If we place our trust in the Lord our God, Scripture (from Gen. 1-11 through the Book of Revelation), Moral Law, and history as the unfolding of God’s Plan rather than in the rising Global Beast and its evil managers, meaning all current Western god-States, together with expert opinion makers, and high priests of scientism and technology, we will be standing in diametrical opposition to the Beast and its evil managers. And as it was for the ancient church so it will be for the faithful today that the Beast will persecute us. Are we spiritually ready?

An instructor once told me:
“Subject matter experts seldom are.”
And every day in some form or fashion on the topic of the day he is correct.
“For every expert there is an equal and opposite expert.”
I have long held that whenever you see or hear “expert”, as in, “experts say”, what follows is almost certain to be complete b.s., and absolutely wrong.
Never let anyone tell you what God’s Word says without reading it your self to test.
In other words, our society was no longer looking to God, Scripture, and tradition for answers to life’s most meaningful questions, but we were replacing such authorities with a new deity.
