The Beginning of Woes

In an article posted over at American Vision, Joel McDurmon related the following:

At a conference last spring I sat on the speakers’ panel for Q&A from the audience. Unscripted Q&A is one of my favorite moments at conferences—you never know what’s coming, exactly. During what followed someone asked (paraphrasing), “At what point did things go wrong in America?” He certainly had in mind the slide into tyranny we have experienced since our beloved founders. My response, I think, shocked some.

How would you answer that question? When the Supreme Court allowed abortion under Roe v. Wade 1973)? When the Supreme Court banned prayer (Engel v. Vitale, 1962) & Scripture (Abinton County School District v. Schempp, 1963) from the public schools? Maybe when they stopped producing the Andy Griffith show?

Here is McDurmon's answer -- and for the record, I agree with him:

Since we had just been discussing the issue of Lincoln and States’ rights in passing, the anticipated answer was “The Civil War.” I went back even further to the first great advance of tyranny: “The Constitutional Convention.”
There were a couple head nods (surely these had read something like Gary North’s Political Polytheism), but for the most part there was silence with several looks of surprise.

What If . . . ?

It may come as a surprise to some that a guy who authors a blog called WARSKYL does not support the military industrial complex and the USA's international military adventures. Nonetheless, it is true.

Here is Ron Paul speaking as a lone voice of reason in Congress:

Judgment on America? - 6

This is the final video in the sped-up version of Lindsey Williams' presentation.

I hope to post a followup commentary on these videos within the next week.

Also, there are certain interpretations and opinions expressed by Lindsey Williams that I emphatically DO NOT ENDORSE. Among them are his views on the inspiration and inerrancy of the King James Version; the idea that certain Bible prophecies refer specifically to America; the idea that the elite can control the weather (the jury's still out on that one); the cultic view that the U.S. Constitution is an inspired scripture; etc.

Are You a Judeo-Christian?

A couple of months ago, I was invited to a rally where a conservative candidate for office gave a campaign speech. The man has a good reputation as a Christian believer and an honest businessman.

During his speech, he made a statement that I have commonly heard among conservative politicians. He said that he stood for the "Judeo-Christian" values on which this country was founded.

I guess people have heard the phrase often enough that they do not question its meaning. What are Judeo-Christian values?

I guess some might say that they are values that come out of both the New Testament (Christian) and the Old Testament (Judaic). But that would be redundant, for the Christian Bible contains both Old and New Testaments.

So, why not just say "Christian values"?

Perhaps because the public-at-large would view such a claim as too narrow? Would it be political suicide to identify one's agenda with the kingship of Christ?

Perhaps because the politician does not want to offend the small but influential Jewish portion of the electorate? Would it be political suicide to exclude adherents to Judaism from one's moral agenda?

As an effort at inclusiveness, references to America's "Judeo-Christian roots" implies a strong Jewish influence in the foundation of the nation's political systems. Just how many colonies were explicitly (or even implicitly) Jewish at the time of the War for Independence?

Moreover, modern Judaism follows the same Rabbinic tradition of which the Pharisees comprised an integral part. What did Jesus have to say about their "Judeo" values? (see Matthew 23)

It seems incongruous to me that a Sunday School class, on the one hand, has spent a year studying the Apostle Paul's condemnation of Judaized Christianity in the book of Galatians, while on the other hand, the majority of the class supports a candidate who openly advocates a Judeo-Christian agenda.

It seems such a small compromise for a Christian candidate to use an inclusive term like "Judeo-Christian" values. But if that candidate cannot bear the reproach of Christ in his candidacy, he has opened to door to bigger compromises once he takes office.

If a man cannot be elected without making such compromises, then so be it. Let him take his stand, and let the electorate condemn themselves before God.

But a candidate who blurs his Christianity from the start does not recommend himself to me. I see such candidates as simply one facet of God's judgment upon this nation.

Judgment on America? - 5

One of the signs Lindsey Williams in his January videos said to watch for was the number of bank closings. He said that the insider plan is that withing 2 years, 9 banks will end up in control of all banking in the U.S.

Here is the site where the FDIC lists all banks that have failed since the year 2000. Scan down the page to see how many failures there were from 2000 to 20009 compared to this year. FAILED BANK LIST

Here is the next video in the series:

Judgment on America? - 4

Here is the next video in the series by Lindsey Williams.

A recent article by Gary North underscores the fact that insiders control the actions of the civil government from behind the scenes:

So, here we are again, with a banking reform
plan in front of Congress. If this bill passes, new
power will be given to the Federal Reserve System.
But wait! Wasn't the Federal Reserve System set up
in 1914 as the institution that would end recessions
as bad as the "bankers' panic" of 1907? Wasn't it
also given the authority to establish a stable
dollar? Then why have we had so many recessions?
Why has the dollar declined by 95%?

Every reform gives us more of the same. Every
reform promises to save capitalism from itself. It
then transfers more power to the Treasury
Department, which in 2008 became widely known as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs.
