Dear friends, say whatever you want about President Donald Trump, love him or hate him; however, if you are objective and real; you will have to admit that Donald Trump seeks much of our Founding Father's vision in our EXPONENTIALLY technological/ post Judeo/Christian culture here in America! It is absolutely amazing how the demonic legions here in America absolutely hate and despise him (Rom. 1:18-32, Jude 1:10)! They are indeed the children and offspring of Alinsky's master! Their EXPONENTIAL evil zeal and lawless moral relativistic thinking and rage have been on full parade since 2015! If these absolutely hate President Trump who is just a man, how much more do you think that they would hate the ETERNAL Lord of Glory and the RIGHTEOUS OF GOD, the Lord Jesus Christ!
If these hate President Trump who is just a man, how much more do you think that they would hate the ETERNAL Lord of Glory; the Lord Jesus Christ!
Now by observing today's American lawless and godless Left's hatred for our President, now let"s transfer that same demonic spirit to the Lord Jesus' day and greatly magnify it! My dear friends, let's now - after this thought kick it up ETERNALLY, PERFECTLY and RIGHTEOUSLY! Let's say... that the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the ETERNAL WORD of Almighty God (John 1:1-14), The FATHER of ETERNITY (Isa. 9:6, Rev. 1:11; 22:13), The Alpha and Omega/ First and Last (Isa. 9:6; 44:6, Rev. 1:11; 22:13), the Risen Savior and sin-bearer of ALL humanity (Psalm 110:1, Matt. 28:6, John 11:25, Rev. 1:17-18; 21:22-23; 22:3-5), the ETERNAL LORD and possessor of the "Keys of Death and Sheol (Psalm 110:1, John 11:25, Phil. 2:5-11, Rev. 1:17-18; Rev. 19:21) came to the "land of the free" today? What do you believe the majority of Americans would do with Him? Would the "Word made Flesh" be received and welcomed as the Savior of the world? Would "church" goers receive Him with open arms? Would the socially dependent so-called "poor", rich and government/educational elites welcome Him with open arms? Would the conservative and leftist media outlets have good things to say about Him? Would His countless miracles of healing the lame, blind, sick and demon-possessed win over the masses from sea to shining sea? Well... Tragically the heart of a man is NOT changed by witnessing signs and wonders (Matt. 13, Rom. 10:17). Man will just about justify, excuse and do anything rather than changing and repenting to Almighty God's saving grace (John 3:19-21, Rom. 1:18-32). The history of mankind is full of such godless testimonies (Psalm 106:7, John 5:1-18, Acts 2:22-23, Rev. 11:3-13, Rev. 20:6-15). I guarantee you that the majority of Americans; who would have seen Jesus; would in like manner (Liberals and Conservatives); by the end of His 3 1/2 year "American" ministry; would have had enough of Him, His ETERNAL realities, His cries of repentance to a lost and dying world, and would in national unison shout; CRUCIFY Him and put Him to death! The country we live in today has absolutely NO PLACE for Almighty God, RIGHTEOUSNESS, REPENTANCE, the Bible or the Lord Jesus Christ! So when push comes to shove and the chips are down, when one's back is up against the wall; the true nature of an individual is then revealed and it "ain't" pretty! Such was the heart in Jesus' day and such is the heart of our day.
Man will just about justify, excuse and do anything rather than changing and repenting to Almighty God's saving grace.
As it were, Jesus (at His visitation) had absolutely dominated the “news cycle” of His day for 3 ½ years! Jesus would have been constantly talked about in all of the newspapers and on all of the radio talk shows, blogs and mainstream media outlets. The Sadducee and Pharisee talk show hosts of that day would ignorantly miss represent Him to the kool-aid drinking Israeli masses of conservatives and liberal Jews of Jesus day. His enemies would have be on 24/7 slandering campaigns to change and curb public opinion against Him. His WONDERFUL WORDS OF LIFE and ETERNAL REDEMPTION to a doomed and fallen world would have been called intolerant, hate speech, bigoted and satanic-phobia. There would have been constant polls questioning and asking, “Is Jesus the Messiah?” “Is He good for Israel?” “Do you believe that Jesus is God? etc. Religious and political hacks would have followed Him around Israel protesting, misrepresenting and misquoting His words, miracles and wonders to their godless doom! Those in opposition along with government bureaucrats would have sought to limit where Jesus was to speak and sent their spies out to follow Him to gather incriminating evidence against Him. The unbelieving Israeli socialists would have wanted Jesus to run for leadership as a socialist “cradle to grave” provider of the people without ever addressing their ETERNAL needs. Conservatives would have wanted Jesus to run for office to instill a conservative utopia (in this fallen world) where the people can honor God according to their “OWN” conservative mindset while REJECTING Almighty God’s ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS provision for ETERNITY (Rom. 10:2-4). The poor would have wanted something for nothing and the rich low taxes to grow the economy and their “worldly” business.
Unbelief, is unbelief, is unbelief, is unbelief! If it quacks like an unbelieving duck and walks like an unbelieving duck it is an unbelieving duck! It was so in Jesus Day and it is so in our day!
My friends NOTHING is EVER new under the sun! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING (Eccl. 1)! Whether conservative unbelief or liberal unbelief (politically or religiously), Unbelief, is unbelief, is unbelief, is unbelief! If it quacks like an unbelieving duck, and walks like an unbelieving duck, it is an unbelieving duck! It was so in Jesus' day and it is so in our day! Lucifer has - then and today - the same playbook and countless unbelieving godless demonic kool-aid drinkers to do his will (1 Cor. 4:3-4, Eph 2:2-3); who (conservative, moderate and liberal) REJECT Almighty God’s saving grace; which comes ONLY by His dear Son Jesus Messiah (John 3:16-21, 14:6, Acts 4:12). Conservative, Moderate, Liberal, Progressive etc… ALL are lost and ALL are fallen (Rom. 3:23, 5:12-21). Whatever part of the spectrum one might fall in, we are ALL equally a broken egg who desperately needs redemption and Almighty God's PERFECT atoning propitiation (Rom. 3:23, 5:12-21, 1 John 4:10)! That my dear friend is the bottom line and is our greatest need for our temporal existence here in time for today (Rom. 6:23).
A "Christian" ideology will not save you. A moral life will not save you. ONLY faith in the Person and Work of Jesus Christ will SAVE you from the wrath to come!
May I ask YOU this very simple question? If the Lord Jesus came today to America, would YOU receive Him as your Savior? The test to see for yourself is will YOU receive God's Word witness to Who He was? That is always the crossroad for an individual. A "Christian" ideology will not save you. A moral life will not save you. ONLY faith in the Person and Work of Jesus Christ will SAVE you from the wrath to come (John 3:16-17,36, 1 Thess. 1:10). My dear friend, see for yourself and take this simple challenge from Almighty God's Book. It will be then and there that YOU will see if - in the end - you would have yelled with the multitudes 2000 years ago "CRUCIFY HIM!!" or SAVE ME, Lord Jesus! In the end, the choice is ALL yours. would will it be? May you choose life, my dear friend!
The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
They would murder him just like they did 2000 years ago.
Even a lot of those who claim to believe in Jesus would murder Him.
After they pledged their undying devotion to Jesus, and got up off their knees, they'd call the Gestapo and have him arrested.
...YUP! Except this time, he’s coming back with a piece of rebar in his hand instead of reed grass.
I don’t think that would or could happen. Jesus only needed to die once. His next visit will be to kick ass and chew bubblegum.*
* He’s all out of bubblegum.
Remember they hated Him first.....................
John 15:18 KJV
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
The left would obviously be against Jesus.
They are the party of literal evil who’ve promoted the sacrifice of 1m+ babies every year for 50+ years.
Jesus is coming back as Charles Bronson.
I’ve twice voted for Trump, and will do so again ... but let’s not start comparing Trump to Christ.
“Jesus is coming back as Charles Bronson.”
In our devotions the last two nights, we had Lamentations Chapters 1 and 2. The Lord was PISSED at the people, and He was ruthless. I saw a lot of parallels between them and us. Maybe He won’t bother coming to straighten things out; maybe we’re too far gone.
I agree. It’s a stupid premise.
Amen 🙏🏻!
Actually, He’s coming back as the One True God King.
I am sure the liberal media would report “a rambling, nearly incoherent man claiming to be son of God falsely claimed (among other things) that globalists running most of the world’s nations were under the direction of a mythical figure he called Satan, which is a conspiracy theory popular with elements of the far right, and religious fanatics. Experts say the messianic delusion is common among marginalized white males. Pope Francis issued a statement saying the faithful should follow the lead of authorized clergy and not leap to conclusions.”
So maybe we can test these guesses later this year, the signs are everywhere.
The Bible recommends not taking an oath because you will be held accountable for it. If Jesus came back to day, there would be a whole lot of people in some trouble.
If the Lord Jesus comes today, HE WILL HAVE AN IRON ROD IN HIS HAND!
