Preface: The following was first posted almost seven years ago to the day. We thought that things were bad back then....and they were....but they were a walk in the park compared to what is going on all over this world today. We were conservatives back then....giving all that we had in an attempt to right this ship....little did we know that we ourselves would be the next domino to fall....taken in and abused....along with our leaders like Rush.....while our pulpits....oblivious to the warnings of God's Word....built their big churches....with everyone smiling before and after the services....not in the joy of Christ....for I could probably count on one hand the number of times over forty years that anyone even mentioned Christ.....as the conversations are always plans for the week....or ailments.....or the kids.....or the weather....or the big game....and all this while a false prophet came in and raided the sheep. Pastors....if you have a church of 500....and you would warn them right now on this vile man Donald Trump....maybe 100 would leave....or two hundred....leaving you with just 300....which is all that Gideon had left after God's instructions. Check out if you dare the latest Trump video over the weekend at Mar-a-Lago....in front of a gathering of young 'patriots'....or so they think that they are....and listen or read and weep at what you allowed to come into your church.
Today Is The Day
We have no one to blame but ourselves. We let it happen. Some are more to blame than others but no one is left unscathed. They came in waving their diplomas given to them by the Wizard of Oz and we let them set the coarse for teaching our children. They tapped us on the shoulder getting our attention long enough to tell us that God was dead and we ignored them and went back to watching our sports. They told us that a pre-born child was only a fetus so we let them kill as many as they wanted. They taught in our universities that there is no truth....and then told us that that was the truth, said that there is no good and no bad, no right and no wrong, and that if we agree... that's good, but if we disagree... that's bad, if we follow...that's right and if we don't...that's wrong. They called us intolerant as they swept away piecemeal our identity as a nation through courts whose judges they had strategically placed into position while we naively thought that politics could save us.
Meanwhile we opened the gates wide as they dragged in the Trojan Horse with the colossal hologram of Barack Obama sitting atop it saying "peace...peace." The barbarians slithered out of the seeming abyss of its belly and began to take apart our Constitution and destroy the American family. They lie as easily as they breath.
We now sit here and watch as hardly a day goes by without another assault upon sanity, another mockery of law, another battering ram thrust upon our bulwarks....from the inside, another swing of the ax laid to our moorings and another pyre constructed of old books and documents and histories and pews and pulpits, readied to lay upon it our Constitution and be lit by the fires of hell.
We knew more than our parents and they knew more than their parents and they knew more than theirs. The final result of this antithesis of wisdom has produced the 140 character text, the tweet, that tests the limits of our analytical skills. (the Tweet eventually did us in)
O where to go to when we finally see how far we have fallen, when we gag at the stench that permeates our very being, when we sob when we think of the future of our children and clench our fists in anger as we look into a mirror and see nothing....absolutely nothing.
Well, we're not there yet. We haven't hit bottom, but we will. We aren't gagging because we have been conditioned to savor the fetid stench of communism, and why look into a mirror when one has Facebook!
Many have penciled in God for late in life, an insurance policy to be purchased upon retirement. How foolish, yet how perfectly inlaid into the urn awaiting our ashes. Look around and see the house that we have constructed where Jesus Christ is no longer the cornerstone, where His Word is packed away in the basement in a box labelled...'books.' Today is the day to humble ourselves before God, to kneel and weep at the foot of the cross, for there is no guarantee of tomorrow, not for individuals or for nations.
