Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2024-448: Liberty via Tyranny

My question of the moment is, “Can we reestablish a nation of liberty without imposing tyranny?”

This is a serious question.  We have watched the forces of the cultural Marxist take over all the instruments of public debate, use them to shut down any opposing opinion and brainwash the debaters.  If you’re paying attention, you know what’s going on in our educational system, the media, weaponized government agencies, and so forth.  Of course, if you were one of the brainwashed masses you think that’s the way it supposed to be.  You live in 1984 and enjoy every moment of it.

For those of us who are still a part of the unwashed masses we want to go back to the days when the Bill of Rights was actually believed in and followed.  We want our liberty back.  The washed masses are not going to give it up easily.  Part of that is because they are so mentally modified that they don’t understand what the issues are.  Another part of that is that they are the party of violence, oppression, and narcissism.  They’ve used illegitimate methods to gain control, and they will fight to the death to keep it.  The days of agreed-upon principles are gone.  All you have to do is look at what the president has been doing with the pardons, the spending allocations, and the use of the justice system to dominate, control and stomp down on those who want to live as a free people.

Can we get the reins back without imposing despotic tyranny?  The easiest way of course is to take over and force our agenda.  Use their techniques.  Brainwash right back.  Riot in the streets.  Use fear and force.  The only problem with that is in the long run, it won’t work.  The French revolution tried it, and it led to Napoleon.

Can it be done?  Yes. but it will require something that I’m not sure we still have.  It will demand that each and every person who still has goodwill and understands the Constitution to stand up and be counted on a daily, minute by minute basis.  It means that we never let anything go by without challenging it.  It means being embarrassed, possibly.  It definitely means being inconvenienced.  In time if enough of us stand up, we will gradually shame other people into adopting an attitude of liberty.

It can’t happen without revival.  Pray that God will instill backbone and righteousness in those who are believers and convict those who are not.
