Still a Little Time to Decide – But Not Much

There’s a lot of things happening in the world right now and what we as believers need to do, probably more than anything else at this particular time, is to keep our focus. Keep our eyes on Jesus Christ, for it is only with His guidance that we have any hope at all of emerging from this Satanic nonsense with our hearts in the right place. This is about as serious as it gets – the time is growing short, and we don’t have to be especially blessed with a spirit of discernment to see it coming to a close. Evil spirits are hammering down our doors!

There are readers of this blog in various places throughout the world. Not especially many readers, but they are in several diverse places. If you are reading this post, I believe God is trying to get your attention and take your rightful place in His Kingdom. He is, through such foolishness as an internet article from some obscure old hillbilly in the Ozarks of Missouri, trying to encourage you to take this bit of hope for yourself, and just as importantly for your families and loved ones, and see the condition of the world and understand that we have evolved from whatever foundation(s) we have known, from whatever “normality” to which we grew accustomed in our past lives. No matter what conditions arise, no matter what persecutions we face, things will never go back to what we knew in our former days. Get ready for some big changes, folks. Steel yourselves for what lies ahead. Take refuge in the Word of God and the shelter of the Rock for that’s the only way to survive this mess we’re in.

Here in the US, our “leaders” have completely surrendered our national sovereignty to the evil entities that the apostle Paul warned us about. There are still indications that a few foreign countries are not willing to capitulate to the dark forces – the wealthy elites – that are slowly but steadily enveloping the world around us. Don’t be discouraged to see them for what they are, they’ve always been like this, it’s just that now the masks are coming off – the man (men) of sin are being revealed and everyone is faced with the choice they must make – to join forces with the evil or to steadfastly hold out for Jesus. He said, [John 14:6]: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no one comes to the Father but through me.” He is the ONLY way to get through this calamity of a world we are in today.

We are witnessing the complete dissolution of the world we have known. The ICE movement is merely the beginning, those evil entities behind their masks are showing us just how helpless our Constitution is to protect a cowardly populace which is light years away from the courage of the founders of this nation. Don’t get the idea that I’m somehow promoting nationalism, because in light of what our ancestors did to the Indians and the fact that this country has been at war in all but a handful of the years of its existence, and in light of the fact that our “leaders” have sold out their Constitutional duties of governance for whatever pittance of lucre they deem appropriate for their souls, I’m certainly not advocating for this, or any other country at least as we recognize sovereign nations of humans.

Our real sovereign nation is, and has always been, the Kingdom of Jesus Christ to which we as believers pay our allegiance. We now see how governments of men are, and have always been, at odds with His Kingdom. Men are fallible and tend to wander from righteousness and even from good judgement when it comes to money. They reach that point where there is nothing they won’t do for wealth, especially when wealth becomes synonymous with power – which it always does. Satan took Jesus up on that mountain and promised Him lordship over the world if He would only worship him (Satan). Of course, the Lord Jesus refuse the offer, but through the ensuing years right up to this day Satan has made that and similar offers to unscrupulous men and they didn’t turn him down. That’s why all wealthy men in the world today are totally Satanic and there’s nothing – no evil – of which they are not capable. No matter how revulsive and sickening it looks to “normal” folks. See, Jesus will ultimately have Lordship over the whole world, and His followers will one day reign as kings as well, but not by worshiping Satan – by following the Word of God.

All of the world has been given the chance – through the promises of the Gospel – of an unimaginably wonderful future that will last forever if we but refuse Satan’s offer of wealth, fame, and power here on the earth and accept Jesus Christ as our infallible Shepherd. All of the rich guys whose names are now coming to light because of their unbelievably evil deeds will soon face the wrath of God and they will be required to pay a horrific price for their short time here as the “elite”. Where is Sheldon Adelson? Where is Dick Cheney, Jacob Rothschild, Joseph Stalin? All of those guys took Satan’s bait and unless they repented before the end, it would be safe to assume they are in for an unenviable future – FOREVER! The sad part is that so many of our fellow travelers who are not rich are headed for that same eternity, simply because they refuse to follow the only One who could save them.

The fact is, folks, that each and every one of us have a choice to make, and by not following, or just ignoring the offer of salvation from Jesus, the choice is being made, just as surely as if one were to outright sell his soul for wealth or fame. All who refuse Jesus Christ, especially after these days as the world of evil is being revealed for what it actually is, are headed for an eternity of indescribable sadness and agony. Time is getting short; Palantir and Black Rock are accumulating more wealth and souls for Satan every day; evil is rearing its ugly head; the time to decide is upon us and there will be no going back. Get right with Jesus Christ before it’s too late. Do everything in your power to stop the AI Data Centers – they are evil in every respect, including their insatiable need for water and electricity. Vote against any and every politician who promote those things, no matter what party they profess to serve.

Again, I urge, no I implore you to learn about Jesus Christ while you still have time -you won’t have it long. Please share this message with all whom you love.

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

Reasons to Avoid Envy of the Rich

If you are one of the regulars here, you probably know that Folkpotpourri has been offline for several days. I’ve been fighting a spiritual battle that I realized was coming, but I didn’t have any idea how savagely I was about to be assailed. I won’t go into the details in this post. During this respite, however, and in those moments of clarity with which I have been blessed, the realization that the end is much closer than any of us imagine, I have felt that the urgency of our situation is dictating that I must continue to reach out – other believers in Jesus are doing so – we are indeed living in the last of days. The sharp sickle is about to be thrust into the crop.

Our wealth, at least for those who the world imagines to be wealthy, is about to become worthless. Imagine if you are a billionaire and a time comes when you discover that you are suddenly among the poorest of persons. It’s going to happen – those fellows who have spent the last several years hiring contractors to dig out enormous bunkers that have been lavishly furnished will finally understand that all of the gold and silver, the precious gems and other accoutrements that exist as symbols of one’s status that they stash in their holes – is not worth anything anymore. When some rich guy discovers he needs drinking water more than he needs an army of security guards, he will at last understand that things the world once considered worthless are in fact those very things humans need the most. Their (almost) greatest fear will suddenly come to pass – they will be poor – as poor as the hungriest child in Ethiopia or Palestine, and worth no more in the eyes of God than any other person on earth. When the real reckoning is upon them as they stand before Jesus Christ at judgement, (their greatest fear) they will suddenly wish they were in the shoes of some poor child. For those who rejected Jesus, this moment will be the most horrific instance in the life of any human being.

Security details and bodyguards will abandon the “elites” when the money they’ve been paid is not worth anything anymore. No one will be able to eat their digital wealth – which won’t be available anyway, because when things get bad enough, the databases where their wealth is “stored” will more than likely be dissolving into wisps of smoke from rubble heaps that were once elaborate data collection centers filled with blinking lights and computer banks. The ones hidden underground will fare no better once God unleashes the great earthquake mentioned in [Revelation 16:18]: “”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.” In fact, at some point during the end days, people will be so afraid of God’s wrath that they will beg for the rocks to cave in on them, such will be their terror. [Revelation 6:15-17]:  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, 16 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! 17 For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”

When they come to their eternal torment, they will be as the rich man looking on at the poor man, Lazarus who will be in paradise with Father Abraham, and there will be no hope for their relief as they burn in the eternal fires of hell – not even a drop of water! [Luke 16:24]: “Then he cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.’ This might sound like an unjust punishment, but did that rich guy show mercy to helpless people like for instance, the peasants suffering in the Gaza holocaust? No the rich Americans forced American universities to shut down protests when students brought the genocide to the world’s attention. Abraham told him [Luke 16:25,26] “But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. 26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.’ No help will be forthcoming, forever – even their beloved CERN won’t be able to open a portal through that void.

Why is the fate of wealthy being discussed here? Because these passages so visibly describe the eternal torment that lies in wait for non-believers. Unfortunately for those, even the not rich, people who continue to reject Jesus Christ, the same dismal future awaits. Many even envy the rich, but unfortunately for them, wanting to be wealthy can be as bad as being wealthy, because desiring riches is a lust of the flesh and a form of idolatry. The Bible says the LOVE for money is the problem. [1 Timothy 6:10]: “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” So, you don’t have to be wealthy to fall into this scheme of Satan.

If you are not rich, consider yourself blessed and enjoy being outside the group of those who have sold their souls. Rejoice in the abundant life of the true Christian! Out here in the country we can walk outside into the woods and enjoy the natural beauty God bestowed on us. Now I realize that the “elites” also have access to these things, but the real blessing is in the heart – common folks who dare to believe are gifted with the ability to appreciate God’s creation in a way that those heartless, soulless, creatures of wealth can never experience. We have the unique ability to enjoy things that don’t cost anything – and we enjoy them vastly more than some banker enjoys his money.

As the age of our world draws to a close, we should take advantage of our spiritual blessings and learn to appreciate the things around us, the solace of a walk in the country watching red birds and hearing crows talking is a wonderful sabbatical from the growing evil with which we are faced. There are countless events taking place around us that the enemy has set in place to cause us to feel helpless; things over which we have little or no control, but don’t let Satan take away your hope. He would really like to. Hang on to the hope that is in Jesus and we’re promised we’ll get through this. Jesus’ promises are a guarantee, we just have to stay strong and wait for Him.

Jesus tells us in several places of the importance of being patient, because under these dark clouds of uncertainty in today’s chaotic world, it’s not hard to become frustrated and lose hope, but when things are at their worst, zoom out and keep in mind that there is another life awaiting us, and the joy we will experience in that next one will make all of these trials as nothing. Be prepared at any time to just stop what you’re doing and have a talk with Jesus – it’s surprising just how much the Spirit can lift your heart – even at the worst of times. The rich people who presume to be in control right now will see a justice so unimaginable horrible they will all beg to go back and do it over, but it’ll be too late, they’ll plead with a God Who no longer hears them – for all of eternity. Think about a day when guys who are immensely rich in this life will envy the poorest who have lived among us – forever.

I guess my point is that we should never allow ourselves to envy the rich – indeed, we should pray for them because they need repentance and forgiveness as much as anyone.

May the blessings of the Almighty Father find and keep us through these last troubled days.
