The wall between the separation of Church does not exist. It is not part of the U.S. Constitution, and if it was, then it would be prejudicial against those who believe in a divine Providence. It would be like saying that a Christian’s voice must remain silent, and it would be a form of censorship.
Of course, the Law of God should
not have precedence in civil matters but be weighed along with everything else.
If its tenants are good, and they are, then they should be as applicable as
scientific or philosophical ideas.
Who can argue that the teachings
of Christ are bad? If anyone does, then it is for selfish interests. Democracies
only work if the citizens are unselfish and care about the well-being of the
people.
For instance, drugs are ripping
apart the fabric of America, and to say it is not, is sheer ignorance. Drug-use
is as deadly as pulling the trigger of a gun if not more so and the biggest
difference is that death is so slow that it goes unnoticed.
Baptists particularly wanted that
wall there, but it never got there, fortunately. In that the mother country had
a theocratic monarchy that caused turmoil; it was wise to allow people to
choose their own beliefs.
England was sort of a
dictatorship because the religion of some, if different than the State’s, resulted
in their persecution. The Constitution prohibits persecution with the First
Amendment. Because those who govern now think the Constitution is antiquated,
makes it possible for religious intolerance. Thus, anything goes in society
except what Christians consider as good things.
As scripture says, “For we
wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places” (Ephes 6:12).
It is not President Biden that is
the root cause of our problems but spiritual wickedness. He has a kind
of religion but not the religion of Christ in him. As such, America is ruled by
principalities — the “origin” or “active cause”
“The love of money (Greek; philargyria)
is the root of all evil” (1 Tim 6:10). So, one need only to follow the money
trail and the root cause is found.
Philargyria is not just
coined or printed money, but avarice (ibid). Avarice in archaic English
is “covetousness”
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. (Isa 14:13-14)
Biden, without Christ, is doing
what is in his genome. Without a new genome (born again), then he remains a
principality; the very reason that we should pray for our leaders. Our government
uses the Big Lie because it has always worked! Who thinks that we still live in
a democratically elected constitutional republic? Almost everyone because of
the Big Lie.
Generally, each day commences
with a huge lie; not the Big One, but the many lies that when accumulated,
become the Big Lie.
Today’s lie popped up immediately
on my computer. The modern term for that is “narrative.”
A narrative is “a way of
presenting or understanding a situation or series of events that reflects and
promotes a particular point of view or set of values” (ibid). Today’s
narrative, compounding the Big Lie is the headline, “America Is Starting to
Really Hate Donald Trump”
They are not really starting
to hate Donald Trump, but some hated him before, and they still do now. On the
other hand, people are really beginning to hate Joe Biden — a year ago he had
36% unfavorable and now 53% unfavorable
Why the headline that makes Trump
seem hated? To multiply the hatred for him. Why not headline Biden’s poor poll
numbers? So that people will be happy with mediocrity!
You are being programmed. That in
psychology is conditioning the people to accept misinformation.
Everybody wonders how Nazis persuaded
the majority to accept cruelty. They were conditioned by repetition, or as George
Orwell said, “'If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it
will be believed.” In other words, many repetition of lies make one truth.
When millions of people read that
Trump is a hated man, that makes it truth. To not suffer criticism, you accept
the lie that Trump is hated. That is exactly why he has unfavorable
polling despite America was greater when he was president than it is now.
Orwell continued, “Intellectual
honesty is a crime in any totalitarian country; but even in England it is not
exactly profitable to speak and write the truth.” Even in the once “United
States” it is not profitable to speak and write the truth. Why? Because, as we
have seen under Biden, the truth-tellers are “canceled” as if they no longer
exist (“cancel culture”)!
Pontius Pilate asked the very
Platonian question, “What is truth?” Truth is factual information, or reality. Jesus,
as Pilate soon realized, was who He said He was. “They” said He was a lunatic,
but the fact is that “they” were all either ignorant or in pursuit of
avarice — they all had political ambitions either in government or religious
affairs.
At the apex of the pandemic, the
use of propaganda resulted in people standing in lines to get insulted. First,
the government offered rewards for obedience, then when that failed, they
mandated vaccinations that failed to do what vaccines should do — prevent the
spread of viruses.
People, trusting the science,
were trusting low-life greedy people seeking avarice. Most of you fell for the
Big Lie during the pandemic; that you were killing people by not trusting the
science!
The government, liars that they are,
became your “god” for so many people. Just as Jesus said, “They know not what
they do,” and fortunately for Christians, God understands that you were
deceived by the Wicked Ones. That is because of grace; like when Eve sinned,
God knew that she had been deceived.
There are many “Big Lies:”
·
Love yourselves.
·
Follow your hearts.
·
Believe the science.
·
Do what you want.
·
Forgive yourselves.
·
Have pride in all things. (Such as in homosexuality.)
·
God is so loving that He will not punish.
·
Positive thoughts yield good results. (Try that
in Vegas.)
·
Marijuana is entirely beneficial; neither is it
a gateway drug. (So, they say.)
·
I can do as I wish and be forgiven before I die.
·
I am saved, so I need not worry about principalities.
·
Christians should refrain from political
expression.
·
Christians should respect their leaders. (How
about Hitler or Hitler-types?)
·
Unborn babies are not human.
·
The climate did not change until humans
interfered.
·
Ad Infineum.
You, hopefully, get the point. About everybody is gullible. Satan (aka Lucifer, the Devil) conditions you to accept about anything.
Just whose pawn is Biden? Whose
pawn is Putin? Lucifer’s. They do what he wills for them to do because the
truth escapes them.
Why is drug usage so high? People
want to escape the truth. Why is socialism in vogue? Because people prefer to
live the lie… that things are free with no work required for the getting.
That sounds good, does it not?
But “From those with ability; to those with needs” (Karl Marx) sounds appealing
to those with needs but not so much to those who use their abilities and work
for things. As such, the communist/socialist mantra fails because it divides
the nation, and now even the globe.
The world proffers the Big Lie.
For me, the lie was that GMC was too big to fail, then it failed. No longer
could I depend on GMC.
For so many, the United States
has been too successful to fail, all the while it is failing. Although people
cover their eyes to the government’s failures, does not change the fact that
they are failing.
For instance, the Big Lie in 2019
was that there were no rioters when anyone could see the rioting. The media
communicated that so frequently that for half the population, there was no
rioting, although the truth was that cities were burning.
Now, there is no inflation just because
those in charge say that everything is good. Because they say that does not
mean there is no inflation.
Right now, America is in
recession and people still act as if everything is good. They deny inflation
even when car costs are out of sight and grocery bills are outlandish. Many of
those suffering the socialist illusion will vote for those who promise the most
and deliver the least. Democrats, as Jonathan Gruber admitted, “Depend on the
stupidity of the American voter.”
Eve did that! God never told her
anything. She was ignorant of the Law of God. Adam told her, but she preferred
to believe the lie rather than Adam. People still prefer the lie to truth because
they still expect good things from God just for the taking!
Eve was under a spell… “The
serpent (Lucifer) beguiled me” (Gen 3:13). The “Serpent” is still beguiling about
everybody. Most people are under his spell. He is the “principality” — the
first order of things; the very being that brought chaos to the world is the principle
to whom people turn for direction.
Because Eve is the “mother of all
living” (Gen 3:20) everyone alive has guile (duplicity) in them… “The Spirit is
indeed willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Mat 26:41). As such, we do so many
things that God does not want us to do.
Because Eve was deceived by the
cunning serpent, everyone alive are easily conned with the Big Lie. It is
genetic.
Adam and Eve had never seen death
before. That they would die was absurd, even if they had understood the concept
of death. That they would die was so unlikely, or unbelievable, that they
ignored the Word of God. Still, to this day, most people believe they will never
die despite their unrighteousness and defection from God. God is no fool; and He
cannot be conned with the doctrines of men.
The Biggest “Big Lie” is in the
Church, ironically; that a Christian is always a Christian just because of barely
enough faith to pray one time.
Paul wrote about a fellow
Christian that he loved that he himself is “always labouring fervently for you
in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God” (Col
4:12). Why would Paul pray fervently for someone to “stand perfect” if that
person (Epaphras) was already standing tall? Standing tall is not “falling
away” (Heb 6:6), or defection from God.
That sums up this commentary. The
point is that deception is commonplace in the world, and even Christians fall
prey to the wiles of the Devil; probably more so than the atheist who already
belongs to Satan.
