Satan Weakens The Nations...Refugee crisis pt 4
09-15-15 | Bill Randles

Posted on 09/15/2015 11:35:14 AM PDT by pastorbillrandles

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? (Isaiah 14: 12-17)

Looking at the madness that is the Hijra, that is ‘the Immigration ‘ of refugees ,which is really an Islamic invasion of the soft underbelly of Europe, I can’t help but think of the words of the prophecy against the King of Babylon, in Isaiah 14. The King of Babylon was a real person, but the prophecy goes beyond addressing him, and address the intelligent spiritual entity inspiring him, Lucifer, the Satan, who is the Devil himself.

In Isaiah’s taunt prophecy spoken over Satan, one of the divine charges against Lucifer is that He was the one who “Weakened the nations”. Satan is the one who weakens the nations, to make them liable to destruction and even damnation. This implies that the nations of the world are in various states of health.

We learn in the scripture, that God established nations and boundaries of time and space, that men may seek the LORD.

God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;Neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:(Acts 17:24-27)

A person who is physically healthy is exposed to countless germs and pathologies daily, but as long as his immune system is functioning, he/she os naturally resistant to germs, viruses, or plagues. Because of the practice of various sexual perversions, AIDS destroys the immune system, and otherwise healthy people then often die of common colds or flu.

So also is it with nations. When a nation is healthy, it is resistant to any pathology that would otherwise destroy it.But should the immune system of that nation be compromised, opportunistic diseases and pathologies are there, ready to enter in and to destroy.

Satan has weakened the nations of the once healthy Judeo Christian west.

The very germ of life on any nation, is its religion,the “Cult” of the culture. Satan has de-natured the west, through a relentless attack on Christianity, by the elites in European society. Churches have both marginalized themselves or been marginalized. European elites no longer believe in God.

American elites are no different, emulating European atheistic chic! Our educators, entertainers, opinion shapers in press, literature and the media, have taken a long cultural march through our institutions stripping them of any of the former allegiance to or adherence to the God who once inspired our fathers. Atheism has sickened our societies.

All of the “Isms” of the last century are symptoms of this “sickness unto the death” of our western world. All of them are the cutting edged philosophies of the educated ruling elite which promised to replace the de-throned Judeo- Christian revelation.Fascism,Communism, Nazism, humanism, existentialism, multiculturalism were all going to explain the world in better terms and create a more compassionate, dynamic civil society than the one Christianity bequeathed to the west.

But they have proven empty, unsatisfying and even toxic to the soul. Instead of inspiring they have steadily hollowed out any concept of patriotism, love of country, gratitude for the sacrifices of our forbearers, or willingness to sacrifice in turn for future generations.

Our educational elites and our Media have furthered the affliction, rewriting our history to heap guilt upon the descendants of those who gave the world the greatest and most successful civilization ever seen. Multiculturalism, a veiled attack on Judeo Christianity has paralyzed the rulers, in the face of evil. They are unable to distinguish good or evil, the precious from the vile, even in the face of an all out assault as we are seeing in Hungary, Italy, Spain, France, and Germany.

With the destruction of faith in the west, there has been no real defense of Society against soul rotting pornography,the redefinition or abandonment of marriage (as ordained of God), nihilistic philosophy, the sanctity of human life,(Abortion) and a host of other of our formative institutions and values which once served as a bulwark against evil.

There is no doubt in my mind, that the relentless assault on every institution in western society, in the name of leftism, progressivism or collectivism, have come as a result of the Devil himself, “He that weakened the nations”.

It is only because of this that our leaders would even consider the manifestly hateful mobs, allowed to rampage through normally peaceful and beautiful European cities.

A nation which no longer has children, no longer believe in anything other than the self.

A nation which can no longer distinguish the reality of anything; between truth and error, male and female, innocence(Abortion) and Guilt(death penalty) is sick, and on the verge of a sickness unto death.

A healthy nation can recognize an external threat and would vigorously resist it. When Europe was Christian, she turned Moslems away and we are all better for it. America once knew an enemy when it saw one, and unapologetically destroyed it.

There was no unlimited Japanese immigration during the second world war.

In a healthy nation, the leaders are there to protect the citizens. No one n their right minds would have opened the gates upon their own people, knowing full well that the hostile rabble spewing out would rape and plunder the nation.

Islam is merely an opportunistic disease. It is a pathology that has made its own lands a living hell, and would now bid us to accept the same in ours. The West is in desperate need of deliverance and a turn back to God.

In another similar metaphor,Jesus called Israel a “House” which had been swept clean and empty of it’s evil Spirit (idols). He warned her though that the state of emptiness wouldn’t last, for the spiritual world, like the national world, abhors a vacuum.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.(Luke 11:24-26)

What we are seeing in Germany and western Europe, as well as the USA is the result of the weakening and emptying of the “Houses” of Judeo Christian civilization. The house is empty, swept and clean, and now worse evil spirits than the ones that inhabited it before, are pouring into the house at the bidding of our decadent and Nihilistic leaders, and the west now faces an existential crisis.

I believe this “immigration crisis” is a portent of the shift in prophetic timing, and could be the occasion for the last stage of the dominant western Roman empire, from Daniel’s vision. For centuries the west has been dominant, but in the end, jut before the coming of Jesus, the west is severely weakened.

And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay. And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.( Daniel 2:41-44)

I think turning the nations away from God is how Satan is weakening them. I also think Muslims are God's way of punishing nations.

"unless the Lord guards the city the watchman stays awake in vain at the gate". Our gate is open and we are unguarded.

Islam is so unique. There is no question that the Judeo Christian West has given quarter to the Sojourner, receiving millions of refugees and immigrants year after year. But in the case of ISlam, we have a “Religion” which is really a military/political doctrine of conquest. These people don’t come over here for shelter, for the most part, they come to undermine and conquer.

Yes.

What if instead of conquering Goliath, David provided him food, clothing and shelter enabling him to destroy the Israelites?

Islam is a war plan. You can't take it in or understand it with the typical Western mindset.

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6 "...in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily." Colossians 2:9

John 1:10 tells us that everything seen and unseen was created ex nihilo by the spoken Word of the Son of God, which means that Jesus Christ was active and present long before His incarnation, therefore eternally co-existent with the Father. Jesus Christ is therefore God just as the Father and Holy Spirit are God, thus the Word of the Old Testament's creation account is Jesus Christ of the New Testament. Jesus Christ is the Word. His Word is Truth even as He Himself is Truth, the same today as yesterday and for always. Thus Jesus Christ does not change and as He is the starting point for the reasoning of the faithful, then Christians must reject the neutrality principle and doubt, its' ugly twin, the long unchallenged principles in evolutionary modernism's longstanding war against the Word of God – the Book of Genesis in particular – in all its parts... historical, prophetical, geographical, linguistic, and doctrinal.

"Atheism has sickened our societies. All of the “Isms” of the last century are symptoms of this “sickness unto the death” of our western world. All of them are the cutting edged philosophies of the educated ruling elite." (Pastor Bill Randles)

At the heart of their "cutting edge philosophies" is the claim of scientific neutrality as a general operating assumption. Two applications of modernist thought evidence this: evolution (anti-creation account/relentless change/relativism), an inverted exegesis that deconstructs and reduces man in the spiritual image of the Trinity to evolved ape, and deconstructionism (destructive criticism/critical theory). Along with evolution, deconstructionism is a form of relativism or nihilism that for more than eighty years has been spilling into and contaminating our moral and culture sustaining institutions from seminaries and Biblical scholarship to academia, law, media, arts, and politics, thence our minds, individually and collectively. For instance, "Alabama will require students to learn about evolution, climate change" AP, September 13, 2015

In this light, evolution (relativism/nihilism) is an abomination of desolation that when injected into the Book of Beginnings desolates the entire Bible, not in reality, but in the minds of men.

The origin of the neutrality principle is the Garden of Eden. Its' father is the Evil One who tempted Eve to approach the question of eating from the forbidden tree in a neutral, unbiased fashion. He slyly suggested that she adopt a neutral position in order to decide who was right, God or the snake. Like modernists of our own age Eve doubted and therefore rejected God's Word as authoritative and conclusive. As a true neutralist she determined for herself which choice to take. (Gen. 3:4-6)

Without the Lord, nobody can truly understand what we are witnessing in the world right now. It's a sin problem and a spiritual problem. The devil has blinded the lost (John 12:40). Spiritual deception is running rampant. Things will get worse from here, short of a Ninevah-type repentance.

I think we are beginning to see the fulfillment of end of the Fourth Kingdom's feet and toes of iron and clay. The iron of the old Roman Empire and the clay from the desert of Islam.

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.”

Islam is not unique in any regard. It is unregenerate man’s natural state. The devil who heads Islam is the same devil who sits in the high places in the United States. Why do the nations rage and the people imagine vain things?

Satan is the one who weakens the nations, to make them liable to destruction and even damnation.



 

Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
