Christians as Aliens in this World

So What if we're in the End Times?
By Anthony C. LoBaido

It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn your
statutes. The Law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of coins of
gold and silver.” — Psalm 119:71

As the world moves farther away from God, Christians, Orthodox Jews and
Muslims will no doubt have to feel themselves moving farther away from the
world, or else they too will be drifting further away from God along with
“the world.” Remnant believers will no doubt continue to ask themselves
questions about the so called End Times, and if indeed there is a being
called Satan who is “The King of this world,” and, whose many demons are
busy making mischief on planet Earth.

The gulf between the “lost” and the “saved” has never been wider. On one
side is world government, possible a cashless society with a microchip in
your hand, drugs, abortion, pornography, divorce, lust, fleshly
temptations, debt, consumerism and the belief that man is his own God.
Along the narrow path is the trail that leaves the “saved” as outcasts
from this sick society. It can be a lonely walk.

The Gospels says that Christians “are aliens in this world.” When you look
around at the facial peircings, tattoos, gang clothes, foul mouthed and
rude youth, do you ever believe that the Mickey Mouse Club and 1950's
values are coming back to American life?

We see the masses in America and the West are distracted. There is a huge
appetite for greedy gains in the stock market, sex, lewd sports like the
new XFL, pornography, adultery, alcohol, drugs, blood, violence,
witchcraft, abortion, the occult, Harry Potter books, new age movement and
Eastern religions. The RU-486 spontaneous abortion pill may soon be
available in all American public schools. This drug, called mifepristone
and has caused women to bleed to death.

God is out of the American public school classroom and RU-486 and condoms
are in. Where is the outcry from American Christians. Survey after survey
says that over 80 percent of Americans are Christians yet they have far
less power than the gay rights movement.

It seems society has gone crazy. A few years ago a Haitian immigrant named
Colin Ferguson got on the Long Island Rail Road and shot 20 some odd white
fathers. The response? A liberal ban on law abiding citizens to carry guns
needed to protect themselves from these such animals.

What about Susan Smith, who drowned her children? What about Mark Barton,
the day stock trader who killed his children with hammers after a hard day
at the office. And what about Winny Mandela, Aristide and O.J. Simpson for
that matter? If there is a Satan, he demands human sacrifice, and we are
certainly giving that to him. And not only in places like Rwanda or the
Balkans. We are fars approaching 40 million abortions in America since
1973. That is almost have the population of the U.S. at the start of World
War I. That's a lot of blood to pollute the land.

Can we pray against these things? James 5:16 says “The prayer of a
righteous man avails much.” When Bill Gates gave a speech in a Seattle
Hotel not long ago, an earthquake hit the city and Gates was almost hit by
falling debris. It is interesting to note that Gates is a major
contributor to global abortion programs run by the United Nations.
Incidentally the amazingly peaceful U.N. is the single greatest killer of
unborn babies in human history. Truly Christians in America as the last
battalion holding back the horrors of World Government under the United
Nations. Thank God we have our guns. But as Mike and the Mechanics sang
in their hit song “Silent Running”
“there's a gun and ammunition just inside the doorway…use them only in
emergency” better we should “pray to God, the Father and the Spirit, to
guide you and protect you from up here.”

Consider the moral decline that has gripped America since the Clinton
regime took power in America in 1993. Remember when President Bush Sr.
objected to The Simpsons cartoon? Now we have gone on to Beavis and
Butthead and now into South Park. South Park features children eating
human waste on their Christmas dinner and Saddam having gay sex in hell
with Satan. Jesus Christ is depicted as a Jerry Springer-like talk show
host spouting four letter words. President Bush Jr., unlike his father,
offers no rebuke of the debased culture and what it does to our children.
Make no mistake, children as well as adults are eating up South Park.

The homosexuals have taken over the entertainment industry. Top actors
like Matt Damon, Antonio Banderas, Neve Campbell and even John Goodman
must take on “gay” roles to pay their toll for career success to the
Sodomites. Now the North American Man Boy Love Association is represented
by the ACLU in their drive to take over the Boy Scouts. They even meet in
publicly funded libraries in San Francisco.

But this is all okay in the eyes of the new elite in the post-Christian
world. There is a dark illumination which tells us that all these evils –
from pornography to abortion to drugs to Marxism are find and dandy.
Remember what Christ said, “If the light in thine eye be darkness, how
great is that darkness.”

In the political realm, the Republicans have been exposed as a globalist,
trade-crazed sham. Colin Powell recently inked trade deals with Laos and
Vietnam, who are busy killing Christians on a daily basis in their
communist paradise. Newt and his boys single handedly destroyed the 1994
Republican backlash against Clinton and his Marxist agenda. Remember when
Newt called Clinton, “The enemy of all normal Americans?”

Well, Bill Clinton went on to arm Communist China with America's high
tech, missile, computer and nuclear secrets. He put communists in power
everywhere from South Africa to Haiti. He toasted the North Korean
dictator, Winny Mandela, Arafat, Yeltsin and every other blood stained
communist he could get his hands on. Americans were too preoccupied with
the McGwire-Sosa home run derby to care.

Americans live in a nation that is filled with lust, violence,
pornography, Aids, crack, divorce, abortion – even at nine months, gangs,
guns, school shootings, filthy tv shows, illiteracy and debt. The suburbs
are fat and soft. The cities are filled with angry minorities who are
rapidly becoming a very race conscious majority. Killing of whites in the
L.A. riots, Seattle riots, Wichita Killings and most recently in
Cincinnati have become commonplace and even politically correct. Islam is
growing rapidly in America. Mexican illegals are calling for the return of
the Southwest to Mexico as an independent state.

Cloning and organ harvesting are already with us. So is slave labor, which
makes our cheap goods which we import from Communist China. Catholic
priests living in hellish gulags and work camps make our Christmas toys,
along with persecuted Chinese Christians and political dissidents. These
goods fuel the Chinese military complex which will one day kill the
children opening those presents in the next great World War.

“Merry Christmas everybody!”

Lets fact facts, only the worst kind of delusional idiot could fail to see
that America is in big trouble. Sure we have money and technology, but
like Rome, the fabric of our nation is dying. No society which allowed the
Sodomites to control the culture ever survived: just ask the Romans and
Greeks.

The Christian churches in America are in decline with statistics showing
that most pastors are despondent and seeking to leave their calling. The
Catholic Church, the bastion of Christian Civilization for two millennia
is also being ripped apart by liberal doctrine. The vast majority of
Catholics voted for both Bill and Hillary Clinton in recent elections,
despite the Church's teaching on abortion and sodomy.

And now that the stock market has crashed and massive layoffs are
appearing, how will Americans respond that the party thrown by the Federal
Reserve is finally over?

Cry of a Lonely Planet

The letters are pouring in from the four corners of the Earth to this
writer. There is great concern that our world is teetering out of control.

One woman, writing from the Caribbean says, “With all the turmoil in the
world today, I think that God is trying to tell us something. Man has
become so materialistic that he has forgotten spirituality and the
importance of the Creator in his life. The devil and his demons are
stealthily creeping into our societies and are taking over our lives. I
would not be surprised if the internet does not collapse in the near
future and many people lose their money and jobs. St. Maarten/St. Martin
(37 Sq. miles) was once a sleeping village but now it is a shopping mecca
in the Caribbean with over 10 casinos and 300 restaurants. Maybe you can
write about the hurricanes and what God is trying to tell us, or you can
write about the vulnerability of the Caribbean islands against the drug
dealers of Latin America.”

An American reader who read my article on the stone city of Petra and its
possible place in End Times prophecy wrote; “I am learning a lot about
current events throughout the world. Wanted to know if Jordan or Israel
would be countries safe to live there. I understand that there is a large
Suni Moslem population in Jordan.. Do they like Americans, in particular,
Christian? I do not want to be here when Russia attacks so where do you
think would be safe (iPetra)? Please get back to me ASAP.” An Orthodox
Rabbi wrote: “Liberal Jews are seen, rightly or wrongly as manipulating
banks, like Marc Rich, manipulating the Media, Hollywood, immigration,
State Department, Law Schools, culture ect. How can Orthodox Jews have
more cultural power?” Strangly, the Orthodox and secular Jews are
motivated by the same thing–fear. The Orthodox Jews, whose line to the
past keys them into reality, not dreams, knows that if we open our mouths
we will get it shut. The other Jews, whose philosophy is that a secular
would will save them, haven’t got this insight, and believe that they can
rant and rave the world to a better level and it will stop hating them.
Thus, both types of Jews are motivated by fear, and when Hitler comes, he
doesn’t care to discern between the two camps. The question I have: is it
a good idea for a Jew to write bad things about secular Jews, or will that
just make things worse? Rabbi Levin, of course, put Senator Lieberman in
the ban, and perhaps this made things better, I don’t know. I wish I had
confidence to walk into the minefield. We Jews, after all, are a remnant
of our once spiritual ancestors, the survivors of Stalin, Hitler and
unrelenting secularism, universal hate, and who knows what else. Blaming
is a problem for such people, on the other hand, silence just makes things
worse?” The Rabbi wrote a second letter which said, “African Christians in
Sudan are sold as slaves by the Muslims. Nobody cares. Secondly, I’m not
so sure that the white Europeans think like you and I do. Blair is
revamping England, France is finished, Germany is “progressive,” and the
main problem is no longer whether to be traditional, Victorial,
Conservative, etc. but whether to fight immigration by being with Haider
or worse, or fighting these tendencies by being pro-gay and utterly
secular. There is no middle ground. The fault is those of us who have not
produced the ideology of the middle. In its absence, the right will always
produce a left that hates us, and since the right means Hitler, the left
will remain in power. There is no hope until the Anthony LoBaido’s of the
world do their thing. The problem is, that all right-wing material is
negative. He offers nothing but negatives. The left offers love, peace,
harmony and self-esteem. The right, burps money and farce. There is
nothing positive on the right. [These days] religion is surely unstable,
and cannot fight the secular fanatics, and cannot even represent itself.
On the one hand, I am content to let the world cook, rather than have a
Jew open his mouth, on the other hand, there are many people out there who
don’t have a religion from Sinai and G*d, and are fed up with the
prophet-on-demand variety. That religious weakening, is the major problem.
Transcendence has passed from the struggling religions into the hands of
the ‘solidly convinced' seculars.” An interesting letter from a college
student in Texas, “Dear Mr. LoBaido, I am sad today because I know that if
we don’t change the hearts of our young people there is no future for
this country. I organize a Bible study for high school girls here in
Texas. I spent 5 hours today with 5 young ladies and the things they told
me were heartbreaking. There is a “club” at the High School in [Central
Texas] that started a few years ago, a group of boys that call themselves
FAB (F**k All B*tches) There goal is to have sex with as many girls as
possible. Get this though, some girls even WANT to be on their list! This
is High School mind you. 15 and 16 year old boys and girls. Now there is a
girls version of this club. Same goal. What is so sad is that they WANT
people to know who and when and how etc. Some of these girls even give lip
service in the parking lot at school! And I am NOT talking about kissing.
How can this be allowed to happen at school? This year there were 12 girls
pregnant at the HS here, out of a class of 200. If you include the guys
that got them that way that is over 10% pregnant. How can we blame them
only when every movie for teenagers that comes out of Hollywood is sex.
American Pie, even TV shows like Dawsons Creek. Just pick up a teen
magazine like Seventeen, you will be shocked.”

A secretary in New York wrote: “People are filled with such false pride
about their accomplishments. What does life mean if it is only about
eating at McDonalds and watching sports on tv. I believe that the world is
facing big problems, but there is also the change for the remnant to move
out of the comfort zone in their own lives and help the needy in places
like Burma and Sudan. If only Christians would stand up and retake control
of the media, culture, State Department, Wall Street, Madison Avenue,
Treasury, U.N. and Hollywood, then the world would not seem so out of
control. We need a beachhead of goodness from which to launch the war
against the Antichrist forces which have almost completely taken over the
world.” This letter came from a young lady in Nebraska “Think I would love
to see an article written about the difference between what God values and
what man values. I recently contacted a friend of mine who informed me
that I was (96)`brainwashed' and a (96)`religious zealot' and (96)`crazy' all because
I dropped out of RN school a few years ago to warn America about judgment,
second coming of Christ, cold war lie, underground church etc. And in so
doing, didn’t bow to the gods of education, marriage (which is a god for
many people), money (American style) etc. (Not anything new, to the pagan
mind, the followers of Jesus have ALWAYS been labeled this). There is an
incredible double standard here, found everywhere, regardless if they are
“Christians” or not. The ways of Jesus are foreign-literally. I work in
nursing homes all over Nebraska as a CNA. Many of the elderly in these
homes have been forgotten-they are not valued anymore, and it is a stark
contrast between what I see there and what my friend believes life is
about. When I meet this type of thinking over and over again from friends
and family-I get angered. My first thought is “All it would take is an
accident, and then YOU would be the quadriplegic, and then all those
things that you have put your time and money and hopes in would disappear
overnight, and then what? Building your life on sand MOST things cannot be
learned at college. Indeed, if things are easy and smooth for you as a
human, then you should be worried. If I am not making the RIGHT kind of
enemies at this time in world history, what am I doing sucking air?” ”

Christians 2001 A.D.

Having passed into the Third Millenium of Christianity, where do
Christians (lets add Orthodox Jews and Sunni Muslims to the equations,
believers in the monotheistic God) stand in the world in modern times? We
can make a few assumptions. First, the Anglophile nations of the world,
Australia, New Zealand, the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Europe and to a lesser
degree South Africa have all entered the post-Christian era. We in the
U.S. and Europe have turned our back on Christian civilization. In Holland
for example, it is now legal for a 12 year old to get assisted suicide for
“depression.”

Where did the decline in faith begin in the West? Was in the American
spirit of the ‘Independent Cowboy?' What about the growth in power of the
Federal government after the end of the Civil War? Was it the farm boys
going to the Gay Paris to party with French whores during World War I? The
Roaring 1920's? Playing sports on the Sabbath Day? Or was it the free sex
and drugs of the Flower Children of the 1960's? Who can say for sure?

According to the World Christian Encyclopedia, in 1900 A.D. there were 490
million Christians in the world and only three million atheists. In 1999,
there were 1.6 billion Christians on earth, but also 1.5 billion atheists.
Sure there are a lot more Christians, but look at the decline in belief in
the Creator God – the Bible predicted that this decline would come. Some
call it “the great falling away.”

Denying the Creator is a sign of depraved society. We believe now that men
evolved from apes, that the order of life on earth is the subject of
random chance and that the countless species on earth all came from ONE
cell. Yet the shark and crocodile are unchanged for millions of years.
Where is the evolution? Where is the dog becoming a cat? This issue let
this writer to engage in a trek to Eastern Turkey in search of Noah's Ark.
I still believe the Ark of Noah is a key to restoring faith in the
post-Christian era. Regardless of where one stands on the issues of when
the West entered the post-Christian era, the fact remains is that we in
America and the Western world are in it. The nexus of Christianity has
been transferred to Latin America, Communist China and black Sub-Saharan
Africa. Persecution of Christians is a staple in life in places like
Sudan, Indonesia, India, the Middle East, Angola, China and many other
nations. Mainly the Western world sits back and does nothing.

The French Foreign Legion was sent only recently to rescue a road rally
race team in Chad, but does nothing to help the Christians suffering in
Rwanda or Sudan. France, once the country of Joan of Arc, did nothing to
help her former colony of Cambodia fight off Pol Pot's Killing Fields.
They did nothing for the poor Hmong Christians of Laos either. Laos was
also part of French Indochina – the destination of choice for Legionnaires
during good times. When the French Legion was driven out of Dien Bien Phu
in Vietnam, it marked the beginning of a half century of Communist
genocide on Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia that still continues to this day.
Imagine if France still had Christian leaders in power. Imagine the lives
that could have been saved. Imagine the structure and order that would be
in place in Rwanda, Cameroon, North Africa and Southeast Asia.

While Christians are waking up to the fact that there is no nation, flag,
king or army left on Earth to give our allegiance too, (the forces of
Antichrist have all but conquered the world – name one nation with a
Christian, anti-globalist ruler) there is still a great choice to be made.

No matter how evil the world or our own lives and sins become, the choice
to serve God, Christ, his angels and secure our place in eternity is only
ONE decision away. Christ says in John 10:10, “The thief comes to steal,
kill and destroy, but I have come that you may have abundant life.” We can
walk closer with God but spending quiet moments alone with him, developing
and awareness of His presence and a spirit of obedience to His will and
Word.

The remnant has, by the grace of God been called out of the Satanic vortex
of this present age. An age when evil is called good and good is called
evil. We must also recognize that we can never fit into society in this
present age without giving up the special things we have in our
relationship with God. Surely these are secret things. Psalm 31: 19-20
tells us, ‘How great is Thy goodness, which Thou hast stored up for those
who fear Thee. Which Thou hast wrong for those who take refuge in Thee.
Thou dost hide them in the secret place of Thy presence from the
conspiracies of man.' Isaiah 30:21 promises believers; ‘And thine ears
shall hear a word behind thee, saying ‘This is the way, walk ye in it,
when ye turn tot he right hand, and when ye turn to the left.” And
Jeremiah 29:11-13 tells us, “I alone know the plans I have for you. Plans
to bring you prosperity and not disaster. Plans to bring about the future
that you hope for.”

Yes, the world will still offer its temptations. Recall the Gospel of
Luke, which in Chapter 4:5-6 says “And the devil, taking him up into a
high mountain, showed Jesus all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of
time. And the devil said unto him, (96)`All this power will I give thee, and
the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever will I
give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me all shall be thine.”

But we know from James 4:4 that “To be friend with the world means to be
God's enemy. Whoever wants to be the word's friend makes himself an enemy
of God. John 16:2 tells believers, “If the world hates you, just remember
that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, then the world
would love you as its own. But I chose you from this world, and you do not
belong to it; that is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you;
‘No slave is greater than his master.' If they persecute me, they will
persecute you too.”

We can in the meantime, comfort ourselves with God's promises to the
remnant. As Isaiah 43:2 reads, “When you pass through the waters, I will
be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you
walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; Nor shall the flame scorch
you.”

For the secure remnant believer, there is no fear of the coming chip in
the hand, Mark of the Beast, U.N. World Government, international Space
Station or even nuclear or biological war. This world is passing away.
Everything changes. People come and go, as do friends. Our lives are but a
vapor. Yet one thing remains – our needs for love, security, esteem and a
secure future are all met at the Cross.

Let's never forget that, no matter how our sanity is tested in these new
Dark Ages here on Planet Earth, event if it has or will become the Colony
of the Antichrist.
