Lux Lucet

My Comment: “It feels like the plan is to push the public into revolt and then crack down and impose total tyranny.” I think the writer’s on to something here. He’s talking about events in Great Britain, but the same thing seems to be going on here in the US. It’s all goad, goad, goad the public with more and more outrageously treasonous behavior and wait for the big blowup.  Then comes the big hammer. We already have had a taste of that with the J6 insurrection setup and subsequent prosecutions of normal Americans for wandering around the Capitol. What’s the way out? It’s not grabbing our pitchforks. The answer seems to me that Christians first need to pray for discernment, then get to work. Back federal-level candidates who support the Constitution.  But don’t forget about the importance of local candidates who love liberty and who will stand up to tyranny. Matt Trewhella is right, we tend to focus too much on national elections and not enough on local elections. Having principled local officials willing to stand up to tyrannical higher magistrates is the Biblical model. Mob violence is not the answer and simply plays into the hands of the wicked rulers who hate us and want to enslave us.
