The Sifting

-

 Jesus tells a parable about the wheat and the tares.  This is what I believe is occurring in the church today. To the charlatans in the Word of Faith crowd, the Prosperity preachers, and the Seeker Sensitive types we can add The Woke, the Critical Theory folks. These have snared many a gullible and undiscerning person. People who may carry a Bible but have never read it in context. We see churches ordaining women, accepting the LGBTQ crowd, the poor, misguided 'Trans' people and calling it all good, completely ignoring the Bible teachings on these and other issues. We see the Gospel twisted and perverted completely out of true for the sake of feelings. The Bible contains hard truths. In this age of 'nice', hard truths are considered unloving. Never mind that they are condemning the lost to damnation. There are churches who deny the existence of Hell because a "loving god would never ...". So to the Nation being under God's Judgement we can add a great sifting of the church. Ware the false profits and teachers. Don't be led astray and don't be afraid to call them out. Remember Jesus' warning in Matthew 7:21-23.

Rather, trust in God and His ways.  Ramble Ends.

 Leftists want to build a Utopia. One where everything is 'Fair', whatever that means to them. Everyone makes the same, and all have housing, food, medical care, etc. A benevolent National Government doles out everything and we all live happily ever after. Unfortunately, it NEVER works out that way. It can work for a few years and then it crashes. Why? Human Nature. The mistake so many Leftists make, likely because they weren't taught it in the propaganda mills we call Education, is that Socialism pretty much always fails. Look at the Soviet Union, which was already in trouble by the time Stalin died. For a more recent example, look to Venezuela. It was a wealthy Nation at one time, rich in oil resources, and had a growing and thriving middle class. Things were good. Then, along comes Hugo Chavez, a Socialist, who convinced everyone that he could make it better! That everyone deserved a piece of the pie! These people never heard former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's...
