Trying To Force The Rapture

Recently the US Secretary of State, Condi Rice stated -
"The Lord is going to come on time - if we just wait"
For all two of you on planet Earth who don't understand the significance of
what this means, the US Secretary of State has publically acknowledged the
US governments allegiance to a higher power, which is supposed to be the
accepted excuse for government ineptitude and incompetence. Frankly, this
statement by a government official borders on the verge of dementia.
The neocon junta in the White House wholeheartedly subscribes to the
literal viewpoint that Jesus is indeed coming - and very soon, which is the
tendered reason (and widely supported) for their attrocious behavior and
gross mediocrity. In other words, worry not about governmental malfeasence,
lying, torture, murder, environmental destruction, the deaths of hundreds
of thousands of people, or even government sponsored terrorism, the Lord of
Lords and King of Kings is soon to come. Jesus will fix everything. The
great tragedy of this belief system is that it is nothing more then a
modern myth, steeped in fiery indigination and gross interpretation and a
deliberate and malicious ignorance of of facts and history.
Subscribing to this belief is the architects of the Project for a New
American Century (PNAC) which includes Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul
Wolfowitz, Richard Pearle, and Governor Jeb Bush, among others. And of
course, the Commander in Chief, George Bush and the US Secretary of State,
Condoleeza Rice.
In 1997, the PNAC proposed U.S. participation in three theater-scale wars.
This was before the s(election) of Herr Bush to the Whitehouse - and quite
noticably, before 9/11 and the alleged "war on terror". Here we find the
origin of the "axis of evil", Iraq, Iran and North Korea being the
(currently) targeted rogue regimes. The PNAC called for the first war to
take place against Iraq, ostensibly to establish a democracy in the Arab
world. Figuring quite prominently in their reasoning was oil and strategic
location. The Bush administration justified the U.S. invasion of Iraq on
its absolute and promised certainty that Iraq's evil ruler Saddam had both
weapons of mass destruction and ties to Al Qaeda, all which proved to be
utterly false and downright fabricated. "Thou shalt not bear false
witness". Evidently, lying doesn't bother these rapture-ready Christians.
Just prior to the (s)election of George Bush in 2000, the PNAC released a
paper that called for U.S. invasion of Iraq whether or not Saddam was still
in power. They also acknowledged the need for a "critical event to
galvanize American public opinion" to support such an invasion, thus began
the evil machinations of 9/11 and 3,000 sacrificed Americans lives. "Thou
shalt not kill". But this was only the beginning of the oblation to be
offered
We also have the Downing Street memo proving the war was preplanned - long
before this Administration attempted to force the story of "terrorist"
attacking the WTC. There has already been written a few million or so words
on this subject, that the war was illegal, false and the so-called
justications for the war were outright fabrications (and now widely
forgotten in the aftermath of Katrina) - but not much has actually been
said of the religious reasons held by many in Bush Adminstration, which has
somehow morphed into an unlimited and divinely endorsed license to kill,
maim, torture, lie, fabricate and distort whatever they want. Somehow this
repulsive behavior still leaves these neocon mass murderers ready for the
"return of the Lord" when Jesus comes back for the "good" Christians.
Herein lies the ridiculous irony of their position - the problem with this
belief is it is provably wrong. Not just the hypocritical actions of the
supposedly "faithful", but the doctrine itself is in gross error. It was
not a doctrinal belief taught and held by the early disciples of the church
(those who lived closest to the time of Christ), nor was it taught and
believed by later generations - until as recently as 150 years ago when it
sprang forth from an extremist movement and eventually became widely
accepted.
The Christian Bible actually has a lot to say about this subject - and the
behavior of the modern converts to Christianity, but this doctrinal
evidence is being widely ignored - or deliberately suppressed. This should
be no cause for wonder, when you consider that the alleged "evidence" of
the return of Christ for the faithful also condemns the very actions the
"faithful and true" are committing!
The belief in a rapture stems from the false interpretation of several
biblical passages and modern interpretation. It is worth noting that the
early church did not believe in the rapture doctrine as many
fundamantelists profess, but understood the teachings of Christ to mean
something else entirely different.
The strange part about this particular cultish belief, is the fact that our
own government is very much involved in nourishing this belief throughout
the world - like the grossly misguided statement recently made by
Condeleeza Rice.
The rapture doctrine, as it is taught and believed today, vaguely details
the bodily removal of Christians from the earth, but only after certain
world events have occurred. It is these events in which the Bush
Administration and the PNAC are actively trying to orchestrate. In other
words, they are trying to force the rapture and the return of Christ by
deliberately engaging in actions toward their prophetic "fulfillment". The
contradiction and impossibility of this pugnacious behavior is
unconscionable.
A great many people already know this, meaning they are aware of the
fundamentalists belief of the neocons, but still fail to understand the
true content of what it actually means for the entire world. Evidenced
already by the actions of the Bush Administration, the plot to force
Jesus's return is also poorly understood by non-believers - which is quite
notably, the majority of the world. Fundamentalist Christians (thankfully)
remain a minority among Christians and Christians themselves, are still a
minority among the worlds religions. But the danger is when the world's
superpower is quite literally hell-bent on forcing prophetic history upon
the world citizens - at any cost.
It will be difficult to convey in few words the depth and breadth of all
this, but I will try. The PNAC and the Bush Administration, with the
support of the fundamentalist churches worldwide are seeking to
deliberately force World War III on the world, which will include the
destruction of most of the Middle East (notably Iran and Syria among
others) and the United States. This war will be between Israel, Russia,
China and the United States and will even include a civil war within our
own borders. This war will employ the exchange of nuclear weapons, with
tens of millions of innocent deaths. The entire purpose of this war, is to
create the conditions for the return of Christ on earth and the
establishment of New Jeruselem in Israel. This would also include the
rebuilding of the Temple Mount in Israel, allegedly the "sign" for which
the world awaits the heralding of the return of Christ.
That's what they are looking for - and that's what they are trying to
accomplish. The ensuing worldwide resource destruction and environmental
damage to the planet is meaningless (now you know why Bush & Co. care
little for the environment - they don't plan on living here very long).
This would also account for George Bush's view of the future, in which he
has stated "There won't be any people". There won't - not if he is allowed
to have his way.
I would not have a problem with a world leader holding beliefs in private.
But that is not what is occurring within America today - these beliefs are
now dictating national and international policy. They have nothing to do
with securing America's future, because the neocons do not believe in a
future world and all of their decisions are based upon this "fact".
It should be noted that a careful examination of the doctrinal belief can
be uncovered as simply wrong, with no basis for this "end time" rapture
belief being taught in the Bible. So what then are they doing? Are they
really that ignorant of history and fact and truly deceived by the lying
preachers and teachers of today?
It's possible (but unknown) that the Bush Administration already knows this.
With the wealth of bright and intelligent people available to the world's
superpower, I find it unfathomable that they don't understand the real
truth concering the rapture and the Bible itself. It just doesn't make
sense that these supposedly intelligent and bright people would fall for
the view fed to the masses that a rescue operation is being planned from
the sky to save mankind from the error of his ways. But then again, they
just might be that stupid. At this point in our downward spiral to
destruction, I wouldn't put anything past these people. I'm probably guilty
of thinking that they are somehow different from everyone else, when
they're probably not. Just greedier.
Allowing this fundamentalist belief in the White House is proving to be
exceedingly dangerous to the world as we have already seen. Any excuse is
justifiable if it means that the path to Jesus is being taken. Moreover,
gross negligence and ineptitude is utterly unaccountable. These "sins" of
commission or ommission are somehow exempt from any judgment or
accountability to the people and apparently, God Himself.
The worldwide political landscape cannot afford to allow religious belief
to govern political decisions. America cannot afford this - people are
being killed daily by the actions and inactions and the decisions of these
neocon fundamentalist. Wanton resource destruction and laying waste to the
environment are also occurring under their extremely dubious leadership
which includes vast species extinctions, unchecked global warming, rising
temperatures on land and sea, widespread pollution and ocean degradation.
These are just some of the global catastrophes now underway. Can we
actually afford to let this continue?
The solution to this is simple, but potentially complex to implement. The
neocon agenda must be stopped cold, dead in its tracks before the world
suffers the unholy wrath and indignation of a fiery nuclear conflagaration,
a scenario which is a desired part of the neocon fundamentalist agenda as
they seek to force the rapture upon the world. This cannot be allowed to
happen if we hope to have a survivable and living future.
