“That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD”
–Isaiah 30:9
The cries are frequent, seemingly sincere–impassioned even–and loud.
“America has turned its back on God!”
“The country needs to return to God!”
“God’s judgment is falling upon our country! Our nation is under God’s judgment!”
“This country needs to get back to God!”
The cries are frequent, seemingly sincere–impassioned even–and loud.
And they are just so much blah-blah-blah.
BEWARE THE CRIES
A few observations:
1- The truth of the matter?
America’s back is very familiar to God.
The USA can’t return to God because it was never near Him.
God’s judgment has been on the USA for decades–centuries even.
The USA is the sickliest industrialized country in the world–by far.
Does the reader think this odd?
That the world’s richest, most opulent collection of vitamin-chugging, fitness-obsessed self-worshipers, with the world’s best health care, has been reduced to riding in motorized scooters, lugging oxygen bottles and walking with canes; is situation merely just a matter of “bad luck”?
So where were all those who cry of God’s judgment 25 years ago when times were still good; when their 401K wasn’t threatened; when their trust in man and the schemes of man looked like a good bet?
2- It’s only when the situation is visibly going south that the cries of “God’s judgment” begin. These cries ring as hollow as their silence did previously.
These cries go up regularly during times of turmoil. In good times, those who cried are concerned with more worldly matters.
3- There is NEVER a word about Jesus–only some vague, unspecified “god.”
4- What church-goers refuse to do individually, they wail for the nation to do as a whole.
5- There is a great confusion between the actions of men and the judgment of God.
The fear of man is what the criers smell, NOT the fear of God.
MEANWHILE, the false preachers and deceitful workers fill the air with their mourning and wails.
For God Almighty to abandon a country, that country FIRST had to pay more than lip service to Him.
“He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.”
–Mark 7:6
These pleas for a pagan nation–a nation consumed with the things of this world–to “return to god” are a sign of the coming judgment. Because the USA DOES NOT know God Almighty, how can it know if it is worshiping Him or not?
ANSWER: It can’t.
And that is where this end times deception is headed.
In times of great calamity and chaos, men will, in their great fear (and with no other options), cry out to God. And in end times America, they will get a reply.
Only it will NOT be God Almighty, but a pretender.
BEWARE THE CRIES
These pleas to “return to god” will increase and get louder. They will lead the country–the great, great majority of whom do not know God Almighty and His Son, Jesus Christ from Satan–straight down the broad road to perdition.
When the reader hears these cries, run the other way–and immediately do the things necessary to be right before a holy God.
Actually, DON’T WAIT: get right with God Almighty NOW.
There are many verses in the Bible dedicated to this very situation.
“Then said the LORD unto me, Pray not for this people for their good. When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.”
–Jeremiah 14:11-12
“Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.”
–Proverbs 1:24-31
After every pause in the action, those who cry return to their “normal” way of life; that is, they return to the WORLD, not God. They return to the buildings they call churches where they worship a god of their own making.
And that “god“–which is worshiped across the country known as the United States of America–will give Americans exactly that for which they have lived, worked and prayed.
Beware the cries of those who urge a country which has NEVER worshiped God Almighty to “return to Him.” They speak with forked tongues.
What can one do?
Fear God Almighty before the chaos and panic arrive.
Pray for wisdom.
Pray to be kept from deception.
Pray to have your eyes opened to the truth of God’s Word.
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3
“And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.”
—Luke 10:18
THE CHURCHES: GROUND ZERO FOR THE END TIMES DECEPTION
When the seventy disciples returned to Jesus with joy at the very demons being cast out in his name, Jesus made the previous observation about Satan. A look at the original text makes it clear that Jesus was remarking on the general fall of Satan’s kingdom through the exploits of the seventy who were defeating the agents of the Satan.
It is good to be reminded from time to time that Satan is an already defeated foe, but ONLY through believers being washed in the blood of Jesus Christ.
The reminder is important because, as one looks around, the deception of living in these times is everywhere 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Deception is in every bit of media one reads or views. Deception is in every product one buys. Deception is in the music on hears; in the advertisements one sees; in the products one buys and in the plans which are made for tomorrow.
Deception oozes from every pore of the world system in which the true believer is surrounded during his stay on earth.
It is ESPECIALLY true that deception has overtaken the visible church.
Satan is the father of lies and is very good at lying. So are his servants. Every public teacher seems to be false or deceived–or both. In the times in which we live, very few are who they claim to be.
Whether it is from books, DVDs, sermons or daily devotionals, deception seems to pour from practically everything that bears the label of “Christian.” This type of deception is even worse because most let their guard down when reading or listening to something that is identified as “Christian.”
That is a huge mistake.
The Bible tells us that the man of sin will rise from the midst of the Church. This is not a cult or some futuristic evil satanic Church. It is clear from the writings of Paul, John and Peter that this Church is the apostate Church which was once called “Christian.” It is a church perverted over time by dozens of daily compromises, deception and a people who can’t be bothered to read God’s Word for themselves, but instead rely on lying hirelings to tell them what they want to hear.
Church-goers are comfortable with their churches and their churches are part of the end times satanic church. The inhabitants of the churches listen to non-biblical sermons, have their ears tickled at social functions and concentrate (knowingly or not) on either the things of this world or the occult.
The ones in the pulpit focus on many things other than the truth of God’s Word–and the people want it that way. In short: it is the Church with which the great majority are all too familiar with today.
God will always maintain a remnant–but it is just that: a remnant; a few. Beware of those who advertise themselves as the remnant church. The real remnant is too busy for self-promotion. The real remnant will soon enough be on the run from the ones doing this advertising.
There may be a tendency for the true believer to become discouraged at times at the ubiquitous deception; to become disheartened at the realization there are few safe havens left in the world. But we are commanded to “be of good cheer.”
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
—John 16:33
Elijah was on the run, fearing for his life: Jezebel had sent word she was going to hunt him down and kill him. The great prophet got so discouraged, he asked God to kill him because “I, even I only, am left.”
“And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.”
—1 Kings 19:14
But God never leaves Himself without witnesses. He informed Elijah that there were yet thousands who were faithful.
“Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.”
—1 Kings 19:18
This is something for the believer to keep in mind when the deception and darkness get so thick it can literally be felt.
Rely even more on the Bible–which is God’s Word and settled forever in heaven.
Rely even more on prayer.
Try every spirit.
Engage the enemy in real spiritual warfare–not the junk that worldly pretenders promote.
“Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.”
–Acts 14:22
Or is the reader deceived into believing he is something he is not?

THE MANUFACTURED WORLD WHICH HAS BEEN PULLED OVER YOUR EYES
“We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented, it’s as simple as that.”
–Christoff, The Truman Show (1998)
Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work…when you go to church…when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Morpheus: [leans in closer to Neo] That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind.
—The Matrix
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
–John 8:32
“Today we live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups… So I ask, in my writing, What is real?
Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms…I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind.
” that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world”
–Revelation 12:9
“Have you ever stood and stared at it, marveled at its beauty, its genius? Billions of people just living out their lives, oblivious.”
—The Matrix
“If his was more than just a vague ambition, if he was absolutely determined to discover the truth, there’s no way we could prevent him.”
–Christoff, The Truman Show (1998)
“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
–John 8:36
Is the reader ready for the truth?
Or will the reader remain deceived, bewitched and under the spell?
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

Then, the ‘revolution’ could spread to Philadelphia the next week and a “Triumph of Rebellion” could be celebrated over the next three-four months until the election in the country which worships rebellion.
Rebellion is a VERY useful end times theme.
Just a thought…
“And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse [Jesus Christ], and against his army.”
–Revelation 19:19
“An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.”
–Proverbs 17:11
“For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.”
–1Samuel 15:23
You can’t shame or humiliate modern celebrities (or modern politicians–Ed.). What used to be called shame and humiliation is now called publicity. And forget traditional character assassination; if you say a modern celebrity is an adulterer, a pervert and a drug addict, all it means is that you’ve read his autobiography.”
-—P.J. O’Rourke
“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”

THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
-—1 Corinthians 1:18-19
The Army last week warned all military personnel in the United States to avoid 37 American cities this week over concerns that anti-police protests, dubbed “Days of Rage,” are planned and could turn violent.
NOTE: When the world speaks of the “New World Order,”–and it is something which is spoken quite often by world leaders– it is the beginning of deception not the end.

Whose job is it to prepare this generation with work skills? Some might say the family; others would claim the schools and universities.
How prepared could a generation be to
deal with the mess which the last couple of generations have left?
All that being said, it’s hard to feel sorry for a youth which believes it is amazing and possessed of a unique and wonderful skill set–and yet can do nothing of practical value. Again, the youth learned this from somewhere.
You won’t see the turmoil on the front page of any paper. And no one will really talk about the panic in the banking sector right now. Part of this is because the bankers know that worse comes to worse, taxpayers will be on the hook for any significant problems.
The Weird Science of Forecasting Global Crisis – The CIA uses occult powers to do this. But the CIA has ALWAYS been about accessing illegitimate supernatural power. Which is fitting for the intelligence service of the world’s foremost occult end times nation.
Yet, everything that the American comes in contact with daily says otherwise. Instead of relying on and leaning on the Lord, Americans are taught from an early age to be self-reliant, to “fend for yourself,” to “man up,” to “pull yourself up by your own bootstraps.”
To walk by faith, is to live in the confident expectation of things that are to come; in the belief of the existence of unseen realities; and suffering them to influence us as if they were seen. The people of this world are influenced by the things that are seen. They live for wealth, honour, splendour, praise, for the objects which this world can furnish, and as if there were nothing which is unseen, or as if they ought not to be influenced by the things which are unseen. The Christian, on the contrary, has a firm conviction of the reality of the glories of heaven; of the fact that the Redeemer is there; of the fact that there is a crown of glory; and he lives and acts as if that were all real, and as if he saw it all. The simple account of faith, and of living by faith is, that we live and act as if these things were true, and suffer them to make an impression on our mind according to their real nature.
—Barnes New Testament Notes; 2 Corinthians 5:7
Learning to walk by faith is scary business. It goes against everything the world teaches. It especially goes against the natural man’s reliance on sight, senses, feelings, emotions and experiences.
However hard it may be, walking by faith is not an option for the Christian believer. It is the way one walks when one has chosen the narrow path.
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.”
–Luke 17:26-29
NOTE: The email box was SWAMPED with emails crammed with sensationalistic articles from the Alternative Corporate Media about George Zimmerman (the photo of Zimmerman at the link is interesting. The trinket around his neck may not be an upside down cross, but it appears that way in the photo), the circus trial, Trayvon Martin, and the violence, coming violence or imagined violence of black-on-white-on-black racial tensions.
The George Zimmerman-Trayvon Martin excuse for what’s about to be unleashed is just getting started. There will be incidents, provoked and otherwise, which will be spun into sensationalistic hype–if one can believe it–MORE than we have already seen in the Corporate Media and the Alternative Corporate Media.
Those who think that uncertainty and chaos reign now have no idea.
The chaos and uncertainty to come will be one of the the excuses needed for a (further) police/military crackdown–which many Americans will then welcome as the remedy for the (manufactured) chaos. Americans are–and will continue to be–induced into relinquishing hard-earned freedoms in exchange for the will-o-the-wisp of security.
The endgame? It’s tough to say whether Zimmerman will be THE catalyst or merely a warm-up to racial violence. Probably just a warm-up. While there is a sizable pool of Americans who can be led around by the nose by what they read in the Corporate Media, there is still a larger group who cannot. This writer suspects that more build-up will be needed to overcome the innate good will that resides still in the majority of Americans.
George Zimmerman found not guilty of murder in Trayvon Martin’s death – By the time you read this (this particular item is being posted a little before midnight Saturday July 13), we will know if the Corporate Media was successful in stoking the white-black tensions–which they did much to create through their coverage of Zimmerman/Martin–into violence in the streets.
Here’s an example of a story that some outlets were reporting as “Black Mob Hunts down man in Cincinnati” The “mob” was three 16-year-old suspects released from a group house. However, those facts didn’t make it into the story until the next-to-last paragraph. WND writes these stories up as “Black Mobs” and “racial attacks” stories. Sites such as InfoWars then fans the flames. Writers too lazy to do any research then re-blog them and–voila! Black-on-white-on-black racial mobs violence!
The Case Against Summer Vacation – The biggest “case” against summer vacation is that the authorities/schools don’t have control of kids for 10 weeks of the year. This is unacceptable. 10 weeks represents a LOT of indoctrination time lost.
The House approved an amendment to a $32.1 billion spending bill Tuesday evening that would take money away from the Environmental Protection Agency and put it into coal country.
“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master. “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do. ALL political “news” is narrative.
Whenever the government institutes a power grab, the conservative press usually 1) tries to persuade its audience there is no other choice but to capitulate; 2) offers vain hope that a fight will be mounted to roll back the usurpers; OR 3) adopts a jaded“Ah, you know, sooner or later it would have happened. That’s just the way of the world.”
