An ill wind is blowing in America. Ordinary citizens from coast to coast are feeling a growing sense of outrage over what they are witnessing in Washington. At least one talk radio host states that the rage he is hearing from his listeners indicates that trouble is brewing beneath the surface that could erupt into the streets, not in violence, but in peaceful protest that sends a signal to Washington.
We simply MUST become involved, deeply involved, and for the long term...and teach our children and grand children to do likewise.
At the same time we MUST be prepared...because the enemies of liberty amongst us have made hug gains and per chance, will not go away quietly, even if we prevail at the gathering places you mention and then ratchet it up from there.
Indeed, we should always be thusly prepared because liberty is under constant threat from those are consumed by their lust for power.
incredible.
Absolutely incredible demonstrations of . . .
perverse human nature, values and choices in our era . . .
I know other eras have had similar . . . but it seems like the boundaries are pushed off the scale in our era in terms of . . . where we came from to where we are now in such a short time.
Sigh.
Too close to the truth, likely,
as to be not very funny.
AMEN.
You are welcome AG, dear sister in Christ. Thank you as always for reading and commenting...and for the great work you have done and continue to do on behalf of our liberties and the One who granted them to us!

BIG AMENS to that!
This side of Armageddon.
I think you speak very wise and very important truth on those scores.
Though . . . I think folks need to be sensitive to Holy Spirit about who is safe to . . . cooperate with and who is not.
Ravi is a great Christian, imho.
Some justice before . . . probably many incidents of such in many regions for many folks . . .
on the whole . . . though . . . imho,
justice will be exacted after Armageddon.
If the oligarchy is essentially in control of . . . most groups . . . who might do anything . . . including the Jihadi’s nuks already here . . .
we shall see what the ‘responses’ might be.
EXCELLENT POINTS.
And clearly we must continually bolster our faith and the faith of those around us. As John Adams said, our Constitution was designed with this in mind and is “wholly inadequate for governing any other”.
Our founders knew this, and our founders certainly did this...but the time came when they also had to stand up and fight the tyrants of their day.
History tells us...and IMHO, the spirit whispers, that such a time is near for us as well.
We should always be prepared for it because liberty is something that the forces and powers of hell continually rale, and wage war against. We must retain our faith, pray to God in Heaven, work hard to change things civilly...but also be prepared to defend ourselves, our families, and our liberties at arms if necessary from evil.

And will increasingly.
Thanks.
I think so, too.
Great points.
Thx.
INDEED.
THX.
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
The
WORD of The Lord
stops them and shreds them.
. . . His angel armies also seem to play a part . . . and perhaps the saints with him on white horses.
. . . at Armageddon.

History:
“How we burned in the prison camps later thinking: What would things have been like if every police operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? If during periods of mass arrests people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever was at hand? The organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt.”

Awesome post. We need to get back to teaching the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Is that something that could be going on in between the tea party events?
Each generation that passes weaken us more because the old guards and guideposts are not carried on. We are dealing with a very patient group that creates and waits for calamities to usher in their way of life.
