THE FRUITS OF APOSTASY

"Their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands. Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths. The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.” Isaiah 59: 6-8

History, both secular and Biblical, is replete with examples of recalcitrant sin-laden peoples being inflicted by the Lord God Jehovah with leaders who have decimated and destroyed the masses that they deceivingly purported to represent for good and just reasons. Some of these were black of heart and viciously disposed and others were simply bumbling idiots, either way they led their nations and those who populated them to destruction and ruin.

That this nation is sin-laden and of a collective corruptness of heart is incontrovertible, the mortals that populate it have descended into depravity, deep sexual deviancy, soul-destroying avarice and bestiality of thought. They revel in their wickedness’s and flaunt them before the world. They splatter the airwaves and cyber space with immorality and deviancy. They pipe it into the homes domestically and export it to foreign shores. Only the ignorantly obtuse and the mentally feeble fail to understand the pitiably deficient state of the collective morals of this people and this society, if they are not abject doers of evil they are upholders and enablers of evil. They are as rotten fruit and about to be plucked and eliminated as the affront they are to a righteous and holy God.

The people are paying a high price for their sins and their sins are legion. The sovereign God who rules will not be mocked. No government exists and no individual rules, but what He allows. I am often asked why I do not provide secular solutions to the precarious state of this nation and get on with a movement to throw the bums out. I emphatically re-state what I have written so many times in the past, “There are no secular solutions for a spiritual disease.” The bums will not be thrown out they are where they are for a reason, and if they should drop by the wayside they will simply be replaced with those who are equally perverse. All too often I have heard others state that the Lord helps those who help themselves, this is absolutely not biblical. The truth is that the Lord delivers those who do His bidding and who rely on Him in all things.

“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5

A righteous and virtuous people can expect righteous government and virtuous leaders; an unwholesome and iniquitous people can expect the same unwholesomeness from those who rule over them. The last three government administrations amplify that fact. The unholy trio, Clinton, Bush, and Obama have brought this nation and its people to a precipice overlooking an abyss, all were, during their tenure, liars and deceivers and upholders of vice and personal corruption. They have piped a Godless recalcitrant people down a crooked road to an imminent demise.

POLITICAL FOIBLES

This nation is divided into three political types - Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. Both Democrats and Republicans are dogmatic slaves to a party line and to specious and strongly held political policies and rigid etched in stone political doctrines. Liberal Democrats in the main have set the course for social deviancy and the moral looseness of the nation. They have instituted infanticide, sexual deviancy, and rampant vice and they enable and support most all-social aberrations that demean the human spirit. They promote sloth and dependence and inveigh against individual liberties that conflict with their political and social dogma. They have infiltrated all echelons of society - most especially the educational system - with their devastatingly erosive and corrosive isms. From the university level down to the lowest elementary grades their doctrinal programs have dulled young minds and inculcated unwise, unsound, and ungodly deviant morals and values in the youth of this nation.

Republicans, though they profess to a higher morality than their counterparts of the Democrat party, they are in fact no less destructive. Arguing the virtues of one over the other is akin to arguing whether the lion or the tiger is more or less dangerous, they will both kill you and devour your carcass. Republicans, though apt to be less immoderate than Democrats, are no less destructive of personal liberties and inimical to sound morality, they talk a good show, but display a shameful obsequiousness to their Democrat counterparts. They are compromisers on principle and facilitators of the Democrat social doctrines that rend the moral fabric of the country. The Republican Party is a pitiful bulwark indeed against the egregiously foul and nasty social curricula promoted and instituted by the Democrats and their societal comrades.

Fortunately the third group - Independents - has traditionally refused to slavishly embrace the political doctrines of either of the two national parties. They have however often shown, in national elections, to possess no more common sense than Republicans or Democrats. Their very real value is that they are far more effective in challenging government abuse and the overstepping of authority by elected and un-elected government officials. Unlike the slaves to the national parties, they will act aggressively and vigorously when either Republican or Democrat political office holders are goring their ox. It was this group of voters that turned the Bush Republicans out of office primarily due to his inaction to, and support of, the millions of illegal foreign interlopers that corrupted the social fabric of the country and bankrupted the treasuries of many state social welfare systems. It is these Independents that have precipitated the sudden and drastic plunge in the personal popularity of Barack Obama and the new lows in support for his policies. He is goring their ox - the national health care system - and they take angry exception to his machinations for National Socialism and all that it stands for.

Independents had turned to Barack Obama only as a change from the disastrous eight-year tenure of George W. Bush, a man who pushed the economy to the edge of collapse, a man who was instrumental in engaging the nation in two guerilla wars, a type of warfare at which the United States has never shined and a type of warfare that nullifies the great strengths of the American Military and militates for interminable conflict and unending costs in both lives and financial resources. He was also a man who refused to provide for the domestic tranquility by fortification of the borders, and one who was every bit as much of a disaster during his time in office as Barack Obama is today.

THIS SAVIOR HAS FALLEN

Barack Obama’s decline has been rapid and percipient, probably the only thing that has saved him from a more drastic fall in public esteem is an ever worshipful propagandist media and Republicans who, true to form, in their Herculean bent to appease socialist liberals haven’t the statesmanship, the intelligence, or the courage to stand on principle and oppose his Marxist policies.

An adoring liberal-socialist media and the mindless believers in Obama as savior have made much of his alleged brilliance, he is in fact possessed of an entirely normal intellect and is neither brilliant nor possessed of a mentally superior adeptness. He is entirely one-dimensional and incapable of thinking in abstract terms. His guiding light is his spouse who is what Jezebel was to Ahab, a not unintelligent evil spirit behind the throne. Michelle’s undisguised hatred of America and of the Caucasian race guides her thinking and ipso facto that of her husband. There can be no doubt that she was the guiding light responsible for her mate’s Marxist political appointees. Some speculate that Obama is the antichrist I don’t believe it. He hasn’t the cleverness, guile, or the complexity and quickness of mind of an antichrist. But, dear reader he has surrounded himself with those who do and they are, thanks to his guided appointments and the weakness of his political opponents in heading off those appointments, in critical positions at every level of government where they are systematically and incrementally installing a totalitarian Fascist/Marxist system in once was a Constitutional Republic.

If Mr. Obama were to read this writing he would be greatly offended. Not by my allegations of his political intent and Marxist leanings, because he is very transparent in that regard and unashamed of his political bent, but my questioning of his alleged brilliance and his mental adeptness would irritate him immensely, in point of fact it would absolutely infuriate him as he is a complete and perfect Narcissist - a true lover of himself.

In previous articles, both prior to his election and after, I have opined that Barack Hussein Obama is immature, inexperienced, untried, untested and wet behind the ears. He is in fact entirely shallow of character. Nothing he has done in his eight and one-half months in office has served to mitigate that assessment. His love of self dominates his every action and his every desire; he has not an altruistic bone in his body. He seeks always to escape responsibility and risk of failure with a continual exaggeration of his own qualities. To hear him tell it he is superior in every way and his infallibility is beyond question.

In his carefully choreographed public appearances, which are nauseatingly frequent, before selectively combed over hysterically rabid attendees one cannot fail to pick up on Obama’s conceit as he poses, preens, struts, mugs and pontificates. He can see himself in the monitors and his idealized image of himself dominates his performance from beginning to end. He will never admit failure, never accept criticism, and he will never credit those in opposition to his ideas and preferences with any credibility that might detract from his own self-perceived superiority. He is quick to demean his opponents and slow to commend the ideas of others. Like Adolph Hitler he has delusions of grandeur, but unlike Hitler this is attenuated by an insufficiency of superior intelligence and a lack of shrewdness. If the camera operators filming him were to indulge us with close-ups of his mug we would most likely find that Barack Obama has chapped lips from kissing mirrors.

WHO SAYS WE’RE OUT OF THE WOODS

Because of my criticism of those the Lord has chosen to rule over us with Godly direction, but who instead eschew that responsibility and corruptly guide our destinies in spiritually adverse ways, I have been at times accused of being unloving, unkind, and lacking in Christian love and charity. Actually I pay little attention to what the mere mortals who traverse this old globe for a short while think about me. What the Eternal Lord God of all creation thinks is what counts. I direct those who think that piety equates with service to the Lord to make a study of Elijah, a great servant of the Lord God Jehovah and one who was not disposed to beat around the bush in regard to sin, corruption of the soul, and an apostasy of faith in the sovereign God. It was his task, nay his absolute duty, to confront King Ahab and his treacherous wife Jezebel who were worshippers of Baal, despoilers of God’s word, and tyrannical abusers of the people under their control. According to the infallible word of God Elijah confronted both Ahab and Jezebel with their sins and corruption, mocked their false prophets and put four hundred fifty of those prophets to the sword. It is evident that Elijah put God before piety.

Watching the secular media, and the know it all talking heads that they sponsor, trying to pull this nation’s irons out of the fire with words of assurance uttered to inspire confidence is entirely educational in regard to their nescience. Ever onward and ever upward is their motto, but only the most deceived and dedicated liberal clones manage to submerge their inner doubts and one senses in listening to the more knowing spokesmen the fearful trepidation behind their words. They have good reason for that apprehension and dread, this nation collectively appears to be well beyond redemption and the point of return. The end will be swift and it will be sudden.

AND JUSTICE FOR ALL

“For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour is thy judgment come.” -Revelation 18:6-10

This nation will fall, but there is still hope for individuals: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

“He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

Maranatha.
