Joe Biden is the Democratic Front Runner. How is this Possible?

Former Vice President Joe Biden has long been known for his gaffes. Reporters that have known him long enough would say they’re just part of who he is and they’re kind of harmless. Now that Biden is a 77-year-old, it has become obvious that these mistakes are so numerous and profound that they fit a pattern of mental senility.

During a New Hampshire campaign event in December, Biden said that he would consider a Republican running mate. Biden said he anticipated getting “clobbered by the press” after he answered a woman who asked if Biden would consider a Republican running mate. “The answer is, I would, but I can’t think of one now,” Biden said, in a clip from CNN.

Washington, DC, is so divided, there is no way that the Democrats would stand for a Republican on their ticket. The ability of a woman to lead Biden into considering a VP from the other party just shows how dangerous it is to have someone in office that doesn’t have his full mental facility.

During a Las Vegas town hall in November, the former vice president said he would not legalize marijuana nationwide without further research. “The truth of the matter is, there’s not nearly been enough evidence that has been acquired as to whether or not it is a gateway drug,” he said, according to Business Insider.

Biden’s remarks led to criticism from other Democrats. “Marijuana should be legalized, and drug consumption should be decriminalized. These are matters of public health,” congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, hours after his remark.

Crazy Joe likely made that comment on marijuana out of memory. His brain can’t remember the current party view on pot, so it found views from the past. I’m hoping at a future campaign stop, Joe will say we’re never going to allow gays to get married or serve openly in the military.

A key indication that Biden is losing it are the awkward fights he has with random people at campaign stops. A young woman asked Biden about electability given his poor showing in Iowa, and he replied her, “You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier.” He cursed at an autoworker who challenged him on second amendment rights. Then Biden says “Wait, wait, wait, wait, I’ll take your AR-14s” – a gun which doesn’t exist. His frequent use of profanity is what happens when someone loses the ability to thoughtfully debate with other people.

I could go on and on in describing his many gaffes. Here are several one-liners that further prove that something is not right upstairs with the man:

  • In a debate he said 150 million people in the US have been killed by guns since 2007.
  • Biden promised to get 720 million women back in the workforce.
  • “Nobody should be in jail for a nonviolent crime.”
  • Biden said he was a candidate for the US Senate.
  • In another clip, Biden referred to himself as an “O’Biden-Bama Democrat.”
  • “We cannot reelect – we cannot win this reelection. We can only reelect Donald Trump.”
  • Biden said he voted for the Iraq war to prevent a war from happening.

President Ronald Reagan was hammered over similar issues during the 1984 election. The press has rewritten history to make Reagan’s final years in office as a nation lead by a man with reduced mental capabilities. One network planned to produce a sitcom that featured a Reagan character with dementia.

Joe Biden’s status as the frontrunner in the Democratic presidential race highlights the party’s hypocrisy when it comes to attacks on Donald Trump. CNN has interviewed a series of so-called medical experts that all declared Trump mentally unfit for office.

If the liberal media wants to protect us from crazy politicians, now is their chance. The candidate Joe Biden is so confused that he has trouble remembering where he is, why he’s there, and what day it is.

“Biden’s cognitive issues have been evident for some time, but just watch the same media who for four years have been declaring Donald Trump mentally and physically unfit for office have a collective meltdown when Biden’s mental faculties are questioned,” said SKY News Australia “Outsiders” host Rita Panahi.

I think it is an improvement to go from a hardline communist to Biden. The Democrats are still offering a dangerous choice to Americans by having a candidate that can’t even a give seven-minute speech without going off track.

It amazes me that few people see the mental issues with Biden. The liberal media have done a good job in covering up most of his gaffes, but there are still enough in the news to show that Biden is not well. The key problem here is the lack of spiritual wisdom. If you are not seeking God’s guidance, the enemy will easily blind you to the truth.

“He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed” (Proverbs 13:20).

“Wise people store up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction” (Proverbs 10:14).

Abraham’s Assurance and the Ayatollahs

Some years ago I wrote the following:

Israel is the one nation in human history that the Creator of all things chose to be “a people unto himself”: “For thou [art] an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that [are] upon the face of the earth” (Deuteronomy 7:6).

Jehovah made promises to the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that are staggering in their implications. He promised to bless those who bless the nation that would spring from the loins of these men, and warned about His curse for those who cursed those people. God said to Abraham, “Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” (Genesis 12:1–3).

Certainly, this promise can easily be verified as coming true throughout recorded history. The modern record, as a matter of fact, is contemporary proof of the veracity of the Almighty and His prophetic promises. Historians–except those blinded by the great deceiver, Lucifer—concede, sometime reluctantly, that Israel’s history in ancient times was a record of greatness. David and Solomon’s exploits and accomplishments are legendary, but built upon archaeological facts. Israel has achieved greatness among the nations of this earthly sphere.

My words of those earlier times have continued to prove true, because the facts involved come directly from God’s Word. Israel remains an amazing fulfillment of the stage being set for the ultimate accomplishment of prophecy yet future.

We’ve looked many times at recent examples of such stage-setting. The nations of Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others are preparing for their fateful plunge southward over “the mountains of Israel.” It will be the attack Ezekiel the prophet said would come from the military coalition he called Gog and Magog.

Those nations are in constant, interactive ferment north of Jerusalem. Every day there are reports of this intermingling. Sometimes they are against each other, as when Turkey threatens Russia’s client state, Syria. Sometimes Russia and Turkey can be seen hugging, like when Russia’s Vladimir Putin recently met with Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan as they continue to plan how best to divide their aggression in some sort of semi-orderly fashion.

Persia (Iran) is right in the middle of the fermentation taking place. One day—post Rapture, I’m convinced—these three (Russia, Iran, and Turkey) will determine to take Israel’s riches—the riches that God promised His chosen nation long ago.

It is with this as prologue that I want to think a moment on a recent news item, with regard to God’s promises to Abraham all those millennia ago.

To me, the current headlines could not be clearer. The veracity of God’s blessings to the old patriarch is being proven right before our twenty-first-century eyes.

While in Israel the coronavirus outbreak is stil, somehow under control, Iran is rapidly becoming a devastated country as a result of the COVID-19 virus and the Islamist regime is hiding the unprecedented disaster while doing not enough to contain the crisis.

Officially the regime says that 3.500 people were infected with the COVID-19 virus while the official death toll is now 107.

“This disease is a widespread disease. It has reached almost all our provinces and in one sense it’s a global disease,” Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani admitted during a cabinet meeting in Tehran while reaffirming the official data about the corona outbreak.

If we take a look at information coming from non-government sources inside and outside Iran, we will understand Rouhani’s words were an understatement.

First of all, Iranian lawmakers such as Abdul Karim Hosseinzadeh revealed that in the holy Shiite city of Qom and Rasht another Iranian city the situation is so bad that streets are full of dead bodies.

“Corpses in Qom are piling up,” Hosseinzadeh wrote on his Twitter account.

The Iranian MP warned that if the regime doesn’t take appropriate action such as quarantining cities Iran will have the highest death toll in the world. (Yochanan Visser, “Iran Attempting to Hide the Disaster It Faces as the COVID-19 Virus Spreads Out of Control within the Islamic Republic,” Israel National News, May 3, 2020)

I’m aware that we must be cautious of appending to current issues and events God’s holy, prophetic Word through “newspaper exegesis.” However, it is proper and even expected to examine whether certain issues and events taking place harbor prophetic truth.

The Ayatollahs of Iran have for years cursed Israel in the vilest terms. They lead in chants, “Death to Israel!” They call Jews the worst names of degradation they can conjure.

We must consider whether the Lord’s promises recorded in Genesis 12 are being proven true in today’s headlines with regard to the coronavirus.
