Radio talk show host Dan Bongino was telling his audience last Tuesday that the evil taking place has changed America—greatly diminished the nation’s greatness. He concluded that those of patriotic determination must resolve to fight with all political might to counter the wickedness.
Bongino said, in effect, that it isn’t any longer just disagreement within various governing issues or even constitutional issues that’s the problem—although those things concerning how to properly govern in a constitutional republic are critical. Those are important and must be vigorously defended against the progressive attempts to bring down our orderly and lawfully governed way of life.
He then played a clip of two women conversing on, I presume, a progressive podcast or broadcast program. Bongino said this is the kind of evil we as a nation are up against.
The women, obviously ultra-progressive, were talking about how the transsexual agenda is all-important and must win out over influences such as Christians and their challenges to true progress in the area of transsexuality and children.
The argument one of the women made was that those who oppose the sexual/gender changes taking place in regard to the trans movement say boys have penises and girls have vulvas, and that’s the way it is. They can’t change that as part of being born humans. The woman then said, “Why not? Why can’t people who sense or know they are other than what they were born with change if they want to change?”
In effect, she said it is each person’s right to choose which sex they want to be, and no one should be allowed to restrict that right.
This was serious-sounding discussion—grown women, very well-spoken—declaring that individual human beings should choose the gender as their realization of which sex they are comes forth. They were talking about children as young as kindergartners.
Bongino then said, after playing the clip, that this sort of thing is what will destroy this nation; it is pure wickedness—evil—that is setting up to totally turn America into something other than what the country has been.
He said next that we have to fight this evil now. It has gone far beyond what formerly were merely issues of political importance. It is up to us—true patriots—to concentrate on dealing with—fighting with all we have—this demonic insanity.
Of course, he is absolutely correct. It is insanity. It is the reprobate mindset of Romans 1:28. Things are not “normal.” Things we see now—every hour of every day—are more and more evil being unleashed through end-times portals into society and culture.
However, Bongino is dead wrong about how to fight it. The only armor with which to oppose this wickedness spawned by the devil and his minions (including his human minions) is to turn to the Lord Jesus Christ for heavenly assistance.
Again, Paul has told us the problem humanity faces. We see this in Scripture surrounding Ephesians 6:12.
Paul said evil men and seducers will grow worse and worse the closer the end of the age comes. Only the weapons God gives to believers can prevail against such wickedness. Things will eventuate, Jesus foretold, in conditions being just like they were in the days of Lot when He will next catastrophically intervene in the evil affairs of humankind. God’s judgment and wrath will then rain down on incorrigibly rebellious earth-dwellers.
This is why I no longer look to the political process to correct the nation’s course—to make America great. Do I mean I don’t vote any longer or do what I can to work within society to fight evil legislation and even illegal, anti-American activity? No. Of course not. But now I view all political action as all but totally useless in changing things for the better. The best such action can yield is that of helping delay the inevitable. The world and our beloved nation are headed for God’s judgment and His holy wrath.
This course of devolving into prophetic oblivion is inalterable from the standpoint of our politicians and their schemes being ineffective at best and destructive at worse. Now, with the very end of the Age of Grace (Church Age) directly in front of us on the prophetic horizon, it is time—individually, as God’s royal ambassadors—to put on that machinery of waging holy war.
And, lest we be accused of calling for physical, kinetic, violent warfare, I’m referring again to the weaponry issued by the armory of Heaven to each and every believer. Weaponry to fight a spiritual battle against the evil assaulting humanity each and every hour of each and every day…wickedness like we find within the conversation of the “progressive” women mentioned above.
But what can mere spiritual armor do to prevail against the mounting evil? God sometimes seems so far distant as we face these literal circumstances that assault.
It is a certainty that the more the wicked one and his force ramp up the assaults, the Lord will provide his Church with the arsenal to oppose Satan and his minions.
Jesus said that the gates of Hell, the forces of evil, will not prevail against the Church. We are God’s force, indwelt by God the Holy Spirit. We will be used by the Lord of hosts to restrain this onset of evil until we are suddenly removed from the battlefield.
Here again is the arsenal each of us who name the name of Christ has been issued for battle until that marvelous moment of Rapture:
“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints” (Ephesians 6:13-18).
End Times Ping.

Maranatha!
Good article!
Exactly. Ephesians 6 and PRAYER.
Churches need to get back toa midweek prayer meeting. Anyone else notice that as those have fallen out of favor, the evil is becoming worse>
And the excuses I hear. It costs to much to heat the building.
Not many people show up.
SERIOUSLY????????
The denomination of the Christian and Missionary Alliance started by a prayer meeting of SIX people.
I love my country and always will but we are steeped in sin. Two of the four sins that cry out to Heaven for vengeance, wanton murder (abortion), and the sin of sodom (homosexual acts) are so strong here. What I also worry about is God’s anger when we corrupt poorer countries with traditional values. Denying them aid unless they cut their population or exporting vulgar entertainment to them. We need pray and fast.
.
I got Jonathon Cahn’s book “The Return of the Gods” and I’m gonna start reading it. But in it he explains that the return of pagan demons is what is fueling the insanity Bongino is referring to. If this nation doesn’t reverse course immediately it will be destroyed, but only a heaven sent revival can accomplish that. Nothing else.
So it’s been 6 weeks.
Share more about the book now that you have read it.
We’d really like to know.
I haven’t finished it yet, but it’s right here next to me. I’ll get it done soon. Been busy trying to find a new place to move and retire to.
