Four congresswomen of color, all ungrateful for the privilege of living in the United States. They’ve been elected to office to lead this government and yet all they do is complain how racist and unfair America is.

It’s no different than ballplayers making millions of dollars, living an expensive lifestyle and doing the same; resenting this country for the freedom it provides them. They’re all spoiled, self-righteous brats. This hatred for America has been ingrained in their brains by leftist school teachers. In fairness they, along with our own children, have been taught that America and its Judeo Christian value system are too blame for all the suffering in the world.

The plan from the very beginning is to undermine the populations allegiance to this country so that their socialist propaganda, seeded in school years, can come to full fruition. We are now entering the violence phase of the game.

The Democrats have played a long game and had been patient till November 2016. Because of the internet, the truth is out of the bag. No longer are we dependant on Marxists for our news. There is a shift in many minds and many are thinking that throwing the whole country away isn’t such a good idea.

Their monopoly is over. They can no longer just make friends and influence idiots. That works for many millennials and die-hards, but there are still a substantial number of people who strive for the normal life of having a family, seeing them grow and prosper, and enjoying their grandchildren.

Pray for peace, but be vigilant. Watch your back. These thugs mean business. Taking no for an answer isn’t an option for them.

I heard some exciting news. Miley Cyrus decided not to have children. She said the earth is too angry to have children. Whatever this intellectual dunce uses for a reason, she has saved a poor helpless baby from being brought up by a pompous Hollywood elite. In general, most kooks hate kids, so they abort them or just make sure they never could have one. But there are a few who make a splash on the tabloids with baby news.

The rest of the culture is much the same, displaying a profound lack of knowledge about anything important. They spout talking points regurgitated by their favorite politician/culture hero and believe every stupid thing hook, line, and sinker. There’s no original thought.

I had lunch in the park with my grandkids in Idaho. My grandson proceeded to tell me that the earth was sick. Really. He’s been in kindergarten and has already been told the earth is sick. No doubt he’s been told what we should do about it too. From the very get-go, they indoctrinate our children in leftist dogma. I told my grandson, the earth is not sick. “No grandpa, my teacher said so; the earth is sick”.

The Democrats are smart. They took over education, decided what your child should learn, who they should believe (not you), and how to “fix” the problems.

My older granddaughter got into a hassle in the sixth grade over Donald Trump. She was told in no uncertain terms what an evil man he was. Sixth grade. Do you remember the sixth grade? How politically concerned were you in the sixth grade? I was still trying to figure out the girl thing. Indoctrination works and it is working well for them.

So, what to do. These liars are just as corrupt and somewhere in their underbelly, they have a weak spot. Find it. Expose it. Mock it. Then earnestly pray their poor eyes will be opened.

The Epstein story may just be the biggest thing to come out of Pandora”s box. to date. Rich guy with low-life morals, finds others in business and politics who have the same desire for sexual perversion, and all Epstein had to do is say, “You know that child you were with? I’ve got the video. Let’s say you do me a favor. We’ll just keep this under the radar and if you’re a good boy, you can come back”.

I’ve been reading Elie Wiesel”s book, Night, which is an account of a young Jewish boy questioning his faith and belief in God. He witnessed the worst that man can dish out. It made him question his belief in God. How could a merciful God allow such things?  The prayers they would utter together were just words. If there was a God, he wasn’t listening or didn’t care. There just couldn’t be a God.  It’s the same question many ask today.

Today we live in very tolerant Sodom and it’s myriad of sister cities. We like it here. Science has indeed made things easier;  pleasure and leisure can be had at our whim. I’m not saying no one has problems, but we live measurably better than our ancestors. I’m really talking to Christian people. We enjoy the freedom that tolerance gives us. We’ve become an accessory in mankind’s quest to make life better instead of coming to grip with our sin.

Lot was a drunkard. He was vexed by the depravity around him so I believe he drank to dull his mind. His wife loved the place. Lot, like Adam, his mentor, succumbed to his wife’s desire for the good life and stayed where she wanted to be: Sodom.  Don’t get me wrong, Lot loved much about Sodom too which is why the angels had to almost drag him out of there. I’m sure he had much to leave behind on a moments notice.

I’m not sure what was righteous about Lot but I have a feeling it was Abraham’s righteousness that convinced God to save Lot just like it’s the righteousness of Christ imparted to us that allows us to have a relationship with God.   It’s odd how two apparently opposite men, Noah and Lot, did the same thing when the God-orchestrated event was over;  they planted a vineyard of grapes for the purpose of making wine and getting mind-numbing drunk.

The months Noah and his family spent on the ark had to have been a terrifying experience and maybe being drunk for a bit seemed like a rational way to cope with their Post Traumatic Stress. That’s one of the reasons drinkers drink, to forget and ignore their problems for a while; the other is to ignore their obligations.

For whatever reason, Lot went a step further down the drunken path. I’ve known drunks and many get so loaded they don’t know where they’ve been or what they’ve done.. This was Lot. He built his vineyard. He made his wine. He got so stinkin’ drunk, he didn’t know when his daughters came into him for sex. They were worried that their family was going to die off and figured they would solve that problem.

From our point of view, this is at best a troubling story. Women are by nature helpmates. What that means is, and wonderfully so, is that women want life to be better.  They want to figure a way to solve problems.  They want to sooth the hurt and make sure things turn out well.  Obviously this is a general statement; I’ve met women of opposite desires.  The daughters of Lot lived in a far different reality than we do now but I it doesn’t take too much looking to find acts as horrible today.  We haven’t changed, really.  We’re just better at hiding or ignoring it.

The apostle Paul tells us that we are to wash our women with the Word of God. We’re to initiate Bible study in our homes which is to remind our women and ourselves what God has said. Adam and Eve both heard God tell them what He expected from them, but because Adam didn’t remind Eve on a regular basis, she became open to seduction. From the get-go, Adam shirked his responsibility and in typical man fashion said: “Whatever you want honey.” I think she was really wanting that apple and no doubt there was some sexual persuasion going on with Adam, so it’s “anything” your pretty heart desires babe.

And what did God say afterward?  Adam, because you have listened to your wife………Lot listened to his wife too. Let’s just stay in Sodom till the children are through school…………. This doesn’t mean we should never listen to our wives. Every decision we make as a couple should be washed with the Word of God. We’re to take every thought and make it accountable to the Word of God. That was the job of Adam, it was the job of Lot, and it’s our job too. We’re supposed to allow the Bible to guide us in our decision making. This isn’t man ruling over woman; it’s God ruling over both.

When we marry, we become one flesh. Our lives are forever entangled. It’s reading and practicing what the Bible says that makes us able to become one before him.  Love is something learned. We’re to love one another and it’s love that covers a multitude of sin. Husband and wife are both sinners. One is not better or more valuable than the other.  We must desire God before we can properly desire each other.

Jesus wondered if there would be any faith when He returned. We’re quickly being thrust into a future of no God. Technology is advancing and what was new becomes outdated rather quickly. Cures for various diseases seem to be imminent. Health challenges are a common reason people seek God. If science becomes our source for answers to our problems, what will we need God for?

We love living well. Who wouldn’t? Jesus said that the poor will always be among us. I take that to mean that not everyone will benefit from the wonders of scientific creation. Granted, we’re making huge progress in helping people out of poverty worldwide, but many are poor because of their own choices in life. I don’t expect drug/alcohol addiction to go away and I don’t expect people to stop hating others. Our medical conditions may change but we are still who we are. We’re sinners.

We’re making the earth a better place to live, at least we think so. Getting back to the words of Jesus about finding faith, I’m thinking that his words were aimed at a particular group and that would be Christians. Many are losing their need and desire for God because of technology.

I couldn’t say it better so I offer an excerpt from his book, Night.

One day, as we returned from work, we saw three gallows, three black ravens,, erected on the Apppelplatz. Roll call. The SS surrounding us, machine guns aimed at us; the usual ritual. Three prisoners in chains-and, among them, the little pipel, the sad-eyed angel.

The SS seemed more preoccupied, more worried, than usual. To hang a child in front of thousands of onlookers was not a small matter. The head of the camp read the verdict. All eyes were on the child. He was pale, almost calm, but he was biting his lips as he stood in the shadow of the gallows.

This time, the Lagerkapa refused to act as executioner. Three SS took his place. The three condemned prisoners together stepped onto the chairs. In unison, the nooses were placed around their necks.

“Long live liberty!” shouted the two men. But the boy was silent. “Where is merciful God, where is He” someone behind me was asking.

At the signal, the three chairs were tipped over. Total silence in the camp. On the horizon, the sun was setting.

“Caps off!” screamed the Lageralteste. His voice quivered. As for the rest of us, we were weeping. “Cover you heads!”

Then came the march past the victims. The two men were no longer alive. Their tongues were hanging out, swollen and bluish. But the third rope was still moving; the child, too light, was still breathing………..

And so he remained for more than half an hour, lingering between life and death. writhing before our eyes. And we were forced to look at him at close range. He was still alive when I passed him. His tongue was still red, his eyes not yet extinguished.

Behind me, I heard the same man asking; “For God’s sake, where is God?” And from within me, I heard a voice answer; “Where He is? This is where-hanging here from this gallows……….”

That night the soup tasted of corpses.
