| Romney and Obama - Two Sides of the Same Piece of Counterfeit Currency. - (Part 4) Fourth, here are another pair of passages
Here I have chosen the two passages from the episode wherein the Lord Jesus Christ is being tempted by the Devil. The Devil says to Romney and Obama, and to all of us in this hour, "All these things will I give thee if thou wilt fall down and worship me." (MT 4:9) To worship the devil means to raise falsehood upon a pedestal to worship and serve. Republicans are doing that when they swallow the lies the Romney machine has told about Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Moreover, if anyone thinks Romney can win, that is certainly an example of worshiping a falsehood. If people merely hope Romney can win, that is even worse, in hoping the purveyor of lies can be crowned with power and glory. But the Lord Christ speaks to our hearts, "Thou Shalt Worship the Lord thy God and Him Only Shalt Thou Serve" (MT 4:10) To worship God means to reject falsehood, and to raise truth upon a pedestal to worship and to serve. The skulls embedded in the left-hand gate, represent the death of allegiance to founding principles, the death of understanding, the death of appreciation, even the death of appreciation for truth itself, as Romney so clearly exemplifies, as well as a new found allegiance to the actuality of death, even as a national virtue, in the slaughter of the unborn. After all, the bodies of 55 million defenseless children murdered by the abortionists in this nation since 1973, are piled in a large heap outside the gates of this "Shining City on the Hill." And thousands more are thrown on the top of that heap every day. Thousands. The gates swing open, the bodies are piled on, and the gates swing closed, and everyone within the walled city, well they are fat, happy, and self-satisfied with their attainment of virtue, though they complain a lot about gas prices. Thomas Jefferson, speaking of slavery, revealed himself to be prophet when he said, "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever." This principle is as relevant today, in relationship to the abortion holocaust, as it was relevant to the injustice of slavery in Jefferson's time. Jefferson's soul could smell the storm coming, as we can smell that storm coming today. Romney is as pro-abortion as Obama. The only difference being that he must hide his full enthusiasm for the dead babies of the unwashed masses to get the vote of (the most gullible of the) pro-life conservatives in the Republican Party. His love for firing people at the drop of a hat, is an outer expression for his support for abortion, for his deep respect for the "convenience" factor that legal abortion represents. Look at the statements that the NRLC has compiled to try to convince us that Romney is pro-life. There is not a single statement there that comes close to affirming the right of the child to life. Why? Because he doesn't believe it. If he believed it, he would have said it by now. Where is that statement from the 2008 presidential campaign? He's had numerous opportunities to tell us how deeply he feels about the child's right to life. Where is that statement? It does not exist. Where is that statement in this campaign? It does not exist. No one with a pro-life heart could have said the things he said during his Massachusetts' campaign. The pro-life conscience could never allow it. What Romney said about his support for abortion rights during his campaign for the Massachusetts Senate seat, and his campaign for the Massachusetts Governor's Seat represents the truth about who Romney is. The heart of Mitt Romney is to be found within that classic domain of secular selfishness that does not recognize that the child is Created by God, as the Declaration of Independence makes clear, and therefore has an inalienable right to life. According to the elite liberal crowd that has surrounded Romney his whole life, the woman has the right to do with her body what she wills. She's the "boss". He really relates to that. That's what he expressed, and that is the story of his life. It is a totally selfish life that was devoted only to the acquisition of personal wealth (by preying upon sick and injured businesses) that would allow him to acquire, in the footsteps of his father, personal political power. He has never lived outside of that particular circle. (Legal abortion has always been, and continues to be the most direct and cold-hearted attack on the Creator principle in the Declaration of Independence. A nation that denies freedom to tens of millions of real people, will have freedom denied to them. That is the Justice of God that no longer sleeps, but is stirring awake as we speak.) To vote for a heart devoted to the death of the unborn, thinking that one will gain there-by the prize of political power for your party, is certainly to follow Romney down that left-handed path, to fall for the temptation of the devil, who plays upon the lusts of this world to entice the people to turn their back on God. In that way do Republicans accelerate the nation's movement in the direction of national suicide. Indeed, abortion is the 800LB Gorilla in the room that the nation ignores at its imminent peril. Make no mistake. To vote for Romney would be the most blatant betrayal of God that a Republican soul could ever conceive of, and the Party (and the country) would pay the price for that betrayal in the long run. As more and more souls are corrupted in this manner, how can the hope of the American Dream ever be revived? In Part 5, we will take a look through the doorway to the right to see where it leads. |
