Voice of the Kingfisher speaks out …from a different perspective

Globalization is the economic illness of our day. Unless America takes a pain pill and extricates herself from global trade markets, then her abscess is only going to get worse.
Recently I heard the real estate magnate, Donald Trump, being interviewed on Fox News. He stated categorically that Americans need to become self-sufficient again, manufacturing their own products and placing a tariff of 25% on goods coming into this country from China. He claimed he has been forced to buy inferior products for his business from other countries because we simply cannot compete with a country that manipulates its currency giving itself a trade advantage.
He claims that even the Chinese with whom he trades, have stated to him that they cannot believe Americans are so stupid as to continue in the direction in which they are going, watching their jobs being transported to China, all the time, building the Chinese economy, while theirs fails. Add to this the slave labor of China and of other poorer countries and they have a win-win situation.
There are many reasons for America having become entrenched in global markets, one major reason being the greed of the American people, themselves, who want more and still more for less, even at the expense of losing jobs. Ultimately, the whole economy will come crashing down around them, when there are no dollars left to keep spending.
The government is setting a terrible example of spending its way into a debt from which there will eventually be no way to recover. It will come back to rest on American heads, who will have to pay the piper’s price, unless we take action very soon to prevent the coming disaster.
Many Americans are actually not aware that it is the goal of the United Nations to see this nation reduced to the status of a third world country. The One World Order can only be set in place when a social balance among the nations is reached within the social state. America cannot be independent of the forming World Government. Being caught in the snare of global markets is the method of destroying our economy, with global leaders counting on the greed of the people being such that they will willingly support buying foreign-products for cheaper prices.
In order to achieve world government America must also be subjugated to the rule of the other nations, a situation Mr. Obama is striving very hard to accomplish. He is using millions of dollars a day of the taxpayers’ money to run around the globe making deals with foreign nations, which will ultimately put the bucks in foreign pockets, and if he doesn’t have those bucks at his disposal, he will simply print them, as America suffers from his trillions of dollars of debt.
What does God think about His nation being involved in global markets? Open your eyes to the understanding of what He allowed to happen to the World Trade Towers on this soil. It was a clear message of exactly what He is going to do when His nations involve themselves in global trading alliances. Moral standards and laws affecting manufacturing in eastern countries are not the same as those of the West. The individual in the work force of the eastern block of nations is neither rewarded, commensurate to his work, nor is his or her dignity as a human being respected.
Free trade should be limited to that which exists between Canada and the United States, as they separate themselves from the evil practices of inhumanity, so prevalent in the countries with which they are presently trading. Inhuman acts will become more prevalent than ever before, with the rise of the last and final empire of the Babylonian System, called the Revived Roman Empire.
The evil of the Caesars was nothing compared to the evil of the coming Caesar called the Antichrist. Hitler gave us a hint of what is to come as he made a run for the position and failed, mainly because America lent a hand to protect liberty in the western world. Surely, we can see that the same thing will happen to the believers as that which happened to the Jews, for becoming involved in alliances with foreigners. They did not remain separate as a nation, faithful to their God who fought their battles for them, while they honored and obeyed Him.
In WW l and WW ll our soldiers fought to defend our country’s liberty in the name of God, and in the name of no other idolatrous god, to defend that which only He can give. Liberty can never be a part of Muslim countries, as long as they remain under the control of Islamic Law. God’s plan has always been to give freedom to His people, and to shower enormous blessings upon them, which He will only do, when we separate ourselves from religious nations that do not stand on His truth. We can make no treaties of any sort with them, if we are to retain our liberty.
The blessing of Israel was not extended to the other nations, even those who were dwelling within the Promised Land, such as the Canaanites, who worshipped their religious gods. The Israelites were told in no uncertain terms to separate from them and to remove them from the Land, leaving behind not a single trace of them. God only blesses those who worship and honor Him, our Creator.
It was never God’s intention for America, once separated from the religious gentile nations of the world, to return to unity with them by making trade treaties, peace treaties, or any other binding agreements. It amounts to submitting God’s authority to that of Satan, who rules over all of the religious gentile countries. He is the ruler of the world, though the world doesn’t know it. Religion is like leaven, which grows to fill and puff up the entire loaf.
We need to heed the message of the old musical Broadway comedy, called ‘Damn Yankees’, to see just how easy it was for the devil to make a deal with a Washington Senators (Democrat-liberals) fan, who wanted to stop the Yankee winning streak of that unbeatable Yankee team (the Tea Party movement) of baseball, America’s first love.
Suddenly, Mr. Applegate (Obama) appears on the scene looking like a slick salesman, but in fact, he was the devil. He wanted to cut a deal with the Washington Senators fan, middle-aged Joe Boyd, for the poor man’s soul in exchange for allowing him to become Joe Hardy, the young slugger who could put the (liberal) Senators on the map.
Before Joe agreed to the deal, something told his better side to provide an ‘escape clause’ that would allow him out of it. The Senators’ last game was to be on September 25, and Mr. Applegate agreed that if he played in that final game that he would be “in for the duration”. If not, he had until 9 o’clock that night to walk away from the deal and return to his normal life, and his wife Meg (probably an ordinary hockey mom), whom he had always loved, though lured by the sport of baseball and the opportunity to become part of it.
God has provided an ‘escape clause’ (repentance), which is binding for His misguided people who have made the poor choice to serve the devil in liberalism and the governments of this world, instead of serving Him (the Manager of the Yankees, so to speak). While approaching the last minutes of the final battle of history, even at the last hour, it is possible to save one’s soul (the thief on the cross). Joe Hardy made that choice just before his time was up and, as it turned out, Joe Boyle was able to make the final hit, which won the pennant that year.
The ‘escape clause’ (repentance) can restore America to her Beloved of the human marriage bed, called the Lord, while at the same time giving His marriage partner the victory in the only World Series game that counts. Misplaced love of greed for trade agreements will be extremely costly when this nation pays the price for its soul.
Don’t think the devil will not send out the lure from that wicked woman, Jezebel (Lola of Damn Yankees). America needs to take advantage of God’s ‘escape clause’ in these final hours of history and extricate herself from the clutches of liberalism, which serves only the devil, before the gavel of judgment finally comes down.
God placed Israel right at the heart of the trade route that ran north and south along the coastline of Israel (the Via Maris – the Way of the Sea) between Egypt, Assyria and points north. It crossed through Israel so she could be a light to the other nations, by never joining them, but rather by being the light of liberty to them.
God wanted to demonstrate His glory and the fact that He provided for His people from the rich land He gave to her, just as He wants to provide for spiritual Israel, His church, from these rich lands, which He has given to us in America. He equipped the Israelites in every way needed to build the nation according to His plan. To this day, the descendants of the nation excel in all fields – science, the arts and industry, something the rest of the world resents.
America excelled in the same way, leading the world in education, research and development as long as she protected her borders from those who wanted to destroy her and get rid of her God in this land. We rejoiced in the celebrations of Christmas and Easter before we allowed Muslims to come into this country, telling us we must not mention either celebration while, at the same time, they expect recognition for their religious holiday of Ramadan.
They have demanded that they be allowed to wear their hijabs to public schools, but have insisted, at the same time, that Christian believers not be allowed to wear crosses, mention the name of Jesus or carry Bibles on school premises. It is an offense, you see, to their delicate sensibilities. However, killing Christians in Muslim countries is of no offense to them. But we roll over and play dead, because we desperately want to trade with such a people at any cost.
I do not know how much of a God-fearing man Donald Trump is, but, as he suggested, any fool can see the error of our ways. Any fool can see we are paving the road for destruction daily as we allow foreign elements, which do not fear our God, to gain control of our country both from within and by our bringing down the trade barriers established by God. Does the whole oil trading business not sicken one, as one watches us pay the enemies of America dollars for oil, when our own reserves could supply the American people with all the oil they could ever need?
In the short period of time since the last war, when America prospered, praised God for her blessings, and, in her patriotism demonstrated the benefits of a country in liberty under God and His truth, the Bible was at the heart of the courtroom and the classroom. Governments began their day with prayer to the only God there is. Children were taught about God’s moral compass, by which to live their lives.
If anyone did not like our way of life, then there were other countries where they could live under religious regimes of their choice. But the world could see the benefits available to Americans that were not available in the same way in other countries. Everyone wanted to come to America for they knew the future was here. We had no qualms about teaching our children to sing our national anthems with enormous pride, as we let the world know that it is God who blesses America and rules Canada from sea to sea.
But, whatever happened to Baby Jane? They were the sixties and the flower child, Pierre Elliott Trudeau, and his cronies who took over the reins of government in Canada, all of whom suffered from ‘the liberal gene’ and the dysfunctional behavior that comes with it. He preferred to trade with Communist China, while snubbing our good neighbors to the south, for he was a product of the London School of (socialist) Economics. We owe a debt of thanks to him for those trainloads of boxcars coming from China and criss-crossing this country with Red merchandise, every box-load destroying more jobs, as our money is transferred to China to build their country at the expense of our own.
We must stop this insanity of shipping our jobs and dollars off to other countries, when we should be spending every dollar at the present time trying to help those whom our own governments have destroyed, with these same people’s own tax dollars. If we do not exit from the global markets and do so soon, then this nation is rushing headlong into a financial collapse that is going to be disastrous for everyone.
God warns over and over that a collapse is coming, bringing severe judgment upon His rebellious people. Don’t think that you can escape the coming night. Better to take a little medicine now, and endure the pain while there is still time to cure the disease, than continue on the fast track to destruction.
Take the ‘escape clause’ and repent! Turn back to God, and restore our broken borders to keep the traders of the nations out. If you turn to Him, He will return to you.
