This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. ( 2 Timothy 3:1-5)
I believe that at all times God’s Wisdom is crying out in the streets to every generation, both through Scripture, as well as through ordained witnesses of God’s truth. Every day and night, knowledge pours forth, for the Most High would rescue men, from their own folly and from His Holy wrath.
But humanity will not listen to scripture, for the most part, neither will they pay heed to those witnesses God has sent to them. Therefore Wisdom also cries out through current events as well. God is not willing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance, so he speaks to us in our times through the things which occur in public life.
But like the handwriting on the wall, who knows the interpretation of the strange writings? Only the righteous and faithful, those who have ears to hear.
I believe there is a message in the current vicious controversy swirling around the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh. I consider the two sides in this controversy to be representative of two kinds of American citizens.
Kavanaugh seems to be a throwback to the old Judeo Christian American ideal. He is a family man, someone who has worked hard to attain high standing in Law, one who holds to an “originalist” interpretation of the Constitution, a “man of the book”. By every appearance he is a loving Husband and Father, and one who has been noted as being respectful of women and men.
Kavanaugh Was a Virgin In High School and College
I do not know this man personally, I am talking about appearances, and general testimony by those who do know him, and by all accounts , humanly speaking, He is a good and decent man.
Kavanaugh’s story seems to typify our highest ideals as a culture back when we held a Judeo Christian consensus; hard work, delayed gratification, reason and logic ( he is an originalist), objectivity, equity, decency and the Christian notion of respect for women.
The America He came of age in, was in the spasms of a cultural revolution. The yearbooks of the high schools that he and his accuser attended celebrated “student life” as a Bacchanalian existence, full of sexual immorality, drunkenness, and excess.
From the 1960’s all the way through the 1980’s, Chastity was ridiculed, and even despised, drunkenness loosened inhibitions, and there is no doubt that people were victimized and taken advantage of since “strong drink is a mocker and wine is a brawler”.
They said “Everybody is doing it” but not everybody was doing it! There were and are people who keep their integrity in such times. Evidently Kavanaugh did, and he made something substantive and beautiful of his life.
What I believe Wisdom is saying to all of us is that it is the fact that He is good and what he represents is good, that the left hates with a fierce passion. “….THEY WILL BE HATERS OF THOSE WHO ARE GOOD…”.
He is not only what the left is cultivating people to hate, but to envy as well. He is “privileged” according to the dictates of the modern “egalitarianism”, he is of European ancestry, He is Male and straight, he has worked hard and attained without Government assistance, and therefore is at the bottom of the so called “intersectional” divide.
It also looks like he turned down the debachery that swirled around him in high school and college. I guess you could call that ‘privilege’.
It is as though a well dressed man or woman saw a fetid swamp, stinking and bubbling with putrid sludge, and they found a way to go over it, without being spattered. Clothes remain neat and tidy and decent. Whew!
But now 35 years later, a long, grimy, arm emerges from the swamp dripping with fecal matter, and is attempting to drag Kavanaugh into the Swamp, and to baptize him, ( and all he represents ) in the muck.
Those who in the 1980’s scoffed at the notion of virginity until marriage would now spatter him (and all men) with the muck of their own depravity. “They all do it!” .Part of this putrid “Me too” movement is an attempt to slime all normal and decent men, another way of saying “everybody does it we all know that”, and to cynically deny that anyone can ever be decent.
Kavanaugh is pro-life. He believes life is sacred and it seems that He could be used by the LORD to finally remove the reproach of the abominable Roe vs Wade decision which foisted abortion on a Judeo Christian nation which never would have voted for it. The Left is absolutely religiously devoted to Abortion, it is sacramental to them, they are neo-Molochians!
Those seeking to slime Kavanaugh represent the other soul of America. They are the anti-God, Anti-Life revolution, which seeks to destroy everything of the old Judeo Christian order and culture. They hate the Good. They Love death, because they hate God. They also hate beauty, and order . They can hardly contain their contempt for Kavanaugh and all of those he represents.
Kavanaugh brought his family into the Senate gallery; his lovely wife and two daughters and his parents, but the proceedings were so upsetting to them, they had to be removed. An organized calvacade of radical Muslims, Lesbian activists, Feminists ann other horrible misfits shrieked and flailed to desecrate the decorum of the United States Senate, supposedly the “world’s Greatest Deliberative body”. So much for dignity.
This charade is so obvious it is embarrassing. Kavanaugh had already went through several severe FBI vettings and passed without any trouble. The Senate had already virtually unanimously approved of Him for a lower court decision.
But the Left is ruthless and unprincipled in their sheer will to power. They are willing to trash a decent man in front of his own family, (As they did Clarence Thomas and Robert Bork before them), in order to protect their most sacred religious rite, abortion on demand. This is a spiritual spectacle in a spiritual war, they will stop at nothing to achieve their power.
The nation means nothing to them, neither does the constitution or any law, nor do good men. Because their ideas are so putrid, the left has had to resort to successfully lobbying for millions os third world immigrants to flow into our formerly civilized society, to cancel out the votes of responsible taxpayers and to keep themselves in power.
They are haters of the good…
They actually hate them as Cain hated Abel, because “…Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous…”.
For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. ( I John 3:11-13)
Harlots are being brought forth out of the ranks of the left, to falsely accuse this decent man, in spite of his stirling public record, in a desperate bid to keep the curse of Roe s Wade active and to continue to slaughter babies in America. This is a portent of the doing judgment.
Lord God, please continue to lift up the family of this man. Keep him, his wife and their children protected from the various ways of evil that is being forced upon them. We who need strength, ask for ourselves, to be able to reject the earthly rage we feel when dealing with this issue. In the name of Jesus we ask this. Amen.
"Fear not the windy tempests wild,
Thy bark they shall not wreck;
Lie down and sleep, O helpless child!.
Thy Father's on the deck." --"The Biblical Treasury", 1873.
Swamp creatures are earthly, sensual, and devilish.
Thanks, Pastor. I needed to read that.
Are you there yet?
bkmk
Anyone who thinks that Satan isn’t walking the earth posing as a Democrat isn’t paying attention.
Though I’m grateful I’m not where I was, I’m not where I should be, yet. :)
I’m not grateful, though, I was where we were not when we were not where we are when we were there though. I'm not sure we were there where we are when we are where we are grateful we are not when we are, were we? I’m not where I was where we were not grateful were we are, we was.
I enjoyed reading that out loud!
But the Left is ruthless and unprincipled in their sheer will to power. They are willing to trash a decent man in front of his own family, (As they did Clarence Thomas and Robert Bork before them), in order to protect their most sacred religious rite, abortion on demand.
For some reason, this particular nomination has caused the entire political/media/cultural establishment (it's all the same) to freak out exceedingly.
This post yesterday isn't a new idea, but with the frenzy over Judge Kavanaugh, it served to generate a few questions:
What was 0bama/Hillary’s ‘take’ from aborted babies?
Trump administration terminates contract with fetal tissue firm after opposition from anti-abor..
The 'take'...
How much and for how long, and in how many ways has the Establishment been profiting off the 'fruit' of Roe v. Wade? And not just within the United States, but within the entire world order? How dependent upon this abomination is the world Establishment? Because truly, for years we've all observed the reaction to any and all perceived threats to this ruling. One would think that cutting off Roe v. Wade is the same as cutting off its supporters' life line. Not only that, but the decision is championed and justified as a constitutional "right to privacy", so to overturn Roe is to overturn a right to privacy.
Fear of losing privacy, and fear of losing life itself. It's as if the system is fully dependent upon Roe v. Wade for its continued existence. What are they all hiding that causes and is causing the extreme reactive meltdown? No lie, no character assassination is too great in order to keep this ruling propped up. There's way more going on here than demons and their lackeys 'merely' taking delight in killing innocents, or of the retention of individual political power..
Which brings me to the verses about caring or not caring for others, Matthew 25. As done (or not done) to the least of people, same as is done (or not done) to the Messiah. How others bodies are treated or mistreated, same as if doing that to the Messiah.
Picking back up with the topics in your excellent post:
1 Corinthians 3
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.1 Corinthians 6
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.2 Corinthians 6
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Consider the above in light of the timing of this nomination. Roe became law on Jan 22, 1973. If not for the open demonic attack on this judge, I might have overlooked the connection.
The Establishment of the Temple [that was destroyed] was 46 years in the making. Jesus called it a temple of merchandise (John 2:16).
The temple of merchandise:
John 2
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
Next January marks 46 years of established ("settled") law of murdering innocents privately, justified also to mitigate the effect of rape, even late-term procedures being marketed as necessary for saving the life of the mother, when the opposite is happening.
What was 0bama/Hillary’s ‘take’ from aborted babies?
How entrenched has this ruling become after 46 years? Could any normal person even imagine the abject evil perpetrated for the love of money and power? How much profit potential has been conceived in privacy (darkness) over the course of the past 46 years? Judging by the reaction to this judge at this time, it sure looks to me like Roe v. Wade is the established world power and trade's umbilical cord.
It is obvious on the surface that the powers-that-be are deathly afraid of becoming the very thing it has defined for years: nothing but an inconvenient tissue mass, a product of conception whose disposal is of no consequence, even beneficial.
The Establishment threatens the life of the mother (America). America can't afford it. Who would force a poor mother to go into worse proverty, or to be saddled with an unwanted baby? Who would force a woman who has been raped to give birth to the resulting baby? It has to go. I'm only using all the common rationals. Funny thing about the people who cry about overpopulation, or who support genocidal ideologies and regimes... they never consider themselves to be the disposable demographic.
President Trump has already saved the life of the mother by cancelling Hillary's due date, but for some reason the pro-choice supporters are angry. America simply used her constitutional right to choose, in the privacy of the voting booth. You'd think the crowds of protesting demons are the radical pro-life extremists we keep hearing about.
Interesting multiple word plays re the identifying name of roe verses wade.
Thanks Ezekiel, you have my head spinning, the magnitude of evil behind all of this is mind blowing. Consider also that the horrors of 70 ad were visited upon Israel roughly forty years after the advent of the Messiah. It is as though the LORD gave the next generation an opportunity to redress the sins of the previous generation...read and weep everybody!
This is about more than only abortion, it is to keep power of shadow govt...deep state...whatever you want to call it, with it’s anti-God war for global control. Obama and his evil lords still hold vast power.
The fight between President Trump under God and the dark powers in govt (not just US govt) is being waged not just within the halls of earthly power but in spiritual strongholds including strongholds of demonic power in govt, for all to see publicly.
Consider how many ostensibly on the side of right and life, might also be fully dependent upon the continuation of this abomination.
How many derive their livelihoods from operating organizations set up to fight the battle? No battle, no income. Same as with the military-industrial complex.
Bad actors cloaked in good. Easy for them to hide behind righteous endeavors. Nobody could dare suspect or question. But when all is revealed, we shall see who is who.
On a lesser level of influence corruption, consider the pundits who rail against the Establishment, writing books, making the talk show rounds explaining why gun control is bad, why big government is dangerous, why the welfare state degrades a man's self-worth. The statements are all true but come on, those guys have been making the same arguments for decades. I came to the same conclusions as a teenager. Nobody really seems interested in going beyond to actually doing anything about it.
Over and over. Broken record. It's their livelihoods. Like the pols, how many end up meeting with their ‘enemies’ at the same cocktail parties at the end of the day?
No battle, no cocktail parties, no exotic vacations. Gotta wonder what the real motivations are for this dog and pony show.
President Trump is a man who came along expecting an actual return on investment, voted into office by citizens who desire the same. Yeah, oh geez now what. The entire world system of smoke and mirrors is out gunning for him.
More irony is that he has more money than the corrupt pols could ever hope to attain from selling their [illusion of] power and influence. And he has real power, unlike those who murder their rivals to get ahead. He is knowledgeable of their degenerate mindset and all tricks of the trade.
Is it really any different than of Moses being sent down into Egypt, to be raised in the palace? Who else qualified to overturn the established order, to rip it out from the roots.
Acts 7
21 And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
22 And Moses was learned in **all the wisdom of the Egyptians**, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
“Trump.” God's mastery of irony and retribution wrapped up in one word, one man. Shocking what is going unnoticed in real time.
It's also a grace period, a red flag warning to religious establishments and their established doctrines, the sanctity of which nobody is allowed to question. Many words of wisdom are bought and sold, yet no one becomes any wiser. Quite the opposite.
It's why the simple message to become kinder is totally lost in the religious swamp, as people beat each other over the head in heated doctrinal exchanges. To become kinder is even a delightful pun on becoming like children [in order to enter the Kingdom].
Kinder - those who attend kindergarten.
It's even called a garden. Apologetics is big business full of the wisdom of the wise, so a kindergarten is the last place people would go to seek access to the Kingdom.
There's always someone to come along and say don't be ridiculous, who ever heard of the word 'kindergarten' in 1st century Judaea. Well who cares, we are reading these words *now*, when they make sense in our own language for this time. Like God wouldn't know how to work a pun while transcending languages and ages, to say what He's been saying all along anyway.
Matthew 11:18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil. 19 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified of her children.
Deep swamp = abyss
