. . . while the Neocon and GOP Establishment heartily dislike Ted Cruz, they actually fear and loathe Trump. 

Trump, is not a "movement conservative," that is, he is not a Republican candidate schooled in the narrative of Neoconservatism (while Marco Rubio wallows in it). 

In the current political context, the term "conservative" is used so cavalierly that every GOP candidate now claims the mantel: Jeb, Kasich, Christie, Rubio, and so on: all claim to be "movement (or mainstream) conservatives."

the keeper

THE KEEPER

David rose up early

in the morning, and 

left the sheep with a keeper, 

and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the trench, as the host was going forth to the fight, and shouted for the battle. 21For Israel and the Philistines had put the battle in array, army against army. 22And 

David left his carriage 

in the hand of the keeper 

of the carriage, and ran into the army, and came and saluted his brethren.

Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle. 29And David said, What have I now done? 

Is there not a cause?

1 Samuel 17

. . . it is required in stewards,  that a man be found faithful." ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭4:2‬ ‭

DATAMINING, IDENTITY & SAFETY

"In much the way that fish cannot conceptualize water or birds

the air, man barely understands his infosphere, that encircling

layer of electronic and typographical smog composed of clichés

from journalism, entertainment, advertising and government". - R.Z. Sheppard

 

WHO ARE YOU?

INTEROGATION – the search for identity

Throughout time, it has always been important to know who one's friends are. Nowhere has this been more obvious than in military conflicts, where for centuries, flags, banners, insignia and uniforms have allowed adversaries to distinguish their cohorts from others who might have less friendly intentions. And, in darkness, when those visual means of identification were impossible, the business of using passwords and countersigns achieved the same end.

FAA regulations require that all aircraft, military or civilian, flying at an altitude of 10,000 feet or higher in U.S. controlled airspace, must be equipped with an operating IFF transponder system capable of automatic altitude reporting. 

With supersonic aircraft and swift antiaircraft missiles, there is no time to identify friendly forces by visual means. IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) is an electronic system which can determine the intent of an aircraft with the speed of the fastest computer. A related system is used for air traffic control at civilian airports. Litton is a world leader in the development and manufacture of military IFF systems.

moving

Can you imagine Noah's mom at the PTA meeting saying to her friends
"we never expected that of him, nobody's ever built an Ark before".

She had gotten involved at the 'triplets' (Ham, Shem & Japeth) school because Noah was so "caught up" in the 'construction project'.

Noah was not performing above or below expectation. He was performing OUTSIDE expectation.

Have you ever
"moved with fear"
on an 'assignment'?

Hebrews 11 - By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.

The Christian experience is a perpetual series of 'unexpected' projects. Let us learn to "move with fear" to the "saving of our house".

Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

The ones outside the Ark as the rains began; realized that they had "despised" Noah's "wisdom and instruction".

Respecting

A CALL TO COURTESY

1 Peter 2:17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

HONOR
VALUE
PRIZE

Men and women of honor speak to the soul; they speak to that which in every living human is real and true. The reason for this is because honor, whatever it is determined to be, is itself honest, good, beautiful, and true. - Jeremy A. Kee

We live in a time where "putting down" is popular. People frequently belittle each other in jest. We routinely disregard one another with discourteous comments and actions.
Have we become an impolite society?

If the Christian is to "stand out" as a light in a dark culture, then his/her behavior is respectful and honoring of others.

The bible gives clear ideas:

1. VALUING OTHERS
Philippians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

2. CARING ABOUT OTHERS
1 Peter 3:8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

3. SELFLESSNESS
Proverbs 15:33 The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.

THE EXHORTATION
1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
