Why follow lawless dictates?

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, 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 left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Why follow lawless dictates?

Because they have a gun to our heads.

"Nice democracy you have there. Be a shame if something happened to it........"

But, most of us know what to do with bullies..

Lawless,

That word has been appearing more and more,

“Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12

I don’t recall another time, when so many commentators thought directly in these terms,

This day is drawing closer:

“Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming; . . “ 2 Thessalonians 2:8

The people are now so deceived to accept what their repeatedly presented as ‘normal’ in bread and circus television and movies. Everything we’re told to believe in comes from the corrupt news/media “their every thought was to do evil continually” even in their entertainment, there is no pretense, the mainstream media want to shape our underlying core beliefs into what this lawless thing tells us is the truth, calling evil good and good evil,

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

“He also gradually changed the government into tyranny, seeing no other way of turning men from the fear of God, but to bring them into a constant dependence upon his own power.” Referring to Nimrod, per Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, Book 1 Chapter 4:2
