It was 90 degrees here in New York today! People were sweating like President Trump watching Rudy Giuliani on “Hannity.”

“Giuliani said Trump “knew the general arrangement,” but not the “specifics.” You know, kind of how Trump understands foreign policy and domestic policy, and the Constitution and the English language.”
–-James Corden (2018)

“White House insiders say that President Trump feels comfortable with Rudy Giuliani because they’re from the same generation. Giuliani said, “We share common values like hard work, patriotism, and ditching your first two wives.”

Donald Trump Prophecy?

“The forces of safety are afoot in the land. I, for one, believe it is a conspiracy— a conspiracy of Safety Nazis shouting “Sieg Health” and seeking to trammel freedom, liberty, and large noisy parties. The Safety Nazis advocate gun control, vigorous exercise, and health foods. The result can only be a disarmed, exhausted, and half-starved population ready to acquiesce to dictatorship of some kind.”
-—P.J. O’Rourke

QUOTES: A Few Thoughts on Voting

“The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
Winston Churchill

Things of This World: Faith and Trust in Politics

“But actually, he thought as he readjusted the Ministry of Plenty’s figures, it was not even forgery. It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another. Most of the material that you were dealing with had no connection with anything in the real world, not even the kind of connection that is contained in a direct lie. Statistics were just as much a fantasy in their original version as in their rectified version. A great deal of time you were expected to make them up out of your head.”
–On changing government statistics – George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four

POLLS: Another Way to Lie

Do you believe the media? Then why do you believe their lying polls?

“Political campaigns today are all side shows, all honors, all bombast, glitter, and speeches. These are for the most part unrelated to the main business of studying the party scientifically, of supplying the public with party, candidate, platform, and performance, and selling the public these ideas and products.”
Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)

POLLS: The Fiction of Polls and Public Opinion

“There is no public opinion. There is only published opinion.”
–Winston Churchill

The Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy and Polls

“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.”
John 20:31

“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 1:16power-of-salvation-the-gospel-of-Jesus-Christ

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“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

IT IS A MYSTERY!

Questions, questions

11 extraordinary out-of-place artifacts that science can’t explain – And Science, with its current collection of stories, will not be able to explain these because Science has painted itself into a corner.

Because “Science” has told people that humans have been around for “hundreds of thousands of years” and because Science has also told people that the earth is “millions of years old,” whenever evidence to the contrary crops up (and there is an abundance of it), Science is stuck for an answer.

Science”  is then increasingly forced to rely on its Great Answer (“Aliens!“), which it always pretends to be reluctant to give.

However, because Science (like the rest of the world) deals mostly in deception, Aliens! was where it was headed all along.

Meanwhile, the depraved and very advanced pre-Flood civilizations continue to be portrayed by Science’s worldly sister and partner-in-crime (History) as loin-cloth wearing savages.

Which is why Science will never have an answer for “out-of-place” artifacts which doesn’t point to “Aliens!

CASH FOR CLUNKERS

car - retro interior

A Clunker of a ProgramCash for Clunkers was KNOWN to hurt car buyers, future car buyers, used car buyers, the working poor, all who bought used parts, etc.

At the time, it was not hard to find dozens of articles written by non-Corporate Media which pointed out these huge flaws.  The Corporate Media and the DC political cartel pretended they did not know any better.

NOW the Corporate Media pretends to have discovered the many drawbacks of destroying millions of running and fixable cars?

In short, Cash for Clunkers paid taxpayers’ money to all who destroyed the wealth of cars, while driving up the cost of used cars (since so many were destroyed) for the working poor.

Cash for Clunkers not only was the ultimate government program, it was the ultimate Hurt America program. Cash for Clunkers paid good money to destroy used cars and used parts.

SPOOKY ATHEISTS

SCARY ATHEIST BEDTIMES STORIES: Among the fables the Corporate Media loves to tell Christians, none is more frightening than the Scary Atheists are Coming to Get You!

Atheists to launch first TV channel dedicated to godlessness – Spooky atheist tales are what the Corporate Media tells people sitting in the pews at the churches to scare them.

The pew-sitters then repeat the fables in the hopes that their other “Christian” friends haven’t heard them yet.

Atheists,” “homosexuals” and “satanists” are the favorite topics of conversation among the counterfeit church-goers. It’s just some of the words they use to con others into believing they live lives acceptable to God Almighty.

(Another way is to throw around words from the Old Covenant and to avoid saying the name of Jesus by saying “Yahshua.”)

According to the Luciferians, atheists are one of the groups targeted for future elimination–as are Christians.

The church folk can breathe a sigh of relief.

You are not targeted for elimination, you are targeted for sitting in the pews of another Church: the whore of Babylon.

Most church folk won’t notice much difference.

MEDIA NARRATIVES ALERT

“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.

“American journalism (like the journalism of any other country) is predominantly paltry and worthless. Its pretensions are enormous, but its achievements are insignificant.”

BLESSED ARE THE PERSECUTED

Blessed are the persecuted

“Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.”
–Matthew 5:11-12

The world tries to scare, frighten and herd counterfeit Christians with stories of martyrdom and persecution.

Believers are assured time and again by God’s Word that persecution for the name of Jesus is something glorious.

“and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.”
–Acts 5:41

IN FACT, one of the ways one can tell the wheat from the chaff is by a person’s attitude about persecution for the name of Jesus. The righteous KNOW they are going to be persecuted: it is guaranteed, whether they live in the very last days or today.

“Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.”
–2Timothy 3:12

Persecution, Tribulation, Troubles, Trials: What the Bible says to Christians

The times of coming chaos are a necessary prelude to Jesus Christ’s coming eternal kingdom. The days before that Jesus’ second coming will be filled with persecution and tribulation.

For unbelievers, those days will be filled with fear, anxiety and terror. For the believer, those days will be filled with opportunities for eternal glory.

Suffering Persecution for Jesus Christ is Glory

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

FOUR YEARS AGO

ANOTHER ATTACK ON FAMILIES

attack

Liberals, try talking about family breakdown – The government’s attack on the family has proceeded in America (and elsewhere) since before the country began. It hasn’t mattered if liberals or conservatives ruled the roost in Washington, the American family has always been one of their favorite targets.

In 1965, Democratic Senator, Daniel P. Moynihan wrote the following about the black family. 

The fundamental problem, in which this is most clearly the case, is that of family structure. The evidence — not final, but powerfully persuasive — is that the Negro family in the urban ghettos is crumbling. A middle class group has managed to save itself, but for vast numbers of the unskilled, poorly educated city working class the fabric of conventional social relationships has all but disintegrated… So long as this situation persists, the cycle of poverty and disadvantage will continue to repeat itself.

The article uses this as proof that what ails Baltimore is families.

And the article would be right.  But 1- Baltimore is not the only problem area; and, 2- It’s ALL families, not just the black family, which have been blown up by the policies of the American government.
