July Was Not A Good Month For The Biden

What did we find out this month while not watching the legacy press? Well - The Biden crime family set up 20 LLC's to be able to take in money from foreign governments and foreign businesses. Sixteen of those were set up when the Big Guy was Vice President. That seems to have been their only business purpose. 

During that time 6 major banks filed over 170 Suspicious Activity Reports (SAR's) relating to bank accounts from those shell companies. SAR's are rare and were created by the government to help catch money laundering, tax evasion and human trafficking. In one example a Biden account that normally kept a balance of $10,000 received a 3 million dollar transfer from a Chinese bank, all of which was then rerouted to multiple other bank accounts within 24 hours. 

A Burisma official said that he has multiple texts and 2 recorded phone conversations with the Big Guy as an insurance policy in case he ever got in trouble for his shady dealings with him. He said he didn't think the money could be traced because it was distributed through so many accounts. 

The Biden's took in at least 17 million dollars from Ukraine, China, Romania and other counties. In one deal with Ukraine Hunter received 5 million and the Big Guy received 5 million. 

Devon Archer revealed that when he was a business partner with Hunter at Rosemont Capitol the Big Guy was brought in on their business calls two dozen times. Archer is currently in hiding until he testifies before a Congressional committee next week. 

A transcript of a recorded phone conversation between Hunter and a Chinese businessman shows Hunter shaking down the guy for money and to emphasize the point he says that his father is sitting right next to him. 

We found out from two IRS whistle blowers who were in charge of investigating Hunter that they had recommended he should be charged with multiple felonies for willful tax evasion (and for claiming as a  business expense things like flying business interns across the country for the sole purpose of having sex).

Hunter's sweetheart plea deal (he was going to plead guilty to 2 misdemeanor tax charges in exchange for total immunity from all other charges including multiple felony charges) fell through after the judge for his case found out that someone from Hunter's law office called the court representing themselves as someone from the prosecutor's office directing that certain evidence against Hunter not be looked at. 

On the cognitive side of life we saw that a shorter set of steps were brought in to make it easier for the President to enter Marine One, but he slipped on those steps as well and bumped his head on the way out. His failure as Commander in Chief to salute those marines has also become more frequent.

During a meeting with the President of Israel Biden closed his eyes, nodded his head and mumbled in coherently for a while. 

In a short statement to reporters the President blurted out something that was a State secret.

And finally it was revealed that the Biden has so far spent only $17,000 toward his re-election, which either means the switch is in or his party expects to produce as many votes as needed, so why campaign.

Intelligence Agencies - Tools of the Deep State

Remember the Whitmere kidnapping plot in Michigan, where half of those involved were federal agents, including the people that suggested what to do, provided the transportation and financed everything? Remember January 6, where over 100 federal agents were in the crowd that entered the Capitol and where the people that situated themselves at various key spots to direct crowds into the building and the people that removed barriers into the Capitol grounds to make entrance easier and the people or person who unlocked magnetic doors to the Capitol from inside and the people who climbed up to smash windows were not arrested and jailed and deprived of their constitutional rights like a thousand others, many of whom are still rotting in the D.C. gulag for trespassing?

Well, now this week at a trial for one of the Proud Boys leaders it has been disclosed that a person employed by the FBI wrote a manual about how to send a large group of people into the Capitol to occupy it. They then gave this manual to a girl friend of one of the Proud Boys leaders who then emailed it to that guy without telling him where it came from or who wrote it. Then at his trial they used his possession of that manual on his computer as their key piece of evidence that the Proud Boys had gone to Washington on January 6 to occupy the Capitol. In a regular court of law this would be considered entrapment but because this is a federal case all the usual rights and protections a citizen has are thrown out the window.

The Proud Boys are ex-military and ex-law enforcement who organized themselves to help protect people who were being physically assaulted by anarchist groups such as Antifa. This was a big problem during the Trump years, especially in Washington D.C. and that is the reason they were there in January. It was interesting though that Antifa disappeared from the scene on January 5. It is also interesting that as far as we know the feds have done very little if anything to infiltrate Antifa or to bring those true homegrown terrorists to justice. If I was a betting man I would place a large wager that Antifa is indeed chock full of federal agents who most likely help organize, plan, provide pallet loads of bricks during riots and finance their activities. Activities that have cost hundreds of millions of dollars of damage, thousands of injuries and many deaths.

Were you aware that the FBI has been spying on Hunter Biden and the Biden family at least since 2017? That they had the Hunter Biden laptops, which implicated Hunter, his uncles and his father in many illegal activities since 2019? That they knew from the git go that those laptops were authentic?

Did you know not only did the FBI know there was no collusion between Trump and Russia but that they and the CIA were actually the ones involved in creating documents and feeding suspect information to Trump campaign people to make it appear so?

Were you aware that Jeffrey Epstein was paid tons of money by the feds? That his main job was to get very important people to go to one of his islands or luxury homes, where they were provided with underage girls for sex and parties where drugs were provided, all of which was secretly filmed? That the FBI has guest logs, videos and other incriminating evidence of it all which they have refused to release? It would be reasonable to conclude that top people in the intelligence agencies are taking orders from someone and that the FBI is engaged in political blackmail.

Did you know that all the 3 letter intelligence agencies were actively involved in regulating what information can and cannot be conveyed via most of the social media platforms via daily engagement on back channels with those sites? This would include information placement or availability on Google, what you can or cannot post on Facebook and who gets to see those posts, what you can twit about on Twitter or what videos you can post on YouTube. The FBI and others have also created organizations that are used to comment on or to fact check information which is then picked up by the liberal press to use as a basis for comment. 

Take for example the article Sy Hersh just wrote about a CIA and U.S. Navy operation to set explosives on the Nord Stream II pipeline 6 months in advance of the Russian/Ukraine invasion, which were then ignited to create the world's worst man made ecological disaster in order to cause great energy hardship on Western Europe as a means to have them put pressure on Russia. Basically this was an act of war against another country without legally required congressional approval by the Biden administration. This story was ignored by legacy media and met instead with hit pieces against Mr. Hersh written by those FBI sponsored outlets, which could then be used to assure the media and us that there is nothing behind the curtain.

And finally, were you aware that the Patriot Act, which was voted in after 9/11 and later renewed, gives governmental agencies almost unlimited permission to gather as much information on you as they can? Somewhere there is a log on your computer activities, your phone conversations, your banking transactions, your credit card transactions, all creating a profile that could possible be used against you by the wrong people. Merge in the abilities of artificial intelligence and your identity could even be duplicated.

Big government needs to have control of everything and thus they have to stripe away all of your most basic and sacred God given rights. I'm not sure if big government is using the intelligence agencies as a tool for that purpose or if it is actually the intelligence agencies who control big government. Either way, we must demand transparency in the activities of those agencies. We must demand that our press actually searches for the truth instead of taking orders from third parties. And we must demand that corrupt leaders be removed and Godly men and women step forward so that a true house cleaning can take place.

Brunson v Adams

This Friday, 1/6/23, the Supreme Court reviewed Brunson V Adams et.al. If 4 of the 9 Justices agree it will be placed on the Court docket to be heard. We will find out tomorrow morning if it will proceed.

This case refers to the actions of Congress exactly 2 years earlier on 1/6/21. On that date Congress met to vote on accepting each State's delegation of electors who would vote to confirm the results of the 2020 elections. Objections to the results of the election had been made earlier by over 100 Representatives and there were 1000 sworn affidavits of election impropriety. Congress had the opportunity as proscribed by law to send things back to the States (or at least to the States where most of the claims of election fraud had been made) for a 10 day period of election investigation.

The lawsuit contends that because they failed to do so even in the face of tremendous national doubt concerning the integrity of the election, they violated their oath to the Constitution and thus were guilty of treason. To be clear, the lawsuit is not whether the actual results of the election were fraudulent but whether Congress failed in their duty to protect the interest of the country by failing to use an option set forth in case there was legitimate concern about election interference. The relief requested of the Court is the removal from power of Biden, Harris and every politician who voted to accept the 2020 results, including Vice President Pence who was overseeing the process that day. In addition it would ban each of those people from ever serving in elected office again.

Even though this is the longest of long shots the story of how the Brunson lawsuit even got this far is amazing. As the suit was making its way through the different levels of courts the Brunsons (who are not lawyers) were contacted by a clerk from the Supreme Court with advice on how to correctly formulate the paperwork for the high court's purposes. The suit rose to the Circuit Court level who had 90 days to respond to the paperwork filed with them and because they failed to respond, on day 91 the Supreme Court fast tracked the case. So there must be at least one Justice who wants an open hearing before the Nation and the Court.

Speculation is that some Justices were horrified as more and more information started coming out about election interference by certain agencies of the government (think 3 letter intelligence) and their possible ties to foreign governments. If so and if this lawsuit goes forward the pressure on the Justices and their families safety will be intense. Pray for them.

upside down world

Someone gave a speech to the nation the other day (which I watched, so these are my own opinions). You know, a typical American political speech - dark red background, military men standing behind him, angry tone from start to finish with both fists up in the air, devoted to only one subject - dehumanizing his opposition.  He said during that speech and in the weeks prior to that speech that anyone supporting President Trump (meaning me!) was:

1. A threat to our Constitution

2. A threat to our Democracy

3. A fascist/nazi

4. An extremist

5. A traitor 

6. A domestic terrorist

7. An insurrectionist

8. A white surpremist

Wow! Never in my 72 years have I heard or seen a speech like that (except in newsreels).  Here I am, a white, church going believer in Jesus, who loves his country and hates corruption in government. I want an honest press, an internet that doesn't censor my views or restrict my access to information, free but fair elections, secure borders, an end to the killing of babies, the right to refuse being injected with something I have serious doubts about, the right to talk about and demonstrate against government corruption and the right to say positive things about President Trump and his policies without being shunned, attacked by trolls or told that I'm worshiping a man instead of God. 

But that is the world I am living in. The politician who says that I am a threat to the Constitution fears the guarantees of the 1st amendment giving me rights of religion, free speech, free press and open assembly.

The gathering at the Capitol of a couple of hundred thousand unarmed people in Washington on January 6 who believed with good cause that an election had been stolen came to support a possible legal option that Vice President Pence could refer the electoral college delegates back to the States for a limited period of time so the elections in certain states could be audited. As the crowd marched to the Capitol, families, ministers, grandmas, grandpas, vets, the vast majority being the heart and soul of middle America, sang religious and patriotic songs and came to show solidarity with President Trump and with the democratic process. They were exercising their basic 1st Amendment rights.

President Trump suggested before hand to Speaker Pelosi (it was her call) that National Guard be called up and stationed at the Capitol so there would not be any problems with the large crowd. Pelosi rejected the suggestion and also did nothing to beef up Capitol police forces. We now know that FBI and other government agents were actively involved with the small number of anarchists who arrived at the Capitol prior to the crowds to remove barriers, open doors, break into windows and encourage crowds (who had only come to stand outside) to enter into the Capitol building. Lies were then spread that 6 policemen had been killed by the rioters.

Someone wanted this to happen. Someone wanted to label this "an insurrection". Someone wanted to label their political opposition as extremists, traitors and homegrown terrorists (now known as the greatest threat to our democracy).        

Someone wanted to put in jail thousands of innocent protestors who had opposing political views, waive their 5th Amendment rights of due process and 6th Amendment rights to confront opposing witnesses and to have a lawyer. Hundreds of people without any prior criminal records were arrested, thrown into filthy prisons, asked to sign false statements, put into solitary confinement and denied the right to make any public comments on their case. Many are now still in prison. The FBI has a list of a thousand more they are looking at. Others who were at Washington that day have been tagged on a watch list and cannot fly without being pulled aside. This is America today.

The politician who says that I am a threat to the Constitution fears my 2nd amendment right to bear arms and then mocks me this week by saying what I really need if I'm worried about government abusing my rights is an F-15.

The politician who says I am a threat to the Constitution can for political reasons have the FBI violate my 4th amendment rights of not having an illegal search and seizure by sending a swat team to knock on my door in the middle of the night, haul me outside in my underwear without first showing me a warrant and then take my cell phone and computers to obtain any information they want.

The politician who says I am a threat to Democracy and to the Constitution can violate Congressional rules by forming a select committee without participation by minority leadership as required to investigate January 6. In this "investigation" there has been select editing and misrepresenting of the facts, no presentation from the other side, no opposition to anything presented and 5th Amendment right of due process and no 6th Amendment right for President Trump to have attorneys or to confront his opponents. Political opponents have been subpoenaed without their 5th and 6th Amendment rights and threatened with jail if they refuse to cooperate.

The politician who says I am a threat to Democracy and the Constitution can send the FBI to invade Presidents Trump's home and seize documents under a pretext so lame and twisted it would make a pretzel blush. And the mustard on top is that everything we are allowed to see is heavily redacted because the government/FBI, insists on it. 

Now in a true "Democracy" there would not be a government press who would stay silent about all of this or who exhibits zero curiosity about any wrong doing from a certain party or who actively pushes the agenda of a single party. There would not be an internet that fact checks, demontizes, bans posts, tweets, videos and internet searches about certain subjects, such as a certain election, a certain laptop, a certain virus, a certain insurrection, a certain mental incapacity, financial deals between a certain family and a certain Asian country and a certain Ukrainian politician. You would almost think that Orange Man bad 24/7 for 6 years straight was a strategy planned and directed on a daily basis by certain people who have control of the government press.

Someone gave a speech to the nation the other day. The powers behind the someone fear the Constitution because they fear you and me. They want total control but our God given freedoms and divinely inspired rights get in their way. Those with me and you are way more than those with them. That is why they cannot allow any proof of their cheating in the last elections to come to light. That is why they continue to implement ways to cheat. That is why they call us fascists, traitors, terrorists, extremists, insurrectionists and the greatest threat to the soul of this nation.

Here is a poem I wrote after the speech.

  

The rantings of a man gone mad

well, maybe just demented

his grasp of facts was rather sad

all truth got circumvented


The lectern's framing - dark - and red

two soldiers in it's shadow

his wife led in a man half dead

just given an espresso


He coughed to clear his muddled mind

then barked and pounded sand

that we were Fascist of some kind

(though he wore the armband)


A doctor led him from the stage

his days expire soon

he'll miss the dawning of an age

when light will flood the room

Can Yoga Be A Christian Activity?

Abstain from every form of evil (I Thessalonians 5:22)

Idol: 1 - an object of extreme devotion - 2 - a representation or symbol of an object of worship (Merriman-Webster)

Idols are representations of evil spirits. Evil Spirits reside in idols, not just for the opportunity to be worshiped but also because it gives them access and PERMISSION to demonize those that come to worship before those idols. 

Evil spirits are the power behind all occult power. Expressing interest in anything associated with the occult gives evil spirits access and PERMISSION to demonize those that do so.

Examples of things that attract evil spirits that want to demonize us are horror movies, movies representing the occult, certain types of music, books or games promoting witchcraft or other occult activity, objects used to obtain information through the spirit realm (ouija boards, horoscopes, crystals etc.) or objects that were dedicated to evil spirits or were even just in the presence of evil spirit activity. All likely will have evil spirits close by and our participation will have given them access and PERMISSION to demonize us.

Demonized does not mean possessed. But it does mean there are certain areas of soul and body that evil spirits will attack and grab onto because a person (usually without their knowledge) has given evil spirits a LEGAL RIGHT to do so. This is true for Christians as well. Evil spirits can affect a person's physical and mental health. I am also convinced that a Christian who has been demonized has also suffered greatly in their ability to be able to discern the activity of evil spirits in them as well as their ability to be able to discern the leading of the Holy Spirit for their lives. 

Which leads us to the subject of Yoga. Is it possible for yoga to be a Christian activity? Can someone use traditional yoga exercises and positions and substitute Christian meanings and meditations so as to not attract evil spirits and give them PERMISSION to demonize?

Let's think this through. Is there anything wrong with taking time to engage in different types of stretching or to learn to control one's breathing or to release to God any pent up anger, frustration or unforgiveness?  I would say no. Those are all good things which will give glory to God and will benefit a person physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

Is this what yoga does or is that even what Christian yoga does? Well, my first question would be - Why is "yoga" which describes an occult activity, in the description? And my next would be - Does Christian yoga use any of the same body positions, vocabulary, chants and hand positions as does traditional yoga and does it direct people to empty their minds in the same way traditional yoga does?

Yoga is part and parcel with the Hindu religion which recognizes 330 million gods, all of which are representations of a hierarchy of evil spirits, weak to powerful. Each position in yoga, body, hand, as well as words spoken, represents and thus worships a different Hindu deity and there are spiritual reasons why each position or word are done or said in a certain way. Evil spirits will be attracted to places where traditional yoga forms are practiced and people who participate in those forms are (even without their knowledge) giving those evil spirits PERMISSION and a LEGAL RIGHT to demonize them.

The underlying principle yoga is based on is an anti Christian idea that there is spiritual energy at the base of a person's spine and through yoga exercises that energy travels up the spine and is released through certain specific spots in the body. A key aspect in yoga is at the end where a person either sits or lays in the "dead body" position and then opens their mind to where ever those spiritual forces will lead (or what the yoga master might suggest). Frankly, this is an invitation for spiritual deception. Indeed, a person's body and mind may feel relaxed and refreshed right after doing yoga but they have carved out a tiny hole in their soul where an unholy seed has been planted.

God's way for man to operate in the spiritual is totally different. And God is a jealous God. He does not want there to be any false gods before Him and He does not want us to entertain any evil spirits. Instead by the shed blood of Jesus He has given us authority over all unclean spirits.

My prayer (if you currently are or have in the past been involved with yoga) is that the Holy Spirit will open your eyes and guide you to what is true and will then show you how to repent and how to renounce your activity in it. If you're not sure you agree with what I've written at least take some time and have an honest conversation with God, search the Word and tell Him you only want to know what is true and that you are willing to change if you have been deceived. 

Repenting and renouncing are key factors in taking away the legal rights of evil spirits to have a hold on you. But you may also need to take other actions to be truly set free. Find a book which talks about deliverance from evil spirits. They usually have a section for the reader which will lead you through areas to confess and the steps needed to be set free. If after doing that you still sense there are more evil spirits around then find a Christian friend or minister with wisdom who understands the spirit world so they can walk you through anything else needed to set you free.

And, if reading this essay has caused you to get very angry - that's a good sign you are probably demonized.

Resetting The Great Reset

If I shut up the heavens so there is no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people, and my people who are called by my name - humble themselves - and pray - and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land. II Chronicles 7:13-14

What if you found out that Covid 19 was created in a lab in China, funding to do so was provided by the United States, and people working with the CCP had it intentionally released in China during their New Year's knowing that it would then spread to the West for a 4 fold purpose?

1. Kill and sicken a lot of people.

2. Harm national economies.

3. Enable governments to lock down and control populations.

4. Discourage in person voting in order to utilize mail-in-ballot cheating.

What if you found out that the same people also developed other deadly diseases for the same purposes and have or will if given the chance release them before the midterm elections?

What if you found out that the same people have plans to remake societies and reduce world populations through diseases, wars, famines, abortions, drugs, vaccines and a multitude of other means? 

What if you found out that cyber warfare was conducted against our election system during the 2020 elections (and before) using programming originally developed by the CIA for foreign election interference and that IP addresses were traced back to China, Italy, Pakistan, Iran and other countries?

What if you found out that entry into the Capitol building and riots of January 6 were planned by prominent people in government who want to silence and eliminate all future opposition?

What if you found out that Antifa and BLM riots were financed from abroad as well as domestically?

What if you found out that the training, rise and advancement of a certain American politician was financed by both domestic and foreign entities who wanted to use him to weaken American prominence in the world in order to create their ideal of a one world government, ultimately controlled by them?

What if you found out that same former politician is actually still calling the shots for his party and that he has much grander visions for himself?

What if you found out there was a blueprint many years in the making for implementing (among others) the goals below?

1. Control Academia to influence the thoughts of each generation.

2. Use the platform of Arts and Entertainment to do the same.

3. Neuter the influence of the Church and marginalize Christians.

4. Destabilize society by redefining Family and by eliminating traditional moral values.

5. Destabilize society by redefining language and rewriting history.

6. Destabilize society by stoking racial tensions and creating grievance groups. 

7. Elect/appoint judges who will do what they are told.

8. Elect Secretary of State and Attorney General officials in order to control elections.

9. Elect District Attorneys in large cities to weaken the rule of law in order to destabilize society.

10. Control Politicians through financial incentives and compromise as many as possible using sex, drugs and threats against family, business and friends.

11. Own and control the press in order to influence public opinion. This includes newspapers and magazines, network news, cable news, popular internet platforms and fact checkers who will censor or mock any opposing viewpoints.

12. Place people of like mind into all areas of government bureaucracy.

13. Place people of like mind into leadership positions in the justice system, including FBI, CIA, and DOJ.

14. Place people of like mind into leadership positions in the Military in order to weaken the Military.

15. Create a cashless economy to better control and monitor all financial transactions.

16. Monitor the movement and communications of the entire population.

17. Eliminate any opposition by altering and getting rid of our basic principle of Free Speech.

18. Eliminate any opposition by disarming the population.

19. Increase the size of Government and make people dependent on Government spending and handouts.

20. Increase the availability and use of drugs to reduce, weaken and neuter the population.

21. Create Open Borders in order to redefine National Identify.

22. Submit the U.S. to International Courts and International Regulatory Agencies. 

What if you found out there are rich, powerful and influential people who actually worship Lucifer, make blood sacrifices to him, traffic in young human lives and who believe that the time is near for the Antichrist to appear and that they will rule with him at the top of the food chain in a new one world government?

What if you found out that some politicians or judges you thought were good guys (or women) were actually not on the side you thought they were?

If you have not figured out the above already then what are you going to do when it all comes to light, your world turns upside down and you find out the depth of the evil being practiced and the extent to which you've been lied to? I've always wondered how otherwise smart and good people could be so blind as to line up to receive the mark of the beast. But the last few years have shown me how easy it will be.

The good news is that this is not yet God's appointed time for the judgment of God upon this nation, the rapture of the Church and the arrival of the Antichrist. It appears God has heard the humble appeals to heaven of millions of believers. This will be instead a God ordained time to push back the evil agenda, to pour out His glory and salvation to multiple hundreds of millions of people, to call the prodigals home, to renew, reform and restore America to its Christian roots and to separate the sheep and the goat nations.

All that has been taken away will be restored.

Satan had an announced timeline for 2030. The election of 2016 set back that timeline. In order to secure the 2020 election the enemies of this country made many mistakes which people noticed and which opened the door to finding out how our elections have been manipulated and how the Deep State controls the media, both political parties and the intelligence community. The 2020 election steal was actually a gift of God because many bad actors are now known and whistle blowers and moles have come forward and provided plans, documents, audio and video evidence that will be used to bring forth justice. 

Speaking from the viewpoint of an intercessor I know that the battle for this time has already been won against the evil spiritual principalities and powers over this country. Satan has lost his command and control structure in the air. We are now at a point where the enemy suspects it will be defeated and is throwing out everything it can to hold ground. The days ahead will be interesting with much prayer and action still needed, but our victory is assured. 

God has heard from heaven. He will forgive the sins of this nation and of all who sincerely call upon Him. He will heal our land and the lands of other countries who have also humbled themselves and prayed. Wait for it. It will not be long. God is about to do the unexpected. To Him be the glory!

Life

Last Friday was a good day. A day I had longed, hoped and prayed for but was never sure I would actually see. A day marking a major victory against dark principalities and powers in the high places over this country.

Early June of this year Jackie and I celebrated being married for fifty years. When we met both of us came from Catholic families but she had a relationship with Jesus and I was an atheist. It had been my plan to avoid having any arguments about politics or religion but here it was several months after our wedding and we were having a Sunday dinner with her mom, dad, nine brothers and sisters and a couple of brothers-in-law.

When dinner was over and everybody was sitting around the table a couple of Jackie's cousins dropped by. Their mom was very involved in the Right To Life group in Kalamazoo and they had just finished helping her stuff some mailers. So the discussion around the table became about abortion and then switched to religion. It was Jackie's oldest brother (the other atheist) and me against the crowd and it began to get a little heated. Jackie of course had been praying for me and now she was screaming to God in her prayer - "What are you doing?"

Well, it turns out God does know what He is doing and this argument turned out to be a catalyst for my surrendering my life to Jesus and being filled with His Holy Spirit a few months later at the end of November that year. The following January the Supreme Court ruled on Roe Verses Wade and the evil of killing a human life while still in the womb has been heavy on my heart ever since.

In fact for me, someone who majored in Political Science and minored in History, a candidate's stance on the life and rights of the unborn and their willingness to fight for those lives and rights outweighs everything else when I consider whom to vote for, including economics. I believe that if we stand firm on this God will give us guidance and clarity on other issues and will even bless our stupidity when we miss the mark.

So much about following the will of God revolves around core principles. The core principle here is that inside a pregnant woman is a unique individual who has a growing body with a soul and a spirit. That child already has a God given destiny that awaits him or her in time. It matters not how that child is conceived or if indeed it is even wanted by the parent. In life there are struggles and tragedies but God is loving and He longs to pour out His love and healing to all: mother, child, family and community.

The Supreme Court ruling reverses a gigantic self imposed curse over our nation which will greatly weaken the spiritual forces that are trying to destroy this land. The blood sacrifices they desire are starting to end and now the battle can be waged State by State. Watch now for great moves of the Holy Spirit which will transform what are known as the seven mountains of influence: Church, Family, Academia, Government, Media, Business and Finance, Arts and Entertainment.

For over 49 years I have been standing on the ramparts, ready to call out the advance of the enemy or the coming of the great King. For over 49 years I have laid before my Lord the bodies, souls and spirits of many prodigals who walk in the wisdom of this world but do not have a relationship with the one who made us in love. It has been 49 years of seeing many lives wonderfully changed but also seeing the world devolve into the stupidity of the wisdom of this age. Friday was a good day.

Scams

Scams you have been led to believe by a lot of supposedly smart people.

Space Aliens and UFO's. In fact, physics places severe limitations on the time and speed needed for any objects that have mass. Travel between stars with planets that could sustain life would take many thousands of years. I don't doubt UFO's but they are not piloted by aliens from other planets.

Life began in a primordial sea. You have been taught that the beginning of life was due to the right chemistry and that complexity evolved through random mutations over time. In fact, life requires an extreme amount of information on many levels which has not and logically could not self organize.  Mutations are always regressive, i.e. the loss of information and there is no logic for development of more complex information over time without immediate benefit.

Variety in species is proof of evolution. In fact, species react to their environment by utilizing information already present for minor changes without adding complexity and can do so only as far as that information allows.

An unborn baby is not a unique human life until it is delivered and unless it is wanted. In fact, once a woman's egg has been fertilized a new human life has begun. It has all the information it will need to develop into a special person with a special destiny, no matter how he or she was conceived and how much he or she is desired. 

Carbon emissions are bad for the environment, less carbon consumption will reduce global temperatures and rates that sea levels rise but will increase severity of weather. In fact, carbon is food plants eat and need. More carbon will equal more and healthier vegetation thus allowing more people to be fed. Fossil fuel consumption has been the key factor in bringing a large portion of the world's population out of poverty. Man released carbon is only a minor fraction of total air born carbon and its total elimination will only have a tiny effect on temperatures. Sea levels have risen at the same rate since we started measuring them and historically there has been more severe weather events during periods of colder temperatures.

All people are basically good so Utopia can be achieved through the leadership of an enlightened leader or leaders and a managerial class who control production, distribution and the education of the masses. In fact, a government needs checks and balances on its ruling class precisely because all men are basically selfish and will, without the desire to follow the will of God, ultimately be deceived into following the will of Satan.

What are the practical results of those scams? The prospect of a Designer and a Creator has as its logical conclusion that God has a will for every person, that our lives are not really our own and that Designer and Creator should be worshiped and obeyed. But even the most intelligent of us have this great desire to be the lord of our own lives. This blinds many to what is obvious and leads others to the deception of false gods that can be satisfied with works and religious acts.

Satan wants to deceive us about the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He wants individuals, families, people groups and the population of countries to be controlled by his servants and he does that by offering the illusion of a life that would be better by doing and being the opposite of what God desires for us. He ultimately operates through pride, fear and intimidation and the fruits of his rule is always suffering and death, even for the elite.

So the next time you hear about spending billions to find water on Mars so we can better understand how life began, or are told that climate change will lead to the destruction of mankind so we must eliminate fossil fuels, or that overturning Roe V Wade is anti woman, or read that aliens are probing our private parts, or are asked to vote for people who cannot define what a woman is and see the Constitution as an impediment to progress, just step back and think about why this is happening and who is benefiting from it.

10 Things I Learned During a 2 Day Cruise Up and Down the Upper Mississippi River in Iowa

1. There are quite a few pelicans who spend their summers nesting on tiny sandy islands. They seem to fly in tight formations of 3 but hunt for fish in pairs. This looks pretty cool until your boat gets a little close to an island with a thousand of them and you get a whiff of their droppings.

2. We spotted over 50 bald eagles flying around or sitting on trees, but most impressive is how big a bald eagle's nest looks. Bald Eagles eat fish of course but they have also developed a taste for pelicans, picking off the ones who are still dozing after their buddies have flown off.

3. The Mississippi River has a sandy bottom and dredged sand can make for some very nice beaches.

4. If the sign on the river's edge or beach says "Danger, do not trespass" it is best to follow the rules because there are unexploded bombs or shells still left over from WWII training exercises buried there.

5. Dead Man's Head creek got its name when explorers went up it and found severed Indian heads on poles facing the water, apparently their warning to tribes from the other side saying "Danger, do not trespass".

6. Dead Man's Sluice, a wide body of water just off the river, got its name after an event that happened on Armistice Day. It was a 60 degree November afternoon when millions of migrating ducks and geese came in to land. Hundreds of hunters were waiting for them and had good luck until a historic low pressure system arrived. Temps dropped 40 degrees in one hour, heavy rains poured, winds picked up and it then started to blizzard. Some people made it back home but a couple of hundred people died as well as most of the birds.

7. On a more happy note the chicken we were served for lunch the day we heard that story was glazed with a very tasty huckleberry sauce.

8. The purpose for locks on the Mississippi is to be able to maintain a navigation channel of at least 9 feet deep. Without locks (and dredging) there were and would be dry summers where water levels would be so low that navigation for almost any sizable vessel would be impossible.

9. If you want to learn just about anything about riverboats or the Mississippi River you could do no worse than talking to 13 year old Miles, a true river geek who was seated the table next to us where we ate on the riverboat. It was his 3rd time on our boat, the River Twilight (this time accompanied by his grandma) but he tries to get on the river at least once a month for shorter trips. Miles goal is to get his pilot's license when he turns 19. Hopefully he will wear contacts by that time because he was helping with the mooring ropes on our trip through lock #13 and while doing so his arm bumped his glasses off into the water.

10. Old Older Amish from Northern Indiana don't drive cars after they get baptised into their religion, but they will let other people drive them around, either in cars or in luxury charter buses, one of which pulled into our riverboat's parking area just as we were pulling in. So, needless to say, when half the people on your boat are Amish, and you spend most of 2 days with them, you notice a few things.

A. Most of the Amish were couples who had been married 25 years and every 5 years there is some charter trip available for them to sign up for. It seemed they all knew each other. 

B. Most were dressed exactly as you would expect. The men wore dark homemade pants w/out belts, some had suspenders (isn't that really a vertical belt?), lighter solid color homemade shirts, and had bowl style haircuts on heads not covered by hats (it was 92 and sunny the first day out on the decks). The women all wore plain, solid color, homemade, ankle length polyester dresses that looked 2 sizes too big (with an apron the some color as their dress which they would flip us to fan themselves), and they each had the exact same new looking bright white bonnet with tie strings that no one tied. Most of the women liked to sit out in the sun and you could see that the prettier ones wanted to get a little more tanned, which meant pulling up their dress a bit but still below their knee and folding the fabric up on their arms about 2 inches. (Jackie told me a few times that because of the polyester "those ladies must be dying in this heat".

C. I asked a group what they would be doing that day if they were not on this cruise. The men all answered they'd be working on their farm and the women all agreed they would be - cleaning the house - cooking dinner - washing or working in the garden ("beans should be ready just about now").

D. Some of the Amish could tell really funny stories which kept them all entertained. One lady in particular would relate a story which would make everyone laugh and then her husband would add a one sentence comment and the group cracked up even louder. Jackie and I were usually the only "English" sitting with this group and the stories were lost on us because when they talked with themselves it was always in their German/Dutch with a bit of English sprinkled in. It seemed to me English was used for measurements, dates and times, but sometimes a punchline would be like "Can you believe it?".  Even though we had no way to know if we would believe it or not it was still a lot of fun for us to watch them have so much fun.

E. There was a bar on the third deck which made fruity drinks with crushed ice and booze. I didn't know until then if the Amish drink but now I know that a lot of those ladies really enjoy their fruity pleasures. Hey, maybe that's why they all laughed so hard.  

F. Fun aside, we noticed that a lot of the Amish have missing teeth and a lot of their women have deep worry lines on their faces. One lady had a big gouter on her neck. But like us they were all happy to have a few days without work and responsibilities to just relax. We enjoyed passing shorelines, wildlife on the waters and in the air, good food and a great crew. 

The Amish live a plain and simple life but it is also one of legalism and spiritual bondage, without an assurance of salvation. And salvation for them is not about having a relationship with the living God but rather following the law of being a good Amish. My heart is not concerned about people not wearing belts, using zippers or not having wedding rings. It does ache to think that although there can be laughter there is  not the joy of salvation and the intimacy with God that Jackie and I experience every day.

The Coming Harvest

What has been birthed in prayer

revealed in dreams and visions

sent forth through decrees and declarations

is becoming ripe before our eyes

soon to be plucked and displayed

a woven basket full of wonders


Ripe shoots are emerging in Arizona

fertile ground rumbling in Georgia

harvests on the horizon in Michigan

Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Nevada

more will have their day in the sun

and will quickly be gathered up


At the same time tares will be bundled

chopped and cast upon roaring flames

along with stumps and their rotted roots

plows will sink deep into dirt and muck

turning over and exposing fresh soil

ready to soak in torrents from heaven


Do you hear it California and Texas

are you ready Florida and East Coast

oh rugged mountains and bountiful plains

does your skin sense air pressure dropping

can your nose smell the sizzle of lightning

will your tongue rejoice at the harvest

What Really Happened November 3rd and January 6th

Most people in the West have no idea that the spiritual world is just as real and just as complex as the physical world. They also do not realize that they are currently in the midst of a gigantic spiritual battle that plays itself out in the spiritual as well as the physical and political realms. They do not see or understand that there are fallen angels and evil demonic spirits who have as their leader a fallen angel (known by many names) and that these spirits are actively trying to influence all areas of human society. 

We can broadly define those areas as government, media, academia, finance and business, entertainment and the arts, the family and finally the church. The evil one, through the direction of spiritual principalities and powers in the high places, has through the years successfully placed people they influence through demonic spirits into the power structures of those institutions.

The evil one's modus operandi is always to deceive, kill, steal and destroy and to rebel against everything holy and pure which the Father has intended for this world. But the evil one will for a time elevate any who will give him worship and obedience. And there are many who knowingly do so. 

The evil one has a plan and a timeframe for that plan to form a world government that aligns with him in rebellion against the Father. Keep that in mind when you think of current events. It will help you to understand the broader overall picture of what is happening in particular in America and with the European Union, China and the Mid East as well as elsewhere in the world.

All this is of course not only to defy the Father but also to justify the evil one's rebellion against the Father. In doing so he seeks to corrupt everything the Father has made and to distort everything the Father has revealed. To do this the evil one casts illusions, making good and pure things appear bad while at the same time making evil things appear good.

Thus the evil one makes sin (what the Father in His love for us has pointed out and prohibited) look attractive and desirable. And in the end, when sin results in fear, emptiness, despair and sickness the evil one twist things around so that people will not recognize who it is that delights in those things. Many end up blaming God, who is the source of light, for the darkness.

He also desires governmental structures that control, limit and eventually eliminate Christian and Jewish faith with their freedom of worship, freedom of expression and their troublesome unbending moral codes. The main objective of the evil one and those that serve him is not simply wealth and power. It is all about having the ability to be in control. Wealth and power are just tools to accomplish control. 

You should be worried when you look around today and see that one political side owns the major media outlets and the major tech sources of information, creates and references the major fact checkers, and thus controls to a great extent whatever narrative that political side chooses, all aided and abetted by an army of PC trolls and the entertainment industry. The logical next step is to eliminate any sources of narrative that run contrary to what has been proclaimed as truth. That censorship has been well underway for many years but has gone nuclear since the last election.

This is indoctrination and it has been very effective. It is not just indoctrination to a political narrative but also to the belief system behind that narrative. Thus it becomes not just political indoctrination but also religious indoctrination. People today get so worked up and emotional when an idea contrary to the narrative is presented that they refuse to even consider it and sometimes they even attack those they disagree with.

Part of the reason that normally fair minded people succumb to deception is that they have been in a pattern of compromise, gradually accepting the breakdown of traditional boundaries laid down by the Father.   

The Father sets up boundaries for our safety and protection so that we can avoid sin and so we will not be oppressed by demonic spirits that gain legal rights through our sins. One of the things that happen when we are deceived and step outside those boundaries is that we invite the activity of demonic spirits into our lives, which then leads to being even more deceived. This is especially true with sexual sins, sexual perversions, and ANY involvement with things of the occult.

The Father has also set up boundaries to protect the lives and the purity of the young, the weak and the innocent and expects us as a society to do so as well. When as a society we fall short, or as politicians legislate against, or as individuals either condone or don't care, we invite the activity of demonic spirits into the affairs of our government and into the affairs of our society. To be clear, I'm not talking just about the horrors of abortion but also about what our children are exposed to through media or by other people.

When society becomes confused about gender identity and encourages our youth to do so as well, when we accept that God is OK with same sex marriages and come up with Bible proof texts to support it, when sex outside marriage in any form is considered OK, when explicit violence and horror and perversions are present in our movies and music and when the occult is presented as anything but the dark evil that it truly is, when the Christian foundations of our country are ignored, made fun of, scorned and reviled, you know that we as a society have and are being deceived and we have become spiritually blind to the schemes and the intents of the evil one. 

When a good intentioned person goes into government and in a weak moment takes that first little bribe or that first quid pro quo with a lobbyist, that sin has far bigger consequences than what that person can even imagine. They have entered into a realm which is not just personal and they have given legal right for higher evil spiritual powers in government to assign specific demonic spirits to oversee them. And they have begun to surrender the ability to legislate for the best needs of the people. They are caught in a sticky web that, whether they realize it or not, is draining them of any true integrity.

There is great and deep corruption throughout our government, from the elected officials that keep getting sent to Washington, to our State Houses. There is great and deep corruption in many areas of our intelligence organizations as well as in our justice system. There is great and deep corruption among the power elites in business and in finance who have secret agreements with those in government. The true insiders take care of themselves, watch out for themselves, and many go to the same parties and send their children to the same schools, no matter what party they get elected from.

Our society and all of our institutions are in need of revival, reformation and restoration. The evil one has had great success advancing his kingdom during this last century. Yet God is not unconcerned about the direction we are headed. He is not powerless to bring about change. He has not been uninvolved in establishing His kingdom here on earth and in America. The Father has his own plans, His own time frame, His own spiritual forces and He has millions in the physical world who have been storming the gates of Heaven to see the Father's kingdom come here as it is in Heaven.

In doing so the Father is of course free to choose what ever means He desires and what ever person or persons He desires. You don't have to like or approve the how or the whom that God uses but you should be very cautious and go before Him with sincere prayer and spiritual discernment before you are openly critical of those means or the people God chooses to accomplish them.

In 2008 Barack Obama was elected President. At the time he ran he had the most far left voting record of anyone in the US Senate, but he was attractive, a historic option as a person of color, and a smooth talker. And yet sure enough we got from him all the radical policies we should have expected. I personally believe he is an evil man with sinister connections, directed by evil spirits in high places, and that he is still the or one of the major players working behind the scenes in Washington and beyond.

I'll mention just two reasons why I believe that. First, when he was President I had a dream where I was in the White House and noticed hanging on one of the walls a fancy carved mirror frame that our family furniture company used to sell. I was disturbed because it didn't have any mirror glass in it and so I found President Obama standing alone and told him so. To me this meant that there was an invisible spirit that had dominance over the man. Second, in his official travels around the world, when he would visit famous shrines or temples in those countries he would ask to be left alone for awhile inside the most sacred parts of those buildings. It reminded me of what Alexander the Great used to do, wanting to get the special blessings and/or powers of those demonic spirits worshipped there.  

During his time he and his team had great success in bringing in their people into multiple layers of government. Many of them are still there.

In 2016 I believe the plan of the evil one was to continue his globalist agenda for America through Hillary Clinton. Clintons have a different power base than Obama and Hillary has a different strong evil spirit controlling her, but she was the chosen one. I think forces in the Democrat Party had rigged that election also but underestimated Trump's appeal and were shocked when they lost. 

From the day Trump got nominated and from the hour he was elected it became the game plan of the inner circle, with the full power of the media, big tech, social media and the entertainment industry behind them, to declare President Trump an illegal and false President. From then on they opposed everything he did, criticized everything he did, took out of context anything they could, put negative headlines on every article they wrote concerning him or his policies, and would in every way they could present him in a negative light. As I wrote above, this was an attempt to brainwash the public into thinking President Trump was a horrible person who would even praise Neo Nazis and who made fun of the handicapped (both false, but it shows you the power of propaganda). 

The power brokers devised a plan to ensure that they would not lose again in 2020. Again they were surprised because President Trump was so popular that the amount of votes that came in for him shattered their projections. This led them to make careless mistakes in how they cheated to overcome the difference. I assure you, the statistical evidence, both macro and micro, the eyeball evidence of Trump support verses Biden support, the logical arguments of a dozen different metrics, all support a landslide Trump reelection. And that's before we add in all the sworn eyewitness accounts of bald face cheating and abuse of election laws. In time it will be made manifest for all to see.

Why do the insiders from both parties hate President Trump with a passion? There are several main reasons and they have very little to do with his past life or his personality.

The first is that God chose Donald J. Trump for such a time as this to clean out corruption in Washington, of which the leaders in both parties are knee deep. God chose Trump to break away from the globalist plans for America that the evil one was so close to finalizing, of which leaders from both sides were part of. God chose Trump so that America would be a strong ally of Israel and a strong opponent of abortion, two highly spiritual principles which the evil one especially hates. God chose Trump to be a champion of religious liberty both at home and abroad, a threat to those whose true allegiance lie elsewhere. God chose Trump to loosen the control of government over the lives of the American people, something a ruling class never wants to see. God did not pick who we would have picked, but he did chose someone who would have the fortitude to take the gloves off, stand on principle and fight back against the opposition for the benefit of the American people. 

This is a spiritual battle and the ruling class are on the wrong side. That is why they oppose and hate President Trump. I can picture evil spirits sitting on shoulders of the ruling elite digging in their sharp claws at every mention of his name. That is why they have tried to destroy him and have ignored the rule of law in their attempt to do so. That is why they have to try and silence and vilify anyone who supports President Trump, who questions the fairness of the elections or the wisdom of their radical policies.

Which brings us to the events of January 6. Let me tell you what I know. There were over a million people who came to Washington for January 5 and January 6 to support President Trump. Half of them were Christians who came with their families and who believed, as I do, that common sense clearly showed that President Trump won in a landslide and that the election was stolen. They did not come to be violent. They came to legally and lawfully express their support for President Trump and to express their free speech rights. 

They knew that January 6th was the day that electors would be presented and there was hope that Vice President Pence would kick the decision back to the 7 states that had the most obvious examples of cheating  for a 10 day audit, which he had the legal option to do. The process for that was clear to everyone in advance. Each state that had objections would have a Senator and a Representative come forward to object. There then would be a two hour debate for each contesting state on the merits of the objection. Every Trump supported wanted this debate to be public so that the objections from each state could get pass the media cover up and every Trump supporter wanted the 10 day audit for the same reason.

One thing should become absolutely clear right here. If there was a disturbance to the process, who would it benefit? Certainly not President Trump or his supporters.

I watched President Trump's speech. It was a typical Trump speech I had watched a dozen times befoe, only a little bit more subdued. At the end of his speech he listed some of the voting problems and welcomed the people to "peacefully and lawfully" head over to the Capitol. He did nothing in my opinion to incite the crowd who had been standing in the freezing cold for several hours. Any suggestion otherwise is false and a fabrication of the media and the insiders that control them. His speech, which was scheduled to start at 11am, actually started closer to noon and ended at 1:11pm.

I have heard quite a few ministers who were there on January 5 and 6 share what they saw and experienced via video. People were happy, singing songs, praying and glad to be there. They and the people around them were all appalled when they got to the Capitol to see what was happening. Charlie Shamp was at Black Lives Matter Square on the evening of January 5. He and his team have in the past gone to places like CHAZ in Seattle to minister to the people there, most of whom were demonized. They always get many wonderful healings, deliverances and salvations when they do so. That night in Washington he was surprised because he only saw a couple of Antifa people there, when normally they are a major presence. He was told by one he talked to that they were all at a (planning) meeting at that time (he was also told by the same guy that the regulars get paid $24 an hour while the leaders get $38 an hour).

Something you should know about Antifa and a few other radical groups like them. Someone is paying for their transportation. Someone is paying for their presence. They usually wear black body armor, have helmets and have developed a communications system to use on site and cameras to record everything they do. They get transported to places that are or are suspected to have riots and they work by mingling into the crowds, working up the crowds into a frenzy, supplying the crowds with materials to riot with (such as dropping off pallets of bricks near commercial districts). Last summer's riots produced over 2 billion worth of damage, saw many killed and saw 600 police injured. A lot of it can be attributed to what these professional agitators do. The goal of anarchists is to break down societal structures so that a Marxist society can replace them.

The people who get arrested do not stay in jail long thanks to their bail being provided by groups who received donations to do so. Kamala Harris proudly admits that she donates to those bail groups.

Before January 6th the FBI and Capitol Police had multiple warnings that something was planned against the Capitol building. In spite of that and in spite of the presence of the full Congress and the Vice President, and in spite of the fact that there would be hundreds of thousands of people coming to the Capitol building that day there was nothing extra done, as they have often done in the past when large crowds are present, to better secure the perimeter and to beef up Capitol security forces. Capitol security forces answer directly to Speaker Pelosi and she refused to authorize additional help prior to the event, even after they specifically requested it.

There were crowds at the Capitol building before President Trump's speech ended. Some of them were the ministers I mentioned. Trump's speech ended at 1:11pm, it is a mile walk to get to the Capitol, and the intrusion into the Capitol building began before his speech even ended. The claim that Trump's speech "incited" the Capitol intrusion and violence is simply a narrative by all those who hate President Trump but cannot be the truth, given the timing of the intrusion and the testimony by the FBI and the Capitol police that the Capitol intrusion was pre-planned. 

Video evidence shows that the people who pulled down the barriers, who scaled the walls to break the windows, who were seen encouraging people to rush into the Capitol building, have been clearly identified as known Antifa and other known anarchist groups. Many of them were wearing MAGA gear on the outside over their black body armor. Did regular Trump supporters enter the Capitol building in the excitement. Sure. Would they have if the path was not provided for them. Most likely not.

When what was happening become known, according to Mark Medows, the President's chief advisor,  President Trump offered 3 times to send in additional forces to end the violence. Each time he was refused. He spoke twice on TV for there to be an end to the violence.

Who died? One Trump supporter was outside talking on his cell phone to his wife when he had a heart attack. One Trump supporter died while outside, of a stroke in the excitement. One unarmed female Trump supporter was inside the Capitol and was shot by a so far unnamed Capitol police officer while climbing through an interior window. One Capitol police officer died. It was at first reported by all the media that he had been hit in the head by a fire extinguser, but that was never confirmed. There is a report he died instead after the excitement was over of a stroke. Either way it and the other deaths are tragic. But his death, by having him lie in state in the Capitol as optics to the hatred of all things Trump, has become political theater, designed to further the narrative that Trump is dangerous, that Trump followers are dangerous and basically that all Conservative ideas are dangerous.

I believe both Pelosi and McConnell knew what was going to happen. I would not go past saying they might have even known who was ultimately behind it. They have certainly used it fully to their advantage. This was to be the death of Trump's political presence and the first step in the next phase of silencing Conservative thought and expression. Today we have a Washington surrounded by razor wire and guarded by 10's of thousands of troops. That is what happens when tyrants get into power.

Back to the plans of the Father. Donald Trump won and will be restored to power. Joseph Biden lost and will suffer the fate of those who are usurpers. The creatures of the swamp have been weighed in the balance and found wanting. The earth will shake. A great wind will blow. Just as God told me when I saw a hawk fly past me with a cardinal in its claws, justice will come quickly. God has let everything play out to show where each one's loyalties are. People will betray others in order to save themselves and many will die or go to jail. The eyes of many will be opened and American will pull itself away from the plans of the evil one and enter a new era. How long that lasts I do not know. There will still be more spiritual battles, even after justice is served, but many more will be equipped to help fight it.

And the best news: A Great Awakening has already begun and the power of God will manifest itself more powerfully than ever before. Many millions will come to know Jesus in the days and years ahead and many other countries will also be revived, renewed and restored, some which have only seen the Gospel before in a limited way.

Through it all this will truly be for the sons and daughters of God, the best time to be alive. Praise the Lord!

The Writing Is On The Wall

There were a couple of verses that stood out to me two days ago as I was reading from the book of the prophet Jeremiah. Chapter 50 begins with the editor's note - "Prophecies Against Babylon".  In context we understand that Babylon had recently conquered the nation of Judah, destroyed the city of Jerusalem and had brought most of the inhabitants who were still alive back to Babylon. By doing so they were carrying out God's judgment against the nation of Judah because she had abandoned God, did not obey His precepts and were worshiping other gods.

But we also understand that in the Book of Revelation Babylon represents a world system that is opposed to God. It ultimately becomes the one world government, controlled by the evil one, who seeks to destroy, not only Israel, but also the Church in his effort to prevent the physical return and rule of Jesus over the nations from Jerusalem.

I sense the following verses can also apply to what is happening today. We are at a unique juncture in world history where if the United States goes one way we are heading into a time frame that will quickly lead to the tribulation (and the rapture of the Church) or if we go the other way we may have perhaps a hundred blessed years unlike the world has ever seen.

I had thought for a long time that control of government over our lives was expanding so fast and overall morality and the influence of the Church was descending so quickly into paganism that judgment and tribulation were right at our doorstep. But over the last several years I have come to realize that God has other plans and other time frames which will trump those of the evil one. His plans include a world wide harvest of souls, the ending of legal abortion and the reformation of government, justice, education, media and other institutions.

I believe, although as I write today it does not look like it, that God's plans and timing are going to come to pass and that He is now going to begin judging all the lies and deeds done in darkness by the evil one and those that are influenced my him. Time will soon show if these verses apply to 2021.

I set a snare for you and you were also caught, O Babylon, while you yourself were not aware; You have been found and also seized because you have engaged in conflict with the Lord. (50:24)

Flee from the midst of Babylon, and each of you save his life! Do not be destroyed in her punishment, for this is the Lord's time of vengeance; He is going to render recompense to her. (51:6)

What The Media Don't Know

The media don't know about God

or evil spirits, or the evil one

or truth for that matter

They don't know about innocent blood

calling out from invisible graves

shaking the throne room

They don't know about secret meetings

handshakes in dark rooms

hidden altars


They media don't know about restoration

or reformation, or reconciliation

or revival for that matter

They don't know about the Donald

plans and timeline of the Father

the meaning of a trumpet

They don't know about angels with flaming swords

watchmen and women on bended knee

how a house gets cleaned


The media don't know about their time running out

or ownerships changing, or new stars arising

or freedom of the press for that matter

They don't know that secrets will be exposed

that this nation will rise up

that jail cells await

They don't know when the story is finally written

and when masks have been ripped away

a new song will arise

Justice Will Come Swiftly

Earlier this week I was sitting in my car in a parking lot we use for part of our driving tests. From the far end of the lot I notice a hawk flying toward me. It passes close by and has something bright red in its talons which I figure must be a cardinal. It lands on a branch about thirty feet away and waits several minutes until the life drains away from its prey. It then begins the process of using its beak to tear apart the smaller bird. My client then arrives, I begin their test, and forty-five minutes later when we get back to the parking lot the hawk is gone and I can find no traces of feathers or bones on the ground from the cardinal.

I feel, because of how close the hawk flew near me and because of my surprise at noticing the bright red in its claws, that there might be a message to me from God in what has just happened. If God can speak to us through dreams and visions then He certainly can do so through what we experience in the natural. That evening I start praying about it and doing some research about prophetic symbolism but I get nothing that felt right. Then a couple of mornings later as I am lying in bed before getting up I picture the scene of the hawk and a short sentence comes clearly in my head. "Justice will come swiftly".

Before explaining what I believe that means let me give you a little background about how I have been feeling concerning the season we are in.

From I spiritual point of view I have been convinced for a long time that President Trump would win again in 2020 and serve 4 more years. As I have written before, it is not about Donald Trump but about what God wants to accomplish through him. I can simplify that into 5 points. This election (as well as the 2016 election) was about the life of the unborn, the security of the nation of Israel, Christian freedom and morality, the restoration and preservation of our Republic, and a spiritual revival that would shake both this country and the nations of the world. God's hand was upon Donald J. Trump in 2016, President Trump proved himself faithful on the first 4 of those counts, and a great awakening has begun. Thus it is that God's hand is still on Donald J. Trump and no matter what else you are being told, he will be our President for the next 4 years.

From a worldly point of view I was also convinced that President Trump would win in a landslide in 2020. I will simplify that in 5 points. Excitement for President Trump was at historic levels in his base, minority support for him was greatly expanding, Democrats were crossing over in droves, personal income and the economy before Covid were at record levels and were well on their way to recovery, and President Trump's record on life, judges and Christian liberty had swung over a lot of Evangelicals that had sat out the last election. All of those expectations proved true. Even if we don't challenge any of the election numbers President Trump's votes increased from 63 million in 2016 to 74 million in 2020.

There was another thing I was feeling very strongly from a spiritual point of view and which I had mentioned a few times in my writings. I believed that after the elections in 2020 the Democrat Party as we know it would implode and would not recover for decades. I am still feeling this. I did not know that part of the reason would be connected to revelations concerning how this election was fixed and who ultimately was responsible for doing so. I still don't know names (although I have heard rumors) but I do believe that the truth will come out clearly for all to see.

Before my conclusion, here are a few things from a worldly standpoint that make one go - humm?

President Obama who was wildly popular and had huge rallies, received 69 million votes in 2008, his best year. Hillary Clinton, a breakthrough female candidate, received 66 million votes in 2016. President Trump, who was getting crowds of 20 to 40 thousand with 1 day notice at random airports and 50 - 60 thousand in a rally in swing state PA, and had thousands of spontaneous Trump parades, received 74 million votes in 2020. Joe Biden, with no excitement behind him, who spent most of his time in his basement and when he did go out attracted fewer than 100 cars, who had one of the most unpopular VP choices ever, who never articulated a positive vision of what he would do, received 80 million votes, 11 million more than Obama and 14 million more than Clinton.

Not only that but Joe Biden 2020 underperformed Clinton 2016 in EVERY major metro area in the country except 4 - Atlanta, Detroit, Philly and Milwaukee, all of which restricted, limited or outright excluded Republican poll watchers from observing millions of mail-in votes being processed. 

Not only that but Trump won Florida by 3 points and Ohio by 8 points. In the last 60 years who ever won both of those bellwether states won the Presidency.

Not only that but Trump won 18 of the 19 bellwether counties (counties that historically predict the winner) by an average margin of 16 points. Biden carried the other by 3 points. There is a larger group of 58 bellwether counties. Trump won 51 of those by an average of 15 points. Biden won his 7 by an average of 3 points.

Not only that but Biden's 80 million votes did not affect any of the down ballot races. When a Presidential candidate wins big it always pulls in victories for those running for the House of Representatives. Republicans in 2020 won every contested House election. Trump is the only incumbent in history to lose their re-election while their party gained a lot of seats in the House.

From a worldly point of view this election will eventually be overturned and lots of people are going to go to jail. The thousand of sworn witness statements to fraud, the thousand of strange statistical anomalies and some outright statistical impossibilities, the information that has already come out about Dominion voting machines and Smartmatic and related software and the personalities involved and their political connections, all will end up causing a national uprising if justice is not done. 

But for now the process is to present available evidence and push it upstream through the courts, with multiple fronts being pursued, including involving State legislators, to invalidate improper ballots. This will either result in a Supreme Court ruling or in there not being enough Electoral votes to confirm a candidate, which will then push the solution back to the states. The Constitution provides that each State legislator send 1 representative to Washington to place their vote for President. There are 31 Republican State Legislators and 19 Democrat.   

Spiritually I believe that justice will be brought about and that all that has been hidden and done in darkness will be revealed. This will involve people from both parties. And hopefully this will happen soon.

But I am inclined to believe in the scene I described in the beginning is that the cardinal's red represents the life of the innocent unborn child, whose lives have been squeezed out and torn apart. The calls from their blood have risen to Heaven and God is about to bring about justice for them. Commentators on the Conservative side have been saying that Roe V Wade will not be overturned, even with a Conservative Supreme Court majority and that the most that can change will be minor adjustments regarding abortion in individual State laws. 

I think that what God is saying to me here though is that not only can Roe V Wade be overturned - but that it indeed will be, and much sooner than anyone would think. The courts of Heaven have spoken and it will come about through both the courts and the hearts of men and women in this country.

Lord, release into this land the spirit of Truth and Justice.

The Coming Cloud Of His Glory

Fall is nearing an end and we are about to enter into a new season. So earlier this week I decided to clean leaves out of the gutter at the front of my house. I thought it was going to be easier than before. This season. I would get out my big ladder, climb up with my high volume power blower and blow out several 15' sections. Bam! Quick job, job over.

It didn't end up working like I thought it would. The gutters were filled with leaves but they were packed in with a mixture of twigs and long pine needles the wind had blown from across the street and it was an interwoven mess. That meant that I needed to place my ladder against the gutter, climb up, get everything I could reach to the right and to the left, gripping my fingers around the material and into some cold water at the bottom of the gutter, each trip filling a bucket I carried up with me, then down the ladder, dump material into my wheelbarrow, move the ladder and start working on another section. It was a job I had to keep at until it was done because if any jumbled mess was left in part of the gutter run the next rain would move it to one or both of the down sprouts and the gutters would not function as they were designed to do.

For the last two years I've had a sense that we as a country are moving into a new season. A season in which the prevailing evil spirits in the various mountains of influence would be confronted, weakened and overcome. We would at the same time see the beginning of a third great awakening in our land which would in turn become international. This awakening would be much greater than the ones before it and as part of that great awakening the Church would see and experience the tangible sense of the glory and awesome presence of God. Many tens of millions of souls would come to know and honor the Father and would surrender their lives to Jesus as Lord. This would begin to radically transform every part of society. Even the parts that today we have little or no fatih to expect.

To that purpose for the past two years I have been interceding for the mountains of influence and have been binding and rebuking evil spirits that have influence and authority in those areas and have also been declaring a release of the Spirit of Truth and Justice into those areas so that all evil deeds would be brought to the light and dealt with. My prayer has been that God's Kingdom come and His will be done in those areas in America as it is in Heaven and that, as in the rest of the Our Father, our country's sins would be forgiven as we forgive those that trespass against us. But silly me, I somehow thought that the spiritual battle I was engaged in would become easier after God's man for this time, President Trump, won by a landslide on November 3. It turns out there is still a thick, inter-tangled mess which needs to be pulled out step by step on the left and on the right, and there is still work to do in the icy waters.

It has now been a little over two weeks since the November 3rd, 2020 election. Although you will have no comfort about what I am going say if you listen to the news, what I am going to tell you is the truth. President Trump did win in a landslide although the enemy is trying to cheat him out of it. President Donald John Trump will indeed serve a second term and God's plan for America and for many of the nations of the world will go forward. Donald Trump was chosen by God to achieve certain spiritual objectives. He has been faithful to do his part during his first term and God is going to continue advancing His purposes through Donald Trump and others for the next 4 years and beyond. Although I am completely confondent in this I now understand that it is God's blessing for me to still be a part in seeing this come to birth through my prayers. (I just watch a lot less of the news now).

There are very powerful and dark spiritual principalities and powers which sit in high places of influence in this country, and in the rest of the world, and they have destruction as their main goal. They want to destroy the Christian faith and all standards of Christian morality. They want to destroy the sacred family order. They want to destroy Israel. They want to destroy the covenant our forefathers made with the Father to have our unique Union one nation under God. They want to destroy personal responsibility and all the freedoms that make America different and great. They want to destroy racial unity. And they want to destroy innocent life, considering abortion a blood sacrifice that increases their power and influence.

Because this has been and is a spiritual battle, and because evil spirits are strongly influencing carnal men and women in positions of power in politics, the media, business and industry, academia, arts and entertainment and even in the Church, it should come as no surprise that almost everything you have heard from them about President Trump has been strongly negative. They have shaded everything reported about President Trump to a great degree and have injected hate towards President Trump to a great extent because they know their time has come and he is a threat to their power and influence.

I still agree with what I've written before. Donald Trump was chosen for such a time as this because our country was at a point of no return. Corruption ran deep in every part of government and we were quickly sliding into the globalist plans of the evil one. God choose Donald Trump to be a wrecking ball. Someone who would bring chaos into the established order in order to expose and rip away the greedy deeds done in darkness. God saw these things about Trump that would enable him to forward the Master's plan:

Donald Trump loves America, wants the best for it and would do so without seeking any personal gain for him or his family. (Have you EVER heard that about President Trump before?)

Donald Trump would honor and protect Israel.

Donald Trump would be a champion for the unborn.

Donald Trump could not be bought.

Donald Trump is a fighter and strong enough to be able to endure the constant attacks against him.

Donald Trump actually loves people.

Donald Trump truly hates corruption in government.

Donald Trump is equipped to see situations from a different vantage point than others.

Donald Trump would surround himself with strong believing Christians and would be a champion for Christian causes.

Donald Trump would learn to seek out the will of the Lord for himself and his country. 

He is a work in progress and still displays character flaws that make me cringe, but the job God has charged him to do is a nasty one.

But this election and what is happening now is not about any particular man. It is about exposing dark deeds and corrupt personalities, about saving our country from Socialist/Marxist/Anti-Christian agendas, about dethroning principalities and powers and reforming and restoring our great institutions. It is about the coming cloud of His awesome glory and about a coming season of repentance, faith and greater works of the Holy Spirit. 

It should only be expected that the World would not recognize or understand the darkness it has fallen into or that those who have compromised themselves to the World's beliefs, even those in the Church, would not recognize the spiritual battle we are currently engaged in. But God has been raising up a large army who have been faithful to pray and fast this through, who recognize who the real enemy is, where the battle lays and how victory will come. Like everything God plans, the big things He wills come by faith. And the great things of faith always need to be contended for. But faith is, as it says in Romans, the evidence of things hoped for and the substance of things not seen.

I am filled with hope. I choose to look past the smoke screen of the present so I can view the beauty of the near future. At one time I had given up, not thinking any change was possible and was wondering how soon it would be for the Rapture to come and God's judgment to fall. But God has not shown me a definite time frame for His sure return. He has told me though it is time to clean the gutters of the high places so that pure rains may flow and refresh the land. Let it be so!

The Acceptable Number Of Blacks That Should Be Owned As Slaves

What is the acceptable number of Blacks that our country should allow to be kept as slaves? If asked, what would your answer be?

-

Now imagine you were living in a country where enslaving Blacks was legal. There is an election coming up where the main issue is whether slavery of Blacks should continue to be legal. Some of the pro-slavery arguments are as follows:

-

Blacks are not really people and because they are in a sense subhuman it is OK to own them and to have full control over their lives.

-

Slavery of Blacks is an economic necessity and those owning Blacks as slaves would suffer financially if slavery was outlawed.

-

You might be personally opposed to owning Black slaves but what right do you have to tell someone else that they cannot own Black slaves.

-

The number of Blacks who are slaves is gradually decreasing, thus it would be best for the country to do nothing and in time the number of Blacks owned as slaves would be more acceptable for those who are opposed to it.

-

We understand you are bothered by the idea of slave owners physically harming their Blacks and we want to assure you that it is our ultimate goal to make slavery of Blacks rare, safe, but legal.

-

One hundred and sixty years ago there was an election coming up. One party wanted to do everything possible to end slavery. The other the exact opposite. Slavery was not the only issue between the parties but how one voted had everything to do with what would happen over the next five years and beyond. The movement to end the enslavement of Blacks originated with and was carried forth most aggressively through the years by those in the Church who were morally opposed to the institution. Now it had come to a head and people had their chance to make a moral decision of their own in the sight of God by how they voted. I know we can convince ourselves that it is never really that simple. But maybe it is.

-

There is an issue today that equals or even exceeds the moral injustice of owning Blacks as slaves. Many of the same arguments used to support slavery are used to support the ending of an innocent human life. And once again we are being asked to make a moral decision in the sight of God by voting. 

-

During the last four years the same Party that promised to end the enslavement of Blacks has done everything possible to advance the righteous cause of protecting the life of the innocent. The other Party has continued to swing more radical on the issue, even approving taking the life of a child who survives an abortion. Their VP hopeful when State Attorney General even prosecuted an undercover journalist who exposed the widespread practice by Planned Parenthood of selling aborted baby parts to labs for medical research. The results of the election will not only affect abortion policy and funding in our country but, because of our countries funding and influence, across the world as well.

-

I imagine you view yourself as an enlightened person who, if given the chance today, would vote for the person and the party who were moving to end the horrors of the enslavement of Blacks to the last man, woman and child. So what is your position on the acceptable number of babies that should legally be aborted? And what are you going to do about it?

Political And Spiritual Perspectives From The Last 4 Years

Here is a list of links to some of my brilliant essays from the last 4 years concerning politics and related spiritual perspectives surrounding those politics. An old Chinese curse says - May you live in interesting times - and we have certainly had that, topped off with 2020 as icing on the cake.

Posting on religion and/or politics is a sure fire way to get at least some people spitting mad every time. That is why, because I have dear friends and family on both sides, I do not post my opinions or share political/religious memes on my family sites. I do though post links to my essays with their titles on my Facebook page. That takes some effort on the reader's part so they only go there if they want to. Since most of my friends already are aware of what side of the fence I stand they should know what to expect once they do clink on the link.

Posting on FB does have an interesting side to it. It seems that even if you have several hundred friends (which I don't) only a limited number of my friends (based on how much we interact) will actually see my posts. The numbers do increase when someone "likes" or "shares" which then allows that post to be seen by greater numbers.

I do have a lot of family who are not part of my friends list but whom I think would enjoy and be encouraged by what I have written. So here are links to some of my posts. If you are on the other side of the fence feel free to take a peek. Either way I am not doing this to engage in an online argument. We can talk privately if you agree or disagree with what I've written but I ask that you do not post anything in the comment section specifically about the subject matter I've shared. I think that is the loving thing for us to do.

So if ever you've got a bunch of free time, strap on your sunglasses, get your Tums ready and find out what is really going on in our world today.

Here is a post from November 17, 2016, which talks about how I came to vote for Donald J. Trump and the days just after.

Thoughts On The Election


This January 21, 2017 post examines the spiritual damage arising out of bitterness and then matches that to the Marxist roots of radical feminism. A great help in understanding both bitterness and current Marxist thought.

The Root Of Bitterness And Radical Feminism


As this title form May 26, 2018 suggests, there appears to be a keen prophetic link between President Donald Trump and the nation of Israel.

On March 20, 2019, I talked about prophecies that we are seeing played out this very day.

Back on July 14, 2019 I wrote a post called Trump Will Win Bigly In 2020. I also wrote another post on July 15, 2020 called 10 Reasons Why Trump Will Win In November. It seems like a favorite topic of mine. This one from June 6, 2020 has a lot of the same information.

And finally on September 21, 2020 I wrote about a strong feeling I had a few weeks prior that Ruth Bader Ginsburg would not be alive for the November 3rd elections.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Two or three weeks ago, while thinking about politics, this thought popped into my mind - Ruth Bader Ginsburg will not be a Supreme Court Justice when this year's election happens. The thought came so out of the blue and so strong that I actually mentioned to Jackie that I didn't think Ginsberg would be around then.

I didn't know if this was because Ginsberg was going die, although I did know that she recently had to go to the hospital to get something treated. Other possibilities came to mind. Perhaps she would retire, although I believe it would be her desire to keep hanging on as long as possible. Perhaps, in order to best engage their base, Democrat insiders, knowing despite public polling otherwise that Biden was actually far behind, would try to get Ginsberg to resign. The odds were not good that she was going to hang on for another 4 years anyway so why not use her retirement as adding fuel to the far Left fire so to speak. 

And, if she would not retire then maybe she would end up getting "Clintonized" (an untimely end that is supposed to look natural or self inflicted but actually ends up being a bit suspicious). although I'm not suggestion that's what happened to RBG. Cancer is a tough foe and even though she had beat it for a long time it has been known to flair up and be fatal in a very short time. I'm glad she did not have to endure a long time being in pain and was able to be surrounded by family when her time came. 

Imagine my surprise hearing RBG had died. I had heard from prophetic voices after President Trump's election that he would be able to appoint at least 3 and maybe 4 or even 5 Supreme Court Justices. It looks like Ginsberg's replacement will be nominated soon and he or she (most likely she) will be the 3rd Trump selection. And this person will be the one (if Trump selects right) who finally swings the voting balance in the Supreme Court in the direction that Conservatives have always prayed for.

It will be the chance to finally overturn Roe V Wade and bring the issue of abortion back to the States. It will be the chance to finally return law making back to the States and to Congress instead of having the major issues of the day decided by just 5 unaccountable people, willing to revise the foundational principles of the Constitution because in their own eyes they see or desire something different. It will finally be the chance to retain the Judeo/Christian principles this country was founded on. 

The Democrat Party and the Marxist far Left (but now I'm beginning to repeat myself) also understand that this selection for Supreme Court Justice represents a historic moment that could for decades sideline their plans for societal change. Their viciousness in opposing Judge Kavanaugh will seem pale to what is coming. And there is a real chance that the dogs of war will be released and riots or worse will ensue.

It seems Ginsburg's death threw another wrench into the Democrat's plans that I had not thought about back then. The well advertised game for Democrats, knowing they were going to lose big on November 3rd, are plans to do everything possible to cast doubt upon the election results and ultimately bring the decision up to the Supreme Court, as happened with Bush verses Gore in Florida. They were looking for a 4 - 4 tie with Chief Justice Roberts having to cast the deciding vote, and were hoping that Roberts would once again cave in to the Liberal side as he has done a few times before. That outcome is now in shambles.

After I heard about Ginsberg's death I was checking my online links. I found a posting from pastor and prophet Mike Thompson, a man about my age, whom I follow and who in my opinion is one of the best and most mature prophetic voices out there. He posted that same afternoon but before it was known that Ginsburg died that God told him to go to Exodus 14. He pointed out 7 points that he thought God wanted us to hear at this moment. I am only going to share with you the first 3 but I truly believe they are an encouragement from God for His Church for the times we are in right now. 

The context is that the children of Israel were hemmed in by the Red Sea and Pharaoh and his forces are about to advance on the Jewish nation. Earlier Pharaoh had relented and let the nation go but God hardened Pharaoh's heart once again to go after them. The Jewish people complain to Moses, asking him why he led them into the wilderness only to have them die at the hands of the Egyptians. Moses then speaks to the people, and I believe this is God's word for us today;

Moses said to the people;

Do not fear! 

Stand by and see the salvation of the Lord which He will accomplish for you today

The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent

God then tells Moses to lift up his staff, stretch his hand over the Red Sea and divide it. The sons of Israel would then cross over as if on dry land and God would harden the heart of the Egyptians so they would go in after them, only to have the waters return upon Pharaoh's army, chariots and horsemen. In this the Egyptians would know that God is the Lord and He would be honored.

Now for additional commentary by me;

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was Jewish. She died just before the beginning of the Jewish Days of Awe, which began Friday, September 18, at sunset. The Days of Awe are a 10 day period of repentance, starting with the Feast of Rosh Hashanah and ending with the Feast of Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashanah also marks the beginning of a new year on the Jewish calendar. I have to believe that the timing of Ginsburg's death was too perfect to be by accident.

Despite all the sound and the fury which we have heard the last 4 years and will continue to hear, God is in control and is moving. This is the beginning of a new day and a new era. Our country is crossing over, from a focus on death and the destruction of all we hold dear to a focus on life and the blessings of milk and honey. We will be brought to a point where we, as a Christian people, need to decide whether to confront the giants in our promised land with their fortified cities or to live in fear and wander in the wilderness for 39 more years. 

The hearts of those who oppose the will of God and who desire conflict and chaos will be hardened in the days to come. This is God's will, to reveal and expose what is the outcome of rebellion. Their armies and chariots and horsemen will follow after God's people seeking to destroy, but instead mighty waters will fall in upon them. In this the people of our land will finally understand the power of the Lord. And God will indeed be honored.

The first and the greatest message then for us today is - Do not fear! Fear is always the enemy's greatest and most powerful tactic. Fear made the Jewish people forget all that God did through the 10 plagues. Fear kept the Jewish people from entering the promise land. But we have been praying and I believe that our prayers have risen to the Most High, who will continue to move in our midst. 

Second, we need to trust that the Lord is indeed moving in our midst. "Stand by" then does not mean not to pray or not to work toward truth and justice or not to vote. We need to continue to do all of those things. It does mean that even as we engage we need to understand that ultimately the battle is the Lord's, and that He is more than able to destroy and thwart the designs of the enemy.

And third, I think God is saying to us right now - Watch what I will do and be in awe of what will be accomplished. I know that is hard for us. We all like to complain. We all have doubts that the slide in morality and values, the tearing apart of the family, the redefining of our language, the attack on Christianity and the decades long march toward Socialism can actually be stopped or could ever be reversed.

So friends, let us put aside our complaining, stand firm in the will of the Lord, and indeed be in AWE of what the Lord will do.
