"In a 19-17 vote on Monday night, the House Budget Committee shot down the inclusion of the Stupak-Pitts amendment in the health care reconciliation bill. The amendment, which was drafted by Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) last November, would prevent the use of federal funds for abortion and is likely to be addressed by the full House later this week."

The lines are being drawn pretty clearly. It seems that the radicalization of America is serving the purpose of clarifying individual beliefs. I know that this statement is subjective but, to me anyway, some of the muddiness that usually surrounds politics is being hosed off. Even though they're trying to vote for this bill in the house without voting for it we all know what's going on. With most things political it's just the geeks that pay attention and get pissed off about the levels of corruption. This time, it's the whole country.
The same is true in the Church. The veneer of holiness is being stripped from those in the leadership that have decided to follow evil instead of Christ. Whether it's the Progressives in the USCCB or the priests molesting kids, everything is being brought into the open.
I think it likely that evil will once again gain the upper hand and much of what we are seeing will be obscured. But, for a short period of time, man is being given a great grace and a choice. You see, I believe that we are approaching the end of an era. I can feel it in the air and in my soul. Satan has been in control of the earth since the fall. If you believe in such things, which I do, he was given additional power by God to try and destroy the Church about a hundred years ago. This power was to last around a century (See The Vision of Pope Leo XIII).
The time allotted to Satan has passed and along with it a century filled with wars, plagues, famines, holocaust and the most Satanic of all political movements, Communism. We have also seen the "Smoke of Satan" enter God's Church. I read a lot of history so I'm not saying that all of this hasn't happened before. It has. Just not on such a concentrated level and with such a clear intent to destroy not only the Church but to completely disrupt salvation history and, through the attempted destruction of the Jews, man's way to redemption.
God is about to enter history again. Maybe not physically, as with the incarnation, but directly. We will all have to choose sides and because the truth has been exposed we will be held to account for our choice.
For anyone out there that hopes to sit this out and just side with the winner, your actions will serve as your decision. Inaction supports evil because it doesn't oppose it.
We are being called to arms. If we support God we have to speak out. If we support freedom we have to speak out. We can't bury our heads in the sand and hope this goes away. It won't. Everything that we know is about to collapse and our lives will never be the same.
We have the right to make a choice but along with the right comes the obligation to choose. If you don't fulfill the obligation you will lose the right. And if you lose the right to choose you lose the right to freedom along with it.
So make your choice or cower into slavery. It really has become as simple as that. The lines have been drawn clearly now. We have reached an absolutely pivotal point in history. Nothing will ever be the same again. Make your choice and act on it.

Tom,
ReplyDeleteThis is all very simple:
Revelation 12:7-12:
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
Revelation 20:7-15:
And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Sancte Michael Archangele,
defende nos in proelio;
contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium.
Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur:
tuque, Princeps militiae Caelestis,
satanam aliosque spiritus malignos,
qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo,
divina virtute in infernum detrude.
Amen.
It is simple, isn't it? I know people that look for all these complex Byzantine plots and conspiracies and claim that the Church has fallen; that like modern day Gnostics they and they alone have the truth of this destruction and it is hidden from everyone else.
ReplyDeleteMy argument has always been that God knows us and he isn't going to try and fool us. The choices that we will be required to make will be presented to us in simple and very open ways. If we are to be held accountable we must know what we are doing.
These are the choices presented to us now. Everyone is being made aware of the corruption and Satanic influence in all corners of our lives. We have to make a choice; now!
It really is that simple.
