Our grandfathers, who stood against evil and shed their blood to stop it, never would have tolerated their own government becoming so totalitarian that it would dictate to them what car they should drive, what (if any) health insurance they should choose or even what light bulb they should buy. Has our generation been worthy of earlier Americans’ sacrifices? Or have we surrendered their hard-fought victories in return for false promises of a big-government utopia that never materializes? Look no further than the politicians we elect. In a large sense, I reject the author's liberal use of the pronoun "We."
I served this country for over 20 years in the military. I fought in 3 wars. I never voted for these totalitarian politicians. I have always paid my own way.
We live in a fallen world - a world of evil. I get to the point where I have to realize that evil is marching on a path to its own destiny, and there is nothing I can do to stop it. Things are going to get worse. Antichrist will rise. Persecution will become absolutely horrible. And the wrath of God on this earth will someday reach a crescendo unlike anything in human history.
“there is nothing I can do to stop it.”
There is something you can do to stop it. I’m doing it everyday. God is in the equation. You have to be open-minded, if you are interested, let me know.
