But I had a different take. I told them that they were stealing the flags because they wanted to destroy them. The lights came on for them, as they had never thought of that before.
Friends, we are engaged in another great Civil War, only it is more like a cold civil war than the one fought in the 1860s.
People are openly defiant toward our country. Their actions reveal what is going on in their hearts. These people are so filled with hatred that it is infecting the whole country right now.
The two dividing issues really have to do with government. How much power should the government have? To what degree are we going to trust the government with? How big should the government be?
The whole idea of government is really based upon the ability for its citizens to have self-government. The government should not need to have a great amount of control over us. We should be the ones making our decisions and living out our belief systems. Government should not control our thinking and decision making. But that is what one group believes and is fighting for.
The issue centers around the subject of responsibility. Who is responsible for me? The liberal Left has decided that certain groups of people are 'victims', and therefore they are no longer responsible for their actions. The liberal Left seems to be skilled in creating victim groups for they know that if they can lead the people to believe that they are helpless victims, they (the liberal Left) will come to their rescue. Then those helpless victims will support the Democratic party with their votes. These citizens and the Democratic party will feed off each other.
The Bible tells us we are responsible for ourselves. It is not the government's responsibility to take care of us and do all our thinking and decision making. God created us with skills to develop. He wired each person a certain way, and that person, if in the right kind of environment, will develop those skills and make a living to provide for himself or herself and their families. This is how people thrive.
The liberal Left will remove the desires and ambitions of developing skills that can help and serve us for our lifetimes. Instead, the liberal Left will demote people who work hard and are successful in their jobs, and will take their money and use it for the government's benefit. So, the hard working person is really only living to serve the government, and the government in turn, will serve the victimized person by doing his or her thinking and decision making, and by paying all their bills. This form of government will keep the person dependent on them.
Anyway, sadly people in this country are either ignorant or naive to the fact that there is nothing for free. These people who tell us that they will fight for free education and health care, are only pipe dreaming. If this objective were possible, then someone else would have figured out a long time ago, how to make it work. It doesn't just happen on its own. It can't happen because it is impossible. Unless you want to steal from other people groups, which is unjust.
So, these groups of people who think they are victimized, are the angry, hateful ones, who burn and trash American flags. They want a new America. They want an America that offers everything for free. Isn't this what the Socialistic ideology is all about?
But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. 1 Timothy 5:8
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Romans 14:12
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
But he that had received one went and dug in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
After a long time the lord of those servants came, and reckoned with them.
And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou delivered unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou delivered unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knew that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him who has ten talents.
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that doesn't have shall be taken away even that which he has.
And cast the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 25:14-30
