“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” – Edmund Burke
“Evil is powerless if good men are unafraid”. – Ronald Reagan
“If God be for us, who can be against us?” – Romans 8:31
The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?- Psalm 118:6
That’s the same mistake the Israelites made in the book of Samuel when they asked the prophet to anoint them a king, for those very reasons, to defend them against their enemies.
Big mistake. They had been through 400 years with no king, no government at all, and the priests successfully adjudicating disputes along with respected “town fathers” that got that role from their good reputations for being fair. Whence the name of the book, Judges. When they needed defense against enemies, or against attackers and oppressors, and cried out for help, God raised up leaders to gather armies of volunteers to repel them. Like Gideon, who also became one of those judges.
Of course they only got oppressed when they let their guard down, and began taking on the gods and idols of surrounding pagans.
The kings did like Samuel warned them. They laid egregious burdens on the people, took the best livestock, the strongest and eldest sons for battle, and the fairest daughters to marry and to prepare the king’s delights. What broke the back of the kingdom with just the third generation of kings. When Solomon died, the elders came begging for tax relief. The son listened to a new generation of advisers instead of the older wiser ones and told them he would double their burdens. So the ten northern tribes broke off, set up their own kings, and set up their own religious capital. So began the divided kingdom.
Sound familiar? What do they say about history? This generation is looking more and more like the one that will see the rise of the Antichrist and his very quick fall.
Christians should apply God’s wisdom in every generation and follow the example of the prophets that pronounced judgments on Ahab and Jezebel (you thought the Clintons were a new thing?) and Nineveh and Tyre and Sidon.
Good writing, but remember, the rulers in EVERY COUNTRY in the WORLD laid on the Sars-COV-2 commands on the population to imprison yourselves in your houses, keep a good distance away from all your relatives, friends, co-workers and stringers, wear a muzzle over your nose and mouth to show your obedience.
Sweden was a shining counter-example. Some rulers got hip to the con and loosened up earlier than others, like Florida, But the rest that went all in, like we see in the West, shows that the New World “Governance” Order is farther along than we expected.
Pushback is in order, but like never before. But I think this looks like the preliminaries for the events of Revelation. The description of the Great Whore in Revelation 17 and 18 describe the United States, or at least the eastern seaboard or the California coast, pretty much perfectly, especially New York. Interesting that God puts it in the heart of the ten kings that get power with the Beast to destroy the Whore with fire.
Then comes Revelation 13 and “no man shall buy or sell save he that hath the mark”. Yep, they’re training the masses now for that time.
Time for those who haven’t been alert to look at the signs of the times and pray up with Jesus.
