God's Way is NOT "Survival of the Fittest"
No HOPE, unless we & our culture CHANGE to HIS Way
SORRY, it seems it's too LATE for the culture.
(BUT, Good News - "YOU" still have time)

“Ask the animals, and they will teach you,
or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you;
or speak to the earth, and it will teach you,
or let the fish in the sea inform you.
Which of all these does not know
that the hand of the LORD has done this?"
Job 12:7-9 (Rom 1:20; John 10:10-11)

2 Corinthians 3:18

Students, if God can use me in these small ways,
He can use anyone - especially you. 1Cor 1:26-28

Just an Old Sheepdog of the Good Shepherd - It's humbling to remember that even after rejecting Christianity as a young man and spending years researching world religions and philosophies, God's evidence by grace led me to Christ, now serving Him for 30 years in Christ-centered family counseling, science education, seminar speaking, animal-assisted ministry, and writing.

* Who impresses you?
After decades interviewing top scholars of science, philosophy, and theology, plus examining their research and conclusions, there is one person who alone impresses me. His-story and teachings reveal him to be the greatest scholar alive today.  In fact, evidence demonstrates beyond reasonable doubt that he is far more than a mere scholar.  He is our Creator, Christ, the only Self-existent "I AM" YHWH as predicted for thousands of years in 100's of detailed prophecies - His name is JESUS (Yeshua, meaning "God-Savior").
His wisdom is profound enough for any PhD, yet simple enough for any child.

"... the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"  And Jesus answered them, "Beware that no one deceive you .... many false prophets will arise and lead many astray ... lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold
.... then the end will come." Matthew 24:3-14

"Beware that no one takes you captive
through philosophy and empty deception,
according to the traditions of men,
according to the elementary principles of this world,
and not according to Christ."
Colossians 2:8

"In the first place,
the proponents of competing paradigms
[scientific worldviews]
will often disagree about the list of problems
that any candidate for paradigm must resolve.
Their standards or their definitions of science are not the same."
Thomas Kuhn
The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

God's priority is to protect, rescue, and restore those who are weak and vulnerable both physically and spiritually. Often forgotten is the fact that spiritual deception and abuse is far more devastating than physical. This sad reality is true not only for individuals personally, but even for whole cultures corporately - affecting future generations.

Children, women, and men are being oppressed spiritually and physically by predatory power players here in America & across the world. This escalating problem of "survival of the cruelest" at the expense of the weak in society should be a top priority of ours just as it is for God.
(Psalm 82:3-4; Jude 3-4)

(All 7 Power Points total about 700 PPT slides)

We pray and plead that you will invest your time:
- to protect, rescue, & restore the weak & vulnerable
(especially those oppressed under spiritual deceivers)
- to punish the predatory power players who prey on them
- For the honor of our Creator, the GOOD SHEPHERD

God's Way = Using yourself to meet the needs of others
Man's Way = Using others to get the desires of self
(survival of the fittest, selfish competition, suffering, fear, and death)

"If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,
and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,”
but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body,
what does it profit?
Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead."
James 2:15-17

Vulnerable boys/girls, single moms, young widows, poor men & women:
These are the Good Shepherd's priority. (Isaiah 58:6)
* I'll be gone soon, so young men and women - it's your turn now.

"But whoever has this world’s goods,
and sees his brother in need,
and shuts up his heart from him,
how does the love of God abide in him?
My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue,
but in deed and in truth."
1 John 3:17-18

It's your move. Please don't wait until it's too late!

Children & animals have a lot in common?

(In memory of my leopard friend Mandy - who saved my life)
(Yes students, that's Mandy & me over 30 years ago - only gray hair now)

Both are
vulnerable
to abuse
by people in power.

Yawning is contagious . . . so are cruelty & compassion

"Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this:
to visit [to personally help] orphans and widows in their suffering,
and to keep oneself unstained from the world [system].
James 1:27

"A Father to the fatherless, a Defender of widows,
is God in his holy dwelling."
Psalm 68:5

Cruel is becoming culturally cool

The WAY of "selfishness" subtly saturates every aspect of society.

People are being abused & enslaved like sheep by predators,
especially wolves in shepherd disguises - parasitic pastors.

The Good Shepherd said:
"... whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin,
it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea." (Matthew 18:6)

The way of the Anti-Shepherd
(the way of "survival of the fittest") . . .

. . . has replaced Judeo-Christian values:
(the way of the Good Shepherd)
- the way of the Cross

The worldview of "survival of the fittest"
is spiritual deception, which always leads to disorder, dysfunction, devolution, and death.

Think - Would a "good" God have designed violent competition as His WAY?

"... With righteousness He will judge the needy,
with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth
. . . .
... the wolf will lay down with the lamb
... and a little child will lead them

... the lion will eat straw like the ox ....

... they will not hurt or destroy in all my Holy Mountain,
for the Earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD."
Isaiah 11:6-10

The "image" of our GOOD Shepherd Creator-RESCUER
is seen throughout His creation and His creatures,
like this monkey trying to save his little puppy friend.
(yet creation is now infected with sin, separation, & suffering)

"Vindicate the weak and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.
Rescue the weak and needy;
Deliver out of the hand of the wicked.”
Psalm 82:3-4

"The LORD enters into judgment
against the elders and leaders of his people:
It is you who have ruined my vineyard;
the plunder from the poor is in your houses.
What do you mean by crushing my people
and grinding the faces of the poor?'
declares the Lord, the LORD Almighty."
Isaiah 3:14-15
