"I Desire Mercy, Not Sacrifice"
These words do not Absolve one from Offering Sacrifice to God, but if one does, it must be Preceeded by Mercy, which is a True Love for Thier Bretheren.
Mankind, without God, always seems to cascade into a pit of Depression and Misery, as has happened so many times, when the people, straying from Worshiping Thier "Creator," start believing in those who will Demand The same Faith, but will Direct that Devotion and Worship not only to themselves by Promising Everythig while eventually delivering Nothing,
But, once captivated by thier Lies, they will Demand "Absolute Obedience," in other words, "Submission" and when that happens, there will be little that one can do about it, for once Enslaved, projected "Fear" will keep everyone in line, Adoring the same False God, "The State."
Such a Tradegy always Begins with the promise of an Earthly Utopia, where everyone is the same, and has Everything they Need, which sounds good, but that's where it Ends, for once the majority has been Fooled into turning over thier Freedoms and thier Faith in God, for what they "perceive" as "Economic Security" to the Political Elite, they will be Enslaved by thier own greed and Envy, becoming a "KEPT" People, as can be seen throughout History.
Only Christianity, which is Belief in The "One True" and Merciful God, Will Ever BE The Salvation of Mankind.
No Doubt, There are always going to be Charismatic individuals, with evil intent, who rise up, with the ability to Decieve those weak in virtue, playing on thier desire for an "Easy Life,"
Whereas, by Following Christ, The True Savior of The World, Who speaks of "Picking up your Cross" and Following Him, not in some fatalistic laziness that simply "Gives up," but rather He urges us to Better Ourselfves and Humanity through the "Sanctification of Work" and by Conquering Ourselves through The practice of Christian "Morality" in our Daily lives.
The Message of Our Lord Therefore, is Not one of "Material Fulfillment" in the Here and Now, but rather Hope in The World to come, realizing that we must conquer our Fallen Nature through Grace.
We are Pilgrims, and as such we know that we are, "On Our Way Home."
As "Citizens of Heaven," it is our Duty to leave this world a Better place by the lives we live.Therefore The Legacy that we as Followers of Christ Must leave behind, should be one of Love, Mercy, Forgiveness, Generosity and a Faith that has Been a True Witness to The World of The Gospel of Jesus Christ!
God Bless You
