God’s People are not Responsible for Other People’s Violence

The recent shooting in Buffalo is consistent with my view that the apocalypse is underway.

People are making wild judgments about the killer, without learning any facts in advance. Nothing new there. A silly woman who writes for Rolling Stone claims he’s a mainstream Republican. Some conservatives are hollering “false flag!”, which is one of the dumber things conservatives say whenever an event has the potential to embarrass them.

The killer, Payton Gendron, did what many delusional mass murderers do. He published a manfesto. I’m starting to think publishing a manifesto should, itself, be a crime carrying a prophylactic life sentence. I don’t know which mass killer was the first to publish a manifesto, but he really started a trend.

Unlike over 99% of the people who are making assertions about Gendron, I looked at the manifesto. It’s available at Scrib’d, unless our keepers have taken it down. I didn’t read the whole thing, but I learned enough to make me more informed than almost every journalist who claims to be informing us about Gendron.

Bad news for leftists: Gendron is not a Republican, he is an atheist, and he hates capitalism. Bad news for conservatives: he is not a Democrat or true leftist, and he used an AR-15, adding more weight to the irrational campaign to ban these mediocre but much-loved semiautomatic weapons.

Leftists should be encouraging people to buy AR-15’s, because they jam all the time and, when chambered in .223 or 5.56mm, have terminal performance inferior to that of 7.62x39mm guns.

Gendron is a white supremacist. He states it clearly, so there is no point in arguing about it. He believes America should be a white country. He wants to end immigration and somehow get rid of non-whites. He hates Jews more than anyone and claims they are less intelligent than the rest of us. He hates blacks quite a bit, and he thinks they are stupid and incapable of self-control. He thinks Jews cause most of the world’s problems, and he thinks it’s necessary to get rid of them. He believes blacks are not quite as bad, but he thinks they are easier to defeat, so he believes they should be attacked first.

It appears Gendron learned most of what he believes from Internet kooks. His manifesto is full of racist memes. It looks like there is no neo-Nazi canard too crazy for him to swallow and embrace.

Gendron wrote references to the Waukesha “Dancing Grannies” murders on the handguard of his gun. It appears he thought the attack was racially motivated, although the authorities think that is not true. He was clearly trying to avenge the victims.

Gendron wants to start a race war. He was hoping to spur reprisals which would bring things to a head.

He is a very intelligent boy, but he is also insane. Some people have argued with me when I called him insane, thinking I was suggesting he was not responsible for what he did. They had the wrong idea. “Insanity” has more than one definition. There is a medical definition, a legal definition, and a common sense definition. Legally, Gendron is almost certainly sane. He knew what he was doing. He understood the consequences. He will be convicted. From a common sense point of view, he’s as crazy as a treeful of coons. He believes things no rational person could believe.

I think his story is interesting, because the Revelation says the lawless will take over the world, and he is a great example of a lawless person. He felt his personal convictions entitled him to disobey very sound laws enacted by democratically elected legislators. In this respect, he is just like Antifa terrorists, BLM terrorists, sanctuary city mayors, people who harass Supreme Court justices, and Second Amendment sanctuary sheriffs. He feels he is above the rules. People like him are becoming more and more common and influential, and our ordered society is breaking down because of it. Joe Biden is lawless, and he’s the president. He backs the people who are destroying our government by terrorizing Supreme Court justices he disagrees with, and he refuses to enforce our immigration laws.

Gendron is also interesting because he is trying to get people to murder each other. The Revelation says a spirit of murder will be released on the world, and people will kill each other under his influence. I am convinced that spirit is already at work, and Gendron is probably controlled by demons he commands. Sooner or later, violence will erupt everywhere, and people like Gendron will be the ones who light the fuses that set the rest of humanity off.

As an atheist, Gendron is unacquainted with Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Because he isn’t baptized with the Spirit and does not pray in tongues, he has very little resistance to delusion. This is why he believes the weird things he does. He seems like a freak, but the truth is that he is typical. Most people aren’t planning to shoot up supermarkets, but only a tiny percentage of people are close enough to the Holy Spirit to avoid believing nonsense. I would guess that less than one percent of human beings spend enough time in the Spirit to avoid being duped.

Not everyone is a firestarter like Gendron, but nearly everyone is dry tinder. Nearly everyone is a sleeper, waiting for someone with more initiative to supply the impetus that will drive us to start a murder pandemic. Anyone who isn’t protected from delusion by the Holy Spirit is a potential murderer or accomplice of murderers.

As Jesus said, those who are not with him and his people are against them. You can’t be neutral. If the Holy Spirit doesn’t rule you, Satan and his imps can get at you and transform you into a vicious creature who is impervious to reason. The fact that you’re a nice person now doesn’t mean anything. Nice people supported apartheid and made snacks for Nazis who were busy abusing the innocent.

A lot of people who used to be nice run around in black costumes throwing frozen water bottles at the police and trying to burn government buildings.

America’s leftist lunatics are making things less and less tolerable for sane people. They are pushing us to the point where we will snap. School districts are now punishing children for refusing, truthfully, to use incorrect pronouns. That’s pure Nuremberg. A child who refuses to lie can end up labeled a disciplinary problem, and that can follow him through his scholastic career and limit his opportunities. Colleges are run by utter fruitcakes now, and if they see that a teen refused to mislabel girls and boys, they will wholeheartedly agree with the assessments of the nuts who slandered him in high school, and they are likely to deprive him of positions he has earned. The likely end result is that many young people will be barred from positions of leadership and wealth that they deserve. They may effectively be banned from many professions. I doubt my law school would have accepted me had I told the admissions committee God was against sodomy.

The Germans moved incrementally to get rid of Jews. They started limiting their participation in society, and they slowly tightened the noose. At first, the restrictions were tolerable. Eventually, Jews were banned from many professions. Then they had to move into ghettos, and their wealth was taken. In the end, the Germans deprived them of the right to live. The same pattern is developing in the treatment of people who oppose the enemies of Jesus, who is unquestionably God.

It’s amazing that sexual perversion turned out to be the most powerful weapon used to destroy us. I predicted this over and over, publicly, years before it happened, and people said I was crazy. Now we live in a country where your child’s future can be jeopardized simply because he refuses to pretend the delusions of mentally ill children and adults are correct. I was right, and the reason I was right is that God was the one who told me what would happen. I couldn’t have figured it out on my own. I had no reason to think about it, and I probably lacked the capacity to see what was happening without help.

Gendron is nothing like me or most conservatives or Christians, but he will become our public face, at least for a while. Perhaps for a long time. He is much more like Antifers and BLM terrorists. They ought to bear a resemblance to each other, because they have the same father. He is not part of the right wing, but there are people like him on the far, far right, and their numbers are increasing in response to leftist aggression. There are many extreme-right characters who are not Christian at all or who claim to be Christian but reject the Holy Spirit and do not pray in tongues. Those people are just as vulnerable to radicalization as Gendron, and they are starting to show the world they are also sons and daughters of the father of Antifa and BLM.

When the rapture comes, nearly everyone left on Earth will be a child of Satan, and the pandemic of murder and abuse will, for the most part, be a family dispute. There will be a remnant of people who turn to God, but their numbers will be insignificant. While God’s children are on the earth, God has a compelling interest in tempering the suffering of humanity. Once they are gone, he will have much less incentive to intervene. He will sit back and let Satan’s children do what they want to each other. They will not belong to him. Then they will learn that the presence of God’s children on the earth was the only reason this place was ever significantly nicer than hell.

I’m sure they will still whine about imaginary unfairness, and they will look for scapegoats to torment, but we won’t be here to be hurt and have our wealth looted, so they’ll have to torture and kill each other and loot each other’s wealth instead. Meanwhile, we will be in heaven, at a marriage feast. Out of their reach for eternity.

I say these things as though I know I will be there. That is presumptuous. I certainly hope I will.

Now we should sit back and see whether Gendron succeeds in starting the conflagration he hoped to start. Will he pull it off, or will others have to complete his work? Maybe they’ll go out like Samson’s foxes, ripping at each other and running in terror because they’re tied together and they see fire chasing them.

They would be Satan’s apostles.

I bear no responsibility for what Gendron did, any more than I bear responsibility for BLM’s arson and murder. I’m just a man who believes we should have a godly, orderly society guided by love. I am not responsible for what anyone else does. People can blame me all they want. Like God told me a few years back, an excuse is a lie. And the word says liars will have their place in the lake of fire.

My wife and I prayed for Gendron, his family, his victims, and their families. Maybe God will help them not to be destroyed by things like delusion and unforgiveness. That would be nice. The only thing worse than going to prison for life is going to prison for life and then going to hell.
