I decided to bring this blog I wrote right after the 2016 election, back into focus since what is going on right now in our country is reflected in it. This means that over the past eight years, but more discerning of the last four of them, there seams to be no change both in our political indulgence and in the way many of today’s churches focus on the evils afoot.
Nov. 13, 2016
[As we try to come down out of the ceiling tiles after the past 18 or so months of being rallied on a daily dose of media narratives to form our opinions and the votes we just cast, there is something to be learned. While there are allocations of deviant-minded individuals mustering to destroy the very communities they live and work in, many have decided to have a more silent perspective about what just happened on Nov. 8, 2016.
Let’s first discuss this evil mannerism being used today to promote the way in which we as a nation will determine our future. It is being done by something that separates us from our past in that we are now purposely driven to disperse ourselves into factions emotionally biased toward each other. Meaning that each cultural, ethnic, or racial variant is being provoked into today’s civil anxiety over issues commonly relevant to everyone who lives here.
This anxiety is being created through social media by news outlets using a theoretical proposition that says they can steer the masses to do as they want by using biased narratives. If anyone thinks that the hate and discontent apparent in the rioting activities of late and those of the past 18-24 months is just a normal response to an indifference of political opinion, they are badly mistaken.
Evil takes no prisoners, nor does it ever agree with the proponents of good. What we are seeing is a disdained belief that there is another part to America’s soul and that it chooses to lend an opportunity to a political indigents who are bent on its destruction. That statement is not aimed at smearing President-elect Trump’s victory but rather at commenting on the disparity that is clearly being promoted in this nation by the media.
Another thing to see is while many in the Church want to stand back and raise their hands and edify a victory there also needs to be a perspective flowing that says we have not yet won the hearts and minds of this nation. The thing that stands out in this after a flow of hate and discontent is that too many churches have been busy entertaining the masses rather than training them to have a consciousness of good and evil.
Now, it may be that every one of those who are protesting are not of even a minor cognoscente understanding of God and are just unbelievers lost and going to hell. Unfortunately, I don’t think that is the case, and if it is, then it even more reveals just how badly we, the Church, have been doing in our latter years. However, much of this reflects the cultural reconditioning of ministry that has been going on in many churches in America, where pew occupancy is biased toward appeasement.
One thing is for sure: when there is ignorance of what our enemy historically and biblically does, then there will be torrential uprisings of evil that will appear as good or even Godly. This means that many of these perpetrators of violence are being encouraged to see it as good and needed, and some see it as a God thing, having no remorse over what the outcome will be for themselves or others.
I am not saying that churches have trained anyone to do evil. It is just that when there is a voice that should speak the truth and doesn’t, it typically speaks of everyone as OK, and all is good to culturally appease them. The void left by no truth of the word being present will be filled by carnal-mindedness, which gives a place for the enemy to promote activity that otherwise would not easily occur.
All of this reflects what I have said before: that when churches work to bind congregants to themselves emotionally through entertaining the soul, they leave them open to spiritual influences they are unaware of. You may think I am belittling the Church by what I say. But I ask you: If the Church isn’t going to take a position against any evil workings of the enemy nor train up its masses to discern it, then who is?
Much of the prophecy of late has revealed that God is going to make a change in the heart of this nation, and it appears that elections help to assure that it occurs. Churches must align with the efforts of the Spirit of God in order to affect change in the souls of the masses. Even in the midst of violence, they must speak the truth.
Herein lies the focus of this blog, which is that many ministries and religious organizations are not calling for prayer at a time when it is desperately needed. There is also silence on social media waves by those who are the profiteers of the cultural trend that sweeps our churches. It seems as if fear of retribution is in accord in these entertaining environments, and the course of scripture that should be paramount to the enlightenment of good and evil is disdained.
If I am wrong, we should see as much an effort to quail the hate and discontent of this nation as there has been to appeal to those who are filled with it.]
