The Enemy is Not Stupid, but Evil

Have at it, folks. I anticipate flames from those who see things from a purely political perspective and not a religious one, but I hope that those who have eyes to see and ears to hear already know what I've described here.

I think I remember you but I'm not sure. Are you the one who used to end his posts with the little angel? It looked like this ^i^

[sauropod]

I generally agree with your post. Except that I am not convinced that W. is God's chosen person to cut the head off of the dragon.

The UN is a HUGE danger, on that we agree....

In Christ....

Are you the one who used to end his posts with the little angel? It looked like this ^i^

No, I used to end my posts with banners that said things such as: LIBERALISM IS THE GOSPEL OF THE ANTICHRIST and LIBERALS ARE THE NEW CANAANITES.

Wow! That is impressive. Nice to meet you Laz. I'm Calpernia, new at FreeRepublic.

[TheSpottedOwl]

No flames from me. Great post, and welcome back :)

Many times, I have seen FReepers call our enemies on the Left stupid.

I know what you mean.  The jingoism and bluster are  poor substitutes for attempting analysis. Luckily, there are enough FReepers capable of adult discourse that something worthwhile crops up eventually.

..for the sole reason that America was raised up by God to protect Israel.

Thousands of dead American soldiers might beg to differ on that point...if they could. That's an insulting presumption and you should be embarrassed.

Ditto everything you said. The political left could not succeed without a willing press. With the advent of Fox News, the Internet and popularity of Rush, etc., we can and will change the course of history. Sounds radical - but it's true.

I remember y-all welcome back - why come back as a newbie?

Nonsense. That would make God a respecter of persons. (Acts 10:34)

Israel has been accorded no more special concessions by God than anyone else.

And when Christ returns, the earth will be vaporized.

2 Pet 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Kinda hard to reconcile dispensational theology with that.

[bethelgrad]

I understand your point. However, the left really is stupid. Its just that a lot of really stupid people follow them. Still, we should not underestimate them.

[bethelgrad]

I am not in agreement with your dispensational theology. Honestly I don't know where I'm at theologically. I love Jesus and want to serve him. And I believe this country and what it stands for is worth fighting for. I almost stopped believing that from '92-00.

I understand your point. However, the left really is stupid. Its just that a lot of really stupid people follow them. Still, we should not underestimate them.

Most people on the left are "useful idiots". They are guided, however, by people who are not stupid but rather are clever and shrewd liars. When Schumer et al. push for more "gun control" it's not because they believe it will reduce crime; rather, it is because they need crime to keep the "little people" in check.

Hey, laz.

Here's one I think you might find very interesting. In His blood.

[Travis McGee]

This is my offering in the battle to come, this clarifying slogan:

Only UNamericans put the U.N. before America!

Let the liberal one-world 'rats decide once and for all: which side are you on? Is your loyalty to the U.N., or America?

[laz17]

I am not embarrassed by anything I have said, and it is YOU who should be embarrassed for not seeing the truth of my words. You are still seeing things from a material and political perspective, and you interpret my words as if they meant our soldiers job is to die for Israel instead of for the US. That is not what I have said. The truth my words speak is that in God's design, America's role among the family of nations is to be the protector of Israel to counterbalance other nations which have the role of opposing Israel. If America did not exist, Israel's enemies would have no opposition to their desire to destroy it. We were instrumental in God's plan of creating the modern state of Israel, and we have supported Israel and helped it since then. I'm sorry you cannot see this, but then, the truth is hard for many.

Nonsense. That would make God a respecter of persons. (Acts 10:34

Israel has been accorded no more special concessions by God than anyone else.

If you truly believe this, then you are blind. Perhaps you never read the part of the Bible in which God declares that He will curse all those who curse Israel and bless all those who bless it. If you have trouble believing that Israel is special to God, then you have only cursorily skimmed the Bible.

In the eyes of God, Israel is the center of the world. If that makes you feel slighted, then that is too bad. The battle between Christ and Satan boils down to, bottom line, which of them shall rule from Jerusalem.
