I thought this was good to pass on, and I’ve added my own thoughts to it:
PROJECT FEAR HAS TOTALLY OVERTAKEN THE WORLD LEADERS AND IT IS SUCH A DESTRUCTIVE (DE-)MOTIVATOR. The antidote to fear is faith – or hope – as King David alone had faith in his God when all of Saul’s armies were quaking in their boots in fear of Goliath. Of course this virus is dangerous but promoting fear is not the way to tackle it. President Trump at least now seems to be the only world leader promoting some kind of cautious ‘hope’ with his post about the “anti-malarial and anti-arthritis” drug called chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine which will become immediately available.
Politicians should stop feeding the panic ‘fear-monger’ hype presently going on especially from the media, and tell people to calm down. They should instead stress healthy eating to build up the immune health which will itself combat the Coronavirus.
President Trump with his hopeful outlook in trying to calm people. He is also quite right on insisting that the virus has a Chinese origin. It obviously does. It might be kinder to the suffering Chinese people, however, to specify and not call it the Chinese virus but rather their ‘leaders’ virus.’ Their leading cartel is the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) so it should be specified as the ‘CCP virus.’ We should refresh our memories that Communism wants to own ‘all means of production’ which they see as being in ‘capitalist hands,’ and abolish ‘private ownership’ and ‘private enterprise’ in exchange for installing a ‘state socialist’ system. It wants to destroy healthy trading ‘capitalism of the free world’ which gives independence to individuals. Communism wants total state control. Their maxim is: individual liberty MUST be sacrificed on the altar of ‘the greater good of the majority’ whom, of course, they, the CCP, claim they represent.
In other words, a few ‘elite’ people at the top want total control over the masses. We see the Democrat party continually at work to take control over Americans with BIG GOVERNMENT, which is nothing less than ‘socialism,’ working its way to ‘soft-socialism’ which automatically leads into full-blown ‘communism.’ And sadly, most of these socialist politicians running for the presidency don’t even see where it will take us, being so blind and deceived. And yet, there are a few who do see and do want all-out communism, such as Bernie Sanders who has great respect for communism and who has convinced the young that America’s ‘capitalism’ is threatening and all together evil. Here we see what our Lord warned us of in the last days, that evil would be seen as good, and good seen as evil.
Unfortunately, over the last 100+ years the ‘free world’ has been so disastrously subverted by ‘soft socialism’ at all levels – and most especially at media level – that there are plenty of internal sympathizers who would welcome the success of such an offensive. So we need to keep speaking the truth to combat the lies. The economies of the ‘free world’ are going to be badly trounced if SWIFT HOPEFUL action is not taken – perhaps irrevocably by this panic-alarm reaction.
This day calls for true wisdom! “
“We speak a message of wisdom among those who are established in godly wisdom. We do not use the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we declare GOD’S wisdom…. THIS is what we speak, not in words taught us by ‘human’ wisdom (worldly wisdom) but in words taught by the Holy Spirit, explaining spiritual realities.” 1 Corinthians 2
Spiritual realities: things at work that are UNseen, and for most UNknown, because to ‘see and know’ what is really happening and what is altogether true – comes only by the revelation and teachings of God’s Spirit and Word. There are “spiritual realities” of the evil works of Satan (the demonic) that people don’t see or understand when a personal or national crisis hits, when something is troubling them requiring a decision or action to be taken; they don’t see or understand the devil’s evil works that are against them and not for their good at all. They are also unable to see that which is ‘good from God’ for them and for man’s future existence. Neither can they see, nor understand what God is doing to save them from the dark powers at work in our world, nor can they understand how faith in Jesus Christ can save them, and prevent them from going the way of the world that follows the “god of this world,” a.k.a Satan.
“For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight.” 1 Corinthians 3:19
“The wise understand where they are going, but fools deceive themselves.” Proverbs 14:8
