It is all about Theos — God.
Secularists have lost big time. In this confused era, the world is confronted with
Theos — God. Secularists be damned by their own free wills. In this confused era, the world is confronted with Theos — God.
It is Islamic theos or the Judeo-Christian Theos. One or the other. That’s what the entire planetary conflict is about.
It’s not ultimately about despotism versus democracy. It is not about social status or geography or economics. It’s about Theos — God.
At the close of the Church Age, near to the Second Advent of Christ, it all makes sense that every aspect of culture points now to Theos — God.
It is Theos who has been ignored for too long, shunted as a forgotten relic and shunned as an embarrassment. Yet one cannot finally bring about the demise of Theos. That was attempted two thousand years ago outside Jerusalem. It did not work then. It won’t work now.
Now — right now as we breathe — the planet, spinning upon its axis, swirls a population toying with what to do with Theos — God.
Islamics already know what they are going to do. They are going to lift their false theos up as Islam World Rule Master. The Iranian President is at the front of the Muslim pack to see that that is in place, even if the globe is set on fire to do it.
Christians know that the Islamic theos is actually Satan. It is the old snake in Eden. It is Lucifer who tempted Christ during the forty days of temptation. It is the devil who stalked Judas into the garden. Now the serpent appears once again — looming with power threats and prancing in defiance of reason, morality and civility.
Yet the politicians of the world regard Theos as the last discipline to study. That is, all the politicians but the Muslim politicians. Their world is wound up around theos. It is theos who is their alpha and omega.
They have no politic without theos. They have no government without theos. They have no social system, education, and economy without theos.
The free world on the other hand has so discarded Theos that the free world is left to float. Europe has ignored the Papal plea to remember Theos in the European Union Constitution. In truth, EU has thumbed its nose at believers of every denominational tag as well as these denominations’ Theos.
One does not thumb the nose at Theos without paying a severe price.
Now the secularists of every non-Muslim country are dealing with grassroots fear and distrust of the future. How do free nation parents plan for their children if there may be no planet?
How do older persons prepare for retirement if there may be no planet? How do the rich enjoy their wealth if there may be no planet?
In the free world Theos has been closeted while recreation and money have been lifted up as gods. Celebrities have become our goddesses. Game playing has become our worship. Superficiality has become our spirituality.
All the while the Muslims have wedded their very existences to theos. In that the dark powers have grown. In that they have stood in the market place of the free world to inform the free world that the free world’s days are numbered. In that the dark powers have predicted the overthrow of the non-Muslim nations once aligned with Theos.
Theos is angry.
He is angry with His own, descendants of Isaac, who have backslidden. They have become the disobedient similar to Old Testament apostasies running after other loves.
At the same time, Theos is angry with the Muslims, descendants of Ishmael, for bowing down to the false theos — in Eden the old serpent enemy to Creator God.
In the days to come, all peoples of the planet will continue to see the playing out of the contest between theos and Theos.
The world will gradually come to understand that everything now is predicated, not on politics, nuclear power, economies, military might, strut and prance, but what Theos will determine to do with the disobedient and the mislead.
Theos is working right now as I type.
Though it appears as if the planet has no plan, has lots is route, Theos definitely has a scheme playing out as we breathe. Look to the future and in looking keep your eyes on Theos — the true God.
That Theos is the final Word of all that is every thought, all that is every spoken.
