The time in which we live has become a study in faith. Recent events have not unfolded as most Americans believed they would. Many Americans were convinced that President Trump would be overwhelmingly re-elected. The truth is he was overwhelmingly re-elected but the outcome for Joe Biden was orchestrated through a massive multi-nation conspiracy to overthrow the will of the vast majority of Americans.
China, Germany, Italy, the Vatican, and others were the major players in this brazen assault on America’s 2020 election. Deep State resources were in concert with Dominion voting systems, uplinked to a Leonardo SA satellite owned by the Vatican. Votes were changed in order to ensure a Biden outcome. I will not use the word victory in the same sentence as Biden because he won nothing but a prison sentence if justice prevails. This information has been acquired and is ready to be revealed to the world at the proper time.
The data is available to support these claims. I will not rehearse them here for the simple reason that haters will hate and continue to reject what is clear. I do not need to convince my fellow patriots and believers. They already know what happened and why. I won’t simplify the argument beyond the expression that Jesus frequently used – those who have eyes to see and ears to hear will know the truth. This statement has application in every context of life, not just in the context of saving faith.
For the last couple of months, I have contemplated the place we as a nation has arrived at. The media continue to lie, big pharma continues to maim and murder hundreds of thousands, big tech continues to censor, the United Nations continues to orchestrate the global overthrow of freedom and individual liberty, and wicked moneyed families continue to lurk in the shadows of what they see as a chess match where they believe that they control the board.
Welcome to 2021! If you are like me to any degree, you are not sad to see 2020 go away. Here in Ohio, we have experienced things I never thought possible, most of them instigated by our Governor and his enablers in the state’s senate and house.
Have you considered that 2021 may be a continuation of 2020? What makes us think that once the calendar turns to 2021 things will change? There is certainly nothing magical about a new day or year under the same circumstances. What Americans are experiencing right now will not change unless Americans determine to take appropriate action to change their circumstances.
One thing among many that 2020 has cemented in the consciousness of a growing number of Americans is this – elected representatives at both the state and federal level do not respect those they claim to represent. This disrespect has been decades in the making but has finally been unveiled for even the casual observer to notice. The year 2020 pulled back the curtain, rent every remaining thread of illusion that politicians are not simply wholly owned by corporations, foreign governments, and their financial bag-men otherwise known as lobbyists, notwithstanding their periodic reelection speeches to the contrary.
Critical Race Theory (CRT) is a rabid postmodernism. As you will recall, postmodernism stresses the importance of the individual, his or her “lived experiences,” meaning his or her own reality, regardless of whether or not it is true. In fact, the perception of the individual is an unassailable mountain of truth through which all other experiences must pass through. In other words, according to CRT, truth, as evidenced by reality, is a western construct used to hold back people of color, therefore everyone’s truth is true for them. If this sounds like a different shade of relativism you are correct.
The difficulty we encounter today is that the viewpoints of racists utilizing and hiding behind CRT in order to propagate their racism and hatred are nearly incontestable. Running roughshod over other people’s rights, while maintaining the privilege to do so is utter lunacy. Lunacy codified into law is tyranny.
We are living in a time of revealing. Christians, Conservatives, Libertarians, Patriots, and other freedom and liberty-minded people, should take the time to rejoice. There are many reasons to rejoice today but here is one that some may be missing – we should rejoice because the God-haters, the America-haters, the freedom-haters, the liberty-haters, in short, the satanic, demonic, Leftists among us are finally being exposed on a scale and at a depth never before seen in American history.
Leftists, Marxists, Communists, Democrats, America-haters, and God-haters, all have one thing in common – they serve a demonic master who has completely destroyed their innate ability to reason for the common good. I and many others have said for many years that Leftist politics, whether Marxist or Globalist, is a mental disorder. We are seeing that truth verified like never before.
“…we
must understand that the only road to peace and social justice is
socialism…With the exploiting classes there will never be peace.”[1]
“…it
is necessary to understand that every modern theory of social justice is
ideological. No matter how reasonable or rational it may be, every modern
theory of social justice is the rationalization of the interests of a
particular group or class.”[2]
He
has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to
do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? Micah
6:8[3]
Justice for all! This statement is a great sound bite but
little more than that. Indeed, as it is used today, it is superfluous on the
surface and vacuous once a brief examination is undertaken. However, given that
Americans have been conditioned to respond to sound bite journalism and
half-truths and worse masquerading as fact-based news, this mantra has become a
dangerous, misleading, although effective ploy utilized by those bent on
destroying America.
For justice to be realized by all, at least two things are necessary foundationally: there must be a standard or system of justice available to all that is objective, that is, it is beyond the frailties and double-mindedness of man, and all parties interested in justice for all must recognize this objective standard as guiding principles for determining when justice has been exhibited. In other words, there must be law and the rule of law must prevail over all well-intentioned and/or misguided arguments based on emotions, feelings, or the ideology-du-jour.
In order for true justice to prevail and guide any people
in their shared lives, justice must be impartial, proportionally related to
behavior so that each individual receives his or her due, whether that due is
reward or punishment. This must be in accord with the objective standard agreed
upon as the guiding principles mentioned above.
America was founded upon Christian principles. Therefore, God’s moral law has undergirded the guiding principles of this republic even before the American Revolution. The Mayflower Compact, the first governing document of English settlers to America makes this clear. The Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, the US Constitution and Bill of Rights follow suit in recognizing the God of the Christian Bible as Creator, Sustainer, Lord, and Law Giver. His immutable and timeless law is recognized as the foundation for America’s laws.
John Locke said, “The end of law is not to abolish or
restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom.” President John F. Kennedy
recognized that truth when he stated during his inaugural address that: “The rights of man come not
from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.” Sir William Blackstone, the
acclaimed English jurist and scholar of jurisprudence, wrote that:
“Man … must
necessarily be subject to the laws of his Creator…This will of his Maker is
called the law of nature…This law of nature…is of course superior to any
other…No human laws are of any validity, if contrary to this: and such of
them as are valid derive all their force…from this original.”[4]
Additionally, justice has many different applications and
therefore must be understood within several different contexts, among them: commercial,
vindictive, retributive, punitive, and remedial justice.[5]
Commercial justice defines voluntary relationships, while vindictive,
retributive, punitive, and remedial justice defines involuntary relationships.
Theologian and Philosopher E. Calvin Beisner, offers this explanation:
Commercial justice requires
that if we desire what another has, we must offer something he prefers in
exchange for it, not acquire it by force or fraud – whether directly (picking
his pocket) or indirectly (using a law to take from him and give to ourselves
or others). Violations of commercial justice by fraud, theft, or violence bring
punitive and vindictive justice into play as correctives.
When one person violates
another’s rights (which are defined by justice), the injury is to be redressed
by vindictive, retributive, and punitive justice. Vindictive justice judges the victim right in his cause (1 Kings
8:32; Deuteronomy 25:1). Retributive justice
(from the Latin re, or “back,” and tribuere, “to pay”) requires the
offender to restore the victim to his status before the offense (Exodus
22:1-15). Punitive justice applies a
penalty to the offender as punishment for violating the law (Romans 13:4). In
crimes against property (theft or destruction), punitive and retributive
justice combine in the offender’s restoring what was taken or destroyed
(retribution, also called restitution) plus some additional amount
(punishment).
Sometimes someone harms
another accidently. Then, remedial
justice requires the one who caused the harm to share the cost equally with
the victim (Exodus 21:35) but adds no penalty. But if he is negligent, he must
be punished by bearing the whole loss (Exodus 21:33-34, 36), restoring the
victim fully to his former state at his own expense.[6]
In the current climate of identity politics, gender
dysphoria, and Marxian and Critical Theories run amok, these requirements for
justice appear to be out of reach. That leaves us with a bare naked power grab
by certain people, or cast in Darwinian terms, a fight for the survival of the
strongest, where might makes right. In America today that means political power
financed by globalists who espouse anti-American ideologies. The ability to
force people to comply against their wishes and of the common good has defined
tyranny throughout the ages. Sadly, much of the American Protestant church has
been deceived and is supporting the multi-pronged Luciferian lunacy of the
leftists and other assorted God haters.
Aiding
and Abetting the Perversion of Justice
Recently the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) abdicated
their responsibility to proclaim God’s truth by adopting Critical Theory and
Intersectionality as guiding principles. Critical Theory and especially Critical
Race Theory assume what they set out to prove. It is at best, circular
reasoning on steroids. What it is at worse is a system for justifying racism
against whites. If that statement makes you nervous, you are probably
influenced by the now non-stop drumbeat of the white supremacy, white privilege
nonsense perpetrated by Critical Theory race baiters embedded in the Southern
Baptist Convention as well as many other denominations.
Critical Theory has already conquered numerous universities
as evidenced by the growing number of white privilege courses being offered to
students. The reason there is no uproar over this insanity is because college
freshman have already been indoctrinated with the socialist, leftist, Marxist
global citizenship lies such that by the time they enter college they have
become victims of mass mind control that makes the CIA blush over its
effectiveness.
Alex Newman, writing in the February 4, 2019 edition of the
New American says:
More than 20 years ago,
Hillary Clinton published a book called It
Takes a Village. The key takeaway from the book is that the raising of
children needs to be viewed as a collective responsibility, and that the
government must take a much more active role. More recently, MSNBC host Melissa
Harris-Perry did a segment going even further. “We have to break through our
private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their
families, and recognize that kids belong to the whole community…Of course that
idea is not new. In 1932, American Communist Party leader William Z. Foster, in
his book Toward Soviet America, outlined
similar goals. “Among the elementary measures the American Soviet government
will adopt to further the cultural revolution are the following: the schools,
colleges and universities will be coordinated and grouped under the National
Department of Education and its state and local branches,” he wrote. “The
studies will be revolutionized, being cleansed of religious, patriotic and
other features of bourgeois ideology. The students will be taught on the basis
of Marxian dialectic materialism, internationalism and the general ethics of
the new Socialist society…Indeed dictators have long understood that shaping
the minds of children is the surest method of keeping power. As Nationalist
Socialist (Nazi) tyrant Adolph Hitler put it, “He alone, who owns the youth,
gains the future”…Education, it turns out, is the secret weapon of those
seeking to build what they frequently refer to in public as a New World Order.
And they not only admit it, they boast of it in public. The very future of the
United States as a free and self-governing republic hinges on the outcome of
this battle.[7]
According to the Socialists-Communists in the U.S. Senate
and House, as well as Socialists-Communists in every level of government and
even in the U.S. Judiciary, American’s who believe in the rule of law, in the
God-given rights of Americans, in liberty and freedom, in limited government,
and State’s rights to tell the U.S. Government to “take a hike,” are prime
candidates for re-education. That means many Americans must be indoctrinated
with an ideology that sees religion, by which is meant true Christianity, and
patriotism, by which is meant nationalism, as “bourgeois.”
The questions I have for all those Protestant and SBC
leaders and the growing number of confessing Socialist-Communist Evangelicals
such as Tim Keller and David Platt, is this: How do you legitimately espouse
such demonic nonsense and think you are being true to the gospel of Jesus
Christ? How can you adopt Critical Theory, Critical Race Theory,
Intersectionality, Social Justice, homosexual and even transgender propaganda
and believe you are remaining faithful to the Scriptures? What people who hide
behind and fly the flag of “inclusion” are really doing is waving the white
flag of surrender to culture and the demonic hordes that have carefully crafted
American culture for the last one hundred plus years. People who believe they
are Christians and who see no conflict with their support of Critical Theory,
Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality, Big Gay, and every other interest that
sets itself against the truth of God, have become useful idiots for the enemies
of Christ and of the freedom and liberties we enjoy as Americans.
Founding
Father John Adams was right when he wrote in a letter to the Massachusetts
Third Division in 1798, that: “Our constitution was made only for a moral and
religious people, it is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” This
explains why the Socialist-Communists in our governments, their allies in the
media, and Big Gay hate the rule of law and hate any reference to the Founding
Fathers and our governing documents: they are not a moral people and they will
not abide by any moral code that calls their behavior immoral, wicked, and
evil.
I encourage
every freedom loving American to begin to tell the people described above that
we will not tolerate their continued attack upon this nation’s principles and
follow that up with action. What is happening in your local community will
determine the necessary action items for you. I also suggest you utilize your
network of people to grow an organization of resistance to the creeping
Socialism-Communism in our governments and in our churches. If you will not
stand up and fight back now it may be too late in the very near future.
