What’s Different this Time?

I’ve always been keen on the news, especially when it comes to deciphering the truth of what is going on in the world.  Fake news is not a new concept to All Will Stand.  Originally I was part of a website with Brandon that was in its infancy in creating real news article.  Back then, in 2011, we didn’t call it fake news, but rather just knew that oftentimes there was more to a story, a different side, then what was being bombarded on the television screens and newspaper articles across the United States.

 

The rise of alternative news was growing quickly back then as patriots were providing articles, radio programs and videos about what was really going on.  This time things are different when it comes to North Korea, while there are certainly much more to learn about the regime via alternative outlets, the mainstream media is telling the truth regarding North Korea’s ability to hit the United States mainland with nuclear weapons, the only differing points is whether they have the ability to hit the entire continental United States or from the west coast all the way to Chicago. 

 

Kim Yong-un, North Korea’s dictator, has been saying for quite some time that he could hit the mainland, the United States shrugged off this idea and it was presumed that eventually, if not stopped, he would be able to.  With this thought many Americans happily went along with the idea of trying to stop North Korea from getting the advanced technology to hit the United States with nuclear weapons, either diplomatically or military.  Well now that North Korea can hit -at least- much of the United States with nuclear weapons, where do we stand now?

 

When Obama got elected there were tons of people online advocating that this was the last President of the United States, that he was going to usher in martial law, open the concentration camps and turn the country into a giant controlled prison complex.  The alarmist were wrong about end game, as it is called, being thrust unto society during Obama’s eight years, yet people reacted with fervor in prepping for the possibility, with sales exploding in weapons, ammo, food stockpiles, gear, etc..

 

In 2007, before Obama was even elected, there was a mass movement of people prepping for a coming economic collapse, martial law, etc., us included.  The evidence was there and indeed an economic collapse did begin to happen, but what I have come to learn since then is that the Federal Reserve has a good grip on manipulation and unless there is actually a major disaster (war, large earthquake, super volcano, etc.) they will just keep the dollar propped up, until they determine not to.  Of course those who know the Lord, understand that truly it is in His timing, not man’s timing.

 

“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of Heaven, but My Father only.”  Matthew 24:36

 

“For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He is now restraining, until it is raised from out of the midst.”  2nd Thessalonians 2:7

 

The very fact that it appears that the global elite was going to release swine flu on the population back in 2009, but it was caught before the -live- virus was inserted into vaccines (from a Canadian pharmaceutical maker), the plan was foiled.  Was this a real attempt by those powers of darkness? 

 

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against authorities, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in the heavenlies.”  Ephesians 6:12

 

With every major potential event we have seen a decent percentage of Americans make some sort of attempt to protect themselves in case such a scenario were to unfold.  The general consensus is that our government would be much more likely to declare martial law, round up its dissenters into extermination camps than they would be to legitimately help out the populations.  Case in point, the United States, the richest country, is not spending money on nuclear bunkers, etc., as WE DID back in the 50’s and 60’s, while places like Russia have enough bunkers underneath Moscow for the ENTIRE population of 12 million, of which they have been preparing for years.  Yet in the same breath the United States passed legislation on federal, state and local levels that would have been very draconian should the swine flu event unfolded.  In fact a lot of money was also spent on fixing the housing market, in terms of trillions of dollars to reboot the economy.  Now with a REAL threat of war, with millions of Americans potential killed from nukes destroying our cities, we, as a nation, party today for tomorrow we die? 

 

“And in that day Jehovah of Hosts called for weeping and mourning, and for baldness, and for girding with sackcloth.  But behold, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine, saying, Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”  Isaiah 22:12-13

 

Kim Yong-un has been threatening the United States with nuclear missiles for a long time, stating that he is going to ‘teach some manners’ to us.  With now a realistic threat, one that could change the landscape of this country forever, the political power structure that the United States now holds, as well as our economic stability (or instability with the bubbles, depending on how you look at it).  How many cities would have to be hit by a nuclear weapon for this to happen?  In our opinion, one, just one. 

 

According to a recent news article, an unnamed source in the Pentagon said that the US will go to war with North Korea within one year.  Hearsay, possibly, but it certainly is a possibility with our current administration, one that should not be taken lightly.  Perhaps this option truly is the best option, but can it be pulled off without millions of people dead in Japan, South Korea and/or the United States?  Would not North Korea have sleeper cells inside the United States ready to inflict mass casualties?  Of course Americans wouldn’t consider this a possibility, certainly a county as inferior as North Korea would never mess with the big, bad-boy Americans who would pummel them into the ground.

 

“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.”  Proverbs 16:18

 

Indeed Americans could win the war, but at what cost.  Would non-intervention be a better policy?  As most evangelicals support Donald Trump, apparently that trust is good enough to be a total due-nothing society.  Preparations for unrest in our society were taken by millions of Americans, the thought of what could happen, with less evidence than the realistic threat that is currently facing this country.  Instead of a theory of potential martial law or the poles shifting, the Mayan calendar, swine flu, Obama, etc., a true threat has emerged.

 

Many people voted for Trump to keep us out of war.  Our relationship with Russia had fallen to a point of near no-return under Obama, with Hillary Clinton posed to continue, yet with Trump in office our relationship with our neighbors is now at an all time low.  Is it pressure from proving that he is not a ‘Russian agent’ that causes him to continue this policy?  Sometimes war is necessary though, sometimes it is unavoidable.  Yet Americans have never dealt with an attack from the outside, we have no experience in this. 

 

Japanese citizen are scrambling buying $19,000 bunkers at a record-breaking pace.  There they are fervently prepping supplies for a potential missile coming into their country.  South Korea is not a good example as they have dealt with the threat of North Korea for years and years, being complacent to such ideas, plus their expendable income does not allow them to spend tons of money on such preparations.  Americans shrug off such thoughts that our great country could be attacked by such an insignificant regime, such as North Korea.

 

When North Korea fired off their first intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), it was reported that they could hit Alaska, I ran across a news article that stated that Alaskans were simply shrugging it off and going on with life as normal.  Now that North Korea has proven it can at minimum hit as far as Chicago, do you see any sort of panic, preparedness or concern regarding this huge revelation?  Are the masses calling for the government to protect them, installing more anti-nuclear THAAD type technology?  The assumption is that we will be fine, they can’t touch us.

 

What about America as a ‘christian’ nation.  How many think that God wouldn’t allow a city to be nuked because we are a ‘light’ to the world?  How many assume that such an instance couldn’t happen because we believe in God, whereas North Korea denies their Creator?  Would God really allow millions of Americans to die at the hands of such an evil empire that kills their dissidents and makes others work harsh labor conditions?

 

Americans deny their Creator more than most.  While we express the belief that there is a God, though this in dwindling with the younger generation, we deny our Creator by denying what He has told us through His Word.  We express belief, but refuse to adheed to the Bible and what it says.  We defy our Creator and have become Sodom and Gomorrah.  We as a society simply can’t stop with the sin, refuse to repent, refuse to even acknowledge Him by at least following His edicts that are laid out to every man. 

 

We have killed 52,000,000 babies through abortion, sending the far vast majority of those unborn straight to Hell.  We have the highest murder rate out of all civilized countries, as well as the highest crime rate.  While demographics always portray different pictures, as one would argue that we are better at fighting crime, as well as reporting it, the simple fact that remains is that these crimes do occur.  We have the highest incarceration rate in the world, even with more prisoners than China, despite the fact that they are five times more populated than we are.

 

What we have is an evil society who calls evil good.

 

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil; who put darkness for light and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!”  Isaiah 5:20

 

The other day I was channel surfing at night and saw two ‘christian’ stations, one was a show about getting covered in tattoos for Jesus, the other showed a women who was following God’s will, but also stripped for a living!  This is outrageous!  You think that our country wouldn’t be deserving of the judgment of Almighty God?!  Rather we should wrap ourselves in sackcloth, fall on our knees and repent, thankful that we are still here as a society and that He has thus far been patient and merciful to us.

 

A few million dead from nukes would be far less evil than our troops who were in Iraq with tanks spray painted with 666, blasting death metal and mowing down children and families who had nothing to do with Al Qaeda.  This is to say nothing about our torture programs, of which the Iraq situation came to light, as well as the secret CIA rendition sites, floating prison ships, etc., where the US has been involved in problem after problem.  The world sees this, they know, but we as Americans assume to be doing right and can’t be stopped because we are from the good-ol USA. 

 

Who is it who takes and overthrows country after county?  The United States.  Who causes terrible economic conditions for the citizens of a country whose leaders will not bow to the demands of the US or who criticizes our policies?  Once again it is us.  We have caused death and destruction around the globe, adding up the amount of dead directly related to the United States, including our infanticide programs, would be right up there with Stalin, Mao and Hitler.  Yet we are a Christian nation you say?  We do what is right before God?  We don’t defy Him, but are obedient to Him?

 

Wrong, we would be better off not acknowledging Him as North Korea does, then pretending to follow God, without daring to compare our actions to the Holy Scriptures, most cases not even opening our Bibles that most people have.  How long can we continue to defy Him?  Forever?! 

 

If America falls, will Russia and China, who are still trading heavily with North Korea, applaud?  Do not they have something to gain?  Would not allowing the hermit kingdom to attack work in their favor?  Did you know that North Korean scientist worked with Russian scientists for years and years?  If North Korea attacked us, it would allow those countries to take the advantages of a shifting elite power grab, without the side effects of being counter attacked, in fact it would seem to be brilliant.

 

Perhaps the reason for the complacency of the American people is that it is already too late?  Maybe the reason that we are going in this direction is so that God’s judgment indeed comes to this country?  Yet God deals with individuals.

 

“Behold, Jehovah’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor is His ear heavy, that it cannot hear.”  Isaiah 59:1

 

As an individual, regardless of what the future holds, all we can do is look to the Lord to help us during these troubled times.  Without Salvation each individual will be doomed to Hell for eternity, which would be many, many times worse than side effects from radiation poisoning and a collapsed economy. 

 

“Seek Jehovah while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near.  Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to Jehovah, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.”  Isaiah 55:6-7

 

Why not understand that each individual, without Christ, will be cast into the Lake of Fire?  Why not look towards your Creator and repent of your sins, believing into Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.  To that end it is for each man.

 

“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep His commandments; for this is for every man.  For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether good or evil.”  Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

 

“And I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heavens fled away. And there was found no place for them.  And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God. And books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, out of the things which were written in the books.  And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one, according to their works.  And Death and Hades were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death.  And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire.”  Revelation 20:11-15

 

Amen!
