Some of us need to start celebrating God’s holy standards. If Jesus said “Be perfect” and the Greek word for “perfect” means “to be morally pure and spiritually mature” we should embrace this lofty standard which Christ Himself has set forth. Yet some today are subtly denigrating certain timeless notions and principles of holiness which God has set forth in his word. This is His eternal standard and not man’s. The fact is, desiring to live in heavenly perfection (not that even redeemed humanity won’t make mistakes) is a certain standard for our worship lives. [Rom. 12:1-2] Joseph, Daniel, Paul, and others all strove for excellence in their worship life, and so should we. And although we will make mistakes from time to time, the Bible is clear that God’s grace and the blood of Jesus is more powerful than sin and temptation ever could be, and that there is no necessity for any born-again Christian to remain in sin. When Jesus said “Be perfect” He didn’t mean that His followers simply were to become “mature” – especially in the sense that that word is used in today’s common language. All too many would-be worshippers fail at achieving a deeper place in the Lord simply because they have set the moral standard for the life too low. Many Christian leaders today arrogantly defy them. They have such low expectation of what a person can be in Christ. Their own sin and unbelief, lack of love, and lack of power – their own bias and conformity to narrow-mindedness blinds them to what they could truly become in Christ. But the pure worshipper will lovingly defy anything that would hold them back from being all that God has called them to do. Those who are godly in Christ Jesus will set aside all prejudices and preconceived notions of what a Christian should be. Pure worshippers will seek holiness and purity with reckless abandon. They will totally surrender themselves on a daily basis to the love of Jesus and the presence of God. They hunger and thirst for God’s presence. They don’t think this is radical at all, but rather part of the “normal” Christian life. They can easily love their enemies and forgive all. They find no problem in obeying all the scriptures. As a matter of fact, it is a great joy for them to keep the commandments of the Lord and to not offend the Holy Spirit in any way. GAW Book 3: Pure Worship – 2/3/06 (printed 2/6/06) 5 My friend, Jesus wants you and I to become pure worshippers. He wants you to proclaim right now that this can be done. God wants you and I to exceed all the expectations that others may have or that we may even have of ourselves. He wants you and I to become a pacesetter and to live bold and to stand out for Jesus. The pure worshipper loves the perfect standard. But there is another thing that motivates a pure worshipper. Passion. The sacred romance . Pure worshippers are spiritual romantics at heart. They have learned the sacred art of passionately and unashamedly worshipping God. You see, there’s going to be a wedding in Heaven! The Bridegroom is coming! Pure worshippers will have plenty of oil left over in their lamps. The Lord’s heart is for His Bride to ready our hearts in passionate love and adoration of Him. May the Holy Spirit fill us as He beckons us to enter the Holiest place in worship for this is the only sure place of spiritual safety. [Matthew 25:1ff] His presence is a strong tower and a place of refuge in these trying times. We are living in the days that Jesus foretold men’s hearts would wax cold and would fail them for fear of things which are about to come on the earth. A place of victory . Yet, as the Holy Spirit gently beckons us, His Bride, to draw close to Him, it is in this secret place of intimacy that we will find true spiritual immunity . It is in the secret place of intimate worship that we will find renewed strength, prosperity, provision, rest, peace, endurance, courage, healing, salvation, and deliverance. It is in this private place of prayer and worship that we will become more than a conqueror through Him who loves us. It is also from this secret place of power where God will empower His army with a Heavenly commission to win all the nations to Christ! God is longing to fulfill His destiny in you. And becoming a pure worshipper will help you fulfill God’s purposes and plans in your life. Ardent love . God wants to bestow His great love upon each of us. He also wants us to love His precepts. He wants us to be holy and to celebrate holiness. He wants us to truly admire and cherish all the laws of His love. There is abundant life in simply obeying His precepts . Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereto according to thy word. With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth. I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, GAW Book 3: Pure Worship – 2/3/06 (printed 2/6/06) 6 as much as in all riches. I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways. I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word. Psalms 119:13-16 He wants to trust us and longs to impart much revelation in our lives. He wants us to walk in communion with Him and unveil to us the countless mysteries as He did with Adam and Eve at the dawn of creation. We are to be a Bride who is ardently in love with Him, a Bride holy and pure unto Him. Yet, my friend, God’s desire is to restore us in holy love even as His second Adam. You see the Father’s desire is to enlarge His celestial family by restoring us to the glorious gleaming sons and daughters of the new Eden – robed in His pure light. We are to continually dwell with Him in the garden of God as in the cool of the day. The Father’s greatest desire is to restore us to moral perfection and purity. He does this as we yield to His grace. And the perfection He is talking about is not some misplaced notion regarding “maturity.” His grace conforms us to His own image if we allow it to do so. Jesus longs to recreate His own image in each of us and to restore us to the paradisiacal virginal purity that was lost through Adam’s fall and through original sin. And by His enabling grace, He can set us free from the temptation of sin or any desire of the knowledge or interest in it! Yes, my friend, there is such a place in Christ. Why not fully surrender to Him now? Deliver us from evil . Jesus prayed that we would not be led into temptation and that we would be delivered from evil. It is time for the Bride to become intoxicated with His love, to put on pure eyes, pure ears, pure thoughts and pure deeds – in short, to put on Christ-likeness. The supreme objective of the Father is to conform many sons and daughters into the image of His own dear Son. He must clothe our moral nakedness and fallen carnal nature with the righteousness and pure virginal light of Christ if we are to approach God with our worship. From sin – not in sin! Some say we are to approach God even when we are in sin but Jesus wants to save us from our sins so that we can be liberated to worship Him. God’s grace will meet you when you repent and humble yourself before the Lord. The choice is yours – yield to God’s enabling grace or resist and rebel. If you do resist, even though you may enjoy singing praise and worship songs, you will never be considered a true worshipper by the Lord.

  • Building Cold War Warriors: Socialization of the Final Cold War Generation
    BUILDING COLD WAR WARRIORS: SOCIALIZATION OF THE FINAL COLD WAR GENERATION Steven Robert Bellavia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Andrew M. Schocket, Advisor Karen B. Guzzo Graduate Faculty Representative Benjamin P. Greene Rebecca J. Mancuso © 2018 Steven Robert Bellavia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Andrew Schocket, Advisor This dissertation examines the experiences of the final Cold War generation. I define this cohort as a subset of Generation X born between 1965 and 1971. The primary focus of this dissertation is to study the ways this cohort interacted with the three messages found embedded within the Cold War us vs. them binary. These messages included an emphasis on American exceptionalism, a manufactured and heightened fear of World War III, as well as the othering of the Soviet Union and its people. I begin the dissertation in the 1970s, - during the period of détente- where I examine the cohort’s experiences in elementary school. There they learned who was important within the American mythos and the rituals associated with being an American. This is followed by an examination of 1976’s bicentennial celebration, which focuses on not only the planning for the celebration but also specific events designed to fulfill the two prime directives of the celebration. As the 1980s came around not only did the Cold War change but also the cohort entered high school. Within this stage of this cohorts education, where I focus on the textbooks used by the cohort and the ways these textbooks reinforced notions of patriotism and being an American citizen.

Its theme is love, The credit is almost always given, not to some charismatic leader, but to the Holy Spirit. From coast to coast, as a team of reporters for Home Missions and Baptist Press question- ed participants in the spiritual phenomenon, the youth unhesiatingly credited every good action to the Holy Spirit. The manifestations of their belief varied from the jabber of speaking in tongues and raised hands ans swaying bodies, to a quiet movement through the dry plains of nearly dead churches. Some youthful Christians who are "turned on to jesus" reject, however, the emphasis in speaking in tongues among other youth groups, Ironically, right here might come the theological battles of the movement, both over tongues, or "the baptism of the Spirit" as it is usually called, and over free expression of one's faith. Because of differing views on "~!cesolalia" (another name for speaking in tongued, some youth groups denied they were a part of the "Jesus movement, " as the media have labeled this national spiritual phenomenon. "No, we're not part of it, " one person wodd say.

Some will give God thanks for their spiritual bless- ings like salvation, healing, forgiveness, fellowship, the church and many other kindnesses that the Lord has bestowed on them. When I pastored, at Thanksgiving we would have services where we would attempt to not ask the Lord for anything and we would take the service to simply give thanks to the Him. It was hard having a service and not asking God for anything, but those services of Thanksgiving were truly a blessing. Of all the blessings that were mentioned during those services, I never heard mentioned the blessing that David mentioned here in Psalm 139. “Thou has beset me behind and before,” What David was thankful for was that he realized that he was surrounded by God! *Protection from Inward Temptations He knew the Lord went before him and walked behind III.
