“I’m from the government, and I’m here to help? you.”
“I’m running for office.
After I am elected, I will be ‘from the government’, and I will ‘help’ you with all the money that the government has.
I will make your life better.
I will make life fair.
I will make everyone have an equal life.
I will listen to the minorities screaming for everything equal, and I will make their lives better.
I will make sure that people with money participate in getting people without money to have enough money.
Support my cause.
Support my campaign.”
And many people (Amercans, Christians, everyone who is too busy), looking for easier, looking for answers, are falling for lies just because they are uncomfortable before an election.

Unfortunately, history does not look favorably on socialist promises of utopia.
“Any government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take everything you have.”
Governments are more likely to do the latter, because they are made of people who gain power, and then—all previous promises turn into oppressive power.
“Power corrupts—absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
When human nature takes on power, it’s not pretty, ever.
“I would rather not have my wolves in sheep’s clothing.”

How about wolves in spiritual sheep’s clothing !
“I’m from God, and I’m here to help you.”
The Catholic Church played this out, for all history to see (and learn?—not hardly).
The church started with the real promises from Jesus of forgiveness and eternal life.
Then the church gained power, and more power, and control.
The Gospel message of forgiveness went for sale, and the money and the power combined to absolute power, to absolute corruption.
The Catholic Church could, and did, eliminate (kill, burn at the stake) anyone who disagreed with their teaching or their power.
Today in Amerca, the political and the spiritual overlap, as they always do in spite of attempts to separate church and state.
If Christians do not get involved in America NOW, we will suffer the consequences (like everyone else) by those dedicated to our destruction.
● BAD – “Evil abounds (in the government) when good men (in the church) do nothing.”
● SCAREY – What will the government do next, while the church repeats history ?
● DANGEROUS – Government grows more powerful, and churches lose spiritual power.
● TERRIBLE – Government is out of line with our Biblical Constitution, and the church is not leading us back to our spiritual roots.
● TERRORIZING – Government will do anything ‘necessary’ to control everything and everyone, and the church contributes by compliance.
