First thing I saw on the news today was about the attack on police officers in Texas. Has our society sunk so low that some of us deliberately attack those who protect us? This nation has become corrupt like Israel of old. The prophet Isaiah says...
Isaiah, Chapter 1 (WEB)
4 Ah sinful nation,
a people loaded with iniquity,
a seed of evildoers,
children who deal corruptly!
They have forsaken Yahweh.
They have despised the Holy One of Israel.
They are estranged and backward.
5 Why should you be beaten more,
that you revolt more and more?
The whole head is sick,
and the whole heart faint.
6 From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it:
wounds, welts, and open sores.

As a nation, we have chosen to forget God and do whatever we want!!! All branches of government are corrupt. There is no justice- there are two standards of law, one for the political elite and one for the common man.
How long can these things continue? Until something like Israel's fate befalls us?
Isaiah, Chapter 1 (WEB)
7 Your country is desolate.
Your cities are burned with fire.
Strangers devour your land in your presence,
and it is desolate,
as overthrown by strangers.
8 The daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard,
like a hut in a field of melons,
like a besieged city.
9 Unless Yahweh of Armies had left to us a very small remnant,
we would have been as Sodom;
we would have been like Gomorrah.

Those of us who love freedom, arm yourselves, prepare yourselves for the calamities to come. Reconcile yourself to the fact that you will have to fight to remain free. To those who have strayed from God- repent (that is, change your ways), return to God and follow HIS ways.
It is one thing to fight against police, and quite another to confront God. The time will come when Jesus will return and what side will you be on???
2 Thessalonians, Chapter 1 (WEB)
1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you towards one another abounds; 4 so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure. 5 This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer. 6 Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you, 7 and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, 8 giving vengeance to those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus, 9 who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might, 10 when he comes to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired among all those who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed) in that day.

I have said enough- will you listen or not?
