Are you among those protected by your faith to survive and walk out of the tribulation destroying our world? (Dan 3:17-29)

• 1^st Group: Many in the U.S. want to protect the rights of people who are legal citizens, that also defining they want all the illegals gone. If a person hasn't even bothered to learn to speak English and follow the law, they feel, they are not serious about being an American; thus demonstrating they don't belong. (Judges 12:5-6) [Like it or not, the fact remains, there is nothing more divisive than language. (Gen 11:5-9)] This first group considers their work of weeding out illegals to be that of protecting their neighbors and our nation from criminals, and so, their mission is righteous and above reproach; in their mind. They are self-righteously or even righteously indignant over what they consider the abuse of others by illegal aliens. Many are sincere enough to kill for their belief, if they feel forced.

• 2^nd Group: These others also want to think of themselves as righteous and charitable, which is accomplished in their mind, by extending love to everyone. Most individuals in this second group naively imagine all immigrants will become good citizens if treated well. [Not wanting to take a side for or against, but still acknowledge all sensible people must realize even our good God knows that is not true; or, He would not have had to say He is killing everyone among all of mankind who is proved wicked at heart. (John 3:17-21; Gen 19:15-16; Psa 37:10-15) In the past God killed many wicked people. He said He is about to kill a lot more. (Psa 91:7-12; Luke 17:26-30)] Supporters of this 2^nd group are mostly seeking popularity and feel they must be, or at least appear, self-righteously or righteously indignant over what they consider the abuse of illegal aliens; and of others caught up in the company of illegals. They cheer on and support the escalating demonstrations; which always lead to violence. Many of the actual demonstrators who follow their directions are sincere enough to kill for their belief, if they feel forced.

[That is a terrifying spectacle to be near; as each huge beast sort of looses its mind. Seeing and hearing of all else shuts down. All that exists to each bull is the battle; until one is dead. They seem locked in their rage and it is nearly impossible to distract them to break in.]

[We actually just saw the one who has the audacity to refer to himself as God's appointed "supreme leader" (Acts 12:21-24; Mat 23:1-15) invite military trained mercenaries into his nation to rape and pillage and murder, as his way to beat down unrest. What do you imagine he thinks he will do with all those murderers after? Pat them on the head and send them home? He likely used foreign [probably religious] mercenaries because his own military wouldn't slaughter their neighbors for him. In murdering unknown thousands by his hand, it seems he has cut off his own head and destroyed his nation in the process. Who could any longer imagine he is a servant of God? Do you suppose he could still imagine himself in service to God? Did he ever? They say he has plans to flee to Russia. He did say "God" is protecting him... Does he imagine Putin can protect him if God won't? Or, does that mean he is just another puppet ruler placed by Putin as we have seen Putin do to gut and destroy other nations? Putin has used that trick many times! Does self proclaimed supreme leader really imagine Putin will elevate and take care of him? I wonder what became of Bashar al-Assad after he was overthrown as one of Putin's former puppet dictators? Is Bashar living the life of luxury, or in a guilded cage awaiting what is to be done with him? Does he fear the downfall of Russia, or even of Putin?]

God's one and only rule or command for Eve and Adam was not to eat from "His" tree! (Gen 2:15-17) Respecting God's ownership of the tree of knowledge of good and bad simply meant respecting his Godship to decide what is right!

Never say יהוה doesn't hear or answer prayers.
God has been speaking to mankind,
including you, for 6000 years.
Are you listening?
(Heb 1:1-6)

Job 33:13 of 13-30 ESV ...Why do you contend against him [God], saying, 'He will answer none of man's words'?

Job 33:14-18 of 13-30 GNB ...Although God speaks again and again, no one pays attention to what he says. At night when people are asleep, God speaks in dreams and visions. (16) He makes them listen to what he says, and they are frightened at his warnings. (17) God speaks to make them stop their sinning and to save them from becoming proud. (18) He will not let them be destroyed; he saves them from death itself.

Heb 1:1-2 ESV ...Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, (2) but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.
Mat 17:5 Plus GNB ...While he was talking, a shining cloud came over them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my own dear Son, with whom I am pleased---listen to him!"

[Here in the Nashville area, {1^st days Feb. 2026} we have had an unbelievably bad ice storm. We see the power company working 14 and 16 hour days trying to restore power. Rather than being thankful, people cry for their heads, demonstrating in the streets to hold someone responsible; many no doubt wanting to harm them only in seeking financial reward for themselves. We see so called news reporters shove a microphone in some power company officials face and ask if they feel responsible for those who froze to death. Is that reporting the news or inciting riots? That is the caustic world we are surrounded by, (2 Pet 2:6-9) and, that is why it is being destroyed by God! (Mat 24:36-42)]
