For those who hardly miss the news in sports, we know that Caitlyn Jenner aka Bruce Jenner was recognized for his/her supposed "courage" and was duly awarded the Arthur Ashe Award for courage. Hollywood superstars, elite athletes, media personalities, and all belonging to the elite that filled the auditorium, can't help but get their eyes fixated at an imposing figure in white body-hugging dress that glided towards the center of the podium. With her flowing hair and feminine look, she was every inch a lady, not until she opened her mouth.
And as soon as she did, fantasies faded abruptly that brought everyone back to their senses, for not even their feigned applause could erase the fact that she is still a he, a former Olympic champion, who sired six progenies by three women, as a matter of proof. Though elegantly dressed and hair perfectly done, no amount of technology can belie the fact that a statuesque figure being celebrated as "woman of courage" sounded very much like a real man that he is, in every sense. Truth be told, the idea that man's war against God's natural order can get people on the pedestal simply cannot be affirmed by loud applause and standing ovation.
Putting appearance aside, how on earth a 66-year old father of six who in his twilight years suddenly announced he is a she, got for himself a "courage award"? for what? People who are still in their right minds subsequently complained of such travesty that befell the Oscars of sports when there are legions of other stories in sport that could have easily merited them the award; but why an over-hyped old man in drag who had just caused the death of one person in a car crash, suddenly walked away with the "courage award"? courage for what?
I'm sure I'm not alone in my thoughts that every day that passes leaves us a thing or two that impact our existence one way or another. You wake up to a new day only to see that people around you go gaga over latest craze or trend. The ambivalence people get to experience when confronted with upgrade in technology at a breakneck speed is undeniably evident. And you see attempts at exercising caution in social media being a tangible product wrought by political correctness; and it is political correctness that dictates, and most often than not, shapes society's perception of what is good and evil. But in a maze of confusion, somehow, the very basic and fundamental distinction of good from evil gets intertwined so that what is easily perceived as good to one, looks evil to another, and vice-versa.
Christianity vis-a-vis homosexuality and political correctness
Very few people doubted that once same-sex marriage gets enacted into law, there'd be no stopping some other forms of perversion that could get legally recognized under the pretext of "basic human right". They did succeed with their agenda with flying (rainbow) colors, then the aggressive institutionalization of perversion and depravity follows. Those that show disagreement are readily labeled bigot and hater. Truth is now the new hate speech. Obviously, homosexual rage is directed at Christians who cannot be silenced for their stand of the biblical definition of marriage. Now, the madness intensifies as Christians conveniently figure at the lookout list for potential terrorists as the Pentagon would have it in its report and therefore become easy targets for arrest. If it's not insanity of the highest order, what is it? How do you cope with such reasoning?
We see how the devil uses political correctness to twist even the definition of good to make it appear evil and evil good. America has now pioneered the labeling of Bible-believing Christians as the new evil, while the perverts and sodomites are the new heroes. There is nothing more obvious in the conduct of state affairs in America than its bias against Christians. Talk about a nativity scene that adorns the lawns of every town hall or city hall in America, and you get raucous crowds of atheists and homosexuals screaming on top of their lungs protesting in anger the next.
We saw how Obama had the entire White House lit up in rainbow colors in honor of perversion but stayed clear of pinpointing Islamic fanaticism as reason for the killings of five soldiers in Chattanooga, Tennessee, despite the fact a homegrown Islamic terrorist was the one responsible. If only to give weight to Pentagon's classifying of Christians as potential terrorists, then by all means he could lie all he wants, feed his fantasies, and convince himself his favored religion is all about peace and Christians are terrorists. If anything, this double standard is Obama's show of disgust for Christianity that could gradually serve as springboard for greater Christian persecution in America.
After same-sex marriage, pedophilia next, and comes endless possibilities
Prior to the enactment of same-sex marriage as law of the land, Christians and conservatives alike had their worries confirmed should same-sex marriage passes into law, that is, nothing would be off limits. They had foreseen it is forthcoming, and here it is why: Using the same tactics used by gay rights activists, pedophiles have begun to seek similar status arguing their desire for children is a sexual orientation no different than heterosexuals or homosexuals. In their argument, just like homosexuality, pedophilia is also a sexual orientation and therefore pedophiles should be granted their rights to practice their lifestyles - that is at the expense of your children. Psychiatrists are now beginning to advocate redefining pedophilia in the same way homosexuality was redefined several years ago.
Here is more alarming but should not come as a surprise nonetheless: The US Federal government no less has granted pedophilia protected status in its Hate Crime Prevention Act; this is to safeguard their rights from stereotyping. Well, so much rights granted for so much perversion but little or no rights for advocates of good. At least we get to witness the slippery slope America is headed towards; and most likely the same trajectory the world at large is traversing at a dizzying pace.
This has become the trend: the world is quick to glorify anything deviant, evil and immoral under the guise of acceptance and equality. First, you have the homosexuals fighting for their "human rights" which in reality is an effort to shove their perversion down everyone else's throat. Then comes the pedophiles who argue that theirs is no different than homosexuals who are only expressing their lifestyles. When Obama lit up the White House in rainbow color, that was the consummate sign of the glorification of evil, and if current trend is anything to go by, the evil epidemic on a global scale is set to take hold.
America at the forefront of war against morality
While Obama's America ensures homosexuality and other forms of perversion are called basic human rights, the same thing cannot be said for well-meaning individuals who only want to do good. In some cities, feeding the homeless is punishable by law that could land you in jail. Humans don't require to be micro-chipped or brainwashed to hold view that compassion is a virtue that can be dispensed if need be, it comes with his DNA upon birth as God-given component of his being. But you have America that glorifies every representation of evil but vilifies that which represents good, moral and compassionate.
How many millions of babies get slaughtered every year in America because they believe human embryo complete with organs, face and limbs are not yet humans? and showing the world how all these "specimens and tissues" can be a lucrative business? These are the same people who shout "protect women's rights" and force their way through the halls of Congress to see to it that women can have sex all they want without fear of getting pregnant as the state is there to their rescue and aid them to murder their babies any time they want.
America is the champion of "human rights" and the world better be ready to copy America. Paramount to these "rights" are the rights of homosexuals to practice their perversion and this was at the forefront of Obama's mission when he traveled to Kenya. He very much sounded like the president and spokesperson of the greatest gay country on earth, virtually ditching the unmistakable stars and stripes for the rainbow flag, when he shamelessly pontificated on the "homosexual rights" as though he bleeds for the most persecuted group of people on earth. Despite prior knowledge that Kenyans disapprove of his agenda to bring in America's culture of depravity and godlessness into their country, Obama has the temerity to lecture at Kenyans as though the future of Kenya and its relations with America depends on the amount of rights his beloved group of people is getting in their own country.
We see how America as a state flexes its muscles by subtle threat or by intimidation to see to it that every country at its mercy applies in its own shore what America deems as free exercise of "basic human rights", paramount of which is homosexual rights (e.g. same-sex marriage) that is frowned upon in most countries for cultural and moral reason. Obviously, Obama is in no mood to exercise self-restraint in his aggressive yet intrusively disrespectful lobbying for more immorality and perversion to thrive in countries where citizens are proud of their love for God and His natural order.
If in certain aspects America has failed time and again beyond fix (i.e. economy, immigration and foreign relations), it has succeeded nonetheless in one aspect and with flying colors: the hastening of God's wrath upon America for its glorification of anything abominable; from sexual perversion to murdering millions of babies annually, to pedophilia being identified as sexual orientation just as homosexuality is, and God knows what's next, as endless possibilities can come in handy, now that the mother of all perversions and depravity is the law of the land.
Good is the new evil and evil good
If there indeed observable evolution that has taken place, it is society's spontaneous tendency to adapt to blinded reasoning as pernicious as the embrace of evil to be good and good evil. We're aware of people running into law and getting punished for feeding the homeless, of a teacher who lost his job because he gave his inquisitive student a Bible, and in a twist of fate, of students who got suspended from school for giving out donuts with Bible verses to teachers and students alike.
Cases of Christians running afoul with either government authorities, or school officials, or private establishments because they did or wanted to do good - is in abundance - solely because they are being targeted for their Christian faith. These people know for a fact that true Christians have in their heart the unquenchable desire to always do good and impact the lives of people around them in a positive way - because that is what Jesus is all about.
Christian students being refused admission to a specific course in a college or university happens on a regular basis because they failed in interviews for honestly answering usual question as to who or what motivates them to succeed. These interviewers who virtually hold the key for the realization of these students' dreams to be accepted to their chosen course do not like hearing it's their faith in God that motivates them.
This is not a simple case of Christians being at the receiving end of random persecution in school, government and in the workplace - because of their faith. It has now become institutionalized persecution to keep Christians at bay from impacting societal norm that is increasingly getting more demonic by the day. When you have sodomites invited to state dinner and homosexuals parading their anatomies and all sorts of vulgarities in high streets for all men, women and children to see; and the systemic glorification of all sorts of perversion - and you have simple act of kindness and intents to do good being punished - God's judgment is indeed upon the earth. Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will be in the days of the Son of Man (Luke 17:26).
We all have been witnesses to man's audacious rebellion against a holy God as epitomized in this generation. From redefining the millennia-old biblical definition of marriage to suit man's vagaries driven by the lust of the flesh, to the commercialization of "specimens" otherwise known as murdered fetuses for profit, and to erecting a statue of Satan in Detroit, Michigan as an ultimate symbol of man's hatred for God; practically there is no off limit for any sort of evil to take root and get embedded in a society where God is systematically kicked out and abhorred.
Deception, warning and God's wrath, but solace for those who wait
Man is being deceived into believing that he can fight and ultimately defeat God. He hates the concept of a Supreme Being who governs the universe with justice and righteousness. He wants to be his own god. He wants to do the things that please him even if they violate moral conscience which is God's thumbprint in his being. He takes pleasure in the defilement of his own body and of others. He believes he does humanity a disservice if he continues leading a life that which God has naturally designed for him as opposed to something else he intends to be. His views and reasoning become twisted, devoid of character and overtaken by carnality, then he calls good evil and evil good.
Did not God forewarn man for his rebellion against Him? In fact, Scripture is replete with them. Isaiah 5:20 says, "Woe to them that call evil good and good evil, that put darkness for light, and light for darkness, that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter." In Psalms 37: 1,2 King David predicted the fate of all doers of wickedness when he says, "Fret not yourself because of evildoers, neither be envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb." And finally, the apostle Paul had this warning in 1 Corinthians 6:9,10 which says, " Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortionists, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
In every argument man puts forth, it is God who will have the final say. Man can mock God all he wants but the Scripture assuredly says that "God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life (Galatians 6:7,8). As disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ we are not to be caught off-guard at the increase in wickedness in this last age. The Book of Daniel reminds us so when God instructs Daniel, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end. Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand (Daniel 12: 9,10). Let us therefore persevere in our walk with Christ no matter the troubles along the way for we take comfort in that Blessed Hope, that day when He appears so that we will be with him forever. Amen.
