Government Advisory

 The Question:  Could Christians who became "Awake," like what has been taught on this blog, could they end up working for a Government....sort of like the Old Testament Prophets.  

Yes.  

Who is in The Chain of Command?  Someone may need to be independent, with an independent income. The danger is that someone becomes a "Pet Prophet," or something...someone who is telling people what they want to hear to keep the money coming in.  Also, if there were Occult people in the chain of command.....who is someone serving?  Satan or The Lord Jesus Christ?  A man could potentially be an independent contractor or advisor.    

Writing about this topic too much, I may accidentally box some people in.  In this blog, given someone is growing in faith, and following sound wisdom, they could end up being called towards a lot of different things.  The City of LA may need a Man of God.  The State of Texas may need a Man of God.  Someone may be called to help a particular Church.  It is whatever God calls someone to.  Given God calls someone, it may have been between a man and God.  The burden or proof is on the man working in God's Holy Spirit.  

The Internet gives "Frame of Reference."  We are in a technological age where there is a lot of information out there.  Having Frame of Reference helps with perceiving things through God's Holy Spirit.  A lot of people take things like the Printing Press and the Internet for granted.  There is a lot of information at your finger tips.  God may guide someone to the right answers.  

Question:  Given we were raising a generation up where they could potentially receiving a calling, and do some big things for God, what types of things may they need towards preparation?  

I like a more Classical Education or Perennial Education with a focus on enduring themes through history.  We may be able to see God in those enduring themes.  Why is someone learning Greek and Latin or Hebrew?  Those are the languages the Bible was written in.  Classical Education today, depending on who is teaching it, it tends towards a Paganism.  Instead, a Classical or Perennial Education should be centered on God and the Bible.  

Article:  "Why A Classical Education Is Almost Impossible Today."  From The Federalist 

Jesus sent his disciples out in twos with nothing but the clothes on their backs.  A man may need some "time in the field."  I don't care to over describe what that may entail.  A man may need a few years applying the things he learned in school, and learning to lean on God.    

Did I have a Classical Education?  No.  I went to a US public school, nothing special.  I suppose I read a lot on my own.  I read history and politics and philosophy books.  I am a certified teacher.  Given I was building a curriculum or school, I would choose to make it more of a Classical Education towards setting young people up for success growing in faith.
