It seems our nation has reached a new low and a new high simultaneously. In the natural climate when low and high pressures meet, there’s a storm. The two forces at work cannot coexist, no matter how hard the social engineers, intellectuals, and news media enforces conformity to their globalist agenda.
Storms don’t conform. They transform by destroying what isn’t built to last. Jesus says the fool builds his house on sand (collective ideology being the sand in this case). He said that because those dwellings cannot endure reality. They are human-made, and weak. Intellectually soggy. Wishy washy.
Right now the prognosticators would have us believe, guns are bad unless they are used to murder your political opponents. Then, guns are good. It’s ok to murder people who do not want to build their houses on sand. If we kill those people, our pathetic dwellings will still sink in the storm. The non-existence of political dissent only makes the house built on sand more precarious.
If your house was poorly built, sinking, about to be destroyed by a storm maybe literally or figuratively speaking, ought not a voice crying in the wilderness be a good thing?
As I’ve discovered lately in examining my disposition to hate modern art, I’ve discovered that even things I hate can teach me about myself. Art that is ugly to look at, like Picasso’s Mademoiselles… is disturbing. Who wants to be disturbed, I say?
So, this leads me to ask myself, which is a useful expression of humility perhaps, what reason should I expect to never be disturbed? To only experience happiness?
Our collective obsession with feelings and feeling good has become the end all of our modern culture. Whether we’re eating McDonald’s, snacking on social media bits (which are also addictive), or flattering ourselves how enlightened and ‘good’ we are to ourselves and our neighbors, we are all certainly deceived.
A cloak has been laid up on our world, one of terror, chaos, darkness and confusion. Let us not be deceived that we are safe from storms, if we’ve built our collective dwellings on anything but Jesus Christ.
Heed His warning, for a storm is coming!
