"I am he who urges you not to be trodden upon,
but to strike at the heel of any
who dare to try to crush your head.
I am he who declares as sacred
your right to keep all your profit—
more sacred than lives standing in the way.
I am he who says to fear those
who can kill the body and take away
your freedom and your wealth.
I am he who fights with you
against all flesh and blood enemies,
foreign and domestic.
I am he who takes up arms
instead of the Cross,
and you follow me.
I am the god in whom you trust, America,
the god you founded your kingdom upon,
and the god you have chosen to unite under."
- The American Jesus

We have become what we worship. Eyes that cannot see, ears that cannot hear, and throats that cannot speak.

Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed." - Isaiah 6v9-10
Some of the saddest words in all of Scripture.
ReplyDeleteyes, a very sad commentary of people who refuse to hear truth and so as they say in all AA MEETINGS THEY HAVE CREATED A GOD OF THIER OWN UNDERSTANDING..
