“Looks Like He’s Going to Get the Chance to Raise His Hand and Lie”

Via CNN: The Senate voted on Tuesday to confirm Steve Dettelbach as President Joe Biden’s pick to run the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

Successful confirmation of the nominee is a victory for the Biden administration and comes in the wake of a string of recent mass shootings – in Buffalo, New York, Uvalde, Texas and Highland Park, Illinois – that have shocked the nation and led to calls for further action to address gun violence in America.

The confirmation vote marks a major milestone since the ATF has operated under a series of acting directors since its last Senate-confirmed leader stepped down in 2015, and the Senate last confirmed an ATF nominee in 2013.

At Newsweek, sprinkled with some propaganda, the story is getting out there. TCJ hasn’t reported on this and there’s some good reporting elsewhere. Just thought to update folks who haven’t been following the situation in the Netherlands.

But the effects will be global. The Netherlands is the world’s second largest agricultural exporter after the United States, making the country of barely 17 million inhabitants a food superpower. Given global food shortages and rising prices, the role of Dutch farmers in the global food chain has never been more important. But if you thought the Dutch government was going to take that into account and ensure that people can put food on the table, you would be wrong; when offered the choice between food security and acting against “climate change,” the Dutch government decided to pursue the latter.

What is particularly frustrating is that the government is fully aware that what it is asking farmers to do will drive many of them out of existence.

Note this sentence carefully:

The reaction by members of the agricultural sector has been massive and ongoing since 2019, but the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic allowed the government of Prime Minister Mark Rutte to ban protests in 2020 and 2021.

[…]

It may make the country’s elite to feel good about themselves, but it will also result in large parts of the population seeing their living standards decline and their economic existence targeted by the state for ideological reasons.

All governments were given a head start during the planned shutdowns, but people seem to be coming out of dreamland about the global communist takeover. Europe and North America are not Central America; thinking there will be no reaction is a critical error by the globalists. On the other hand, there are a lot of socialist slogans used by the farmers. Will they accept concessions only to enter the ever-tightening noose?

Loads of data, charts, and math to back it up. That headline percent is not infants and includes some teens. Shockingly, the US is giving these shots to six-month-olds and pregnant women.

On June 17th 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) criminally extended the emergency use authorisation of the mRNA Covid-19 injections for use in children as young as 6 months.

There has never been an emergency in regard to Covid-19 infection among children. Two years of evidence show the alleged disease has only adversely affected the elderly and vulnerable. Children have been unlucky to suffer symptoms more severe than those associated with the common cold.

[…]

But it’s the triple vaccinated figures that are truly frightening when it comes to children.

The ONS data shows that between 1st Jan 21 and 31st March 22, triple jabbed children aged 10-14 were statistically 303 times more likely to die than unvaccinated children of Covid-19, 69x more likely to die of any cause other than Covid-19 than unvaccinated children, and 82x more likely to die of all-causes than unvaccinated children.

This suggests that three doses of a Covid-19 injection increase the risk of all-cause death for children by an average of 8,100%, and the risk of dying of Covid-19 by an average of 30,200%. Whilst two doses increase the risk of all-cause death by an average of 3,600%.

But as things currently stand it’s the other way round for teenagers. Two doses of a Covid-19 injection increase the risk of all-cause death for teens aged 15 to 19 by an average of 300%. Whilst three doses increase the risk of all-cause death by an average of 100%.

The figures for children though, are in fact even worse than they first appear. This is because the unvaccinated mortality rate among 10-14-year-olds includes children aged 10 and 11 who were only offered the Covid-19 injection from the beginning of April 2022, despite the UK Medicine Regulator questionably granting emergency use authorisation for it to be administered to young children in late December 2021.

If Government hides mortality rates, somebody smart could determine the number of infant and child coffins sold in a year-over-year comparison, including the last five years. They can’t hide all the ancillary data.

Romans 5:6-10

Some are at peace with God. Some make war on God. And yet some are wholly unaware. Sometimes it’s difficult to know who is who and what master they serve. Some have peace with God but a raging war against sin on the inside, tearing them up. Some have faith without peace being a sheep gone astray. Some are justified by the illusions of their mind having peace for a season of their own creation; like a baby with a pacifier, they have temporary comfort while gaining no sustenance. Many know full well they serve the devil; you being a sinner, have that same capacity. Most are blinded and glad to be so. But every soul on earth, ungodly sinners all, have access in faith to the throne of the Almighty by the grace of God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

There is no peace, no end to the war of the heart and soul by any hustled-up religion, self-help book, and undoubtedly not by the evil that abounds unto death in this world. But we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God through Jesus Christ our Lord and our Saviour. Do you want to wait, have faith in the arbitrary, and see if a better option comes along? You genuinely are taking your chances; eternity is nothing to gamble away.

Hardships are coming; they’re already arriving and will bear down on the soul. Tribulations start in the tangible world, but that’s not the target; it’s in the human soul where the wrath settles; having vexed the body and mind, the trials of wrath look for your core, plunging the depths of conscience to see what you’re made of. None can withstand God. It’s war by judgments and tribulations or peace by the Lord.

The wrath of God is the allowance of evil, and the world leaders have sided with the maleficent, choosing war with the Almighty. It will affect you, family, friends, work, and every aspect of life. The rulers and would-be tyrants all around us have a vested interest in keeping you socially inept, isolated, away from others of like heart and mind. As if by some power, and it is, the whole world was locked in their homes wearing a diaper on their face. Evil is real, and it’s a spirit. The mental damage to especially the young and old is permanent, and you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. No man knows the future but do you think things will soon improve? They could, but more likely are wonders to behold; all the world will marvel as the depths of evil are plunged, and none will escape. It will affect your very soul as God permits; that is the target of the enemy’s attack. Evil thrives in the torment of the heart and soul; that’s what’s coming. But there is a peace to be found.

“1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” – Romans 5:1-2

If not today, then why wait? There is no better situation coming, no better time than now, no better covenant than in Christ Jesus. One has but to believe that Christ died paying the fullness of your debt for sin. What a simple and marvelous thing that today, this very moment, you can be delivered from the power of darkness and brought fully into the love that God has for you. There is no reason to wait. Christ will not die again better; God will not love you more later, and the Holy Spirit will not browse the library of your works looking for your nobility. Christ is noble; Christ is King, the only Holy One worthy of life yet suffering defeat at the cross by His own will, for you personally, that you might live bought into godliness by His shed blood upon the tree. He’s not going to the cross again; it is finished; seated at the right hand of Power, Christ has sealed the covenant in His own blood. There’s no purer a covenant because there is no pure blood than that of the Son of God shed for you. Today is your day, the day of redemption; Christ paid it all so that you might go free.

“6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.” – Romans 5:6

Now is that time. Not when you have the strength, not when you claim self-godliness, but now, today! God knows you have no power to save yourself from being in a helpless state against what’s coming, and God knows your sins and transgressions; they have found you out. Christ died for the ungodly, not the self-reformed, cleaned up, and presented with phony piousness; Jesus died for the sinner. Today is the day of salvation come unto you!

“7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” – Romans 5:7-8

Evil is arriving, and cowardice abounds in these times, although we do see glimmers of hope. Oh, so rarely for a righteous man, and some might die for a good man daring to follow after, but Christ didn’t die for good men; He died while we were sinners, ungodly, yet without strength on our own, because God loves you. God has Commended His love by showing the extraordinary depth and mercy of His heart toward you, in that He gave His only begotten Son, Christ Jesus. No better man is coming; it’s Jesus Christ the Son of God. He’s the only sinless, there being none good, no perfect love but that of God.

“Could we with ink the ocean fill,

And were the skies of parchment made;

Were every stalk on earth a quill,

And every man a scribe by trade;

To write the love of God above

Would drain the ocean dry;

Nor could the scroll contain the whole,

Though stretched from sky to sky.”

The story goes that this poem was found on a cell wall in an insane asylum. Is it any wonder, the love of God seems wholly irrational in a hate filled world. When they come for the truth-tellers, when earthly thrones and kingdoms fall, when as today they call the just man crazy and the evil good, upon what foundation of love will you stand?

Today is the day of salvation because of the covenant with the Saviour who was foreordained before the foundation of the world to die for you. You can be found justified in the mind of Almighty God and saved from the wrath to come. It’s coming; there is no better time, no nearer day to the Lord than this very moment, escaping the wrath of God that abides on all those that hear but wait! Salvation is to them that believe in the power of God over the evil of sin, the world, and death.

“9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.” – Romans 5:6-10

The enemies of God are lining up, outing themselves more and more every day. Surely you’re not with them? Why remain an enemy of God? It’s a war you can’t win; today is the day of reconciliation, forgiveness, and salvation; having risen from the grave, He’s alive. By His life, you can enter into life everlasting.

What cartoonish silliness is this to stand at the pearly gates and be assessed by God to see if you’re worthy? You are not holy. You are not sinless. You are not eternal. You’re not worthy; you’re an ungodly sinner, full of deceit, hate, and anger. When those eyes pierce your very soul, it’ll be too late; either you belong to the Just One who is worthy and enter into the love of God by Him, or you’ll be cast into outer darkness burning for eternity. No man stands on the last day; every knee will hit the dirt, every tongue will be stopped; Christ is King.

It’s by the power of God that Christ rose from the grave, and it’s by His power that you, if you are His, will be raised to a new life, being made a son of God, knowing God, set to new purposes in a new kingdom under Heaven. Want to die a death with meaning, gallantly? Die for Christ on the battlefield fighting for the souls of men in the Kingdom of God. Today is the day to be made a friend of God; such a thing as that is the offer of the Almighty whose boundless love toward you would accept the torture of His own Son in your stead.

Friends with God today; Jesus knows those that are His. There’s no reason to fight it, no reason under creation to remain His enemy – what have they got to offer but the coming hell on earth and in eternity to follow?

It can’t be overstated; there is no better offer coming, no better god, no better faith, no better religion; it’s not even about religion or Church; it’s Jesus. Jesus Christ poured out the sinless blood of the New Covenant, for He is the way to the Father, the Creator and Redeemer of those yet without strength, of ungodly sinners in need of salvation; turning to the Saviour today, you can be His. The choice is yours to make, the wrath to come or the love of God by Christ Jesus. Without the resurrection of Christ, there is no eternal life for the believer at the last day; you won’t be raising yourself from the dead to be with Holy Father God. Now is the time to get this right.

Call upon the Father, tell Him you don’t want war with Him; you don’t want to die in your sin but desire a life with meaning and purpose above any that the death and hell the world has to offer. Grace reigns through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. God is faithful to those who are His, for He delivered Christ, so you can also know that He’ll deliver you into eternal life, sealed through faith, in the blood covenant made before the world began.

Reagan Shooter John Hinckley: “There’s too Many Guns in America”

Revelation 7.

Readers will remember the post: “Jehovah’s Witnesses” Are Terribly Mislead in which commenters lamented the lack of knowledge as to the symbolism of the number 144,000 among other good comments.

I said this:

These are they, best as we can reckon, that were saved, sealed, witnesses of the children of Israel (sons of Jacob) called Jews, that suffered for His name’s sake, spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ up to and through the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD. The 144,000 are Jews! They are not American of Caucasian and African lineage living today; they are not! And, suppose for a moment, they are not, but suppose they are real; if there are only 144,000 thousand of them; why are there millions of them running around?!?

Here we find an explanation of the number as symbolic and an interesting discussion as to who the 144,000 are in history. In the comments conversation over there, I learned something new: the majority view is; that the 144,000 represent the entire church or all those in the church age. That I had not known, but it didn’t change my mind. I remain in the minority view. Read the discussion over there.

Verses 9-10, I think, are the church:

“9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.”

Here also is an explanation of who specifically the 144,000 are. “Jehovah’s Witnesses” today are terribly deceived.

There are so few knowledgeable and well-researched web pages about the Bible; it’s disappointing.

Generally, conspiracy theories are a waste of time. But, with this report, one has to wonder if the government sat down and said; let’s gin up a grand conspiracy and make it public.

A Uvalde, Texas, police officer armed with a rifle spotted the gunman outside of Robb Elementary School before he entered the building and asked his supervisor for permission to shoot, but the supervisor either didn’t hear the request or didn’t respond in time, allowing the suspect to enter the school, according to a report released Wednesday by the Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training Center (ALERRT).

So wait, the cops were already there? Having seen a few timelines around the web, carefully considered, I thought, that can’t be what happened! But, maybe it can be?

The gunman would go on to murder 19 children and two teachers before a Border Patrol tactical team eventually breached the classroom and took him out over 70 minutes later, a delay that has been sharply criticized by lawmakers, state law enforcement officials, and the Uvalde community.

Why didn’t he take the shot?

It’s unclear why the initial Uvalde police officer did not immediately fire at the gunman, who had already started shooting into classrooms as he walked along the perimeter of the school.

Again, what were police doing there, and why didn’t the officer take the shot?

Romans 3:10-26 (Psalm 10:6-7, Isaiah 59:7-8)

I went to a Buc-ee’s. It’s quite an operation. One leaves trying to wrap their mind around what is or is not America and wondering what will become of us. The gas was 10 cents higher than the other stations on the Interstate, but nobody seemed to care or notice; it’s a Buc-ee’s, so presumably, that makes it worth it. Without exaggeration, this one must have more than 100 gas pumps, every lane full; cars, SUVs, or pickups with boomers dragging a fifth wheel.

I’m not sure what the attraction is. The people seem to be there only to be there. Everything was slightly overpriced, and although the food looked pretty good, it was only gas station food. But Buc-ee’s is more than a gas station; it’s a relationship. The BBQ sam’mich was going as fast as they could make them by the dozen.

The lady at the checkout, local as they come, said it’s flat out, non-stop; there must be thousands of people coming and going every day. They’ll pay you $20 an hour to work the overnight shift. She seemed a little slow, but professing Christ, she’s my sister and probably has a more faithful love for the Saviour than I’ll ever know. All some need is a crumb from the Master’s table (Matthew 15:27). God rarely calls those from the high lofts – if that’s you, salvation is no small gift; don’t waste it (Luke 12:47-48).

It’s hard to know if the people going there don’t care about inflation and the state of things in the world, or perhaps that’s the point of stopping at a Buc-ee’s on your road trip; to forget the world. There was no sense at all of the death of America or the irony of the place as a symbol and type of the commoditization of the consumer being a nail in the coffin of the West by ending the tangible work of making and building things. The country’s going to hell, actual, but hey, let’s head to the Buc-ee’s out by the Interstate!?!

There’s a section for T-shirts and hats and Buc-ee’s gear. No, I didn’t get a Buc-ee’s T-shirt. Maybe a twinge of regret since I’m not against self-deprecating humor. An area with very overpriced “local” stuff with a State or nearby tourist attraction theme to it. Many self-serve soda dispensers with Buc-ee’s brand of cola, root beer, orange, and the like. They make their own dessert fudge right there and have other areas with things like that. And, of course, a section of regular snacks like Cheeto’s and Coke in a can for those who need a known degree of danger to their health delivered in a familiar size, shape, and color.

On private property, which sole purpose is to make money, it’s often a tricky business, pretending to browse while not angering a money spender. I was quite the novelty among those from far-flung midwestern and northeastern states. A real live Christian, openly discussing salvation in Christ Jesus and handing out literature about the human soul’s condition and relationship to its Creator. A real oddity, curious looks of wonder all around. Christians really exist, rare, but we saw one at the Buc’ee’s, didn’t we, honey, and it asked me about heaven.

“There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.” – Romans 3:11

There is none righteous, no, not one. Nobody understands; none seek God, for it’s the Almighty that calls to them and draws them and makes the previously unaware begin to see His purposes; nobody seeks God but that God reveals Himself. You can talk at the Buc-ee’s to a midwestern tourist all day long about Christ, but they can’t hear you until God speaks to them.

“There is no fear of God before their eyes.” – Romans 3:18

Holy God stands before all men, observing their every thought and deed, but neither can they see Him.  So few now care for the things of the Almighty or ever consider His ways. How does a civilization turn Godless and survive?

And so America tells itself what is said by all those about to suffer a fall: “He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.” – Psalm 10:6. A fitting verse for an afternoon at the Buc-ee’s, overwhelmed with abundance.

“Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness” – Romans 3:14. Compare with: “His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.” – Psalm 10:7

Is that you, a sinner, dead in your trespasses, self-assured yet utterly self-deceived, blind to God? A man can curse God without ever speaking a word.

“15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: 16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: 17 And the way of peace have they not known” – Romans 3:15-17 (see Isaiah 59:7-8). It is an apt description of the American leadership we’ve come to know, realizing they are taking us where almost none but the hopelessly useful idiot dare go.

The place was packed with people, but there was still room to move and browse. Are they conscience, wandering through life, or simply taking a break from the soon-coming and man-made wreckage?

But I did meet a brother in Christ who was missing several front teeth. I know this because I asked him about his eternal station and saw the biggest unashamed smile light up half complex; that man knows Christ, and from what he’s been saved. It never gets old, that smile of the true believer, the blessing of the almighty by His Spirit living in their heart, the wonderfully fearful, and nowadays ever more rare called of God, appointed unto salvation to service of Him. He moved here from England as a child, an Air Force vet, and a good guy. ‘Round these parts, missing teeth don’t mean dumb; that’s just Hollywood.

His Church is a large one, down to about 50 core people as they search for a new Pastor. As hard as that sounds, it appears to be a good thing: find out who’s committed, purge the chaff, gather the dead branches and burn them up, get new leadership, reset, and serve with purpose. He was there just for the spectacle of it all. Neither of us was disappointed.

We talked by a display of beef jerky, a prominent item, being both road food and guy food. It caught my stomach’s attention. I told him we had about forty; that is the core where I go, serving the Lord with consistent purpose. I’m blessed beyond measure to be among folks who love the Lord, seek the lost with the Gospel, work for Christ with purpose of heart and mind, and are training the young. It’s a rare thing where I go, having been to dozens of Churches, many just like the Buc-ee’s, full of tourists who, for the life of their eternal soul, couldn’t explain the purpose or meaning of what their Church exists to accomplish and why they are there or who profits.

Departing from my new friend and heading for the Beef Jerky counter, I got $15, half a pound worth by weight, of the “sweet and spicy,” which was neither sweet nor spicy. And it got eatin’ in the vehicle on the freeway after leaving; this is what one dutifully does with beef jerky on the road. Not dry, somehow, although under spiced, it was pretty tasty. Since they said we couldn’t eat cows anymore, I ate it all ’till I felt a little gurgly in the belly. I still eat dead cows; price is no object if it means one more good ol’ methane-loaded cow fart to make a liberal cry.

I don’t know if America will make it. I suspect not. But my new toothless Buc-ee’s friend and I, we’ll make it. The rest may burn like a roman candle, but we’d like you to know; that you can make it too.

“24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God” – Romans 3:24-25

Via The Gun Feed: antichrist, anti-science, Psychology Today calls for media and “scientific community” whoring for gun control.

The science is abundantly clear: More guns do not stop crime. Guns kill more children each year than auto accidents. More children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active military members. Guns are a public health crisis, just like COVID, and in this, we are failing our children over and over again.

The article says guns kill people. Seriously? What about the mental state of the people who take up weapons against the unarmed, especially when the prey are children and women?

Advocating for gun control is the position of the hopelessly ignorant, which must mean that Psychology has no answer as to the causation of the mental or emotional condition of those who commit such wicked and sinful acts. That rag is worse than useless. Psychology isn’t even science.

As TCJ has pointed out at length, claiming inanimate objects cause human behavior is belief in voodoo.
