Time for our government to open cambridge analytica's books and see/reveal the complete truth. Who is paying for their services? What are those services? Whatever member of congress isn't interested in doing so, make sure you vote for the 'other' candidate.

Weaponized
Now that the internet has been
weaponized by Russia…I’m in the beginning stages of signing off forever. Hello TV again? Well,
that just depends on the integrity of that format. If it becomes obviously compromised, I’m
moving to the little house on the prairie minus commercials. I’m quick on the mute button.
What I loved about the internet
was the information it provided. It was
like having the encyclopedia Britannica (and much more) constantly updated and
on hand at all times. Now that that ‘encyclopedia’
has been corrupted beyond measure, and will be corrupted further without fail,
I am looking elsewhere for facts. Russia is one actor that has successfully
undermined the accuracy of the internet in hopes of undermining democracy, in
an attempt at destroying the USA and its allies. Indeed, information warfare is as dangerous
as anything relating to nuclear and should be defensively responded to in like
fashion. Whether you destroy a nation
with lies and deception and manipulation, or with a nuclear bomb, that nation is still destroyed.
Hopefully ,the alarm just went
off. Time to wake up and do what is
necessary or be complicit in the fate of the world as we know it. Can it be worse? YES, a billion times worse. Remember, the devil is a liar, and the author
of lies (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yck7gb_qdDI
) .
John 8:44… You
belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s
desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there
is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a
liar and the father of lies.
How's that working for you?
I can’t count the times that I have wished that Paul or one
of the other new testament writers would have spelled things out so clearly
that there would never be any room for misunderstanding/misinterpretation. I feel similarly about the creators of the
constitution of the United States of America.
We are living in an age in America where owning guns, any
type of guns, no matter their deadly force, has taken on an almost religious
status. I’m certain that the creators of
our constitution never intended that. At
the time of the writing of our constitution, we were a brand new country, and
without proper organization could be vulnerable to attack. At that time, our primary weapon would be
hard-pressed to shoot one bullet every minute or two. Hence, as a country, we needed a well regulated militia in every state to ensure our country was unified and safe. We needed an adequate deterrent that showed
the world that we couldn’t and wouldn’t be easily over-thrown by outside
forces. If you come after us, you do so
at your own peril. What some gun owners
are forgetting is one thing…this type of deterrent needs to be WELL
REGULATED. You have to be able to work
together seamlessly, even between states, otherwise you have chaos. In reality, it seems the creators of our
constitution explained it pretty well but some people MISS the obvious. For instance, as a gun owner, are you meant
to be part of a well regulated militia? Are you part of the national guard? Yeah…you probably aren’t. You are much more
likely to be an individual that loves your guns more than just
about anything and has somehow made gun ownership part of your patriotic religion. In case you haven’t noticed, at this point in
time, we have a very well regulated/organized militia in every state, and a
federal military that defines the very picture of deterrent. At the time, the
creators of the constitution didn’t have the vision to know how advanced we
would become when it related to weapons and their killing power. My goodness, as we’ve mentioned, they were
still using muskets! The
founding fathers just didn’t know the future.
Now people hang on words they don’t fully understand in the context they
were given and then assign their own meaning to them. Hence, in ignorance they think it’s their
patriotic duty and right to buy the most devastating weapons that they
can. I’ll never believe that was our founding
fathers vision. If the founding fathers knew a time was coming
when just one numbskull, one malcontent, could easily and legally purchase a weapon
that could kill/wound a hundred innocent people in a moment or two, I’m most
certain they would have edited whatever they were thinking of saying and said
something far more limiting and defined.
Yeah, as a current/typical gun owner, are you part of a well regulated
militia, or are you just someone that thinks owning the most devastating
weapons on earth at this time is a fun hobby and confirms you as a patriot?
But what if some extremists out there are right? What if it wasn't really about a militia at all? What if the creators of the constitution, were, in actuality, so worried about their own integrity, as well as the integrity of any government official that followed, decided (under pressure - amendment) to allow the masses to be armed as a check on their own government's power? What if they decided that allowing the masses to possess/accumulate weapons was the answer to governing the government?
Yeah, the only problem with that line of reasoning is that the constitution doesn't say that.
How’s that working for you?
Betting on mercy...
Like Noah, I'm betting on mercy. Unlike Noah, I'm celebrating it. Keep up the mercy oh LORD.
What to choose?
When you tell your beloved 85 year old grandmother that they look great in their Easter outfit, that's one thing. When you manage to rise to a high level in government and then you stand before a hundred or more cameras ready to broadcast your comments worldwide and you lie through your teeth, that's quite another thing entirely. A whole lot of politicians stand on that precipice...a win today, but eternal destruction tomorrow? What to choose?
Revelation 21:8..."But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars--they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

Are you watching?
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Though nothing will stop the downward spiral, Jesus told us to 'watch' so that we are not caught unaware. Are you watching?

Step One..
GOD’s way is THE way. I’m not at all sorry that we don’t get a vote. :-) GOD is love.
GOD is light, and there in no darkness in HIM. Any vote we might offer would be
degradation. As anyone that knows scripture would tell you, we (humans) have all fallen short of
HIS glory. There are no human beings that are truly righteous, no
not one. Our righteousness is like
filthy rags (self serving). And then
here comes JESUS! The FATHER designates Him as the way, the truth,
and the life. What does that mean? For one, He is the only way to get to the
FATHER, to access the FATHER, and ultimately, to get to heaven. Why?, because, in HIS perfect wisdom, the
FATHER said so...period, end of
story. That Bible tells us that whoever
has the Son has the FATHER also. Whoever doesn’t have the Son, though, doesn’t have the
FATHER either. Hence, the Son is
essential to salvation. Why? Because the FATHER said so, period, end of story. Heard of humility? Yeah, what that means is YOU and I don’t get
to decide how it works (thank GOD!). GOD
alone does. Are you willing to humble
yourself before GOD and accept HIS way of doing things? After all, HE is love and light and has no
darkness in HIM, and HE is the one in charge of how things work (thank you GOD!). There is really only one way to
eternal life…ie…JESUS. Still, it’s your
choice. Live eternally in heaven with
unspeakable joy, or throw yourself off the cliff and into the lake of fire
because you’d rather rebel than be humble before the creator of the universe? If after GOD has given you a lifetime or more
of infinite opportunities to choose life, and instead, you choose death, isn’t
that on your own head? You chose death. GOD offered you life in Jesus.
