SPIRTUAL "DEEP STATE" - ENEMIES AMONG FRIENDS

ENEMIES AMONG FRIENDS

  When it seemed that everyone had turned on Jesus, even his greatest defender turned on him; Peter denied Jesus three times. Only a few hours before, Peter had defended Jesus with a plain sword, but Jesus wanted defended by a double-edged sword. How should Jesus have been protected? “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Peter could have defended Jesus with Holy Scripture. Peter was Jesus’s defender in the mock court. He could have persuaded the mob with prophesy. He could have shown the “prosecution” the evidence on behalf of Jesus.

  Holy Scripture, at that time, was the Torah, what Christians call the Old Testament. It consists of the five books of the Law (the Pentateuch), the supporting evidence (the prophets), and the wisdom of the ages (the Palms, Proverbs, and so forth). Instead, Peter drew the sword.

  Why the ear of the servant? He would not hear, so Peter, as called for in Scripture, cut it off. Not that Peter should but each should cut off what offends them (Mark 9:43). Peter engaged in unlawful conduct when he used violence.

  Anger was as destructive as the sword. Anger is what fuels the mob. The liberals were quite content when Trump was philanthropic to the causes of the left, just as the multitudes appreciated the benevolence of Jesus. However, when the multitude’s anger was aroused, there developed a spiritual insanity. The multitude became irrational when they hearkened to the few. The mob’s demeanor made the multitudes meaner!

  Now consider Adam and Eve again, as there is nothing new under the sun. God gave Adam the Law, and it was only one Law. God told Eve nothing! Then arrogant Eve confronted the Serpent with her version of the Law. God had never told Adam not to touch the forbidden tree, just do not eat of it. Eve thought she knew the Law and presented herself as a specialist in what God wanted for them. She was deluded and did something irrational — she ate of the forbidden tree and did not seem to suffer any consequences but inside she did. She took the Law flippantly and frivolously. She had created a new Law and that was to ignore the Law to which a person disagrees.

  Eve became the Law in contrary to God. She was deceived. On the other hand, Adam hearkened unto Eve. He rationalized his eating forbidden fruit because Eve’s law was easier than God’s. It was just so much easier to do what they wanted to do without fear of consequences. With the first sin, the first “mob” was created, and Eve was its leader. The disobedient two were cast out into the world wherein their progenitors hearkened unto them. God “fenced” them out of Paradise. The mob of two became a mob of billions. Their attitude spread like a virus and the world suffered tribulation. Their new law was the law of Satan, Do whatever you want is the whole law, paraphrasing Satanist Anton LeVey. Mobs do whatever they want to do, and disregard the Law of God and next to go is the law of the land.

  If people do not fear God and His retribution, why should they fear the police? Why should they fear jurisprudence? Well, they do not! Civil Law originates in the Law of God. Specialists in the law, refer to US jurisprudence as “natural law.” That is a misnomer. Natural law is based on original sin; to do whatever people want. That is the way it was in Israel before the kings (Jud 17:6), “That ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring (Num 15:39).

“Whoring” in that context is doing what you are inclined to do. Whores are inclined to prostitute themselves for gain. Whoring against God is self-love — appeasing your own desires. That is the Law of Sin and what the world is inclined to do. What is a mob? Group whoredom. They are “hookers” who strut their stuff on the streets and peddle their wares.

  What was whoredom doing when they mobbed Jesus? They were ravishing His Word. They had not any authority whatever to judge Jesus so harshly.  Jesus said: “Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven” (Luke 6:37). What do mobs do? They obviously condemned Jesus and judged Him worthy of death. Even if Jesus had falsely claimed to be God, what should the multitude have done? Forgiven Him.

  After Jesus died, Simon Magus (the sorcerer) followed the apostles around. Probably, he was the “thorn in Paul’s flesh” … “the messenger of Satan to buffet me” (2 Cor 12:7). Simon created a new religion, “Gnosticism.” In that religion, Christ is misrepresented as something He was not. Rather than a Man of flesh and blood who died on the Cross, it was a phantasm. Remembering that Adam and Eve had no concept of death, neither did the Gnostics. God in three “persons” died on the Cross. He gave up the Holy Ghost (phantasm) but His Holy Ghost lived on after Jesus’s Flesh gave up the Ghost. If Jesus did not die for mankind, then there was no redemption. Without the need for redemption, then people’s sins do not need justification. With no need for justice, then people are free to do as they wish, and with corporate sin comes mob rule and mob vengeance.

  Gnostics did not kill God; the mob did. However, Gnostics justified the mob. After all, their narrative is that no one was killed, so the mob is innocent. With that type of thinking, mob justice was born. The world has become convinced that there is no God who will judge justly, so they turn to social justice.  Think on that for a moment. Divine justice would have been that Barabbas suffer the cross. What did society do? They killed the wrong man. They sought justice, but it was misplaced. One man suffered instead of the unjust.  Social justice is based on true natural law. Original sin was doing what comes naturally in that the sinner is the natural man: “The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned” (1 Cor 2:14).

  Rather than mob law being based on Divine Law, it is whatever the people feel is right. In other words, natural law is based on the emotion of what feels right to them is what is right. At the present, many feel emotional. Because George Floyd died needlessly, they feel under attack themselves but they are not.  However, Officer Chauvin did not attack anyone but George Floyd so feeling under attack is irrational.

  The black race was no more under attack than the white race. In fact, statistically, white men are more under attack by the system because they are more numerous. Few Caucasians felt under attack, and the mob is defending the wrong man. They should be defending the spiritual man. Sure, black lives matter, but blacks and liberal whites should redeem George Floyd much more effectively:

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly. (Rom 12:1-3)

  Society has taught people to think in the terms of color. People who dwell on color have conformed to the world. Jesus never mentioned color in His ministry. Salvation, even under the Law, was for everyone. The Jews were even mistaken about their own estimation of themselves. How so? The Jews were God’s chosen and peculiar people (Deut 14:2), but they failed to think things acceptable to God What was one of those things? “Ye (Christians) are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people” (1 Pet 2:9). In other words, no one race is better than another, and in God’s eyes, all have sinned, and all need His love and grace.

  So, what should people of any color do? Hang their colors on the Cross — “Present your bodies a living sacrifice.” That is true justice! Bodies are mere “containers” whose covering is colored flesh. When flesh decays, the color is gone; that leaves only the colorless soul. Most likely in Heaven, resurrected bodies will be Adam’s color — perhaps earth tone; perhaps clay; perhaps sand, or perhaps loam.

  Scripture says to do that is “your reasonable service.” In other words, it is rational to not think in terms of color. Irrational people have a mild form of insanity. The world is not about color and neither will Heaven be. Thinking that way is divisive. Whites who think in terms of color often dominate those of a different color. Blacks who think in terms of color feel victimized by those of another color. Are they though? Does not affirmative action and the EEO change the law to benefit those of color who are in the minority? By law, the playing field is already level and attempting to make it more level, unlevels it.

  The gate to Heaven has no scales. It is a straight gate and narrow way (Mat 7:14). Color has no privileges. Whites need to get over the idea that they are supreme and blacks that whites are privileged. Why is that? To serve is a privilege? Jesus came to serve mankind; not to be served. He came to die for the world, not the world to die for Him. When He asked to sacrifice the flesh, that means only the flesh. By grace, the soul shall be rewarded. That is not to say that killing Jesus was justified. He ignored justice for Him but expects justice from all others.

  What is justice? That only God judge. The mob cannot judge without emotion. Jesus has emotions as well. He wants that none should perish. The mob wants that all others who think differently than they perish. The mob condemns the world and its institutions when they judge so harshly. Judging fairly is using the same metrics as you would want yourself judged (Mat 7:2). Would blacks want to be judged again by “Judge Lynch?” Well, that is the way Officer Chauvin is judged, and even millions of other innocent police officers. Would the mob want to be judged as harshly as they judged Jesus? Probably not!

  The mob, tiring of castigating the police, is taking out their harsh feelings on statues. Now that Jesus is dead, all things Jesus are castigated. Not even His Law can be allowed on public property! That is how much of the world despises Jesus; that the Words written by His own Finger is not allowed in the US public eye. The Cross, the “monument” to Jesus, now offends people. Even wearing the Cross is offensive. At the present, the “ghost” of Billy Graham is under attack because the mob cannot stomach the reminder of Jesus. That is irrational thinking and mob insanity.

  Or is it insanity? Perhaps it is the nature of men becoming more like the “beasts” they are. The natural man roars like a lion as Satan would do (1 Pet 5:8). With the mob, can you not hear the roaring? The protesters are those who prod the lions to roar. The roar is “I want… I want… I want” and the lions think their wants should be met because they are the oppressed. Lions by instinct think they deserve the life of a weaker being and natural men are no different.

  Poverty oppresses without regard to color or nationality. The penalty for sin was mild. Adam and Eve could have been killed by “Officer Jesus.” Instead, their penalty was a life of hard work (Gen 3:19). Jesus leveled the playing field by recognizing that all have sinned and deserve no glory (Rom 3:23). All races have been oppressed since the beginning.

  In Africa, black tribes oppressed one another, and made slaves of previously free men. In the Middle East, Romans made slaves of Semitic peoples. In Egypt, black Ethiopians made slaves of white Egyptians, and throughout the world, socialism has made slaves of all people without regard to color. For them to enslave those who are less significant in their eyes, socialists must distinguish color. Socialism judges harshly; they judge by socio-economic class and by “soviets.” Soviets are no more than different races of people that must be subjugated and oppressed.

  Peter turned on Jesus. He sat quietly and watched the mob persecute Jesus. Often, it is friends, family, and colleagues who turn on their own. Jesus knew they would. He said so, “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law” (Mat 10:34-35). That is always true. Kings often had their sons, mothers (regents), brothers, and sisters turn on them to be kings and queens themselves. The natural man is arrogant and narcissistic. They want to be gods and rule.

  The chief priests and elders in Jesus day desired to be “kings.” Their positions were as religious leaders, but they wanted more power. Even the apostles argued about who would have more power in the Kingdom of God. In the end, they all turned on Jesus.

  That is seen in modern times. Nobles often turn on royalty, and even bishops turn on other bishops. Many of them, historically, have wanted to be popes. In government, that is the same way. “Czars” want to be president and those in the Deep State will do anything to rule. In monarchies, pretenders to the throne were the “Deep State.” For Jesus, the “Deep State” was the Sanhedrin and its leaders. All Deep States use the people as tools for their own advancement. They depend on the gullibility of those they oppress. Duping people into doing what they would not do themselves is the ultimate oppression. The mob becomes mere robots who when the switch is thrown, they go into action. Unfortunately, mobs are only programmed to do certain things, and programmed to the law is not the case.

  The programmed mob is given a list of activities and they become automatons as they do things without regard to standards. The automatons are programmed with the capability to learn. They can watch the main “processors” and learn from them. The Programmer plants processors in the mob to teach the automatons their functions. It is done without emotion, but the automatons are programmed by signals that excite their movement. Mobs do what their masters have programmed them to do, and not by coincidence, the young are easiest to program because there are less “IOS” to overcome.

Some of the mob are older people. They did not originally have automation programmed into them but had to be reprogrammed. The institutions of higher learning (second level of programming) altered their natural programs to do what is imbued unto them. They are changed from Dr. Jekyls into Mr. Hydes and like the good doctor, do not know what they are doing when night falls. It is as if they are different creatures and they are!

  Socialism must change people. It depends on remolding them from what they were before. Now the key is to get them to believe that they have oppressed others just by existing in white, old guy privilege. They bestow way too much power on white men because most white men have also been oppressed. The oppressed cannot oppress. They do not have the power or money to do that. For instance, those in Appalachian poverty cannot oppress blacks because that is not in their economy. Neither can inner city whites oppress blacks because their economy is the same.

  Who then are the oppressors? Those who appear to be friends. Jesus own neighborhood could not stand Him. His own apostles were part of the system that allowed Him to be crucified. Who are the oppressors? Look first at those who pose as your friends. For those with little discernment, let it be clear; Democrats have always oppressed their Negroes. What makes them think that is no longer the case?

  For many, their worst enemies are those in other denominations or even fellow church members. For leaders, often their worst enemies are in their own parties, or even for the President, those in his circle. John Bolton seems to be President Trump’s “elder” who was against him, and perhaps Generals “Mad Dog” Mattis and Kelly were others who sought to persecute him.

  People in power generally all have those who will undermine them for their own power. Even Democrats have the “gang of four” which is quickly growing into a mob than want nothing more than the blood of Trump, and the blood of capitalists and Christians by diminishing Trump. For that end, the “blood” of other Democrats is an acceptable sacrifice.
