Freedom-Fighters Forum

As I write this today, I am reminded of the admonition of Goethe, the German philosopher, “Truth must be repeated again and again because error is constantly being preached round about.”

There is recorded in the Book of Proverbs the following: “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked beareth rule, the people morn.” [Proverbs 29:2]

If I were the devil…

I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world.

I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man’s effort, instead of God’s blessings.

I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of the other way around.

I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for their state revenue.

I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership.

I would make it legal to kill unborn babies.

I would make it socially acceptable to take one’s own life, and invent machines to make it convenient.

I would cheapen human life as much as possible so that the life of animals is valued more than human beings.

I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was grounds for a lawsuit.

I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I would get sports heroes to advertise them.

I would get control of the media, so that every night I could pollute the mind of every family member with my agenda.

I would attack the family, the backbone of any nation.

I would make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable.

If the family crumbles, so does the nation.

I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movie
screens, and call it art.

I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted.

I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined by a few who call themselves authorities and refer to their agenda as politically correct.

I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date, and the Bible is for the naive.

I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional.

Hmmm… I guess if I were the devil, I’d leave things pretty much the way they are.

Good day.
