[Following is an article by Rick Joyner that is a warning of the Police State that is being formed in the US by President Obama and his Administration. It is my opinion that President Obama and his Administration are a group of godless people with Satanic motivation. I believe that what they are trying to accomplish; his “TRANSFORMATION;” is Satanic, the ultimate purpose of which is to hand the reigns of US power over to Satan's son, the Antichrist and his One World Government. This is being facilitated by a godless Cabal including the US Media and all the godless in positions of power in the US.]
Too
Big To See
MorningStar Prophetic Bulletin #79 - July 8, 2013, Rick Joyner
At
this writing, the saga of Edward Snowden still dominates the news.
There may have never been a more poignant example of how easily our
media and our elected representatives can take their eyes off the
ball and begin to major on minors. Snowden may be a traitor, or he
may be a hero, but he is not the real story here. Chasing after the
story of Snowden’s plight is like trying to swat a gnat when there
is a lion in the room about to pounce.
No
doubt Snowden revealed secret information illegally. That makes him
a criminal, but the real issue is what he exposed: the truth that
there has never been a more expansive and intrusive spying on its
own citizens by a government in history, as ours is now doing to us.
What
our government is guilty of is far worse than anything Snowden did,
regardless of his motives. There has never been a more blatant and
dangerous violation of our Constitution, Bill of Rights, or a more
far-reaching abuse of power by the American Government in history.
Pursuing Snowden for his crime may be appropriate, but we should
have ten thousand agents going after the ones who did this to the
American people for every one that is chasing Snowden.
“The
Road to Hell is Paved with Good Intentions.”
This
is a popular saying because it has so often proven true. Our
Government is claiming that it only had the best of intentions for
gathering almost unlimited information on every American—that it
was done to protect us from terrorist attacks and criminals. Some
have reasoned that if we are not terrorists or criminals, then we
should have nothing to worry about. Really? This is the same
rationale that every police state in history used to set up
totalitarian control over its people.
Are
these motives true? We have a growing mountain of evidence that this
most basic violation of every American’s privacy is already being
used for other sinister purposes, like suppressing political
opposition and even destroying the businesses and wealth of those
who support causes counter to the Administrations. This is tyranny
at its most basic level and the foundation of every police state. If
we buy into the good intentions excuse, we are the most naïve sheep
ever led to the slaughter.
We
have a long trail of evidence now proving that for several years the
tactics of a police state have been slowly implemented in America.
What is worse (and it does get worse) is that what Snowden brought
to light is how our Government has built an apparatus for the most
terrifying police state there has ever been. They not only have the
power to see me typing these words right now, but they also have the
power to watch you reading them. That is not paranoia; it is a fact
that has been acknowledged. This is Orwellian prophecy fulfilled.
Why
Is America Going So Meekly?
The
whole world is outraged by what has come to light by our NSA
domestic spying network. They became even more alarmed when they
found out that it is not just American citizens whose communications
and movements are being monitored, but their citizens too and even
they themselves. It was disclosed that soon the NSA will have the
capability of doing the same with almost everyone on the planet. The
question most of the world is now asking is why are American
citizens being so passive about this?
Why
did our media and elected officials suddenly become so preoccupied
with Snowden and suddenly stop protesting the NSA’s domestic
spying? Did the NSA have something on them that they were able to
hold over their heads? The fact that information obtained by the NSA
is already being used in this way has been implied, and the evidence
sure looks like it. However, even if it is not being done, it will
be suspected from now on. What else could have gotten the media and
our elected representatives off of an issue this big to focus
everything on Snowden?
Even
the left leaning Politico carried
a story lamenting that Snowden’s greatest fear was coming to
pass—that the greatest threat to our freedom, possibly ever, could
be revealed and nothing would be done about it. Is this something
that is too big to see, too big to believe?
Snowden
broke his oath as an intelligence officer, and he broke the law by
exposing classified information. This does make him a criminal.
Being a criminal may discredit him in the eyes of most people, but
Snowden may be the most noble, courageous criminal in U.S. history.
He committed a crime and then openly exposed himself. He may well
have done this to keep an even more sacred oath—to defend the
Constitution against enemies both foreign and domestic. Regardless
of his motives, what he did was to give us a chance to save our
Republic.
The
evidence points to Snowden having an awakening to what he and many
others were being used by the Government to do, and he resolved to
set it right. He claims he did what had to be done while there was
still time to stop this most frightening tyranny. There are many
factors that do not line up for Snowden to have done this as a
traitor, or an agent of another government. Even so, the reason he
did this is not the main issue here. The issue is what the NSA is
doing.
What
our Government is doing spying on Americans through the NSA is
appalling. Yet when you combine it with the other cascading
revelations about the use of the IRS, the FBI, and the DOJ to
undermine or destroy political opponents, we must see that not only
is the apparatus of the most terrible police state now in place, but
the tactics of a police state are already being used.
The
ACLU Joins Conservatives
This
may be almost as shocking as what the NSA is doing to us, but it is
true. The ACLU stood up boldly and quickly to declare that what the
NSA is doing is the biggest violation of our Constitution ever, and
they filed a suit against the Government. Right now the ACLU is
demonstrating more courage, wisdom, and leadership in this crisis
than even the Republican leadership in Congress.
All
that our country was founded and built upon is at stake, and our
fate will be decided over the next few months. We are now facing
something much bigger than any Democratic or Republican Party issue.
If this is allowed to stand, our Republic is doomed. We will soon be
under the yoke of the most oppressive totalitarian state in history,
made possible by our modern technology.
Another
Revolution?
It
has now fallen upon us to do what our Founders did when they risked
their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to throw off the
yoke of the oppressor. The American Revolution was not a tax revolt
as those who twist history would have us believe. The stifling and
increasing taxation was number seventeen on their list of
grievances. Far worse for the colonists were things like having
their children kidnapped and made servants on British ships, having
their property abused and even confiscated, and being treated like
an occupied people by the British army. The things our own
Government is doing to us now are worse.
The
American Revolution is unique in history because it was begun and
led by the wealthiest of the colonists, not the disenfranchised.
This has not happened before or since. Those who signed
the Declaration
of Independence were
the 1%. If you are prone to think they did this out of greed, not
wanting to pay more taxes, there is overwhelming evidence to the
contrary. They risked their fortunes, when they had something to
risk, in the face of almost impossible odds. Many of them paid the
price. Two of the signers of the Declaration
of Independence knew
that the moment they signed, they had lost everything because
British forces were camped right next to their estates. They signed
anyway.
All
who signed the Declaration
of Independence knew
that if they did not win the war they were starting, they would all
be hung as traitors. They did this while knowing they were starting
a war against the most powerful army in the world, and they did not
even yet have an army. No one in the world gave them a chance. They
signed anyway. Then they endured five years of almost constant
defeats, each year looking more hopeless than the last. Yet they
fought on. We are again in need of such noble, resolute souls.
We
cannot let what our Founders, and so many others who have sacrificed
so much for us to have this freedom, be lost on our watch. It is now
going to take the same kind of courage and fortitude to save the
Republic as it took to found it. It is our time. Will we measure up?
The
zeal with which our Government is going after Snowden should cause
even the most naïve to be suspicious. Forcing the planes of other
Heads of State to be grounded out of fear Snowden may be on them is
not only extreme—it’s unprecedented. Snowden has obviously done
all the harm that he can do, so why this obsession? Obviously, it is
to make him an example to any others who might be considering
blowing the whistle.
If
it is proven that Snowden is a traitor or that he did this as an
agent of a foreign government, then he must be tracked down and
prosecuted. If he did it for the reasons he claims, and at this
writing this seems to be the case, then he deserves the Medal of
Freedom, not prosecution.
Are
We The “Useful Idiots?”
Marx
detested liberals, calling them “useful idiots.” He knew they
were so naïve and easily manipulated that they could be used until
absolute power had been seized. Then the liberals and the
intelligentsia would be the first to be snuffed out. That has been
the case with every totalitarian power to date. Why would anyone
continue to think it would be different this time?
Remember
Einstein’s definition of insanity—doing the same thing over and
over but expecting different results? How is it that those who are
supposed to be the smartest get so fooled every time? We should be
encouraged that the ACLU woke up so fast to this unprecedented
threat. Liberals are actually the most at risk from totalitarian
control, but like the Jews in the Holocaust going to the showers
thinking they were actually going to get a shower, the same tragedy
is repeated over and over.
Idealism
is a drug that makes you feel good while it is killing you. There is
no political party, group, or single American that is not at risk
from what we now have hanging over us. Everything America was born
for and stands for is now threatened. We have all been duped, but
now we need to all wake up or we may never wake up.
Even
if our government officials did have good intentions in setting up
this all-powerful, all-seeing domestic spying apparatus, who is to
guarantee that those who succeed them will have the same good
intentions? This cannot be allowed to stand.
Even
if this was done with the best of intentions, good intentions are no
excuse for violating the Constitution. Every officer and elected
official takes an oath to defend the Constitution from enemies both
foreign and domestic. Those who authorized and constructed the NSA
spy apparatus have violated this oath, knowingly or unknowingly. We
should give a pass to those who do what Snowden did—reveal that
which so threatens our liberty and is in such obvious violation of
the Constitution. Those who continue to defend this most blatant of
all violations of the 4th Amendment against unlawful search and
seizure are obvious enemies of all that America was built on and has
stood for—and they are not just enemies of the people—this is a
crime against humanity, not just America.
Our
Loving Enemies
Last
year the Russian newspaper Pravda published
an article on the evidence that proved that freedom of the press no
longer exists in America. Sometimes your enemies will tell you
things your friends won’t, but you need to hear. Pravda may
have been gloating, but they were right. It has been obvious for a
long time that the mainstream media in America is, at the very
least, inhibited. Yet this makes it look totally controlled. Even
so, we have reason for hope.
A
reason for hope is that now only about 35% of Americans get their
news from the mainstream media, and that percentage is continuing to
decrease. Blogs and alternative news sources are now where Americans
are getting their information. The majority of Americans are
smarter, more knowledgeable, and more resourceful than the present
Administration or the mainstream media gives them credit for.
Even
so, alternative news sources are also under threat as the Government
moves to tax internet use, which brings in the IRS. The KGB was
right when it was disclosed that the KGB never thought of the CIA as
their counterpart, but rather the IRS. They could see better than we
could that the Government’s real power to control its citizens was
the IRS. Lately, we have just begun to understand how right they
were.
The
abuses that have just been revealed about how the IRS was used to
target this Administration’s political opponents are already
looking like the tip of the iceberg. With Obamacare set to be
managed by the IRS, it will put all of our records, health and
financial, in their hands and in their control, with the authority
to draw from our accounts without our permission. Might that explain
why the head of the IRS visited the White House over 160 times in
this Administration, three times more than even the most frequently
visiting Cabinet member? We would have to be the most blind and
naïve people of all time not to see the pattern of where this is
headed.
Egypt—The
New Leaders of The Free World?
Without
visible leadership, Egyptians have thrown off their yoke a second
time in two years. Granted they are just entering a long and hard
struggle for their freedom. It is likely that the struggle in Egypt
will get much worse before it gets better. However, they are
demonstrating the one crucial ingredient that is essential to gain
and maintain freedom—courage.
It
is a tell-tale revelation that the U.S. Administration is only
grudgingly backing the new freedom movement (which is really the
first one reawakened) and laments the overthrow of President Morsi
of the Muslim Brotherhood. We claim to be concerned about how this
duly elected President was removed, but Morsi abdicated his
legitimacy as a Constitutional President when he started
unilaterally changing the Constitution, suspending the Egyptian
Supreme Court, and taking other such unconstitutional actions.
Morsi
put allegiance to the Muslim Brotherhood mission of implementing
Sharia above the Egyptian Constitution. So the people again did what
our American Founding Fathers said every citizen and every American
has the right and responsibility to do if our Government starts
violating the Constitution. That was the stated reason for the
Second Amendment—the right of American citizens to bear arms must
not be infringed, so that the American people would keep in their
hands the power to throw off the tyranny if our Government went
awry.
I
am not advocating forceful resistance yet, but our Government has
gone awry and has built the most threatening instruments of tyranny
ever devised. Can we trust anyone with that power, especially when
they have already been proven to abuse it?
Our
Government, with its checks and balances, was devised to protect us
from what it is now starting to do to us. This is happening because
you can have the best form of government, yet still have bad
government, if you have weak or bad people in it. Those who now have
the authority to bring the checks and balances have proven too weak
or timid to use it.
At
the end of the Book of Revelation, the cowardly are the first to be
thrown into the lake of fire, even before murderers, deceivers, and
those who have done all other manner of abominable acts. The
Republican leadership in Congress has been so impotent and cowardly
in standing against what is being done to us that it could very well
be the cause of the end of the Republican Party, even if we are able
to preserve the Republic.
Because
of our present lack of principled, courageous, and resolute
leadership, it may take the same kind of public uprising in America
to throw off the yoke we are now being shackled with. We do not have
time to cry over the vacuum of leadership. If we are to recover our
Government that is “of the people, for the people, and by the
people,” it just may be the best thing for the people to have to
do it.
SOLUTION:
Americans,
get ready to arise. Get ready for a second American Revolution to
recover the principles and the freedoms won by the first one.
We
must also know that, in such times as these, some of the greatest
patriots will be branded traitors, and some of the worst traitors
can be branded patriots. We must resolve now that we will not be
swayed by how we are portrayed by our Government, by our media, or
even by the majority of Americans. We must resolve to just do the
right thing with the conviction that liberty is worth paying any
price to preserve.
If
we go down in history as traitors while trying to do the right
thing, we can be comforted that it will all be straightened out at
the Judgment Seat of Christ. Regardless of what men may think of us
now, we must take a stand for what is right for the sake of what is
right and for our children. We must not be the generation that lost
what so many paid such a dear price to give us. We must do the right
thing because it is the right thing, leaving the consequences to the
One in whom we have put our trust.
If
our Founding Fathers had lost The Revolutionary War, they would have
been counted among history’s worst villains, and they would have
been hung as traitors. That was the risk they took, and throughout
most of the war, it looked like that was how it would end up. They
stood for what they did because they knew it was right, not because
they thought they would win. For five years it looked like they had
little chance of actually winning. That is the kind of courage that
eternal values stand on.
Right
now our Government seems to be holding all the cards and all the
power. However, we have divinely powerful weapons, such as truth,
honor, integrity, and love—even love for those who may
misunderstand what we are doing and for those we may have to fight
against. Above all, we have such love for our King that we will
never surrender or retreat.
Almost
all of our present representatives in Government are proving that
they are what the Lord called “hirelings.” The system has gone
so awry that it promotes people of the lowest character into some of
the highest positions. There are some true and noble souls still in
Government, both as elected officials and bureaucrats, but they are
rare. If we are to preserve our Republic, there must be a revolution
in the way we choose our leaders and representatives.
For
those who are in the Government who are of a different spirit, some
will have to do what Snowden did—be a whistleblower. They will
have to sound the alarm and be willing to take the heat. There will
be heat because one cannot stand in the way of totalitarian control
without repercussions.
For
our part, let us not be so quick to judge them, but look at what
they are exposing. The only thing that makes sense out of the
Administration’s over-the-top pursuit of Snowden, who has likely
already done all the damage he can do, is now to make an example of
him to keep others in line who may be considering doing something
similar. The present Administration has become known for being the
most severe and brutal in dealing with whistleblowers, so it will
take uncommon courage to do it. We should know not to pile on just
because our Government and the media do.
This
is not to prematurely justify Snowden, as we do not yet know what
his real motives were. However, what we do know is that a government
that starts looking at its own citizens as the greatest threat has
itself become our greatest threat. That is precisely what our
Department of Homeland Security did when it put out the memo that
the greatest terrorist threats to America come from Evangelical
Christians who believe in the end-time prophecies of The Bible,
Veterans, and Second Amendment groups. What should be to everyone’s
shock is how they left off of this threat list the one group that
has been responsible for almost every terrorist attack in the last
half century—Islamic extremists!
We
can’t look to those who are in Government at this time for
leadership. However, that does not mean we do not have the kind of
leadership available in America that we will need for the times to
come. We must all take the leadership we can within our own circles
and be ready to link up with others when the trumpet call is heard.
The
Tipping Point
President
Obama said that we would need to have the discussion about trading
freedom for security. As we see in Scripture, even Caiaphas, the
High Priest who condemned Jesus to death, can be used to prophesy. I
think Obama prophesied when he said this. America is right now
choosing between the security of a prison and freedom.
We
can count on 30% of Americans to choose security. These will side
with the Government and believe Government to be the answer to every
problem. The majority of those in conventional media are in this
30%, so they can make it look like the majority. However, they are,
in fact, the minority.
We
can likewise count on 30% doubting everything the Government says or
does and will, without even thinking, choose freedom over Government
intrusion. Right now, even though everything the Government or Obama
is doing is not wrong, it is far better to be skeptical of
Government. We must stay on point to challenge the really big and
really dangerous threats.
There
are about 40% between these two camps that can go either way. This
was the breakdown of Americans in 1776 and has remained about the
same since. However, for now we must throw off the yoke of thinking
in terms of getting the magical 51% majority needed to pass a bill
or win an election. We don’t need a majority to save our country
as much as we need courage.
This
whole matter could be settled by a tiny minority, even 2% or less,
on either side of the issue. Marx has been proven true that a tiny
minority of the passionate can rule the majority who are
indifferent. The great tipping points in history that have brought
profound cultural change have consistently come from less than the
square root of 1% of the population affected. That means that less
than 100 people can profoundly impact and determine the course of a
city of one million.
Maybe
that is why the Lord made Gideon send away tens of thousands who
wanted to fight with him, until he got down to just three hundred
men. With God, three hundred were enough even in the face the
massive army arrayed against them. The longer the odds, the better
the Lord seems to like it.
Tolkien
portrayed his vision of these times in The
Lord of the Rings.
In
his prophecy, the evil that was coming out of the bowels of the
earth was worse than the world had ever faced before. Those who were
standing against the hordes from hell were few in number, but they
resolved to fight in the face of almost certain death because it was
the right thing to do. They fought well, but it took just two
persevering hobbits to undo all of the power of the evil one.
You
might be one of those hobbits. The smallest and seemingly most
insignificant of our neighbors might be one. Therefore, let us treat
everyone in the fight as heroes. As the last battle unfolded, the
heroes were equally as shocked by those who turned out to be in the
enemy’s camp as they were by some who turned out to be on their
side. Be open.
We
must keep it simple and just do the right thing. Even if we fail, we
will be able to stand before our King without shame. It will be much
better to take our stand and fail, than not to have stood. However,
we can read the end of the story in our Book. We win in the end. It
is time for boldness and courage. It is time for the righteous to
arise.
