• Obama, the guy who is claiming executive privilege to keep details of his Pathway to a Nuclear Iran deal negotiations secret, is in Japan giving an implicit-apology for bombing Hiroshima. (Despite WH denials that Obama apologized, that is simply speech-parsing buy lawyers.*)
• V.A. Secretary Robert A. McDonald compared the time veterans wait to receive care at the VA to the amount of time people wait in line at Disneyland.
• Pope Francis invites Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, highest authority in Sunni Islam, to the Vatican and the press reports that " Divine religions were revealed to make people happy."
• Obama's Fast and Furious guns have now been shown to be linked to over 250 deaths.
• Twenty-eight pages of the 9/11 report are still being repressed.
• A documentary film investigating causes of autism is suppressed.
• The New York City Human Rights Commission released a list of 31 different terms of gender expression employers must use or face $250,000 fines; all but two of them name various forms of deviancy.
Headline after headline underscores 2 Thessalonians 2:10-11, "Because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them, God will send them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie."
God sends them a strong delusion because they do not love the truth.
If we stop and wonder why the world seems to be so crazy, we come to the conclusion that at its root, the the love for the truth is on the decline.When people lie to you, the situation can go one of two ways—they either double down and the lie becomes bigger, or you call them out on it and deal with it from there.
The minute they admit the lie, everything crumbles.
No one wants to consider, much less admit, that they might be under strong delusion. And yet, signs of delusion abound; moreover, they are often easily spotted when scripture is used as the baseline for truth.
The Lesson
For someone who loves the truth, it is not hard to see how strong delusion in has affected politics. Hillary Clinton has been caught in innumerable lies, and yet to hear her speak, one gets the impression that she still believes what she is saying. Obama refuses to label the terrorists as Islamic, even though to a lover of truth, it is obvious that their religion is driving them to rape and kill. And then, this Memorial Day weekend he again exposes his delusional ideas about American history* in his speech in Hiroshima, Japan.
It is harder to admit that persons for whom you had such great expectations stopped loving the truth. And tragically, that is the case with the runaway bride.
God's will is real and knowable. KatieLyn knew His will. And Satan came and sowed tares of ungodly thoughts in the field of her mind. These words did not come from God, but when a person considers and dwells on wrong thoughts, those thoughts conform them to an ungodly world. KatieLyn was willing and susceptible to thinking wrong thoughts because they came fro the person she trusted the most—her mother. But thinking wrong thoughts taints the atmosphere, and they fought until their fights became bigger than the truth.
A thought has spiritual substance. It will shape and mold a person. The person becomes conformed into the image of the thought. It is true that KatieLyn changed her mind, but I doubt that she knows how or why: She changed her mind by thinking her mother's thoughts. Her mom had told her that it was "wise" to consider these things, but that was the delusion that came when she stopped loving the truth that the Lord had revealed to her.
* Obama did not technically say "I'm sorry, I apologize," but he did say that America was wrong.
"Truman understood that not using the atom bombs would have condemned millions of service members to death or debilitating injury. Japanese resistance grew significantly as US forces neared Japan, and, expecting fanatical Japanese resistance, American military planners repeatedly increased projected US casualties. The calculus could not have been clearer.[...] Truman wanted to end World War II and save American lives, and also lay the basis for sustained international peace. ...Obama casually trashes Truman’s courageous decision."
