Homofascism and the Dark Days Brewing for America

I am sitting in a major grocery superstore that used to espouse family values listening to the muzak. Dawning of the Age of Aquarious, and many other songs that speak openly of rebellion, sex, violence, etc. The brainwashing of the American morality is complete. Just waiting for the final collapse into the abyss...................

I have almost no doubt whatsoever that we are about to enter Daniel’s 70th week and the beginning of the Great Tribulation. We are seeing the greatest worldwide financial/social meltdown in the history of mankind. And it is barely ramping up.

Yeah I heard. October 21st this time.

I’m 58. The first time I ever heard the F word was in 8th grade. Now you even have movies about days before my childhood where gradeschool kids are using the word. Even in “A Christmas Story” the grade school kid uses a word that, a generation later, I did not know existed when I was his age.

And my preschool grandchildren are treeted to pictures of women making out with each other. You think that won’t have a lasting impact? As bad as our culture is, when an entire generation of people that happened on full xxx pictures and/or video when they were in their single digit years reaches adulthood, the world will have reached it’s full measure of evil, we will live in days that makes our current culture look like Ozzie and Harriet.

You can bank on that, IMO.

well since democracy is the lesser evil compared to communism, being that men are imperfect and greedy etc...
so the point is that God has His own reality, the one we lost at the fall of the garden of Eden does not need democracy or communism, it is a kingdom with a perfect King, whose laws are written on our hearts, with no need to enforce as all know the ramifications of disobedience.
so he will only allow the world to slide down to complete the call for sealed souls in the book of life..the fall is necessary to put in his Kingdom..
peace in Christ..

The good news is that Christ WON the victory on the Cross. Christ 1, The Devil 0.

I spent a few months in Afghanistan suporting a sensor porgram that the Marines use. Even before the repeal of DADT, there has been a push within the Marines and other services to normalize homosexuality in the services. I pciked up a former co-worker of mine at the Dubai airport, as he was making his way back to the states for the delivery of his 2nd child. He had a 7 hour layover so we went into town to get a bite to eat and chat over a couple of beers. The things he told me that were going on in Afghanistan, with regards to sexual mis-conduct amongst the troops, turned my stomach. If Americans were to find out what their tax dollars are really paying for in the military, they would march on the capital and burn it to the ground. I'm a former Marine and I fear for my country.

—well since democracy is the lesser evil compared to communism,—

Not necessarily. The early church was an example of communism*. But it was “voluntary”. That is a huge difference.

Capitalism is great as long as the culture has Christian values. Take that away (which is happening as we type), and it is evil indeed. The base desires of the natural man come out in spades, and it is not pretty.

*Acts 2:44-46

What exactly did your friend tell you? (Note: I do know that the Marine Corps has been reaching out to the gay community recently, which turns my stomach and makes my blood boil!

Pre, mid, or post trib rapture, I fear we will have to endure dark days.

Reminds me of that angry mob outside Lot’s house, demanding to “know” his guests.

This sums up my position pretty accurately:

What?! What do the UNbiblical teachings of Harold Camping have to do with anything in this column?

Some of th same things I saw. Communal showers where young Marines (up to 3-4) cram into one stall and commence bathing each other. Squad shower parties at some of the FOB’s, a known instance of a female SeaBee servicing a truckload of fellow SeaBee’s caught on surveillance video. Stuff like that.

Actually, no the first Church was not communist in the least.

Communism is materialistic in its presuppositions. The first Church was Theistic in its presuppositions.

There is an absolute gulf separating them. It is a mistake to confuse the Christian virtues of generosity and sharing - an expression of Charity - , with Communist non-private ownership of the means of production.

Sharing is not communistic. Sharing is a Godly virtue. Communism is Godless. But we all bear the likeness of God in some measure, and that by necessity.

I'm not trying to start an argument, sorry if this post sounds abrupt. But it is a very important distinction.

[hfr]

And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
(Revelation 19:11-16)

—Communism is materialistic in its presuppositions. The first Church was Theistic in its presuppositions.—

I’m being more broad than that. I use this definition:
Communist - “practicer of communal living: a participant in communal living”

Communism - a theory advocating elimination of private property

Sort of like this:

"The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men." (Revelation 18:12-13)

These things are called in the Revelation, "... the fruits that thy soul lusted after ... and all things which were dainty and goodly ... "(Revelation 18:14)

Our modern world especially traffics in the "souls of men".

It’s sad what the left has done to our military. I am afraid that it will only gets worse.
