“In the sickening scene…
Thru the Bible, Volume 13, The History of Israel, 1 and 2 Kings | 1991 | J. Vernon McGee

“In the sickening scene in every government today we see a group of men clamoring for positions. They want to be elected to an office. All of them are telling us how great they are and what marvelous abilities they have. They assure us that they are able to solve the problems. By now, friend, some of us have come to the conclusion that these boys are just kidding us. They don’t have the solution and they don’t have the wisdom. If only some men would come on the scene and say, “I don’t have the wisdom; I recognize my inadequacies. But I am going to depend on God to lead and guide me.” Something like that would be so startling it would probably rock the world.” J. Vernon McGee

Time for dictatorial rule, not representative democracy BECAUSE of the election cheating. We can not count on the vote any more. The leftists are forcing it that way.

Dictatorial rule is what we have right now. Don’t you want it undone?

No, what we need to do is all turn to the Lord and Jesus who is our true savior.

Commentators from Dan Bongino to Joe Rogan are all pretty much saying it...our situation cannot be attributed to incompetence. Sheer blind stupidity sometimes gets things right. The destruction we see is deliberate.

Even if Republicans gain the House and Senate it is all just a matter of time. Even if we have a Republican House, Senate and White House I don’t think it can save us.

Ross Perot warned us about this in 1992. It’s too late, it’s gone too far. (Sorry Abe, we will try, if it doesn’t work, we tried)

“John Vernon McGee (June 17, 1904 – December 1, 1988) was an American ordained Presbyterian minister, pastor, Bible teacher, theologian, and radio minister.”

Not unusual for a pastor of that era to refer to “men” and we still understand both sexes are included. J. Vernon McGee was an outstanding Bible pastor whose sermons are still broadcast on the radio today & saving souls.
