Last evening I pulled the warm, down comforter up over my shoulders and lay in bed thinking about an editorial piece I just read from one of Substack’s more expressive dissident writers, its derisory tone bristling as usual from one so acquainted with the nefarious and subversive affairs of men.
The Stack, affectionately called, one of the few remaining holdouts of our natural right to speak freely, where I moved to last year after Medium lost me, is where I turn daily, not only to express mine own thoughts and views, but where I nestle in to read the persuasive arguments and eloquent tales of others.
Good Citizen, a self-avowed dreamer, decries the pervasive idiocracy without borders and the official hegemony of the American Empire under the dictates of the international banking cartel, and yearns for sanity… “the new frontiers still hold promise, but the excuses of escaping the Empire’s ghosts are over.” The article is compelling, even as it rings with futility.
I’ve been on stage as a writer for less than a year, though a heavy reader and researcher on topics of interest to me for going on twenty. After the exercise of writing my unpublished memoir touched on here and purged from Medium for this piece, I willingly join the dissident voices exposing the dark, sinister forces of evil spreading like wildfire across our world, yet with an angle that ought to bring hope not only alarm.
Too many influential, celebrated authors draw a following using their skill to interpret the age we live in based on historical analysis, perceptive reality, satirical profiling, oracular prognosis, or what have you. I find myself in a much more marginal position. I interpret events and reality in accordance with the Blessed and Only Potentate who made all things and knows the thoughts and intents of the heart of men. He, who gave us in writing what was, and is, and is to come, who has not failed to accomplish what is good in his sight and to bring to pass promises “…to them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life.”
It seems many Good People dream of a world of peace and sanity, allowing for mankind to live as he chooses, provided he harms no one or their property, but which is continually out of reach. Evil men rise to the top and the good citizen must remain in a state of manipulation.
“The hidden hands of manipulation have been at it for centuries with no plans to stop,” the author of this piece laments.
Good People, the hidden hands of manipulation have been at it since the very beginning when man was put here on the earth. Where is it given that we should have perfect peace, beauty, love and immortality except in the one Book that most people seem to have forgotten about? Until Christ returns to set up his kingdom and destroy his enemies, you will see perpetual death and corruption.
If the world at large has forgotten Him, why are we so surprised at the condition it’s in? And if one rejects Him to enjoy for a season the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, why should He interfere to force man’s will?
“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” (1 Jn 2:17 kjv)
If it’s religion that has good people turned off, I’m with you. I hate it myself. I hate all things mystical, magical, superstitious, ritualistic, legalistic, hypocritical, blind faith. If you’re into any of that, you can have it. I seek knowledge of the truth received from Him who gave us life, written in a Book I can test and examine for its veracity, not from a religious system with priests, prophets and popes who wish to be venerated but sin like the rest of us.
And no wonder. Christ came into a world and among a people whose leaders were the epitome of religious superstition and legalism. The very same nature in those who set themselves up to rule over others today. Their religion is Luciferian and Satanic. Their whole law is do what thou wilt whilst setting the parameters for Good People to do as they’re told.
The Pharisaic Jews and Sadducees of Jesus’ day, just like non-semitic Jewry today, disputed with Him about their legit claim as Abraham’s descendants and therefore rightful heirs of the Kingdom and “royal priests of the New World Order”:
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham. But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me (note: BINOs — bibles in name only — have removed “for I proceeded forth and came from God,” a reference to Christ’s deity).
Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. (Jn 8: 31-44 kjv)
There isn’t your truth and my truth, agreeing to disagree on what truth is. There is only God’s preserved, infallible Word to mankind as a light that shineth out of darkness. And then there is The Matrix, this present, evil world operating all around us. This is where everyone lives who considers life outside Christ.
WINNING!
Yes. Winning is where we will be if we obey the truth. Christ left the earth the first time two thousand years ago and promised he would return. In fact, for every passage written about his first coming, there are ten times more about his second.
Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” (Acts 1:11 kjv)
Christ came as a suffering servant the first time to fulfil all that was written of him, over 300 prophecies from the Old Testament, demonstrating by fulfilling every one during his earthly ministry to Israel, that he came from his Father in heaven. Genesis through Revelation is about Christ. He made the world, came into it fully man and fully God, and will, at the appointed time, complete his marvelous work and rest.
Today, while we currently remain in the dispensation of the grace of God, we are reminded to have this mind of Christ:
If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. (This is a tall order. I should know.)
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the (biblical) earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. (Phil 2:1-11 kjv)
My former husband recently chided me about “preaching to the choir” in my posts. He reads them, so obviously I am not. He is not in the so-called choir and many of my readers likely are not either. But, Good People, I wish that you were. Not in the choir, but in Christ. What could happen in an instant will last eternally, and permit you to enter the gates of what you cannot even dream about:
But as it is written, For eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. (1 Cor 2:9, 1 Cor 15:1-6 kjv)
That dream of living in a world of sanity, where absurdities are unknown, back to the proverbial Garden of Eden where God intended man to live in obedience to his righteousness, is offered to us freely. This world can never be taken back by Good People. Because, honestly, we’re not all that good.
“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” (Rom 3:10-12 kjv)
"The world we are allowing to be created for our children may well be a world not worth living in. The reality is that this world does not have to be this way at all. It does not have to be heading in the direction it is heading. People do not have to live in a never-ending sea of self-generating debt. Wars do not have to be fought, and children do not have to starve." – Max Igan
Max, you’re a decent soul. My ex-husband is a decent soul. Good Citizens are decent people. But that won’t cut it. The reality is, this present world is this way because of our disobedience to God’s perfect righteousness. We really don’t even know what that looks like. Those who lived during Christ’s first coming saw it. The only way we can be approved by God today is to be found in Christ by believing the gospel. We have God’s grace after that to come unto the knowledge of the truth by studying his word. We will err, but God is faithful and will make a way of escape from all temptation if we walk in the spirit and not in the flesh.
To reject so great a salvation is to accept Plan H.
Satan and his angels are in that plan now. You don’t have to be. They are behind the plot to bring the world into chaos, using “the chosen people” who have sold their souls to Lucifer, wittingly and unwittingly, who will as usual have a document ready, to be signed by all the leaders in the world for that long, sought after “peace”.
Ordo ab Chao… don’t-cha know.
Satan can create nothing. He can only counterfeit what God is doing. And he will deceive the whole earth mimicking what was written in Scripture, and also the very elect if it were possible. And the world will fall for it. I don’t intend to be here for that revelation. I’m in Plan A… Absent when all this takes place; caught up to be with my Lord, who will then unleash an earthly terror the world has never known.
I would that you would join me in that Plan. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Rev. 19:20, 20:10, 20:14-15, 21:8 kjv)
All Scripture references are from the 1611 Authorized King James Bible.
I am a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work on the cross on Golgotha's hill - His resurrection gives us the VICTORY over DEATH and the GRAVE!! Our flesh will DIE but our spirit LIVES FOREVER - either in BLISS with our Everlasting Creator and His angels or in TORMENT with Lucifer and his demonic minions.
Thank you, Dawn, for a probing, honest sharing of the Gospel of Jesus Christ the Lord.....I will buy you a "cup of coffee" on this platform if you have that feature enabled.
Otherwise, I will "stay tuned" for future essays, opines and sharings from you.
Dawn, I caught your response to CJ Hopkins. Would that more would have “ears to hear” the good news of Christ. Please check out Joshua Charles. ✝️🙏🏻Thank you for your work.
