ELECTION RESULTS – – – THE TRUTH

November 6, 2024 By Leave a Comment

MAGA victory – – – “. . . the goodness of God leads you to repentance.”

The Trump victory in 2016 and the turnaround of the next four years was a reprieve from the dangerous, downward spiral of America into evil socialism and government control and loss of freedom.
We thank God for the prayers answered and the mercy shown to this God-inspired and God-blessed country.
But the rebuilding that made America great again was not complete, and it was dismantled again in the following four years, which have not yet ended.

We desperately needed the election results of yesterday, and we thank God for the miracle, that many Americans are now awake and aware of the dangers, the evils, that we face.

ELECTION RESULTS 2024 – – – THE TRUTH
The election results do not equal or include repentance.

– – –

The 2024 election campaign was the wildest, the most expensive, the most vigorous, the most divisive, the most decisive for this country.
The results are the most amazing, miraculous, providential relief imaginable.

The easiest mistake Americans can make now is to relax in the election victory, enjoy the restoration of hope for normalcy, and return to our everyday lives the way they were – – – – – without addressing the wrongs that only Christians can right, with God.

– – –

Restoring truth was not complete in 2017-2021.
Making America Great Again did not include a call to national repentance before God and national revival then.
It did not include a call from leadership to national prayer and fasting—an example set by past leaders of this country in times of serious need for God’s help—which God honored !

– – –

The 2024 election results do not equal or include repentance.
This may be the most elusive campaign in American history, to enlist and engage national leaders and pastors and committed Christians in prayer and fasting over our sins, for which God will carry out His judgment without our repentance.

This morning on American Family Radio (afr.net “Real Truth for Today”), Jeff Shreve’s guest focused directly on the verse below, and I will passionately reinforce this truth.

– – –

And now the complete Bible verse we must take to heart and not forget:
“Do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?”

SURPRISE – – – OR – – – NO EXCUSE

November 4, 2024 By Leave a Comment

If Israel had known about the October 7 attack before it happened, they would certainly not have been taken by surprise.

America knows about the coming terrorist attack, The Big One—and yet, we will be taken by surprise—a hundred times worse than October 7.

Israel had leadership and defense willing and ready and able to respond as needed—and it is working.

America has no such leadership and no resolve to deal with what’s coming.
In reality, the terrorists are welcomed by the administration with open doors* and red carpet*—they can have it their way, whatever they want.

America’s leadership is sold out to the terrorists and the regimes behind them.
The bad guys will do everything terrorists do, largely unopposed by our government.
Why ?
Partly because we can’t.
Largely because we won’t.

Afghanistan—here.

What we have seen in bits and pieces of the evil in our government—will suddenly be widespread, universally all across the country.
We will wake up to the brutal reality that America is over—freedom is replaced with tyranny—and leaders on the left will launch the dictatorship they have been planning for decades.

*open doors—open borders
*red carpet—all the perks and resources, stolen from Americans

OUT OF STYLE

November 4, 2024 By Leave a Comment

(Note the date—day before election in America)

Styles—come and go like a pendulum
Faith, Freedom, History—come and go, repeat like a pendulum

Some pendulums swing back quickly, where things we don’t like don’t last, and good returns soon enough that we see it in our lifetime.
Then we exercise wishful thinking that bigger, ‘badder’ things getting bigger and ‘badder’ all around us will automatically get better because “everything always works out eventually.”
NOT ! ! !

What if we die watching evil grow and grow worse and worse—pendulum of life and justice still swinging hard left with no sign or effort to stop it or even slow it down.
[Israel in slavery four hundred years—six million Jews killed in the holocaust—10-7-23]
“Truth forever on the scaffold,
Wrong forever on the throne.”

Is life just a pendulum ?
Is history just a pendulum ?

Good wins—Good people win.
Bad wins—Bad people win.
Repeat.
Repeat.
And that’s all, folks ?

Good and Evil—two forces battling it out forever, and we’re stuck between in the middle of their perpetual fight ?

Some things that are less important that go out of style are just facts of life that don’t cause much trouble (except for businesses that counted on selling something after its prime).

Some things that are more important seem to simply come and go without regard to our effort or well-being.

We want to see things turn out right, and then we have to deal with it when they don’t.

But if we have historical perspective—and not spoiled by ease and comfort we have come to expect—we can consider sacrifice for the future and future generations, for our children and grandchildren.

Throughout history faith-full people have given everything and their lives for better lives for those living after them.

Price of freedom—done deal—handed to us on a silver platter (with a silver spoon, if you will)—price paid by millions before us.

Most of us have not paid much for freedom—some have.
Most do not want to pay to keep freedom.
Many in power seek to steal freedom from us.
Many are willing to surrender freedom.

We were handed freedom on a silver platter.
Now, willingness to surrender freedom is handing it over on a copper platter melted down from what was our means to protect it from evil power.

SACRIFICING ALL, FOR FREEDOM, IS OUT OF STYLE TODAY !

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood, striving against sin.”—–Jesus Christ

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord. If they have called the master of the house satan, how much more shall they call them of his household?”—–Jesus Christ

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“If anyone wants to come after Me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me.”—–Jesus Christ

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“You will be hated by all people for My Name’s sake.”—–Jesus Christ

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“ Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.”—–Jesus Christ

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.”—–Jesus Christ

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“Endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.”—–Paul

“Freedom will look easy when we don’t have to die to get it.”—–George Washington
“We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.”—–Paul and Barnabas
– – –
Considering the words of George Washington and the words of Jesus Christ, reminds us that we live in two kingdoms at the same time.
The temporary kingdom of this world is opposed to the eternal kingdom of God.
Followers of Jesus will be citizens in heaven forever.
Citizens of the United States have this once-in-history gift of freedom, and the opportunity and responsibility to keep it.

Watching freedom wane and America be destroyed, and accepting that without a fight, is not what God had in mind when He created this continent and inspired the creation of this country.

If we engage in the fight, and if we lose in the fight, and if we are faithful to Jesus and His Word, He will be with us to the end, through persecution and martyrdom.
“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”—–Jesus Christ
“He who kills you will think He is doing God’s service.”—–Jesus Christ

“Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne,—Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own.”—–James Russell Lowell

“Be faithful unto death, and I will give you a crown of life.”—–Jesus Christ

‘RELIGIOUS’ RITUALS

November 1, 2024 By Leave a Comment

Rituals—acts performed to reflect and reinforce commitment to deeply held beliefs.

Religious rituals—acts performed to reflect and reinforce commitment to deeply held beliefs about God (gods), including how to approach Him, how to appease Him, and how to be right with Him when we die.

There are many other categories of rituals that people engage in—shall I say ‘religiously’—that may add meaning to their life, or may rob them of meaningful life.

There are things we do, things we spend time and money on, things we sacrifice for, that we believe will make our life better, or even make someone else’s life better.
– – –
Stop for a minute.
Think of rituals in your life.
Are some good ?
Are some bad ?
Are some ugly ?

Good–
+ holidays
+ with family
+ with friends
+ with like-minded believers
+ with God
+ with yourself for health, fitness
+ funerals—knew Jesus?—YES

Bad–
— working for unpleasant person
— fixing others’ mistakes, again
— fixing your own mistakes, again
— cleaning up after another disaster
— sin, consequences, repentance
— funerals—knew Jesus?—? ? ?

Ugly–
X losing job (not your fault), looking for another
X obeying bad government
X paying taxes for abortion
X bearing others’ intentional attacks, hurts
X cancer, chemo
X funerals—knew Jesus?—NO

– – –

I live in Central Texas, fifteen miles from I-35.
Every time I watch the traffic on I-35, it feels like everybody’s doing a ritual.
It’s a ritual developed over time, simple at first, to a massive lifeline for our survival, that we can’t do without.
Well, that’s nothing new.
– – –
We recently completed a major expansion of this artery, and now the nation’s lifeblood flows much better (for the most part).
– – –
Then I think of how fragile this system of transportation really is.
No one talks about it, because no one can deal with it, if I-35 (etc) goes down.
– – –
We deal with accidents and delays fairly well, and accept the cost.
But someone is waiting to shut down our life-sustaining system that keeps our transportation system alive—electricity.
– – –
Oh, we know all about that, and we know we can’t do anything about it.
SO, . . . ? ? ?
– – –
– – –
Religious rituals invoke God to help—performed at all times, so we can count on His help when disaster strikes, hopefully.
Frankly, I don’t see any religious rituals now that would count with God when electricity is out permanently.

The ritual poured into I-35 (24/7) has no provision, no recourse for the day it fails.

Question—
DOES ANYBODY REALLY THINK IT WON’T FAIL ?

Question—
Does anybody have provisions for when it fails ?

Question—
Does anybody know any leader talking about this ?

Question—
Does anybody know how we’re going to eat when we can’t buy food ?
– – –
The only religious ?’ritual’? I ever observe is a comment when this subject is raised—
We just have to trust God when that happens.

Hmmm.
Noah comes to mind.
We like the Bible story.
We know there was wickedness, like we have today.
They knew there was impending judgment—Noah told them.
Who in their right mind would spend a hundred years PREPPING ?

Nobody
NOBODY
N O B O B Y
considered repentance.
So, not a chance for revival.
So, not a chance for survival.

Is it really any different in America today, really ?
I only hear about hope—if only Christians would just vote.

1- Rituals, especially religious rituals without repentance, make God sick.
2- Sacramental abominations on children make God angry.
3- Anyone who curses Israel guarantees God’s promised curse.

America is full of all three.
America is judged.
The Judge’s sentence is underway.

We need preaching, teaching, instruction now for survival in Babylon.

PERSONAL REFLECTION ON THE ECONOMY

November 1, 2024 By Leave a Comment

A surprise when my CPA charged a hundred dollars less to do my business taxes for last year.

Reason ?

My company had less business last year, so the CPA had less work, to do my taxes.

SOON ENOUGH

I sent the information below to friends and family, encouraging them to watch the finale of Little House on the Prairie.

One friend responded with this—
“Birthpangs are stronger moment by moment.
It seems the Lord will come back any minute and as far as I’m concerned, it can’t be soon enough!”

My response—
“Indeed !
And, Faithfulness for the evil days ahead, if He doesn’t come back ‘soon enough’.”

DEFENSE OF TRINITY

October 30, 2024 By Leave a Comment

The Father
The Son
The Holy Spirit

God needs no defense.
We need to read, teach, preach what the Bible says about God.

Church leaders, theologians, have shifted from revering what the Bible says about God to emphasizing by constantly repeating what man says about God.
This is a fact in saying trinity over and over and over and over
—without explaining why they say trinity
—without stopping to tell listeners and readers what trinity means
—without ever telling how they came up with trinity
—without telling who came up with trinity
—without telling when they came up with trinity
—without considering if they didn’t have Tertullian inventing trinity (hundreds of years after Jesus)
—without considering whether anyone would come up with trinity on their own from reading the Bible now
—without telling how trinity helps tell the Gospel
—without telling how trinity helps anyone come to faith in Jesus
—without telling how trinity helps anyone grow closer to Jesus after salvation
—without ever considering that there is no defense of trinity
—without admitting that we have to keep saying trinity is an assumption, hollow, empty.

—without considering what a relief, what a freedom, what a power to experience if you just let go of trinity and preach The Word.*

The Bible is complete as written.
The Bible is self-defending.
The Bible is self-explaining.
The Bible is a “sharp, two-edged sword”.
The Bible is our weapon—our offensive weapon.

God clearly gave us exactly what He knows we need to know about Him, in writing.
God has a VERY DIM VIEW of any additions, deletions, corrections to what He has written.

*Practical suggestion:
Every time trinity might appear in your speaking, teaching, preaching, writing, study, preparation—search for a fitting Bible verse instead.

TWO EVILS ?

October 26, 2024 By Leave a Comment

“The lesser of two evils”

I never have liked that line.
It seems to dampen convictions and weaken resolve.

Why are so many people so eager to constantly give apologetic disclaimers about the best candidate we could possibly hope for, with a record-breaking track record, and a clear, defined commitment to more of the same.

This morning, Peter Rosenberger on afr gave the answer I’ve been waiting for:
“Instead of saying ‘the lesser of two evils’, let’s work to lessen the evil.”

Amen !

“NO INNOCENT CIVILIAN CASUALTIES”

October 26, 2024 By Leave a Comment

“No innocent civilian casualties allowed in the war on terror.”
—–supporters of bad ideas, out of touch with reality, pro-terrorists

Evil, aggressive, blatant brutality against civilians calls for defensive retaliation to take out the enemy.
Israel has done more than any other country to avoid civilian casualties as they proceed to defeat the evil, for Israel’s very survival.

History is filled with consistent, hateful opposition to Israel and the Jews, because they are God’s chosen people, with His fulfilled promise to bring us the Savior of the whole world through them.
God’s promise and warning 3800 years ago has never been rescinded:
To Abraham, “I will bless those who bless you (and your descendants), and I will curse those who curse you (and your descendants). In you (and your descendant, the Savior Jesus) all the nations of the earth will be blessed.”
We will now observe God keeping His Word—HE WILL KEEP HIS WORD !

– – –

+x+x+x+x Where is the same outrage against innocent civilian casualties in the current American civil war over abortion ?
Millions, millions, and millions more ! ! !

We already had a civil war over slavery (America half-slave, half-free)—man’s inhumanity to man—some civilian casualties—many, most casualties by combatants.

The current civil war over abortion (America half-death, half-life) has 100% innocent civilian casualties, by definition.
The current civil war specifically targets killing all innocent civilians involved—not a word of complaint from the above protesters.

Instead—universal defense for militant combatants committing the atrocities against innocent civilians.
Instead—all-out war against defenders of the innocent civilian casualties.
