Con men and the Truth

Con Men and the Truth:
 
Preface: I was recently reminded by another dear believer by the name of Jan that we are to constantly edify the body of Christ. I could not agree more. The most important factor being to always adhere to and follow the words of Christ which are life. With that said – please take a read: 
 
…and get ready for a wild ride.
 
Most people when they hear the words con men will instantly have their hackles raised. They have been pre conditioned to avoid these unsavory unscrupulous types like the plague. They pride themselves as “sharpies” being able to pick out a hustler way before they make their sting.
 
Almost anyone can tell you that con men must be avoided at all costs - it is only the by-product result of discovering the con that makes them so detestable beforehand, otherwise the person being conned is oblivious. In other words, if they are not aware or ambivalent to the con it still remains that they are being taken in. Con by the way is short for “confidence”.
 
The huge irony being - The people who have confidence in the con man for the time being don’t know they’re being conned. Pretty slick right?
 
What they don’t realize is when the “con is on” they will still be mesmerized into believing and hoping that things will change for the better. It’s the old assumption that they think their situation will improve and they want to believe in that person. So when the “goods” are not delivered, they still keep believing since to say or do otherwise would be akin to defeat and they would have to take the official stance of being deceived and that would put them in an awkward position not only personally, but professionally. Like the Bible says: “pride goes before the fall”. Like marionettes on a stage they have no reference point to gauge the veracity of true intentions until it is too late. Then, they will have been “taken” and betrayed. Like a spider that has set a trap and caught it’s prey in a web of deceit.
 
Life seems like one big giant ad campaign now where disinformation is being spoon fed like a conveyor belt of malignant sound bites. Take the debacle of the banking system. If you are caught for shoplifting you may go to jail however, all the myriad overleveraging, exotic derivatives, and financial “instruments” that were orchestrated by the largest investment banks in the world (which are now largely insolvent); are not even being remotely investigated. Where did all the money go? Only Bernie Madoff was convicted and he plea-bargained right off the bat probably because they didn’t want him spilling the beans on who was really implicated. Con man? Absolutely. Almost seems like they offered him up as a scapegoat. Apparently now, if a person criticizes the banking system; they are now considered as a conspiracy malefactor… (I prefer Agenda Identifier)
 
The shell game goes on…
 
Interesting how in the Word it says that the love of money is the root of all evil.
 
But all that is OK because trillions, and trillions of taxpayer’s dollars have been allocated to fix the problem. It sure makes a whole lot of sense to pay off astronomical debt with more astronomical debt right??? Or could there be another agenda… 
 
Two steps back, one step forward (and repeat)
 
Now, you and every human being is being conditioned asking to take the blue pill. Blue being friendly. The red pill being alarmist but at least knowing the difference á la the Matrix. No wonder they say art imitates life. Except, as in the Matrix, you will be considered the enemy if you take the red pill. Morpheus: You take the blue pill and the story ends…
 
The irony of ironies being that while people have lost almost half of their paper stock savings (401k’s)  and 30% of their home values, they are being trillionized into oblivion and are still believing that things will get better all the while the greatest transfer of wealth the world has ever known is going on right before their very eyes.
 
Keep your eye on the shell…
 
Things are going on in a much grander sense where the momentum is again spiraling down into the abyss of how things are “spinned” and to what intended effect. Recently noticed was a national document that berated and marginalized so-called “extremists” who are now identified as the enemy for what amounts to seeking the truth. On top of that was the brazen audacity for inferring that our troops returning home from the endless wars that we fight are now a national security risk. As one being acquainted with the English language; there are no words to describe this sickening contempt. Or, is this a planned out on-schedule gauge in order to test the resolve of the people? And why?
 
George Orwell in his novel 1984 called this two plus two equals five (2 + 2 = 5). If you are told this enough times – you will eventually believe it. Also, now pessimism has no place in the national lexicon. Optimism has now replaced pessimism (or so they tell us). Sure looks like Newspeak to me…
 
Now the shell game changes - two steps forward and one step back.
 
Even people who are considered normal and question the intentions of the banking elite who have seemingly transferred trillions of dollars out of the system and then re-transferred more trillions of dollars into the system with your money (that you didn’t have) are now claiming a market rebound…
 
Keep your eye on the shell…
 
It has long been expected there will be another paradigm shift, a pandemic of sorts; a strategic inflection point that will usher in a new set of dynamics that will further rig the game. As a result, more draconian measures will be put into place to placate and pacify the people for their own good (or so you will be told).
 
The people will still have confidence that their benevolent officials are only thinking of their best interests at heart. Just like they did years ago by outsourcing American jobs overseas to third world nation labor camps to export back here goods to the mega box stores that the sheeple swarm to like cattle to buy supposedly discounted goods at Target or Wal-Mart. They totally forget what it means to hear the phrase “Made in America”.
 
The industrial and technological aspect of this outsourcing is breathtaking to the point where we now fully realize that our country has been left as an overburdened creditized shell of a service economy whose day of reckoning is at hand. And the VERY people who years ago pointed out these ominous evil trends were vilified and ridiculed as outcasts.
 
Yes, the frog is almost cooked.
 
Get ready for more hate crime bills, free speech censoring, the right to bear arms confiscation, and restrictive internet access (oh yeah, all in the name of liberty).
 
It is mind-boggling that people can still persist in their blinded reverence to the very forces that are dead set to destroy them. They are truly like sheep to the slaughter. No small wonder where in the Word we see all the prophets of God who bitterly lament for their people. I don’t claim to be a prophet but a watchman on the wall and these things are only for people who have eyes to see and ears to hear. The rest well, they have to maintain their own “confidence” and usually lambaste the watchmen as “hateful”. Mind you – the very people who point out the truth do so because they love the Truth, the true Truth (and not what you are being sold). My response has always been I don’t hate anything or anyone – I just happen to love the Truth more.    
 
Religion is the same way with all the permutations of diametrically divergent doctrines that dominate organized corporate Christianity. The irony being that they all think that their dogma and doctrine is the right Church while they are intrinsically joined (married) to the state that created them. They have outsourced their True spiritual identity and liberty for a tax exemption and persist in their confidence that their paid ecclesiastical leaders will lead them to the promised land. They claim Romans 13 to anyone who has the conviction to question their standing however; they have negated the true intent of Romans 13 which was to respect their spiritual “elders” and not the government that has dominance over them. Of course the government will play them like a fiddle and smoke them like a cheap cigar in the end (sorry for mixing metaphors). The truth in the matter is quoted below:
 
Rev 17:6 - The beast shall hate the whore and burn her with fire…
 
16And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
 
By the way, Peter said we ought to obey God rather than men.  
 
Recap:
 
  • The state has outsourced your labor and finances,
  • The Church is legally joined to the state that created her,
  • The Church has outsourced her Truth to a myriad of Replacement, Preterist, Two-House Twist, Rapture, Sacred Name, Dispensational liars who spread their heresies all under the guise of a non-profit (non-prophet) status. And the sad part that all these “mainstream” Churches do not take into account all the “quote un quote” Christian cults that are considered unorthodox (irony of ironies). 
 
Again, the “church” is a called-out assembly and not the monstrosity that John marveled at in the book of Revelation which again, we are called to come out of.
 
How in the world can anyone even think or imagine that these things are random occurrences, or chance encounters, or arbitrary events??? How long will we say or do nothing and remain in a collective stupor? There will be a reckoning that will go on in the world and the Church.
 
Reckoning = A settlement of accounts i.e. a day of reckoning.  
 
The below passage from Isaiah is very prophetic and at the same time very reassuring for what the Lord has for us. On one hand it is an indictment on the “multitude” and a partial love letter to “the remnant elect”. If you have your spiritual eyeglasses on; the metaphors are all over the place.
 
Isaiah 65
 
 1I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
 
 2I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
 
 3A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;
 
 4Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
 
 5Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.
 
 6Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
 
 7Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
 
 8Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
 
 9And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
 
 10And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
 
 11But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.
 
 12Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
 
 13Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
 
 14Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
 
 15And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:
 
 16That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
 
 17For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
 
 18But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
 
 19And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
 
 20There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.
 
 21And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
 
 22They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
 
 23They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
 
 24And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
 
 25The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
 
As a watchman, it’s my duty to help build up the body of Christ and keep watch over the night horizon when most people sleep…
 
There’s a few of us out there doing this as well. But not many.
 
Are you watching also?
