Just thinking aloud . . .

These are special times that we're living in right now. But because we're actually in it we don't really appreciate it as someone, for example, from the future who would point to our time and say, "Wow, that was when it all started to happen!" It would all be so totally clear.

Here's what I'm thinking: I remember when President Trump declared that the attack on America through the weaponized Wuhan Flu was more terrible that the attack on America at the time of Pearl Harbor. It sounds like rhetoric or hyperbole but, what if it was just a bald statement of fact? When we look at the results of the world-wide virus (Covid19) it caused a huge amount of ruckus. Travel bans were put in place, lockdowns were effected, emergency powers were invoked at both Federal and State levels, Masks were mandated as a precursor to mandatory vaccines and voting laws were changed (without due process) that increased the chance of fraud to a significant degree. 

I am sure that there was a significant level of fraud at the time of the mid-term elections. I'm talking about 2018 here. I was taking part in canvassing by joining my local GOP and going house to house in Springfield MO, even though I'm not an American citizen and can't vote. I am, however, a legal alien and I love this country as you will know if you've read any of my earlier blogs. There is an astonishing amount of personal freedom in the USA that I didn't really appreciate until we actually came to live here about 4 years ago. I'm not just talking about the right to bear arms. I think a lot of Americans need to visit other countries to get a better grasp of just how great this country actually is; even now, in spite of what has happened this year.

This country was stolen in the last election which is why I get a little bit mad when I hear of politicians talking about 2022 and 2024. The 'insurrection' of January 6th shut the door on voter fraud investigations but couldn't stop them completely although every single one has faced obfuscation and delays.

It seems that Trump was well aware of voter fraud in 2018. As I said I was taking part in Canvassing and I was really surprised that there was no debriefing after all that canvassing, from the GOP, about the reasons why the House was lost. 

So, what if there were actual consequences, that directly resulted from that comment, that the attack on America through that bio-weapon was an actual attack that invoked emergency powers - like devolution? This would make sense of the prophecy from Kim Clement about this being the time of 2 Presidents. The real one that is hidden, and the fake one that is visible. The real result couldn't be enforced at the time of the transfer of power on January 20th due to the result being in dispute and the very real possibility of riots (like those that occurred throughout the summer of 2020 - the 'peaceful' protests) that could have led to a civil war. If America had become embroiled in staged riots and this had gotten out of control it could become something that couldn't be controlled - like a forest fire. 

This meant that the fake administration and white house has been on display since 2020. A little bit like satan himself taking over the reins of leadership directly in the last place on this planet where there is a semblance of true freedom.

In earlier times the evil was always there but it was in the background and hidden. Now, it is center-stage and abundantly visible to anyone who is looking. That is quite a huge difference. You would think that what happened in Afghanistan would encourage the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) to go right ahead and attack Taiwan. It is interesting that the 'outgoing' Administration made a concrete pact with Taiwan while they were still in power.

The riots and possible civil war that could have taken place back in January if the electoral results had been challenged leading to an unprecedented situation that would be potentially difficult to control have now changed. There would be many who would heave a sigh of relief if the present administration were to be seriously challenged now. 'We the people' would be on the side of that as well as a significant number of people worldwide who have looked to America as a source of hope.

This is the singular good thing that has happened from the failed withdrawal from Afghanistan: that everyone can see that the present administration in the white house is corrupt, illegitimate and (astonishingly) incompetent.

I can't help drawing comparisons with the 'Berlin wall' that came down in 1989. I had taken part in rallies denouncing the Wall with Hyo-Jin Moon (eldest son of Rev. Sun Myung Moon). I never thought that it could come down so naturally and easily. I actually spent Christmas with an East German family in 1989 that I had met while operating a Jewelry Stand (as a means of fundraising for our church). It was amazing to be there in Chemnitz (formerly Karl Marx Stadt) right on the border with Czech Republic. The people started to knock down the wall, and no-one stopped them.

We have become so accustomed to living under satan's dominion. Just like the East Germans became accustomed to living under the GDR (German Democratic Republic ! ! !) With the wall made to keep people in. The Founding Fathers made this Nation to be one centered upon God, with a government of, by and for the people. It is surprising that it has endured for so long. Now all Americans (or, at least, a significant, critical number) are starting to appreciate how important this nation is. And that if this nation is lost, then it is very serious for the entire world. 

However, this nation cannot just be returned to 'we the people' if we are not ready to appreciate and receive it. Just as Rev. Moon brought to the fore-front the element of the human portion of responsibility (with which even God cannot interfere: because we are created - unlike all other  creation - in the direct image of God) we have to become made anew by engaging with the thought and teaching that has been brought by the Lord of the Second Coming. As you know, Jesus lamented that he couldn't speak the plain truth but had to use parables and inference. 

Jesus said, I have come to cast fire on the earth and wish that it were already kindled. (Luke 12:49 - 'Fire' meaning God's Word) Jesus also said, I have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. A little later he said, I have been speaking to you figuratively but the time is coming when I will no longer speak to you figuratively, but speak plainly to you of the Father (God). John 16. He was, of course, speaking about the time of the Second Coming. Which, if you've been paying attention, will know took place shortly after WW1

Hoping that you'll take these eschatological signs seriously and strive to get up to speed with being in alignment with God. When all is said and done that is the only thing that really matters.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this matter, thank You for reading my 'thinking aloud'.
