Called, chosen, and faithful. When Christ finally drops the hammer on His enemies, He will be accompanied by His army of followers who will be called, chosen, and faithful. [Revelation 17:14] – They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.”
This is where we fit in, fellow believers. Remember, my beloved brothers and sisters who follow these posts in Malaysia, in Kenya, Myanmar, Mexico – all of you from the far reaches of the world and regardless of any former belief system you have held, you who seek to discover your place in the grand scheme in which Jesus Christ will be the Sovereign – this is how we get where we need to go. Isaiah 41:9 – [Isaiah 41:9] I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, ‘You are my servant’; I have chosen you and have not rejected you. Therefore, we are called by the Lord to come into His Kingdom. Yes, we have a standing invitation from the Lord Jesus Christ Himself – a calling – which we must not ignore! If we do not give our utmost attention to properly answering this call, we risk the most horrific eventuality that can come upon our souls, which is the dreaded fate of not being chosen for His mighty army.
When we take His invitation lightly, and are careless in our response, we become bound to a horrific and eternal fate. One fellow was observed at a reception who was not properly prepared to be attending, and this was his lot: [Matthew 22:13,14] “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ “For many are invited [called], but few are chosen.”
To be called, and chosen, are great honors bestowed upon us by the Lord Jesus, but the faithful part is all on us. Are we being faithful to the calling to which He beckons us? Are we being faithful to Him? In the big picture, nothing else matters at all. It doesn’t matter if our designated existence in this life requires us to be a woodsman in Bavaria or a rickshaw operated in Mumbai, a hairdresser in some New York salon, or maybe even an old hillbilly blogger in the Ozarks, our number one objective in this life should be to do whatever we can to please our God, our Creator. For by doing so, once He calls and chooses us, we satisfy that “faithful” part of called, chosen, and faithful.
Today is a blessed, rainy day here in the Ozarks. We’ve had hardly any rain for about six weeks or so, and things were getting dry enough around here that everyone was starting to worry about fires, but maybe that fear is allayed for the time being. One of my biggest fears, though, is looking at the state of the world we’re living in and realizing how many people are living with their attention turned to world events and away from the God to Whom we need to bring our cares for His consolation. As the golden hickory leaves become rain-sogged and drop to the ochre ground, so our fellow humans fall to the merciless swords of war, plagues, and all sorts of evil, souls bound for lesser places because they do not answer the call. For how can we be chosen if we do not answer the call?
[Revelation 3:20] – Behold, Istandatthedoor and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opensthe door, Iwill come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. It’s a standing invitation, all you have to do is open the door for Him and He’ll take care of the rest.
Sometimes I find myself battling against frustration over the things that are going on in the world today and I know I’m not alone. There is comfort to be had, though it might not be where we think, where we look. How can a person look at the horrible pictures of butchered children, young children intentionally injured and/or killed? Is this what humanity has become? My own answer to this is a resounding NO! At least for the humanity of humans, this is not who we are, nor who we were created to be, and we do not have to accept any presumption that we are part of the evil we see but cannot stop.
Of course, frustration ensues when we have to witness our whole existence turned upside down. The human psyche was not designed to accommodate this level of evil. Witness the soldiers who take part in it, coming home to live in drug abuse or even suicide! It’s too much for anyone with a shred of conscience to endure, but of course they don’t think about lying awake at night listening to the screams of toddlers being massacred, of mothers begging for their lives to be spared while they’re busy impressing their buddies with their ruthlessness. God did not create people to act like this, and many of the actors who play the roles of butchers of innocent human beings pay a steep price even before this life is over, but surely and forever in the next.
As I’ve written before, and shall continue to remind people of conscience, there will be a reckoning for all of this. The Almighty God sees every detail of what’s going on, and every drop of innocent blood is duly noted for the judgement of those who shed it. There is not, nor can there ever be, any justification or rationalization for the inhumanity of killing innocent people – especially children. I know our ancestors here in America were guilty of the same behavior towards the Indians, and I’d like to think I’d be of the same mind about their treatment as I am about the Palestinians and Lebanese today. In fact, I know I would – I don’t think that as a Christian, a true follower of the Covenant of Jesus Christ, anyone could believe otherwise, murdering innocent people is wrong! it’s a horror wrought by Satan himself, and people who commit such barbarism are undoubtedly possessed by the evilest of demons from the bottomless pit. But therein lies the rub – if we allow ourselves to be overcome by hatred and the desire for vengeance, the same enemy wins against us as the one who is in charge of the atrocities being committed.
Frustration at the evil we witness in the world can overcome even the staunchest of believers, so it is imperative that we trust in God who has the power to – and undoubtedly will – bring justice upon the perpetrators. Satan uses this very frustration to serve his purpose – especially against believers – for many are sure to be overcome by hatred. We must not let this happen – the very evil we abhor is a powerful and multifaceted weapon – that hatred, because it ultimately has the same effect on our spirit as the evil itself. No matter how horrific their behavior, we must bear in mind that they are still human beings, even though for the duration of their barbarity they are under the control of Satan.
Jesus warns us of that very danger when He admonishes us to love our enemies, because even the vilest of people can turn away from their evil and repent, and if God can forgive them, then we must be able to do the same. No other religion outside of true Christianity teaches this level of forgiveness and even compassion for one’s enemies and this is one of the end products of Christ’s love for all people. He gives everyone every chance to come into His kingdom, and He sees both the evil of those who slaughter innocents, AND those of us who have allowed hatred to get the better of them, an act of submission to the same devil. He said the Father makes His rain fall on both the good and the wicked, and if we’d like to be in the same mindset as Him, we must learn to love our enemies. Love is the key to being a faithful servant of Jesus, and it is disturbing to hear public speakers from politicians to (even “Christian”) preachers advocating war and violence spurred on by the very hatred they should be condemning.
The Bible says in more than one place that God is love. If we could begin to fathom the depths of His love, we’d certainly have a better understanding – and appreciation – of Him. He is merciful beyond anything we could ever imagine, and when we would like to get close to Him, we must always remember to call on Jesus – no one can serve the Father who rejects the Son. That’s important to know, especially when you take into consideration that Jesus died on the cross of His own free will, so that we could be saved from the damnation of this world and that lake of eternal fire that ultimately awaits all who reject Him. This is as real as it gets, folks. The end is getting close, get to know Jesus and be prepared for what’s coming upon us. You’ll be eternally glad you did.
And don’t ever let the stranger cause you to hate people.
Pervasive helplessness – that seems to be what’s going on. We see injustice, evil in high places, yet we feel powerless to do anything about it. We watch leaders of nations speak out against the unspeakable atrocities of Gaza and now Lebanon and do nothing to stop it. Maybe one more sternly worded letter or one more denunciation of the IOF for bombing hospitals will serve to stop it.
Erdogan of Turkey keeps speaking out against genocide, so does Egypt’s Sisi, and Abdullah of Jordan, but when it comes down to actually doing something, anything, to help, well we just hear a bunch of empty words. The Middle East desperately needs a hero, but alas, none are to be found outside Yemen, Lebanon, and Iran. I guess Erdogan will just live in his Walter Mittyesque daydream of being the heroic sultan of an imagined new Ottoman Empire, though not lifting a finger to help those over whom he would reign.
The Zionist occupation entity has scored a lot of success lately. At least it seems like they think turning the entire world against them with their practice of mass murder is strategic success. I remember some of the WWII propaganda that was still around when I was a kid – we were still immersed in it even in the fifties and sixties. One of the things that stood out about the Nazis, in particular the SS, was one of their founding principles for membership and it went something like this: If a man cannot put a gun to the head of a young child and without mercy kill him/her, then there’s no place in the SS for him. When this was circulating back in the day, we all thought, as any human being would, that this was one of the most atrocious things we had ever heard of. That tidbit alone turned a big part of the world against the Nazis, yet we see the exact same attitudes happening in occupied Palestine with the habit of the IOF soldiers these days of killing Arab children with head shots and laughing about it. What’s the difference? When the Nazis did it, it was total horror, but when the IOF does it, it’s Israel exercising their right to “self defense”.
There’s no doubt some horrific behavior happening, but we’re not totally helpless. We have at our disposal one thing which will ultimately turn the tide of this atrocity, and it is prayer. God hears our prayers, and He will take vengeance on the perpetrators of this murder of innocents when He decides the time is right. Don’t waste your time writing letters to congressmen, they are bought-and-paid for servants of an evil regime and will do nothing to stop even the overt murder of children. Jesus Christ said it would be better for someone to have a millstone tied around their neck and thrown into the ocean than for them to face the wrath of God for harming the little children, so they have theirs coming. That will surely apply to those who support this evil from the safety of their dens of iniquities in the Rayburn and Russell buildings and the white house, et. al.
No, we must take our petitions to the Almighty God at His throne where our prayers fill the heavenly censers. Above all, we must tell Him we are not a part of this evil and we do not support it, even if we live in the country where the evil comes from. The serpents who purport to run this country are doing so because there’s a lot of money to be made in the service of Satan. That, or their name might just be in a certain little Epstein book. Either way, what they are doing is treason of the highest order against America and against God. Now, I do not for one second believe that they are working against God as a result of treason to America, for I do not think God holds America any higher than He does Somalia or Greenland. He is not a respecter of persons. No, the serpents in Washington just happen to be enemies of America in addition to being enemies of God. They will answer to God in due time.
When we pray for the children of Gaza, for the innocent people who are defenseless to the onslaught of powerful bombs being dropped on their homes, we are showing our compassion for the helpless. Just because He doesn’t act according to the timetable we desire – like right now – doesn’t mean he is ignoring the situation; He most certainly is not. God has an infallible plan, one which is not restricted nor constrained to the limitations or time constraints of this world. He knows of another life, another realm, one in which those children who have been martyred in Gaza and taken out of this world, now are in the care and indescribable comfort of the Lord Jesus Christ and the angels of Heaven. We who are left here shall miss them, but we must keep in mind that they are in good hands now, never to be afraid again.
The pilots who drop those bombs on innocent civilians, as well as the snipers who murder the women and children will face a special place in hell. These are the most cowardly of all – the drone operators who slaughter people as though they are playing video games will especially answer for their atrocities. All the people up the chains of command including to the pentagon and the white house will answer to God for their support and participation. There is no justification or excuse for this evil being perpetrated on defenseless children. This includes intentional starvation and those who shut off the water.
Take whatever comfort you may: [Isaiah 41:17, 18]
“The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, Their tongues fail for thirst. I, the Lord, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. 18 I will open rivers in desolate heights, And fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, And the dry land springs of water.
God is watching. He’s watching the perpetrators of the evil of Gaza and all who support it. Bot don’t forget – He’s watching you too. How will you react to these days of iniquity? Pray without ceasing.
Rejection. Wow – what a desolate feeling! It’s probably the most damaging blow to human pride of all the many depredations we can experience. Rejection affects different people in different ways, some people deal with rejection by doubling down, working harder, and sometimes this is the correct response, others simply cannot endure it and turn to drugs or booze, and some even take the permanent way out, but most of us learn somehow to cope and thus become able to endure the damage to our psyches. It can have a marked influence on our lives though.
There are examples before us to learn how people have dealt with rejection, such as when a young Adolph Hitler was turned down by the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. He was an aspiring young artist and had submitted some of his work for consideration, but the acceptance committee didn’t think he had what it took. Needless to say, he didn’t take it so well, but what if? What if he had been accepted – he was a pretty good artist, and who knows how good he might have turned out to be? Could you imagine walking into an art exhibit with expensive Hitlers for auction? How the history books would be different today! But he was rejected, and that very rejection could have well been the seed of all the death and destruction of WWII.
Consider that beautiful girl back in high school that you would have treated like a princess if only she would have responded to your advances. What a bummer to see her hooked up with some nerd from the debating team who obviously could have never given her half the affection you were prepared to lavish upon her. The fact that they eventually married and had half a dozen kids and stayed together for scores of years notwithstanding, she would have been much better off with you – right?
Rejection takes many forms and none of them are in any way desirable, at least for the time being, but sometimes if we look at things from a different viewpoint, we might see that we’re better off for the way things turned out, even if we had to spend some time buffing out the dings to our pride to get over it. Think about famous people. There’s that human envy in which we often find ourselves immersed that says we’d like to be able to sing like Elvis before adulating mobs in great auditoriums, and it does seem like it’d be quite the trip, but maybe God gave us the voice we have precisely so that we wouldn’t ever get rich or famous because He had other plans for us. Maybe the less than perfect eyesight that prevented us from becoming a fighter pilot was bestowed on us so that we’d never have to give an account of ourselves for mass-murdering innocent people during some “war”.
When I walk out in the woods in the fall and immerse myself in the breathtaking beauty of autumn – an exercise in which I delight more than anything else – I sometimes wonder where else I might have ended up if I had been “successful” in some of my early endeavors. If I had become a famous artist, would I be somewhere I could walk in the woods and enjoy nature like I do now, or would I be ever on the run from unwanted people, ducking for cover when the mobs of newspaper reporters and paparazzi photographers found out where I was, all the more so if I was in some personal setting? I guess most of those folks who have to live like that either enjoy the attention, or at least have learned to tolerate it, but for me, I couldn’t imagine an unhappier lifestyle, never mind the wealth.
I believe that success also comes in many forms or iterations, and most of us don’t have a clue what “success” actually is. We hear the word used a lot when people discuss a person’s financial status, but we only accept it as such because that’s what we’ve been trained to think. When you get to the truth of the matter, success has to be whatever makes a person happy – be it those things which can be experienced or owned in this life, or be it the satisfaction we experience in the knowledge that we are prepared to enter into the next life fully enlightened and that the Lord will approve our conduct in this one. That satisfaction only comes as a result of determining to seek God and live according to His judgements and that of course, will entail an endless stream of “rejections” – both of us and by us.
We will be rejected by the world because our interests are different than those taught by the world – different because there is a Spirit who guides us that does not guide those who reject Jesus Christ. We are rejected by our fellow humans when we write posts they don’t want to read – too much going on for them to bother with learning about Him who created them. We are constantly rejected, as mentioned earlier by those who could inject wealth into our lives, ends up for our own good, although that’s not why they reject us. Those kinds of rejections are normally the result of financial considerations.
There was a funny song by a musician/comic named Jerry Reed about a guy who was a talent scout who rejected this aspiring musician who called himself the Tupelo Mississippi Flash (a reference to Elvis) and the musician went on to become famous and the scout got canned for rejecting him. Sometimes the person doing the rejecting might be making a mistake, but that’s beside the point. The financial consideration was the reason for the rejection, and only through hindsight he learned of his mistake. If the person who suffers whatever rejection for whatever reason were stop feeling sorry for himself long enough to apply hindsight similarly, he might understand how his rejection served to benefit him. Look at all of the folks who became famous in their pursuits living decadent and immoral lifestyles or that came to tragic endings.
Perhaps the most well-known rejection of a human being was that of Jesus Christ. His rejection served to benefit humankind, but it must have been a desperately humiliating experience for Him. How painful it must have been to look out at the people He had been teaching, loving, and healing as they now chanted for Pilate to release Barabbas, a criminal, rather than Himself as they scorned, spat, and beat upon Him. He knew and understood that what He was doing was something that had to be done to save the world, but still the despondence must have been immense. Can you imagine how painful it would be to endure having big nails driven into your hands and feet, watching through tears and blood in His eyes as His “friends” turned away? He died an extraordinarily painful death, hanging on that big, magnificent cross – an incredible act of selflessness during which His concern was not for Himself, but for the souls of the men who were doing this to Him. As His precious life ebbed, He pleaded with God, HIs Father for forgiveness for those men. How is that for responding to rejection?
Now I don’t know about you, my friends, but in my book, Jesus Christ has suffered enough rejection. That horrible day on the cross was enough for all eternity, and no one in their right mind should ever choose to reject Him anymore. From today until the end, however, there are people who still opt to try and live without Him, to their eternal shame and damnation. There is still time, though no one knows how much, to get things right with Jesus; do it, whatever it takes, just get on your knees and let Him know you are sorry for the life you have lived and are willing to hand Him the keys to your life. He knows where you need to go and will gladly take you there.
When and if you decide to accept His generous offer of eternal life, you can expect rejection from the world, but that’s okay – that’s Satan’s doing and it’s worth all the rejection the world can throw at you to know Jesus has your back and that you will ultimately be with Him in paradise for all of eternity. You will also be doing some rejection of your own – you can reject a world in which innocent people continue to be murdered, you can reject immoral lifestyles and those who relish hatred and malevolence. You can reject those who continue to reject our Lord Jesus – you are in no way obligated to conform to their ways. Once you make up your mind to join Christ, you become free with a freedom that the human mind can scarcely imagine!
I don’t think there are many who would argue that time is growing short for us. The world as we know it will never be the same as it was yesterday, last week, last year. This chaos is the new normal. There is still some time though. Time to give a hungry person something to eat. Time to help a child by donating to a reputable charity. Time to walk in the woods, enjoy the colors of fall, and thank Jesus for all He has done for us. If you are not already in touch with Him, I cannot stress enough how important it is for you to find Him – He’s not that far away, right at the very door of your heart. Call on Him before it is too late. No more rejection.
Over the years, over the centuries, Christianity has gotten a bad rap. Our predecessors were fallible human beings, as we all are, and as such were vulnerable to attacks from the enemy. Obviously, they didn’t always win. In order to be able to gain some appreciation for the power of evil that has ever been arrayed against us, it would be prudent to understand that this enemy has a plan – a plan that has been developed and fine-tuned for millennia, and he is wise and cunning. Things that are happening today are not happening by any kind of coincidence, they’ve been planned out for ages. We’re temporary beings who are playing our parts in only one act of the great play. There were others yesterday. There were others in the first millennia, the first century, but the plan was in progress for the whole production.
Satan obviously took control at various times through the years in order to give Christians a bad name. The Spanish Inquisition, the Crusades, and other times and efforts were perpetrated so that in the end days there would be people who could point out those eras to disparage Christianity. He’s been working on this for a long time. Although one of the goals of his plan seems to have been to alienate the Islamic faith from the Christian, God has maneuvered events so as to bring believers together, and ironically, if we look closely, we are finding it possible to be able to see God through each other’s eyes. Many of us Christians see the devotion of Moslems with their daily prayers and the way they teach their children in righteousness and wish our fellow Christians would do likewise. Islam also teaches of Jesus Christ, some sects say He was a prophet, but some recognize His Divinity as the Son of God. This is important – we’re not all that far apart. Conversely, Talmudic Judaism teaches that Jesus was an imposter, and His soul is in torment – that’s way apart from what Christian Gospel or Islam teaches. Christianity is no threat to Islam, we believe differently, but neither religion teaches that murder is acceptable, although some of our predecessors on both sides have ignorantly thought it acceptable to kill to “protect” our faith. Come on, y’all – if our God is indeed Almighty, He doesn’t need any of us to kill someone to defend Him. Especially when Jesus Christ Himself teaches us not to harm others.
Today’s iteration of humanity is currently being inured to death and destruction on a scale not witnessed since the last world war, but this time things are different. When people become sufficiently apathetic to this genocide, they will be prepared to accept anything, no matter how evil, although one would be hard-pressed to expect anything any more evil than the murder of children. Today’s Christians are being asked to accept the notion that the deaths of innocent people on this incredible scale is somehow justified so that we can rationalize an acceptance of it taking place. For the Christian who reads and understands the Gospel of the New Covenant, for the few who seek the narrow gate, the murder of innocent people cannot be justified, period.
Those defenseless victims who are undergoing this inhumane slaughter are obviously hard-pressed to connect the barbarism levied against them with the will of God, but as with all things that happen in the course of mankind’s occupation of this earth, God knows what’s happening. It is of utmost importance to understand and believe that the Almighty God who created us has not abandoned us! He is intimately aware of each wound, of each drop of blood of every child, and His wrath on the Day of His vengeance will be a terrible thing to behold! Imagine the very heavens being shaken with His fury, His immeasurable anger at those who have perpetrated this unspeakable evil upon poor and innocent women and children. The “leaders” who send bombs and death shall be horrified, seeking holes in the ground, rocks and mountains to fall on them to hide them from His face, but on that Day, they will face their reckoning.
It is also of utmost importance to bear in mind that there is another life after this one. This is the one concept that can make our suffering bearable so that we may endure the evil that is upon us. Those innocent peasants who are being mercilessly slaughtered will undoubtedly be greeted and welcomed into a magnificent kingdom of peace and joy, unimaginable joy in which the tribulations of this life will be forgotten. Mothers who have lost their children, be comforted in the knowledge that those little ones are in a new home of serenity and that God shall wipe the tears from their precious little eyes. Only God knows the pain and despair you are undergoing, but God does know – believe that! The day of reckoning approaches, and justice will be visited upon those who brought this horror upon you. Jesus Christ will Himself lead an army that will utterly destroy those servants of evil who actually think they are in charge now.
When this conflict is rightly seen as a great battle between good and evil, and when the parties involved are rightly identified as to which is good and which is evil, it is interesting to observe who Satan is going after. He doesn’t seem to be worried about any of the great American megachurches – none of the “faithful” or false prophets of the congregations appear to be having any abnormal conflicts, the government isn’t bothering them. Of course, the wealthy seem to be living high on the hog – no earthly conflicts to deal with. People who profess to be atheists or even Satanists aren’t being bombed and massacred. Why is the devil assailing the poor Palestinians? Could it be that they are the true Semitic peoples? Are they the last ancestors of Abraham and Moses, et. al? Are the few Christians among the Palestinians all that remain of the true Church? After all, some of the oldest Christian churches in the world were in Palestine and Syria. I don’t know the answers to those questions, but anyone can see that for some reason, Satan is intent on destroying all that are left of those people.
Jesus gave us the Beatitudes in Matthew chapter 5. Read them and see if you can see the Palestinians – I can:
3“Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed arethose who mourn, For they shall be comforted. 5 Blessed arethe meek, For they shall inherit the [a]earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Do not give up hope – it’s one of the greatest gifts we have. Trust in the grace and mercy of the Almighty to see us through these troubled times. Allow Jesus Christ into your heart and experience the faith that you need to look forward to a better time. Tears are abundant now, but they will not always be. Christian people who have Jesus in their hearts cry for you – pray for you. There’s a better life beyond us. Do not give up on love – it is the greatest of all gifts, for God is love.
[1 John 4:8] He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
May God bless all whose hearts are broken – may Jesus Christ give us strength to endure.
While strolling through the late-summer countryside yesterday, as I looked over the lustrous patches of early goldenrods, several thoughts simultaneously bombarded my aging senses, not the least of which were things us folks alive regard as certainties. Some of them are indeed certainties, but many we regard as being so may not actually be. As interesting as it would be to hop a ride on that train of thought, maybe for the sake of brevity it’d be better to stay with those we know to be things that will happen. For instance, we have every reason to believe the sun will set this evening, and every other evening for that matter, and as this autumn weather coalesces around the foliage in this holler, we’re going to see some beautiful colors. As most of the readers of this site already know, autumn is an event which stirs the affinity for this aging soul’s eternal attempts to describe nature’s botanical metamorphosis with my own version of insane prose, which as you know will also be forthcoming, although I wouldn’t categorize that obsession with subjects of the degree of certainty to which this post attempts to allude.
As surely as we know the deciduous hardwoods will turn into immaculate subjects of magnificent beauty, some of us also know that an event of even more grandeur, of indescribable splendor will soon grace our senses with an experience we’ve been blessed to KNOW shall transpire. That event will be the glorious return of our Savior, Jesus Christ. We can know this will happen because He has bestowed on us the faith to believe He’s coming back. When folks decide to believe in Him, the process of growing into that very faith begins – and will until we meet Him.
Before I started this post, I prayed that our Marvelous Creator would afford me with words, with thoughts that could accomplish two purposes. The first would be to encourage the brothers and sisters who might, as a result of the horrible, depressing events happening in the world, find themselves becoming discouraged in their own faith, seeing the rampant and overt injustice being perpetrated upon innocent folks, and just generally experiencing the hopelessness with which the stranger visits our souls. To those of you who find your hopes flagging, remember what He told us about having patience. [Rev 14:12] “Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.“ and [2 Thessalonians 3:5] “Now may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ.” Patience is therefore important for believers – those who choose to keep the commandments, and as hard as it is to practice, we must remain patient, otherwise we leave open another door to the machinations of Satan.
The second purpose of this post is to speak a truth to nonbelievers, to encourage those who do not know Christ to look into that thing which we believers KNOW to be a certainty. The thing of which I speak is the return of Jesus Christ to gather His children and to take up His sceptre, that symbol of Kingship and justice which we anxiously await. To you I say He was here in human form performing miracles unheard of, both in His day as they would also be in ours today – that history of all the things He accomplished during His appearance alone should be sufficient to pique the curiosity of the staunchest agnostic, and give people cause to look into His teachings. Another aspect of His life’s experience is His unassailable wisdom – the human race could probably continue indefinitely just by practicing the humanity, the love and generosity He taught, as opposed to continuing as we are to the cataclysmic ending we can all see coming.
We plainly see the evil that has overtaken the world – we know it’s evil because one of the few decent human traits we all possess is that conscience that allows us to differentiate between good and evil. While it’s true that we as humans are by nature far short of attributes that separate us from spiritual virtuosity, if we but open our eyes we can still understand that human evil, greed, immorality, ad infinitum, are direct causes for our impending demise. Therefore, we should, simply as a matter of the continuity of our species, be able to comprehend the source(s) of our destruction and avoid those behaviors. But it goes deeper than that – without Jesus Christ in our lives we are forever bound to repeat those accursed things. They are the essence of human behavior – behavior that identifies that which we must strive to overcome, which is impossible without His guidance.
There are things we fear will happen that may or may not come to pass, things like the nuclear holocaust most of us fear that could indeed happen if we stay on this trajectory. Just plain conventional war on the other hand, may be one of the practices we humans can’t avoid, although I hesitate to say it has to be a certainty. This site has proposed before, and I see no reason to change that belief, that Satan is at the pinnacle of his power when there is war in our world. War breeds all kinds of sinful behavior – hatred, greed, immorality, and others. We often hear justifications for war – resources, and other forms of wealth, territorial disputes, etc., but these are incorrect – these excuses are among the many lies birthed to accommodate war. Such justifications get the means and ends of war swapped. The reason for war is war. Satan doesn’t need resources – he needs people to be killing each other. When you understand that people always lie to justify throwing a war, you see what the Lord was talking about because Satan was a liar and a murderer from the beginning. Jesus had some choice words for such followers, [John 8:44] “You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.”
War itself may not necessarily be one of the inevitable things this post is about, although in reality because of our human fallibility, it sure seems to be. We hear the old saw about death and taxes and for all practical purposes they may be correct, but one thing is for sure – Jesus is coming back for us. He said He would.
[Revelation 14:14-16]Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. 15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.” 16 So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.
Some of us are trying hard to stay on the leading edge of that sickle, making sure everyone knows they have an invitation to the Kingdom. To those who see themselves there, keep up the good work. To those who hear the invitation, don’t let it pass. RSVP now! Get to know Jesus, you’ll forever be glad you did.
Humanity has reached a place where we who are living have never been before. There can be no going back now. It seems as though every successive empire has crossed this Rubicon at some point. Especially for the United States of America, the Babylon on steroids of the modern age. Now and for the foreseeable future, the rest of the world sees the US as probably the most deplorable haunt of evil ever to exist. Our leaders, especially the congress creatures, are corrupt beyond description, and their smiling, standing ovations for the messenger of Satan could not demonstrate their malevolence more clearly. These people are EVIL! At some point in the near future, they will attempt to force everyone to acquiesce to the beast that is arising. Watch for it.
We’ve reached a juncture where citizens the world over are sick and tired of being expected to bow in obeisance to a nation that is committing the gravest of moral offenses for everyone to see. This is no accident – it has been planned for millennia. It was planned in a place which is not familiar to the physical world. We now confront a situation where we must, each of us individually, decide where our loyalties lie – either with the unspeakable evil of murdering and starving innocent little kids or fighting it, or at the very least speaking out against it. There is no middle ground here and looking the other way bestows upon people the same guilt of culpability as those who are actively engaged in the monstrous behavior. Speaking out against the genocide – or for that matter, the gross immorality rampant in our society today – is rapidly becoming a criminal offense, such are the moral depredations of the congressional demons in charge of making our “laws”. Allegiance to Jesus Christ will soon be a criminal offense. Many have, through bribery and intimidation, made the decision to support Satanic behavior of all genres. As a result of the choices of depraved humans, there will be no going back – each congressional vote supporting weapons sales to genocidal maniacs is forever etched into their record, the one that counts. AIPAC money won’t avail them when they have to give an account of their evil votes to the Almighty.
It should go without saying that never again will citizens of the world regard the US as a benevolent, honorable nation. Among others of Satanic persuasion, our illustrious “intelligence” agencies have ensured that all nations, even our so-called “allies”, though to some extent might endure us, none shall respect America anymore. That once honorable ship has sailed, never to return. Her epitaph includes every type of malevolent behavior imaginable – torture, a government sponsored illicit drug epidemic that is destroying our once-admired cities, biological weapons and their preventive measures, both apparently designed and applied to eradicate populations, state-sponsored armed robbery by “law” enforcement in the guise of some sort of voluntary-sounding “asset forfeiture”, as well as laws being enacted against moral stances we take against the new-age immorality – we have sunk to the very bottom of the cesspit and demons dance with delight in the darkness of our demise.
At this writing, there are new efforts afoot to tie Saudi Arabia to the atrocities of 9/11/2001. Lest we get a movement going to objectively examine the events of that day, a renewed effort is being exerted to impress into the public that the Saudis, or at least “terrorists” from that country, committed the offenses. This is being done with their usual slyness of speaking of lawsuits or some other distraction that is supposed to be happening, so to make it seem to the gullible public that the involvement of Saudi terrorists is a foregone conclusion, which it is not, Saudi involvement is referenced once more. The powers that be will do ANYTHING to keep the 9/11 attacks from being properly investigated, for the public might find that it was a false flag executed by a “friendly” nation – one which exerts tremendous and inexplicable influence over our government. There can be no doubt our founding fathers would be immensely disgusted at what we have allowed our country to become.
We can’t go back, no matter how much we’d like, to the days of “Leave it to Beaver”, or the innocence of being aghast at seeing President Nixon in trouble for some petty (by today’s standards) nuisance behavior in the pursuit of partisan advantage. Neither can we go back to the days of saving up for a vacation overseas where everyone we meet in foreign lands wants to hang out with us because we’re the much-admired Americans. Foreign folks don’t really want to be seen as friendly to us anymore.
We are now realizing we have stepped into the ring with a merciless opponent. We suffered body blows as we found our president had committed immoral acts with an intern. We took devastating uppercuts of guilt and shame to find out our soldiers were involved in torturing prisoners of war. We winced in pain and shock when we found that our intelligence agencies were running drugs that wound up in our cities and using the proceeds to illegally finance a war, one in which our government was openly supporting one side and secretly supporting the other. Due to a plane crash in Nicaragua in October, 1986, a creature named Eugene Hasenfus who was in the employ of the CIA was arrested by Nicaraguan authorities and the whole scheme was exposed to the world. We were smitten to the canvas when we watched the collateral murder of Iraqi journalists and the further attacks on the ambulances that came to rescue the victims. In an unbelievable exclamation point to the obituary of press freedom, we lived through the US government persecutions of Manning and Assange when they exposed that event to the world. Now we have become acclimated to the infamy of our leaders, even to the extent that nowadays most folks seem to accept malevolent behavior as normal for them.
Americans were shocked when we found out that not only were there no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but the president, an office in which we once placed our trust, knew all along there were no such weapons, and the true purpose of the Iraqi invasion was to advance the interests of our “ally” in the middle east. The late Colin Powell, once a well-respected former general, joined ranks with the professional liars as he held up his famous vial of “anthrax” in front of the whole world. The United States has truly become a nation of liars and thieves in its upper echelons. They even have the temerity to act like it angers them when some soul calls them out on some given lie, no matter how absurd and obvious to the whole world it may be. Jesus said Satan is the father of lies, so who do you suspect they are serving? [John 8:44] You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Americans watch in disbelief and embarrassment as our delegates to the United Nations sit before representatives of the world’s nations and spout lies and fabrications that offend the intelligence and/or moral sanctity of the entire assembly. Rarely a glimmer of truth passes the lips of any American or Israeli “diplomat”, yet when given the floor they rave on as if all in attendance were morons who might actually believe a word they say. No one does, but they carry on as though those listening are somehow obligated to give them the benefit of the doubt. When they are challenged as to the veracity of whatever lie they are telling, they feign incredulity and pretend to be enraged that someone wouldn’t believe their too-often ridiculous narratives.
Those “leaders”, regardless of whether they are the puppets in office, or the ones higher up the food chain who pull their strings, do not realize nor care that they have brought us to this point where we can never return to whatever normalcy we had prior to the onset of this genocide. Maybe it goes back to 9/11 or even further, and maybe that’s what they wanted all along – to alienate America from the rest of the world because it’s a fact that no nation has any obligation or reason to trust or befriend America anymore. We lost that trust when our leaders showed the world their true lack of decency by instigating color revolutions and/or stealing assets from nations who would not bend the knee to the empire. How can we blame Saudi Arabia or China or anyone else for unloading US debt when they know now that the US is capable with no compunction of sanctioning them and seizing their money and/or property at any time simply because they disagree with US policy? We can never go back, but that’s where their true master, Satan has brought the world. His game is destruction, and he doesn’t have the first hint of a conscience, even and maybe especially toward those who serve him. He dumps them for bigger and better things. It happens all the time; Sheldon Adelson is no longer in operation, I seriously doubt that anyone misses him, and I do not envy his soul! The day will come when the devil turns each and every one of his followers over to their own destruction, such is his loyalty to them, but as long as they are still breathing, they don’t seem to know it. The empire is only just beginning to crumble. For now, they hide behind their ill-gotten wealth and live high on the hog. We are told in the Bible that [1 Peter 5:8] “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” His followers are no exception, when the time is right, he’ll happily destroy them, or gleefully watch on as they destroy themselves, his whole purpose is destruction – no conscience, no loyalty. He has already given them what they wanted, riches and power in this life, and nothing else will be forthcoming because his time here is short, and he has other depredations to which he must attend before the end.
We live among people who support genocide, the merciless slaughter of the most innocent people imaginable. They are being murdered by the thousands with American weapons as the world watches on in astonishment at this heretofore unseen evil. Sane and decent people cannot fathom the depths of evil being committed – most are shocked that there are creatures on this earth who purport to be human beings yet are capable of inflicting such horror on other human beings. To support such unimaginable malevolence is to irrevocably concede one’s humanity, deny one’s conscience, and when that happens there’s no going back, for they have purchased their ticket and taken their seat on the train bound for hell and it only makes one-way trips.
To good people of moral standing and spiritual aspiration, y’all hang on – it’s going to get worse for us for a while, but then one fine day, it will get better – the Day He returns, and He will. Hang on to Jesus with all your might, He knows where your heart is. He is the ONLY Way to win this battle, and He always stands beside us, even in these dark times. Do not fear nor give in to these monsters – they have rejected Jesus and are headed for destruction, and only God knows the terror without mercy that awaits them. Don’t expect mercy from them, they do not know what it is, yet we must be merciful ourselves at every opportunity – that’s one of the preeminent things that separate us from them. We truly become what we were created to be – God’s children – when we are able to forgive and to love even our enemies, and becoming God’s people is the only way we can reclaim our humanity. [Matthew 5:44,45] But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
Christians cannot support the evil that’s happening in this world, don’t even think about it, and don’t let them get to you.
All the folks who’ve stayed diligent about getting the truth out about 9/11 must be making some progress of late, because there’s evidence surfacing of fear of truth on this subject lately. Perhaps it is because of so many Americans finally learning to question narratives put forth by the government. The dots aren’t all that hard to connect after all, it’s just we have for so many years trusted nightly newscasts, we hardly dared to question what we saw on the crawlers. But now that everyone is learning none of them are to be trusted about anything they say, it’s almost like getting smacked in the head with a two by four. Of course, I remember that British reporter woman talking about building seven having come down as it stood proudly behind her in the same video! It did fall, but that was after her newscast!
Where Americans fall short in their skepticism abilities is that we rarely question motives and that’s important, however we’ve been carefully trained to avoid such questions. Sure, we can see that the building is still there, and sure we can see that she’s lying right there in front of the whole world, but why, and what significance to the entire event does this lie reveal? Looking back, it becomes obvious that the news report she was reading off had been pre-scripted. This screw-up gave away the extreme probability that the entire event had been pre-scripted. There can be no argument, no rationalization whatsoever for her saying that building had fallen – there are thousands of buildings in New York City, why did she choose a building that would actually fall? Of course, someone, or probably many someones, knew that building was going to come down, they just got the timing of the report wrong. Furthermore, due to the impossibility of an office fire in the lower stories causing a modern building to collapse (in its own footprint, another impossibility), they had to cook up some “scientific” reasoning that could have caused the collapse, and a US government organization, NIST, cooked up a report that would make it sound reasonable to the sheep.
Later, when the University of Alaska at Fairbanks did a two-year study of the events surrounding the collapse of building 7, the unassailable and peer-reviewed results of which challenged the official NIST version, the results of that Alaska study were essentially disregarded, with no scientifically valid reasoning. This refusal by a once highly respected organization to rebut the findings of a very sophisticated study by guys with PhDs in engineering was taken to court to try and get them to amend the official report – all the way to the Supreme Court, where the sitting justices revealed their inability or unwillingness to apply any rules of justice and in effect said that government institutions are legally allowed to concoct outright false reports for official records. If you just follow this one rabbit trail and don’t even look into any of the other numerous fallacies in the 9/11 record, you can easily see that at the very least, our government is hiding something big about 9/11. Interestingly, there’s enough new “information” coming out right now (that cunningly supports the official narrative), that it bears watching.
As evidence of the progress of groups like Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, some seemingly innocent videos are going viral in which one is an apparently innocent young lady who seems to be undergoing an epiphany as to the deviousness of the government by revelations of a letter, purported to be written by Osama bin Laden several years ago which reveals why Islamic types have gone to war against our government and others who have committed so many grave wrongs towards those of the Moslem faith. In my opinion, the deviousness of these videos is atrocious. On the one hand, in the one I’m referencing it appears that she is overcoming a former misbelief that her government was innocent of mistreatment of other peoples – a misbelief which is absolutely correct – but this “letter” deviously points the finger of guilt for 9/11 back towards Islamic terrorists for taking retribution by doing the 9/11 events, which as is slowly coming to light, they did not do. Someone else was responsible for 9/11, regardless of what this little actress says in her video. So, she is in effect saying that yes, America had it coming, but the deception of the video is how she tries to convince us to connect dots that are not there. If one were to believe the emphasis of her video, one would have to unquestioningly accept the narrative that some guys that couldn’t even fly a Piper Cub actually took over some very sophisticated passenger jets and were competent to fly them at incredible speeds into buildings, but the way she accedes this is sort of as a side note to the “honesty” of bin Laden’s letter. That is done on purpose to make her “concern” so believable, as well as attempt to erase any notion of someone else being guilty of orchestrating 9/11. She’s pretty convincing so she undoubtedly earned whatever she got from her performance, but when you step back and see what they’re actually trying to do, it becomes so obvious that even New Yorkers can see it. To add credibility to this and other videos referencing bin Laden’s “Letter to America”, several platforms are – very publicly – taking them down, as if the videos were somehow supporting terrorism. They’re all working this one together. I personally believe that something new and big is about to come out and these videos are getting put out there to buttress the official narrative in anticipation of it. There are more similar videos out there, and more than one of them say in effect, that we NEED to read bin Laden’s letter.
The biggest takeaway from this video for me is why would they want, or need, to pad the 9/11 narrative now? What event, or series of events would lead the Mossad and CIA to trot out this letter in a video by some actress who would seem like some housewife who has just happened to learn of bin Laden’s letter and what it says, and so had an epiphany, even suggesting that we “NEED” to read this letter so we can appreciate the gravity of bin Laden telling us why his cadre would do something so evil which, to her astonishment, was deserved. Now we can all start reacting to the notion of whether or not America deserved to be punished instead of questioning who actually pulled it off, and once we allow them to lead us into that conversation, it will be because we accept that the terrorists did it.
If you remember, they did a similar production using a “nurse” telling everybody how brutally the Iraqi soldiers grabbed Kuwaiti babies from incubators and smashed them against the walls to soften Americans up for the Iraq war, events which were later proven to be false, and this girl was a daughter of one of the Kuwaiti puppets and had been coached to deliver her fabricated story. I’m just saying if you are wise to the deception of today’s servants of evil, but especially if you are not, do not believe this garbage video for one second. As mentioned earlier, I think something is happening, maybe due to the diligence of A&E for 9/11 Truth, that is about to upset the “official” 9/11 narrative.
I can’t believe they are still trying to trot out bin Laden and Al Qaida for their deceptive propaganda these days, but I guess as long as there are gullible people out there, they believe they can pull it off. When she compared this newfound knowledge (not that someone else besides Al Qaida was involved, but only that we deserved it) to being the same way she had to “deconstruct” Christianity, she gave away her game – that was supposed to sound like another aside to her story, almost as innocuous as the revelation of our guilt, but it was actually a very big part of it. Come on folks, think about it. The only thing new in her whole discourse was her own changing of her mind, the narrative of 9/11 is still very much intact in her presentation, in fact, her performance is intended to build on it. And if you allow yourself to buy into it, it does.
I used to be a fanatical NASCAR fan, and one of the most exciting things in my world back then was hearing Darrell Waltrip saying, “Reach up there and tighten those straps one more time boys and let’s go racing!” What a thrill! I don’t do racing or sports anymore because I guess I grew leery of the idolatry involved, at least for me.
I think it’s about time for us as followers of Jesus to understand that it’s time to buckle ourselves into our faith, put our eyes on the cross and hang on, because it’s time for things to start happening on a scale we’ve not been used to. For instance, even just a few years ago did anyone think our society would get to this point where mass murder of innocent people – on a horrific scale – would be unquestioningly supported by the US government and way too many of our fellow countrymen? Almost our entire congress gave adulating standing ovations to the Satanic monster who is orchestrating this travesty.
We’ve devolved to this point in our history where we understand that everything the government and it’s hired media tells us is lies, lies, and more lies. A lot of folks still believe them though, and it’s not really because they don’t know they are being fed lies, but many people listen to their fabrications simply because they are hearing what they want to hear. [2 Timothy 3,4] 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. Too many of us have become the “they” in that verse.
I suppose it would be prudent to try and understand why the leaders of the world tell so many lies in the first place. To start with, their master, Satan is the originator of the lie. [John 8:44] You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. These are the words of Jesus Christ Himself talking to people who purported to be descendants of Abraham. What a coincidence! We have a whole nation of people in the world right now who purport to be descendants of Abraham and everything that comes from them is false. Those people are not even who they claim to be: [Revelation 3:9] Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
We’re all aware, or at least we should be, that certain false prophets, the likes of Judas Hagee and his ilk, would have us buy into the lie that those people are indeed the descendants of Abraham and as such, they merit our spiritual and financial support, but these same people are vehement enemies of our Lord Jesus Christ. Not only are they not who they claim to be but are imposters, they hate our Savior. Why are we, as Christians supposed to believe these people are the same ones who inherited the promise God made to Abraham, when Jesus Christ Himself explicitly tells us these people are not who they claim to be? Either you believe Jesus and accept the fact that they are imposters, or you ignore Him and support them – you can’t have it both ways regardless of what the eminent pastor Hagee tries to say.
Please try to understand the frustration as I write, but we don’t have much time on our hands to try and expose the charade Satan has put before the world, and some of us tend to be passionate about our belief in Jesus as well as to get a bit indignant at the rampant disregard for the truth in the world today. Satan, as Jesus told us as mentioned above, is the father of lies. Unless you insist on hearing and believing a narrative that is utterly false, you must turn away from the absolute deception in the world’s information flow. Satan has given his servants control of almost all communication people and platforms such as network news, press conferences, and most importantly, politicians – people who are in positions of power and influence.
We watched, helplessly and in complete frustration as the creature from the evil realm stood before the congress of the United States and delivered a speech that was completely devoid of any semblance of truth. Just as a side note, he is from Philadelphia and of Polish descent and his name was changed from Mileikowsky to Netanyahu – I guess to sound more Jewish, but it’s doubtful if he has any Hebraic blood, even though he claims to have some Sephardic ancestry. Everything this man has ever said is a lie, so why should we believe his claim that he has some Jewish blood? Everyone in attendance at that joint session knew that everything this man said was a lie, yet almost all of them gave him standing ovations as he vomited his bile before them. Just imagine a hall full of demons from hell listening to a message from their master in some sinister, dark setting and salivating over his diatribe, and why? For money, of course, or maybe the likelihood that their names might be in a certain little black book compiled by Jeffry Epstein that now probably belongs to a certain foreign intelligence service. On that note, unless someone involved gets a notion to repent and come clean (highly unlikely), we have no way of knowing whether the execrable Epstein is really keeping Satan and Henry Kissinger company in hell or hidden away somewhere on some remote island. More deception.
We are living in a time where we witness the absolute truth of what Jesus taught us about lies and deception and the evil they accompany. The world we know is almost a complete fabrication and a lot of folks are okay with it, especially if there’s money to be had by going along. Jesus said the gate is wide that leads to destruction, and we are seeing more and more people buying into the deception of the world and incredibly some of the “churches” are leading the way. Children are undergoing mass murder and starvation in the eyes of the whole world, and preachers like Hagee desperately clutch at straw men to justify it and tell us we should support the murderers who are doing it. Unbelievable!
For now, we have sources of alternative news (which probably won’t last) and it’s ironic that there is more truth to be found from secular people who run blogs and do internet videos than from any mainstream sources. Or from most of the churches. This is because the same servants of Satan who are promoting the slaughter in Gaza own all of the major media, and more importantly, they have bought mega church pastors. They own our educational institutions; they even control our military. They cannot control our souls though, and that’s a source of infinite consternation because it’s the main thing Satan wants.
If you hear it on the mainstream news nowadays, you can usually disregard it. If it comes from a government spokesman, unless he is Sergei Lavrov, you can also disregard it. Every event that happens and gets a lot of press, e.g. chemical weapons at Douma, the Russian massacre at Bucha, the recent Hezbollah missile on a soccer field, Hamas raping women, etc., you can completely ignore – it’s all a bunch of lies. Some of them are in incredible – “There is no evidence of genocide…”
Most of all, don’t listen to the lies – Jesus is the Truth! If you are not a believer, you need to learn about Jesus Christ before it’s too late. He’s the only One able to lead us out of this mess we’re in.
If you are a believer already or choose to become one, reach up there and pull those belts tight and hang on for the ride of your life! The time is short. When Satan and his minions finally conclude they will lose, it’s going to get ugly. Keep the faith.
Adrift – this once stalwart and reliable beacon of freedom called America now careens to and fro at the whim of whatever wave or wind arises – always from the same realms of darkness – to influence her direction. Leaders are captive to the direction of whomever holds the most wealth or maintains some little black book rife with evidence of morally shocking behavior. Thus, the need for deceit of a proportion never seen before, is upon us. And I don’t even believe Epstein is dead.
Falsehood has become the stock-in-trade of all their pursuits. If the leadership of any entity mistakenly tells a lie, they are typically forgiven once the falsehood is acknowledged, but after being served generations of lies and having come to realize that the entire world that has been presented to them is a contrived fabrication, then people are susceptible to doubt their leadership. And why not? Why should anyone be surprised that the populace now suspects each and every narrative of each and every event that happens on the public stage?
Back before the whole house of cards began to collapse when the spook agencies had firm control of all of our information sources, we tended to believe what the mainstream news told us, even though they fed us daily allotments of swill even then. The difference between then and now is through sources of alternative media, social networks, blogs such as this one, people are taking their rusty brains out of the attic and beginning to realize they still work, and all of these years we have spent allowing others to think for us have brought us to the edge of the precipice, but at least now we can see it.
Those of us who have been mocked with derision for doubting the JFK narrative are being heard, often for the first time, and some who bought into the “magic bullet” narrative, are seriously looking at the likelihood of a bullet from a high-powered rifle hitting more than one person (while changing direction) and being found in pristine condition. The 9/11 narrative, full of holes you could drive a big diesel truck through, is being reconsidered. People are actually wondering why that reporter was telling everyone that Building 7 had been razed to the ground while that exact building was very visibly standing in the background of her own televised report as she was saying it, and then came down later. How about after seeing the horrific collisions that obviously would have vaporized everyone on the plane, they found that “terrorist” passport ON TOP of the debris? It seems a lot of folks are taking a second look.
Is it any wonder that people still question the Sandy Hook story and wonder why crisis actors were hired to pose as witnesses? Actors are hired for one thing – to ACT! Alex Jones may have been victimized by the courts, but that issue is far from settled. A lot of folks question the moon landings now – all these years later – because they are waking up in vast numbers to the fact that their government has lied to them over and over until now, they question everything. No politician, media figure, or even law enforcement spokesperson gets the free pass of trust from the citizenry anymore. That’s what happens when the glue that holds an entire nation’s narratives together is that of utter lies and deception.
When our public discourse has become an entertainment spectacle to the extent that people who bother to watch press briefings are no longer watching to get information from the likes of John Kirby or Matthew Miller, but only to see if there are any intrepid reporters in the crowd who are brave enough to confront the lies they are telling. Lies such as, “We see no evidence of genocide.” There are around 8 billion people in the world – how many of them do you think believe that even though that is the official stance of the US government, that it could possibly be true and that in view of all the videos coming out of Gaza, that ANYONE could buy into the notion that presumably smart people see – not only no genocide, but NO EVIDENCE of genocide? What, pray tell, would evidence of genocide look like? Why doesn’t the brave reporter pose that question to them?
When TPTB put faces up on podia who repeatedly lie to the public, and nowadays to the extent that they don’t even try to hide their deception anymore, how do they expect the people to receive their narratives? They’ve got this attempted Trump assassination fiasco so screwed up at this point, that no one believes anything at all about it. Everyone involved with it is lying about everything they say, and some of their own stories contradict themselves. What a mess! But this is where we have gotten ourselves by allowing unadulterated lies to become the foundation for our whole system. No wonder the US is now referred to as the “Empire of Lies”. Even so, they still – to a person – have perfected the act of pretend astonishment and shock, even anger, when anyone dares to question their narratives. This itself is more damning than the lies themselves because it reveals just how accepted they expect their deception to be. What? You watch news videos that show innocent people being slaughtered and dare to question whether it is done in “self defense” by some murderous band of criminals?
If a nation “has a right” to murder innocent people in “self defense”, then why shouldn’t Ted Bundy have had the right to claim he killed those girls in “self defense” because they tried to hit him while he was brutalizing them? After all he had a right to defend himself. The same logic should apply. The art of lying has come to near perfection, but only for those who believe, or at least, and in order to show fealty, pretend to believe them. That pretense itself makes people as culpable as those who weave the tangled webs of deceit to start with.
Jesus said that Satan is the father of all lies. Connect the dots. If you hear someone lying to you and you know it’s a lie – the person telling it knows it’s a lie, then who is that person serving? It ain’t rocket science, folks.
“I am the Way, the TRUTH, and the Life, and no one comes to the Father but by me.” – Jesus Christ
God bless all and watch out who you trust in this world of deception.
