Voice of the Kingfisher speaks out …from a different perspective

The headlines of today are yesterday’s prophecy. We listen endlessly to foolish leaders and would-be-leaders, who think they have the right policies for domestic and foreign affairs, yet they do not even come close to having the answers.
Forever hopeful, I watched three nights of the RNC (Republican National Convention), looking for the spirit of God’s truth to surface as the only foundation, which made America a light of liberty to the religious, suffering nations of this world. I was hoping to find some relevance to what was in the hearts of the Founding Fathers, who, in many cases had braved the journey westward across the ocean to reach a land where the religions of the East could not dictate the direction of their lives.
The pilgrims and Puritans were of such stock that they could no longer stand the interference of a state, which wobbled back and forth between the papal control of Rome over the monarchy and that of the Anglican Church. The Canadian settlers, on the other hand, brought this struggle with them, but the Founding Fathers, to their credit, while remaining loyal to the Queen of England, rejected her religion for God and His truth of the Bible. If either Americans or Canadians wanted to indulge in religion, it would be on their own time and not on that of the state, the firm foundation of which was founded on the truth of the Bible, in the classroom, in the courtroom, and in the houses of government, all ruled by God and His Word.
Religion still permeated the lives of Americans, with the essence of liberty going all the way back to creation where God gave man free will. He was created as a living, breathing human being into whom God breathed the Spirit of life, causing him to be made in His pluralistic image. As the God of truth, He had zero tolerance for the lies of Satan, which led to religion and liberalism from Him.
Man was free to make his choice between obedience to the truth of the Law, thus retaining the Spirit of life to serve God in His Garden kingdom, and submitting his life and soul to Satan, the author of lies and religion. By choosing the latter, he would make the choice to surely die in a world outside the kingdom, ruled by the forces of darkness, which destroy the soul and return man back to dust.
It was Rome, the last of the Babylonian Empires, which took the Lord’s church into the captivity of religion, to remove her from her foundation of truth. The Roman Empire was failing, so Satan cleverly kept Romanism alive by transforming the concept of church into a Babylonian system of religion. The Roman emperor, Constantine, was Satan’s agent who created this new-found religion of Christianity. In the process he renamed the church, the Roman Catholic Church, which, in its apostasy, had no relationship, whatsoever, to the true church of Jesus Christ and His apostles.
Now, Jesus came to break wide open the entire religious world system for which there was no place in the Law or the kingdom. There were to be no religious idols of worship before God. Jesus established His church on the revelation that He was the Son of God and the Son of truth because He was the Son of the God of truth who had zero tolerance for Satan and his empires of Cush (Egypt), Assyria and Babylon, or for their spiritual rivers of religious waters.
He made sure the religious Pharisees who prayed fervently in their religion to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, were told that they were not the sons of Abraham at all, and in no way had received the inheritance of His Father God; they, in point of fact, were sons of the devil, spouting religious prayers.
“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it (John 8:44).” These same priests of the temple built for God stood before a condemned Jesus and told Pilate, “We have no king but Caesar (John 19:15)!”
They were priests of the same Babylonian system of which a priest, dressed in black, priestly robes, came out on the stage of the RNC to pray as a son of the devil. The devil loves to sport the cross because he cannot deny it; so he tarnishes it with the lies of religion and continues, like the Pharisees, to raise his eyes to heaven in his most eloquent and flowery prayers, to be recited in the market place, where he becomes the center of attention. The stage of the RNC was all about the market place and America’s economic problems, one of the three Babylonian six’s. The priest represented another of the three six’s as he stood there in all his religious glory to receive his reward in this world.
Jesus warned His followers about such prayers. “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. But when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him (Matthew 6:5-8).”
Jeb Bush, brother of former President, George Bush, made an eloquent plea for education and the need for it to be elevated to a higher level, which, of course, involves freeing it from the deadly control of the state. The governments of America have become the enforcers of the liberal agenda, which is being inflicted upon our children in the classroom. But I did not hear him cry for the Bible to be returned to the classroom, or demand that the religion of Secular Humanism, which is poisoning them with lies, be thrown out and replaced by truth, as our Founding Fathers had intended from the beginning.
Mitt Romney makes the case, in part, for his competence in being the leader we need today in government, by citing his business skills used to save the last Olympics held in America, an event straight from Babylon itself, honoring the mythical gods of this world, which God has forbidden in the Law. “You shall have no other gods before Me (Exodus 20:3).” This is the very first commandment, which the Republicans have broken, yet, take credit, over and over again, for Romney’s skill at doing so.
While they endorse running for these gods and carrying the counterfeit torch of Satan, they reject raising high that incredibly important torch of light seen by Abraham in a dream, many thousands of years ago, upon which all of history rests. And it came to pass, when the sun went down and it was dark, that behold, there was a smoking oven and a burning torch that passed between those pieces (Genesis 15:17). The Olympic stage is a breeding ground for satanic symbolism, which the Republicans, in their religious fervor, fail to recognize.
And a torch from out of Hollywood most certainly appeals to this generation, which spends its time, from cradle to the grave, searching for its “child, teen, or adult idol”, which it can elevate to the status of a god, mainly as sex gods and goddesses. Clint Eastwood was just such an idol of the macho-male, Hollywood star. Yet, it did not matter to this religious group, which touts fine family principles, that he could reference one of the most disgusting words the liberal, main-stream media uses. It is a word intentionally used to denigrate the very essence of marriage, with its purpose for multiplying so that there can be more sons for God.
It was truly a convention, the energy of which vibrated with religion, whereby man’s goodness was emphasized, ignoring God’s Word, which says, But we are all like an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags; we all fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away (Isaiah 64:6). And, on a personal note, I would have to say to Paul Ryan that the music of the convention would have been the deal-breaker for me, if, indeed, there ever was a deal. Satan permeates the music of today, and how can one make a deal with the devil to provide a backdrop for a moral message?
Has God not shown us with this RNC that if it is the devil and his religion, which Americans want more than they want the truth, as they clamor for religious freedoms, then God will give them religion instead of liberty in truth? He will pour the spiritual seawaters of Satan, full of reptiles and creeping things, over America, where the water will linger as long as she wants its destructive power destroying her homes and land, which God wanted to bless for having chosen constitutions founded on His truth.
Unless we get down on our knees and beg God for forgiveness for having rejected His truth, don’t ever think for a minute that He will pour out His blessings on this nation. He will destroy it with the very religion we choose, signified by the pomposity of the priest, wearing his shiny cross while strolling out on the RNC stage in his priestly robes, which were a far cry from the simple, seamless robe Jesus wore, for which the Roman soldiers cast lots. They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says: “They divided My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots (John 19:24).”
Rome and all of Christianity are still gambling for this seamless robe, but they will never acquire it at the gambling tables of religion, where there are only losers and no winners. The priestly robes of Babylon are dark, combined with the richness of the shiny gold of the economic system of the world empires. The priestly robes of Jesus are light, based on the good gold of Havilah, the worship of God, in spirit and in truth.
Until we demand that our leaders remain in line with our Constitutions, which stand on God and His truth and not on religion, then it is religion we will get. For the devil wears Prada, and how does one make a deal with the devil? Probably within the religious temple-buildings of the money-changers among the priesthood, who raise their eyes to heaven, while their hearts are in the spiritual waters beneath.
