Common Sense Commentary: "And that, knowing the time, that now it
is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our
salvation nearer than when we believed." Rom.13:11
When I see, each day, my country going down the tube, like a swirling sink of
water, carrying our Constitution, our freedoms, and our children's futures into
oblivion, I
am dismayed. Not that I didn't see it coming, through the lens of God's Word,
but the speed with which it has come, like a volcanic eruption or the
fire and brimstone upon Sodom, it struck like a bolt of lightning precedes the thunder.
What true men of God, in the similitude of Noah and lot, have read or heard
prophesied in
God's Word, and themselves preached and predicted, is coming to pass before our
eyes... Now.
My own reaction to these series of evil miracles and strong Satanic presence,
is a mixture of horror, sadness, regret and disregard. Horror
at the developing, open persecution of true Christians; Sadness at the
unspeakable loss of the American Constitution, Bill of rights, Freedom, our heritage and world
influence for good; Regret, that I did not do more to reach souls for Christ,
live a more pure and prayerful life, speak up for Truth more loudly and
fight the devil more fervently. And finally, Disregard. Many times
I have regarded my reputation too highly and my calling too lightly. I have been
concerned that I not appear to be a fanatic or extremest. But now, seeing the
eternal seriousness of the present situation, I suddenly don't give a holy "damn"
whether anybody likes me or not or thinks I'm extreme or fanatical, or senile,
or crazy. I disregard what anybody thinks of my ministry or my methods but God, because He is my judge. I must be resolute, immovable. The fact is, the world is going to hell and God has assigned me, and
every Christian, to be a watchman on the wall, a witness for Christ, a spokesman
of truth, and a loyal disciple of Jesus. With that as my
responsibility, in an Anti-Christic bound world immerced in Tribulation, and delivered unto judgment
and a real hell, why do I need reputation, entertainment, a hobby or a good
laugh? What I most need is a faithful heart, a caring spirit, and a fearless
voice. I pray that is what you can expect of this Blog .... until the powers that be shut me
down, arrest me, send me to the mental institution or kill me. I would rather
live and die for the cause of Christ than to cling to old age until I rot away slowly in a nursisng home, or give my life to any other
cause in this tumultuous, sin cursed world. God is still ... so good. RB

Thanks Dad, what a blessing!
We professing Christians needed the "loyalty check".
