“. . . , I will repay, says the Lord.”
The line before says,
“Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord.”
So, what about all the psalms in the Bible where David lets it rip and verbally crushes his enemies, graphically so?
Actually, two things to remember in those psalms:
He’s telling God all about his trouble with his enemies.
He’s telling God to tear his enemies to pieces—that is God’s sovereignty—His prerogative.
By the end of the psalm David is thanking and praising God.
Before you think or talk about it, find and read those psalms directly—there are several.

What about all the times in the Bible where God commands the total annihilation of wicked nations?
What about America, the most God-inspired and God-blessed and most free nation in history—freedom gained by American Patriots killing British soldiers?
What about the sacrifice of thousands in Normandy that started the end of Nazi tyranny?
What about the outright destruction of hundreds of thousands of people over 75 years ago with ‘the bomb’—to stop the religion-crazed Japanese worshipping their emperor with kamikaze fervor (destined to cause ten times the loss of life)?
What about our Constitutional second amendment to stop a wayward government with guns?

What has changed ?
God hasn’t changed !
The Constitution hasn’t changed !
The price of freedom hasn’t changed !
The enemies of freedom haven’t changed !
The evil forces, in America today, driving evil people, in America today, hell-bent on destroying our freedom to enslave us, in America today, haven’t changed !

What has changed?
We have.
American Christians and conservatives are continuously constrained to not advocate or condone or initiate violence.
Millions of law-abiding Americans with guns are willing and able to take back our country and restore our freedom.
But what has changed?
The evil forces devoted to our demise have gained control so rapidly, that most good guys simply don’t know what to do now—except having a shootout when armed government officials show up at their door—to avoid unlawful arrest or re-education camps or languishing in jail indefinitely like the January 6 detainees.

What if . . .?
What if the election in a few weeks, and the impact of the election (immediately or in two months, depending on the results), what if that does not restore America?
What if good people in government do not have the backbone to stand and act—and yes, once again, “pledge their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor”?

There will be widespread bloodshed in the streets across this land.
– – –
Leadership and organization for a legitimate freedom-restoration revolution has been silenced by surveillance, picking off good people from their families in their homes and on the streets, without reprisal or redress.
+Without reprisal—no one is there to stop the free reign of unlawful arrests, that are more frequent now—stop them with force.
+Without redress—constitutional process of justice for Americans is replaced with dictator tactics of abuse without fair trial.

Back to the title—vengeance belongs to God.
What about our discomfort when God exercises His vengeance?
What about our struggle in recent years over the price of freedom, when it may again require violence to defeat evil to stay free?
We have become too much dependent on elections alone to maintain our freedom here at home.
Elections have accomplished that up to now, when combined with moral solidarity and prayer to the God who “made and preserved us a nation.” We are not there anymore.
We have depended on the government military to defend freedom abroad.
Overnight, our military has been stripped of leadership ready to go-to-bat with whatever it takes to defeat evil and keep us free.

It has never been more important to exercise the second amendment to take back control of a wayward government.
It has never been more difficult to exercise the second amendment to take back control of a wayward government.
We must remember, and apply, what the founding fathers publicly and repeatedly declared—dependence on Divine Providence for wisdom, words, and engagement.
