Sanctuary City Democrats Caught in Hypocrisy

We think it’s hilarious that all these folks who have “All Are Welcome Here!”, signs in their front yards collapse when put to the slightest test.  Martha’s Vineyard has a city sign declaring that “all are welcome here”, the immigrants, the BLM, the LGBTQ, and everyone else!  The island is littered with multi-million dollar homes that each have 4-5 bedrooms, but when only 50 immigrants showed up it turns out those folks weren’t willing to share their food and homes with immigrants!  They want them gone!  Read the whole article at Town Hall link below to see what “woke” mayors in Chicago, NYC and D.C. all said about being sanctuary cities for immigrants and now what they are saying and doing when the immigrants actually show up!

*********************************

It's no secret that the platitudes Democrats use to shame conservatives are merely an attempt to cloak their disastrous policies in a veneer of moral superiority, but recently the left's hypocrisy ha been on full display from the elected officials who run blue cities across the country thanks to Republican leaders who called the bluff and sent illegal immigrants to those whose party's policies — and their voters — are responsible for the border crisis. 

It doesn't take much to find the hypocrite in the haystack thanks to Twitter, so let's take a walk into the not-so-distant past to see what these Democrats officials who have declared emergencies and Democrat voters who are whining about humanitarian crises in their own cities after denying any issues existed at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Red Heifers Arrive in Israel

 The Jews need the ashes of a perfect red heifer in order for any priest to enter the Temple.  It all seems to be coming together!  The 3rd Temple will be built and priests will go into it and animals will be sacrificed again after 2000 years with no Temple and no Israel!  Nothing like this has ever happened in all of world history but God told us this is exactly what would happen in the very Last Days.

********************

The Temple Institute and Boneh Israel made a huge step towards reinstating the Temple service on Thursday when five red heifers landed at Ben Gurion International Airport.

The red heifer was the main component in the Biblically mandated process of ritual purification for impurity that results from proximity or contact with a dead body.  Because the elements needed for this ceremony have been lacking since the destruction of the Second Temple, all Jews today are considered ritually impure, thereby preventing the return of the Temple service. The Temple Institute launched its  Red Heifer program about a decade ago, led by Rabbi Azariah Ariel. But even in Temple times, an animal that fulfilled the Biblical requirements was exceedingly rare. Failing to produce a suitable candidate from ranchers in Israel, The Temple Institute began investigating alternative sources for a red heifer.

Boneh Israel, an organization that connects Christian lovers of Israel to the Holy Land, stepped in to help. Led by Byron Stinson, a native Texan, Boneh Israel understood ranchers.

Prologue to WWIII, "The Land Will be on Fire and the Concrete Will Melt"

 If you had Russia as your neighbor you very well would want a team approach with your neighbors to fight them off should they invade you.  That's kind of the reason that NATO was put on the books in the first place.  If Russia attacks any NATO member then it is viewed as an attack on them all  and they all fight back at once.

Today we read that Ukraine would like to have some security agreements in place with USA and others WHILE it seeks membership into NATO.  As you can imagine, Russia doesn't want NATO on it's borders so their response to Ukraine trying to put together the Kyiv Security Compact was met with some very aggressive language coming from Russia.

Ukraine wants a 'NATO-esque' bloc which can be called upon to immediately defend borders with Russia, which was proposed by a working group established by President Volodymyr Zelensky. Crucially it would include the United States and other NATO allies providing Ukraine with "security guarantees".  Kiev officials stressed in unveiling the plan Tuesday that it's not meant as a replacement for NATO, but as a legally binding alliance to be in place while Ukraine eventually pursues full NATO membership, as Newsweek describes of the proposal: 

The Kyiv Security Compact (KSC)—proposed by Andriy Yermak, the head of Zelensky's office, and former NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen—would also establish a "multi-decade" plan of investment, military training, and intelligence sharing to bolster Ukraine's defensive capabilities as the country pursues full NATO membership.

The Kremlin's reaction has been swift and fierce, with Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia Dmitry Medvedev warning that it is "really a prologue to the Third World War" if it gets enacted. He described that nuclear holocaust would be the end result.

According to a translation of Medvedev's reaction in state media, which had been posted in a statement to Telegram, he blamed "dull idiots" from "stupid think tanks" for concocting such a "hysterical appeal". Medvedev wrote:

"And then the Western nations will not be able to sit in their clean homes, laughing at how they carefully weaken Russia by proxy. Everything will be on fire around them. Their people will harvest their grief in full. The land will be on fire and the concrete will melt."

"Yet still the narrow-minded politicians and their stupid think tanks, thoughtfully twirling a glass of wine in their hands, talk about how they can deal with us without entering into a direct war. Dull idiots with a classical education."

He said that already the conflict in Ukraine is sliding into unknown, unpredictable territory of escalation due to the West's "unrestrained pumping of the Kiev regime with the most dangerous types of weapons." 

He added to the statements as follows according to a translation: 

The Kyiv camarilla gave birth to a project of "security guarantees", which are a prologue to the third world war. Of course, no one will give any "guarantees" to the Ukrainian Nazis. After all, this is almost the same as applying Article 5 of the North Atlantic Pact (Washington Treaty) to Ukraine. For NATO – the same shit, only a side view. Therefore, it’s scary.

Here;  "Prologue To Third World War": Kremlin Reacts To Security Guarantees For Ukraine | ZeroHedge

The only thing we know that melts concrete is nuclear weapons and clearly Medvedev was alluding to Russia being willing to go there if Ukraine keeps pushing.

Also notice that he called Ukraine "Nazis".  Russia doesn't like Nazis and neither does anyone else.

We continue to believe that the USA and the West is framing the war in Ukraine as "Ukraine=good. Russia=bad."

But we aren't sure it's quite that simple.  Ukraine did have some troubling Nazi cooperation during WWII.

For now we continue to file this latest tantrum into the "Wars and rumors of war" that Jesus told us would hi-light the very last days.

Satan Readying World for Antichrist With Demonic Content

 It’s hard to argue with Pastor Youssef’s observations.  He admits he’s not an end-times preacher but when you see cartoons being rolled out for kids that have the story line of Satan impregnating a woman and giving birth to a demon child...how much longer can it be before the man of lawlessness comes on scene?

*****************

The 73-year-old Egyptian-American pastor told The Christian Post during an interview Tuesday.

Instead, said Youssef, his new book, Is The End Near?, which walks Christians through Jesus’ depictions of the biblical end times in the Gospel of Matthew, is merely pointing out what many have already chronicled, namely, the rise in demonic content in popular culture and an increase in the frequency of global catastrophes.

Popular shows like TV's "Lucifer" and “Little Demon," said Youssef, underscore a common theme of acceptance and humanization of the biblical Antichrist figure referenced in the book of Revelation.

"Little Demon," a Disney-owned animated program, features a woman who is impregnated by Satan and gives birth to an Antichrist daughter. The show contains nudity, violence, and witchcraft.

The series has earned warnings from pastors and condemnation from groups like One Million Moms, which said the “show makes light of hell and the dangers of the demonic realm.” 

Youssef called such programming content an example of how secular media plays a “major role” in practicing a form of indoctrination when it comes to truth-telling.

“So many so-called journalists are saying that objectivity is really a passe among journalists and broadcasters, that there ought to be no objectivity,” he said. “So they’re already  sanctifying and praising subjectivity, so that when the Antichrist comes, they’re all going to be ready. … The media is playing a major role in all of that."

“If anybody had doubts about that, the last six years should have cured us of that doubt.”

He compared the current state of the media to the high-profile push for mass vaccinations during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“You see the sheep. We’ve got a sheep mentality,” he said. “When I see the preparation in the hearts of people … ‘Oh yeah, yeah, the Antichrist is good for us just like the vaccine is good for us.'"

He then clarified, “I’m not against vaccines, but I’m just saying, we’ve all got to fall in line. Not all, of course, because some of us are going to stand up and say, ‘Absolutely not.’”

The global COVID shutdowns, such as the harsh restrictions implemented in Australia, where Youseff lived and was ordained, “taught us how easily and how quickly some authoritarian power rises in democracies,” the pastor said.

“As authoritarian regimes are rising even in Western democracies, you see this is Satan’s way of preparing the world for the Antichrist,” he added.

We Have Confused Politics With the Gospel

 We have said this too so agree with Pastor Brown.  Donald Trump or Rick Desantis are not going to save America.  Only Jesus can do that.  We need to remember that we are just aliens passing through a foreign land and this is not our home.  I love America and it’s sad to see where the Left is taking it but let’s remember that hating actual people you know on the Left is not what Jesus would have commanded about loving our enemies.  Let’s be careful of getting too caught up in any political figure.

*************************************

During a recent appearance on CBN's Faith vs. Culture, Brown spoke about how Christians have mixed up politics with the Gospel. Brown also addressed this topic in his new book, The Political Seduction of the Church: How Millions Of American Christians Have Confused Politics with the Gospel.

"I agree that we're dealing with existential issues," Brown, the host of the radio broadcast Line of Fire, said. "I agree that [there's a] battle for life … the battle for family, international issues, Israel – there are massive things."

"When we put our trust in the political system to change society, when we become more consumed with winning the elections than winning the lost, when we marry the Gospel with politics, when our Christianity becomes an appendage to a political party, we have confused politics with the Gospel," he continued.

Brown, who voted for Donald Trump in the past two presidential elections, noted that he had never seen so much prayer for a political candidate until the 2020 election.

"It wasn't prayer for revival; it wasn't prayer for the Great Commission," he explained. "It was prayer for a candidate to win the elections, a candidate I voted for, but recognizing that only Jesus can save America."

Brown further shared how voting or not voting for Trump became a litmus test for determining whether one was a Christian.

"You had Christians saying, 'You cannot be a Christian and vote for a man like that,'" he said. "You had other Christians saying, 'If you don't vote for Trump, you're not a Christian.'"

"I thought the thing that divided us was who Jesus is. That's what separates us from the world," Brown continued.

Brown also shared his concerns over the failed prophecies about Trump, whether it was serving for two consecutive terms or him somehow returning to office after Joe Biden became president.

While Brown says there's nothing wrong with getting involved in politics, he asserted that Christians must once again prioritize their allegiance to Christ over any political party or candidate.

"I just want people to hear the message because if the church doesn't get things right, it's all over for America," he said.

"We are in this world, but not of it. We operate based on different principles," he said. "And if we are more [aligned] to a candidate or a party than we are known for allegiance to Jesus, our priorities are out of whack."

Desantis in Florida to Push for Teaching of Hebrew Bible

 This is a pretty cool story.  I'm sure the Leftist heads will explode, but there is no doubt that our founding fathers used Judeo-Christian values to form this nation.  So why wouldn't we teach our kids what our founding fathers used?

In an Aug. 27 speech at the Nashville Women’s Conference, Laurie Cardoza-Moore, head of announced that she was working with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to make his state the first to teach “the Hebrew Bible” a requirement in Civics in Florida public schools.

“They will learn about the Hebrew Bible and the role it played in the founding of our nation,” Cardozo-Moore explained. “They will learn about the Hebrew Bible and the role it played in the drafting of our founding documents. They will learn about the Hebrew Bible and the role it played in the structure in our form of government. Our nation was founded on the Torah.”

“Florida is the only state in the nation now that is teaching what God commands us to teach our children,” she said.

Moore is the head of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations, a Christian Zionist organization that battles antisemitism. 

A video of her statements was posted by Right Wing Watch, a far-left organization, saying it posted the clip “to expose the agenda of the extreme right.” The organization slammed her speech, describing Cardozo-Moore as a “Trump-loving, anti– Islam, religious-right activist who has recently begun to focus her efforts on ensuring that public school textbooks eliminate what she claims is anti-Semitic, anti-Judeo/Christian, Anti-American, pro-Islamic indoctrination of students.”

“Her comments are simply another way of stating the false Christian nationalist claim that the United States was founded on the Bible—a claim meant to justify their efforts to dismantle the separation of church and state,” RWW wrote.

Her speech was also the target of an article in Forward, a far-left media targeting a Jewish audience.

The initiative to include the study of Torah comes in the wake of several Florida districts flipping their school boards due to the recent elections. Moore’s organization has been facilitating this change through its Taking Back America’s Children initiative by supporting, encouraging, and training everyday citizens to engage in the democratic process.

I'm quite sure that our founding fathers had no mention of SEPERATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.  They fully intended our citizens to be brought up with an understanding of the Bible.  What they didn't want was the state to mandate that we all would have to be Methodists or Lutherans.

Credit Card Companies Come Up With Code to Identify Gun Stores

 Those nasty guns!!  It's not the nasty people who are killing and maiming everyone...no!  It's those crazy guns that just jump up out of nowhere and shoot everyone dead!  Only crazy people actually want to own guns!  They should be illegal!  No one needs a gun except some of the police and someone in the military.  We need to make gun owners pay for their perverse desire to own guns.  We need a way to identify who those gun owners are.  Let's come up with a way to mark anyone who buys something at a gun store!  Then we will be one step closer to identifying WHO all these crazy gun owners are!

Do you think I'm kidding or going a little too far in my hyperbole??

Visa Inc., Mastercard Inc. and American Express Co. will take steps to implement a new merchant code that could improve tracking of firearm purchases. 

The moves by the largest US credit-card companies come a day after the International Organization for Standardization approved a new merchant category code for gun and ammunition stores to use when processing transactions. The approval follows a campaign by Amalgamated Bank, New York city and state officials, and the California’s teachers’ pension fund for the new code. 

“Following ISO’s decision to establish a new merchant category code, Visa will proceed with next steps, while ensuring we protect all legal commerce on the Visa network in accordance with our long-standing rules,” the company said in an emailed statement Saturday. 

Meanwhile, Mastercard said in a statement it will focus on how the new system will be implemented by merchants and their banks “as we continue to support lawful purchases on our network while protecting the privacy and decisions of individual cardholders.” 

A merchant category code is a four-digit number used by credit-card companies to classify businesses. It typically indicates the types of services or goods being sold to consumers. The new code will apply to all purchases at gun and ammunition stores, though firearm purchases at other types of retailers won’t be captured separately.   

After the approval of the code Friday, New York City Comptroller Brad Lander said the move would help financial institutions flag suspicious activity at these merchants and help save lives. 

It remains to be seen how the new code will be implemented by credit card firms, the banks that issue cards to consumers, as well as other third-party payment processors.

“We are focused on ensuring that we have the right controls in place to meet our regulatory and fiduciary responsibilities, as well as prevent illegal activity​ on our network,” American Express said in a statement. 

Here;  Credit Card Companies to Start Implementing New Code to Track Gun Purchases - Bloomberg

Some Wall Street insiders will tell you that we are literally months away from America coming up with a new CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency).  So if 90% of our purchases are done on credit cards and the the other 10% done with digital currency, this means that every single purchase you make will have a footprint on it that the FBI or police could get ahold of anytime they see fit.

You can see clearly now that for the first time in human history we have the technology, desire and excuse to put in place a system where some type of mark will be required by ANYONE who wants to access the financial system.  It will be argued that only drug cartels, human traffickers, sex trade and gun buyers still want to have a cash system.  Also remember that cash spreads COVIDs and monkey pox so simply isn't safe to use anymore.  

You can soon expect some leftist to post a question like this on Social Media, "How would you feel if you gave your granddaughter a $20 bill in a birthday card and the money had COVIDs on it and she died??"

"Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed, as they are in almost every country in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops."

Even BBC Can't Ignore Evidence of Noah's Flood

 In this article by the BBC they are questioning how many people can planet earth support?  Later this year we expected to top 8 billion.  Just 28 years ago the population was 5.5 billion.  Of course BBC is super liberal and has a humanist world view.  They talk about how 75,000 years ago a big volcano erupted and caused the population of humans and animals to crash.  They talk about how mankind has ruined all the pristine places on planet earth...which is true, but hardly a biblical worldview.

But the following paragraphs are what caught my eye in the BBC article.

But four in particular were special. They contained missing sections of a story found in fragments on separate tablets scattered across Mesopotamia, which is still intriguing historians today.  

"Twelve hundred years had not yet passed [since the creation of mankind], When the land extended and the people multiplied…" goes the Atra-hasis – the epic poem stamped into the clay by an anonymous scribe around the 17th Century BC. It's the Mesopotamian version of the ubiquitous Great Flood story, found in countless forms in cultures across the globe, in which civilisation is destroyed by a deity – and it might contain one of the earliest mentions of overpopulation in the historical record.

In the ancient tale, the gods become annoyed at all the "noise" and "uproar" created by the human hordes, as well as the "lands bellowing like a bull" due to the stresses they were put under by our species' demands. The god of the atmosphere, Enlil, decides to unleash a few hazards to bring numbers down again – contriving plagues, famines and droughts to arrive at regular intervals of 1,200 years. Fortunately, another god saves the day – this time. But then Enlil plans a great flood instead... and the classic tale of boat-building ensues.  

Here;  How many people can Earth handle? - BBC Future

Pretty amazing!  A flood story found everywhere across the globe!

Remember that Jesus even referred to Noah, and Jesus is God.  So we can take it to the bank that there was a great flood that killed everyone except Noah and the 7 other humans on board the ark.
