Reader, Are you usually the person that is right as in not being wrong and not right verses left (Even though, normally they are the same)?  Are you usually the smarter person in the room or the sharper knife in the drawer? Are you more of the fearless and bold type? If we were in a room with many others and I asked these questions, most would not raise their hands for being in fear of reprisal and being thought arrogant. But Reader, it is just you and me here. Do any of the traits above follow you?

Reader,  to deny the above, if they be true, is not modesty, or humility. It is the denial of logic and an affront to God. If you can say yes to the above questions and acknowledge God in the same breathe, you are not arrogant but accurate and you are giving God all glory for it. Let me demonstrate or let me go first (1st). I am normally on the right side of things and am normally correct, I think I am usually the smarter person in the room if the room is filled with non-Christ-ians and group thinkers, I tend to be somewhat bold in my new creatureliness. I do not fear reprisal or being judged as anything. How about you? It’s your turn………………………………….  ……………………………………….. ……………………………So, are we on the same page?

We were in a church service once  and the preacher asked the question, “Are you as holy and righteous as the Lord Jesus?”  Only one (1) hand went up. How in the world can one, who like you, are capable of sinning sins, making stupid mistakes or rather make mistakes that demonstrate my stupidity, and am perpetually undone in God’s perpetual Presence? How could one claim to be equal to Christ in holiness and righteousness, Who knew no sin, is Wisdom incarnate and thought it not robbery to consider Himself equal in the Godhead? How could one think this, much less say it or write it for all to read and hear? Would this person be arrogance uncharted?

No, not at all.  How can I think those things and not be arrogant or crazy?  Because “the Bible told me so.”  Reader,  If judged in my own person, If I be judged in Adam or if I be judged in Brian or Keith or according to my works, I am infinitely guilty of sin, fallen, stupid, weak, base, and without hope. I am unholy, unrighteous, and rotting from the inside out. I am God’s enemy, I am the subject and object of God’s perpetual hatred, anger, fury, and wrath. “I am no man but a worm” and I would eternally exist in the place where the worm dieth not.

BUT…HOWEVER…INSTEAD, Oh! my beloved Reader, Praise God!!! I am, I am, I am made the righteousness of GOD HIMSELF in the Person of my Lord Jesus!!!  How? My Lord and Saviour was made SIN itself so that I might be made righteousness itself. Because of my Heavenly Father, because of the Holy Spirit, and because of my Lord Jesus and Their/His actions and  Their/His say so. The Godhead looks at me and at us through Christ colored glasses. Praise the Great High God to the Highest and in the highest, O’ you, His people and His very, very, very elect child.

We can say and write the above positives of our person AND YOUR PERSON because we are IN Christ Jesus, if you be in Christ Jesus.

So how can we (usually) be unadulterated and unapologetically right, smarter and sharper than others? To be like the above, one should have a mental check list to varify one’s positions? We can teach you how to be the above as long as you know that the above positive traits will mark you as an enemy to many persons, people and peoples. You will be thought of, even if it goes unsaid, as a racist, as bigotted, of being gender biased, intolerant, close-minded, stupid, expendable, and as a target.

The check list should be made from Common sense and independent thinking, history, science, logic, and theology. Let me put, for an example, my position on trial concerning the homosexual agenda.
Q. Does homosexuality violate common sense?
A. Yes
Q. Does history look at homosexuality as a viable alternative to hetero-sexuality?
A. No
Q. Does Science approve of homosexuality as being viable?
A. No
Q. Does Logic look upon homosexuality as valid?
A. No
Q. Does Theology allow for homosexuality?
A. No.

Is my position the right position? The answers above dictate to me what my position should be and must be. Homosexuality violates common sense because of the questions and answers that followed. *History/statistics shows homosexuality as being a dangerous life style. The rate of assaults and murders in the gay community are higher than hetero, porportionally or percentage wise. *Science concludes that the gay life style is not healthy as those in the gay community are inclined to fornicating with multiple partners and with that, they spread maladies.
Also, science says sex is for procreation and since homosexuals cannot (yet) procreate, Science opposes homosexuality. *Logic demonstrates it’s opposition to the gay life style as it agrees with the above positions on the check list. As to *Theology, there is no question to it’s condemnation of the gay life style, though not the gay person, as many with same sex attraction do not partake in the gay lifestyle or group think with the gay agenda.

In conclusion to my argument, Common sense dictates and validates my position on Homosexuality and it’s agenda.  Therefore, I can be confident in that I am correct in my position. That is how one can be correct, smart, and sharp.

Why did I pick homosexuality as my example?  I chose homosexuality as my example because it is the proverbial squeeky wheel in our culture today.

One (1) of the titles above is “Weaponizing Common Sense.” Now that I think about it, I should have called it, “Weaponizing UNcommon Sense.”

 

Godspeed.
