Perhaps you are familiar with Jeremiah Denton. He was the Naval Aviator and American POW in Vietnam who upon being chosen by his North Vietnamese captors for a propaganda interview and then paraded out in front of the cameras....blinked his eyes in Morse Code the word t-o-r-t-u-r-e over and over again. Someone in Naval Intelligence picked up on this thus informing our government that POWs were being tortured. He was a POW for almost eight years and held in solitary confinement for four of those years.
After his release he rose to the rank of Rear Admiral and later represented Alabama as a United States Senator from 1981 to 1987 before being turned out in his reelection bid.....ah yes....Alabama turns away a good man from the Senate....where have I heard that before? Jeremiah Denton answered the questions in that propaganda interview with a bit of defiance....in spite of the beatings that he knew would accompany the message he gave to American Intelligence. He was a hero in more ways than one and died in 2014. His life gives inspiration to unheroes like myself.
Take these posts for instance.....Special Dog's Conservative Bark.....there is no way that I would have put the time in that I have over the past nine and a half years if they were only about conservative politics and government....even at a time in history when Communism and Globalism and terrorism threatens not only our way of life but our very existence as an independent nation. These things are important....they are life and death issues....they affect the future of our loved ones. Whether I have been right or wrong in my conjectures in these many posts....and I'm sure that I have been both.....the passion in these words is real....but these thoughts....whether they are on our Constitution or liberty or freedom or our national defense or on the many catastrophes right on our doorstep....in our own power....apart from God....apart from humility and self-examination and repentance....apart from these they are worthless.
So I am in effect 'blinking' out an accompanying message as I write about Communism or Globalism or Barack Obama or Donald Trump. That message is that which was written on the wall of Belshazzar's Feast in the book of Daniel.....written by the fingers on a hand that appeared......"Tekel.....you have been weighed in the balance and found wanting."
Answer this question. If you love your country....and said country....the country of your loved ones....the country that so many have sacrificed their lives for....that country of which God had specifically birthed and blessed and sustained even though we time and again forgot that we existed solely because of His beneficence....if you love this your country do you not tell them....and if they do not listen do you not tell them again....and again? Jeremiah Denton knew this thirty years ago....America had forgotten God....had been found wanting....and could expect severe punishment if it did not repent and turn back to God.

So I post these warnings on Communism and Globalism knowing full well that there is no answer to them other than falling before the King of Kings....the Lord of Glory....and the coming Judge....seeking mercy....and even then we are so far advanced in our rebellion that we can now only hope that God will be with us through the turmoil....for He has warned us very specifically for upwards of a half century....and we ignored each and every warning....we have been weighed in the balance and found wanting. So I write most every day on our predicament....but in amongst the political opinions I'm blinking out an S. O. S......dot....dash....dot.....for those who understand.
