The Return of Christ

I’ve heard about all of it. What was the last one, 2012? What was the day? It seems every year or two, someone who believes he knows something the rest of us are ignorant of, tells that he alone knows when the eath will end.

It’s the epitome of stupidity. Jesus has told us that no one knows. However there are 3 things I do know about the second coming. It’s not because I am special. It’s not because I have a special revelation. It is there in the Bible for anyone to read.

1st, as I said, only God knows when. He knows the year, month and date. He knows hour, minute and second.

2nd, people will mock the 2nd coming. They say that it has been over 2000 years and he’ll never return. I know that for 2 reasons. I’ve seen it and the Bible says they will. Moreover, the conditions prophesied are coming to pass. Things are falling into place, just as He said.

3rd, we have over 2000 less days to wait than when Jesus 1st foretold it. That is to say, those long term plans just might be interrupted. Actually, the same can be said about the short term plans. As Jesus said, we don’t know when. The warning that we have is all the warning we’ll get.

If you have not accepted Jesus as your savior, right now just might be a good time. It might be the last chance you get. It would be a horrible thing to wake and realize you waited 1 day too long.

Guess

Two streets of 10 homes. Those living in the houses on 1 street are never permited to have guns, bows & arrows or baseball bats.

On the other street they are required to have at least one hand gun and one shotgun. The homes that have the guns are well known.

Guess which of the homes are more probably going to have robberies. Guess which ones are more probably going to come under assault.

Now, let’s change things. Still only 10 homes are armed but no one knows which ones. If you were a burglar, which homes would you choose to rob.

Logically, not many would take a chance to rob any. The 10 armed homes would effectively provide some protection for those not armed.

For this reason, I suggest it is advantageous to all that some are armed. If no homes are armed, all homes are subject to robbery, armed robbery or outright assault. In other words, that fella down the street with an AR15 or a 12 guage or even that .38 is helping to keep you safe, almost as effectively as that entire police department.

The Real Trump Error

Had businessman Trump moved to Florida or Texas 5 years earlier, the NY, NY would not have been able to charge President Trump with anything.

The lesson we should all take away from this tragedy is, don’t live in NY, NY. We probably ought to stay out of CA, IL, and similar other states too.

Note: If you live in NY, NY, you to can be charged with 34 crimes you didn’t commit either.

The Reason

There is a reason they come. They immigrate by the millions. They fly in. They drive in. They walk in. They swim in and they come by boat. Even more want to leave their country and come to the USA but can’t.

They come in legally ar greate expense. They come in illegally at great risk. Many hide here hoping that they won’t have to return…this sometimes risking lives of family, friends and themselves.

There are a few very good reasons for this. Certainly, one reason is because of our justice system. I mean in other countries people are imprisoned for political reasons.

That just doesn’t happen in this country, that is, until now.

Joe and His Green Crowd FIGURATIVELY Got Shot Down

First, let me re-emphasize “figuratively.” That does not mean literally. No one shot at them, not even a peashooter. I say that lest someone misconstrue the meaning of my words.

If I heard the report right, a federal judge just OKed Phillips Petroleum’s drilling in Alaska, or at least the preparation for it. Now they can build the road, which will permit them to move their equipment in. Biden fought to stop them. He loves drilling for oil and mining for all sorts of things, as long as it is not within the US. He does not like anything benefiting American industry unless approved by the greenies.

I just love it when Joe and his greenies suffer such setbacks. To be sure, when they have setbacks, the American people benefit. In this case, it just might help hold the price down at the gas pumps. The only people that don’t like that are the greenies, those building wind mills and solar batteries, and those invested in EVs.

AND, by the way, from another but related report. Did you hear? The Saudis decided to decrease oil production. Or was it that they will try to increase prices. Either way, it is same, same.

How Much is Enough?

I once had a hope of having a million dollars… at which time I would retire and never again work. To be sure, 10 millions wouldn’t last some more than a week. I suppose there are a few people who spend more than a million dollars in a day and think little or nothing of it.

It prompts the question, just how much is enough?

At one time, I actually had hopes of approaching the million dollars but then came Obama care. That soaked the funds out of my savings about 10 times faster than I could replenish it. I thought I had enough. Suddenly I was begnning to think I would have to work 10 years beyond my death.

There was a comedian who said it well. “I’m not selfish. All I need is enough to pay for all I need and all I want.” I guess the definition of all we want varies vary much. Moreover, some people don’t even make enough for their needs, let alone what they want.

There are many who ask if this is right. They think if we just take money from those who have more than enough for their needs and many of thier wants and give it to those who don’t have enough for their needs, it would make the world into a utopia.

Those who think that way simply don’t live in the real world. Their reasoning has been blinded by their idealism. Moreover, they started handing out cell phones to people who don’t need them. Believe it or not, cell phones are not necessities. A person can easily survive without them. Yet, socialists called them a basic need and took money away from those like me. In order to get my cell phone, I had to give up other things.

Then again, Obama and his friends had no interest in me. I was paying my way, plus a huge 1000 dollar a month health insurance premium. I never was rich and it seems the dems are determined to keep me from it.

Which actually brings me to my point. The wealthy are wealthy and are likely to remain so, due to the laws written by the friends of criminals and of course the wealthy bribing, aka lobbying, aka payoffs. Also, those not wealthy are likely to remain, as me, not wealthy. They don’t want the likes of me joining those with big bank accounts.

It seems, in reality, the government has a really hard time determining what is enough, that is to say, the difference between needs, wants and outright freebies. In addition, they don’t seem to know the difference between those down on their luck and the folks with their hands out.

If the truth be told, the FOC are not out to help the poor but rather themselves. They know that out of every dollar going through government control, some of it indirectly remains in the hands of the legislators and those who provide the payoffs aka lobbyist. It is why poor legislators become rich without any other apparent income other than the checks they draw in exchange for supposedly representing us.

QUESTION: Just what does the word lobby, as in large room, have to with bribes, as in payoffs.
