America Divided, 2024

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Culture, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 3, 2024 by paulthepoke

Luke 11:17 But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls.”

Let’s look at a couple of words in the quote from Jesus.

Divided or διαμερίζω/diamerizó: to distribute, to divide. It means to divide into parts (plural), not necessarily half; to cut into pieces. Look at the landscape of America with special interests, politics, culture, race, economics, gender, religion and on and on…

Desolation or ἐρημόω/erémoó: to desolate. The word can also mean destroyed or laid waste; stripped of treasures.

This is the future of America if we do not return to the United States of America.

The legitimacy of our elections is being called into question. We have dead people voting, more votes than registered voters in some precincts, illegal aliens voting, and on and on… We have even lost the ability to count in a timely manner.

Powerful, rich forces are willing to bribe and manipulate political candidates. Arizona Republican Party chair Jeff DeWit has since resigned his position. Caution, adult language in the conversation below.

As a country, we have our tentacles in war all around the planet: Russia and Ukraine, The Red Sea with the Iranian proxy the Houthis, Israel and Hamas and likely soon to be another Iranian proxy Hezbollah. All the while, things are heating up in the Far East with China in the Taiwan Strait. North Korea continues to escalate its posture towards South Korea, Japan, and the United States. And now, 3 service members were killed near the Syrian border.

And we have strife at home on our southern border. We have a sitting president whose policy has allowed upwards of an estimated 6-10 million people into our country unchecked with significant financial and material support. At the same time, this government is not protecting or tending to our own citizens.

A couple of days later… Coincidence??? Speculation on my, probably not.

I recommend prayer, grace, forgiveness, kindness and unity in Jesus.

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Trend Update: Fatah Declares “Day of Rage”, July 2017

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

July 18, 2017: The Palestinian Fatah party is calling for a “Day of Rage”. The reason…metal detectors have been placed to gain access to the Temple Mount. This marks the third day the metal detectors have been in use. Israel has increased security measures in Jerusalem and around the Temple Mount in response to the terrorist shootings and killings that occurred on the Temple Mount.

Violence increased over night in East Jerusalem and the Old City. The combatants threw rocks and Molotov cocktails at the police. Roads were blocked. The Palestinian Red Crescent stated 15 were injured.

Fatah Central Committee Member Jamal Muhaisen has issued the following statement. “What is happening in Jerusalem today is aimed at attacking the al-Aksa Mosque.”

Fatah has declared the metal detectors to be “terrorist procedures”.

If I understand the Apostle Paul correctly, there would be no need for metal detectors or laws if people would exhibit characteristics of love.

1 Timothy 1:9 …understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers…
