Your Lying Eyes

 

Believe what you are told, not what you see.

The moral of the story is that in a civil society you must obey the lawful orders of police officers. Comply and you will not die. After the tragic, but entirely preventable shooting in Minneapolis, democrats would have you ignore obvious exculpatory video evidence that the ICE officer was justified in shooting a citizen attempting to strike him with her car. Democrats have chosen to become the existential threat to democracy that they have falsely accused Donald Trump of. Their over-the-top rhetoric not only approaches a call for insurrection; it is absolutely a call for citizens to engage in civil unrest and/or violence to obstruct immigration and law enforcement by any means necessary.

Democrats and their leftist allies have transitioned from the all-out attempts at derailing Trump’s agenda to full out crazy town. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz all but declares war on the federal government. Hennepin County District Attorney Mary Moriarty declares that she will lead a counter-investigation. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison demands all evidence and to oversee a federal investigation in which he has no jurisdiction. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey prejudges the shooting and accuses the ICE officer of murder, even after viewing video that exonerates the officer. Other democrat run city officials bluster to placate the mob, promising to arrest and fight any immigration enforcement action. Are these people living in an alternate reality?

Leftists organize and train irrational useful idiots in guerilla tactics to be foot soldiers, putting their lives at risk, while turning them loose against ICE officers. Anarchists, who could care less about “undocumented immigrants,” are intent upon destroying the foundations of a civil society, creating havoc and chaos. Loud mouth fools further incite the mob, cheered on as they encourage the mob’s anger to a fever pitch. The mob’s escalating violence threatens their own wellbeing and that of those around them. And when democrat run city officials stand down the police and allow the mob to take control, reason and violence spin out of control. Without consequences, mob rule replaces the rule of law.

These protests are not against a tyrannical government. These protests are not advocating against unreasonable application of just laws. These protests intend to create chaos to disrupt civil society and foment violence in the furtherance of destroying capitalism and replacing it with a socialist “Utopia.” These useful idiot foot soldiers are advocating for their own country’s demise and elimination of the freedoms this nation affords. The very freedoms misused by those who would conquer us and impose their idea of a “just” society. One that divides by race, class, and ideology.

Vigilantism does not comport with a society based upon the rule of law. The only time a positive outcome occurs when people take matters into their own hands is in Hollywood productions. In film, the hero seldom is seriously injured or dies. In reality, the consequences are dire, unless you happen to reside in democrat run cities where law is not enforced. Those who challenge law enforcement provoke escalating force that is necessary to protect the officer and citizenry, and to effect an arrest. Fighting the police will lead to negative consequences for the offender. In other words, if you comply, you will not die.

Yet, democrats are so intent upon destroying Trump that they are willing to burn down the country to do so. Democrat’s gravy train of corruption derived wealth and illicit benefits outweigh any semblance of duty to uphold their oath to uphold the Constitution. Fulfilling their role as the loyal opposition takes a back seat to opposing Trump on everything. Democrats will incite the unpredictable, villainize Jews and Christians, promote sexual deviancy, protect criminals, support foreign tyrants, and defend the indefensible. Democrats will obfuscate, obstruct, and lie whenever it suits their need. They are plainly in league with Satan and if they refuse to return to God, they must be shunned.

Yet, we are still charged to love our neighbor and help lead the lost to Christ. How do we fight against this evil overtaking our nation while fulfilling our duty as Christians to love our neighbor as ourselves? When Jesus sent out the twelve disciples out to minister to the people, he said, “Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on. As you enter the home, greet its occupants. If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it, but if it is not, let your peace return to you. And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town. Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.” Matthew 10:11-15.

This nation will not be lost to the evil one if evil is confronted and called out for what it is. People overcome by evil are lost, apart from God, but God still loves everyone unconditionally. But those overcome by evil must repent and return to Christ. We cannot judge, especially those who are lost. But we do have a responsibility to share the word so that those seeds of faith may be nurtured by the Holy Spirit. Those who continue to reject the Father and His one true Son are condemned.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever practices the truth comes into the Light, so that it may be seen clearly that what he has done has been accomplished in God.” John 3:16-21.

It is incumbent upon us to shine the light in the darkness so that all may see. Evil cannot exist within the light of truth. Do not acquiesce to the evilness of the world. Be that light. Proclaim God’s truth. Plant the seeds of faith by your actions, speech, and faith. Love your neighbor as yourself, no matter how difficult it may seem to be at times.
