People have the stangest notions.

The other day, on someone's blog, I noticed someone purporting to be a Christian (not sure if Catholic, literally) suggesting that God was going to fix the world, if we just hold the faith.  I about died.  I put a comment in, suggestion God will do no such thing.

What about "This is not my kingdom", does anyone not get.  In the end, after many tribulations, Christ may rule here for a while.  The end times are very uncertain things.  But that will be just... what... closing up shop?  And, only after trials and tribulations which will see most Christians broken or murdered.  The last army of Christ will be remnants of men who were fallen but called and came to Him.  They won't be great Christians who survived, in good will, and turned into an army.  Christians will know what the Jews knew, in Germany.  Heck, they are setting up their demise, here and there, as I write.  If that type will succeed, only God knows.  It might be on His schedule, but it is ultimately left to man to decide when death for the many, most, is at hand.

Believe or not, the greatest evil isn't being done by non-believers, atheists.  It is being done by the churches and men of them.  I am not sure if it is an attempt to bring about the return of Christ, but it is a Judas thing.  They know what they are doing, and mean it.

God is not going to show up and set things right.  If I don't, if you don't, if we don't ignore, resist, live right lives, etc... but even that will not spare us when the time comes.  A martyr, an exile, with nothing, perhaps in our own lands?  This is what will happening.  It is what is being planned, implemented.

But, too, as I said?  Do not let these things concern you.  Pray, unrelentingly.  Pray devoutly.  Live as a saint.  Do not worry.  Live or die for God, without much else being of concern.  Even in torture, look to God.  I am not telling you anything I don't know, do.  I live, at His command.  In spite of decades of physical tortures, hatred poured on my head for any and no reason, and a feeble body which looks strong but is just a shadow.  I don't ask, or suggest, anything I don't, haven't, won't, wouldn't endure.  But don't think God is going to fix Biden, or the current or probably future pope, or... anything.  If you don't fix it, no one will.

I was much more brief.  And, even so, my comment was not allowed to pass.  I... understand.  Most Christians, Catholic or otherwise, aren't ready for even the simple truths.  This world is up to us.  If we fail, no one is going to fix our mess.  Not even so called harsh ones wish to have their weak little friends crushed or bothered with hard truths, I guess.

Can it be fixed?  Can sin be forgiven?  Yes.  But, ultimately, not here.  Amen.
