I’ve been thinking about this for several years, about the possibility of some malevolent force influencing the thoughts and actions of those who are in denial or are unaware that such a force can/could exist….particularly those with great influence and who wield power.

It seems the chasm of disagreement between the America First patriots and the American Marxists on the direction this nation and society are heading is irreconcilable….I’m 63, I can’t remember this level of political contentiousness, not even during the throes of civil unrest during the 60’s and early 70’s. Even during the tumultuous fight for civil rights and the protests to end the Vietnam war I think most Americans who were old enough to understand what was going on knew there would be better days ahead if we could keep the nation from imploding…..and things did get better in the ensuing decades but what’s happening now seems different.

What’s happening now is difficult to pinpoint and explain, it’s almost like everything that made the US the most respected and admired nation for over 100 years is under attack and unraveling from some nefarious external influence…or maybe its a nefarious internal influence that has captured the hearts and minds of tens of millions of Americans who are in reality unaware they are a part of this evil force because they have chosen to deny its existence.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

There’s a price to pay for sin….yea, the wages of sin is death!
