“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20).
As I read the news this morning, I am sickened. The hatred and violence astound me. There’s absolutely no justification for what’s happening in the streets of America. This nation was established by a Constitution, and that Constitution is being shredded by the liberal left as they try to destroy America. A virus was blown out of proportion, and the liberals managed to use it to shut down the world, causing economic hardship. Their goal? A liberal one-world government. What’s standing in the way of that goal? America.
We’re a nation that loves our freedom. That freedom has allowed free enterprise to grow and America to prosper. That’s not good enough for the liberals who want to repress the masses; they want to cripple and destroy this land that I love. There are still enough Christians in America to turn this destruction around. We cannot do it unless we first turn to Jesus.
“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (James 5:16).
Are there any righteous men left in America? Any righteous women? The liberal news would have us believe there are very few. I believe there are many. It’s time for us to put God first, pray, and stand against Satan.
Ahab and Jezebel Clinton (oops, I meant Bill and Hillary) have done their utmost to flaunt the double standards of the elite. Bill Clinton was impeached by the House of Representatives on grounds of perjury to a grand jury and the obstruction of justice, and his behavior in the Oval office was disgusting. Instead of being ousted from office for his many transgressions, he was left in office. Disgraceful. Hillary is as bad. Her handling of the Benghazi murder of our Ambassador, her many email debacles, and the fact that she “channels” Eleanor Roosevelt are enough to discredit her entire political career. The moral character of America took a major nosedive because of the Clintons.
Then came Obama whose Constitutional eligibility to hold office is questionable. He bowed to Muslims, declared America not to be a Christian nation, legalized the sin of homosexuality, promoted abortion, and did what he could to destroy the Constitution and bring the United States of America to an end. When his time in office ended, Jezebel…I mean Hillary…ran for president. She lost. The bid to destroy America was thwarted by intelligent Americans who saw through the liberal lies and understood what their agenda was all about.
Thank God Donald J. Trump was elected President of the United States. He brought dignity back to the office. He doesn’t play politics and he doesn’t concern himself with the new world order. He’s a businessman who began to turn the economy of America around and doesn’t bow before Muslim powers. Mr. Trump doesn’t finance Middle Eastern warlords as his predecessors did, but his goal is to enable Americans to prosper. Unemployment figures were down and the economy of America was on an upswing. Skin color wasn’t an issue; anyone willing to work could work. Earning an honest living is Biblical.
“For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread” (2 Thessalonians 3:10-12).
If someone is physically unable to work, it’s Biblical to take care of them, but welfare isn’t the first resort. That’s not the way liberals think. The liberals have tried to stop Mr. Trump from helping America to prosper and will stop at nothing to come against him.
Under the Obama Administration, sin was legalized. Murdering unborn babies thrived, and homosexual marriage was legalized. Phrases like “gender fluidity” and “a mother’s choice” entered into our vocabulary and somehow became accepted as valid. Homosexuality is against God, and Scripture says it’s a judgment on a nation that rejects Him. Public schools teach evolution as a fact, and America falls deeper into sin.
“Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen” (Romans 1:24-25).
We condemn ourselves when we reject God; it’s brought on by our own actions in accepting lies as truth.
“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections; for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which is meet” (Romans 1:26-27).
America, the land that I love, has allowed Satan to bring us down because we reject God and embrace sin.
“Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them” (Romans 1:29-32).
The liberal agenda is Satanic and will destroy all that’s good. If you condone any act which is contrary to God’s ways, you are part of the problem.
President Trump has re-built America, and the liberal left cannot allow that. The coronavirus didn’t destroy America because of the leadership of a strong President. The left is now pulling out the race card. A white policeman arrested a black lawbreaker. Did that police officer use excessive force? It appears he did and the lawbreaker died. There’s a video of the incident, and it appears that the police officer is guilty, as well as the officers standing by and watching. I say “appears” because, in America, a person is innocent until proven guilty.
The liberals have turned a criminal case into a racial war. The weak-minded are, once again, the tools of destruction. There’s absolutely no way to justify the rioting and destruction of property. These riots are not spontaneous outbursts, but orchestrated battles. Who’s behind them?
Well, who has the money to purchase piles of bricks and distribute them nationwide prior to the rioting? Who has the money to bus rioters from one war zone to another? Who has the backing of Satan in their efforts to destroy America? I’ll just generally name the liberals as the perpetrators of this destruction, but do some research and you come up with some names. They couldn’t care less about black Americans, but create and use the racial issue as a catalyst for division and destruction. If they’re allowed to win this battle, they will turn against everyone regardless of skin color. The rioters are only pawns to be disposed of when the fighting ends. Brothers and sisters, we do not need another Clinton or Obama in the White House.
Can anyone explain to me why people who’ve worked hard to earn a living, who’ve built businesses, who attend worship services, and who contribute to the good of our communities are criminalized while the criminals are allowed to run riot over the nation?
Christians can be fined and/or arrested for not “social distancing” or not wearing a mask while attending worship services, but every night there are riots which destroy lives and property, and those people are allowed freedom to do as they please. Hairdressers who want and need to work are criminalized and banned from working while cities burn because of the true lawbreakers. The Constitution of the United States provides for peaceful assembly, but there’s nothing peaceful about the arson, looting, and violence of these riots.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” Article I of the Bill of Rights.
Christians gathering to worship God are strictly regulated in what is preached and how close we can be to each other, while violent and destructive riots aren’t subject to the constitution or any law. They certainly aren’t peacefully assembling. This Amendment also protects the freedom of speech and of the press. The liberals have shredded that one too. Google, Facebook, and YouTube censure those who speak against liberal brainwashing, while a Christian bakery owner is forced to bake a “wedding” cake for homosexuals. Double standards by the liberals are rampant. The liberal media controls the mainstream news, but there are alternative news sources which Christians should pay attention to.
Brothers and sisters, I love America. I love God more. I will continue to speak up for God and use my Constitutional right to protect myself against those who mean me harm.
“A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” Article II of the Bill of Rights.
The riots and the liberal agenda are not in accordance with the Constitution, but are an effort by those who desire to destroy The United States of America to bring in a new world order.
Scripture teaches that there will be one man who will bring order out of chaos, and all the people will follow him. Is he a good guy? Absolutely not. He’s known by many names in Scripture, but is commonly called the Anti-Christ. He’s waiting for the right time to step in and take over the world. He’s possessed by Satan and will lead all who follow him straight to Hell. God has promised all Christians will be taken to Heaven prior to the Anti-Christ coming to power. In fact, this evil man won’t be revealed until after the Rapture.
“For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved” (2 Thessalonians 2:7-10, NKJV).
The Holy Spirit is sealed within every Christian and is restraining the power of Satan. After the Rapture the evil will no longer be restrained. Do you think it’s bad now? As the saying goes, “You ain’t seen nothing yet.” If you haven’t accepted Christ for salvation, do it now. The Rapture is only promised to Christians, and it’s our Blessed Hope.
There is good news amidst all of this evil. Jesus Christ is willing to forgive all sin. He shed His blood on the cross of Calvary in order for you to be forgiven. First you have to realize that you are a sinner and repent. That means you’ve changed your mind about embracing sin. You turn away from sin and turn to Christ. Eternity is a long time to regret holding onto hatred and believing lies instead of being filled with the love of God Almighty and knowing the truth.
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).
Only Jesus Christ can offer you freedom from sin. Not freedom to sin but freedom from it. Give your life to Him now and become a new creation through Him.
God bless America, land that I love. He will bless this land only if we follow Him. Brothers and sisters, stand strong upon God’s word and do not compromise your faith. Be sure that you walk in His ways, not in the ways of sin.
As much as I love America, I love my Home in Heaven more. It won’t be long until we’re called Home, and I look forward to seeing all of you there soon.
God bless you all,
Nathele Graham
