This has been a hard, or at least dramatic year.So much happening
The political map of the world changed, with the election of someone new in the US, the Brexit decision in England, the refusal to agree to a new path in Italy, leading to the prime minister resigning. A couple of leaders are in deep trouble in South America, and in South Korea...and the counter moves of globalists have increased.Watch the UN and the EU this next year. will they implode, or force their way to new strength? Terrifying really. The possibility of war with Russia, the overturning of standard diplomacy regarding Israel, the aceptance of waves of immigrants who have no intention of accepting the ways of their new homelands,the nightmare in Syria, and increasingy wild weather, everywhere on the planet. Death raised its head in other ways. So many left us, from famous entertainers, and the old US nemesis Castro, to favorite aunts and uncles and grandparents, and even, sadly some of our children,to a famous astronaut , to some of our oldest citizens WWII veterans, Holocaust survivors, Europeans who helped save Jews during that terrible time. I have said repeatedly, this was a year of truth. Jesus said, John 8:31 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word,you really are My disciples. 32You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”33“We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered Him, “and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can You say, ‘You will become free’? ” 34Jesus responded, “I assure you: Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 A slave does not remain in the household forever,but a son does remain forever.be 36Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you really will be free. We know now that the powers that be, from politicians to bankers to their helpers, social media and media in gerneal, are not on our side. My family noticed years ago that reporters no longer went to the site of a story, but instead stood in front of green screens, Then we noticed half the stories seemed to be product placement of some kind, and finally, this internal loop of shutting out anything other than the "story" the powers wanted told....of everything having a spin, (the Clinton administration of the past had spin doctors, they were experts at this, the media was not as kind to Bush, but have fallen into some sort of love fest with Obama's administration, to the point of marriages between white house staff and media managers and Ceos...) We shut out daily viewing of any major TV source of news years ago, Occasional forays into BBC land, etc. Tried to find raw stories on Reuters or API, though those are also now suspect. And none of it touches younger people, who almost excusively use the Internet or social media. The newspapers and major tv new organizations may be dead as far as actual reporting, being only infomation the government wants you to see.the business model may have also failed. So the back up plan is activated. anything that touches on government negatively is now to be considered hate speech, false news...It's in some of our latest legislation.Similar measures are in place in Germany and the UK. Expect more extreme measures than "facebook jail" to be attempted. And here we may also find out why "the polls were wrong." social media again, and tracking your posts your purchases, building demographic profiles that are then sold..not just to marketers, but to political groups, et..anyone who wants to find out what people think or do or buy. Having come up with a typical profile for a Clinton supporter or Trump supporter, this information was used to predict votes, I really feel the polling outfits have tried to outsmart the old system of talking to people, and that based on your support for...abortion rights, or gay marriage, or buying a certain kind of cellphone, who knows what they used...they expected a certain result Which tallied nicely with what one campaign wanted, and paid for, including trolls to shut down negative comments about the campaign, so the self feeding loop grew and grew. Strangely, the LA Times was on top of things.Right wing people reporting the same were dismissed. the sight of those huge rallies for Trump should have been a clue: instead news organizations tried to focus on fights, other troubles....obscuring the meaning of those huge numbers. And across the country, people of every color, every identity group..God I hope that term dies now, decided they wanted a real change,not Obama term 3. Evangelicals and some conservative Jews just never said a word and went and voted.So did people in the rust belt, and in the south,we were united in disgust and a desperate prayer for help I think God heard us, after all, He sets up kings and takes down kings..He allowed the lies to stand and let us all get to the polls peacefully...an amazing thing in itself. Anyone looking at the last eight years, and losses across the country for Democrats, should have been able to predict a Republican doing far better than what was being reported.Anyone ignoring things like the Amish coming out to vote, should have been aware. But it did not fit the narrative. If having your every moved tracked, and having some marketing company or government agency decide they know you, how to manipulate you, and are sure they have all these demographics pinned down to a surety doesn;t scare the hell out of you,it should. Having failed to bring the US down entirely ( though God only knows what disasters or attempted disasters await us), the globalists have gone on to one of their most desired objectives..delivering Israel up to her enemies like a piece of ripe fruit..I do expect the French peace initiative to be used for a UN push to declare a Palestinian state, and most of Israel simply occupation of said state, and they may announce the decision on Jan 20 to interfere with the Trump inauguration, This has been tried before...releasing the Iranian hostages the day Reagan was inaugurated. This further attempt to placate the radical elements of Islam, and drive every Jew off the planet, will fail, I am assured of this through the word of God. But division of the land may bring down on us some truly terrible times,those birth pangs of the final times may speed up...... To stand as a friend of Israel, to limit or throw out the UN, to stop this push towards disastrous war instead of peace, may be why we have the strangest of all governmental change...President and congress, unlooked for by so much of the intelligentsia, but welcomed by regular people. Stength of military and finace and other wealth will be needed. So here's your truth of the year. Lies uncovered ( thank you hackers leakers and Wikileaks,) death comes to us all.. regardless of position power talent or wealth, God's will is irrevocable,, we humans can rail against it, but we are not able to change it....only our attitude to God. Every day that you have is precious,every person you love is precious, and in spite of deeply dividing identy politics, maybe more of us want the same thing than we imagined. We don;t have to be silly sheep. There is a shepard who guaranteed you you comfort, who told you if you found the truth you would be truly free. and who died to give that to you. |
