UNTIL THE REVOLUTION COMES ( Rev. Manning says we must have a revolution

Hon. James David Manning says we must have a revolution in order to get back this nation.

Something rings phony about this guy to me.

He says a lot of right things, but he seems like he may be pushing “hot buttons” just to get people riled up and bring attention to himself.

And he sees everything through a racial prism, ie “White people are gonna rise up and revolt, and I hope they let me join em”

I guess according to his worldview, whitey might not let him in, and the revolution is race based, not a non-race specific phenomenon.

Just a few things I noticed.

I think the Rev is the real deal . A lot of people’s buttons have got to be pushed in order to wake them up . How much success he is having with his black brothers and sisters I do not know , however I do know that he is trying his damndest to get them on board , and soon , which is why he talks to them the way he does . Calling a spade a spade if you will . Pulling no punches . I think you have him all wrong .

It's interesting that St. Paul predicted that there would be a rebellion just before the 'man of lawlessness' is revealed.

The Man of Lawlessness (Thessalonians Chapter 2)

2As to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we beg you, brothers and sisters,* 2not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as though from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is already here. 3Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first and the lawless one* is revealed, the one destined for destruction.* 4He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God.

It is NOT insurrection when a people decide that the government is governing without the consent of the governed. It is NOT insurrection when citizens rise up and remove an existing government which has governed with a despot’s hand. As the Declaration states: But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.

When our right and our duty becomes inevitable, only the despotic usurper would attempt to declare martial law to crush those who disagree with him.

Patrick Henry Paraphrased:
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace— but there is no peace. The war for people’s minds and allegiance is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms, the billy-clubs of Black Panthers, the release of Islamic terrorists in our midst, the intimidation of Jurists, the refusal to accept the results of the American Grand Jury! Our brethren are already in the field working hard to unite Conservatives and to mandate for the release of Mr Obama’s credentials! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery when we were promised hope and change? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, be it for hope, be it for change; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

Who is willing to die for Freedom? I will not go willingly to the guillotine.

It’s weird you mention this...i was sitting alone the other day and the phrase came into my head that “the man of lawlessness will be revealed” and I thought of Obama.

Of course, I am familiar with this passage. And BOY does it fit him!

Lawelessness: Appointing Czars, taking over banks, an auto company, no birth certificate, nationalizing healthcare, barging into classrooms, etc etc.

Declaring himself to be God...maybe he thinks of himself that way...Farrakhan called him the Messiah, that commentator called him God, he himself has claimed he will affect the climate and the sea levels.

Hmmmmmm......
