WOW! Glenn Beck: Nobody Can Understand the Moses-Like Burden Ted Cruz Carries
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 4/12/16 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 04/13/2016 12:26:20 PM PDT by tatown

Radio host Glenn Beck told his audience last month that Ted Cruz was “anointed for this time.”

Beck also brought a fasting child on stage in Utah and declared, “This is the priesthood rising.”

On his television program last week, Beck told his studio audience that he sent an encouraging note to Ted Cruz a couple weeks back because nobody knows what it is like to carry the Moses-like burden that Cruz bears. Transcript via RWW:

“Imagine being in a position to where you believe it, you believe the country is at the end, you believe that God is telling you, ‘Step up to the plate.’ You believe that you, just like Moses, may be slow in speech and not the perfect guy, but you know if you get in there, you can actually do something and you’ve tried to stay loyal. Do you know what that life is like for two years of tearing yourself apart, of ‘please Lord, just tell me, just tell me, just tell me, I’ll do it, just tell me.’ And the burden of I blew it? Oh my gosh, I don’t want to be them.”

Wow!

LOL!! Then again, anytime I can recoomend Dr. Wayne Grudem, I welcome the opportunity. For any following this thread, Dr. Grudem has some excellent videos on YouTube. Just do a search on Wayne Grudem. For those who don’t know, he is on the Editor’s Board for the ESV Bible; an easy to read literal translation which I also highly recommend.

I think Cruz is fake. The Corker Bill did it for me.

I do not believe Cruz was for it. I think he voted for it because of a misguided strategy to delay Obama in making a deal, or so he says anyways.

Tactical blunder, not advocacy.

This Chicago thing really did it for me.

If you are referring to blaming the violence on Trump, I saw that as just political opportunism and possibly another tactical blunder.

Regardless of all that, I don’t think TC can beat Hillary, who is probably going to be the nominee, miracles not withstanding (emails).

If Ted Cruz cannot beat that washed up old hateful hag Hillary, with her mountains of skeletons and embarrassments in the closet, then we might as well just start burning everything down now.

Frankly, and I’ve said this before, I’ll be surprised if there is a 2016 election. I’ll be surprised if something big (unknown) doesn’t happen - especially between July, 2016 and January, 2017.

I uneasily contemplate that thought as well.

I’m not setting dates. I’d be more than happy to be completely-wrong.

Me too.

Each day, it seems, brings new surprises and mostly not good.

Yup.

I invite people to look at this video in light of the ESV, so I’m glad you brought that up. I like the way the ESV redid the phrase “peace and safety” into “peace and security”. It illustrates, accurately, the catch phrase the world politicians have and are still pushing. You’ll hear this phrase pop-up all over the place. FWIW


A Jewish state living side by side with a Palestinian state, in “peace and security” - now just need a political leader to confirm such a deal for about, oh, 7 lunar years, or 2,520 days.

Just imagine if world “leaders” spoke about “peace and security”:

A Jewish state living side by side with a Palestinian state, in “peace and security”

World “leaders” speak about “peace and security”:

1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 English Standard Version (ESV) - The Day of the Lord

5 Now concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need to have anything written to you. 2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “There is -—peace and security-—,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

Which reality will, I fear, before too long.

Just take steps to insure that you and yours are as safe as possible when that happens.

Doing my best (well, most of the time) - the economy has been a total disaster for me since pretty much 2008. I picked up, partially, in 2009 but mostly it was way, way short.

While Beck may enjoy being on his knees in front of Lyin’ Ted, none of the rest of use should have to do the same. Beck needs to wipe his chin and go home.

Daniel’s interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream is becoming more clear every day. The Iron part of the fourth kingdom (Roman Empire) split into two legs (Catholic and Orthodox). Then the desert clay (Islam) mixed in and is now invading the feet and toes. The stone cut from the mountain without hands it coming. Look up, your redemption draws neigh!

Daniel 2:40 “And the fourth kingdom shall be as strong as iron, inasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and shatters everything; and like iron that crushes, that kingdom will break in pieces and crush all the others.
41 “Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay.
42 “And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile.
43 “As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.
44 “And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.
45 “Inasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold—the great God has made known to the king what will come to pass after this. The dream is certain, and its interpretation is sure.”

I listen to the “The Word of Promise”, the NKJV Bible audio book when I sleep, and tonight when I awoke in the middle of the night, I was listening to the Book of Daniel at the part where Daniel’s associates conspired against him because they don’t like successful people.
They sucker King Darius, the Mede, into having to put Daniel in the Lions Den, although this was probably another one of YHWH’s little jokes on the wicked, so we shouldn’t be too hard on King Darius. Anyway, after Daniel spends the night with the kitties, this happens, and I thought it would be instructive of the situation here in the World today.

Daniel 6

24 And the king gave the command, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions—them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den.
25 Then King Darius wrote:
To all peoples, nations, and languages that dwell in all the earth:
Peace be multiplied to you.
26 I make a decree that in every dominion of my kingdom men must tremble and fear before the God of Daniel.
For He is the living God,
And steadfast forever;
His kingdom is the one which shall not be destroyed,
And His dominion shall endure to the end.
27 He delivers and rescues,
And He works signs and wonders
In heaven and on earth,
Who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

Actually, I think Trump will win, but the prospect of a Trump Presidency will cause the Russians and the Iranians to preemptively attack the US as part of their attack on Israel.

In Ezekiel 38, two distinct attacks are described. Biblical scholars have always taken them both to be about Israel, but only the second description specifically mentions Israel. The first is more general, and is hard to fit with the walled cities of current Israel. But it fits the United States pretty well.
10 “Thus says the Lord GOD: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind,
and you will make an evil plan:
11 “You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages;
I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’—
12 “to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited,
and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.
13 “Sheba, Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish, and all their young lions will say to you,
‘Have you come to take plunder? Have you gathered your army to take booty,
to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’ “

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (pp. 845-846). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

That pretty much describes a pre-Trump America. Particularly the part, “against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.”

Then YHWH, through Ezekiel, continues:

14 “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD:
“On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?
15 “Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you,
all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.
16 “You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land.
It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me,
when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes.”
17 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “Are you he of whom I have spoken in former days by My servants the prophets of Israel,
who prophesied for years in those days that I would bring you against them?
18 “And it will come to pass at the same time, when Gog comes against the land of Israel,” says the Lord GOD,
“that My fury will show in My face.
19 “For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath I have spoken:
‘Surely in that day there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel,
20 ‘so that the fish of the sea, the birds of the heavens, the beasts of the field,
all creeping things that creep on the earth, and all men who are on the face of the earth
shall shake at My presence. The mountains shall be thrown down, the steep places shall fall,
and every wall shall fall to the ground.’
21 “I will call for a sword against Gog throughout all My mountains,” says the Lord GOD.
“Every man’s sword will be against his brother.
22 “And I will bring him to judgment with pestilence and bloodshed;
I will rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, flooding rain,
great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
23 “Thus I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations.
Then they shall know that I am the LORD.” ‘

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 846). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

So, that is why I say to everyone: “Repent! The Kingdom of God is at hand!”

Romans 10
8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”
(that is, the word of faith which we preach):
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (pp. 1100-1101). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Psalm 83
1 Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God!
2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 576). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Revelation Chapter 12:
1 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.
2 Then being with child, she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth.

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1193). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Previous Bible commentators have taken this as a symbolic vision about Israel (Mary) giving birth to Jesus, and marking the start of the 3 1/2 year Great Tribulation.
However, since “knowledge had increased”, we can use star charting programs such as Stellarium to see that this could be a literal “great sign” in heaven.

The constellation “Virgo”, the Virgin, has always been identified with Mary the Mother of Jesus. The nine stars of Leo, the Lion (of Judah), form a “garland” above her head.
Jupiter has always been identified as the “King” star. It is striped (by His stripes we are healed) and has a large, red spot (they pierced His side).

Here is the sequence of events regarding the Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Virgo, Leo, Mercury, Mars and Venus

Mon, 21 November 2016 = 20th of Cheshvan, 5777
Jupiter enters Virgo crossing line from Spica to Porrima

Sat, 28 January 2017 = 1st of Sh’vat, 5777
Jupiter retrograde motion begins inside Virgo. “Gestation” begins??

Sat, 10 June 2017 = 16th of Sivan, 5777
Jupiter prograde motion resumes inside Virgo

Thu, 17 August 2017 = 25th of Av, 5777
Total Solar eclipse across America (from Portland to Charleston)

Sun, 10 September 2017 = 19th of Elul, 5777
Jupiter crosses Heze — Spica line. Virgin gives birth? Conjunction Regulus and Mercury

Wed, 20 September 2017 = 29th of Elul, 5777
New Moon, Venus — Regulus conjunction

Sun, 24 September 2017 = 4th of Tishrei, 5778
Sun at Virgo’s shoulders (clothed), the Moon is at her feet, Mercury, Mars, Venus are added to Leo’s nine stars as Virgo’s 12-star ‘garland’

The great sign in the heaven is complete. This formation has not happened in the past 6000 years and won’t happen again for at least another 2000 years.

Luke 21
25 “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring;
26 “men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 “Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 “Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1023). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

See the image at: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/_1y_hLqVXf4/maxresdefault.jpg

Graphic says 23 September 2017, as it depends on where you say Virgo’s feet are. Besides, no one knows the day or the hour.

I don’t know for sure if Daniel’s 70th week has started. Sir Issac Newton’s calculation, which required Israel to be back in the land with control of Jerusalem (June 1967) worked out to September 2015. We don’t know if the Anti-Christ confirmed a seven year treaty back then, but it is possible. The colors of the Four Horsemen are White, Red, Black, and, while it is translated as “Pale”, the Greek can be translated as “Green”. These are the colors of the Islamic Nations that are going up against Israel.

The Revelation 12:1-2 Great Sign in the Heavens if September 23-24, 2017, so that would be two years into the Seventieth Week. The Revelation 12:3-4 sign is no where to be seen. However, there are reports of perturbations in the Cassini spacecraft orbit around Saturn, so the “great, fiery red dragon, may be out there as a brown dwarf, which would explain why the Vatican is operating an infrared telescope, called Project Lucifer, here in Arizona.

While there are folks who think that the “called out ones”, usually called the Church, will escape the entire Seventh Week, as I read it we are only offered escape from the final 3 1/2 years if we are counted as worthy, or just before the Anit-Christ is finally revealed, which ever comes first.

So we could very well be in the first half of the Tribulation, or Time of Jacobs Trouble. The thing with Bible Prophecy is that you only really know, for sure, after the event has happened.

So read your Bible and Pray! Do what the Holy Spirit leads you to do in this world, but don’t be too attached to it! Maranatha!

- - - - - - -

Revelation 12
3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born.

I am going to say the absolute Objective truth here:

Beck is best when explaining the History of the Progressive movement and exposing the shenanigans of modern day progressives like Soros.

Beck is worst when he goes into love and Jesus preaching mode. He think love can save us, which he may have been right 50-30 years ago. It is too late now, we need more righteous anger and wrath these days, things are just so far gone.

I wish Beck would just stick with the History Lessons and the Exposing of Progressives instead of going on his crusades like he is the re-incarnation of Billy Graham.

I think everyone here on FreeRepublic can agree with this.

All the smaller government, better defense, more freedom things that Ted Cruz and Glen Beck


Glenn Beck strongly supported the Supreme Court imposing gay marriage on the entire country and call anybody that opposed it a fascist

Glenn Beck strongly supported Harry Reid / BLM landgrab to try and drive Bundy of his ranch

that’s small government conservatism????

let me ask a question ...are you for smaller government or are you for the Constitution?..... because the Constitution actually expanded government power from the Articles of Confederation

[ It is looking quite possibly that nobody will. Then it goes into a contested convention, and thereby it greatly increases the possibility of Cruz getting the nomination. ]

Actually I think it would be better if someone like Bobby Jindal was picked at convention, I would take him over Cruz and Ka-sick at this point.

I do like Trump and have been back and forth on him, but my spidey senses kinda don’t yet trust him to do what he says he will do once he gets in, i see him doing “deals” with congress and since congress is still a nest of RINOs I don’t like the idea of making deals with them.

I would like to be wrong and I will walk the walk of shame here on FR a year after he is sworn in as POTUS should he keep at least his border fence and illegal immigrant promise.

Did someone say WHORE??


"Both Catholics and Protestants are nothing less than the 'whore of Babylon' whom the Lord denounces by the mouth of John the Revelator as having corrupted all the earth by their fornications and wickedness.
