TRUE WELFARE  
 

In the end of the 20th century, despite our high level of scientific knowledge and technology, the world is suffering from all kinds of illnesses, criminality, oppression and wars. In most nations, two opposing camps are in constant conflict with each other, primarily concerned only by political power for their own adeps. All over the world, extremely powerful forces punish the nations with "inexplicable" catastrophes. Quakes, storms, floods and fires destroying homes for millions of people. Illness and despondency in every nation on earth. In the scriptures, the Bible and the Quran, these events are described in detail as acts God, to punish the people for their disbelief, arrogance, sins, corruption and rebellion.

Despite the destruction of our nations, there always seem to be people defending those who cause corruption and misery. A majority goes astray in ignorance, wickedness, criminality, greed, hedonism and idol worship. Political "leaders" do not reject the egoism in our corrupt societies, since they need the majority's votes to stay in power. This is the dilemma of our democracy, a kind of institutionalized disbelief. To please the crowd any false idea is promoted as being 'good'.

I want to explain why we must return to the Law of God, if we want to create the true welfare state, and how we must proceed in order to reach this objective. It is based on the assumption that welfare is a desirable goal for our nations and that people are willing to strive to improve the knowledge and standard of living for their own children.

Our nations were built on the assumption that God exists and that the sacred scriptures are given by our Creator to guide people out of darkness to the light, away from the influence of Satan. The fundamental principles of Law provided by our Creator, the Redeemer, the Ruler, the Father in Heaven, are better than any other law. Only by obeying only God's Law
, and by submitting to Him Alone, can we succeed. I hear those who scream fanatically, "God does not exist?" and I quote,

"Who then gave us the scriptures? Who then gave you the eyesight and the hearing? Who then do you call upon when you're in need? How can you reject the One who provides for you?"

We will succeed, only when we accept that those who obey the good words of God are better than those who follow the words of Satan. They are not equal. Qualities and deficiencies are inherited. Only by studying God's scriptures can we improve. Ethics, love, honesty, productivity, gratitude, morals, law-abiding behavior, unselfishness, and our value to society are worth striving for. God teaches us with His own words.

  SEEK THE TRUTH A righteous soul rejects crime and destruction. He works to find the truth, by rejecting the arguments supporting those who earn money from corruption or sin. A righteous soul is not arrogant or ungrateful, but humble, chaste, grateful, hard working and productive. A corrupt rebel, on the other hand, his egoism, greed and idolatry promote arguments that are contrary to the truth. The righteous soul is guided to the light by the good words of God, while the rejecter is seduced by the lies of Satan into the deep darkness of ignorance. Are they equal?

Justice, law and order, love, family and procreation, these are basic values of human life on earth, if we want to succeed. When nations accept destructive and sinful behavior, they will obviously not be successful. When egoism dominates over righteousness, any nation becomes oppressive. When taxation is too high, a family father can no longer fulfil his duty to provide for his wife and family. When the state becomes oppressive, the ~ man's ability to provide is eliminated and the women rebel by demanding 'equality', out of fear. True love and children are forgotten. When the bankers and rich individuals are demanding too high interest to lend money for investments, the economy will suffer. We find all these principles clearly spelled out in our Lord's scripture. The same with abortion, it is a crime to kill the life that God has created in the wombs of the women. The 'welfare' state that was built upon dialectic materialism and 'scientific socialism' has proven to be a dead end, a satanic system.

  GUIDANCE IN THE SCRIPTURES In His scriptures, our Lord painstakingly spells out every mistake we do, and the steps we should follow to find true happiness. For the believers, it is easy to obey our Lord. However, only a few people seem to care. A majority prefers misery to happiness, straying to guidance, out of arrogance.

  SUBMISSION TO GOD ALONE IS HAPPINESS According to the scriptures, God is Almighty. God controls everything. God has designed the sun and the moon to follow precise orbits, He is the One who decides when, where and how much it will rain. Water is the source of all life on earth. God controls our hearts and other body functions. He is the one who made the woman beautiful and graceful in order for the man to love her. We get ill when we do not obey our Lord. The scientists agree that all illnesses have a psychosomatic origin, i.e. a disorder in our soul. We get sick when we are confused and misguided, when our minds are not in order, when we are hit by bad conscience and stress, when our societies are oppressive, corrupt and malfunctioning.

Only by obeying the Law of God will we succeed. Only by submitting to God Alone will we get true welfare and happiness.
