Is your life shakin’, shakin’ shakin’ shakin’?
Plant your feet on the foundation.
For God is shakin’ this whole creation,
As He creates His holy nation.
Is your life shakin’, shakin’ shakin’ shakin’?
Plant your feet on the foundation.
Apostles and prophets are that foundation,
And Jesus Christ is the Head.

You find bad logic in sources that supposedly teach logic or critical thinking. Those sources should be examples of rational thought, but they’re filled with irrational thinking. They forget to talk about the true premise. Not only that, but they have clever substitutes for truth. Here’s an example of this kind of teaching I found online:
All reasoning is based on DATA, INFORMATION and EVIDENCE. Restrict your claims to those supported by the data you have. Search for information that opposes your position as well as information that supports it. Make sure that all information used is clear, accurate, and relevant to the question at issue. Make sure you have gathered sufficient information.

There’s nothing wrong with this statement on the surface. Every part is helpful. However, it misses some vital conditions.
First, not all reasoning is based on data, information, and evidence. Go to any discussion group, and you’ll see a lot of reasoning but very little that’s based on data, information, or evidence. Mostly, you see bare claims and smokescreen fallacies. You see logical fallacies are strongly stated bare claims. Most people don’t even try to bring in data, information, or evidence. They may use magic words like “data,” “information,” “evidence,” or “science.” However, they don’t show you even a mirage of any data, information, or evidence. They just use the words as magic words. They have phantom data, phantom information, and phantom evidence. They might have phantom science. Then, they pretend they have shown you data, information, evidence, or science. They didn’t really show it. They only said the magic words.
Second, even if someone does present a premise, you’ll find a problem with the premise. The problem is the premise is not true. The premise may consist of data, information, and evidence interpreted in ways that go beyond the rules of logic. If you ask people how they know their premise is true, they may say, “I saw it on CNN” or “I saw it on Fox News.” They might say, “Everyone believes this.” They may say other people told them, they read it in a book, or they saw it in a movie. They may give some other unreliable reason you should believe them.
Remember, the human mind can’t reason to truth. It can’t be trusted. It can only reason to opinions. No one can get outside of himself or herself to observe objectively. Everyone is biased. Only one Person knows the Truth, is the Truth, tells only the Truth, and cannot lie. His name is Jesus.

Is anyone lonely?
Come to Me says the Lord.
Is any weary?
I will give you rest.
Does your life seem meaningless, hopeless, filled with fear.
Come to Me,
And I will give you rest.
In My presence,
You will find fullness of joy.
In My presence,
You will find peace.
In My presence,
You will listen to My voice.
And you will have the power to be free.
In My presence,
You will find fullness of joy.

You will find peace.

You will listen to My voice.

Experts and Intellectuals
Teachers of logic talk a lot about some things called “syllogisms,” which are ways of stating logical arguments. Syllogisms assume true premises. However, those who teach about syllogisms rarely concern themselves with true premises. They just assume their premises. They refer to premises as assumptions. Here’s the problem. Premises must be true for logic to be sound, but assumptions are never known truth. Imagine how confusing that is for students.
• Premises must be known to be true.
• Assumptions are never known to be true.
• Assumptions are premises.
These teachers probably know their reasoning isn’t rational when they fail to base their reasoning on truth. They probably know sound logic requires true premises. They most likely know deep down that truth is absolute by definition. They must know the human mind has no path to truth on its own. And yet, these teachers don’t teach this to their students.
That’s why logic becomes incomprehensible and confusing to students, but the students finally conform to the idea that they don’t need true premises. The students may not even consider the question of whether they need true premises.
The teacher and the textbook may not talk about truth. The students then lose the distinction between reality and make-believe. They’ve been educated into a deep level of ignorance. This isn’t education. It’s brainwashing. Brainwashed people become dogmatic in their ignorance. As the Bible says, “Thinking themselves wise, they become fools.”

Indestructible joy, only Jesus supplies.
And unshakable peace in His Spirit abides.
For the world can’t destroy, cannot cause it to cease,
This great vision ahead, which the eye of hope sees.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.
In the midst of the storm, oh, what comfort I feel,
For my indwelling Lord cometh ever more real.
For the world can’t destroy, cannot cause it to cease,
This great vision ahead, which the eye of hope sees.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.
Oh the world may squeeze and bring pressure to bear,
Try to shape and to mold, but then what do I care,
For the world can’t destroy, cannot cause it to cease,
This great vision ahead, which the eye of hope sees.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.
Let the enemy rage; let him rant; let him foam.
I continue with Christ toward my heavenly home,
For the world can’t destroy, cannot cause it to cease,
This great vision ahead, which the eye of hope sees.
Indestructible joy and unshakable peace.

Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion. ~ Hebrews 3:15b
God blesses those who listen to Him. If you listen and yield to the righteousness of Christ so Christ does His works through you, God changes you. God transforms you step by step. God transfigures you from glory to glory into the image of Christ by the Spirit of the Lord. This is what it is when you walk in the Spirit. You don’t stay in one place. You become a wayfaring person. The Holy Spirit moves you. You’re a stranger in a strange land looking for a city.
No one comes to Jesus Christ except by the voice of God. The Father draws each one to the Son. God speaks to them through at least one of His methods of divine revelation and probably through many of those methods. If you speak by the Spirit of God, God may bring someone to faith by the words He speaks through you.
Most people don’t base their beliefs on rational thought. They don’t make decisions based on rational thought unless they yield themselves to the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, people make decisions based on emotion and fallacies. And then they use other fallacies to try to make their decisions seem rational. That’s why fallacies work so well. Irrational thinking can become a habit and seem normal. Fallacies can become a way of life. When deceived people run into some element of the truth, they think the truth is strange or even evil.
Jesus Christ is the Truth and the only Source of Truth. He’s real and knowable. Everyone who seeks Him finds Him. He directs, instructs, and disciplines every person who follows Him. Hopefully, I’ve brought this down to the nuts-and-bolts level and made it practical.

It’s wonderful to be born again, but you must grow up to His fullness. Christ is coming to His body in His parousia, which is His abiding presence. Parousia is a Greek word. The English Bibles generally translate “parousia” as “coming.” It means “abiding presence.” Christ is coming to His body to live in His body and be seen in His body.
Someone said those Christians who aren’t interested in Christ coming to His body won’t be happy when Christ returns for His body. Christians who won’t listen to God as He’s speaking will not be in a good place when Jesus returns. Christians who listen to ungodly people will not be in a good place when Christ returns. And there is no middle ground. There’s no place for those who want to be lukewarm, neither hot nor cold.
Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion. ~ Hebrews 3:15b

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness. For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse. For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images of mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! Amen. For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful. They invent new forms of evil; they disobey their parents. They are senseless, faithless, heartless, merciless. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them. ~ Romans 1:18-32
Notice what’s happening. They refuse to acknowledge God. God has been giving them everything they need to survive, and this includes the revelation of reality so they can think and survive. But they refuse to thank God or glorify Him. They turn from the Light into darkness. Their foolish hearts, or minds, become dark. And they can’t see in the dark. Their thinking becomes futile. They think they’re wise, but they start to become fools. Since they prefer darkness, God lets them have their way. Into the darkness they go.
The first chapter of Romans applies also to Christians. You must be intimate with Him. You must be listening to His voice and allowing Him to correct you and have full sway over you. You must acknowledge Him and glorify Him when He speaks. If you are walking in the Spirit and learning to yield to God’s leading in your life, you’re finding out just how difficult it is to do this. How far does God want you to go? He wants you to go all the way with Him.

In the valley, He restoreth my soul
In the stillness, He satisfies my longing heart
He walketh with me in green pastures
And by the cool streams.
In the shadows, He is my comfort and strength
In sorrow, He soothes my aching heart
He carries me high above the waves of despair
and loves me when I seem so unlovable, and unlovely.
He says, “Thou art my beloved, I will never leave thee
Peace be still.
I love thee, and will carry you to my
Kingdom, oh, one so fair.
For I see your heart, and its desires
And you desire me well, and longingly
You will not be alone, for you shall reach out
Too many empty and lonely souls.
Compel them to come in
where the ‘Sonshine’ will warm their hearts.
Be not afraid to reach out
To a lost and dying world
Don’t hold back my Love
As I have given you
Freely give
And allow the Spirit to flow.
Some may seem to reject
Many will hunger for Truth
And the Love that is in you
Which is Christ Jesus.
Go My Love,
My lovely one
I will be in you,
And with you each step of the way.
You shall be strong
For My Spirit makes you whole,
So that you can do the work that I have called you to do.
Be Faithful, and you shall receive Life Everlasting.”

As the children of the Light walk into the Light and shine out, those who hate the Light will hate the children of the Light. The Light is Christ Himself flowing out through His people. The righteousness of Christ flows out like Light. Some people love sin and hate righteousness. They turn from the Light and walk into darkness.
Those who hate the Light react when they’re exposed to the Light. They retreat further into the darkness of their own minds. Their senseless minds are darkened. They finally come to the place where they can’t tell virtue from wickedness or what’s real from what’s imaginary. They leave sanity and they’re clever at devising evil plans. You’re seeing this now all around you as it’s playing out before your eyes. It’s why the world is so crazy.

IN HIS FATHER’S HOUSE ARE MANY ABODES
In His Father’s house are many abodes.
He is preparing a place for you.
You are the abiding place of the Holy Ghost.
For the Lord shall come to you.
Suddenly, one day, He’ll fill His House.
The veil will be torn in two.
And the veil of your flesh shall be removed.
And He shall shine forth from you.
And you shall be placed and adopted,
As a manifested son.
Co-workers with Jesus now, in a new way.
And the Church shall all be one.
Every enemy shall be slain.
And death will be the last one.
He shall come to receive His holy Bride.
For the victory will be won.

The Greek word translated as “mansions” is μονή (monē), meaning dwelling place, abode, or room. It carries the idea of a place to stay, but it does not necessarily mean a grand or luxurious estate as we typically think of “mansions” today.
When the KJV was translated in 1611, the English word “mansion” could simply mean a dwelling place or a lodging — not necessarily a palatial home. Over time, however, “mansion” in English evolved to mean a large, impressive house. So modern readers sometimes imagine heaven as full of luxury houses, which is not quite what Jesus was saying.
Modern Translations
Modern English Bibles often translate it differently to reflect the original sense:

And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone whose name shall be found written in the book. Daniel 12:1
Life without Christ eventually leads to closeness to Satan. Even among those who say Satan doesn’t exist, they begin to flow in Satan’s spirit. They start to carry an evil that any follower of Christ can sense. Many of the godless try to walk a line of self-righteousness and virtue signalling. They want to look good without Jesus Christ. However, that way of living is empty, and increasing numbers of ungodly thinkers are turning to the occult in one form or another.
On the other hand, some people are seeking the Light, walking in the Light, and becoming the Light. As Christ said:
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. ~ Matthew 5:14
The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining brighter and brighter until midday. ~ Proverbs 4:18
