WE ARE WITNESSING THE PLANNED DESTRUCTION OF WESTERN SOCIETY

If we look at what is happening to our world today with nothing but human understanding, then we are never going to get the full picture.  Sure, we will be able to point to parts of it, and we could probably do so with a great deal of clarity. But no matter how clearly we see the parts, we will never be able to integrate them – at least, not without going full ‘conspiracy theory,’ which is why accusing people of being a conspiracy theorist is so effective at discrediting them.

Time for a Change

To Those Still Following Me:

First, let me start by telling you that I appreciate the fact that you are still there.  I honestly do not understand why you’re still there.  I mean that, sincerely.

A Quick Update

To Those Who Still Follow Me;

Apparently, I am not going to be able to make the changes to my blogging that I had hoped to make.  I still want to add video clips and podcasts to my blogging efforts, but it is going to have to wait until some things change in my world.  As of this moment, I simply do not have the technical support structure necessary to make the things I want to do into a reality.

And So We’ll Begin

I have several blog pages. In the beginning, the idea was to use each one to focus on a specific area of interest, or related subjects. One blog was focused on Natural Law and the principles of liberty as the American Founders understood them. Another blog was supposed to focus on Scripture, and Biblical topics. A third blog was meant to focus on applying the principles from the first two blogs to the events of the day: a Scripture-based political commentary, if you will. The hope was that, as the blogs grew, they would become repositories of information that others could use to help them better understand our world, and to then help others to do the same. Unfortunately, I never put in the time and effort necessary to bring the idea to fruition. Well, that changes now.

We’ve Lost Another Star

It is with great remorse that I announce the passing of Rush Limbaugh. 

OTRTD sends out its heart-felt condolences and prayers to the Limbaugh family.

Time To Make Some Major Changes???

I have tried to write this post several times and every draft sounded to me like I was being self-serving.  I want to learn how to serve others rather than myself.  I know that requires humility, true humility.  I’m just not sure I even know what that is anymore, so, I decided to just write this as matter-of-factly as I can and pray that it comes off sounding like something less than a humble brag.  I hope it works.

A Worthwhile Discussion

I know I have been away from this blog for a while, but I have been waiting on the Lord.  I’ll return soon, but not until I know it is time.  Until then, here is a video of a very worth-while discussion.  I hope you will make time to watch it.  It is far better, and far more timely than anything I know of on TV.  Oh, for what it’s worth, this is about the nature of evil — especially as it applies to our modern society and times.

A Sensitive Discussion About The Catholic Church

I had a pleasant discussion with one of my readers on The Road To Concord this week.  It was about the Catholic teaching that it is the true church of Christ, as established in Matthew 16:18-19.  I was raised Catholic, so I know this is a very sensitive issue for many in the Catholic church.  None the less, I would like to address the topic, and to offer some gentle correction to those who may believe the Catholic teaching.  But first, I want to say that what follows is in no way meant to be read as a condemnation, or judgment or rebuke.  I offer my words out of an agape love, and I hope hope that they will be received that way.

Talk Radio For Christians!

I would like to introduce you to the only person I know left on radio who I will still listen to for wisdom and guidance.  There may be others, but this man is the only person I know who is speaking truth without holding back.  What’s more, I consider him to be my superior in many ways.  He knows Scripture as well or better than I do.  He knows as much or more history and philosophy than I do.  And he is as rational and rooted in logic as I am.  Frankly, he is the type of man I hope to be if and when I ever grow up.  So, if you find value in my blogging, I ask you to take time to watch this video of Steve Deace talking about the events in D.C. this past Jan 6 (If you ever take my advice, do so now and watch this one — it is the best I’ve ever seen).

 

Seizing The Third Rail Of Prophecy: The Rapture!

The rapture is one of the most hotly debated aspects of the Lord’s Prophetic Word.  There are many different views of what it is and when it will happen, and I happen to find this fact to be deeply unsettling.  If believers would simply learn to read the Scriptures and let the Lord’s Word testify for itself, there would be little room for debate.  Why?  Because the Scriptures are actually pretty clear as to when the rapture happens.  The only reason there is debate is because too many believers keep trying to force the teachings of men on top of the Lord’s Word (see, ‘the man of lawlessness’).  I know that this will be difficult for many, but, if you will try to erase everything you have learned about the rapture and give me a few minutes of your time, I think I can actually prove this to you.  Will you do that?  Will you give me your sincere, open-minded attention long enough for me to make my case?  If so, then I invite you to keep reading.  Otherwise, I humbly beg that we part in peace now, lest we cause an unnecessary rift in the Body of Christ.
