The Culmination of Human Tenure at the Door

Have you heard about the super volcano Campi Flegri? If not, it’s located on the west coast of Italy beside the Tyrrhenian Sea, which is a part of the Mediterranean. It’s also quite close to Vesuvius, the volcano that destroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum when it erupted back in 79 A.D.

There are currently about 75 active volcanoes which are erupting right now, and no one is sure what they will end up contributing to the earth’s climate, but the super volcano Campi Flegri is stirring of late, and if it cuts loose, we will have a lot more to worry about. Scientists warn of a “volcanic winter” from millions of tons of dust and ash in the atmosphere which might result in catastrophic failures of crops, maybe worldwide, for who knows how long. If enough ash gets into the atmosphere, jet engines wouldn’t be able to tolerate it, so there goes that vacation to Rio. On the plus side, military aircraft would be grounded too, so those countries which rely on planes to bomb their enemies would have to come up with some other means of destroying places and murdering people.

The world has gone without a significant natural catastrophe for a long time. I’m talking about something big, like a major asteroid strike or super volcano eruption that could threaten life on the planet. There is a noticeable uptick, however, in wildfires, floods, hailstorms, and tornado outbreaks, but nothing on the scale of a truly global apocalypse like what could be expected from something like Campi Flegri. Maybe, just maybe, God is trying to tell us something. Perhaps the ways of the world have once again become too evil for Him to tolerate. Biblical prophecy says we’ll get there.

The world is being increasingly inured to evil events, such as genocide. The world suffers from an epidemic moral collapse. That’s obviously Satan’s plan, to get the world to a point where we are no longer shocked at pictures of dismembered children or LBGTF parades. Where we see completely destroyed cities, once vibrant centers of human activity, and just ignore them. A point where unspeakable evil is the norm. They tried that in the world before Noah’s flood, and in the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah. If you remember those stories, you’ll remember things didn’t work out so well for the people involved.

The Bible says the next destruction visited on this world will be by fire, and from the looks of things with all these volcanoes going off and the ever-increasing threat of nuclear war, there’s ample opportunity for things to get way out of hand. Until now, we never considered what might be the result of a massive solar flare, which some scientists think might be an infrequent, but regularly occurring event. How about several of those things happening at once?

One scientist I watch thinks the world is going through a phase of magnetic field reversal which will include the planet actually flipping to where the north and south poles will be relocated to different places on the earth. That event would produce giant tsunamis worldwide, and Antarctica and the North Pole would end up near or at the equator. I know it sounds crazy, but he says there’s scientific evidence that it has occurred regularly in the geologic history of the planet.

Whatever God has in store for us, it’s shaping up to be quite the ride. The Bible tells us there will be some rough times, and that we have to get right with Him to end up on the right side of things. The best advice I can give you is to get to know Jesus Christ. He is the only route to salvation from this evil world. Whatever apocalyptic events that happen will be no threat to those who trust in Him. Keep your eye on the big picture and understand that there is another life, a reality and a happiness that far exceeds anything we have known on this old earth. Where in this life we have fear and despair, in the next one, there will be nothing but peace and joy in the presence of the Father and the Lamb.

Whatever might happen, know that at the end you will pass through a door from this world of darkness and despair into a magnificent Kingdom of eternal happiness where there will be no tears or sorrow of any kind. The beloved Savior Jesus Christ will be waiting at that door to welcome you into that magnificent Kingdom where you will be with Him forevermore. We will not, nor will God, even remember the evil events that took place during the time of humanity in this world – unfortunately for them, neither will He remember the evil people who practiced it as they burn in the eternal flames of hell. So don’t waste your time hating on them, God will prevail.

Meanwhile, may the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

Negotiating the Winding Path of Prophecy

I can’t believe this is all happening so fast! Never thought I’d live to see the end coming, but here it is, bearing down on us like a runaway freight train. Right now, Satan is on his game as never before – he knows his time is about up, and he’s lighting this world up with every weapon in his arsenal. If they aren’t pointed at us, we’re doing something wrong.

I’m old now and retired, so if the weather’s not right for outdoor work I sit around watching videos on social media, and I’ve seen a lot of changes lately in the things that are presented. Recently there are lots of shows about end time prophecy with presenters giving differing viewpoints on what’s going on, in fact there are so many interpretations out there right now, if a person isn’t rightfully discerning, it would be easy to get confused. That’s what this post is about, we need to take a deep breath and get back to the fundamentals of our faith. We were told things would come unwound at the end, and if we find ourselves trying to jump on every train that comes by us, we might end up going somewhere we don’t need to be. We need to spend as much time as possible in study and prayer. And loving and encouraging each other while ignoring the whims of the world. Jesus stands ready to help us at every juncture, but we have to be willing to listen to Him. Sometimes that requires swallowing a lot of pride, which probably shouldn’t be there in the first place, and if it is, he’ll (often quite painfully) show us that too. Not because God enjoys putting us through painful experiences, but because we have probably spent too much of our lives pretending we are someone or something different than what we actually are. So, we have to get beyond the pride part to go the right way.

As far as pride goes, you can take this bit of advice from someone who has tasted enough crow to be quite familiar with it’s flavor. I’ve only experienced the downside of allowing pride to blind me to reality because God decided to show me things that I had long ignored, and yes, it was a difficult part of my journey, and things happened that caused me to even question my faith, but all in all it wasn’t a bad thing. Jesus said, [Revelation 3:19]: “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.” and what it says in Proverbs 3:12, “For whom the Lord loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.” When we come out from under the cloud of chastisement, we are able to realize there was a reason for God allowing us to go through times of testing. And what an honor and a privilege to know He is taking the time to train us!

We are educated in the ways of the Spirit precisely to prepare us for things like these confusing days we are enduring. Jesus gave us our Spiritual education to be able to discern which of the many interpretations of prophecy are worth listening to. For instance, if whatever narrative you encounter does not give glory to Jesus Christ and honor Him, at best it is only superficial, but more often than not, it’s just plain false teaching. Satan has a lot of that out there nowadays. The dragon is at war with a greater ferocity than ever to destroy the woman. Of course, the woman is Jesus’ Church.

The first thing I look for is whether or not the narrator even mentions the name of Jesus. If not, it’s automatically false. Jesus said, [John 14:6]: “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” So how could any message that excludes mention of Jesus be valid? If Jesus is mentioned, does the narrative mention Him in a positive and authoritative light? If not, it is highly suspect. There are many more devices to watch out for, and the Spirit will reveal them to you if you listen to Him. Jesus will not allow you to follow false teachings if your heart is right with Him. [Matthew 5:8]: “Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.” But again, being pure at heart might necessitate engaging in that ego-threatening battle with pride.

Another thing I’m noticing – it’s about the commercials out there nowadays. Have you noticed how they portray the purveyors of their products as being so very decadent, living so seemingly luxurious lifestyles that only the wealthy could entertain any semblance to them? Advertising vacations in luxury ski resorts, or tropical islands; advertising automobiles that only the wealthy could ever afford. People dressed in expensive clothes and sporting accoutrements such as expensive jewelry, and these ads are being watched for the most part by folks who are having a hard time paying their bills. What’s up with these commercials? Are we proles supposed to be eating our hearts out or mortgaging our homes to purchase whatever luxurious products or experiences they are hawking?

The Bible warns us in several places about the threat to our souls from being (or wanting to be) rich and the media world today seems to be telling everyone to desire earthly treasure and luxury. Do not fall into that trap! [James 5:5]; “You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.” [Luke 6:24]: “But woe to you who are rich, For you have received your consolation.” Wealthy people are on a temporary visa – their ownership of wealth disappears when their hearts stop. Their fealty to Satan will no longer avail them once they leave this world. But they rarely stop to consider that. Most of them leastways. The part about the danger of being (or wishing to be) wealthy is just a time-proven tactic of Satan, but it’s being pressed in these end days, so when you hear those false preachers trying to conflate end time prophecy with “prosperity gospel”, just know they are simply and blindly trying to gain more wealth, oblivious to the ever increasing darkness around them.

Brothers and sisters who read these posts, please understand that this writer is dealing with the same problems you are going through, but trusting Jesus Christ as never before, and He’s showing us His faithfulness as never before. We are making our way through a very narrow gate – narrower than any of us realize, but if we stay faithful to Him, He will show us the way home. He wants us to make it, He’s willing to do anything it takes to help us. He’s even died for us, so never allow the enemy to make you feel like you’re alone, Jesus is always there, and He will be there to the end: [Matthew 28:20]: “…lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

The best place to find and study prophecy is in your Bible. The Spirit will interpret what of it you need to understand. There may be a lot more there than what you can digest, but the Lord knows what you need.

And watch out for those AI generated narratives with their fancy proper British-sounding inflections, accents and CGI video backgrounds – if you pay attention, you can even pick up on its limited vocabulary and redundant phraseology. I really don’t think computers have the capability to understand nor disseminate God’s Word, nor especially Bible prophecy. At the very least, only pay attention to known God-fearing people and preachers you trust.

Don’t be dismayed or afraid as we approach the end of this age. there are still yet some difficult times ahead. As you’ve seen before on these posts, if Satan ain’t giving you problems, you’re doing something wrong. Stay strong. Stay faithful. Do not fear the servants of Satan – refusing to fear them is key to defeating them, for they live off fear and trepidation. Be particularly careful of whom you listen to as concerns prophecy and God’s will for you. Trust Jesus Christ and Him only.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

Watching the Stars Fall and Destroy the Earth

Did a star fall from Heaven? If it did, when it hit the earth, did it leave tremendous destruction? Maybe the full effects of its impact have not yet been experienced. All of humanity could be on the precipice of death and destruction never before imagined; deep down many of us harbor an apprehension of such a possibility of scarcely conceivable destruction. From various sources, we have some idea of the coming events, at least for those who bother to look for them, indeed, most folks know there are some terrible things awaiting this old world. The predominant source for understanding of what will probably take place is of course, the Holy Bible. It speaks of a time of tribulation never before experienced by mankind.

Everyone has heard of the medieval times of blights such as the plague and the potato famine. We have all heard of great wars during which there was immense suffering and much death and destruction. Unfortunately, it looks like we are in for even worse times yet. When things come to a head in our modern world, there’s little doubt that some unimaginable wars will occur; there will be nuclear devastation on a scale never imagined leaving a world of horror. Nuclear war is awaiting – the pieces just have to be positioned; the right “leaders” put in place, and it will happen. With the caliber of leaders in the western world today, it’s just a matter of time. There’s mass insanity in the halls of power, and they aren’t even ashamed to put that madness on full display. [Ecclesiastes 10:13]: “The words of his mouth begin with foolishness, And the end of his talk is raving madness”. A wisdom deficit never before imagined in Washington DC, London, Paris, Berlin, etc. threatens the whole world – just as Satan intended.

What’s with the crazy leaders nowadays?

Some of our mad leaders have a nuclear trigger in their hands. That’s a scary thought when you consider the potential for destruction of nuclear power. God has known about nuclear physics since forever ago., in fact He created nuclear physics. That’s the energy that makes stars light up the heavens when you look up at night. Nuclear power. Stars. The Bible speaks of stars falling from the sky to the earth. From what scientists have determined about stars, they are, like the sun, immensely larger than the earth, so how would it be possible for the earth to experience stars falling upon us? Maybe when it says a star falls to the earth, its speaking metaphorically.

Perhaps the great star that fell to earth was a metaphor for when mankind learned how to harness nuclear energy – both for peaceful purposes, but more ominously, the intent of this “star” is to kill mass numbers of people. To destroy the earth that God created along with as many humans as possible. The threat of nuclear war is firmly entrenched now as the most fearsome nightmare of all of humanity. Nuclear technology marked a turning point in all of civilization, and the star hasn’t finished falling just yet. Nuclear waste keeps accumulating as we burn uranium rods in power reactors and really haven’t developed a way to safely dispose of the spent, but still highly radioactive waste. That’s a big problem and is getting bigger all the time, but it pales in comparison to the potential devastation that a nuclear war would leave. In any event, there was more than one star, and it looks like each one has his own contribution to the world’s destruction: When Satan got kicked out of Heaven, [Revelation 12:4]: “His [the dragon’s] tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth…”

The Bible also speaks of a time of great tribulation. [Matther 24:21]: “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.” Such a horrible existence for human beings as has never before occurred. One could easily envision this to be what may be left of humanity after such a horrible event as a nuclear apocalypse. The Palestinians in Gaza are undergoing such a horror today as the world watches. A world which doesn’t even seem to care, at least most of the governments – the entities that could actually do something to stop it, but it’s not happening. Why should this same world be spared the same deprivations that people like the Gazans, or the Christians in the Congo, Syrian Alawites and Christians, etc. are suffering? Yes, many folks in our world are suffering immensely, but those of us who a comparably much better off watch on and do nothing. Why should God show us mercy when it’s our turn? Why shouldn’t we all know what it’s like to be deprived of such things as we now take for granted, like a drink of clean water? Or even a piece of stale, moldy bread for an empty stomach which Netanyahu denies to the peasants of Gaza?

There are indeed many who are in the streets protesting against the inhumane treatment of the Gazans. Good on them, they are heroes in their own right. The heroic Houthis of Yemen and Lebanese Hezbollah fighters are doing what they can, but it’s a tall order against American jets and bombs. Now days, incredibly, instead of helping the suffering Palestinians, Trump is abrogating his Constitutional oath and imprisoning people for speaking out against the injustice in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. Why would a man so visible as an American president stoop to such pathetic malevolence? Like many others, I’m of the opinion that Israel has some dirt on him from the Epstein files, it’s the best explanation available for his mendacious support of genocide, especially in light of the fact that he is such a narcissistic personality, as such one who would be expected to want adoration from the masses, but his behavior is making everyone except wealthy Zionists hate him. What else could explain it? Other western countries are persecuting Palestine supporters too. How far did the Epstein activity go? Word has it that Epstein was a Mossad operative who lured western big shots into compromising sexual activity with minors and other things precisely to video and blackmail them and get the results we are seeing from our leaders.

It sure looks like the star that fell has many facets and traits. I’m of the opinion that a nuclear war will take out a lot of humanity. [Revelation8:10-11]:“Then the third angel sounded: And a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. 11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the water, because it was made bitter.

I did a post some time ago about what it might be like after a nuclear war. Maybe that’s an idea of what the tribulation holds for us. I think somewhere in that post I mentioned that the most fortunate people in a nuclear war will be the ones at ground zero. At least for them it’ll be over quickly.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

Over the River and Into the Woods of Despair

The sea is quite stormy and it’s getting harder all the time to avoid becoming disillusioned, but there’s comfort in looking about the ship to one’s fellow travelers. Not only because of the ones who smile once in a while but there’s also a lot to be gained by sharing a smile with others as well. We are constantly bombarded with bad news and distressed about situations in the world over which we have no control, but we have each other and it’s high time we start realizing it.

People in this world have a common enemy, but we seem to act like we need to be at odds with one another instead of trying to focus on how we can defend ourselves against him. There’s much to be gained by embracing our fellow travelers and doing whatever we can to help him/her on their struggles. It’s pretty obvious that the real enemy prefers – no he needs – us to do our best to offend, and be offended by our neighbors so we stay distracted from where our real problems come from.

Here’s an example, perhaps one of the best to consider nowadays. Every day the news cycles (the enemy’s messengers) are filled with fear of, and animosity towards those unfortunate folks illegally coming into this country. For crying out loud, how many of us have actually suffered real harm from the Hispanic immigrants? Get real and stop listening to the tropes about all of them being drug gangs and rapists, or whatever. Allow your Christian instincts to determine your attitude and stop allowing the mainstream narratives to dictate what you think and how you act.

Malachi 3:5: “And I will come near you for judgment; I will be a swift witness Against sorcerers, Against adulterers, Against perjurers, Against those who exploit wage earners and widows and orphans, and against those who turn away an alien— Because they do not fear Me,” Says the Lord of hosts.” I don’t know how He could have said it any plainer as to how we should deal with the impoverished folks who come to our land for a better life.

We should consider how we would feel if we were watching our children go without adequate food, clothes, education, etc., and knowing there’s a place across a river where we could provide a better life for the family. You bet, I’d go there against all odds. Our government made all the rules about how to legally assimilate, but how did our own ancestors regard such things back when they invaded this nation? Did they bother to learn the language or get green cards, or whatever other ungodly rules our government contrives nowadays?

The fact is, God owns this nation and all its constituency, and we are merely stewards of it. We seem to think we actually own it, but that’s an erroneous assumption. To prove our lack of ownership, just how many property “owners” do you know of who took their property with them when they passed on? If you can’t take it with you, it’s not yours. In reality, we are only travelers here on an extended stay that will someday be over. This earth is for our subsistence, but only while we are here, and in God’s eyes, we are supposed to share what He has given us stewardship over with our neighbors.

According to none other than Jesus Christ, it is our duty to our fellow human beings to treat them as we would like to be treated, and whether people are here “legally” according to some man-made rules or not. Sure, some of them might be bad people, but it’s wrong to arrest and deport all of them just because of our own failure to weed out the gangsters.

I’ve worked on construction jobs with Hispanic fellows, most of whom were probably here illegally. They work just as hard, if not harder, than most gringos, and they certainly appreciate a smile or other gesture of human decency as much as anyone else. When they are your friend, they are for real, and it’s been my experience that you don’t have to worry about what they say behind your back. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for many of my Caucasian acquaintances. I used to get very disgusted when the “ICE” buses pulled up to the site and those poor guys took off running in terror. It didn’t help with our projects either, to lose all that manpower all of a sudden.

Our real enemy keeps the fires of racism stoked in order to pull that card and turn decent people against each other and we must not forget that. Next time you find yourself getting stirred up over a news article that disparages immigrants, stop and think for a moment. Am I getting mad because of any real experience I have had with these people or is my reaction strictly because of this “news” report? Am I obeying the enemy’s desire to create conflict, or am I able to think my own thoughts?

If you are a white American, next time you encounter a Hispanic person, try giving them a smile and friendly greeting. You’ll be surprised at the reaction. First off, you’ll be surprised that you had it in you to do it. If that person doesn’t return your smile, that’s ok, there’s lots of people from any background that would act the same, so that’s no indictment of his disposition. Get over it, he’s probably in shock that a white stranger would act nice to him.

Our time here is getting short – Jesus will return soon. We have a lot of other pressing problems to worry about than hating on some poor immigrants who came here for a better life. We’re disobeying our Lord if we don’t at least try and empathize with less fortunate people, so put away that animosity – when Jesus gets back, He will sort this all out. I’m pretty sure I’d rather He see me as one who helped his fellow traveler.

If the authorities go after the gangsters and drug cartels, well, that’s what they should be doing, but not trying to deport people who are here to work and find a better life. Like I said – we have a lot more important things to worry about.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us – aliens and all.

Madness of Misdirection, MAGA, and Money

I feel sure they have something on Trump. Something in the Epstein files maybe, I don’t know, but it’s very odd that he’s gone way out of his way to perform insidious acts of evil and violence, acts which go against all of the things a megalomaniac would normally do to try and make people love him. Especially one whose desire is to be known as a peacemaker. That’s their high, after all, to be adored by the masses. He wants to go down in history as a great, no as the greatest of presidents, but he keeps doing things that absolutely will prevent his ever attaining anything close to that status.

He watches as the population of the US (all too slowly) come around to the realization that the US government he leads is so totally wrong in its approach to dealing with humanity that even the most stubborn Trumpers with their MAGA hats are actually beginning to take notice. Indeed, people who think of themselves as upright and moral Christians are experiencing the greatest cognitive dissonance imaginable trying to reconcile their support for Trump and his support for the slaughter of innocents (just like Biden) with their Christian beliefs. They are waking up, and not in a “woke” way, but in a Hind Rajab and Aaron Bushnell way. After trying to understand why someone like Josh Paul would give up a nice position at the State Department, or remaining bewildered over college students all over the country willing to go to jail for their humanitarian and/or moral convictions, some of the most hard-core Trumpists are seeming to allow the Almighty to speak to them. Are they actually starting to listen?

I think it was Mark Twain that said it’s much easier to fool a man than to convince him he has been fooled, and for sure there are a lot of MAGA types out there who are more willing to swear that Trump is a patriotic American rather than trust their eyes as to what he is doing. They have been, and are still being fooled, but rather than try and be objective about what’s going on in Gaza and Yemen, and in Occupied Palestine, they smugly insist that the orange one is looking out for America. Even though North Carolina still is reeling from that hurricane, even though much of the American southeast has been devastated by tornadoes and wildfires, even though there is not enough money to even begin to help the country, they still find tens of billions of dollars to send to Israel for weapons, healthcare, (yes, they have free healthcare in Israel) and whatever else is needed for a genocidal entity, largely funded by American taxpayers who pay through the nose for “health insurance” and medical care that could be funded by some of the wealth sent to Israel. That’s what happens when your congress is staffed by Zionists, many of whom are dual citizens. They make sure their real constituents, the Israelis, live fat while the Americans who they are supposed to represent, do without. For crying out loud, when I was in the AMERICAN military, we wouldn’t have had to worry about being arrested in foreign countries on vacation, we couldn’t afford such vacations, but the Israeli soldiers apparently travel abroad routinely. America first for our Zionists in congress is simply a campaign slogan that means absolutely nothing.

American college kids are leading the way for our nation, in spite of a government that is waging war on them. It’s not a new thing; we went through this during the Viet Nam days – we’ve seen it all before. The pols are pinning their hopes on the fact that many of the younger folks don’t remember those days. They’re dusting off the old playbook they used back then – it’s plainly happening – notice all the videos on social media about how white people have mistreated the blacks and vice-versa. This is an old card that has worked very well for them – once again get the whites and blacks fighting with each other and they’ll take their eyes off the real problem, the problem of a government of crooks willing to subvert its constitution to protect millionaire legislators, judges, and presidents by pitting the people against each other. Google the Watts riots, the end product of a perfect government setup. Are we willing to fall for it again? By now we should all, white, black, brown, etc., see this move for what it is. Our government is participating in one of the most heinous atrocities of our time, this middle east genocide, people are seeing it for what it is, and they have to get our attention off of it, and if it takes starting race riots or even a major war, so be it – they’re not willing to give up their fortunes or positions of power. If it looks like that is about to happen, they are willing to blow up the world rather than give it up. They’re going to once again wager on the ignorance of the masses first, though, and try to agitate the public against one another.

Back in the days of Viet Nam protests, there were a lot of young folks who turned to Jesus for His guidance and support. There were a lot of them – people called them Jesus freaks, and I admired them for their faith, although back then I was too young and easily misled to join their ranks, but there were a lot of us kids who simply protested. We had music, flowers, love and Jesus, and somehow that combination won the day as the popular movement against the war was so intense the US eventually had to turn tail and leave the Vietnamese to sort out their own problems, which they immediately and easily handled once Uncle Sam exited their country. If enough people get their priorities in order and understand that we have the power to stop a genocide, we can do it again. If a popular movement arises again, I’m too old to join in protests and get banged up by the mindless uniformed zombies who inevitably appear to disavow their oath to the constitution and protect rich Zionists against their own countrymen, but I will continually pray for our nation to return to its moral sensibilities and stop killing innocent people in the name of the Synagogue of Satan. I really can’t force myself to believe that most Americans want to be seen as supporters of the murder and starvation of children. If that’s the case, I don’t think there is much hope left for us as a country, nor frankly do we deserve any hope.

The Jesus part of this equation is the most important part, because His Kingdom transcends this earthly existence where rich people’s money is Satan’s offer to them and thus dictates that evil must occur. That’s what it’s about after all. The rich man’s money, and power – in complete obeisance to Satan. They haven’t been given (nor do they desire) the spiritual insight that this existence is so very temporary. They believe in nothing more than a bunch of money in the bank, a private jet in the hangar, a beach chair on some tropical island and giving orders to the world.

[Revelation 18:7]: “
In the measure that she (modern Babylon) glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.” They are in for a rude awakening – the torment and sorrow will be all too real – and it will be forever!

Keep praying – Jesus is able to make things right, and I don’t think it’s going to be long before we see Him appear in all His glory to do just that. Pray that you are on the right side when He returns.

Matther 25:31-46: “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world‘”. 

For sure, be on the right side. No Satanic child murderers will be found there.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

Tornadoes and Wildfires vs Debt to Rich People

Regarding my last post, and for those of my readers to whom I have conceded my “last” post, okay I’m recovering right now from a spiritual sledgehammer blow. Just as I thought the admonitions and encouragement from folkpotpourri were essentially useless, God sent extremely important messages, both in the form of weather destruction across broad swathes of Trump country, and in Hebrews chapter 3:14,14:“but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.  For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end”. Therefore, I follow this to enlighten and encourage you.

I’m not sure what to make of this, but in light of the stance of our orange-haired antichrist’s insane attacks on innocent Yemeni civilians in support of the Israeli genocide, there are dots to be connected here.

Netanyahu, the Israeli PM, in his continuing effort to stay out of corruption trouble by fomenting more war, has once again in a demonstration of some of the most heinous evil imaginable, closed off the Gaza crossings, essentially denying food, water, and any other life-sustaining necessities to those war-ravaged people. This includes women, children, and infants! Trump has launched attacks on the nation of Yemen in support of this evil. People, I don’t presume to speak for everyone, but supporting this unadulterated evil is NOT what the America I grew up in is about. We’re supposed to be the good guys! There are many who don’t think we are, and maybe they’re right and we’ve never been, but that’s still the image of this country I would like to believe in. And from the looks of things, I don’t think God is happy with us these days.

I don’t know how many readers are aware that one of Donald Trump’s top supporters in his campaign was one Zionist Miriam Adelson, widow of Zionist gambling magnate Sheldon Adelson, who Trump, in his last term referred to as his “king”. Now I don’t know about anyone whose king is likely burning in the fires of hell for among other things, making his fortune off an insidious human addiction, but part of his fortune left Trump in debt to the tune of a hundred million dollars to Miriam Adelson which is now being paid by American citizens. American ships are in the Red Sea launching attacks on a country that is bravely fighting Zionist genocide, and the wrath of God is completely apparent to the people of Missouri, Arkansas, and Mississippi who largely voted for this overly zealous monster that Zionists like Miriam Adelson installed in the White House. Now in return for your Trump vote, we are entering into a dark period of destruction and war so he can return her favor. For anyone willing to see, the dots align perfectly, even with similar death counts in Yemen and the southeastern US. The damages are alike too.

Missouri – get the picture?

For anyone who might think I’m some sort of liberal who hates Trump, I’m neither. I do not hate the guy, but I do hate what he’s doing. There are other instances of God’s retribution that don’t involve Trump – Southern California took a big hit recently, also an act of God’s vengeance, this time on a cesspit of immorality and decadence. Of course, everyone who got devastated there are not guilty of serving evil, but we are warned to get out from among those who are. Open your eyes, folks, God is getting active now, and His vengeance on those who commit or support the evil taking place in the world – and I’m speaking to those who choose to support or even overlook (like voting for and supporting the horror of this Trump presidency) the genocide of totally innocent human beings – is going to be a horror to undergo!

The terror of the wrath of the Almighty God and the Lamb will be upon all who support the immoral and evil operating in the world, [Revelation 6:15,16]: “And the kings of the earth, the great men, [j]the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!”  Do not think for one instant that your wealth (if you have any) will avail you at that terrible time.

There is a group of people who essentially own the wealth of the world. They actually believe they are entitled to rule the whole world and that every other people are beneath them. They have stolen all of almost every country’s wealth. When they tell Trump to jump, he does. He imagines himself to be some sort of ruler, but he is under the thumb of these people who literally hate Jesus Christ. He voluntarily does their bidding in order for them to allow him to sit in the White House.

The horribly misinformed country people of the “red states” actually believe this person is a patriotic American, maybe some think he is a Christian, but nothing could be further from the truth – just look at the devastation of the south right now. Who controls the elements?

The wealthy people who run America and own the congress might be on top of the world for now, but the day will soon be upon them when they will be among those scrambling to get in their holes and under the rocks, count on it. Do not be among the self-deceived people who follow or support any of them – especially the politicians and money lovers who occupy the congress.

Among the threats to our civilization are the possible impending eruptions of extremely dangerous volcanoes such as at Campi Flegri. This would swiftly bring the wrath of God down on the entire world, but especially on the middle east. It would be a devastating event that would undoubtedly result in millions of deaths around the world, but the Bible prophesies such cataclysmic events. At least no warplanes could fly in the volcanic ash, so there’s that.

When you see the nation beginning to crumble, especially when it is being assailed by “natural” events like wildfires, weather and earthquakes, you might want to put on your thinking hat for a change and understand why it’s happening. Look at the evil this government is committing (with the support of many of the people) in fealty to an antichristian nation and at least you won’t need to wonder why God is taking vengeance on us.

Get right with Jesus Christ while there is time. Remember that it’s okay to be an enemy of evil, in fact it’s our responsibility, and in the end, you’ll be eternally grateful you were.

Or just keep listening to false prophets like John Hagee and waving your Trump (or any evil politician) flag in your yard and looking the other way.

Just some thoughts while folkpotpourri is still operating…

May the blessing of the Almighty God find and keep us.

The Great Spiritual Inheritance

There’s a thing in my closet, and to tell the truth, I’m usually at odds with myself on the best way to deal with it. I certainly can’t get rid of it, nor do I wish to. It was passed down to me by my dad, and he told me he got it from his dad and his dad from his grandpa, and so forth from many generations ago. It’s not really anything very impressive, maybe just a thing made out of some kind of unknown material, but if it’s as old as I’ve been told it is, I’m pretty sure they didn’t have man-made materials that can do what this thing does that long ago, so it’s anyone’s guess. Whatever it is, it has held up well over the years. In fact, if I didn’t know better, I’d swear it gets in better and better shape as the years pass. Old stories have been passed down of years gone by during which the object got twisted around and distorted, but it always seemed to get back to its original shape, especially when the owners really studied it and wielded it, and tried to learn as much about it as they could.

Dad told me this thing is of utmost importance and to take care of it with my life. Each of my forebears was told the same thing by their fathers, and that although we only have a relatively miniscule understanding of the significance of it, and may not see what it portends in our lifetimes, there will come a time when its true value will be revealed, and we should hope that we are the ones alive and in proper care of it when that happens.

I’ve talked to people about this thing, the care of which I am currently entrusted, and doing so has taught me that there are folks who listen to the tale of this thing, but most think I’m some kind of nut and change the subject when I mention it. For some reason I’m still compelled to tell people about it, and when someone actually listens and hears the story of it, I seem to get a lift and so the listeners, I don’t know why, but it’s as if I’m obligated to inform people about it.

When the story of this thing began, as has been passed down through the years, there was some kind of itinerant preacher who came to some villages in another part of the world and spent some time there speaking to anyone who would listen about another life that folks would arrive at when this one is over. He wasn’t a wealthy man, a fact which didn’t allow him much regard form the better-off townsfolk, so most of that kind of people didn’t pay him much attention. There were some, though, who came to him and listened attentively as he spoke words of profound wisdom – those who listened to him received a gift of being able to perceive his messages to be of ageless importance, they all seemed to feel blessed when he spoke, and no one could explain or understand why.

Throughout my life I have pondered the stories about this fellow and have been amazed that the people I try to talk to about this thing have the very same reactions to the stories as those guys back when he spoke to them. Some want to hear more but most others turn away. Anyways, the story goes that a select few men were chosen (by him) to hear him out and learn of his message. He gave instructions such as how they should behave towards each other, but outside his group not very many seemed to want to hear that part of his message – they certainly didn’t take it to heart, and to this day they still haven’t. He also told them how to care for this thing he left behind, this thing of which I find myself in possession.

He left the object of which in my time I have been entrusted with very specific instructions as to how to care for it, in fact it was his own idea that whoever would be in possession of it was obligated, as part of his or her stewardship, to tell as many folks as were willing to listen about the thing. Even though it’s an old story shrouded in the supernatural, I believe it with all my heart and that is why I feel compelled to speak out about this object of which I have come to know is of special magnificence, this thing of which I speak. I often wonder though if the guy who left it in the first place already knew I would end up with it in my lifetime thousands of years later, but then deep in my heart I realize that of course he did. He spoke words long ago most of which I fully understand today. He must have been the greatest of prophets.

My dad also told me that there are others – and have been through the ages – who rightfully lay claim to this same object – they have it too and keep it in their own personal places, and the ones who can legitimately claim it are under the exact same obligation to tell people about it. Don’t ask me how several people can be able to claim the same thing, but I’m sure this thing transcends any physical constraints of which humankind is aware. Somehow, I understand that the others who own it are not only co-owners of the same inheritance but are also beloved brethren and instead of being jealous or envious of someone else claiming something that I know is rightfully mine, the original fellow who left us this thing taught his followers to help each other to share it boundlessly and heartfully support its equal ownership by their brethren.

There’s an interesting thing about this object of which I speak, and this is perhaps the biggest reason there are so many detractors of the truth of it – it’s invisible – to know it’s real you have to believe it exists, but you can feel it if you try to hear and learn about it. One can hear it with the heart, so to speak, but not everyone can – only those who are willing to stop their worldly pursuits long enough to listen. It’s like someone knocking at your door, you hear the rapping, but unless you open the door you never have to admit anyone was there, much less listen to what he might have had to say. Now even though you can argue that no one was there and there was no message delivered, you can’t honestly argue that you didn’t hear the knocking.

The closet I mentioned earlier is actually the vault of my own heart, and there are many things in there – some if not most of which I really, really need to get rid of, but I’m afraid I’m stricken with the remembrance of them, at least until that time comes. But even though its invisible to the human eye, the valuable object is in a prominent place there. A valuable lesson I’ve learned is that the more time I spend studying and meditating on that blessed thing, the less time I spend regretting the bad things – things that someday will be gone forever. Which brings this story around to the object again, if you can really call it an object – I don’t think there are words in the languages of men to do it justice. The story that has been passed down also relates to that time I mentioned earlier when the one who left the object said he’d return. I believe He will return; He will want to see His blessed object on earth and how well I (we) have cared for it. He will already know how or if we listened to the part of His message about caring for each other, and at that time we will realize just how well He knows. If things stay the way they are going there will be plenty of rubble and debris around to testify as to how mankind listened.

He spoke of a wonderful reward for those who shared the object with their neighbors, He spoke of the new life to come, and of the joy and wonder of a place we have yet to see, in which the owners of His beloved gift who nurtured it will spend in eternal paradise.

If you enjoyed this, by all means share it with someone, by doing so you will show your desire to assume your share of ownership of our inheritance.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

Hatred of Genocide Ain’t a New Thing

Could it be that as our world disintegrates before our eyes that we are being presented with a challenge that will determine our future, a test of sorts that very simply defines who we are, or who we’d like to be? Is it a test of our faith to see if we can resist the hatred born of witnessing evil? If you are an American living in the 21st century, you’ve learned about the American Indians who were the proprietors of the home of the brave, back then they were even called braves. Though I’m just an old Ozark hillbilly living as a simple redneck, I have a profound respect for those folks, and a profound regret for what our forebears did to them.

Now that we’re seeing first-hand what colonialism, genocide, and extreme racial prejudice looks like in our day, we should remember that our ancestors were as guilty of this barbarism as what we witness today. This same mindset has been prominent throughout history as empires came and went. People are being slaughtered without mercy – that doesn’t make it right by any stretch, but it has happened countless times through history, and you’d think we would’ve advanced beyond this inhumane behavior, but alas, I guess we haven’t. If anything has changed at all, we’ve developed more depraved ways to torture and kill. This genocide we are watching today isn’t something new, it’s just happening in our lifetime, indeed before our eyes.

Most human beings aren’t totally heartless, so it stands to reason that at least some of us are shocked to see such barbarism and destruction as we see in Gaza and Lebanon. It’s difficult to imagine our esteemed American ancestors visiting this level of malevolence on the Indians, but they did, they just didn’t use 2,000-pound bombs. In fact, the genocide being perpetrated on the Palestinians is exactly the same, and for the same reasons – the invaders wanted the land, and they weren’t willing to share it – the invaders had to have it all. They also were convinced they were of a superior race. They were willing to stoop to whatever level of depravity necessary (and unnecessary) to get the land, too. That’s where the revelation of whom they serve becomes obvious, for Satan takes great delight in seeing the viciousness of which his servants become capable under his tutelage.

The only possible remediation to the evil of colonialism is to stop it – shut it down. We can’t go back and undo what has been done, there’s just too much water gone under the bridge for that, but we could take time out from whatever manifestation of evil we find ourselves involved in (or against) and try to peacefully resolve our issues. There have been several international “agreements” that were passed to address and prevent one sovereign nation from stealing property from another sovereign nation, but when a government has the power and the opportunity to “seize” assets of another country or another people, they always avail themselves – mankind cannot help himself and history has proven this. Satan, always through fiduciary malfeasance, has bestowed this power upon those who choose to serve him, and resolving problems using peaceful means is never his strategy.

When Satan took Jesus up on the pinnacle where He could see the whole world, the devil offered Him control over the kingdoms of the world – power and riches beyond imagination, Jesus denied him, because He would have to worship Satan to receive it. Few men have denied this generous offer, it’s the very reason there are such wealthy people in the world – they took the devil up on his offer. As part of the bargain, they play a big part in the evils going on in the world, including the support of genocide. Wealthy Zionists work feverishly behind the scenes to shut down protests against genocide on American college campuses, they us the evil AIPAC political lobby to try and get legislation passed to illegalize speech they don’t like and foment diverse attacks on the US constitution.

Only a few years ago when someone spoke of evil men taking over the world, they were made the objects of ridicule, and this was part of the plan. Such grandiose malfeasance as world domination was so unimaginable, people who spoke of it were made out to be fanatical conspiracy theorists, at least until sufficient power could be accumulated for this exact objective to be realized, because when enough power ($=power) could be amassed, it would no longer be necessary to heap scorn upon those who try to warn the masses, they can do their dirty work right out in the open with no fear of popular uprisings against them, or so they think. Sadly, the vast majority of people are perfectly willing to voluntarily extend their hands for the shackles with which they will be enslaved. Few dare to risk being radical enough to publicly speak against the evil they are seeing. In fact, such free speech is becoming illegal in more and more places, constitutions be damned.

I’ve written about this before, but it’s important to stay mindful of the treachery of Satan. He knows full well that the rich guys who currently serve him only have a limited time to operate. Sooner or later even the slowest of John Q Public will realize what is going on and eventually the pitchforks will appear. This is when Satan will produce a premeditated army of implacably angry proles who have once again learned how the wealthy – including government leaders – have dealt so treacherously with them and one of the biggest, yet unexpected objectives of his strategy will come to fruition. Common people will have hatred in their hearts for the aristocracy (see French Revolution) and otherwise normal people will think it’s justifiable to commit offenses against the covenant of Jesus Christ, acting out of abhorrence for those who tried to enslave them. You see, Satan doesn’t in the least mind turning on his servants, in this case the ones he provided with wealth and power, in order to gain the multitudes’ subservience. There are many more souls to be had among the proletariat than those of the few wealthy ones, and for him it’s a numbers game, after all. He also harbors a special hatred for Jesus and those who choose to follow Him. He has no power to harm the Lord, but he has several ways to try and defeat Jesus’ followers. One of his proven methods is to instill such frustration into the hearts of good men that they allow anger to fester into hatred. When people rise up and begin to take vengeance, they become his Satan’s new trusted servants, so he wins souls either way. Do you really think the internet would be available to conspiracy freaks to point out the evil elites if this were not the case? People can use alternative media to say things that stir up the mob, because anger, frustration and hatred are all in his toolbox. For now, we Christians can use the net to warn others, but that is rapidly changing, due to content censorship. If you doubt the effectiveness of this sewing of hatred, just read the comments of most popular blogs.

There’s a lot of back and forth going on in social media about all of the dastardly atrocities that are happening, and there are indeed some hideously evil things taking place, but the revelations of these things is only part of the plan. Populations worldwide are hearing of these developments – the elites and the governments they control can no longer keep a lid on them – so a seething rage is building, as I said, it’s part of Satan’s plan. At some point folks will get enough and the house of cards that Satan dealt the “elites” will come down, but if common people aren’t careful, they will become the new servants, and this because of the desire for vengeance. This is also a very effective weapon of the devil, and Christians must beware of it. God said He’d take care of the payback part of all this, and we must trust that He will. Do not give in to the desire to see those bad guys hanging on lamp posts, because when you do that, the same enemy wins. Also be aware that the plans of the “elites” and Satan’s plans don’t always coincide, so when you see and hear voices talking about the evil “elites”, keep your guard up – even if what they are saying sounds true, the devil might be coming at you from a different direction.

Wealthy people are too caught up in decadent lifestyles and the ego-stroking echo chambers around them to realize what’s building. They completely leave God and His warnings out of their plans, to their utter damnation. God will, in His time, deal with those who persecute the innocent, especially His own servants, and we, as believers in Jesus Christ, must be vigilant to remember this and not take (or promote) our own vengeance. Stay above the fray, keep the narrow gate in sight; pray for the very ones you know work for the enemy, so that you can be like our Father who makes the rain fall on good people and evil ones as well.

There have been genocides, ethnic cleansing, and other malevolent persecutions of human beings through all of history – the one we see today is nothing new. As human beings, of course we can do better than this, but for right now we have to recognize and keep in mind Satan’s purpose – he can and has caused people to kill each other for time immemorial, but in this age of instantaneous information, for the first time he has a tool with which he is capable of corrupting the hearts of multitudes more humans more quickly than ever. He has the opportunity to foment hatred in the hearts of everyday people with a lust for vengeance. Just take time to think it through and you’ll be able to avoid this snare he has set for believers. In the secular world, things happen for a reason and don’t think for a second that Satan would be reluctant to throw his wealthy servants under the bus in order to defeat servants of Jesus Christ.

Please be aware that the people in most megachurches led by millionaire pastors are not faced with this threat – Satan already has them where he wants them, so don’t expect them to worry about or succumb to hatred of those who engage in genocide. In fact, most of them actually support it. No, this is a special trap set to try and capture the minds of true believers, those who follow Christ but still might be susceptible due to their repugnance of genocide to the extent that it might spawn hatred in their hearts. If you fall into this category of Christians, be honored that the enemy has a special strategy just for us, recognize it and do not fall for it. Pray for them. Pray for the wisdom to recognize this and all other snares of the enemy.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

Beyond the Intensity of the Great Conflict

As we watch the wars around the world, we could overlook the big one that is coming. This one will involve all believers in Jesus Christ and one day soon it will be over. Meanwhile, we will be expected to voluntarily walk into the greatest battle humanity has ever faced and fight with our heart and soul. We will have no fighter aircraft nor mortars – not even a rifle with which to repel the enemy that will be upon us, but we will still have a great advantage over him. We will also have a song in our collective heart that will announce the absolute victory we will have attained. The song is:

“Great and marvelous are your works, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, O’ king of the saints. Who shall not fear you, O’ Lord, and glorify Yor name? For you alone are Holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You. For Your judgements have been manifested.”

Image result for free pics of jesus carrying the cross

When we are assailed by our enemy, when our chances of survival seem to grow dim as the darkness besets us, this song of praise to our King will lift our spirit. This is the song of victory of the saints who are faithful to the end – the song that will be voiced by those who overcome the mark of the beast and refuse to worship him. The Bible doesn’t tell us how many saints will be around to sing this song, but I expect that among the hordes of people who emerge from the battle, comparatively few will be able to give voice to this wonderful song of victory. If I were the reader here, I would make it a point to memorize it so you will be able to join the chorus at the appointed time. Be a voice.

Our faith in Jesus is the greatest weapon we will have at our disposal to wield against the very powerful enemy we will be required to fight, but no matter how dreadful he may appear, we must refuse to be intimidated; we must never surrender. All we have ever understood to be good, to be righteous in the course of the ages, will be on the line. There will come a time when we must even go against our human instinct and realize something more important than even our earthly lives will be at risk during this spiritual battle and it’s imperative that we get a prior understanding of that before we determine to join the fray. You see, the realization is the important part, for our eternal soul is indeed at stake, we just have to get to the point where we acknowledge that and fight accordingly. Also, and very importantly we are able to disarm the enemy when our fear is no longer in play for perfect love casts out fear. [1 John 4:18]: “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.” We have to double down on our faith and pray for God’s love, there’s no other option.

I like to imagine that day when we look around us at the smoldering ruin that was our world, sweat and blood dripping from this earthly shell as God wrests our spirit away, when we are able to clearly shout and sing hallelujahs and praise to our King Who brought us through the great war to a victory of which the very angels of Heaven will have witnessed. I believe those angels will be singing along with us with voices of such beauty that we could have never imagined and as Jesus our Lord walks up to His soldiers one by one and welcomes us into His unfathomably magnificent Heavenly Kingdom which appears beyond that river – the great river we at one time feared to cross. The power of His love will be revealed, and we will be able to feel it with senses we don’t have now, but to say it’s going to be a marvelous experience is a huge understatement, but then, we don’t have words in any human language to describe such Heavenly splendor. No words at all.

God is eternal, so before He created human beings, He and Heaven had been around from time immemorial, and after we are gone to our eternal abode, He and Heaven will be around forever, but maybe there will be songs and stories of mankind’s great struggle – and Jesus shepherding us to our victory – in Heaven forever – but who knows?

We indeed must resolve to fight this battle to the end as loyal soldiers, always looking to victory. When you begin to understand how it must be fought you will be amazed at the weapons we have at our disposal. Our enemy has no access to our arsenal. All who decided not to fight – those who rejected Jesus – will look on with helpless and agonizing envy when they see our jubilation and joy! Now it’s on you to find Jesus and get to know Him. He’s not that far away.

If you plan to join this amazing celebration, just in case there are no lyric sheets around, you should probably memorize the song – it’s in Revelation 15:3,4.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.

The Real War – Between Wealth and Faith

Image result for free pics of jesus as poor man

It would be easier to just turn and walk away. I have to confess, the temptation is there. I often feel like a fool for trying to get folks to at least look into opening their Bibles and take that decision to finally address their problems, indeed the problems of their world, through the eyes of one who believes in Jesus Christ. He very plainly tells us that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. [John 14:6] No matter how cross-threaded one is, it’s hard to misinterpret what He is saying in that statement – especially the Way part. If you’re looking for a way to deal with – not the problems of the world, they’ll only be solved when He comes back – but how those problems are affecting you right now, Jesus is the Way and there is no other. Believe me, I’ve been as frustrated as anybody. Like most folks, I wish there was some magic wand someone could wave and fix this mess we’re in, but that option isn’t available. I wish people would stop expecting some politician to step up and get us going in a better direction, but that’s not going to happen. There will indeed be one, who will appear at first to solve our problems, but he will be the very one we must avoid.

Donald Trump is once again in a position where he might try to solve the world’s problems – if that was his intent. But as before, without Jesus Christ’s guidance, he won’t be successful. I don’t care how sold you are on him, he is just another rich man out to get richer, and that’s the bottom line. Look at all the billionaires in his administration. I’m not saying he’s the antiChrist, but he seems to be auditioning for the role.

There are statues of him everywhere

For their entire lives on this earth. these people have never known what it’s like to worry about their lights being turned off for the lack of money to pay their electric bills. For Pete’s sake if Trump was really trying to help with the country’s serious problems, don’t you think he’d be hiring people with some semblance of ability to tackle homelessness. Our cities are in shambles. America definitely needs to be great (again?), and no amount of fealty to Benjamin Netanyahu is going to fix that. Trump’s been in office almost a month now, and the only moves he has made thus far is to prostrate himself to wealthy Zionists, even moreso than Joe Biden did, and that’s a low bar. His obeisance to Netanyahu was particularly disappointing for Americans -particularly those who wanted to see him as a courageous leader – to have to watch.

The fake $100 bills in this pic have “In Trump We Trust” on his goat statue in Mara Lago.

Donald Trump, in his quest to appear wealthy, smart, and successful, continues to thoroughly embarrass America, both at home and especially in all foreign countries, he’s shaming America. That’s a real pathetic issue for sure, but there are several pressing ones. There’s a perfectly reasonable explanation for them all. Our nation has almost completely abandoned God – that’s the root cause of our problems!

Personally, I don’t believe we should accept the insult to God that printing “In God We Trust” on money in the first place. The idolatrous love for money is the root of all evil and the one thing the Bible warns us about more than anything else, but to substitute Trump for God even in this out-of-place phrase is openly proclaiming Trump to be equal with God – the original sin of Satan. This is blatant idolatry, goat and all.

I live in an area of the country where houses still proudly wave Trump campaign flags. One day when the evil of his administration is manifested, they may out of conscience opt to take them down, but God is taking pictures of those yards to remind folks (in case they haven’t repented) at the judgement that they supported this fellow. Of course, the democrats are as bad or worse, but opposing one evil group by supporting another one will be no excuse.

Do you really want to put yourself in the position to have explain to the Lord why you had something like this in your yard?

So here we are, most people at a loss for what to do, how to deal with this tsunami of evil overtaking the world, and so few of us have come to the realization that mankind doesn’t have the power within us to emerge victorious from it. At some point in the near future, a Savior will indeed appear, and He will decisively and forever defeat the enemy, but when that happens, it’ll be too late to get off the fence. [Revelation 16:15] “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.” [16;18,19]: “And there were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth. 19 Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.” A horrific moment for all who have rejected the Son of God. I think America fits the description of the great Babylon here, don’t you?

The opportunity for individuals to win this battle is slipping away, and no amount of fealty to wealthy people will help in the end. Jesus is the only Way, we need to start looking at our situation from a new perspective, one in which we are able to see that there is another existence, for only by understanding there is a better life ahead will we able to comprehend and elude the evil that is upon us. Too many of us reject the very faith that is able to save us, and it’s the only path to victory – those who turn to wealth, or even the desire of it, will be in for a horrible time.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us.
