But This Time It IS Different :: By Dave Hubley

I have included a Special message at the end of this article. I hope you will read it and take it to heart.

I enjoyed the patriotic optimism expressed in this article, but in view of the evil that has been infused into our culture, I believe it may be too late:

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/08/patriots-won-t-let-communists-take-america/

It reminded me of the America I grew up in, loved and defended (I thought), and still love, but with a strong dose of “awakening to reality” thrown in.

It reminded me of the America that once was, when it was planted and watered with the Gospel of Jesus Christ that was readily acknowledged as a Blessing of God.

This was the “American Experiment,” and it was the only nation in the history of the world so conceived and birthed in blood and blessed by the One who is the only bulwark against its demise. I believe that America still existed in large part in 1945.

By the 1960s, the Godlessness of America began in earnest and continues to this day.

And so, yes, this time circumstances are vastly different. God has given proof that sin can reach a point where He will not listen to the prayers of unrepentant nations.

It is very sad, but it is reality (Jeremiah 7:16, 11:14, 14:11).

In another way, it is sorrowfully wonderful.

Let me explain without going into all the details of the inescapable differences. They are obvious, but failing to acknowledge them will overload the hearts of those who put all their trust in the American well, and then find that it has almost run dry.

I mean, those who stop up their ears, close their eyes, and have hardened their hearts.

America has lost its way.

What really made us free was the One True God’s Foundational precepts: to reject sin and rebellion against Him and to follow the Constitution that had its origin in His Wisdom and Knowledge. It was to choose the right – His Right, not the slowly decaying “rights” as mauled and twisted by standards? that have been redefined by the worship of Secular Humanism (which has ALWAYS been the ingredient for failure and disaster).

It is actively at work again. Even here, socialism/communism are on the rise.

A long time back in our history, we, as a nation, fell asleep on guard duty. We allowed the enemy into the sanctuary under the purposely obfuscated banner of “freedom.”

That is why the Constitution is under assault, even by some of our own “leaders.”

Are there still patriots in this country? Many. But this time the enemy is not just at the gates but inside the mechanism that was given by the founders to preserve the gates.

“For with God nothing will be impossible” (Luke 1:37). Emphasis added.

That “with” word, it seems, has a present and a past tense meaning in terms of America’s relationship with God and obedience TO Him.

We must ask: Are we really “with” Him? He makes it clear; there is no middle ground:

“He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters” (Luke 11:23).

God expects much from whom much has been given (Luke 12:48b). God and His Word have not ever changed one iota, as He has so clearly stated:

“The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever” (Isaiah 40:8).

Is He really “our” God, or has America digressed to worship of its own made-up gods?

The politicians have failed to act, and the citizens have waited too long. It is not just the foreign nationals who are to blame. They are acting because lawlessness (as God’s Word warned) now rules each day, and our own leaders, in part, are enabling it.

Politicians ask to be elected. No one forces them. Now they bicker like three-year-olds, and almost every decision is determined by how it influences their re-election chances. Meanwhile, America burns and suffocates. They just want “the power.” At the present rate, that brief spate of power will likely rule over America’s gravesite.

There is a stupid old saying that has never been true: “Laws were made to be broken.” Welcome to modern-day America: the consequences are staggering. It’s the lawlessness that God warned about, manifest in real time (Matthew 24:12).

Much like drinking unfiltered water and acquiring Guardia, this time it’s already in the bowels of America’s system.

Sorrowfully wonderful: The “wonderful” is applicable to those who will have placed all their trust in the Eternal God of creation. The “sorrowful” is for those who refuse to.

“Remember the former things long past, For I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is no one like Me, Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things which have not been done, Saying, ‘My purpose                                                                                        will be established, And I will accomplish all My good pleasure’” (Isaiah 46:9-10). Emphasis added.

Fortunately: Any living soul can choose to be one of those who have placed all their trust in the Eternal God of creation. (Please see the Special message at the end of this article.)

God has declared what the end of the age will be, and it can be understood in its totality in the Book of Revelation. It is the sum total of God’s plan that was delayed by sin, but delayed only. He has never abandoned His plan and will soon complete it in Christ.

The sorrowful? The sorrowful part has to do with the exponentially increasing evil, debauchery and debased behavior toward everything that is good, especially the cold-blooded exploitation of children. The murderous practice of abortion. The denial of XX and XY being XX and XY. The absolute insanity of the view of so many people that “anything goes.” The hole they are digging for themselves appears to have no bottom. I could go on and on, but these truths are now inescapably self-evident.

A direct accusation by God (Romans 1:18-32) is ignored by so many who could still be redeemed if their consciences are not completely cauterized.

These sorrows (Mark 13:8b/NKJ, KJV, BSB) are so unnecessary.

The wonderful? Because even though there is no hope in human terms, God will finally bring all this evil to an end by His direct intervention – the only solution to the sorrow and grief that now rules over this world.

Yes, this time it is different, just as the Word of God said it would be.

You don’t have to go down with this sinking world:

Jesus is standing at the door of your heart and your soul (Revelation 3:20).

You can still open the door, but you must do so while you are in your living years.

Please. Please. Take Jesus, the Hand of Mercy and Grace, and choose life.

The special message I promised you:

For anyone who may read this article and has not trusted in Jesus Christ and therefore has no real hope or peace in your life

You can have hope. You can have the peace that Jesus has promised to all who have made Him their Lord and Savior. The peace that passes understanding.

It requires that you come before God on His terms and that you do so in your living years.

And what are His terms according to His Word?

  • Genuine repentance (turning to God instead of continuing to reject or ignore Him).
  • Confession of sins (that you are a sinner and acknowledge that to God).
  • That you understand that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23).
  • To acknowledge to God that you are unable to pay that debt.
  • Belief that Jesus Christ paid your death sentence for you on the cross and rose from the grave three days later, conquering death, just as He promised.
  • To believe that Jesus is the Way, the only Way, that God has established by which humans may be saved from the consequences of their sin and rebellion.

This is what leads one to the Spiritual Rebirth that Jesus requires (John 3:3).

God has made it absolutely clear that there is no one who comes before Him, under His terms, that will be refused.

  • No one: no race, no color, no country of origin, regardless of any previous belief system: no one.
  • No matter what your past sins have been, God can and WILL forgive you because He says He will.
  • Salvation is available to everyone without any exceptions.

If you put all your trust for salvation in Jesus, and Him only, you can follow that prayer up by simply saying, “Thank you, Father God, for hearing my prayer and saving me,” because we can trust Him to keep His Word. He always has. He always will.

“Truly, Truly, I say to you that he who hears My words and believes the One who sent Me has eternal life and will not be condemned. He has crossed from death to life (John 5:24).

There are no answers and there is no hope in the world by governments, organizations, politics or politicians. They are incapable of it. There are only lies and deception. But you can have the Truth and the peace you seek.

The answers are in the Word of God. The Bible. If you ask God, with all your heart, He will hear you.

“And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13).

Ladies First :: By The Gospelist

It looks like it will be the faithless women of the West, whose numbers are legion, who will lead us into the Days of Noah. And weak, faithless men are going to follow them.

“As it was in the Days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man” (Matthew 24:56).

For those who have not seen the video, this is what the Godless women in America look and sound like just prior to the return of Christ.

Sick Luigi Mangione Fangirls Say Murdered CEO Brian Thompson’s Children Are ‘Better Off Without Him’

Luigi Mangione murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.  Mr. Thompson was survived by his wife Paulette Thompson and their two sons.  His wife described him as an incredibly loving, generous, and devoted father who lived life to the fullest.

His murderer, Luigi Mangione, did what all courageous Marxists do.  He ambushed an unsuspecting Mr. Thompson and bravely shot him in the back.  Mr. Thompson was mischievously going to an investor’s conference when, according to the communists who haunt our country, he paid the ultimate price for his ‘crimes.’

Like all Marxists, Mangione left his ‘manifesto’ for the other commies in the country to drool over.  His motive for murder was to prove a political point about the healthcare industry. Politics takes precedence over God’s moral law in the darkened minds of the evil communists.

The ‘mainstream’ press, which has been completely taken over by the Marxists, found every way possible to justify the murderers’ actions.  It was their intention to turn this killer into a hero who was fighting for the little guy against big, evil corporations.

I have every confidence that in the Days of Noah, when the earth was filled with violence, the denizens of that time shared similar motivations.  They were given over to a depraved mind and filled with every kind of wickedness, greed and depravity.  And just like Eve, it is possible that women led the way into depravity at that time as well.

Let’s review some of the points these women made in their defense of Mangione:

  • They were glad he was murdered.
  • They liked seeing him being shot in the back.
  • His kids were better off without him.
  • His family should enjoy the blood money.
  • Millions of Americans suffer every day because of ‘terrorists’ like Brian Thompson and because health insurance companies are negligent.
  • We should be dancing on his grave.
  • We have been waiting for a “mysterious hero” like Mangione to start murdering people, and it is long overdue.
  • If you think Brian Thompson should be a part of our society, that says more about you because he was a monster.
  • This was a “social murder,” so it was OK.
  • Brian Thompson was just as bad as Osama Bin Laden.
  • We don’t have a choice but to kill people like Brian Thompson.

Gen Z men have been complaining about the character of AWFUL women lately, and it is time to start taking their complaints seriously.  It is not hyperbole to estimate that these types of females make up about 40% of American women.  We are not just seeing incredible arrogance in the defense of evil, but now it is coupled with callousness, hard-heartedness, and complete Godlessness.

Then we have the corrupt government of Massachusetts, headed by Governor Healey, who recently demonstrated how wicked many women have become.

Massachusetts Gov. signs later-term abortion bill into law – YouTube

The evil of abortion has metastasized into the desire to murder children because what women want, even if it is evil, is paramount.  These women, devoid of natural affection, should not have to be inconvenienced by having to care for a child.

Paul wasn’t kidding when he revealed the wrath of God against all Godlessness and wickedness of men (general term for men and women). He warned us that Godless women would be the first to be abandoned and turned over to wickedness before the wrath of God is revealed (Romans 1:26).

Finally, we have the Lyndsey Clancy episode in which a disturbingly large number of faithless women demonstrated a strong desire to defend a child murderer.  Their reasoning revolved around the hatred of men, a desire to make them suffer, and the refusal to hold women accountable for extreme evil.

It is possible Lyndsey’s real reason for killing her children was that she was seeking revenge on her husband who, as far as we can tell, cared for her the best he could.

In the Ten Commandments, “Thou shalt not murder” made the top ten of things we really should not participate in.  The women listed above have not found it worthwhile to retain a knowledge of the moral law of God.  As a result, God has given them over to a depraved mind.  The Holy Spirit has apparently found no redeeming features in these heathen women and has turned them over to wickedness so they can wallow in their own filth.

As this world becomes increasingly Godless and corrupt, these women are going to be victimized by the people they foolishly support.  As the Muslims, who have a spirit of murder and rape, rise in power around the world, these women are likely to get a heavy dose of what they have been dishing out.

This is likely one of the reasons why the Holy Spirit is spending little time restraining the foolish pagans of Islam.

If this is what men in the West must choose from for spouses, the nation and the world are in big trouble.  Men are better off being alone than having their lives ruined by evil, Godless women who have no conscience.

In this society, we have seen repeated attempts to murder President Trump.  It has become so commonplace that we hardly notice anymore.  The Marxist press seems to get giddy every time someone tries to kill him.  It was not always like this.  When President Kennedy and Reagan were shot, it shocked the world.  With President Trump, the reaction seems to be ‘darn, we missed again.’

When Charlie Kirk was murdered, the world got a little darker.  The Democrats celebrated because, like the Godless women above, his was a ‘social murder.’  Those are OK.

Now we are confronted with the hatred of his widow, Erika Kirk.  How someone can despise the widow of a good man demonstrates a special level of evil we have not yet seen in this society.  And it is mostly coming from women.

If you are wondering if you are good or evil, here are some excellent examples to help you discern where you fall.

If you can relate to what these women are saying, you have been abandoned by God.  You are senseless, faithless, heartless, and ruthless.  These women and their supporters have hardened their hearts against the Lord.  Their unbelief guarantees they will never enter the Lord’s rest.
