Can We Save Canada?
As a Christian I know that things are not going to get better for us here on earth. Canada cannot be saved.
Eventually a person and a system will move into position and the world will join together and revere him and follow him as he saves the world from its own self destruction. They will say, ‘who is like him,’ and ‘there has never been a warrior like him.’ And they will worship him and put all their faith into him and blindly follow all his laws and mandates because he rules justly ‘for the greater good.’
And he will make war with the Saints of God.
This is Bible prophesy 101. Anyone reading Matt 24 and the book of Revelation with any sort of Spiritual understanding should see this. We can’t fix a Satanic system. We can’t rebuild or fight back and make this world a better place. We can’t ‘save it for our children.’ Yet we know who will triumph in the end. We know which team loses. We have the surest hope of all! Long game? We win.
Yet here I am driving in a slowroll convoy on Hwy 75 near Emerson Manitoba protesting Covid Mandates that have polluted Canada for 2 yrs now.
If we can’t prevent what is coming and if we can’t fix Satan’s system, why am I here?
Let me explain it this way.
I am participating in the truck convoy for the same reason I:
- Pick up garbage blowing around my local community
- Pull weeds out of my garden
- Wash the dust and dirt off my truck
- Would grab and hold a shoplifter
- Or call the cops when I see someone driving drunk on the road
I’m doing what is the equivalent of cleaning up my home and community. I’m doing my part to combat the weeds that are choking out the citizens of Canada; generally anything I can to stop the evildoer’s here.
I am under no illusions. The truck convoy of 2022 is not going to fix the Satanic system. The convoy will be infiltrated and taken over by anti-Christian actors and any good that it may have contained will eventually be subverted. I know this.
But just as we keep our homes, vehicles and local communities clean and try to keep those places safe … I do what I can to clean up the garbage of tyranny and stop the minions of evil from further hurting innocent people. Its husbandry, plain and simple. Even though this world is slated for destruction, we have been told that God’s creation is here, both for His own pleasure and as a gift to us to use and enjoy. All I am doing is pulling a few weeds, and tilling the soil a bit. It is an ongoing and daily job.
That is all.

Grabblers Scrabbling for Truckers Money
There are a lot of people eyeing the truckers money; rubbing their hands together … scheming and mumbling to themselves.
While it is not immediately clear from the story, the question that must be asked is, why there was any amount of money left in those accounts to be ceased? Why had that money not been distributed to truckers for fuel, for family support and for ongoing supplies which are needed to keep the trucker movement going? Surely there have been at least 1 million dollars of expenses incurred at this point …
The real truth is: All of the convoy participants including those currently at border crossings are self-supported. In other words, we are paying for this out of our own pockets. We are supplying our own fuel, food and supplies and we are all taking hits on our personal income by spending time protesting rather than working.
So where is/was the truckers money going?
Make no mistake … the money was for the truckers. It was given freely by everyday common people who felt there was little they could do in their circumstances of life, but they could donate a few dollars to those on the front lines.
And who are these ‘organizers?’
10 millions dollars changes people. Wait, no. It does not change people. It reveals who they are. And it seems there are a lot of questions to be asked of the self appointed fabulous 4 who have declared themselves the ONLY spokespeople for the truckers protests. How can an organic, populous driven movement be ‘organized’ by 4 people? How did they get appointed as the ONLY people who can speak for all? How and how much are they being paid for their ‘work’ on behalf of the truckers? Lots of questions.
Then there are the banks = more scummy grabblers.
Why did TD go to the courts to get permission to seize the money?
TD applied to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on Friday to take the funds, which were sent through GoFundMe and bank transfers, so they can either be sent to the intended recipients or returned to the donors “who have requested refunds but whose entitlement to a refund cannot be determined by TD,” the bank said in a statement.
https://globalnews.ca/news/8615490/td-bank-freezes-accounts-trucker-convoy/I seriously doubt the TD bank has ANY intention of sending the money they now control to ‘the intended recipients’ or to return the money to donors. Banks never do things for altruistic reasons, ever. Why would we believe they have suddenly changed and just want the money to go to the right people? Essentially the money in those accounts has gone from being controlled by the ‘4 official spokespeople’ to being controlled by a faceless unaccountable corporate entity whose sole purpose is to generate income. Great. Pot meet kettle.
In the end the money grubbers are gonna grabble while the people on the front lines will continue to support themselves.
If you want to support the trucker movement, do NOT give your money to shady people. Give it directly to the people on the front lines. Load up a prepaid credit card and give it directly to someone standing for your freedom. Bring a box of cookies or a jerry can of fuel to the real front lines. Support those who you can see with your own eyes … not those you see on television.
Grabblers gonna grabble. Use your money and resources wisely.

My Kind of People
These are the people I want to be associated with:
These are the people who are supporting the trucker convoy’s … and supporting the guys blocking the borders. These are my kind of people. Quiet and unassuming, yet ready to cook a meal and offer blessings and prayers. These are the people who maybe cannot stand on the front lines, but who are ready to give what they can for those they support.
Well done Susie.

Being on the Right Side of History
It’s simple. Defend the innocent. Everything else is nuance or details.
I stand arm-in-arm with those who have decided to place themselves between the defenseless innocent people of Canada and those who demand medical tyranny … or else. This is the right thing to do. This is honourable. And this is the right side of history.
Most Canadians just want to live quiet peaceable lives. “This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour.” (1 Tim 2:2,3) They want to raise their children in the fear of the Lord, not in the fear of the state.
As I type this the Government of Canada is raiding protestors in downtown Ottawa … in full paramilitary gear, with guns drawn. The state is crushing the citizens.
The time has come to choose your side. Either stand with the hammer of the state … or with the people who are quietly and peacefully facing them. Nurse Nagle just said it best on the front line:
I’m not scared of you, I’m just sad.
Heard on Winnipeg Alternative Media live feed -
I’m Just Doing My Job
The catch phrase of the tyrant.
There are no ‘good cops’ on Parliament right now. None. Good cops reject unlawful, evil orders. All these guys have decided that ‘I’m just doing my job’ is their answer to being the hammer of the state. They will answer for this cowardice, if not to the people of Canada, then to their Maker.
There are two sides in Canada. You can be with the Hammer of the Tyrant or you can stand with the people they are crushing.
Choose your team now.

When To Take A Stand – A Scriptural Perspective
We ought to obey God rather than men.
Acts 5:29This is the fundamental underlying verse that all Christians should apply to every demand from ‘authority’ here on earth.
Other Christians seem to have taken ‘Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers’ (Rom 13:1) as their Scriptural reference and have prioritized the demands of men over God’s rule. Let’s take a look at Scripture to see what God says in these regards.
Lets start with one of the greatest acts of civil disobedience found in Scripture because it was directed by God and preserved the Lord for His course of life and death for us here on earth.
I speak, of course, of the wise men who came to worship Jesus sometime before his 2nd birthday. Herod had commanded (lets call it a mandate,) them to report back to him when they had found the Lord. But God had other plans.
And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
Matt 2:12,16
Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.Herod was most certainly a ‘higher power,’ but he was also completely evil and did not use his power according to God’s law or even for good. So God commanded those wise men to refuse his mandate and go home another way. They obeyed God rather than man.
Another one:
This one is about the events surrounding the 1st Scripture quoted above. Peter and the apostles were following God’s command and spreading the gospel in the city of Jerusalem. The ‘higher powers’ commanded (mandated) that they were not allowed to teach about Jesus any more and went so far as to throw them in prison.
Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation, and laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
Acts 5:17,18But God had other plans and supernaturally freed them from prison and commanded them to go back to preaching Jesus in the temple. They obeyed God rather than man.
The ‘higher powers’ heard that they were back in the temple, not knowing or understanding how God had released them.
Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.
Acts 5:25-29
Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.
And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them, saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man’s blood (Jesus who they had murdered) upon us.
Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.Rather than backing down and trying to maintain the peace, this infuriated the rulers and they started planning out ways they could murder Peter and the Apostles. (Their plans quite probably involved using the local ‘police’ to do the dirty work. But I’m sure those officers would have been just doing their jobs.)
Finally a lawyer stepped in and advised the ‘higher powers’ that they should not follow through with their plans to crush the apostles. So when they had:
… called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded (mandated, for their health I’m sure) that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
Acts 5:40But what did Peter and the Apostles do after their arrest and release? Did they obey them that had the rule over them. Did they just go home and not tell the innocent about Jesus and the way of salvation? No!
They departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
Acts 5:41, 42
And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.Lets note a couple of things in this conflict between mans authority and God’s law.
- First. The Apostles did not fight back. There was no resisting arrest. No vile words thrown or aggression of any sort. They just ‘held the line’ and allowed themselves to be arrested. In that way they did acknowledge the authorities that God was allowing to rule. Much like the Lord when he was arrested, He went ‘as a lamb to the slaughter.’ There seems to be allowance given to defy evil laws and evil rulers but this allowance does not give license for violence. More on non-violence later.
- Second. After their arrest and release, they did not go home to ‘regroup’ or strategize. They went right back to their civil disobedience and Scripture seems to indicate that they did it with even more verve than before. When we are performing our duties for God, we don’t need to worry about what man can do. We fear the One who can kill the soul … not the one who can only hurt our bodies. (Matt 10:28)
One final example of taking a stand, and this one is future.
Conventional end times theology teaches that there will come a time of extreme evil when the ‘higher power’ will command the ‘saints’ to worship an image and receive some sort of medical procedure in their right hand or forehead in order to buy food. Sound familiar?
And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
Rev 13:7,8
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Rev 13:15-17
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.Those that don’t take the mark (who don’t just go along with what the government tells them to do,) are killed. Later we read of them asking the Lord for vengeance.
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Rev 6:9,10
And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?This is the famous ‘mark of the Beast’ passage in Revelation. (For the record: the DeathJab is not the mark as there is no worship involved.) This is the ultimate in not obeying the government as the penalty is death. They will pay the price for taking their stand. They will ‘hold the line’ to death. Amazing faithfulness!
So there we have three examples from Scripture of those who take a stand against unGodly rule by powers put in a place of authority by God. We are not called to blindly follow authority, but rather to obey God when they move away from the commands and authority given to them by God.
Observations
Using these three passages we can make some observations about how civil disobedience was performed.
In all three they chose defiance over violence. They simply disobeyed. They stood up to those in power well knowing there would be consequences, but viewed those consequences as something to rejoice in as a small price to pay for the glory of God.
The one example that I could think of that involved violence was when Peter struck off the ear of the high priests servant when they came to arrest the Lord. The Lord however, admonished him and restored the ear. Of course there were extenuating circumstances in that event as the Lord had a greater purpose to accomplish. He makes reference to being able to call down 100’s of angels to fight for Him (violence,) but would not as that was not His purpose in that place. So violence does not seem to characterize those disobeying governments.
Another observation, especially in the case of Peter and the disciples is that they faced the consequences fearlessly and with joy. The knew they were going to ‘get in trouble’ and possibly killed, but acted for the Lord with joy. In our times, can we say we are facing the possible retributions of the state with joy and without fear? If we are fearful, are we doing the right thing for the right reasons?
Final Thoughts Regarding the Canadian Government Mandates
The Canadian government and indeed most ‘democratic’ governments around the world have stepped far beyond the authority given to them of God with the mandates. God put governments in place to establish order, punish evil, and promote justice (Genesis 9:6; 1 Corinthians 14:33; Romans 12:8.) When governments move beyond these areas of authority, they are acting outside their God given position.
When the Canadian government ‘mandated’ that people must receive a medical procedure in order to work at their jobs, they moved well outside the realm of their given venue of authority. They were acting outside of God’s law. For many of us there was no urgent push for civil disobedience as these unlawful laws had little effect on our lives. However, there were also many others who were deeply affected. Many innocent people had this medical procedure done and were injured. Others succumbed to the mandate under duress in order to put food on the table. Others have lost their lives or loved ones to depression through suicide. There is no way of measuring the damage done to children by forcing them to wear masks and live in fear 24/7. This is where the truckers convoy comes in. Many truckers were being denied the ability to earn their living based on this medical procedure. This was unlawful, both in terms of our agreed upon constitution here in Canada and unlawful in the eyes of God as they overstepped their God given authority. So what to do?
If a government is operating beyond it’s God given authority, but not really hurting innocent people, should we defy it? I suppose not. We can submit to that authority and even pay a price knowing that our compliance maintains peace … even if it is an unjust peace.
However, when innocent or helpless people are being damaged by a government out of control, God’s Word, in multiple ways and places, instructs us to advocate and defend them. A few examples are:
Open thy mouth for the dumb [voiceless], for the cause of all those that are left desolate [or destitute].
Prov 31:8,9
Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and minister justice to the afflicted and needy.Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit [help] the fatherless and widows in their affliction,
James 1:27Blessed is he that considereth [helps] the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
Psa 41:1To do justice and judgment [what is right] is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
Prov 21:3So we know from God’s Word that we should help, advocate and even defend those who have no voice or who cannot help themselves. And we have read the examples from Scripture of those who have defied governments who are operating outside of Gods law. Can we, or should we, apply these instructions to the current situation in Canada?
This is the question I’m trying to answer.
If you are someone who has lost a loved one to suicide, or seen your child change because of fear … or who has lost the ability to feed your own family because of an evil government, I think the answer is clear. If you have not been touched in this way, we should exercise empathy for them and in some measure enter into their pain.
With that in mind, we who are able and strong should place ourselves between the oppressor and the oppressed. We don’t ‘fight’, as in fists or guns, but we try to prevent further damage by placing ourselves in the way. This might mean physically placing ourselves in front of the evil, or by advocacy where we defy the evil through disobedience. We must do what we can to stop evil without becoming evil ourselves.
This is my conclusion. What is yours?
Addendum.
Other examples of civil disobedience in Scripture.

- Rahab defying the King of Jericho by hiding the spies and helping them escape. Joshua 2.
- Obadiah hiding the 100 prophets from Queen Jezebel. 1 Kings 18.

- Jehosheba hid young Joash from Athaliah. 2 Kings 11.
- Most of the disciples were either prisoned or killed for preaching the gospel.
- And finally … our Lord, who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth (1 Pet 2:22) and was crucified by both the religious and the secular authorities of the day.

What is Happening in Ukraine
It’s hard to know what is really happening in the Ukraine. What is the truth? What is propaganda? Who is lying and who is telling the truth? We can’t be sure of anything.
So what to think?
These are some of the things I’ve been thinking about:
- Who is supporting which side in this ‘war?’
- What is the MSM telling us
- What are local streamers telling us
Lets take a look at who is supporting Ukraine
It seems every Satanic enemy of Christ, liberty and indeed all humanity has aligned themselves with Ukraine. Why? We know it is not a love for the Ukrainian people or because they are a ‘sovereign nation’ (when has that ever stopped them.) So what is it? Might it be that the leaders of Ukraine are hand in fist with people like Trudeau, Biden and Soros? Is it possible that the country is so riddled with corruption that all the corrupt people of the world need to defend it to keep the money (and probably children) flowing?
What we do know is that these people have been on the opposite side of the truth in every other conflict for years. Either they have caused the conflict, profited from it or hurt their potential enemies through it.
Their Satanic desire to destroy anything good, true or beautiful is well documented. Just last week we could see the demon in Chrystia Freeland jumping and twitching as she stood by her boss while he invoked Martial Law here in Canada.
If you thought that was strange, you can watch 9 minutes of Twitchy in action here.
These people are sick … actually no, that’s not right. They are possessed.
These people are not our friends. They are not on our side. Our objectives have not come together in some mysterious twist of fate to where we join hands with them in support of anything. Beware the side they have chosen.
Mainstream Media
Here in Canada, we’ve just gone through a very enlightening and eye opening experience with our mainstream media. The events over the past two weeks surrounding the Trucker Convoy and the events in Ottawa have revealed much about our governments and our media. Lets look at the events in Ukraine based on our recent experience with the mainstream media here in Canada.
During the Trucker Convoy, the media lied about virtually every major event that happened both along the way and in Ottawa. They lied both in the words spoken and images they used and just as telling, in the things they omitted. Almost every report, every opinion and every declaration was a lie. From calling the protests violent, to calling the tens of thousands of Canadians who supported the convoy racists, white-supremacist’s and even driven by Russian influence = all untrue. All laughably untrue really. Yet with straight face they repeated these lies over and over again … and discussed them as if they were facts. It was all made up.
So now lets apply our experience with the Convoy to what the MSM is telling us about the players and events in Ukraine.
Already people are pointing out the made up nonsense being passed off as factual about the ‘war’ in the Ukraine.
If war is happening the way the media wants us to believe it is happening, why all the fakes?? Why not use real footage of the ‘carnage’ and deaths? Other things the media is telling us:
- Putin is the aggressor and started the ‘war.’
- The Ukrainian army has killed many Russian solders and shot down many planes … but no video?
- That the Ukrainian president is armed and fighting on the ground. Except all they’ve shown us are some old photo’s from 2020. Is he even still in the Ukraine?
With our recent experience with a lying Mainstream Media and the plethora of fakes photos and fake news they are feeding us … is anything they report true? If we choose to learn from recent history, we would have to say No.
Local Streamers
It just so happens that our family has followed a couple of guys who do YouTube videos from the Ukraine and other parts of the former Soviet Union. We used to enjoy their travelogue type films showing how things have changed since the fall of communism there. And it just so happens these guys are streaming from Kiev.
First. This is what we are being shown and told:
Now watch Johnny FD and Bald and Bankrupt. It’s long … but they basically wander around downtown Kiev showing things tense, but not a ‘war zone.’ Also some grocery shopping and visiting with reporters who are there to film the ‘war.’
Neither of these guys are particularly based. They are jabbers and generally follow the rules. But they are not seeing what we are being told is happening in Kiev. I haven’t searched for other streamers, but I’m sure there are more. On the ground streamers are who told us the truth in Ottawa. These guys appear to be doing the same thing in Kiev.
Finally. One last point that I have learned more about since beginning this post.
Western Ukraine has been bombing and destroying Eastern Ukraine for over 7 years. They have been killing civilians, bombing infrastructure and generally destroying life for those living there. For all intents and purposes it looks like a genocide. What else would you call a country shelling it’s own people? So now we are being told to side with a leadership who, for 7 yrs, has been doing what they are accusing Russia of doing? Not sure I want to join that team. Also … fishy.
For a detailed 1st hand written experience about American interference and the shelling of Eastern Ukraine by ‘the good guys’, please spend some time reading this excellent post:
For me things are just not adding up. Too many lies. Too much propaganda from people who hate all good people everywhere. People I trust are painting a different picture.
Things are not as they want us to believe in Ukraine. That is all I know for sure.

Ukraine or Russia – Who is the Bad Guy?
One of the classic ways to problem solve is: Take what you know and apply it to what you don’t know.
Last post we looked at three aspects of the Russia/Ukraine ‘war’ that should make us pause rather than blindly saying ‘Russia Bad, Ukraine Good.’ The truth of the matter is, we are so far from them that we really don’t know what is going on, both from a historical perspective or about the events the mainstream media is currently showing us.
To understand things a little better, let try applying things we know to what we don’t know.
For now lets just take Zelensky at face value and believe what he is telling us here.
What we know: Trudeau is:
- a liar
- extremely corrupt. Multiple corruption charges since becoming PM
- a globalist with deep Soros and WEF connections
- admires dictatorships and emulates them when he can
- a racist. Multiple blackface incidents
- a misogynist. ‘She experienced it differently.’
- a coward. He ran instead of speaking with the trucker convoy, and hid in his cottage from The Cough
These are things we absolutely know —> and Zelensky says he was inspired by Trudeau.
What we Don’t Know
We know little about Zelensky the man or the leader other than what he has told us. Does his declaration of inspiration from Trudeau mean that Zelensky is all the things Trudeau is too? Maybe. Maybe not. But publicly declaring that a man with those attributes is your inspiration is not a sign of a good man. If he is even half of the evil that Trudeau is, he is still a corrupt dictator with globalist leanings.
With all the forces of evil aligning themselves with Zelensky/Ukraine AND knowing that Zelensky is inspired by one of the most corrupt, tyrannical leaders in the west, me must be careful to not jump in with them. We can have compassion on the innocent people caught in the middle without siding with all that is evil in the world today.
Think on it. Reserve judgement for now.

Search Engines and Agendas
Did a little experiment this morning. Comparing the search results of Google, vs DuckDuckGo vs Brave Search. Brave and DDG claim to be ‘privacy’ search engines, but are they messing with the results?
Lets see what they show for the following search term: ‘ukraine army shelling its own people’. (This is a controversial topic right now but there is extensive evidence that the Ukrainian Army has been indiscriminately shelling it’s own people in Eastern Ukraine for 8 yrs now. Will your search engine tell you this?)
Using the top 10 results from each:
Google: Zero articles talking about Ukraine shelling it’s own people for 8 yrs. All articles talk about Russians bombing residential areas. All ten articles are pro Ukraine or anti-Russia. Nothing that would give you any hint about what the Ukraine Army has done, either now or in the past. 100% US government line of propaganda. Garbage.
DuckDuckGo: 3 of the top 10 results talk about the Ukrainian army either firing 1st, or landing bombs on it’s own people. However, 7 of the top 10 results are pro-Ukraine and talk about either blaming the Russians for bombing civilians or that any reports of the Ukrainians bombing their own people is ‘misinformation’ from the Russians. So you might get some info on this topic from DDG, but the overwhelming results push you toward Ukraine good, Russia bad narrative.
Brave Search: 4 of the top ten actually discuss the Ukrainian army shelling Eastern Ukraine including a Bitchute video as the top result. However, they also have 2 ‘fact checking’ links which are clearly pro US/Ukraine propaganda sites downplaying any evils the Ukrainian army might have done. Overall, these results will give you some information that you can at least chase down and verify.
The results of this little test are:
Google. 100% party line agenda.
DDG. Some balance with info that you might be able to chase down.
Brave Search. Also some balance, almost 50/50. Included Bitchute which is clearly an alternative less agenda driven video site.Of the 3, Brave Search wins this battle, but only barely over DuckDuckGo and only because they have clearly indexed Bitchute.

Responding to the Local Sodomy Parade
Our small local community (which was once Christian) will be hosting their 1st ‘pride’ march on June 11th and will be raising their flag into the heavens. I’ve been thinking a lot about what has happened to our community and what our response should be.
What God’s Word says:
I was raised to believe that as a heavenly citizen I do not need to concern myself with temporal things down here. While I still believe that we cannot save a doomed earth, I have come to realize that we should do what we can to pull people from the flames of destruction. Jude 1:23 says it best, ‘others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.’
While God has given the gays over to their vile affections and the lusts of their hearts to dishonour their bodies between themselves, we should be doing what we can to prevent them from dragging others down with them. Those who commit and promote these vile acts are reprobate (disallowed of God) and are worthy of death (according to God.) (For all this read Romans 1:18-32.) For those they are trying to pervert we must attempt to save by pulling them from the fire.
What can we do?
First of all, we must protect our children. Keep your children away from these people. Do not let them be alone with your children, and certainly don’t allow them to teach your children. Pull your kids from ‘health’ classes that are there to put questions in their minds by presenting evil as good and encouraging your children to ‘experiment’ with themselves and how they feel. Hold teachers, principals and school boards responsible for what they say and do in these classes. Publicize them. Don’t allow them to teach in secret.
Next. We should not hide what God’s Word says about these vile acts. Make sure that people know where you stand so they don’t feel alone when repulsed by what they see and hear from the gay community. God sets our moral standards through His Word … and He does this because He loves us. We acknowledge His love and His Word when we believe and obey Him.
Pray for those involved. Pray that they find salvation through the Lord Jesus and what He has done on the cross for us. Pray that observers and participants alike will turn from their evil ways and believe on Him who is the source of true love.
Do we protest the parade? The answer for me is no. The gay community has gained a huge win by hosting one of their vile events in a Mennonite community. The media will be everywhere looking for opposition and will not give a fair report of any who openly oppose the parade. It will be fuel for their hatred of God and His people … and if we can, we should try to avoid giving them the spark they want. Rumour also has it that the local police force will be ‘preventing’ protestors from expressing themselves. After watching our local ‘Serve and Protect’ force during Covid, I don’t doubt this rumour. If you do decide to attend the debauchery parade, please be careful and avoid the violence that will be focused on you.
Finally, we need to pray for the community. Our leaders plan to spit in the face of God this weekend by raising the Sodomy flag toward heaven. They are literally begging God to bring down judgement upon us. There are many good people, many innocents and many who want no part of this evil living in our community. We need to pray that God will protect them and us as our leaders are call for judgement. Thank goodness we know that God’s will … will be done.
