What do you do when your government is behaving like criminals? Whine, huff and puff, write your congressperson, join a protest march? Wait, I remember someone who had a better idea. It went something like this:

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

So why haven’t we? Why doesn’t THIS make the top comment of the day? It is the TRUTH. THIS is the remedy for them taking away our right to LIFE, LIBERTY, and THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS none of which we are actually free to do any longer. I say that because we live and work to pay the warmongers and globalists not set ourselves and our kids up for a better life. That ship sailed. We let it happen and this historic document - The Declaration of Independence- that is the basis for the founding of this -what used to be a God-fearing nation- has the remedy in it. We just have no idea how to execute it 😞

The America we believe in hasn't existed for a long time. Many know this and many more are just waking up to this fact. It is more than political. It is spiritual. The crisis is well on its way to building to a conclusion. All you can do is prepare and get right with the Lord.

Agree! I don’t see any other way out. The crisis is definitely well on its way and the momentum has no way to stop. The conclusion is building for sure!! How long that takes….. and I’m right and ready 😉

Or maybe God is moving. I have been trying to watch everything on the recent Asbury College revival and it’s spread to other campuses and locations. My niece packed up her 9 year old son and took the 6 hour drive from Michigan three days after the start of it. She spent 4 and a half hours inside the chapel stating, “God was there”. Four hours that went by as if they were minutes. I have read similar accounts online. Today I watched a documentary made in the 1980’s on the 1970 Asbury College revival. The similarities are astounding. 53 years apart, both revivals started with in a week of each other in February. Accounts from the then college president of Asbury College are almost identical to accounts by those from the last week’s in February. The students involved in the 1970 revival sounded just like my niece’s account, (who btw., is almost 40), so definitely not a student type. Revival broke out then, as now in many other areas. I believe God is moving in many places now, to uncover, and restore the Light. Revival doesn’t just happen in one way, but in many ways but gathering as God is moving. In many ways it is exciting.

I think most Americans are still in shock from the systematic programming done through public schools and warped history. A lot of people are just catching up on real history and waking up to government corruption. The shock hasn’t worn off. Add technology which enables us to vent our grievances and the pent-up frustration is released into cyberspace without any real change.

The normalcy bias, comfortable existence (such as it is), and fear of cancellation/ostracism. Cycle of countries.....

I always figured that the reason the US isn't specifically mentioned in Rev. is because we either become part of Russia, China, or are at civil war without interest in the rest of the world which the rest of the world would happily watch implode, including too many citizens.
