Bizzaro World 2 !!!!!!!!!!??? 7/13/22



Luke 21:25 (KJV)
25  And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

WOW!! before I go any further, I have to call to OUR attention a little known FACT-seldom, if ever preached.....................

One of the signs of the soon coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ is the presence of perplexity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PERPLEXED-from a compound of <G1> (a) (as a negative particle) and the base of <G4198> (poreuomai); to have no way out, i.e. be at a loss (mentally) :- (stand in) doubt, be perplexed
Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.

My attention was drawn to this one Word today as I read a Biblical news article describing some “bullet points” of this long prophesied miracle-the BLESSED HOPE that we Christians cling to daily-

THE SECOND COMING OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!!

My beloved friends and loved ones-that one Word-PERPLEXED-more than suffices where I live today-I AM SORELY PERPLEXED!!!!!!!!!!!

ARE YOU ALSO???????????????

I AM SORELY PERPLEXED!!!!!!!!!!!

WE are TRULY living in BIZARRO WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!

Urban Dictionary: bizarro world bizarro world A world where everything is the exact opposite. Up is down, first is last, good is bad, wrong is right, white is black, logical is illogical, giving is taking, insanity is sane, liberty is tyranny, and vice versa. It's a place where literally, the sky is forest green and the trees are sky blue.

PERPLEXED-from a compound of <G1> (a) (as a negative particle) and the base of <G4198> (poreuomai); to have no way out, i.e. be at a loss (mentally) :- (stand in) doubt, be perplexed

Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.

Are there areas in YOUR life that YOU are perplexed????

Are there things in YOUR life that YOU “see no way out?”

Are there situations in YOUR life that YOU are “at a loss”?????

The Apostle Paul wrote of this:

2 Corinthians 4:8 (KJV)
8  We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

There's that Word again-PERPLEXED!!!

It is Wednesday afternoon, 7/13/22. I began writing this sermon late yesterday afternoon and only now am I able to finish.

BIZZARO WORLD 2! I enclose at the end of this writing BIZZARO WORLD 1 dated 3/30/22.

I quote now from the article I read yesterday:

“And human beings cannot solve these problems. That is why the word "perplexity" is seen in Luke 21:25.”

Beloved, there ARE areas and circumstances in all our lives that WE “human beings cannot solve!”

My son in prison in addressing this truth referred to a dear mutual friend of both of us who has diabetes type 1.

Joshua said, “Dad, you know so and so. She has diabetes 1. She has ALWAYS, since birth had this terrible malady and always will, barring a direct MIRACLE of God

She, as well as my life without parole sentencing, will not and cannot change in human strength.”

I often think of a hero of mine, JONI EARECKSON TADA.

I heard of her and read much about her over 50 years ago. I was a young, strong man newly converted/completed in Christ, having not yet been stung by life's woes.

She has been paralyzed from the neck down ever since 1967 and somehow managed to keep her FAITH, TRUST, AND HOPE IN GOD intact-IN SPITE of her terrible affliction.


Recently, I was further encouraged and BLESSED by the story of Paul Alexander who was placed in an iron lung in 1953!! The article was written in 2020 and he was still living and has an AMAZING story:


TODAY, I am STILL perplexed, but NOT in despair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 Corinthians 4:8 (KJV)
8  We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

And brethren, TRUST ME, it CAN get worse.

“TRUST AND OBEY FOR THERE'S NO OTHER WAY

TO BE HAPPY IN JESUS BUT TO TRUST AND OBEY!!!”

Bizarro World!!?? 3/30/22



Philippians 2:15 (KJV)
15  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

Matthew 5:16 (KJV)
16  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 5:14 (KJV)
14  Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

In a conversation/HAPPY BDAY to a beloved friend today, I informed her that I “MAY” publish my sermon today. MAY being the KEY word.

In my OLD age or better yet, my LAZYINESS, I only publish sermons when and IF I feel/believe God has spoken to me.

As such, I left my house for the afternoon well knowing that I have no help for Amanda tomorrow and that if I wanted to spend time away from the stress of home I had better take advantage of TODAY!!!

I had commented on another friend's post depicting a large outdoor light fixture with the lyrics of an OLD country/Gospel song:

“THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE I'M GONNA' LET IT SHINE.....................”

As I parked my car and let my Bible fly open randomly the first thing my eyes caught was:

Philippians 2:15 (KJV)
15  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

Do you think/believe God was speaking to me and YOU through these coincidences????

Please read again carefully/PRAYERFULLY:

Philippians 2:15 (KJV)
15  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

If ever in my lifetime WE are living “in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation!!!”

Isaiah 5:20 (KJV)
20  Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Can you say BIZARRO WORLD????

A world where everything is the exact opposite. Up is down, first is last, good is bad, wrong is right, white is black, logical is illogical, giving is taking, insanity is sane, liberty is tyranny, and vice versa. It's a place where literally, the sky is forest green and the trees are sky blue.
Here at bizarro world, when greeting others we say "goodbye", and when leaving we say "hello".

It is to THESE rimes Jesus was referring!! The darker THIS world gets, the more OUR light should “shine all over creation, Lord, I'm gonna' let it shine!!”

AMEN!!!!!????

Jesus commanded you and me:

Mark 16:15 (KJV)
15  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Matthew 10:7-8 (KJV)
7  And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

8  Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

TODAY, “as ye go, PREACH, saying the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

AND, if all else fails, use WORDS!!!

A LIGHT needs no words as it is obvious it is a LIGHT by the illumination it emits!

That above line is from above:

A LIGHT needs no words as it is obvious it is a LIGHT by the illumination it emits!

Can others see your light without you having to inform them that you ARE a LIGHT for Jesus?????

“THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE-I'M GONNA' LET IT SHINE

LET IT SHINE LET IT SHINE LET IT SHINE.

Can you hear it whispering in your heart and soul today????

God Bless You,

Pastor Doug
