What? Wait a Minute! :: By Bill Wilson

Marxist groups that want to defund the police, abolish the traditional role of fathers in the family, and set all prisoners free because of racism are being celebrated by political leaders and the news media— What? Wait a minute! The world is being shut down by the fear of a virus where there is a 99% chance of survival— What? Wait a minute! People have adopted the slogan, “Hate doesn’t live here,” but call everyone who disagrees with them racists, bigots, hatemongers and more— What? Wait a minute! Mayors in the largest cities in the US are demanding the defunding of police yet are turning a blind eye to riots, murders, crime, vandalization of businesses—What? Wait a minute! These are just some headlines; here are more.

Democrats blame the president for COVID 19 deaths, but offer no solution to what they call a national pandemic– What? Wait a minute! The New York governor sends people infected with COVID 19 to nursing homes and then tries to blame the president for huge numbers of nursing home deaths– What? Wait a minute! Now he’s saying that criticism of his actions is just politics—nothing to see here– What? Wait a minute! Riots in Seattle and Portland, the mayors and Democrat politicians there refusing to restore order, but blame the president– What? Wait a minute! The Speaker of the House invoking Nazism when the president sends federal agents to restore order in riot-torn Democrat-controlled cities– What? Wait a minute!

The US closed Chinese consulate offices amid an array of issues, including COVID 19 and spying, and China retaliates by saying the US is responsible for all of the deterioration in US-China relations– What? Wait a minute! Democrat governors and mayors are issuing orders and punishments for not following lockdowns and wearing masks, yet their states and cities are the most infected with COVID 19– What? Wait a minute! Those same politicians want businesses shut down and people in lockdown, but they support rioters in the streets– What? Wait a minute! Former Vice President Joe Biden says that black people are not really black if they don’t vote for him– What? Wait a minute!

In more than 80 pages in the Democratic National Committee’s draft platform published by Politico, whites are mentioned 15 times, all critical, including three references to white supremacy or supremacists and one to white nationalists, which likely encourages more rioting in the name of racism–What? Wait a minute!

Do you see the pattern in all these headlines? The nation has gone crazy. Proverbs 12:15 says, “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But he who heeds counsel is wise.” America is adrift in foolishness. Oh, one more—Major League Baseball has no fans in the stadiums, so it is populating seats behind home plate with cardboard cut-outs of fans—What? Wait a minute! Put on the brakes. We need the LORD.

The Prophetic American Valley of Decision :: By Bill Wilson

Joel 2:1 says, “Blow the trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; For the day of the LORD is coming, For it is at hand.”

America needs to sound the alarm, for there is a day of reckoning fast approaching. Americans are truly in a valley of decision, and the future of this country for generations hangs in the balance.

There are two recent news events that underscore a dangerous pattern for America that jeopardizes both freedom of speech and of religion: a recent election in New York, and the ongoing investigation of the Obama-Clinton-Democratic National Committee’s use of the secret FISA Court to spy on and undermine a duly-elected president.

Across America, Democratic-controlled cities face tremendous crime waves and financial issues. Yet, the Party leadership continues to advocate for unprecedented actions such as defunding police, deficit spending, and a demand for federal money to bail them out. These socialist ideals are destructive to all Americans because they are led by extremists and radicals who want to deconstruct the country.

Last week in the New York City borough of the Bronx, for example, the powerful chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Eliot Engel, was defeated by a socialist upstart middle school principal who had the backing of socialists Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The primary was held June 23, and only now enough ballots have been counted to give Jamaal Bowman a stunning 15-point victory.

There are so many fishy things about this “election.” Mail-in ballots. A political socialist upstart with no prior experience toppling a 30-year incumbent. This is reminiscent of how socialist Ocasio-Cortez upset long-term entrenched Democrat Joe Crowley in 2018.

Couple this with the trend of continuous and ongoing “investigations” against political opponents by the Democrats, and America is not-so-suddenly looking like a revolutionary communist state. The declassified documents of the investigation of the Steele dossier, paid for by the Clinton Campaign and the DNC and used by Obama for FISA warrants to spy on Trump’s campaign, clearly indicate the deep state and the Democrats tried to prevent Trump from taking office. Their efforts to remove Trump on false information have continued with Soviet-like tribunals since 2016.

These trends are alarming. The Democratic Party is already socialistic, yet it is becoming even more socialist. Presidential candidate Joe Biden is considering selecting a socialist running mate, like Elizabeth Warren. The Democratic Party, like the socialists and communists in other regimes across the world, is showing its vast appetite for endless investigations and disruption of the election process. Defunding the police, vote by mail, taking over a month to declare primary victors, vilifying and labeling anyone who disagrees with them are all revolutionary steps.

Left unchecked, these people will dictate a police state in the name of justice and freedom that will destroy free speech and religious freedom—the enemies of tyranny.

America needs to sound the alarm, for we are in a valley of decision.
