Correction: MANY Protestants are deeply concerned with End-times prophecy. There are still a signficant number of us who are not wrapped up in eschatolaughable hysteria, particularly those of us who are not in the pre-trib, pre-mill camp.

At a time when the push for globalization is on a steep incline, and the popular speculative interpretations of Biblical prophecy include one-world government, it's no surprise that people's eschatological views increasingly color their commentary and even affect their short-term decision making. If I didn't think Christ were sitting on His Throne right now, I'd probably be worried too. Nevertheless, His Kingdom is advancing (and is no way tied to the rise or fall of the United States of America).

Amen!

While I believe the world is manipulated almost completely these days, and in ways we can't even imagine, I still believe God knows what He's doing and that creation is being redeemed as we speak.

Rather than look to Scripture as the early warning system for the deceit that currently is taking place, we need only go back a few decades to the John Birch Society and the patriot movement of the '90's to see that what they all warned about is exactly what is happening today.

God willing, dissent in this country will grow rather than be silenced as it is in Iran and China.

To that end, we should all pray our beloved celebrities stay healthy and off the front page.

Amen! Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence.

For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.– Colossians 1:15-20

Thank you for sharing your insights, dear sister in Christ!

Clicked on your about page and found this:

"“Two years ago, John Knox in a private conversation, asked my opinion respecting female government. I frankly answered that because it was a deviation from the primitive and established order of nature, it ought to be held as a judgment on man for his dereliction of his rights just like slavery — that nevertheless certain women had sometimes been so gifted that the singular blessing of God was conspicuous in them, and made it manifest that they had been raised up by the providence of God, either because he willed by such examples to condemn the supineness of men, or thus show more distinctly his own glory. I here instanced Huldah and Deborah.” (John Calvin in a letter to William Cecil, 1559)"

Paging Sarah Palin...
