Reflections on Elections this Easter Sunday
Today is Easter Sunday which drums up for me more of a celebration of the birth of Christ than an Easter egg hunt and chocolate rabbits, although I certainly love the song “Here comes Peter Cotton Tail hopping down the bunny trail”, coloring easter eggs and eating chocolate made bunnies.
I woke up with so much running through my head reflecting on my dreams of the night and our state as a Union and Nation. Indeed, our state of the union is in a very perilous time. I’ve often reflected upon my own state as perilous at times, especially over the last 20 years.
This particular blog piece I am dedicating to the state-of-the-kingdom of the United States of America. So if you’re turned off by that you can quit reading right now. It’s Easter Sunday and this is my blog. (Smile)
Thy Kingdom Come Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. I’ve mentioned before that Jesus Christ was referred to in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States in form as our “Creator” and as “Lord” and in America when we read the Bible and say that prayer we are definitely in the state of the union or kingdom.
While we separate church and state, we recognize the state of the union affects all churches; as do all churches affect the state of the union: the common denominator being, “We the People” in the order (or business) of forming a more perfect union. It doesn’t have to be a particular denomination, rather a more perfect way in which to live.
The test of a population that allows elections by citizens is the leaders they choose, and then the leaders of the population serve as a testimony of the Nation. I recently watched Nelson Mandela a Long Walk to Freedom and was especially moved at the end where as he walked through a field of grass with children as he reflected that hatred was taught, no one came into this life knowing how to hate but that love was the more natural way of the heart. That was just beautiful I thought as are the words of our first President G. Washington.
At this time in our history I think it very important to reflect upon the intently concerned and wise words of President George Washington, when it comes to the protections and defense of our Nation; “I am sure there never was a people, who had more reason to acknowledge a divine interposition in their affairs, than those of the United States; and I should be pained to believe, that they have forgotten that agency, which was so often manifested during our revolution, or that they failed to consider the omnipotence of that God, who is alone able to protect them.”
President Washington just told us that God is very capable of protecting us, but he’s also very capable in destroying us from off the face of the Earth. The benevolent protections afforded us in calming an enemy’s heart, or confusing an enemies mind, or changing enemy’s plans resides in the spirit and intelligence of God given to men on Earth. That is the first line of defense and the only one necessary if we here at home choose wisely.
Who can say we haven’t seen the blessings of protections of the United States of America in our history with the intelligence given to us if one were to consider just for a moment the inventions coming out of the United States of America we so humbly present to the world as evidence? Yet still we have enemies.
There is no one interpretation of scripture and certainly no scripture worth anything unless we employ it in our own lives both individually and collectively at different times and also at the same time. Consider the scripture with the meanings I have inserted parenthetically if you will to give these words directions we can employ together collectively as it really brings the message home.
Micah ch: 4 Vs. 10 Now also many nations are gathered against thee (United States of America), that say, Let her be defiled (Let us corrupt the U.S.A. from within domestically with their own leader who isn’t qualified by their own Constitution, whom we will plant within the U.S.A. by controlling the media and the money), and let our eye look (Let us take the United States and divide her as the spoils of war) upon Zion (Zion= America’s Union, strength, or oneness of heart).
Vs. 12 But they know not the thoughts of the Lord, neither understand they his counsel; for he shall gather them (God will gather the Patriots of the Union in America) as the sheaves into the floor.
Vs. 13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion( Relatives or Patriots of the Union) : for I will make thine horn (Leader) iron ( stronger than any metal), and I will make thy hoofs (strength, battle plans, speed, and cause) brass (tempered as in a fiery furnace and polished metal that is very strong): and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their grain unto the Lord ( I will turn to you America and save you, turning your enemies plans upon their own head), and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.”
End of verse 9, “..,there the Lord shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.”
Can a nation survive itself when the leaders that are chosen by the populous reflect such horrible judgment? Oh how the population of South Africa celebrated as they cast their ballots, one person one vote and the equality of man was known.
So what happens when the people you vote for are corrupt on the inside domestically, and the corruption is protected by the press? Well, that’s a situation I’ll say where there is almost no way out. I say almost because God is incredible at what he is able to do alone.
As instruments in the hand of God, men become more than ordinary men, taking on the strength of lions, the intelligence of Einstein, even the speed of time lapse photography.
Yes, the majority of South Africa was black and the rule of the “whites” was cast down. Mandela had given the ‘Whites’ nothing in return for their releasing him from prison, and at the same time offered the freedom of voting to all. Indeed Nelson Mandela went from Prison to President because of principles he stood firm upon.
What happens though when the people choose leaders that are corrupt like Barack Obama? What happens in essence when the mechanism called “an election” is rigged by corruption and deceit of the candidate himself and then those in power call that, as Sen. Mike Lee recently did, a situation we must avoid in the future; like some broken window rather than calling for justice in a new election?
This is America we don’t have to accept a God-damned corrupt election! Our Constitution provides the ways and means of which to deal with such Sen. Mike Lee, when candidates shall fail to qualify even in the Office of the President. It’s your duty in office to seek justice, preserve the Constitution, and employ it to your fullest potential. So take your Sheriff Joe pink panties off and put on your big boy shorts and call for hearings. Use your bully pulpit to save our Nation. That is the way I use mine running for Office and I’m not even elected.
As Judge Napolitano says in a 5 minute speech that got him fired on Fox, what if?
