Good Morning,

This is a post to let you know that this coming week, starting on Monday, I will posting a short story. The story is four chapters in length, I will post a chapter each day. As often requested by my readers, on Thursday, the posting of the final chapter, I will also include a link to download the PDF of the entire story for those who wish to do so.

Why a story now? I don’t know. All I know is last weekend I woke up to a small snippet of a story, a scene from a movie playing in my mind. I felt I should write about it. However, I thought that maybe not. To test myself I decided that if I had the same scene and prompting the next morning then I knew I should write that story. The next morning it was there once more. But, my day was full of a task that was fairly critical to the glamstead so I put off the story writing.

By yesterday the final edits were done…7,500 words written, the story was complete. My wife read it and approved, heartily so. I knew then why I had the impression to write it now.

For those of you that have never read any of my stories let me share this…when I write it starts with nothing more than a snippet of something that comes into my mind. Once I sit down at the keyboard a virtual movie begins to play in my mind’s eye…literally as if I was watching a movie. All I do is type it out on the computer screen. That is the same with this story.

I hope and pray that you will read the story and feel the message that is meant for you. Then share the story with others as you feel prompted to do so.

Any chance we could make this permanent???? Sure would solve a lot of problems in the US.

This post is Part #2 of the article I wrote on Monday and is based primarily on a few questions that have come up that I would like to respond to…and add a little more to the original post.

The question came up, “What exactly are you fearful of?” I apologize for not making it more clear in my article. Sometimes when I write, the concept, or thought, of what I want to say is in my head clear as a bell. But, somewhere between my head and the screen it gets a little lost or fuzzy. In this case my “fearful moment” was regarding the hate and violence that was resurfacing against Christians in general and the LDS church in particular.

What I didn’t go over the other day was what happened the day before the terrorist attack on the LDS church. Saturday, during a football game between University of Colorado (UC) and BYU (predominately LDS players) the CU fans began chanting “F*** BYU!” and “F*** the Mormons!”. No one from the UC leadership stopped them…or even attempted to.

Don’t get me wrong, this is not the first time this has happened. Over the last few years that has become almost a regular occurrence at some colleges and universities. Since it comes from adults as well as students, as it did on Saturday, where do you think students learn such behavior?

For the life of me I can’t think that my children or grandchildren would chant anything so vile against any group because they were taught better in the home and at church. Then again, we also know that most colleges and universities are centers of liberals/leftists that hate Christians, religion, and conservatives…and so much more.

So my “fearful moment” comes from the last few years and the significant increase in violence…shootings, beatings, burnings, bombings, attacks…on Christians. Yes, I am referring to attacks against Christians around the world, as I wrote about two weeks ago. But, I am speaking directly to these horrific events here in the United States over the last few years.

My “fearful moment” is that we are on the precipice of violence in the country the likes of which we haven’t seen since the Civil Rights Movement or the Civil War.

I also didn’t refer to the targeted mass-shooting event in North Carolina on Saturday night. That shooter targeted a group based on his hatred of the LGBTQ+ community. He killed people because of their sexual orientation and beliefs??? Whoa!

Why are these two events connected and important? Because both appear to now be on the right-wing end of society’s spectrum. Yes, remember the LDS church killer was flying American flags on his truck and appeared to support both Trump and MAGA. Yes, this is an important factor!

No, I am not saying right-wingers, Trumpers, MAGA supporters, etc. are violent haters ready to kill; that’s ridiculous. I am saying the hate and violence in now manifesting itself across the political spectrum. And, that is not all. Notice that both of these vile killers are former Marines, former Iraqi Freedom vets, and both having claimed to suffer from PTSD. Yes, this is an important factor! Maybe not for what you think though.

We know that huge numbers of vets from the last 25 years of war are substance abusers, we know that a large number are homeless, broken families, and most of all…dozens of these vets are committing suicide every month. Have you asked yourself “Why?” Maybe you should.

Yes, both are mentally ill…violently mentally ill…as all killers/murders are. And that mental illness makes them susceptible to being influenced. And when that influence centers around vile hate the outcome is virtually inevitable.

The manifestation of hate was obvious in Boulder, Colorado last Saturday…just in a rather benign form. All the times that preachers, pastors, and ministers have railed against the “Mormons” in their churches, that hate sinks into people’s minds and souls. All the times that professors and teachers pour hate and lies into young people’s minds takes root. All the time media and celebrities rage against their target group of the month with their lies, demeaning, and hatred influences people.

The worst of it is when it is targeted against Christians…most of whom are really good and decent people…including LDS folks.

My “fearful moment”…that we have entered a very, very dark place in the world…especially in the US. Maybe we are not on the precipice of extreme violence in the country…maybe we are already there. And all the preaching of hate and violence, the bigotry and prejudice, isn’t just coming from the left any more…maybe it is also coming from the pulpits, homes, TV, phones, computer screens, and at political rallies as well.

We need to look into our souls…review what is our hearts…and we need to fully practice all the teachings of Christ. I know I have to repent of some of my actions and preaching. What about you? What about your church, pastors, and ministers? What about your political party and politicians? What about your favorite celebrities? What about your college, university, or high school? But really, what about you?

Sunday morning was not a good morning for me, this Monday morning is far worse. Saturday evening was a pleasant one, even enjoyable. We had attended a dinner party with a lot of folks we know, ate some great food, had good conversations; just a great evening. Sunday I woke up…all of that disappeared.

First off, I read a news report that one of the men I admired most had died overnight. One of the finest men I had ever known was gone from this earth. Not just my admiration, but a goal for my manhood, a goal unattainable as it is/was. Then I saw the first news reports of the LDS church shooting in Michigan. It was almost surreal reading about a man driving his truck and crashing into a church, then shooting men, women, and children. And then setting the church on fire. I couldn’t imagine, still can’t, what would drive a person do commit such acts.

I am not sure why but I decided to read the comments of the different news stories. In a way it was a huge mistake; in another, eye-opening to say the least.

There was mostly what I expected; the liberals blaming MAGA and Trump, the right blaming liberals, and the obvious…the anti-gun crowd calling for gun restrictions. There was a small contingent, atheists I presume, that mocked those in the church, any church. They maintained that had they not been deceived into believing in fairy tales they would not have been in the building and not become a casualty. Odd, from a purely logic perspective they are right in a way. But, what other aspects of their lives would have been negatively affected by their lack of belief and faith.

These last two categories of those leaving comments disturbed me the most. There were two other groups that really made me pause; 1) folks claiming that the LDS church was a cult and they deserved what they got, 2) people claiming that those in the church building weren’t “true Christians” and no one should be upset they were shot and killed and burned to death. These comments struck me deeply and put a horrible feeling deep in my soul. Here are people justifying, even excusing, a horrible act of unspeakable violence against people, even children…because their beliefs in God differ.

Now, don’t get me wrong…I’ve been exposed to those people for nearly 50 years. It’s sad to be sure, but unfortunately, part of human nature. With so many people there will always be a difference of opinions and beliefs…but his took it to a new level…a very dark and sinister level. It bothered me all day, all evening, and I also woke up several times during the night thinking about it. Then this morning it clarified in my mind…it was all too “familiar”.

I am a student of history, I love reading about different historical events, different time periods, battles, reigns of kings and queens, especially when it delves into the people and the context of history. I enjoy watching documentaries and even docudramas if they are mostly accurate. And one thing I have learned that is important is the “context” of why people behaved as they did…it was their time-period, not ours. The other thing I learned…human nature doesn’t change at the macro level. Meaning, taking people as a whole (i.e. civilization, nation, culture, etc.) they will essentially behave (i.e. human behavior) today as they did 5000, 1000, or 100 years ago…with few exceptions. And that is where this morning brought me “fear”.

I recently wrapped up a month’s long review of England during the reign of King Henry the VIII of England during the 1500’s. And it brought to the forefront of my mind a series of historical events that I will outline:

During the 1500’s English Catholics burned Protestants alive for their beliefs that differed from the Catholic Church, then Protestants burned Catholics alive for their contrary beliefs.

Starting int the late 1400’s and lasting for 350 years the Spanish had their “Spanish Inquisition” in which non-believers, Protestants, and non-devote Catholics were horribly tortured and burned alive.

From about 1100 – 1270 Christians embarked on the “Crusades”, under direction of the Pope, presumably to take back lands in and around the Holy Land and make it safe for pilgrims to visit those lands. The crusaders killed million’s of Muslims in that span of holy war. However, the crusaders weren’t content to kill only Muslims, 10’s of thousands of Jews were killed as well; justification being that Jews killed Christ. But, the crusaders were not done there…10’s of thousands of Christians were also killed by the Christian crusaders. Even Constantinople (center of the Eastern Christian Church) was conquered and sacked by a Christian army, mostly for greed of its riches but also at the behest of the Pope, leader of the western Christian church. Why Constantinople, a city that was the center of the Eastern Christian Church? Because the leader of the Western Christian Church wanted more power, and the wealth of the Eastern Christian Church.

Going back to 300’s (4^th century) there was the Councils of Nicaea. In those two major councils/meetings, it was decided what you had to believe if you were to call yourself a Christian. At the time there was a wide variation in doctrine among the different Christian sects. And there was a major power struggle between the eastern and western Christian Church power centers (the two major Christian sects of the day). The Roman Emperor Constantine, a pagan at the time, saw this as an opportunity to shore up his own power and called for the “councils”…politics at its best.

There were differences of Christian doctrine that were at the center of the dispute between the Eastern Church (Orthodox) and the Western Church (Catholics)…as well as many smaller sects. A primary difference was the nature of God and His relationship with Jesus. The two major camps were divided into the belief in the “Trinity” (different but the same) and the belief in the “Godhead” (distinct and different). The dispute went back and forth for years. Finally the Roman Emperor Constantine (a pagan) decided that Christians must believe in the Trinity…and forced it at the point of a sword, on the threat of death. Oddly, the only written record of Constantine’s baptism as a Christian is on his deathbed by the Arian bishop Eusebius of Nicomedia in 337. And even more oddly…the Arian branch of the Christian church didn’t believe in the Trinity.

Then came the period of 400 – 1100AD…when the Christian Church led horrific campaigns of violence to conquer and force the conversion of Europe’s pagans to Christianity…or be slaughtered…men, women and children…including infants.

Why is this history important? You don’t look so far back in history, just use it as the foundation for today.

Less than a 100 years ago, differences in religious beliefs spawned one of the most brutal reigns of carnage in modern history. The Jews became the targets of Nazi Germany. Based primarily on their religious beliefs Germans slaughtered 6million Jews…shot, starved, gassed, or burned them to death…men, women, and children, even infants.

187 years ago the governor of Missouri made it legal to kill members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. That same Missouri Executive Order 44 allowed the seizure of any member’s property and forced families out of Missouri at the end of a rifle.

What does that have to do with yesterday? Maybe more than what most folks are thinking.

In Nazi Germany it didn’t take much for normal everyday Germans to turn a blind eye to the demonic actions of those that hated Jews so much that they decided to wipe out an entire people, an entire religion. What I read yesterday rang out as the same potential start of things to come. Nazis demonized Jews for their beliefs…then the slaughter began.

For 1700 years Christians had a horrific and bloody history of bigotry, prejudice, murder, genocide, conquest, and worse. Christians, in the name of Christ, have acted in the most demonic way to non-Christians and each other.

What would Jesus Christ say about all of it? What would He encourage us to do today?

I have members of my own family that believe LDS folks don’t believe in Christ, don’t believe in the Bible, that LDS are some kind of devil worshipers and cultists. All of which is untrue…but that doesn’t stop them from their bigotry and un-Christ-like behavior.

Let me be clear…The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is run by those who try their level best to live and guide the church in accordance to Christ’s teachings… none are perfect. Then again no person on earth is perfect. And church members have made mistakes, tragic and terrible mistakes, in the past.

Let me clarify, for the record…

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints believe in Jesus Christ just as He says He is in the New Testament. Scripture testifies, many times in Christ’s own words, that Jesus is the Son of God; Matthew 3:17, John 1:14, John 3:16, John 8:28, John 6:40 plus a hundred more.

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints believe that there is only a single way into Heaven…through Jesus Christ, the Son of God. John 14:6 teaches that clearly, and LDS members believe that without question.

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints are Christians. I don’t care what you have been told, what you have been taught, what you believe…if you don’ think LDS are Christians…then you are mistaken and have been deceived.

When I woke up this morning I understood what had been bothering me since yesterday morning…Satan is alive and doing his work here on earth. As I reflect on the comments from misguided people claiming LDS are not Christian and the comments that LDS are cultists, I now know why I had a flash of fear. Many of thee people were saying that the dead and injured got what they deserved and not to worry about it…because of their religious beliefs.

The same false teachings and influences that have driven Christians to do unspeakable violence for 1700 years is still alive and just below the surface of today’s society. The same kind of justifications for genocide and a holocaust still reside in peoples’ hearts and minds. So many who call themselves Christians do not follow the actual teachings of Christ…they all too often forget the Beatitudes and the Sermon on the Mount and the totality of Christ’s teachings.

Does this make all Christians somehow wicked or evil? Of course not…that is nowhere near true. But, there is ample evidence that there is a bigotry alive today among some that still harbor the principles and desires of those during the 1700 years when Christians forced, with violence, death, torture, and crusades their version of belief onto others.

LDS members must be diligent to honor the LDS statement of faith…

“We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.”

And oddly enough that statement of faith matches exactly the First Amendment in the US Constitution’s Bill of Rights…

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Notice that the very first right guaranteed by the Constitution is freedom of religion, it comes before all others. How many, sad to say, have forgotten that right…and they desire to force their beliefs on others…or condemn them for not accepting untruths.

I beg the questions…

1. Should we as Christians live our faith according to the teachings of Jesus Christ himself?
2. And as proud and patriotic citizens of the United States of America should we live our lives according to that which this great country is based on and not just give lip service to the Constitution?

So let me make this perfectly clear for everyone:

1. I am a flawed man who has made mistakes in his life, I claim no perfection or station above any other.
2. I am a very proud, patriotic, and dedicated American citizen committed to living my life and treating others according to the principles outlined in the US Constitution and by the Founding Fathers.
3. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
4. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, I worship no man, I believe Jesus to be exactly who He says He is, as is well documented in the New Testament.
5. I am a Christian and I try to live according the principles laid out in the scriptures, through the words of Jesus, his Apostles and Prophets. I fail, I fail daily, because I am but a mere man.

I am deeply saddened in my soul to see the violence in the world today. It breaks my heart to see so many people hate others…and demonize those who only wish to believe in and worship God and His Son.

So why did I “fear”? It was only briefly but it was deep and real. Society right now is rife with the same spirit of years past. And most of all…we are a short step away from a man-made catastrophe between each other.

My fear is gone, I’ve written this to declare what I believe, what I see, and as a warning to myself and others. My fear is gone…I have accepted Jesus Christ and my Lord and Savior many years ago. My fear is gone…let man do what he wants, God wins in the end. My fear is gone…I cannot control what others believe or do. My fear is gone…the Lord is my Shepard.

CNN is reporting that Turning Point USA has announced that Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and Glenn Beck are among those who will be completing Charlie’s national college tour. In many ways I can’t think of better folks.

Tucker Carlson is so intelligent and spot on about almost every issue facing America and the world today. He also has the right “read” on most politicians and what is happening in Washington DC. He is a man of faith and belief. He is very down to earth and practical.

Megyn Kelly is brilliant and well-grounded. She often looks at issues from a totally different and fresh perspective. She too appears to be a person of faith and belief.

Glenn Beck is an incredible communicator. He also has the best research staff out there right now. He too is really intelligent and can bore through the weeds to the heart of an issue…as well as connect the dots. He is a man of deep faith and belief. Glenn is very down to earth. Yeah, I don’t get his humor sometimes, but I enjoy his laugh and ability to tell a story or write a book.

There will also be some GOP politicians slotting in as well. I am not so excited about them, actually not at all. They are politicians.

Crap, where do I even start? Who knew Charlie Kirk was going to be murdered? Who knew his murder would ripple through the entire world, especially the US, the way it has? Who knew it would expose so much of so many?

Well, it has exposed a whole lot…and it is disgusting! And I am telling you…it will get worse. I’ve been warning you for years of how bad it was and how bad it will get…well, it’s here.

The most obvious, and probably the most disgusting part, is the celebration of Charlie’s murder by some very sick minds and souls. But to be uncharacteristically kind, I think a lot of the folks making wholly inappropriate comments by expressing jubilation at the cold-blooded murder of Charlie can be attributed to propaganda, brainwashing, and poor judgment. That doesn’t excuse their actions and words, it just helps explain it and soften the condemnation. The others though are just mentally and spiritually sick bastards.

But let’s review what Charlie Kirk actually had to say about all those comments…

Unreal!! Charlie Kirk, being an amazing man, defending those disparaging folks from the grave. When you have a foundation of principles and ethics it shows, quietly, honorably, and strongly. It matches one of my favorites…

“I wholly disapprove of what you say—and will defend to the death your right to say it.” (attributed to Voltaire)

George Orwell (1984) had it right…

“Free speech is my right to say what you don’t want to hear.”

And obviously it all aligns with the United States Founding Fathers, First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States that is part of the Bill of Rights…

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Notice the use of the specific word “abridging”…wanna know why? A lot of people think that the 1^st Amendment is there to prevent the government from eliminating free speech. Wrong!! Well, kinda…they are right to a point. But abridge means to “limit”, “shorten”, “lessen”, “diminish” or “curtail”.

Now go back and read what Charlie Kirk said about ugly speech, gross speech, and even evil speech…

“And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free.”

I do not want to be, and will do everything I can to not be, a hypocrite. Here goes…

In 2022 I wrote extensively about the establishment of the DHS “Disinformation Governance Board. I called it “one of the final stages of totalitarianism”. The following year I revealed this, “The DOJ formed a combined agency ‘task force’ that has been identifying sources of disinformation…”

Also back in 2022 I wrote an article how the FBI is using symbols and speech to label patriots, conservatives, preppers, and anyone who disagrees with the government as potential violent domestic terrorists. In that article I wrote…

“Well, that is an outright and blatant attack on the 1st Amendment’s freedom of speech…pretty obvious in its a factual violation of the Constitution. But the US federal government continues its attack on constitutional rights, freedoms, and liberties…especially freedom of speech.”

In May of 2022 I wrote an article called “Authoritarian(ism)” outlining the key traits of an authoritarian government. Here are the primary traits of authoritarianism:

• Military might and supremacy, a standing army,
• National/central government’s intervention to determine prices,
• Protection of industries from foreign competition,
• Assumption of power/authority not specifically outlined in a constitution.
• Any restriction on any natural rights of the individual.

Oh, what is a “natural right”? John Locke laid that out pretty clearly 400 years ago, natural rights include “freedom of thought, speech, worship, life, liberty, property, and to live life as they choose.” And those natural rights were adopted and enshrined by our Founding Fathers in the Bill of Rights – First Amendment.

Think clearly and carefully of the Federal government’s recent rhetoric out of Washington since Kirk’s assassination. AG Bondi talking about targeting those who use “hate speech”, Stephen Miller stating that the DOJ and DHS will target hate speech, and it goes on and on.

And then there is this…

“We’ll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly, it’s hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart,” Trump said, responding to a question from ABC’s Jonathan Karl. (Politico Sept 2025).

“We’ll probably go after people like you…” What the hell?????

Even Ted Cruz got it right…

“The First Amendment absolutely protects speech,” Cruz stated on 9/16 at POLITICO’s AI & Tech Summit in Washington. “It [the First Amendment] absolutely protects hate speech. It protects vile speech. It protects horrible speech. What does that mean? It means you cannot be prosecuted for speech, even if it is evil and bigoted and wrong.”

Let’s keep the Bill of Rights, especially freedom of speech, alive and vibrant and legally intact. Let’s honor natural rights, the principles of our Founding Fathers…and keep the ethics and beliefs of Charlie Kirk alive…

For years I’ve been telling you how the US will fall into the firm grasp of an authoritarian/totalitarian regime. US citizens begging for relief from chaos, confusion, contention, and conflict will lay the groundwork for them to accept any solution.

So many of us refer to the George Orwell book “1984”, but, do we recognize it when we actually see it staring us in the face?

Late last week I had a conversation with one of my best friends who lives in St. George, Utah. They told me that Kirk’s assassin was LDS but very inactive. Meaning he was not going to church and hasn’t for a long time, same for his family. She also told me he was big time into the whole transgender cult thing. It’s come to light over the weekend that the deviant has a transitioning “boy friend”. Obviously he had lost his way spiritually and mentally.

My experience has told me that LDS church members in the US are overwhelmingly conservative and/or Republicans. And the LDS church in no way endorses or even condones the transgender cult. So this is no “religion” thing at all in a conventional way, it is appears to me that the killer had lost a spiritual connection with God.

Back to the two key points; 1) transgender cult member, 2) mentally ill. We know for a medical fact that the psychology field calls transgenderism “gender dysphoria”…a recognized mental illness. The sad part of this, one of which to take note, is the number of children being shot by transgender cult members. In day cares, in pre-schools, and in churches. And now political assassination at the hands of transgenders.

Just last month Robin Westman attacked a Catholic church shooting and killing 2 children, and wounding 18 more. Problem…Robin Westman was mis-idenitfied as a trans-woman. The shooter was Robert Westman a man firmly in the grips of the transgender cult…suffering from the mental illness of gender dysphoria.

In 2023 Audrey Elizabeth Hale attacked a Christian school and killed 6 people, 3 students, all age 9. Oh wait… Audrey Elizabeth Hale wasn’t the actual mass murderer…it was Aiden Hale. Same person, just that Aiden was again a member of the transgendder cult…suffering from the mental illness of gender dysphoria.

The deciding common threads; 1) transgenderism/mental illness, 2) violent anti-Christian prejudice. More precisely…mental illness and hatred.

Also, notice how the proponents of transgenderism speak of how high a rate of suicide that transgender people suffer from. Of course they do…they are mentally ill. So they have at least one mental illness. But, there is a second that is probably present as well. Paranoid Personality Disorder (PPD).

PPD can lead individuals to have intense distrust and suspicion of others, which may manifest as feelings of hatred or hostility. These individuals often believe that others are trying to harm or demean them, affecting their relationships and social interactions. Sound familiar?

There is also an interesting fact…90% of individuals who commit suicide are depressed. Depression is also factually a mental illness. You have to ask yourself “why” so many, the vast majority, of transgender people suffer from depression. Once again, it is common sense and very obvious…they are mentally pretending to be something they biologically are not. That has to create insurmountable mental conflict…hence, depression.

But why are they killing people? Well, that isn’t due to mental illness for the most part, although it is a factor. What the key here is once again simple…the transgender cult. The entirety of people who support and participate in perpetuating the mental illness of gender dysphoria. That is especially true of the medical field monsters who mutilate people in furthering gender dysphoria.

Now, here is the real key…the part that must be looked at the closest…and should concern you more than anything else. Notice how these killers are targeting those of faith, specifically targeting Christians.

Last month 124 Christians were slaughtered in the Congo…by Muslims. Most were killed by beheading. In June 2025, 200 Christians were killed by Muslims in Nigeria. Most were burned alive. The total number of Christians killed in Nigeria this year has exceeded 7,000. Then there are the 800 Christians killed in Syria just in 2025, mostly women and children. Some estimates put the number of Christians killed each day at 36…one believer every 40 minutes killed for their faith and beliefs.

So what does all this mean? Robinson was a deranged transgender cult member whose hatred of Christians drove him to kill Charlie Kirk…a devote Christian, father, husband, spokesman for all things good. This assassination is just that…a person mentally ill, motivated by political ideology combined with the hatred of Christians. But it is also much deeper…it is the latest attack on good by evil.

Why is that point so important? Because it is not republican vs democrat, it is not liberal vs conservative, it is not a simple difference in ideology. What it is…it is good vs evil at its base level.

Why is that point so important? Because it what dictates how you fight it. You don’t fight evil with evil…it simply doesn’t work…it just creates more evil.

I was watching some videos of, let’s say passionate folks. There was one particular individual I watched over the course of several days. He went from sadness, to anger, and then the last had him posing with a fancy AR-15, mags, battle vest, etc. He was big guy, well-muscled, tight t-shirt, cowboy hat, tattoos that matched his online persona, etc.. His final message was not one of defiance…it was of violence. He is preaching to be prepared, literally, to go to actual war against the lunatic left. With the presence of the AR-15 it was obvious what his message was…or what he wanted it to be.

I don’t know the real reason(s) he is preaching violence…and claiming to be a true believing Christian. Maybe he is just passionate, albeit out of control, maybe he wants “views” to be relevant, maybe he seeks attention and fame (and the associated money) as an influencer. I simple don’t know.

It is easy to get caught up in his kind of bravado, confidence, eloquence, and desire to do something pro-active. The question is…Is it the right message let alone the right violent actions to take?

Depends. If you are an emotional, mentally immature, out-of-control non-believer…he appeals to that desire of revenge and retribution. However, if you are a true believer…you might want to rethink it.

Yes, I am fully aware of Matthew 5. I am also aware that the Bible tells us we are to protect our families. I am also just as aware that we have a God-given right and obligation to protect ourselves and our families.

So what do you do?

In my way of thinking…Get BOLD!! Speak truth at all times. Stand up for righteousness. Don’t allow lies to go unanswered. And protect yourself and family.

Speak plainly that abortion is the murder of unborn babies. Declare the truth of transgenderism being a mental illness and in direct opposition of God. Stand up as Charlie Kirk did. Yup, watch the videos of how Charlie responded to the lunatic leftist garbage they spew. Use his example of truth, facts, and logic. But don’t expect to win over the leftists.

Die-hard liberal leftist lunatics are not likely to simply cave in to your facts, logic, and speaking the truth. But one or two might…so there is some hope. But the key here is you are doing your part to support God. No, God doesn’t need it…but it proves who you worship…whose side you are on…who you love.

And there is my real warning in this article…it is time that you must takes sides. You either support eternal truths which come from God…or you support evil. You must make that decision…and once you do…

STAND UP !

Yes, you can defend yourself and family from physical attack…but don’t go looking for it. The bravest men I’ve ever known…will walk away whenever possible…that is true confidence and bravery.

Responding with evil (i.e. violence or even the threat of it) right now is NOT the right thing to do…it simply is not. But be BOLD…stand up…be counted on the side of right. Put on the armor of God…the whole armor of God.

Pray and be peaceable…then pray some more. Our country, our fellow believers, need prayers more than ever. They also need practical help…donate time and money where appropriate to true-believing Christian causes like your church. We Christians are being slaughtered all over the world, including in the United States…help stop that.

Being peaceable doesn’t mean to lie down and rollover in the face of evil. But it does mean your spirit must profess God, peace, and love…and then pray for what you should do personally.

P.S. If you are offended by my words…too bad. If you see my words as violent…you are mentally ill. If you want to talk this out…have at it…leave a reply.

Normally on the 9/11 anniversary I post something in remembrance, years ago I posted my story of 9/11. Not this year. But, on this anniversary there is still a relevant point…Charlie Kirk.

I spent some time last night accessing several social media websites to read the comments regarding Charlie’s assassination. There were some very heartfelt posts that could touch the heart of anyone…but they were far and few between. At the other end of the spectrum were the radical and insane leftists who celebrated Kirk’s death. It was disgusting and representative of a corrupt and black heart…dare I say, evil.

Immediately after 9/11 the spirit in America was amazing…I had never felt anything like it before. People were kind, considerate, warm, helpful, and just amazing people…true Americans. Where we are 24 years later it is opposite of that…to the point of it being almost incomprehensible. The country is divided politically, socially, economically, judiciously, and in almost every other category that you can come up with. It is unbelievably sad to see.

I am old enough to remember the riots and violence of the 1960’s…it was scary and reached most of America in one form or another. It centered mostly around the Vietnam war, race, and politics. But Americans were not as universally fractured as we are today. It took decades for Americans to overcome most of the fractures of society and to heal to a great degree.

What about the “Don’t ! !” ?

Here is my plea to you…Don’t get involved in the finger pointing. Don’t get into a debate or argument over Kirk’s assassination. Don’t get ugly with those who are celebrating Kirk’s murder. Just don’t…please.

No one who is praising or mocking Kirk’s death will change their view or opinion from anything anyone says. Those people will have to deal with their black hearts at some future time and place. Hopefully they can change their spirit to one of light and love. However, nothing can or will be gained by engaging with those who think ill of Kirk and feel it was karma or anything similar. Just let it go…please.

What I also ask is simple…prayer. Please pray first and foremost for his wife, young children, and extended family. Pray mightily for them. Then, if you have it in you, please pray for our country and citizens. This country is so divided and at odds with each other that we are sitting on a powder keg ready to blow. Don’t let Charlie’s death be the spark that ignites a storm that will do no one any good. Pray for peace and calm and for hearts to be touched and to become tender.
