Theology and Politics from a Conservative, Biblical Perspective

We’re all familiar with the saying that goes something like, “A lie repeated often enough becomes the truth” or something similar. This saying is often attributed to Hitler, Goebbels, Lenin or someone similar. It doesn’t really matter who said it. What matters is how often it is employed by people or groups seeking to change the truth by stating a lie. Once that lie is stated often enough, too many people within a society start believing it.

It makes sense that someone of Hitler’s deranged caliber is credited with coming up with that one because too often, mad men like him are often very intellectual to the point of madness and so enamored with themselves. They are so completely taken over by something that they can easily sway public opinion and gain huge followings because of the sheer tenacity and believability of their persona.

We are seeing this play out in society quite clearly these days. Lies are being presented as truth and of course, the corrupt/colluding media does its part by presenting things from an emotional virtue or feeling viewpoint rather than a factual one. They deliberately present lies as truth in order to change the narrative.

In essence, as we’ve said many, many times before, these last days are scheduled to get worse and worse and are reflective of what the Scriptures tell us. It appears that the Left wants to paint all conservatives as “white supremacists” so that they can attack without concern and they will have the media’s stamp of approval on it so that conservatives will become a silent group, too afraid to say anything and certainly unwilling to wear any Trump-related hats or shirts for fear of being assaulted or even killed.

This is all part of the lies put forth and spread by the enemy of our souls. That’s where it starts with evil people carrying the banner and torch because they reject Sovereign God. It seems clear that things are not going to slow down but will most likely ramp up into greater acts of vandalism and assault. I’m not a prophet, but I can see a time coming when critical analysis of an event won’t be tolerated at all and people calling for calm will be shouted down. Satan knows his time is short and he’s working very hard to create the havoc he needs in society in order to bring about the one-world government needed to bring Antichrist to the fore.

I wish I could say it wasn’t going to happen. I wish I could say that America at least is in the clear, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. I note with sadness and fascination how God, through Isaiah and Jeremiah foretold of events that would specifically happen to Israel (and Judah). God told the people of Israel that if they went into captivity accepting their punishment, things would go fairly well with them. In fact, they were told to pray for the place where they were being taken to because that area’s welfare also meant their welfare. Israel was going to be punished by God (using Nebuchadnezzar to do so), and the Israelites needed to accept their punishment (Jeremiah 27-29).

Today, battle lines are being drawn and people are expected to take sides. It might be better to stay away from all public events, marches, or rallies that are political in nature. That of course, is up to you to decide.

Make no mistake though. God is fully in control of history. He is sovereign. There is no doubt about that. The Word and history proves it repeatedly. What God has said through the prophets and numerous portions of Scripture will come to pass. Even though the entire nation of Israel suffered the consequences of their evil rulers and elite, there were people in Israel who were devout and honest in their dedication, worship, and submission to the Lord. People like Daniel and others suffered for the evil of Israel’s/Judah’s kings and were taken captive by Babylon. Yet, in spite of the situation, God continued to these and others like them who sought Him in humility and sincerity of heart.

The world is moving toward judgment and certainly that’s been said so often that people don’t even hear it after a while. Truth is that what is coming cannot be avoided. Evil people sold out to Satan and his purposes have made that a surety. In spite of this though, Christians need to get and remain close to God, as Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, and many others did during the crises they faced during their lives.

I will say this again and again. If you consider yourself a Christian and you are not reading His Word with purpose and passion every day, you are effectively going with food or water. You cannot survive. While your salvation is certainly intact, your testimony for God will be dull and lifeless.

The prophet Isaiah had an overpowering understanding of his own corruption as he stood before God as we read in Isaiah 6.

1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.

2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.

3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.

5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts. – Isaiah 6:1-5 KJV

Here is Isaiah in God’s Presence, whether by vision or something else is not clear. But he saw the very throne room of God! He saw God’s majesty. He saw God’s train that filled the temple. He saw, heard, and experienced the seraphim worshiping God Almighty! He felt the movement of the posts of the door and saw and smelled the smoke!

What was Isaiah’s reaction to this? His own uncleanness! He was beside himself with remorse. Here he was in God’s holy Presence and his own filth became that much more pronounced. How could it not, yet this prophet Isaiah had already been used by God to bring a prophetic message to the wayward people of Israel. Yet, he learned that he was no better than they because he also was “unclean” as he stood there in God’s Presence.

God of course had the solution for Isaiah.

6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:

7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. (KJV)

It was God’s grace, God’s action that removed Isaiah’s uncleanness. There was absolutely nothing Isaiah could have done to make himself clean. It was all up to God. Isaiah was not only willing but so grateful that he quickly volunteered to become God’s messenger on earth to the people of Israel whatever the cost. Many commentators believe that ultimately, Isaiah was “sewn asunder” by Mannasah (Hebrews 11:37; see also Apochrypha & Pseudopigrapha).

A person who has seen God’s glory will follow God even if it means a martyr’s brutal death. This only comes by knowing God. How do we today get to know God? Visions of Him in His temple are not the norm. Being whisked away by the Spirit to the heavenly courts are also not the norm. How then can we “see” God? How can we come to the point of understanding – truly understanding – that compared to God we are nothing? Even as Christians, with our unrighteousness exchanged for the perfect righteousness of Christ, we are in the end, unclean – sinners, saved solely by God’s grace. There is nothing meritorious that we have done to “earn” salvation. It is freely given.

The fact that this truth does not create within us the deepest facets of humility is due to the fact that we do not spend time with God and His Word on a daily basis.  The more we read His Word, the better we will get to know Sovereign God. In doing so, we will at the same time see His all-sufficiency and our abject uncleanness.

Until we meet again I pray that the Lord will open your eyes to see how much He has truly blessed you!

      2Thess 2:10..because they received not THE LOVE (Agape)of the truth, that they might be saved. 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

      123’s of true Christianity v popular & damnable heresies

      #1 “ONE” not triune: ……PART 4 & 5 HOW MANY GODS ARE THERE FOR THE ONE GOD TO TALK TO?? Who was Jesus praying to??!?…. The real question should be … How does having multiple different persons keep this one God/being/entity from praying to himself?! (The trinitarian “schizophrenic” “god-head”) The Trinitarians want to have their cake and eat it too as the saying goes. On the one hand they need to say they only worship one indivisible God being/ entity but on the other hand they feel the need for some reason to keep Jesus or God from praying and talking to himself by dividing him up into different persons!?! It never occurs to them that that since there is only one indivisible God to pray too and Jesus is that indivisible God come in the flesh that he would need to talk to himself as to show us how to live, suffer, pray and die for our/ flesh) benefit not his!?!….. So while Trinitarians are quick to complain that God was not talking to himself at Christ baptism or in Gen “let us” they ignore the logical demands of their own theology! If Jesus is the ONE GOD in flesh and the Father is the SAME ONE GOD in heaven then Trinitarianism demands THE ONE GOD is talking to HIMSELF the same “being”! Claiming that God is multiple different persons as the reason for why God is not talking to himself (because God is three different “selfs”) only demonstrates that what they really worship is in fact not a ONE GOD who talks to himself but three different god “selfs”/ and they all talk to each other! When they speak about who God was talking and praying to, they are quick to say “the other person, NOT HIMSELF!” But if you ask them how many gods do they pray to then they will say “ONLY ONE”!?! They expect you to believe that those three different persons are THE ONE GOD-BEING” which is like calling three different cars “THE ONE VEHICLE” (they are text book examples of prov 26:12)
      Mark 12:28…Which is the first commandment of all? 29. …Hear, O Israel; THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD: 30. And ………..this is the first commandment….. 31. And the second is….. IF YOU CAN’T GET THIS “FIRST OF ALL COMMANDMENTS” RIGHT, ALL THE REST OF YOUR “FAITH” AND PREACHING ON LOVE & SIN IS MOOT

      PART 6: THE ANTI CHRIST….WHERE? WHERE?….EVERYWHERE!!! …..IT”S YOU O TRINITARIAN!
      “WHO” it was (what person) that came “IN THE FLESH”, IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR IN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE “ANT-CHRIST”! Even Islam claims Jesus was the Jewish messiah/Christ who was to come in the flesh) they all deny “WHO” it was (what person) that came (to be the Christ) in the flesh!?!…….To deny the father is to deny the son because they are one and the same person that came in the flesh!
      JOHN 14: 8-20 ….Note Isaiah 9:6. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: …: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, … the everlasting Father ….The son, father/Holy Spirit are all the same person, NOT like two different persons working together even as “one flesh” ….The “oneness” between Christ and the father is not comparable to a man & his wife, for only a fool would say “When you have seen me you have seen my wife, how sayest thou then, Shew us your wife?” Notice they asked to see THE FATHER and the response was Jn 14:9 ..“HAVE I BEEN SO LONG time with you, and yet hast THOU NOT KNOW ME, Philip…..Now image some fool trying to claim that statement if you asked to see his wife!?!!? You want to see the FATHER but have I been with you but you don’t know me!?!?!
      Jn 14 continued….…………..17. Even THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH; (Jn 14:6 I AM the way, THE TRUTH,) whom the world cannot receive, .. for HE DEWLLETH WITH YOU, (present tense/standing next to them in the flesh) and SHALL BE IN YOU… (future tense “In them”) 18. I will not leave you comfortless: I WILL COME TO YOU (future tense “In them”) Note: The spirit of Christ is the sprit of God and the holy spirit that is why Christ said “I will come to you” (to comfort them, because Christ is the comforter). The spirit was standing next to them in flesh… ….latter it would come to them to be inside of them (inside of their flesh as the spirit we are given)…..that is why. he would send the spirit…… However, Jesus himself here makes the point that the same person who was the HOLY SPIRIT that would come was standing next to them but lets them know “I will come to you again to be Inside of you”
      The whole point to Gal 3:20.a mediator is NOT A MEDIATOR OF ONE, (HEIS) but GOD IS ONE. (HEIS) again, point blank, identifies the number of persons of God! The “but” points out the contrast between multiple persons in a mediation party v the “one” of God. God is not like a mediation party with multiple different persons. …..”the express image of his person” ( the person of God; singular not plural).Any attempt to lay claim otherwise is willful ignorance and delusional nonsense
      TRINITARIANS CONFESS JESUS /THEY ARE NOT POLYTHEIST BUT ARE MONOTHEIST LIKE A LIAR & THIEF WHO “CONFESS” THEY DO NOT LIE OR STEAL The simple fact is that just because you confess or deny that you are in an adulterous relationship and denounce all forms of adultery has nothing to do with whether or not it is in fact adulterous! .. …A rose by any other name is still just a rose AND calling it a water lily does not change the definition of what a water Lilly or a rose is either!…No, Trinitarians confess & preach literally …”ANOTHER JESUS” 2 Cor 11:4
      - Like a thief in your house caught stealing your things insisting he was not there stealing “I CONFESS I am NOT stealing”. You just do not “properly understand” what he is doing/saying. Further, since you never had a “proper understanding” of what he is doing/saying you have no business accusing him since you do not even know what you are talking about in the first place. It is with and in your own ignorance that you base your “false accusations” & “ad homonym attacks” against him…… Ridiculous of course it is ……2Thess 2:11; Titus 1:16; 2Tim 3:5;
      …… should have given you a hint, harking back to Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. God uses head and right arm to explain the distinctions between father and son.. However, the Trinitarian heretics say to the effect: “NO, that is just a figure of speech, or that is not what God really means. What God is really saying is that God is three different persons”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!

      #2 SECOND COMING Thou Fool! “I come quickly” so “Hold fast
      till i come”… NOT …“in another 2000 yrs I might be coming soon any time now, so hold fast”!?! …those that deny the second coming of Christ in the war of AD70 are practicing a damnable heresy in denying the lord that bought them ( 2Peter 2:1-2 ;2Tim 4:8/ you cant love an appearing you deny& the context is the 2nd coming not the first)… Mat 7:23..”I NEVER KNEW YOU” …..Mat 10:33. But whosoever shall deny me before men……..sound familiar?…. If I said I am coming to your house in this generation when these things happen but no one knows the day or hour what fool would think I might be coming in 2000 years latter!?!? ..2 Tim 4: 4. And
      they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be TURNED UNTO FABLES.
      2Thess 2: 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

      #3 There is a sharp contrast between THREE groups :
      (1) “PREDESTINED DAMNED” who were NEVER written in the book of life ………..Rev 17: 8 WHOSE NAMES WERE NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, …as contrasted …EPH 1: 4. According as he hath CHOSEN US in him BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD
      (2) “MANY CALLED”= ONLY and ALL SAINTS (those who come to Christ) are written in the book of life … Philippians 4:3… ……Rev 21:27; (Only saints are Called and elect; Rom 1:6-7 et al) This is THE CHRUCH and ONLY these can have their names blotted out of the book of life ….….Heb 12:23 to the general assembly and CHURCH of the firstborn … WHICH ………are WRITTEN in heaven,
      (3) THE FEW CHOSEN: Those saints who were alive in group #2 who are now physically dead. They died “faithful” these are the FEW that were chosen faithful…….Rev 3:5. ……; and I
      will not BLOT OUT HIS NAME OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, (Ps 69:28) …. These are the FEW that are CHOSEN and now that they have died and are saved then “once saved THEY CAN NEVER BE LOST”
