“Donald Trump unveiled his immigration policy and now he’s getting a lot of flak. His policy would have prevented his own grandfather from coming to America. That explains his new campaign slogan: “Vote Trump to prevent another Trump.”
–-Conan (2015)

“As you know, President Trump frequently lashes out at the media, calling it “fake news.” Well today, close to 350 newspapers across the United States coordinated to publish editorials criticizing Trump’s attacks — 350 newspapers ran these editorials. All of these newspapers coordinated together, because nothing will convince Trump that the media isn’t aligned against him quite like every newspaper running anti-Trump editorials on the same day. And just to make sure that Trump sees them all, each editorial begins with “Two-for-one Big Macs.”
–-James Corden (2018)

“Jeb Bush cheated on his diet and had a fried Snickers bar, pork on a stick, and a beer. Jeb Bush said he ate it so at least he could see some of his numbers go up.”

“Trump found a new way to suppress those who dare criticize him. He took the rare and unusual step of revoking the security clearance held by former CIA Director John Brennan. Trump said he revoked Brennan’s clearance because of risks posed by his “erratic behavior, for making unfounded, outrageous allegations and wild outbursts on the internet.” In other words, he literally described himself.”
–-Jimmy Kimmel (2018)

Donald Trump Prophecy?

“You can’t shame or humiliate modern celebrities [or 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

QUOTES: A Few Thoughts on Voting

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

Others might insist that a five-minute conversation with one of the political puppets is the best argument against democracy.

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 1:16

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

The Gospel is Hidden to Those who are Lost

MAY 2022

THE END TIMES WORLD IS A DARK, DARK PLACE. JESUS IS THE LIGHT.

The world–particularly the end times world–is a dark, dark place.

The darkness is caused by DECEPTION.

“And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.”
–1JOHN 5:19

[One of the deceptions is the Satan-approved Bible translations which change 1JOHN 5:19 from “the whole world lieth in wickedness.” to “the whole world lies in the Wicked One.” But ANYONE who has studied the verse in the original Greek KNOWS that the original KJV translation is the CORRECT ONE.]

“For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.”
–Isaiah 60:2

Though the world be covered in the darkness of deception, Jesus is the light of the world.

“And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”
–John 1:5

“…he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.”
–Daniel 2:22

“Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”
–John 8:12

Time is growing short.

Follow Jesus Christ.

Follow the light.

20 Bible Verses and QUOTES About God Taking Care of His Followers

NINE YEARS AGO

DISOBEDIENCE IN THE HOUSE OF GOD

“And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.”
—Luke 16:15

One of the most-quoted Bible verses these days seems to be 2 Chronicles 7:14

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

A great many church-goers quote it while begging the people of the USA to repent and turn to the Lord so that America can continue being the Land of Worldly Opportunity for them and their families.

But that is a misapplication of the verse to be sure.

The verse is not referring to the pagans or heathens to turn from their wicked ways. It is referring to what God’s people need to do.

Does the Bible really mean “Those who imagine themselves to be God’s people” when it uses the term “God’s people“?

Those who sit in the Sunday social clubs known as the churches imagine it to be so.

Because those who sit in the churches flatter themselves.

A casual look around the United States is enough to convince most that God is not blessing the Land of the Free.

In fact, God has turned the Land of the Free over to its sin.

Which means apparently God’s people have not turned from their wicked ways.

And judgment begins at the house of God.

“For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?”
—1 Peter 4:17

Deception and disobedience go hand-in-hand in the American churches, particularly disobedience and self-deception. After disobeying God on any number of everyday issues, church-goers lie to themselves that disobedience is the new normal.

Jesus reserved his harshest words for the Pharisees and their hypocrisy. But is the hypocrisy of the Pharisees and the hypocrisy of those who inhabit the churches in 2014 America so very far apart? Pew-sitters go about their business, merrily preparing the way for the man of sin, all the while smiling while singing “Jesus loves Me.”

In the time in which we live, this is troubling because all who do not have a love for the truth will be subject to a “strong delusion.”

But few seem troubled as they revel not only in their deception but in sin as well.

And make no mistake: Jesus hates sin.

God hates sinners.

Anyone who insists differently is selling something.

God loves his creation. But God is the perfect Judge who will judge perfectly. And as a Holy God–a concept that no human can identify with–He abhors iniquity and sin and those who commit it.

Scripture is full of God very plainly declaring his feelings about sinners.

“Thou hatest all workers of iniquity”
–Psalm 5:5

“If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema(cursed).”
-–1 Corinthians 16:22

“…all that do unrighteously are an abomination to the Lord”
–Deuteronomy 25:16

“He that justifieth the wicked… are abomination to the Lord.”
–Proverbs 17:5

“And if ye will not for all this hearken unto Me, but walk contrary to Me; Then I will walk contrary to you in my fury.”
–Leviticus 26:28

Disobedience comes in many forms. All sin is disobedience in one form or another. Church-goers who continue in their sin while insisting “God knows my heart” should be assured: God does know our hearts.

And he has made it clear our hearts are naturally disobedient.

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?“
–Jeremiah 17:9

To list all of the types of disobedience in today’s Church would take a piece four times as long as this one.

One of the most common forms of disobedience is on display every day in American churches: friendship with the world.

“Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.”
—James 4:4

American church-goers are such bosom buddies with the world, they no longer even recognize their condition. The world helps the church-goers out by dreaming up other names for friendship with the world.

To the World With Love: Signed, the American Christian

Once more, deception and disobedience go hand-in-hand in the American churches.

Is your calling and election sure?

“Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.”
