ENOUGH!

I had a timely blog article ready to post when I got the news of Charlie Kirk’s tragic murder. That post can wait. I am so emotionally charged right now that I must make a public statement. For the last few years of liberal Democrat insanity, I have strived to keep my posts civil and respectful when I really wanted to sink to their level of rhetoric and behavior in opposition. But enough is enough.

It is time for all conservative patriots of faith to call out and aggressively oppose the unmitigated madness and hate-filled attacks that have taken over our great nation. Americans can hardly get through a day now without hearing of some senseless, brutal murder by a radicalized killer. The killer is usually a social misfit basket case who is not even supposed to be within our borders. And virtually every time, the perpetrator is an extreme liberal brainwashed by the mainstream media and Democratic extremists. Typically, they are repeat offenders quickly released from previous crimes. Videos of the heinous acts are taken by those who are more interested in filming the brutality than in rescuing the victim. These videos usually show many bystanders sitting or standing around watching without any attempt to stop the deadly violence. What has happened to the sanctity of human life?

Wednesday was the darkest day for our country in a long, long time–and we have had a lot of dark days recently. Charlie Kirk was the predominant spokesman and defender of the young adult and teen conservative, Christian, and familiy values movement. He was a peaceful protagonist. On the national stage, he championed the wholesomeness of biblical character and American heritage. He brought light to the darkness. But the evil ones of this world, including the liberal, hate-spewing politicians were not going to let him influence their coming-of-age generation Z. Their speech and actions influenced a crazed assassin to snuff out the light of a renowned godly man, husband, and father.

Almost all that is going wrong in America today has a common denominator. Our nation’s cultural sicknesses can be diagnosed as having a common catalyst: the misguided radical socialist Democrats. These ultra-liberals appear to hate everything our country represents.

I hope and pray this will be the “Turning Point” for Christian conservatives. If there is still a chance of saving our country, we have to resort to some of the enemy’s tactics. No, not violence, but we have to become angry enough to do whatever it takes to break the grip that the other half of the country has on us. Review your spheres of influence and press into them proclaiming American values and denouncing the hatred, wokeness, and lunacy of the left. Call out sin for what it is. Be courageous enough to denounce publicly the sins of transgenderism, homosexuality, gay marriage, abortion, violence, antisemitism, and thievery. Stop being silent when you see behavior that is patently wrong. Come to anyone’s rescue who is being bullied or attacked. If you don’t have a concealed carry permit, consider getting one. I carry not only to protect myself and my family but also to intervene if someone else’s life is being threatened.

Finally, and this should have been first, pray for God’s intervention to bring His light into this dark world of spiritual warfare. Pray for peace and security in the America He graciously gave us to steward and preserve. Pray for His protection as we do what we can to protect ourselves and others. I believe God may be waiting to act in a mighty way until He sees us collectively rise up out of desperation to take our country–His country–back.
