Major
policies
of liberals are
contrary
to Scripture and
have
the devil as their author.
[pardon the different size fonts: that is Blogger's fault, though I certainly have mine] While it is easy to focus on personalities and daily events in the on-going culture war, the larger picture is that this is a spiritual war in which liberals and the lost are simply proxy servants for the devil. Who, to varying degrees, uses these servant to “progressively” transform the world into an alternative world order of perversions of all that God has ordained.
Thus
the real reason for liberal's attack on evangelicals and the latter's support of the most conservative leaders is because
every major policy of the liberals is contrary to Scripture.
Starting
with just the 10 commandments, with supporting texts, let us
being with #1:
► 1. I
am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of
Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods
before me. (Exodus 20:2-3)
In 2012 Democrats
deleted or failed to include references to God and a united Jerusalem
that were in the their 2008 platform statement, and it took 3 tries
in a voice vote to put this statement of support back, and which
apparently was still contrary to the vocal majority.
(https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/sep/6/obamas-party-says-no-to-god)
Yet contrary to the first commandment of the Ten in the Bible, the god of
liberalism is not the God of the Bible, for the supreme object of
spiritual devotion for the Left overall is creation, that of the planet, and under the premise of saving it and society, they essentially make themselves out to be incarnated gods, as elite beings being worthy to be the supreme source of security and object of allegiance for mankind, to save the planet and the world.
And which is akin to that of making the one true God of the Bible into an a being like unto corruptible man, (Romans 1:22) presenting themselves as saviors in their lust for power, while supporting abortion (along with suicide), and homosexual relations, as well as redefining gender along with disregarding basic parental rights versus state indoctrination, as well as opposing valid traditional authority in general, while promoting envy and covetousness in making souls dependent on them, and overall supporting immorality and rewarding indolence, while punishing those who obtained benefits by merit. All of which fosters the destruction of society whereby they may obtain power as dictators as souls trade freedom for security.
A major tactic used by the Left in its quest for power is that of the inculcation of the demonic "victim entitlement mentality" referred to more further on in this article, in which a class of souls are seduced into constantly seeing themselves as victims of oppression (usually thru imagined and or magnified injustices, even if in generations past) by a enemy class (in which guilt is to be induced), and which is perennially reinforced, whereby the Lefits elite present themselves as saviors, thereby obtaining the power they lest for.
Perhaps no great example of the working out of this is that of the decline of the American Black Family, Data from U.S. Census reports reveal that between 1880 and 1960, married households consisting of two-parent homes were the most widespread form of African-American family structures.[ composed of two parents and children. Single-parent homes, on the other hand, remained relatively stable until 1960; when they rose dramatically.[13 (Ruggles, S. (1994). The origins of African-American family structure. American Sociological Review, 136–151)] As of 2015, at 77.3 percent, black Americans had the highest rate of non-marital births among native Americans.[18 (Camarota, y Steven A. "Births to Unmarried Mothers by Nativity and Education". Center for Immigration Studies)]
In 1880, 75% of black families in Philadelphia were nuclear families (r parents with children), while by 2006, married-couple families accounted for only 34% among African Americans. (https://www.urbanleaguephila.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/ULP_SOBP.pdf)
Which in practical terms is indicative of believing in another Lord and Savior, that of the Left and its "gospel" than that of the Bible, which exposes its tactics.
For
if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached,
or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or
another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with
him. (2 Corinthians 11:4)
And as part of this
idolatry, liberals promote nature as an object of worship, for which
humans are to sacrificed, and essentially ascribing to matter powers
of deity, of pre-existence.
► 2. Thou
shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any
thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or
that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself
to them, nor serve them:...(Exodus 20:4-5)
The graven images
that are set up as objects of obeisance, of allegiance and security
are the liberals who present themselves as saviors for the
"oppressed," soul whom they seduced with the
victim-entitlement gospel.
And whose divine
kingdom of liberal-land promises assured income, free education, day
care, health care - including for prevention and treatment of
deleterious recreational practices promoted as a right - etc. While
requiring supporters to worship at the altar of sacrosanct political
correctness, and essentially salute the flag of Sodom, as they look
to the state and its leaders as deity.
All of which is
contrived as reasonably fundable, while in reality it is more akin to
believing the Democrats will miraculously provide for it like manna
falling down from Heaven.
► 3.Thou
shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord
will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. (Exodus
20:7)
Rather, profanity
(along with eroticism) is basically obligatory in liberalland, along
with misusing the name/authority of God in order to give authority
and sanction to their anti-Biblical policies,
► 4. Remember
the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do
all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy
daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor
thy stranger that is within thy gates: (Exodus 20:8-10)
While the Lord's day
(whether understood as the 7th
of the 1st) as being a day of rest cannot be mandated, the fact that
Sunday largely was more than
any other day is a testimony to the overall basic character of
America. Which liberalism is opposed to, and is actually hostile to
the esteem of the word of God that is behind the overall observance
of the 1st day as that of rest.
Instead, liberals
want souls to rest in their promises and look to them as saviors
every day. And the entity behind liberalism seeks the honor, glory
and worship that is due to God alone. Which is related to Communism's
lust to exalt itself as superior to capitalism and basic Biblical
principles it relies on.
► 5. Honour
thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land
which the Lord thy God giveth thee. (Exodus 20:12)
Instead, liberalism
attacks the character of the Biblical family, by insisting that
"father and thy mother" need not refer to male and female -
which Christ specified is what God joined together (Mt. 19:4-6; cf.
Gn. 2:18-24)
And as for children,
liberal student rebels over administration buildings in the 70's in
order to force submission to their demands, and today liberals
promote rebellion against parental authority as they seek to make
themselves, as the government, the supreme parent, and conform family
and children into their image, as citizens of a new world order that
overall perverts what God has ordained. Thus liberals promote gender
dysphoria and sex-change treatment, even without parental consent,
while also criminalizing any judicious Biblical corporeal
chastisement of children.
► 6. Thou
shalt not kill. (Exodus 20:13)
The Hebrew word for
"kill" means murder, and the willful unlawful taking of
innocent life is a capital crime. And afflicting the most vulnerable
victims calls for Divine judgment. Yet liberals support the murder of
the most innocent and vulnerable, even to placing a value upon life
based upon location (an inch outside the womb - maybe once is
breathes - but not while still inside). Which is justified based upon
a "women's right to do with one's body as they choose." Woe
to the child in a women's motor
vechile that finds itself unwanted.
► 7.Thou
shalt not commit adultery. (Exodus 20:14)
The command against
adultery requires a definition of marriage, which liberal pervert in
joining same-sex couples, while also providing for no-fault divorce,
and affirming fornications in general (which Christ Himself stated
was sin: Mk. 7:21).
► 8. Thou
shalt not steal.
► 9. Thou
shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. (Exodus 20:16)
These two go together
in the case of liberalism and the likes of Communism. Theft is taking
that which is not lawfully (according to Scripture) yours to take or
obtain nor was given, and which is just what liberalism does and
fosters, and uses deception in so doing.
And which aspect of
liberalism is fundamental to its nature, and warrants deeper
analysis, for which I ask the readers patience.
For in Scripture,
benefits from God are provided as gift of purely unmerited grace - as
in spiritual birth to sinners (Rm. 4:5; Titus 3:5) - or as recompense
for obedience (Matthew 25: 31-40; 1 Cor. 3:8ff; Hebrews 10:35) - such
as positions in the kingdom of Christ (Matthew 19:28; Rv. 3:21) -
(although since both the ability as well as the motivation to obey
God is wholly from God, thus this is of grace also, and not as a
matter of justice, but because God has graciously consented to
recompense obedience which He alone deserves credit for).
Likewise in the human
economy benefits are to be given as recompense for obedience to
Biblical principles (merit), or as response to the actions of others
that placed one in legitimate need (as in a right to birth and care
due to sex), or as a gift by the actions of others, which as a gift -
not a right - is to foster a response of gratitude toward betterment
according to ability.
Thus under grace God
the Lord promises to those of overcoming faith, "I will grant to
sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down
with my Father in his throne," (Revelation 3:21)
In contrast, in the
original "occupy movement," the devil presumed to "climb
up some other way" (Jn. 10:1) as if he deserved elevation, as if
it were his right, asserting, "I will ascend into heaven, I will
exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the
mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend
above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."
(Isaiah 14:13-14)
This was a form of
attempted theft, presuming to take what was not his right to have as
if it was his right, for like liberal elites he demanded that God
"share the wealth," and in his own estimation presumed he
should sit as God, and that God's means of blessing and promotion was
not fair.
Being therefore cast
down ("for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and
he that humbleth himself shall be exalted." Luke 18:14) yet
still seeking power, he next goes to Eve and seduces her by
inculcating a "victim-entitlement mentality," inferring
that God was deceiving her with His warning of the consequences of
disobedience for He was selfishly keeping back what was her right to
have, which again was a demand that God needed to share the wealth
with anyone who demanded it.
Of course, as with
Communists and other liberals, the welfare of those they seduce with
their message was not their actual goal, but that of selfishly
obtaining power themselves by presenting themselves as the savior of
those whom they oppress, with the result being progressive eventual
oppression of all.Which is in stark contrast to the Lord Jesus, who
sacrificially gave Himself for our sins, to liberate and lift up
those who receive Him and bless those who sacrificially live out and
share that faith by His Spirit in holiness, despite persecution, and
in so doing serve others in love. (1 Thes. 1; Gal. 6:10; Heb. 6:9,20;
Rv. 2; 3)
And by deceiving Eve
who thus led Adam into sin, then the devil became the "god of
this world," (2 Corinthians 4:4) whom the Lord had made Adam and
Eve stewards of. (Genesis 1:28)
Thus when considering
the ongoing culture war it must be realized that this is in reality a
spiritual war, and that the trajectory of the liberals is that of
attaining the objective of the devil, who selfishly seeks honor and
power for himself, by bring God's creation to do obeisance to him,
and deny God. Which is why he afflicted Job. "For we wrestle not
against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places." (Ephesians 6:12)
And in his demonic
quest for power the liberals are proxy servants of the devil, to
varying degrees, who - in addition to promoting other perversions of
what God has ordained such as marriage - in their own quest for power
essentially work to present those who obtained benefits by Biblical
means as the oppressors (some liberals themselves being excepted) of
those who do not have the same. And that the latter have a right -
regardless of immoral or indolence or wasteful living - to what
others have obtained by merit or inheritance, who must be compelled
to "share the wealth" by specifically taxing them far more
(percentage wise).
And thus such welfare
is not presented as grace but as justice, as a right, even though it
effectively means penalizing those who lawfully obtained what
liberals assert is the right for their voting base to have,
regardless of lack of merit and just the opposite.
Meanwhile liberals
deny innocent infants in the womb (a state due to the actions of
progenitors) the right to life, and instead effectively punish them
for being something they had no choice in.
Thus liberals
effectively disobey the commands not to murder, steal or lie, as well
as the others, including the next and last:
► 10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou
shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his
maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy
neighbour’s. (Exodus 20:17)
In instilling the
demonic victim-entitlement mentality, Communism promoted
envy and covetousness (note: jealousy as in the Bible is that of a
just response to the loss of what was and is rightfully yours, while
envy is wanting that which is not yours), which liberals foster in
order to obtain power.
The Marxist points to
the possessions and power of the capitalist "bourgeoisie"
such as the factory owner, as unjust, regardless of the risks and
honest labor he obtained it by, which possessions the Marxist asserts
is the right of the "proletariat" (the lower class
wage-earners) to have, and which the Marxist promises to obtain for
them if given power.
Western liberals go
beyond this and class the bourgeoisie as consisting of wage-earners
who make over a certain (fluctuating) amount, and the proletariat as
including those who can but will not be productive, and or who
persistently engage is destructive lifestyles. Which includes
medicaid support for the prevention (about 2,000 a day) and or
treatment (lifetime about 400,000) of HIV/AIDs, with sodomy being the
means of transmission in over
80% of cases among men . And again, the government provided
benefits are provided as a right.
In
conclusion, as the devil seeks total domination, that is what the
trajectory of moral decline and advance of the liberal agenda would
will lead to if not defeated, and with anarchy likely leading to a
dictatorship in which all who will not essentially salute the flag of
Sodom will be treated like as those who would not support Stalin.
However,
the true church, the body of Christ, did not begin with a silver
spoon but in an empire whose leaders would make all our current
leadership look moral, and the New Testament Christians suffered much
persecution, yet kept marching to Zion, spiritually speaking. It is
that manner of faith that Christians need and will need to have as
strangers and pilgrims in a foreign land, even as they seek others
who join them on the narrow highway to Heaven, to the glory of God.
For
ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling
of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better
and an enduring substance. Cast not away therefore your confidence,
which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience,
that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the
promise. For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come,
and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith: but if any
man
draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of
them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the
saving of the soul. (Hebrews 10:34-39)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second edition:
The
ethos of the liberal Left stands in complete contradiction to what
God has ordained, in principles and precept.
1.
Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
(Deuteronomy 5:7)
Whatever
is our motivating supreme object of spiritual devotion and ultimate
source of security, is our god, at least at the moment. The Left
promotes creation - nature (includes humans) and materialism - as
being the supreme object of spiritual devotion in whose interest all
else must be subject to, seeing as if finds its source of security
therein. Of course, the part of nature that is the ultimate god for
many of them is their leaders. Who, as with the devil whose proxy
servants there are, lust for power, to be as gods to whom all are to
be dependent upon for sustenance and security, and give adulation and
make obeisance to and which their supporters give them.
Note
that when the true and living God calls for supreme worship, then it
not as the selfishly devil seeks, for God needs nothing, (Acts 17:25)
and is always giving, while man is the only creature in the physical
realm that gives God grief. But making the only omnipotent omniscient
and morally perfect Being to be your God is simply right and what is
best for man. For created things will ultimately fail us and often
mislead us.
2.
Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or
any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the
earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth: Thou shalt
not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy
God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my
commandments. (Deuteronomy 5:8-10)
This
flows from the former, with visible representations of their gods and
their works - corruptions of the true and living God - being
sacrosanct above all others, with anything that competes with or
opposes being censored and targeted for extermination. A special mark
which signifies this devotion and which is designed to compel
obedience by requiring it for everything from travel to commerce,
would be an extension of this.
And
he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond,
to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And
that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name
of the beast, or the number of his name. (Revelation 13:16-17)
3.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy
God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his
name in vain. (Deuteronomy 5:11)
This
goes along with having no graven images for worship, as just as they
are forbidden, being corruptions of the one true God, so invoking His
authority/name is an abuse of it. Likewise along with a sign of the
required submission which the is increasingly required, would be the
misuse of it, not simply what they would consider a misuse of their
infrastructure (as we see in Internet censorship) but counterfeit use
if the special mark which signifies devotion to the anti-Christ
state.
4.
Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the
Lord thy God hath commanded thee. (Deuteronomy 5:12)
Just
as a special day is given in Scripture signifying the culmination of
God's created work (and in the NT, the resurrection of Christ
signifying His perfect final atonement), so today Earth day is holy
day of obligation in the world of the Left, and we can expect some
mandatory observation of a day signifying loyalty to the liberal
state.
5.
Honour thy father and thy mother, as the Lord
thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that
it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord thy God giveth
thee. (Deuteronomy 5:16)
Flowing
from rebellion against the authority of God is rebellion against any
God-instituted authority when it acts according to the word of God,
beginning with parents. The Left not only fosters children that have
no father and thus look to the women as the authority, but they
promote rebellion against any authority when it acts according to the
word of God, and makes the liberal state the supreme authority, to
which all are to look for sustenance and security.
6.
Thou shalt not kill [murder]. (Deuteronomy
5:17)
Not
content with fostering rebellion by children against any just
authority, the Left promotes the murder of those which are the
product of sexual union as well as the innocent elsewhere, from
nursing homes to Islamic nations who murder Christians. Meanwhile
consistent with its murder of the innocent, it opposes capital
punishment for those to willfully take such life, all the while
hypocritical professing to value life.
7.
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
(Deuteronomy 5:18)
As
part of its rebellion against God the Left also works to corrupt the
family which depends upon stable life-long union btwn the husband and
wife, and thus promotes fornication and fosters adultery if it even
sees marriage as favorable, which it overall does not as compared to
The Pill. Which it feeds females beginning in preteen years and for
decades after. Thus robbing women of the rewards of motherhood.
In
further degradation, the Left whole-heartedly promotes sexually
joining together what God has placed asunder, thus perverting the
most basic aspect of God-ordained human society.
8.
Neither shalt thou steal. (Deuteronomy 5:19)
The
Left seeks to appropriate what it has not merited, presuming as the
intellectual elite that they should be in authority without meriting
it, whether it be students taking over administration offices or via
"occupy movements." Likewise it promotes the
victim-entitlement mentality in which souls are seduced by the
message that if they do not have what others have merited/earned (or
as much) then they are necessarily victims of unjust
oppression, for whom so many millionaire Leftists present themselves
as saviors for, promising them such benefits as a matter of justice.
Thus mercy (not getting what you actually deserve) and grace
(blessings you did not merit) y others is rejected, since any lack is
necessarily due to injustice, regardless of how less diligent one has
been in meriting such. Thus race and not ability often becomes the
overriding determinant in employment or enrollment in the name of
combating prejudice and racism. Which must be overcome, but not based
upon preferring one race over another but by rewarding
industriousness and ability and morality regardless of race.
However,
obtaining position by envious presumption, not worthiness, is just
what their master did in presuming he was worthy to sit in the place
of God, (Is. 14:14) and then essentially telling Eve that she was
being treated unjustly by God, and that it was her right to be as God
who needed to "share the wealth." And rather than suffering
for disobedience, this power was to be justly obtained by
disobedience to Him. But instead this resulted in the devil obtaining
power while she and her (more accountable) husband who gave into her
suffered. Likewise the self-assumed liberal elite end up being the
only ones living in luxury as a result of seducing masses to put them
in power with their lies.
And
consistent with the demonic rejection of God’s
ordained means of obtaining benefits by obedience in addition to
acts of mercy and grace, and
liberalism’s antipathy against authority (other than them) and laws
which punish immorality, radical liberals now advocate for defunding
police and even abrogating laws that criminalize crimes from
Driving Without A Valid License to Resisting
Arrest
to
Wanton
Destruction
of Property.
9.
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against
thy neighbour. (Deuteronomy 5:20)
The
Left engage in deception as a craft, from their overtly biased forced
"interpretation" of history to misleading the audience
about current social issues - -including promoting harmful moral
practices (abortion, fornication, sodomy, etc. ) as healthy or needed
- to promoting fabricated ideas about the Bible and persons.
10a.
Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour’s
wife, (Deuteronomy 5:21)
It
is within the Left that "open marriage" is treated as part
of the lauded social liberation of society, if they esteem marriage
at all.
10b.
neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour’s
house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or
his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour’s. (Deuteronomy 5:21)
The
ethos of the Left fundamentally sanctions and employs coveting/envy
in promoting the victim-entitlement mentality from Hell in which
souls are seduced by the message that if they do not have what others
have earned then they are necessarily victims of unjust oppression,
which the deceptive selfish liberal saviors promise to obtain for
them as expressed under Neither shalt thou steal. (Deuteronomy 5:19)
