How is it a minority of mentally challenged, unarmed, weaklings are able to walk all over a nation of armed patriots?
Earlier today I saw the correspondence of an angry conservative who was tired of the negativity of other conservatives. He raged that all we do is continually point out the bad. He went on to accuse those who focus on the negative trends as cowards, treacherous, and treasonous...fat asses who sit on their couches and whine with no action. My first inclination was to ask, “Who are you calling treacherous?” “Real brave sitting behind your computer...and not to my face where you would certainly be challenged to back up your words.” “I may be fat, but what do you expect me to do beyond writing, voting, fighting for truth, and paying taxes?”

That was a heck of a thread! A real fun ride! Those who missed it, missed a a fun time. That poster must have gone off his meds.
Jim himself gave they guy a break and zotted the 150 plus replies thread.
You scare me...
Because I know you’re right.
Some great points in there.
“Matthew 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.”
I don’t even pretend to understand that...
“The fact is that whoever is actually in charge of our country will not allow Trump to get this done.”
Mirror time, citizens.
... then you should reread the Catechism, Part 1, Section 2, Chapter 2, Article 7, especially #675:
Before Christ's second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. The persecution that accompanies her pilgrimage on earth will unveil the "mystery of iniquity" in the form of a religious deception offering men an apparent solution to their problems at the price of apostasy from the truth. The supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of his Messiah come in the flesh.
and #677:
The Church will enter the glory of the kingdom only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection. The kingdom will be fulfilled, then, not by a historic triumph of the Church through a progressive ascendancy, but only by God's victory over the final unleashing of evil, which will cause his Bride to come down from heaven. God's triumph over the revolt of evil will take the form of the Last Judgment after the final cosmic upheaval of this passing world.
Dude, you’ve been ANALyzed.
Enjoy your day of “Forum Fame”, you done good.
People will be happy when President Trump is easily re-elected so till then relax.
You certainly are the exact opposite of your illustrious namesake. If he had your attitude, the entire continent of Europe would have been mohammedan since the fall of Vienna.
Sure it is. Keep on the sunny side. In your patience possess ye your souls. It's the way to go up... the Way of the Patriarchs. Highway 60 (GO), literally. Good job, Job!
Matthew 24
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
If your theology is wrong, you will not do well in the coming judgment.
Theology wonks hit hardest. Meanwhile, Jesus is out healing people. No wonder he had to go directly to the people outside of the established order. With all the rules, regulations, administrative costs and lawyers, only the system benefits. The regular folks saw what he was all about and caught on quickly that he was the only doc in town. No competition.
Smaller government... greater personal responsibity... a can-do spirit burning the midnight oil to get 'r done, in order to cut out the dead weight and simplify. Fresh air and sunshine and all that.
Those dependent upon the system would do anything to get a guy like that with that kind of messge off of center stage.
Living parable:
President Trump is leading the way to real change, which is the maverick solution for business, the pattern to follow (emulate). Those gunning for the exits are the Once-Hired-Always-Hired union and government types eyeing the clock at 1PM on a Friday afternoon.
All Jesus has to do is show up on a Friday at 5 o'clock to see who is still at work. No crowds, and really easy for him to find a parking spot.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
The Messiah is the last guy to be fixated on a clock. He's too busy loving what he does: caring for people with all of his heart, mind, and soul. <--- "Follow me."
Not complicated. It's life from the dead.
Buy American flags before the big rush.
Just one little point, “rapture” is not biblical.
Before the nation of Judah was taken into captivity, the King was told by a prophet that it was going to happen. It would be best if they just took the punishment, and went quietly. The King fought, he planned to flee, and instead of saving his life and that of his family, they were all destroyed. He was told to not buck Gods plan.
The same thing is going on today. We are going into captivity no matter what we do, we need to prepare our hearts and minds, not food and weapons. We will be saved from destruction, just be true to Jesus, and trust that God loves you enough to give victory to you in the end.
It is going to be a rough ride. Trump is fighting a good fight, but if we are in the timeline I believe we are, he will lose. Not because of lack of trying, but because Gods plan cannot be defeated. Make no mistake, the Man of Sin and the worldwide system will come into being. It is Our Fathers plan, Satan just thinks it is his plan. We can fight, or we can pray and trust in God. Both ways you will end up in the right place after death, but one way lets you make it through while still “working in the field”. The other will leave you angry, and with a less fruitful life. JMO...
Excellent points and thank you for the scriptural context.
> “Yes, Trump is the best President of our lifetime. But where are the arrests? Where are the orange jumpsuits and chains? Where are the perp walks and mugshots? Where are they?”
Answers have to do with the ‘Outrage Trap’ described in this link and posted below:
http://freerepublic.com/focus/news/3786604/posts?page=67#67
Here are some counterintuitive developments that are frustrating and discouraging but are actually good moves:
1. Barr and Durham are NOT after all the lies that were told in the spying and coup as those are likely not winnable prosecutions. To understand this means to understand what a “counter-intel investigation” is and why Susan Rice’s last minute memo covered all their behinds. It’s called the OUTRAGE TRAP. Here is a must-read to understand why things are playing out as they are:
Beware of Obama’s Outrage Trap – Susan Rice’s “By The Book” Memo…
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/03/31/beware-of-obamas-outrage-trap-susan-rices-by-the-book-memo
Sundance followed up with some pieces on this but this one sets the stage for people to get an inside baseball view of what’s going on.
It goes like this:
Senate Committee Member: “You said in your report here on page such and such that stuff happened and that so-and-so did stuff all of which are provably untrue! This is outrageous!”
Swamp Response: “Yeah? So what Senator? We’re allowed to create disinformation under a counter-intel investigation.”
The Outrage Trap gives them all a stay-out-of-jail free card.
2. The above is why Senator Graham has been delaying holding hearings on all the lies, corruption, and coup plotting. The miscreants have an out. Graham and his staff are not stupid, they see the Outrage Trap and are sidestepping it. And they’ve taken a shellacking for dragging their feet to get geared up and in the game.
3. The Outrage Trap is also one of the factors the OIG Report was delayed indefinitely. The reason for this delay is presumably that Wray is still conducting his classification review. My take is Wray was told to sit on it. Wray. like Horowitz is a DC trough feeder. He’s neither White Hat nor Black Hat. He’s all things to all views signifying a whole lot of nothing. Careers and retirement are paramount at this stage. And that Trump fellow just might be impeached or the Fed will crash the economy and state media will go full nelson to make Trump accountable for it, hence losing in 2020. Then all the Wray’s and Horowitz’s in DC will need to face the hard left. This is the game they’ve learned to play.
There are more factors in the OIG Report delay. Horowitz in all likelihood wrote the telephone book sized report so that it threw red meat to conservatives while providing an out to Deep State Traitors. The report would drag on and on due to its sheer size and cause hearings to be held well into Summer 2020 with the Outrage Trap used as the universal get-out-of-jail pass.
Another factor in the OIG Report delay is that an ‘October Event’ was in works. A shooting, a whistleblower, a Russian prostitute, a war, a new BS Adam Schiff parody, an attempted assassination on the Trump family and children, etc. The Deep State and their Democrats have known for a long time that the FISA report was coming and of course they planned an event so sensational that their state media would be able to JAM the information signal channel of the OIG Report to the public.
4. Senator Graham’s feigned outrage at Trump’s Syria leave-the-Kurds-behind pullout was a good development. It confuses the state media. It makes him seem independent and at odds with the President so that when he does hold the hearings which will be delayed until further, he will appear IMPARTIAL. He’s taken a beating for this but he and his staff know what they are doing.
5. That leaves Barr and Durham at the fulcrim of saving the Republic. A couple of things on this.
a. Barr is well into his 70s and has stated that he has no need to ‘build or preserve political capital’. When people get to that age, they see life differently, they start to think of what they will leave behind. Most of the people they were close to on the way up are either retired or passed on. Barr’s character is what will determine which road he takes.
b. Nancy Pelosu remarked the week before last that Barr had “gone rogue”.
These two items a. and b. give confidence that Barr is going to do the right thing, what’s right for the country, not what’s right for the DC social strata.
6. Barr and Durham are not looking at FISA abuses as much as they are investigating the ORIGINS of the Russian-Collusion scheme. The ORIGINS will demolish the Outrage Trap and lead to winnable prosecutions against the Deep State. Getting the evidence and proof of the ORIGINS is game-set-match, it bypasses the Outrage Trap and beats the Deep State hands down.
