well it was you humans and I who did the deed. There was no way I was going to let the humans have a season of cheer under the name of someone other than ME. You may have had your way, but that was only because God, the Name on High, let it happen for his master plan to unfold. I did these things on my own terms, not His. He holds no power over ME! He is a pathetic, weak, damnable being who knows of nothing. He was threatened by my intentions to rise up over Him that He cast me out of Heaven! He cannot even protect his “children”. Thousands a day die at my hands. I limit them of manna, causing famine all over the world. I am at the source of every war that is, and was, and is to be raged. I easily take care of the sealed by leading them off their path. How easily fools are detoured from their committed path! My determination and perseverance draws all to me. I am the one who has stolen the souls of the otherwise misled. It was me who veered the “righteous” down the wrong path to ultimatly steal their faith. It wa-but didn’t you say your way was the right way? You just admitted that you way is clearly the wrong way! You can’t even keep your “facts” right! ….verily, verily I say unto you…YOU WRETCHED, DISGRACEFULL EXCUSES FOR SERVANTS!! THE HUMAN RACE IS NOTHING BUT A USELESS LOT!! YOUR RACE DESERVES ETERNITY IN THE FLAMES OF HELL!! DO YOU NOT SEE!?!? Every enforcer of the the law of god is considered a crime! Every sinner is a saint and shall be blessed on this world for as long as they live. And they best hope that they live a long prosperous life! For the moment the reaper takes their useless spirit from their body, then it is MINE FOREVERMORE. Mine to torture in the bowels of Hell, crying out for salvation from the fiery pit. What soothing sound is the moans and vain cries of the condenmed! For you humans are to blame for all the wrong on this world, and you shall duely recieve what is deserved. I have not need to worry for mine own life, for it is forever written in the Book of the Lamb! It cannot be blotted out, for the eternal spirit of Christ resides within me! This only motivates me to claim as many lives for Jesus as I can! SAY NOT THAT NAME!!!! He holds noth-was it not for Him I would most assuradly be left to follow you without even knowing it! Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for what He has done! SILENCE YOU DAMN FU-YOU HOLD NO POWER OVER ME LUCIFER! I REVEAL YOUR NAME FOR WHAT IT IS! YOU ARE THE DECIEVING SERPANT WHO CANNOT VANQUISH THE HOLIEST OF HOLIES! I SHALL WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF SHADOW OF DEATH, AND HAVE NO FEAR OF THE TEMPTER, FOR THE SHEPHARD SHALL LEAD ME TO HIS SAFE PLACE! HE SHALL LEAD ME TO SAFE WATERS AND PASTURE TO REST FROM THE INEQUITIES OF THIS WORLD! NO ONE IS ABOVE THE MOST HIGH FOR HE IS THE MASTER! THE BRIGHT MORNING STAR! THE THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE!….huff..huff..huff..(where did that come from? how did my voice manage that?) huh? He’s gone….. 

In the very face of Satan, Jesus denied temptation and stayed true to the Father. We neglect to follow His example, because we falter O’ so many times along the path. We as people take pure joy and pleasure in sin. By this, we are turning our backs on God. To turn your back on God is to live for sin. To live for sin is to live for Satan. Plain and simple. There are many who know this, yet refuse to change their ways. But a true believer in Christ Jesus repents and confesses their sins to the Redeemer. We all falter, it is inevitalbe. Those who have accepted Christ as their Saviour, who died on the cross for everyone’s sins, have accepted the gift of eternal salvation. Was it not for the Messiah, we would all be left for the Lake of Fire. But God so loved the world, that He gave is only begotten son so that we may all have the gift of eternal life in Heaven if we declare Jesus as Lord and believe it in our hearts to be true.

For those who had enough reason to read this whole message, please do not hesitate. It is not yet too late to repent of you sins. Accept Christ into your heart and truely believe that He died on the cross for the sins of you and I. There is no sin too great to be forgiven, for all our sins have been forgiven though the blood of the Lamb. God gave his only Son to be killed on the cross, so that we may have a personal relationship with Him on this Earth and in Heaven. Repent of the sins you have committed. Acknowledge the fact that you are a sinner and need the forgiveness of Christ. Do not believe that it is only for the weak or feeble, for we have all come short of the Glory of God. It does not matters not how you lived your life on Earth. But it does matter if you brought Christ into your heart so that you may recieve the most precious, priceless gift of eternal salvation. If you pray this, then the Holy Spirit of Christ of shall dwell within you forever. No mater what you do, you still have the gift of salvation. It truely wouldn’t be a gift if He took it back now would it? When you recieve a gift, it cannot taken away from you. Verily I say that if you have trusted your life to Christ, the Lord and Saviour, then follow Him in all that you do. Study the Holy Bible so that you may know the miraculous things he has promised us and desires from us. There is no greater gift than the gift of eternal salvation. To know that you will one day, in due time, go up into Heaven and meet face to face the person who made it all possible for you to get there. Jesus the Christ.
