“TRUTH vs propaganda!”

 prop·a·gan·da

/ˌpräpəˈɡandə/

unknown.svg

noun

  1. 1. 
    information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.



The word(s) above is/are taken from the dictionary.  No additional information has been added to them.  My reason for stating them in this manner is to make a point, and that point is TRUTH is the enemy of propaganda.  The words “especially of a biased or misleading nature” let’s us KNOW that propaganda is a tool of the devil to sway people who haven’t grounded themselves in THE TRUTH.  My mind immediately goes to Exodus 20:3, the first of the Ten Commandments.  The English Standard Version of Exodus 20:3 states “"You shall have NO OTHER gods before ME.”  “This world” as a whole has devolved into a society that has drifted so far from what Scripture instructs mankind to be that there is very little structure for society any longer.  Doing things with ORDER and RESPECT for the rule of law is what our nation was founded on.  


Imagine going to the capital building and walking in during a session of congress to explain to the “servants” chosen to “represent” WE THE PEOPLE that your life isn’t fair and they were fired, to clean out their things and go home!  Most of them deserve the aforementioned fate, but we have RULES that prevent that from happening.  But we also have RULES that state ONE PERSON, ONE VOTE!  According to a Cornell Law School article, “The One-Person One-Vote Rule refers to the rule that one person’s voting power ought to be roughly equivalent to another person’s within the same state.”  When that right is abused, it in essence deprives another’s right to be counted equally!  This is referred to as the “equal protection clause” in Amendment XIV of the United States Constitution, which in parts states “No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;”.  


The elected leaders have no more GOD given rights than the invalid on life support in the local hospital.  We do GIVE THEM a certain amount of respect, but they have to earn keeping that privileged position.  When that respect is gone, faith in their leadership abilities is gone as well.   The previously mentioned ORDER and RESPECT has been violated leading to a chaotic environment.   


When we get the ORDER and RESPECT out of STRUCTURE OF GOD by placing other gods before YAHWEH, we have jeopardized the FREEDOM that GOD grants us.  The tyranny of sin is something that is an anchor that most souls are unable to overcome.  JESUS says in John 14:27 “PEACE I leave with you; MY PEACE I GIVE TO YOU. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”  Abandoning HIS PEACE, HIS ORDER and HIS RESPECT leaves chaos.......which is exactly what we are experiencing now!  Only we who have HIS PEACE can survive this chaos! JESUS says in John 6:44 “No one can come to ME unless the FATHER WHO sent ME draws him.”  


John Adams is quoted as saying “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.  It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”  Our founders KNEW that the ORDER and RESPECT must be at the forefront of our republic.  Just as the first commandment shows “You shall have NO OTHER gods before ME”, to have PEACE we must keep JESUS preeminent in our lives.  I understand that some people might say that we have to separate the church from the business of the state, but John Adams thought differently!  Unless we get back to the ORDER of the late 1700’s, we WILL NOT have PEACE!
