When Really Bad Things Get Worse

I guess the readers of folkpotpourri probably think the old man who posts here has finally gone off the rails, but I’ve been trying to get a couple of points across lately, and it’s my heartfelt intent to communicate them in a way that sinks in. Never mind then, that you might be reading an essay written by a crazy old codger from the hills, and just pay attention to what he is saying.

While the US has been relatively unaffected by most of the events going on in faraway places thus far, if people think it’s going to stay that way, they are tripping. Our leaders have gone stark-raving mad, and it’s just a matter of time until they make the granddaddy of all mistakes. Right now, as you read this in the comfort and safety of your living room (assuming the incredible tornado outbreaks, floods, and other weather anomalies of late have left you with a living room in which you may sit and read) there are human-designed processes taking place which threaten to turn our world into nightmarish hellscape, a horrific series of events which could transpire within any given few minutes. I did a post a while back on what it might be like. A Time of Unimaginable Sorrow is Upon Us – Folk Potpourri

Go ahead and change the channel if you don’t like confronting your likely future if things continue as they are going. It’s understandable that one might prefer not to think about such frightening possibilities, and much more desirable to turn to the latest distractions, the reality TV shows that the US congresspeople have begun to air where some AIPAC shill congressman or senator pretend to tear into some hapless cabinet member in a “congressional investigation”. Or there’s always football. Whatever bread and circus you choose – until the very end. Or stick around and see where I’m going with this.

The truth is, that if the governments of NATO and other western nations continue to push the Russians, there is going to be hell to pay. Same thing for aggravating Xi and the Chinese. The whole world is thoroughly fed up with the US and Israel, who controls the US, dictating to everyone how things are going to be. They will all get enough. There’s not a living soul in the world with a functioning brain who still believes the US didn’t blow up the Nordstream pipelines. Germany, or at least the German people watch their country sinking in the ocean of global economics because of the loss of cheap Russian gas. How long will Scholz and the rest of his servants of global Zionism be able to keep up the facade? What I’m trying to say is that our brilliant leaders and think tanks are going to be unpleasantly surprised when the SHTF and they find that many of our trusted allies, even in NATO, have chosen to join with our adversaries. Türkiye is already alluding that they will not join any aggression against Russia.

The American people themselves are rapidly waking up to the fact that they have long been deceived by their own government. Now that the genocide lies are buzzing around the noisome cesspool that is the US government, folks are asking the obvious questions, such as, “Now that we realize they constantly lie to us about everything from the Minsk accords to Israel acting in “self-defense” in Gaza, what else have they been lying to us about?” Could 9/11 actually have been an inside job? What about Covid and the horrific results of the inoculations? It’s becoming plainly obvious for everyone with eyes and ears that EVERYTHING that comes from the US government is a bald-faced lie. And who, pray tell has been named as the father of all lies?

The second major point this post is aiming for is that there is a way to defeat this evil. This dark and ominous cloud that threatens to enshroud the world will eventually bring about the total destruction of human existence. It’s going to happen – you can see it coming like the proverbial slow-motion train wreck. We continue to live as though it won’t affect us, but it assuredly will. There is however, a sure way to avoid this catastrophe that is coming upon the world, and that is through faith in Jesus Christ. It is the only way. We have been warned over and over that the tribulations of the end times will bring about the ultimate destruction of our world, yet we try and convince ourselves that somehow things are going to go back to normal. They won’t! With all the mistrust that has been sown, there’s no way they can.

We have infallible prophecy in the Bible that predicts exactly what is going on right now. The love of many grows cold, and there are those who do not love at all. Wars and rumors of wars – Jesus warned us of these things, and He said not to fear them, yet all we see in the world is fear. Perfect love casts out fear. Love is what we should strive for, because love is the most potent force in all of creation. It is the consummate weapon that will prevail over all of the destructive efforts of Satan and his minions on earth. God is Love. His love was on full display on Calvary Hill over two thousand years ago when He allowed His Son to be sacrificed for each and every one of us. From Highland shepherds, African truckers and rickshaw drivers in Mumbai to fishermen in Japan and Russia, Jesus stands ready to accept us into a Kingdom not made by the hands of men, we can trade this ominous fear of the happenings in the world today for a new expectation of a life of unimaginable peace and joy if we but give Him the keys to our life and follow His cross.

Satan has worked since the advent of mankind for exactly what the world is right now. He is spreading hatred and fear, destruction of nations and deaths of people, just as he has planned for centuries. He has no love or loyalty to anyone, but his servants don’t know that, or maybe they’re just ignoring it like so many people are ignoring the horrible future of this world. How can people be so deceived as to follow entities that could not care less for their well-being? Look at Diem of South Vietnam, Khadafi, Saddam Hussein, Daniel Noriega, Ferdinand Marcos, Shah Pahlavi, and all of the other (former) friends of the US and how things turned out for them. They all met with bad endings when the US was through being their ally. Look at Germany now, sans Nordstream, with the devastation to their economy. My point is that evil entities such as Satan or the US government care not for anyone, even their friends or servants, and when things get thick, they invariably abandon them or even turn on them. None other than the first-class war criminal Kissinger said that being an adversary of the US is dangerous, but being a friend is fatal.

What you need is a friend who will not abandon or turn on you but stick by your side, especially when things go south. Jesus is that Friend and considering that He is THE MOST POWERFUL BEING in all of creation, He is the very best Friend we can have. A Friend Who loves us enough that He willingly laid down His life for us. Now that we are facing these hard times, we need a Friend like that, but there’s only One who can be that Friend – Jesus Christ.

Give Him your trust – you have a lot to gain when you do and everything to lose if you don’t.

God bless all – it’s going to be a rough ride – at least for a while.

A Circle Where Worlds Collide

There might be a link from the physical world to the spiritual. I’m neither a scientist nor a preacher, but just from the layman’s POV, I’m starting to think there’s some kind of connection to the work of scientists nowadays and the rapid spread of evil in the world. I’m talking about the extreme malevolence of some world leaders and the wealthy guys who are running the world, the ones who tell the “leaders” how to lead and tell the scientists what they should be studying, and of course the malevolence of the scientists themselves. Though the plandemic also fits in this discussion, it’s not what’s this post is about.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s noticed the absolute insanity of western leaders and the kinds of inexplicable decisions they’ve been making lately. It’s beginning to look like they’re dead set on driving our contentious relationships with countries like Russia, China, and Iran – all the way to nuclear war. For real, even a kid could understand that the things they are doing are headed for bad consequences. In fact, judging from the actions on college campuses, I think kids do see it.

Right now, our illustrious leaders are playing a game of chicken with (thankfully) sensible counterparts in Russia. They’re pretending to make the rules up as they go, each stupid step they take toward war. “Ok, we can give Ukraine weapons that might incinerate Moscow, but we won’t let Zelensky hit targets inside Russia, therefore we won’t be technically participating,” or ” We can send advisors and technical experts, but as long as they’re not on the front lines, they can’t be considered combatants.”

Now we’ve graduated to “Ok, y’all can hit inside Russia, but only just across the border.” These imbeciles fully expect that Vladimir Putin recognizes and abides by their “rules”, but I don’t think he does, in fact he doesn’t even recognize western powers’ authority to make such insane rules to start with. Never mind that he doesn’t for a moment consider abiding by them. Mr. Putin reserves the right to contravene whatever passes for western military doctrine if and when he decides to, he’s shown himself to be that kind of leader up to now, and there’s no reason to expect him to change. Putin knows, as does anyone else, at least those with above room temperature IQ, that although today they only allow Ukraine to hit border regions, tomorrow it will be ok to hit targets 500 miles into Russia, the next day 1,000 miles, and so forth, until they get to that red line – the final one. Then all hell breaks loose on western targets worldwide.

The madness I’m speaking of is apparent for all to see, throughout the US congress, the white house, and in all departments concerned with foreign policy. It’s becoming the norm in European governments, Japan and Australia too. But how did this insanity all of a sudden become so prevalent in western leadership?

When Jesus was in the countryside of the Gergesenes, He encountered a demon-possessed man who had several demons. He was totally insane, ran around naked and cutting on himself with sharp stones. No one could subdue him, such was the power of the demons inside him, but when Jesus approached him, the demons recognized that a higher power than theirs was present, so they begged Him not to send them to the pit, but release them into a herd of pigs, which He did. Now interestingly, the pigs decided they weren’t going to tolerate being possessed by these abominable beings, so they immediately committed mass suicide by running down into the lake and drowning.

A few years ago, the scientific community decided that we should build this large hadron collider, a souped-up atom smasher, ostensibly to study the origins of the universe, or some such nonsense that would have absolutely no value to humanity. They had dancers at the opening, performing a ritual dance to a Hindu goddess – I think it was Shaiva or something, anyways it was for a false god of some kind, which was a curious thing, especially for those scientific types to do.

The project started, and at enormous expense, to do whatever they claimed humankind so desperately needed to do, but there were those who doubted the professed intent of the project, myself being one. Some even believed they were trying to create a portal to another dimension, from which they might possibly receive “visitors”. What if they did just that? What if this whole CERN thing was a plot to gain access to demons and release them into the world? Is the collider the “key” to the bottomless pit, spoken of in Revelation?

Where would the demons go in order to create the most destruction and death? To the most powerful nation on earth of course, and one whose leaders would be amenable (for the right price) to whatever mayhem the evil creatures decided to perpetrate. What if those demons promptly possessed western leaders and proceeded to commit acts of unspeakable evil? Are our congressmen the new herd of pigs? They certainly seem to be headed for the suicide part! And have you noticed the seemingly uncontrollable anger and snarls from guys like Graham when they speak of people whom they deem their enemies? Are they possessed, and is that the reason behind all of this insanity, and that so recently as the opening days of CERN?

Now I already know what you’re thinking – this could be (a tad bit) over the top, but in this day of lies and deceit and incredible evil, it might be something to chew on. I’m not even saying this is what’s happening, but these people are acting strange – evil strange! I mean, for crying out loud, we’re watching wholesale murder and starvation of little kids, and our leaders think it’s all ok, even get mad at you and put you in jail for disagreeing with it. Something ain’t right, folks.
