Stalin & Co. Comeback kids?
That story about California’s proposed legislation to ban “fake news”–by which they mean any reportage or commentary that they, the exalted rulers, don’t like–has inspired some gloomy thoughts among my friends. Because the leftid Bad Guys are acting like they have every expectation of getting away with it.
Why do they think they can kill the First Amendment? Well, say some, they’ve just about completed the job of indoctrinating and radicalizing the young people of every Western country, and now all they have to do is wait for us old folks to die out–maybe even give us a little push in that direction. Keeping tabs on the colleges as we do, it’s hard to argue against that point. They really have done the job, and we have not only let them do it–we have bloody well paid them to do it!
I have a pessimistic nature; but I also have a duty to believe in God, and that the Judge of all the earth will do right. I cannot believe that God is prepared to hand over His whole creation to His enemies. Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against His anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall He speak unto them in His wrath, and vex them in His sore displeasure… (Psalm 2:1-5)
You don’t want to be in their shoes when the Lord stops laughing.
That day is already marked on His calendar.
California appears ready to secede, what with this and the sanctuary thing. 🙂
Can the rest of us secede from California?
I wish. But can we keep Newport Beach? 🙂
Watch Syria. It looks as though there are some hooks in the jaws of some nations – including this one!
We have to support our homicidal maniacs against their homicidal maniacs.
Come, Lord Jesus!
There is tremendous tension all around, including some serious backlash in parts of California. There have been some fairly serious proposals to break the state into at least two, if not more separate states. The dream-world policies of some in the coastal areas are making it all but impossible for the agricultural economy of the Central Valley to function. I drove I-5 from the Oregon border to just north of LA a few years ago and was appalled by the sight of mile after mile of orchard land filled with dead trees. Much of what I saw on that trip, orchard or otherwise, reminded me of Dust Bowl photos.
That is just one facet of a much larger problem. Since the time of the Bible’s completion, people have thought themselves as living in the Last Days. I realize that there is a risk in jumping to this conclusion, but I can’t help but think that we are currently headed down a path of no return without some sort of deliverance. If I understand the scriptures correctly, it will seem as if evil has triumphed; then God vindicates His name.
Due to the current happenings in Syria make me think Isaiah 17 may be imminent. Psalm 83, and Ezekiel 38 -39 are also looking as if they are
getting ready to happen.
I agree. Erdogans Defense Minister has called for an Islamic army from many nations to wipe out Israel. Sounds like Gog of Magog to me.
Mark Zukerberg of FaceBook has been grilled by Congress of late. When he said FaceBook is to ban hate speech, he was asked to define hate speech – he couldn’t do it.
Hate speech is anything a liberal wishes you hadn’t said. 🙂
