Back in the 1970’s, a certain saying was popularized…“The Devil made me do it! The Devil made me do it!”
.
And this was merely mocking Christians, who were seemingly obsessed with pointing the finger at the Devil.
.
But the horrifying fact is, the Devil does indeed cause the vast percentage of the world’s inhabitants to do a great number of things!

TODAY COMPARED TO NAZI GERMANY
.
A leading doctor in the field of vaccines was being interviewed about all the lies, embellishments, cover-ups, and misinformation coming forth during the pandemic.
.
And during the interview, this virus-expert noted the obsessive, even fanatical behavior by the leaders and press.
.
And he then compared it to the fanatical/irrational behavior of Germany as they blindly and zealously followed all the Twentieth-Century Nazi extremism in Germany.

TODAY’S FANATICAL ZEAL
.
In other words, this doctor/scientist was amazed that so many had become extremists in their handling those lockdowns and mandates.
.
And that doctor/scientist further noted that the current radical, authoritarian behavior of so many of today’s politicians and major-media operatives is also akin to the radical Nazi madness of that former era.
.
And this same virologist agreed with one of his colleague’s analysis of this phenomenon, calling it “Mass Formation Psychosis” of many societies around the world.

EXAMPLES OF MASS PSYCHOSIS
.
And as an example, that notable virologist cited many such things, like, for example, people wearing masks while driving all alone or walking in a forest!
.
And another observer also noted that in one U.S. state, the hospitals are firing “non-vaccinated” employees and replacing with vaccinated employees WITH COVID!
“This is absolute societal madness!”, said the observer (also a paraphrase).
.
And one conservative news-site reported that a 3-year-old was refused a much-needed heart surgery by three countries, simply because his parents were not yet vaccinated!
.
.

.
“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do…”
John 8:44
.
Well, many in the Christian community might rather analyze this pandemic phenomenon as being of a spiritual origin, just as these two above verses reveal…“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do”.
.
After all, Ephesians 2:2 says concerning the earth’s inhabitants…
“Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world,
according to the prince of the power of the air,
the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.”
.
This passage reveals that the unsaved masses are indwelt by an antichrist spirit, “the Prince of the Power of the Air”.

“…and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast…”
Revelation 13:4
.
So, why should Christians be surprised to see these massive societal movements?
If Satan is “the god of this world”, as Corinthians calls him, is it any wonder that the unsaved multitudes are so willing to follow him?
.
And not only on this one issue of being vaccinated/masked/locked-down/terminated, but willingly compliant in so many other areas of today’s societal issues!

“…but can ye not discern the signs of the times?”
Matthew 16:3
.
And so, what’s the bottom line to all this information?
How are we Christians to respond to this pandemic mass-insanity?
.
Jesus rebuked God’s chosen people by saying…
“O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky;
but can ye not discern the signs of the times?”
Matthew 16:3
.
It should be obvious that there now is a growing movement to turn this world into a totalitarian police-state.
And there are enough deluded people in the world who are following after the leaders of Lucifer’s antichrist world-system, who are taking us there.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“…enter thou into the joy of thy Lord”
Matthew 25:23
.
And so, today’s encouragement is for God’s people to plead that we may be able to walk by all the Bible’s “exceeding great and precious promises” (See 2nd Peter 1:4)
.
And all those who choose to renounce this increasingly evil world-of-selfishness, will begin their joyful sojourn up the heavenward pathway!
.
And very soon we will enter into the wonderful Promised Land, “the Land flowing with milk and honey”!
.
In that Land, we’ll be forever happy!
.
And we’ll be forever young!

FINALLY WALKING UPWARD INTO THE HIGHWAYS OF ETERNITY
.
Day by day, you will find yourself walking, like the Disciples, spreading the precious Gospel seed wherever the Spirit leads.
.
Taking the lovely name of Jesus, with every word spoken.
Walking through this sin-darkened world, witnessing to those who take notice that of a truth, Jesus is present within you.
Even like faithful Enoch, walking through the highways and byways of life in this world, spreading the Gospel-seed of unpretentious love.
.
Day by day, you will become more and more closed in with God. Moment by moment, your heart will become intertwined with God’s heart, eventually two hearts beating as one heart.
.
And just like Enoch, when the appointed time of sojourning on earth is finally done…you will walk onward…and upward…and into the highways and byways of eternity… (“And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.” Genesis 5:24).
