Idolatry looms large in America... for all of our protestations, otherwise, we possess numerous significant
idols - as a nation. They include:
Money,
Fame,
Power, and
Success - among others. But the greatest, of all our idols, is
Government! Americans fully believe that: "
Man-Made Governments can provide the solution to anything..." and, over time, we've placed everything into their [seemingly] capable hands. Our leaders have become "
The New Priesthood" - who stand to constantly intercede for us, before this
Strange New God. Two divergent parties control
The Priesthood:
Our Sadducee Democrats [who believe there will never be an actual judgment], and
Our Pharisaical Republicans [who speak great and inspiring things, but don't do anything that they ever effectually say].
America likes this
New God much more than
Yahweh, for they perceive her as being very very strong. She asks no one to give her a simple ten percent tithe... hell, she demands double that [as the tribute fully due her] and will use physical force to ensure that she invariably gets it. Nor, does she ask her followers to be generous and charitable... she can [merely] take whatever she wants and then pass it on to yet others. In battle she vanquishes all others, through her very powerful technological magics... and her servants are protected, by her various miraculous enchantments! Who on Earth can stand against her and yet live? Meanwhile, all of the nations on Earth honestly tremble before her....

In God We Trust... but [precisely] which one? | | |
While we've given up on
Yahweh's spiritual and temporal blessings,
Our New Governmental God is now amply providing for these current functions. More importantly, our
New God doesn't require any silly morality or ethics to substantially obtain her god-given societal blessings. The lazy man shall eat... the non-productive gets paid... and even the crooks can get substantially bailed out! True, Yahweh may own the cattle and sheep on a thousand hills across our largely populated planet... but
Our New God, can print all of the money that she may ever need to effectually buy them!
And yet, I just can't help but wonder... "If men can so easily create their
Own God, then why wouldn't everybody on Earth be doing it?" Could it be, that our
New God, isn't really any kind of
God at all? And what of those heretical
Austrian Economists - those perpetual prophets of doom. Could their horrific predictions be right? What if all that paper money [really] does become worthless overnight; and all of our seemingly endless wealth comes to naught? What will our
New God do then? Might she grow increasingly: restless, frustrated, and/or angry with her millions of irreverent individual servants? After all, it's never good to anger your own personal God....

Oh, Nation Of Fools, you have already angered
Your Own God, for
Yahweh Our Creator has inspired the prophet to write thusly, for this wicked and largely adulterous generation... and, as he has written, it shall soon come to pass:
- "When He opened The Third Seal, I heard the third living creature say, 'Come and see.' And I looked, and behold A Black Horse, and he who sat upon it had a Pair Of Scales in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, 'A quart of wheat for a Denarius, and three quarts of barley for a Denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.'" - Revelation 6:5-6.
One loaf of bread shall soon equate to a man's full day labors. For though the earth shall bring forth its fruit, your
False Gods - both: your governments and their worthless paper money - will be powerless to acquire it for you. Remember whose children you truly are before it's too late!
Your False Gods, such as:
Money,
Fame,
Power, and
Success can profit a man nothing... even less,
The Ineffectual Governments Of Man.
All forms Of Idolatry are an abomination to
Yahweh Our Creator.
You make a good point; sometimes we look to our government to do for us what only God can. Then we complain about what a bad job our government is doing. Only in submitting to the Lordship of Jesus Christ can we find true peace and joy.
ReplyDeleteYou have chosen poorly my son...
ReplyDeleteMaybe its this template, maybe its the widgets contained within it but regardless of the actual cause - this site is painfully slow to even scroll the page and so, regardless of the editorial content, is relegated to obscurity.
Alas, you have chosen glitz and glamour over function and assessability much in the same way societies have chosen idols of self importance and self indulgence over God and righteousness. A sad day in our existence or just an expected behavior in a preordained prophecy?
Of course I can only relate this within the limitations of my perceptions...
The scriptures state: "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent" - Revelation 3:19.
ReplyDeleteIn light of this God-given doctrine, and your very well written rebuke, I shall earnestly endeavor to speed up this page for the benefit of His readership....
