The Causal Nature of Sin Today

There have always been sinful people in America. What is different about sin today is that people do it with not a hint of moral hesitancy. The moral compass that God gave everyone at birth has been smashed.

I ran across a news story about the possibility of actress Elizabeth Hurley starting a reality show with her 18-year-old son Damian. Hurley chose to set the record straight by posting a racy semi-nude photo of herself on social media. The thinking was: If you want to shut down rumors, you’ve really got to grab people’s attention.

Because a reality show is nothing special, I don’t understand why she didn’t just offer a simple: NO, we are not. I don’t see the need for Hurley to draw attention to herself in such a tacky manner. Her IMDb.com profiles show that she has had steady work the last few years.

The same day, singer Madonna tried to steam up social media by posting a series of revealing photos of herself dressed in a strappy bra, lace underwear, and a motorcycle cap.

I found Madonna to be gross in her glory days in the early 1980s. Now that she’s 62, I feel my stomach churning when I see images of her. She should have realized that her sex appeal had long since faded when she made singer Drake wince when she tried to rub up against him in a seductive way.

I don’t think there will ever be a moment of self-reflection for Madonna. She will go to her grave thinking that she is still a hot number.

A couple of weeks ago, rapper Lil Nas X set off alarm bells in Christian circles by announcing the release of a shoe that would honor the devil.

Based on a Nike Air Max 97, the “Satan Shoes” are about as devilish as a pair of sneakers can get. Aside from the all-black uppers, you’ll find an Air unit filled with 60cc of ink and one drop of real human blood. The dark theme doesn’t stop there, as these limited to 666 sneakers (how very apt) are individually numbered in red on the lateral rear counter, while “Luke 10:18” graces the lateral-side front quarter also in a satanic red font. Note: 10:18 is the passage in which Luke says, “I Saw Satan Fall Like Lightning From Heaven.”

Nike has distanced itself from the design and told CNN, “We do not have a relationship with Lil Nas or MSCHF. Nike did not design or release these shoes, and we do not endorse them.” Nike is suing the art collective behind the “Satan Shoes” for trademark infringement.

Religious figures in the US have criticized Lil Nas X for the shoes, including Donald Trump’s pastor Mark Burns, who tweeted, “These #SatanShoes by #Nike & #LilNasX with 666 and a drop of human blood in the sole is a reason why we Christians must be prayed up ready to battle in the spirit with the Voice of the Holy Spirit.”

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem added her voice to the criticism, saying, “Our kids are being told that this kind of product is not only okay, it’s ‘exclusive.’ But do you know what’s more exclusive? Their God-given eternal soul. We are in a fight for the soul of our nation. We need to fight hard. And we need to fight smart. We have to win.”

The shoes went on sale online via a “drop,” and just days after Lil Nas X premiered the video for his track “Montero (Call Me By Your Name).” The price of the shoes is $1,018.

Lil Nas X describes himself as an “unapologetically gay” rapper, which surprised me for a music genre that was once all heterosexual. I looked up the video for Montero (Call Me By Your Name), and it was the most satanic thing I’ve ever seen in my life. It beats out Katy Perry’s occultic “Dark Horse” Witch ritual performed at the 2014 Grammy awards.

In the latter part of the video, Lil Nas X descends down a stripper pole to the pit of hell and gives Satan an extremely graphic lap dance. He then snaps the devil’s neck, puts on the devil’s horns, and his eye starts to glow with demonic power.

I doubt I’m going to have to wait another seven years to say I witnessed something more satanic than the Lil Nas X video. The next topper will likely be Satan making a live performance by indwelling the Antichrist.

“Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time” (Revelation 12:12).

Israel’s Angel Standing By

Evil being perpetrated today by the satanic minions, both demonic and human, is made manifest for all to see. At the same time, the dynamics behind what we can easily discern tell us that powerful forces rage in prophetic stage-setting while the final battle between good and evil continues to take shape. The scope displaying this wickedness, however, allows us to only peer through that “looking glass darkly,” as the KJV puts it (1 Corinthians 13:12).

These factors were among my motivation for writing the story I believe I was given the impression to present in fictional form. While I realize many–actually most—among our Rapture Ready and Terryjamesprophecyline.com blog family rarely care to delve into fiction, I’m hoping those of you who fit in those categories will make exception in this case.

Like in using this commentary space to offer my and Gary Ritter’s The Minion Protocols a few weeks ago, this article, too, is admittedly, to some extent, a promotion for my new novel.

By way of perhaps trying to somewhat buffer the appearance of crass commercialism, I offer this explanation. I present my novel with the strong sense that much of what is happening in the world today—in the unseen, spiritual realm—can be revealed to a considerable degree through fiction.

And the interaction in that dimension must be absolutely stupefying. Maybe that’s why the Lord has us looking through that glass darkly, concerning the cataclysmic clashing going on, from which we are protected by Heaven’s power. I believe that a fictional rendering is what is now called for as a buffering, although revealing, depiction to help us see where things stand from the supernatural perspective. I hope at the same time it will entertain, which fiction, in part, should do in every case.

MICHAEL is the novel’s title. Last-Days Lightning is the subtitle. As we have gone over a number of times in these commentaries, Israel is the primary signal of where this generation stands upon God’s prophetic timeline. That supernatural nation is at the very center of the prodigious battle that will bring the epic conflict of all ages to a conclusion. It is the horrendous warfare the great Apostle Paul wrote about as recorded now in Ephesians 6:12. All who name the Name of Christ are engaged in this battle whether we realize it or can’t spiritually perceive what’s going on all around us.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6: 11–12)

That hell-spawned warfare will carry on through the campaign of Armageddon, and even arise again for a brief moment at the end of the millennial reign of Christ. Israel is the primary target the devil and his forces have in their crosshairs in their rage to destroy the house of Israel, thus to make God a liar. God has said that Israel will be a nation forever, and will be the head of all nations in the Millennium. The Jews have been the target of the evil forces of this fallen world down through the centuries–thus because it is that people through whom the Lamb that takes away the sins of the world was born.

The hatred is again building at a rapid rate. Globalism, anti-God, one-world-order ideology, is the chief stronghold of the powers and principalities in the high places of wickedness. The present American president and his administration have done and are doing all within their power to reverse any and all advantageous things the previous administration did for the Jewish state. Israel’s enemies, such as Iran, sense a renewed opportunity to destroy the nation by developing their nuclear weapons programs.

The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) is among the top military entities on the planet. They have the capability, both in battle ready forces and in covert operations, which have made the nation to this point seemingly undefeatable.

From relatively current history, we know about the major wars in which Israel was attacked, their enemies completely routed, despite the Israeli military facing overwhelming odds in every case. But was it their military that assured those victories? Many experts in warfare still scratch their heads, and many have to admit that those victories must have had elements of supernaturalism involved, so overwhelmingly strange and complete were the victories.

This is where I believe Daniel’s prophecies for these very days in which we find ourselves come into view—not that I mean the great prophet’s prophecies have totally unfolded. But, from things we have seen in Israel’s modern history and all the geopolitical gyrations involving the Jewish state continually taking place, to me it is clear that Daniel’s prophecies for the time near Christ’s return at Armageddon are beginning to manifest, and have been for some time.

Daniel’s foretelling, given him through his spectacular encounters with a heavenly messenger, are worthy of examination.

First, the prophet was given the following directly from the throne of God. I’m convinced the time referred to is the time we have entered, probably when Israel was reestablished as a nation on May 14, 1948. The Tribulation era—the time of trouble the angel mentions—isn’t yet upon us, but things have been set in motion that will rapidly lead to that horrendous time.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. (Daniel 12: 1)

The angel then gave the prophet the following to write:

But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. (Daniel 12:4)

Based upon the electrifying unfolding of issues and events involving prophetic portent at this time, we must conclude that the book likely has been opened.

MICHAEL: Last Days Lightning will be available this Wednesday, April 14. Please look for the promotion on that day to get links to the book.

Again, I believe the story gives an entertaining but discerning look behind the evil going on in recent times. And I prayerfully hope it will, even though presented fictionally, give encouragement and comfort that there is nothing to worry about—the Lord has everything fully under control within His mighty hand.

DAYS OF GODLESSNESS

LAST DAYS RETURN TO THE DAYS OF LOT

Arkansas lawmakers override governor’s veto of bill banning sex change procedures for kids. The Arkansas House voted 75-25 and the Senate 25-8  to override the veto on House Bill 1570, also known as the Save Adolescents From Experimentation Act. Thank goodness, lawmakers who have sense!

261 California Male Prison Inmates Have Requested Transfer to Women’s Prisons Since January, aligning with their so-called gender identity. This after Demo-crat Gov. Newsom signed S.B. 132 into law a bill that requires the Dept of Corrections and Rehabilitation to ask every individual entering the department’s custody to specify their pronouns, gender identity, and whether they identify as transgender, nonbinary, or intersex.

LGBTs and Witch Harlots Hold Rally in Jerusalem. Dozens of fringe organizations, including women’s libbers and LGBTs, gathered in front of the Knesset to protest against the parties that ran with the Religious Party whom they felt opposed their political agendas. One group wore witch hats and scanty clothing – Tza’adat HaSharmutot (Parade of Sluts), an offshoot of the transnational “SlutWalk” movement.

INIQUITY (LAWLESSNESS, WICKEDNESS) SHALL ABOUND

Former NFL player Phillip Adams kills five in South Carolina (including two children), then himself. He shot a doctor, his wife and their two grandchildren (ages 6 and 9), also two HVAC workers on the property before later killing himself when police arrived at his home. One worker is still alive, fighting for his life.

CNN Admits Crime Wave, Highlights Violence in Democrat-Run Cities.

PLAGUE AND PESTILENCE

Japan Admits Dumping Fukushima Radioactive Water in Pacific Ocean Is Now “Unavoidable.” Officials claim the water would be purified to the maximum extent possible, but environmentalist groups like Greenpeace warn that the water contains hazardous material that could damage human DNA and the health of marine life.

Locust Plague

East Africa Deploys Huge Volumes of Highly Toxic Pesticides Against Locust Plague. Over 95% of pesticides now being used there to fight locust swarms are proven to harm humans and animals such as birds and fish. Experts concede the pesticides used “are not pleasant things,” but say lack of safer alternatives and the intensity of the locust plague leave them little choice. Swarms of locusts tens of kilometers wide have threatened to devastate crops since late 2019, putting 32 million people at risk of going hungry.

Drug Plague

Gov. Cuomo signs bill legalizing recreational marijuana in New York. New Yorkers will now be legally allowed to possess up to 3 ounces of cannabis outside the home and up to 5 pounds at home — and can smoke pot in public where smoking tobacco is permitted (except for inside schools, workplaces or cars). He likely hopes keeping people stoned will deflect from his dubious and deadly doings.

1 Thessalonians 5:6-8 “Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.”

AND THE PLANNED-DEMIC ORWELLIAN AGENDA

New York Times Article Blames ‘White’ Evangelicals for potentially extending Covid ‘Pandemic.’ Later, the expose admitted there’s no clear data regarding vaccine hesitancy among evangelicals of other racial groups.

VIDEO: In Canada, health inspectors under police escort try to enter church during Passover/Easter service; pastor made them leave. Pastor Arthur Pawlowski had fled to Canada from communism and wasn’t having it! He kept insisting they don’t come back without a warrant and called them Nazis, Gestapo, and Fascists. Pastor Pawlowski detailed his oppressive life under Soviet communists in Poland and warned that Canada is rapidly turning communist. He says we must unite against this evil.

We can also see the communist agenda pushed in the US as well as other countries.

From the ‘Liberal’ Time website: Two New Studies Point to How AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 Vaccine Is Linked to Blood Clots, Some Fatal. AstraZeneca is not given in the US but is in other countries. “These results cast a shadow on this vaccine and now other vaccines—the Russian vaccine, and Johnson & Johnson—that rely on this [same] technology….” EMA (European Medicines Agency) is currently reviewing Johnson & Johnson vaccine after 4 reports of clots, one fatal. EMA just ruled that the benefits outweigh risks but people under age 30 should take other vaccines if available.

246 “Fully Vaccinated” Michigan Residents Catch COVID-19, 3 Die. The cases were reported between Jan. 1 and March 31, and the 246 had a positive test 14 or more days after the last dose in the vaccine series, said Lynn Sutfin, a spokeswoman for the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services.

The European Court of Human Rights has ruled that mandatory (aka forced) vaccinations are legal in a significant judgment that could have a big impact on the rollout of the COVID-19 jab.

Potentially toxic masks distributed in schools and daycares in Quebec, Canada. Grey and blue SNN200642 masks are being recalled due to the potential for “early pulmonary toxicity” from the SNN200642 masks which are made in China and sold and distributed by Métallifer, a Quebec-based manufacturer. Some daycare educators had been suspicious of these masks for a while because they felt like they were swallowing cat hair while wearing them.

EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS

Third-driest year reported in California.

Rescuers hampered by damaged roads, torrential rains in Indonesia. Torrential rains caused multiple disasters on remote eastern Indonesian islands as well as in East Timor. At least 133 people died and dozens were missing in Indonesia, and 27 deaths were reported in East Timor. A tropical cyclone causing the damage is expected to continue affecting the Southeast Asian nations for days while moving south toward Australia.

Deadly downpour triggers severe flooding in Queensland, Australia. Severe flooding lashed Queensland’s southeast following heavy rains over last weekend, resulting in at least four fatalities. Up to 153 mm (6 inches) of rain fell in a 24-hour period on Monday.

Western Australia under rare weather threat of three strong tropical systems. Residents are warned to brace for intense winds, rain, and possible flooding from Tropical Cyclone “Seroja” late Sunday or early Monday (April 11/12). In a rare weather event, two other potentially strong storms are looming with the potential to hit the area over the coming days.

LAST DAYS TRAITORS EXPOSED

Pentagon linguist found guilty of leaking US intel – relating also to Israel – to Hezbollah contact. Mariam Taha Thompson, a Pentagon linguist with top security clearance, pleaded guilty to passing to a Hezbollah associate classified US intelligence information sought by Iran on the US drone attack that killed top Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani.

What’s He Hiding? Georgia’s Secretary of State Raffensperger Petitions Court – Prefers State Not be Forced to Hand Over Ballots for Audit. Georgia’s corrupt Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger sent a request to the courts requesting that ballot images taken from the voting machines in Georgia be the only source of evidence to be used in an upcoming audit in Fulton County. Raffensperger doesn’t want the paper ballots reviewed.

Questions The Media Should Ask President Biden About His Call For Economic Sanctions On Georgia. The so-called United States President has, for the first time in American history, called for an economic boycott and economic sanctions of a member state over dutifully and legally passed legislation. The questions refer to Biden’s call for an economic boycott of Georgia over its decision to pass SB202, which will put into place mild election integrity reforms.

Media Assists in the Orwellian agenda

Anti-Israel Administration in Action

Biden Directs $250 Million to “Palestinian” Terrorists. The trillion dollar printing press known as the American taxpayer is back on the hook, this time for a whopping first installment of some $250 million in aid to the PLO terrorists and their allies operating in Gaza and the West Bank thinly disguised as humanitarian aid. The money never gets to the citizens. The ruling terrorist regime takes it all to pay for tunnels and weapons, etc., to use against Israel. That has been obvious all along.

Armed Gunmen Appear at Georgia Capitol on Monday – But It’s Ok – They’re with Black Lives Matter. The Big Media is quick to label the events that occurred in Washington D.C. on January 6th as an armed insurrection, when it was not.  But when BLM members bring AK 47’s to the Georgia Capitol, there’s no mention of guns.

NATION (ETHNIC) AGAINST (ETHNIC) NATION

Deliberate Divide and Conquer Agenda

2+2=5: Oregon Department of Education Pushes Course Claiming Math is Racist Because It Requires a Correct Answer. No need to make stuff up in these Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone days. What’s going on is stranger than fiction and more frightening. The “white supremacy culture” cited by the document includes a focus on “getting the ‘right’ answer” and requiring students to show their work. It claims this discriminates against students of color.

‘Completely anti-biblical’: Target selling devotional book that includes prayer to ‘hate white people.’ The book is sold in Target’s ‘Christian Life’ section and includes a “prayer” written by a black female professor who asks God to help her “hate White people.” It was published in February and was a New York Times bestseller. The author specifically targeted “Fox News-loving, Trump-supporting voters.”

Liberal Boston Hospital to Set Up Preferential Treatment Based on Race, Whites Last – Wants to Make This a National Policy. The proposed “pilot initiative” uses a “reparations framework” that focuses on “Black and Latinx patients and community members” and prioritizes their care. The authors of the program insist that the Boston initiative be a “replicable pilot program” to be launched in hospitals across the country.

HATE HOAX: Black student was responsible for hate graffiti at Albion college done in attempt to implicate white people as the perpetrators. The black student wrote messages such as “white lives matter” and “white power,” and “666” on top of a Star of David, alongside “let’s kill all N*****.”

Black Nation of Islam movement leader Farrakhan (Rabid Hater of Jews and White People) Calls Islam Supporter’s assault on the U.S. Capitol a ‘Brother with Such Great Potential.’ The Nation of Islam supporter killed one police officer after ramming his car through a barrier at the Capitol and attacked a second officer with a knife before being shot and killed by police.

BORDER DISORDER

Border Officials Encounter 172,000 Illegals in March – 71% Increase from February. The majority were single adults, and included 18,890 unaccompanied children — a 100% increase from the already high numbers (100,441) encountered in February, and the largest monthly number in over a decade.

Deputy Border Chief Estimates ‘Way Over 100,000’ Illegal Border Crossers Evaded Capture This Year.

New York State To Give Up To $2.1 Billion To Illegal Immigrants. Just when you thought things couldn’t get more surreal, New York’s Demo-crat-Party-dominated legislature decides to crank the virtue-signaling ‘equity’ amplifier. Embattled Gov. Andrew Cuomo – desperate for any news to distract from his dueling sex abuse and nursing home death scandals – struck a deal with lawmakers to spend $2.1 billion towards to assist jobless workers who were excluded from unemployment benefits during the pandemic – primarily undocumented immigrants and ex-convicts – after activists launched hunger strikes.

WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS

Alleged Israeli airstrikes on Damascus. The strikes reportedly came from the direction of the Golan Heights and targeted sites belonging to the Syrian military and Iranian-backed militias near the Damascus International Airport and in the south and west of Damascus.

Israel bracing for possible attack from Iranian soil. There has been a recent exchange of blows on the high seas, the latest being an alleged Israeli attack on an Iranian spy ship in the Red Sea. The purpose was to let Iran know its recent attacks on vessels owned by Israeli businessmen were out of bounds. Iran: We will respond to attack on our ship in the Red Sea.

Iran is testing nuclear-capable missiles, Israeli ambassador reveals. Iran has been testing nuclear ballistic missiles for months, violating UN Resolution 2231.

US Navy sends warship near Taiwan as China sends 15 warplanes. A US guided-missile destroyer sailed through the Taiwan Strait amid China flying 15 warplanes around Taiwan in an ongoing pressure campaign against the island. The U.S. 7th Fleet said, “The ship’s transit through the Taiwan Strait demonstrates U.S. commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific.

Russian Gunboats Head To The Black Sea To Join Military Buildup Near Ukraine. The deployment is ostensibly part of a larger series of readiness drills, but comes amid a continuing and worrisome Russian military buildup near the country’s borders with Ukraine.  There has been a spike in GPS jamming in the region, which has impacted the ability to monitor the situation. All of this only further fuels concerns that a significant escalation in the conflict between these two countries may be imminent. [Putin’s power grab has implications that go well beyond the Crimean Peninsula. It’s a far more serious situation than many realize and has implications for the Middle East and the world.]

U.S. warships to deploy in Black Sea until May 4. Two U.S. warships will pass through the Turkish Straits to be deployed in the Black Sea until May 4. The U.S. Navy regularly sends its fleet to the Black Sea, but the deployment of warships will now be a special signal for Russia.

EUROPEAN UNION POWER GRAB

Macron’s Brussels power grab: Globalist Emmanuel Macron ready to use Merkel exit to be EU’s leader. With Merkel set to step down as Chancellor this year, we can assume (from all we’ve seen of France’s President Emmanuel Macron and his pursuit of global power) that ‘Jupiter man’ is hoping to use her departure to pave the way for his pursuit to become the European Union’s de-facto leader. Since the UK departed the bloc, Macron has become a leading voice in pushing EU integration across the continent. Also, Macron has long pushed for a collective EU military force.

If the Leftist agendas don’t finish collapsing the US before the rapture, the repercussions from the rapture would be the death blow to this nation. It would likely be absorbed into the European system from which the man of sin, the Antichrist, will emerge, whoever he turns out to be.

APOSTASY AND DOCTRINES OF DEMONS

Hatred of Christians aka Hatred of God

Christians in Indian village beaten, forced to reconvert to tribal religions. Christian families in a village in Chhattisgarh fled after villagers belonging to a tribal religion ostracized and threatened to kill them if they did not convert back to their ancestral religion, but the 10 Christians who could not flee were beaten and forced to “reconvert.”

Hatred of Jews and Israel aka Hatred of God

The last known Jew in Afghanistan is leaving. The man who has been known as the last Jew in Afghanistan for well over a decade is leaving for Israel, fearing that the U.S. military’s promise to leave the country will leave a vacuum to be filled with radical groups such as the Taliban.

Nature-Worshipers and Global Government Pushers

Sweden cancels Bill Gates funded test to block the sun. The goal of this computer billionaire, who supports decreasing the world’s population, as well as the goal of the other globalists is to try and block the sun’s rays in order to offset so-called” global warming.

“Professing to be wise, they became fools…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 1:22, 25).

Prince William Promotes the New World Order’s “Great Reset” and nature worship. He’s confirmed that he’s at least as dodgy a kingly prospect as his father by calling for this ‘Reset.’ William slipped the codeword into a video broadcast for the environmental charity Conservation International. He said: “All of us, across all sectors of society, and in every corner of the globe must come together to fundamentally reset our relationship with nature and our trajectory as a species.” He must assume that the NWO mantra “you’ll own nothing and be happy” doesn’t apply to him.

Pope Calls For Massive Wealth Redistribution and Bemoans debt to Nature (aka ‘Mother Earth’)

What Does This Mean, And What Does the Bible Say?

I recommend reading the entire article and the one it links to at the end as well, but here are some excerpts:

The Marxist “global government and global religion pushing” pope told the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund, “We cannot overlook the ‘economical debt’ that exists especially between the global north and global south.” Continuing, the pope said, “We are, in fact, in debt to nature itself, as well as the people and countries affected by human-induced ecological degradation and biodiversity loss.”

[Do not be deceived by his smooth talk]. What exactly does that mean?

The Pope seems to be talking about a massive redistribution of wealth. And a “grave” sin against Mother Nature—that can probably never be fully redeemed. The redemption the pope sees for the sins against nature then becomes the redemption for having more wealth than our neighbor, which creates the need for a global mechanism to facilitate putting in place a consolidated global world monetary system.

What would follow? A one-world government to oversee the global financial system? Would a one-world religion necessarily need to follow the one-world monetary and one-world governance to eliminate “extremism” from corrupting the one-world social order? Apparently, the answer is “yes.”

[However] honest biblical research shows, not the socialism being advocated by the pope and others on the religious left, but a form of capitalism actually aligns itself with the teachings of Jesus.

God granted men land and possession. With this grant God expected the men to increase their wealth. The parable of the talents in Matthew 25 demonstrates that mankind is expected to increase its wealth. The employee is also expected to increase his employer’s wealth in accordance with their ability. The Bible tells us in a number of places that we must work to eat. Ecclesiastes 5:18 is one place. You can look up the others. Jesus was clear that we as individuals are to help the poor and the needy, BUT….

Nowhere in the Bible does Jesus authorize us to transfer our individual responsibilities to the government or anyone else. The Bible does not support the kind of welfare industry we have created in the name of “compassion.” In most cases, it is not compassionate. It has created a class of dependent people, which has now become generational. Welfare, as we know it, has become a life of dependence and bondage, controlled by those in power, used to keep them in power.

That isn’t biblical. Those whom the Son sets free, are free indeed. The biblical model is God’s people voluntarily doing God’s work, including charitable acts for the poor and those in need. That doesn’t look like the forced redistribution of wealth that the religious left insists upon imposing under the guise of “compassion.” It looks more like Karl Marx’s failed socialism.

Also see Pope Francis calls for ‘global governance’ and ‘universal vaccines’ in letter to globalist financial summit. Pope Francis has addressed the World Bank and International Monetary Fund at their spring meeting, calling for “global governance” in light of COVID-19, strongly advocating for universal vaccines, and bemoaning the “ecological debt” which is owed to “nature itself.”

Welcoming Godlessness

So-called pastor Claims Easter transcends Jesus’ resurrection and People Can Save Themselves. Rev. Raphael Warnock, Democrat U.S. senator from Georgia and pastor of Atlanta’s Ebenezer Baptist Church, said, “The meaning of Easter is more transcendent than the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Whether you are Christian or not, through a commitment to helping others we are able to save ourselves.” After backlash, the tweet was removed from his social media page.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Godless America: Anticipating The Antichrist. A recent article in L.A.Times titled, “Why America’s Record Godlessness is Good News for the Nation, claims “The secularization of U.S. society–the waning of religious faith, practice and affiliation–is continuing at a dramatic and historically unprecedented pace. While many may consider such a development as a cause for concern, such a worry is not warranted. This increasing godlessness in America is actually a good thing, to be welcomed and embraced.”

CONCLUSION

We’re surely at the door of the Day of the Lord when his wrath pours out so strongly that today’s problems pale in comparison. Read Romans 1:18-32, Luke 17:26-30, and 2 Timothy 3 for starters, and heed the warnings God is giving in these wicked days. Turn to Christ now if you haven’t!

“Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty” (Isaiah 13:6).
