Marxist globalism is an evil religion.
Perhaps the most startling quality of world leaders today is that they do not believe in much beyond their own wants and needs. Many will feign a belief in God for the sake of appearances, but true believers are hard to find. In the West, where Christianity has shaped society for two thousand years, it is more common to find governments punishing Christians for their faith than to see biblical doctrine defended.
Finnish Member of Parliament Päivi Räsänen, a rare Christian politician in our overwhelmingly secular times, has spent the last several years defending herself against criminal “hate speech” charges for quoting the Bible. Prosecutors claim that her religious convictions concerning marriage and morality are “insulting” and “degrading” and violate “sexual rights.” Furthermore, her accusers insist that the State “can limit freedom of expression in the outward expression of religion.”
Such despotic statements amount to nothing less than full-throated attacks against religious freedom. Faithful Christians are not Christian for merely an hour or two during church service each week. They do not slip in and out of their Christian identity as a worker might put on overalls and gloves. Believers walk the walk in everything they do. For Finnish authorities to demand that Räsänen hide her faith is to demand that she no longer be a practicing Christian. Only a government that believes in nothing beyond its own power would command a citizen to obey the State by disobeying God.
Finland is far from the only Western nation putting God on trial. During the “Reign of COVID Terror,” New Zealand, Australia, Canada, the United States, and most of Europe waged a perverse kind of spiritual war against churches and congregations. Priests, pastors, and rabbis were threatened with criminal charges for opening their doors...

I think the COVID lockdowns were a wakeup call.
.
God must show him(her)self in order for people to believe in God. At least, that’s what most people believe.
But, God is visible in everything we see or touch or hear or taste or smell or think about. It just takes a mind to notice that, nothing would be possible without a creator, and even the whole of the universe would not exist.
Why do we have a brain? Everything about us and all living things is about interactions, and that requires decisions that came from a creator. God made and continues to make infinite number of decisions that make us and the world and universe, as we are and will be.
Existence is not about chaotic circumstances that just happned to make us and the universe what we are today. Nothing would exist withou a creator, not even the simplest of organism or the simplest of objects; not even the atom would exist, and not even the components of atoms. All that had to come from somewhere and the intelligent that went itno making things, is not ‘just there’. Everything came from somewhere and everything has a purpose, and God is the creator of everything, and He/She/It/Whatever, is not done yet.
You want to see a Christian state leader who is stepping up in defense of traditional Christian values? Let me introduce you to Vladimir Putin. Over the past three years the Russians have passed law after law outlawing all of the various perverted, trans, woke, child exploitive Western initiatives. Russia is a diplomatic bulwark against globohomoism. Putin is the modern Charles Martel for all the world’s traditional religions as they struggle against globohomoist hegemony.
Thanks
“I think the COVID lockdowns were a wakeup call.“
They were. So was the stolen election. So was the permanent bail-less jailing of the J6 people. So was the kangaroo court assembled to get Trump.
(I think the COVID lockdowns were a wakeup call.)
Oh yes; they were indeed (more information later tonight)
COVID-19(84) was an excellent dry run for the coming Antichrist Mark of the Beast.
And the tyranny was WORLDWIDE. 🌎🌏🌍
These things, including Israel and Iran (Turkey too)
are harbingers of things to come.

“”God must show himself in order for people to believe in God. At least, that’s what most people believe.””
If the Lord God did, it would terrify the world! But then the day after, those in power would suddenly say...’YOU PEOPLE DID NOT SEE WHAT YOU JUST SAW! IS THAT CLEAR!”
It would be blamed on mass hysteria, bad food, drugs, hallucinations or “other gods”.
And the people would say...”SIR, YES SIR!”
He showed himself to those Israelis fleeing Egypt and terrified them so much they begged Moses to be an intermediary between them and God.
Pretty much.
Almighty God is so Perfect and Holy that we cannot behold His face (in our human state) without dying due to our sin.
Exodus 33:20-23
21st Century King James Version
20 And He said, “Thou canst not see My face, for there shall no man see Me and live.”
21 And the Lord said, “Behold, there is a place by Me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock.
22 And it shall come to pass, while My glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with My hand while I pass by;
23 and I will take away Mine hand, and thou shalt see My back parts, but My face shall not be seen.”

Something similar happened when the Apostle John met Jesus Christ in Heaven:
Revelation 1:17
21st Century King James Version
17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. And He laid His right hand upon me, saying unto me, “Fear not; I am the First and the Last.

Most definitely.
A huge number of word leaders are childless atheists. They only worship power.
Now you’ve done it. They started passing those laws around 2011. Obama took it very personally.
More awareness of history is needed. Are westerners really worse now in God’s eyes than when they were paying lip service to him but tolerating slavery, feudalism, disastrous wars, pogroms, and a murderous Catholic “church”?
Interesting take. I think you are right on target. If Jesus showed up today and worked miracles and it was seen by all, conspiracy theories would explode, people would mock, even religious leaders would treat it with disdain.
I think you have it exactly right about the number of people that would still refuse to believe.
