Keep Your Presidents; I Want a King

It’s very confusing, distinguishing apostles from nutbars.

A year or two back, I came across a guy who was healing people on Youtube. He wasn’t faking it. He didn’t take money for what he did, and he healed pretty unlikely people. He healed Muslims, for example.

I thought he was a good guy to keep an eye on. Then he started saying Donald Trump was going to be reinstated this year. He claimed Trump had dissolved the government, and somehow, he had concealed it from everyone. Biden, in particular, seemed to be unaware of the news.

Now he says God is going to bring Trump back as a king.

I think when you make an extremely confident prediction, and it goes nowhere, you should sit on the sidelines and try to figure out what’s wrong. You shouldn’t fire up your Gopro and make new predictions.

It’s strange that a person who is clearly deluded can also use God’s power to heal.

The bizarre thing is, he’s right about some things. He said some things I agree with. He says God doesn’t like democracy.

I used to think democracy was great. I know we have a republic, not a democracy, but let’s not be pedantic. I thought it was obvious that the people should be able to determine the course of their nation. I had that idea hammered into me from day one, and I didn’t question it, any more than I questioned the assertion that America was the greatest country in the world.

Over the last couple of years, I’ve soured on democracy. It’s a form of government not much unlike allowing small children to decide who gets to drive the school bus. Most people are too ignorant, unfair, and selfish to vote correctly.

A quotation from an unknown author reads, “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largesse out of the public treasury.” That’s a little over the top, or at least it was, before America lost its collective mind, but it’s correct in principle. Way too many people vote for their own short-term, narrow interests. This has always been true, but as we descend into childishness and spite, it is becoming more true than ever.

As people who read this blog know, I believe the Antichrist will have a body, just like Jesus. The body of Jesus is supposed to be a large group of people guided by the Holy Spirit. The Antichrist’s body is a group guided by the flesh, the Internet, and, ultimately, Satan. Anyone who isn’t ruled by the Holy Spirit is ruled by Satan. The body of the Antichrist is a mob, ruled by the lowest, most immoral people in the world.

The body of the Antichrist has the appearance of a democracy, because it has a grassroots look to it. We are told it’s democratic. We are told the poor and the voiceless have come together and worked it out so their movements carry out the orders of the masses. This isn’t true, however. Satan rules demons. Demons rule people who are controlled by the flesh. When those people get together and vote on things, they’re not really trying to impose their own will. They’re doing what Satan has told them to do.

When a nation allows every adult to vote, it gives Satan power. It allows demons to shape election results.

In the Bible, we see mobs voting for evil, over and over. Before Noah, a mob of angels came down, conspired against God, and impregnated women, and the world became so corrupt, God killed the human race. In Lot’s day, a mob of homosexuals surrounded Lot’s house and tried to gang-rape two archangels, as well as Lot himself. In Exodus, a mob defied Moses, who was God’s representative, and chose to worship an idol. A mob voted for Israel to be ruled by kings instead of priests and prophets, and as a result, Israel was put under Saul, a man who lost his mind along with God’s favor. The Hebrews ended up with a divided kingdom, lost tribes, and a long succession of feeble, crooked kings who brought them defeat, captivity, the diaspora, and the Holocaust.

A mob in Nazareth tried to throw the Messiah off a cliff for announcing his arrival. A mob in Jerusalem tried to stone him to death. Another mob voted for his murder and got the Romans to do what they couldn’t do. Various mobs tormented the apostles. At least one apostle was killed to please the masses.

God lets people vote, but it doesn’t mean he supports democracy. It means he supports free will. He lets us choose to destroy ourselves and our nations, but he wants us to let him rule us.

After I watched the Youtube guy, I got some revelation.

If a nation has to vote in order to decide what to do, it means its people don’t know the truth. If they were hearing from God, they would be in one accord. They would hear his truth and know what to do. Voting is conflict resolution. It shows a nation is in conflict; a house divided. No one establishes a method of conflict resolution unless there is conflict. Jesus said, correctly, that a house divided could not stand. It can’t survive forever.

Jesus is the prince of peace. Peace is nothing but harmony born of agreement. Agreement only comes through the Spirit of Holiness. All other forms of agreement are faulty. Many people think Satan’s kingdom is united, but that isn’t true. Satan is a mutineer. Mutineers never have peace. Those under them always strive to supplant them, because mutineers don’t have authority or the fear it commands. The spirits that serve Satan aren’t loyal. They hate him and want to take his place. The Bible says, “The wicked flee when none pursue.”

The Youtube guy pointed out that God is a king, not an elected leader. He said we pray for God’s kingdom to come, not his democracy. The Bible calls Jesus the king of kings, not the king of presidents. The Bible says God’s children are a nation of priests and kings, not prime ministers.

The Bible says there will be a thousand-year reign on the earth after the tribulation. During that time, Jesus will be here in person, as both God and king. He will have believers ruling under him, and they will also be kings. They won’t be elected by ignorant mobs who only think of themselves. They’ll be anointed by God himself.

We should have theocracy, guided by the Holy Spirit. God offered us that, and through the Jews, we turned it down. After that, they got the second-best form of rule: kingdoms. God anointed kings to rule. Eventually, human beings started killing their kings and giving power to elected legislators and executives. It was a step backward.

“Democracy” means “rule by the people.” That, alone, should convince us it’s a bad idea. It shows the hand of the Antichrist at work, but almost nobody understands how his kingdom works, so Americans think it’s smart to be ruled by our people.

We still have a king. Unfortunately, his name is Satan. The monarchical system can’t really be escaped.

Democracy is leftism. American conservatives don’t like to hear that, because they think they own democracy, but it’s true. American conservatives are really leftists in history’s long view. Three hundred years ago, few questioned the legitimacy of monarchy as a system of government. The people who brought the kings down were leftists. They were “progressive.” Real conservatives believed their kings were anointed by God, so they tried to keep them in power. They thought leftism was rebellion against God himself, and it was.

Now when a nation like America selects rulers, the candidates have to pander to absolute idiots who have no idea how the world works. They have to pacify socialists, anti-white racists, women (who vote for chaos all the time), perverts, and even those who want to let unvetted aliens come in and take what we have. A king would not have to be so accommodating.

The American Revolution was a huge mistake. We like to think it was about the crown’s abuses, but the British were also abused back in England. For example, the British Navy was made up largely of white slaves who were hanged if they tried to escape. The British forced people to go to America as indentured servants. The British lived in terror of the royals. The punishments for treason were the stuff of horror movies. The British were still burning criminals alive after our revolution.

The American Revolution was about money and power. Let’s be honest. America was rich in resources, it was full of slaves who provided free labor, and it presented a great opportunity for people who were not nobles or able to serve in Parliament to form their own nation and occupy high office.

Canada and Australia didn’t fight the British. They ended up prosperous. We could have gone the same way.

If we hadn’t rebelled, slavery in America might have ended in 1833, when it was abolished in England. We might never have had the Civil War, which caused the deaths of around 700,000 Americans. We might not have had the North’s abuses during the postwar era. We might not have had the South’s reprisals against freed slaves, which still contribute to racial friction. The South might have been just as prosperous as the North, and today, we might not have the strong North/South antagonism that is working to fuel a second civil war.

If the colonists had stood by their king, the empire might have remained united and powerful much longer. Maybe America and Canada would have remained parts of the UK. If that had happened, would it have been necessary for the US to enter World War Two? Hitler wasn’t afraid to invade England, but would he have felt that way had England had well over a hundred million subjects across the ocean, in a country full of factories, farms, oil, coal, and other resources?

Maybe the combined might of Great Britain, North America, and Australia would have discouraged him.

If we had stayed together, we would have had a gigantic internal market with no trade barriers. Wouldn’t that have made us wealthier?

Maybe George III really was anointed by God. If he was, we should have worked with him.

I’m all done with democracy. I will take part in it because I want to be a good citizen and because I have no choice, but it’s a stupid form of government, and it’s destroying us.

If we absolutely have to have elections, women should stay home, and the right to vote should be limited to intelligent, informed, law-abiding people who have assets. You should have something to lose so you can understand how important government’s actions are. If you’ve never been anything but a burden, you shouldn’t be allowed to vote for the government to give you other people’s wealth.

I hope my understanding of prophecy is right. I hope the rapture and tribulation will be followed by a millennium during which Earth will be ruled by a perfect, omnipotent king. The Biden disaster serves to sharpen the yearning.
