Is Freedom so Precious, Life so Dear? :: By Bill Wilson

The Apostle Paul wrote in Galatians 5:1, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”

The brave men who put to ink their signature upon the Declaration of Independence knew they were about to change the world. They knew they would either be successful in establishing this new nation or die in the process; and they bound themselves in covenant that they would live free or die. Today, even this past week, the U.S. Supreme Court and many elected officials and ministers of the Gospel deny these men had anything to do with Christ. But history and the facts prove otherwise. Here are a few direct quotes from some of these men:

“We have this day restored the Sovereign, to Whom alone men ought to be obedient. He reigns in heaven and from the rising to the setting sun, may His Kingdom come” – Samuel Adams, July 4, 1776.

“The moral principles and precepts contained in the scripture ought to form the basis of all our civil constitutions and laws. All the miseries and evil men suffer from: vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery, and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the Bible” – Noah Webster.

“We have no government armed in power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other” – John Adams.

“I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth—that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the Sacred Writings, that “except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it.” I firmly believe this. I also believe that without His concurring aid we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel” – Benjamin Franklin.

What? Benjamin Franklin referring to scripture? I’m sure this is rarely, if ever, taught in the public school system.

In Ezekiel 3:19, the Lord says, “Yet if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.”

Hear this: Those who would deny God, deny the deity of Jesus Christ, and seek to diminish the role of the Godhead in establishing and blessing this nation as set in the words and deeds of the Founding fathers – whether so done in the pulpit, or in the classroom, or in the courtroom, or on the street, or in the secret place of the heart – should fear God and repent.

The Lord has seen fit to provide us—even this generation of Americans—freedom to worship and to share the gospel of Christ. Freedom is so precious in sharing the good news, and life is essential to share it.

Know Christ; know liberty; know life.

Have a blessed and powerful day,

Principalities Of Darkness… :: By Bill Wilson

Principalities Of Darkness / America Losing Stigma About Communism 

Principalities of Darkness Within Human Flesh

All the talk about Russian collusion and whether President Donald Trump was in cahoots with the Russians to win the 2016 Presidential election is a ploy in so many ways. There were communists in key positions of the so-called investigation of Trump’s ties with Russia who were trying to overturn an election. Hillary Clinton is no saint. We know her immoral and unethical doings, but perhaps we need to closely look at the attempt by the deep state community to use willing Russian agents to destabilize the election and the US government to keep control of the White House—a non-military coup aimed at maintaining a power that is foreign to the voting public. This is not a conspiracy theory.

Three key players in the Russian Influence con were (former) FBI Director James Comey, (former) CIA Director John Brennan, and (former) National Intelligence Director James Clapper. They are all master manipulators, deep state intel veterans. Comey, Brennan, and Clapper were appointed by Barack Obama. All three also were connected to the George W Bush Administrations in various ways.

Recall that after the 2016 election, the New York Post reported that the outgoing president was establishing a shadow government to maintain power through a series of nonprofits, government insiders and appointed judges in the court system. Most know that these three actors were intimately involved in trying to take down the newly-elected president. What you may not have known is a shocking revelation of these perilous times.

Washington Times columnist Robert Knight and author Diana West have revealed a legitimate communist concern surrounding these men:

Knight reports that West, in her book “The Red Thread,” documents that Brennan and Comey were communists. West documents Brennan’s September 16, 2016 “admission of voting for the Communist Party USA ticket in 1976” during testimony before the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation.

Knight reports that Comey admitted identifying as a Communist when he was a young man, and “still reveres Marxist theologian Reinhold Niebuhr as his spiritual lodestar.”

Clapper told the House Intelligence Committee in 2011 that the terrorist-sponsoring Muslim Brotherhood was “secular” and that it had no “overarching agenda.”

The Clinton-Bush-Obama one-world-order machinations materially changed the gears of government and instituted a deep state system counter to majority rule. This system uses various means and actors to cause strife, contention, and awe to disrupt the will of the electorate. It is the deepest, darkest evil of what is now known as the “swamp.”

Habakkuk 1:4 says that because strife exists and contention arises, “Therefore the law is slacked, and justice does never go forth: for the wicked does surround the righteous; therefore perverse judgment proceeds.”

These godless coup-makers and their minions are in a death struggle to impose their will. Any who threaten it will suffer consequences. Be mindful that Christianity is an ultimate threat because it is the antithesis of the control and bondage these usurpers wish to oversee.

America Losing Soviet-Era Stigma About Communism

Azios reports a Harris poll for “Axios on HBO” finds that socialism is gaining popularity as 4 in 10 Americans say they would prefer living in a socialist country over a capitalist one. This corroborates a Gallup poll in April that some 43% of Americans believed socialism is good for America. Axios reports that it is significant that socialism is losing its Soviet-era stigma, especially among women: “Popular Democratic socialists like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders are bringing new life and meaning to the term.” The Harris poll indicated that “55% of women between 18 and 54 would prefer to live in a socialist country than a capitalist country. But a majority of men prefer to live in a capitalist country.”

The Gallup poll indicated “a majority of Democrats have said they view socialism positively in Gallup polling since 2010, including 57% in the most recent measure in 2018.” The Gallup survey also found that nearly 30% of Americans want government distribution of wealth, 35% want government responsibility for wages, and 33% want government control over the economy.

Interesting that these percentages coincide with the percentage of the population who are also registered Democrats, although the Gallup survey did not distinguish party affiliation. The Harris poll shows that Americans are accepting of socialism despite 49% understanding that it is a system dependent on dictatorship.

The Communist Manifesto says, “But communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis; it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experience.” Other linchpins of communism are enumerated in the Manifesto: 1) Abolition of property ownership, 2) a heavy progressive income tax, 3) abolition of all rights of inheritance, 4) confiscation of property, 5) centralization of credit, 6) centralization of transportation, 7) centrally planned economy, 8) obligation to work, 9) abolishing distinction between towns and country, and 10) a free education for children.

Since World War I, America has been on the slippery slope toward socialism.

The goal of Soviet Russia was to infiltrate American values with the destructive social goals of the Communist Manifesto. Former Soviet KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov, who defected from the Soviet Union in 1970, was interviewed in 1984 about Soviet infiltration methods. He said that by 1970 the Soviet Union already had infiltrated the US through brainwashing left-leaning people in the news media, entertainment, politics, business, education, and religion.

Progressives are the new communists. Government replaces God.

Exodus 20:3 says, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”

People need to be educated about Soviet-era communism so those who are ignorant of its ramifications are aware. The coup before us is against the Constitutional government of this country, including the freedoms of religion and speech.

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
