"It is not His Fault and He does Exist," (We need to Step-up).

2 Corinthians 5:17-21 says,

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."

And 2 Corinthians 6:1 says,

"We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain."

You know I read these Scriptures and they made me think about the condition of the world and my/our part in it.
I've been to blame for seeing all of the tragedies that are going on and the sin that is rife in the hearts of the people of the U.S, (all the killing each other and raping women and stealing from each other and not helping each other), and how greedy and corrupt that this present administration is and how it is leading this country head-long into destruction and looking-up and blaming God and becoming angry at Him and myself.
And you know I came to the realization that it is not His fault and it does not mean that He doesn't exist but that I have a role to play.

The Apostle Paul said first that I have to be in Christ then I become a new creature, (an effective one at changing the world to the way that it should be), and then I become a part of God, (No longer feeling alienated from Him or as though He doesn't exist but now one with Him, only through Christ Jesus), and that I am then given an anointing/a Ministry that begins to reconcile the world to God through OUR lives.
It begins to take the people that we come in contact with out of their SINS. Out of lust and hatred and perversion and wanting to rape and murder and selfishness and greed and self-righteousness.
And he says that as long as I am still in that old nature all of my attempts are futile.
The old man was the first Adam is no longer meant to be lived in but the new man is Christ Jesus that God has ordained before the world began for us to grow into and he is a life-giving spirit.

So we are to be workers together with God, (not apart from or angry at), and without Him we cannot do the work. And we can only approach God and put Him on through Jesus Christ.
And if we don't then the world is only going to burn down around us and we're going to get angry and blame God and shake our puny fists and end-up not believing in Him. Which I think is a cop-out anyways for people wanting to only be angry and not do anything and have a reason to not believe in Him and change their lives into the way that He has planned.

2 Corinthians 6:2 says,

"(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)"
