CAMOUFLAGE: BEWARE OF THE TROJAN HORSES
By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (YouTube: Wade Hughes) 2 TO 3 PART LESSON.
THE YELLOW LIGHT ON VAN… came on last week, not 42 psi, but 31 on the right front tire. We added air. A few days later, the yellow light came on again, this time 30 psi. We added air. Today the yellow light was on again, 31 psi. I went to where I bought the tires. I explained the one tire was down to 30 again. They offered to put more air in the tire. I explained the same tire kept going down, would they please check the tire not just add air. They pulled the van in and found a very small nail in the tire. They fixed the tire. Sometimes we need to find the problem more than just keep adding air?
RED FLAGS: When a ship is flying a red flag it is a signal that the ship is in danger of sinking, a warning, a warning of danger. Angry outburst can be a red flag can reveal something about a person’s temperament.
RED FLAGS COULD INDICATE UNHEALTHY, MANIPULATIVE BEHAVIOR.
DO WE UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE IN WHITE WASH AND WASHING WHIT?
Matthew 23:25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. 26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. 27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Matthew 23:26 (MSG) Stupid Pharisee! Scour the insides, and then the gleaming surface will mean something. 27 "You're hopeless, you religion scholars and Pharisees! Frauds! You're like manicured grave plots, grass clipped and the flowers bright, but six feet down it's all rotting bones and worm-eaten flesh. 28 People look at you and think you're saints, but beneath the skin you're total frauds.
WHITEWASH: Chalky, glossing over, to paint over, to cover-up, which is normally a quick fix that is temporary in nature. MIXTURE OF LIME AND WATER… TO DELIBERATELY CONCEAL
WASH WHITE: more permanent, to get to the root of the problem, bleach,
OFTEN WE AVOID GOD BECAUSE WE SAY WE WILL WORK OUT OUR PROBLEMS AND THEN COME TO GOD. That is not how God’s plan works. WE MUST COME TO GOD THE WAY WE ARE AND HE WILL HELP US HELP US WORK OUT THE PROBLEMS.
FOR 10 YEARS THE GREEKS TRIED TO DEFEAT TO CAPTURE THE CITY OF TROY.
There is a story from Greek mythology about a city that could not be defeated. Troy was a strong city with a large wall that had a mighty defense. KING AGAMEMNON led the Greek attack against TROY. This siege lasted 10 years with no avail. The Greeks developed a plan. The Greeks could never get inside TROY to defeat them. They built a HUGE WOODEN HORSE. They approach the city with a PEACE OFFERING TO THE GOD OF TROY. They withdrew their ships, (out of sight). The army went over the mountain out of sight. How could they get TROY TO OPEN THE GATES? Someone of the Greeks had an idea. They built this huge wooden horse as the offering. In the night the Greeks move the wooden horse on wheels and left it just outside the gate the gate and they left. SO TROY SAW THE HORSE AND NO ENEMY. THEY BROUGHT THE HUGE HORSE INSIDE THE GATE. The people celebrated and big party all day with the WOODEN HORSE
That the enemy had withdrawn. During the night 40 of the most skilled crawled out of the hollow belly and they were within the city. While the enemy sept through the night, the Greeks warrior fought with little resistance and the Greek armies and ships returned and utterly destroyed the city.
