Christians are a persecuted minority in Melbourne, Australia, ruled over by governments headed by two Socialist Left politicians Anthony Albanese, federally, and Premier Daniel Michael Andrews at state level.
May God Bless the anonymous woman in this post who proudly carries her Christian faith into the heart of an otherwise much less devout Melbourne freedom movement.
Please pray for her.
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.
“As he died to make men holy let us die to make men free...’’
My soul is sore over what is happening in Oz.
If the great winepress of the wrath of God seems familiar to you, that is because this vivid picture of judgment was the inspiration for the popular American patriotic song The Battle Hymn of the Republic.
The "Battle Hymn of the Republic" song was published by the slavery abolitionist writer Julia Ward Howe in February 1862.
Using references to biblical passages such Revelation 14:19, this song links the judgment of the wicked at the end of the age with the American Civil War.
"Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord, He is trampling out the vineyard where the grapes of wrath are stored, He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword, His truth is marching on!
The grapes of wrath mean the Unsaved. Judgment is the theme of this second-coming hymn. Jesus Christ, as the judge of the earth, will crush and trample the unsaved.
Thank you, Buffalo Bob, for your thoughtful response.
THANKS FOR THE SYMPATHIES.
AND IF YOU CAN PASS THE WORD TO RON DESANTIS AND MR TRUMP
THEY CARE
