Daily Devotional, Year 4 – August 29

.

“Here Comes the Thought Police!”

.

Part 2 “Defunding Police or Defunding Freedom?”

To read Part 1, click here…August 11 (“Here Come the Thought Police!” Part 1)

.

Most everyone remembers when politicians trumpeted the call to “Defund the police! Defund the police!”

And so, many cities began a campaign to do just that!

.

***“After all”, they said, “people just need a helping hand! And police are rather evil!”***

DEFUND THE POLICE 2.0

Well, if there’s one thing today’s major media is good at, it is demonizing any entity that those media overlords wish to eliminate.

.

And Satan is now marshalling his antichrist loyalists to prepare society for the last great battle (Armageddon).

ANARCHY

.

Well, as you probably already know, the results of defunding and defaming the police brought disastrous results!

.

**Those same “Defund the police” cities have become increasingly lawless and unresponsive to crime.**

.

But the question which many are scratching their heads over, is this: “Why on earth could defunding the police be a good thing?!”

“…giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;”

1st Timothy 4:1, 2

.

Well, let’s not be naive!

.

The truth of the matter is, that many of these same people who called so loudly to defund the police, are actually planning to bring society under total authoritarian control!

George Orwell’s “1984”

.

In George Orwell’s little book, 1984, he presented a world in which the rulers had succeeded in complete totalitarian control over the masses.

.

**And there were even “Thought Police” to control the people’s thoughts.**

.

THE THOUGHT POLICE HAVE FINALLY ARRIVED!

.

Well, about the only thing that Orwell had miscalculated in this predictive novel was the date for this super-society to come into reality. He was about 40 or 50 years off!

But that day has finally arrived in which society can (and increasingly will) be brought under the control of authoritarian rulership!

.

And now, high-tech devices and artificial intelligence are just beginning to censure those who do not hold to the maxims which our society now approves and condones.

THE NEW LAWS SAME AS THE OLD LAWS

.

And wouldn’t you know it…

.

**…just like in every totalitarian society, past and present, the new “Thought Police” are beginning their war against the Bible.**

THE BIBLE FORETOLD OF THIS DAY!

.

It’s truly frightening to see all this totalitarianism being ratcheted up so swiftly.

.

But the Bible foretold that this day would finally arrive…

…”And that no man might buy or sell,

save he that had the mark,

or the name of the beast,

or the number of his name.”

Revelation 13:17

.

Now this verse by itself may not give us enough understanding into the current-day phenomenon of censoring.

.

“Buy the truth, and sell it not!”

.

But this next verse complements the previous verse found in Revelation 13:17.

.

This complementary verse is found in Proverbs 23:23…“Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.”

.

Now from this and other similar verses, it is revealed that “buying and selling” actually has to do with preaching the Gospel of Jesus.

.

And so, the Bible prophesied that the day would come when the true and unvarnished Word of God would be cut off…“And that no man might buy or sell (the truth)” (parenthetical comment by website editor)

THE “GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY”

Proverbs 25:25

.

But the Good News in all this coming totalitarianism, is that God’s Word is still available to read!

.

And most everyone is familiar with this next verse…“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32

.

Yes, the continuing search for knowledge of the Bible and the Bible’s Jesus will make us free indeed!

THE END

.

TODAY’S FEATURED SIGN

.

THE WOMAN ON THE ALTAR CONSTELLATION

.

“Let my prayer be set forth

.

before Thee as incense;

.

and the lifting up

.

of my hands as the evening sacrifice.”

Psalm 142:2

.

LOCATING THIS CONSTELLATION…

**This “Golden Altar” Constellation is only seen in winter through spring, in mid-sky.**

.

It is to the south of the “Fleeing Woman Constellation” (AKA Ursa Major or The Big Dipper).

.

**The “Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12” Constellation is in the northeastern sky in this sketch.**

.

You would be facing east and looking very high up almost to mid-sky to see this constellation group this way.

.

**The altar is farther south but still in the eastern sky. This altar itself is commonly known as “Leo Major“, with the smoke rising being “Leo Minor“.**

.

TOMORROW…

August 30 (and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.)
