Just Words

“Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”

The above instructions are from the Master himself, Jesus the son of Mary.  It is not surprising given the way the democratic presidential primaries are shaping up with Barak Obama steam-rolling over all candidates primary after primary that Senator Hillary Clinton would began to hurl political barbs onto the tracks to try to derail that which must seem like a runaway train to her and her supporters.  Her accusation that Barack is using “just words” must necessarily call into question her judgment, especially in light of what Jesus taught and her claim of being a true Christian.  If one is speaking God’s words then in the word of God is His own Spirit.  In His Words are life, light and power.  If a true believer and follower of Christ speaks God’s Words in his name then those words have in them life, light and power equal to that of the Father.  Jesus demonstrated this and chided those of little faith that if they had the faith of a grain of a mustard seed then they could say, i.e. speak “”just words”, to the mountain to be removed and the mountain would be removed.

Barack Obama speaks words of truth and in his words is the light to overcome the darkness of political division and the night of partisan schisms.  Obama’s words have life in them to overcome the death of voter apathy and the dying spirit of cynicism and distrust.  Barack’s words have the power in them to overcome the powerlessness of the masses in the face of the all-powerful claws of big business, lobbyists and special interest.

Those who would discount the Master’s teachings for political gain are those whose words are no more than political hot air.  Furthermore, the Constitution of the United States of America was “just 4,543 words” but those words wove a few states together and vaulted them to their rendezvous with their destiny, which was to become the greatest superpower in the history of the world.  “Just words” Mrs. Clinton – “just words”.
