Prompted by this x.com post from General Flynn.
People have been lied to by the institutions they were brought up to believe were trustworthy. These liars are VERY skilled at deception. I am angry at the liars, not the ones who were suckered in because they believed the people they were taught to believe.
Some people are very afraid of losing their civil rights, because they have been told they will lose their rights. Someone I know said, “I am afraid of you (the collective you – Trump supporters) because we do not share the same morals.” They are afraid of Nazis and tyrants, the bogeyman that Trump supporters were painted to be. But there are two possiblities.
1) Trump supporters ARE the Nazis and tyrants as they have been painted to be, or
2) You were LIED TO about Trump and his supporters.
Obvioiusly, since I am a Trump supporter and not a Nazi or a tyrant, I do not agree with the first option but the second. When I mentioned this, they said, “I agree you are not a Nazi, but you believe a lie about Trump, that he isn’t a Nazi. Wait till he shows his true colors.”
Why doesn’t the thought ever dawn on them that they are the ones believing a lie? It’s always the other guy.
I just said, “If anyone ever comes to take your rights away, call me, and I will fight for you.”
“But you won’t fight for my right to an abortion.”
No, I won’t. Your ‘right’ ends when it infringes on the rights of another. Every human being has the right to life, not only enshrined in the Constitution, but in the Bible. And you cannot end my life or anyone else’s just because you want the ‘right’ to end it.
The Southern slave owners did not have the right to enslave just because losing the Civil War meant they would lose the ‘right’ or the convenience to keep slaves. Alternatives to abortion exist (hello, birth control, or how about the biblical wisdom to promote a healthy society, abstinance out of wedlock).
But I will keep praying for your deliverance from lies, and their terrible and destructive fruit, fear. #FearNot

Everytime I hear the leftists, I am just reminded of Leviticus 19.14 “Do not curse the deaf or put a stumbling block in front of the blind, but fear your God. I am the LORD.” I just wonder if there are some areas of my life where I am that blind and I pray that God shed His light on it.
There is a veil on the whole society today; it’s very scary. But God is Love and God is Light!
