Pastor Chuck Baldwin: Is The Handwriting On The Wall For America?

chuckbaldwinlive.com/subscribe.php

Well according to Chuck, Ron Paul is still going on. I also seen him on
the news the other night still campaigning. Wherever I heard that he
dropped out must’ve been a deliberate lie. There is so much
misinformation that it is hard to know what is going on. I am all for
what Chuck said in this even though I seriously doubt that it will
happen. If most people go by these talk shows then there is no hope for
a third party because they are all against it, including Michael Savage,
which proves that he is just another lying pro-establishment neocon and
not an independent as he claims to be. This fool brags about being able
to have the influence of swaying the vote however he wants even though
he himself admitted that all the candidates are frauds and he will not
acknowledge third party efforts. So what is his point then? He is an
idiotic crackpot like all the rest. It is talk radio that is fueling all
this neocon hypocrisy and idolatry. Jesus is coming back to put an end
to this americanism idolatry and corruption. If this country is so godly
then why are all the wicked ruling it, from corrupt corporations to
corrupt politicians to corrupt churches? The bible says that all of this
world will pass away and ALL things will be made new. When Jesus returns
there will be no America or any other country but that of Israel. JESUS
WILL RULE SUPREME AND THOSE WHO DO NOT LIKE IT WILL LITERALLY GO TO HELL. THOSE WHO WORSHIP AMERICA DO NOT KNOW GOD. THOSE WHO TURN A BLIND EYE TO EVIL AND CORRUPTION ARE IMPOSTERS DOOMED TO ETERNAL DESTRUCTION. ALL THOSE WHO HATE ISRAEL ARE DAMNED. GOD WILL PURGE ALL THAT IS UNHOLY AND TAINTED BY SIN WITH FIRE. FROM A COUNTRY THAT SLAUGHTERS ITS OWN UNBORN YOU KNOW IT WILL NOT ESCAPE THE JUSTICE OF GOD. THERE WILL MOST CERTAINLY BE CONSEQUENCES FOR ALL THIS COUNTRY’S WICKEDNESS FOR GOD IS
NOT MOCKED, YOU WILL REAP WHAT YOU SOW. GOD HAS BEEN VERY MERCIFUL BUT HIS PATIENCE WILL RUN OUT. HYPOCRITES DELIBERATELY TRY HIS PATIENCE. I AM SO EAGER FOR JESUS’ RETURN. THOSE WHO ARE SATISFIED WITH THIS CORRUPT WORLD ARE NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO HIS KINGDOM AND SO WILL NOT BE A PART OF IT AND WILL SUFFER. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT THEN TAKE IT UP WITH GOD BECAUSE HE CLEARLY SPELLS ALL THIS OUT IN HIS WORD. JESUS SAID THOSE WHO LOVE THIS WORLD THE LOVE OF THE FATHER IS NOT IN THEM. THAT RIGHT THERE MAKES IT PRETTY CLEAR WHO IS FOR REAL FROM THE FALSE. NO DOUBT THOSE RICH PREACHERS ARE IN LOVE WITH THIS WORLD. WE KNOW WHERE
THERE LOYALTY LIES, “THE BOTTOM LINE.” YOU CAN’T SERVE GOD AND MONEY.

“In the same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over
against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king’s
palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.” Daniel 5:5 (KJV)

“And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL,
UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath
numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the
balances, and art found wanting. PERES; Thy kingdom is divided.”
Daniel 5:26-28 (KJV)

Secularists will not admit it, but nations rise and fall at the
pleasure of Almighty God. America’s founders certainly understood this
fact. Even Benjamin Franklin, who was one of the least spiritual of
America’s Founding Fathers, told the delegates at the constitutional
convention, “We have been assured, Sir, in the sacred writings, that
‘Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.’
I firmly believe this; and I also believe that without His concurring
aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the
Builders of Babel.”

Our first and greatest President, George Washington, agreed with
Franklin. He said, “No People can be bound to acknowledge and adore
the invisible hand which conducts the Affairs of men more than the
People of the United States.”

Thomas Jefferson, too, believed that nations rose and fell before God.
He said, “And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we
have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the
people that these liberties are of the Gift of God? That they are not
to be violated but with his wrath?”

The sentiments expressed by Franklin, Washington, and Jefferson were
expressed almost universally by America’s founders. From the founding
of these United States and throughout most of our history, people
(even our leaders) understood that “God governs in the affairs of men”
(Franklin). We understood that it was not so much our military might,
industrial strength, or financial stability, but divine blessing that
secured our liberty. We believed that scriptural injunction, “The
horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the
LORD.” Proverbs 21:31 (KJV) However, it appears obvious that most
Americans (including Christians), and especially most of our political
leaders, have forgotten this principle.

As a result, many of us are asking the question, Is the handwriting on
the wall for America? Have our days been numbered by God? Is our
republic finished? Will God divide and conquer our country? Many are
suggesting that the signs indicate the answer is yes.

For one thing, we have a federal government that is totally out of
control. The checks and balances that were built into our Constitution
have been all but eviscerated. For the most part, the people have no
real input into their governance anymore. Between Big Media, Big
Business, and vote fraud, even honest and fair elections may be a
thing of the past.

The American people cannot trust their government spokesmen–or the
media that is entrusted with the task of keeping them honest–to tell
them the truth. The dishonesty and duplicity of our political and
business leaders have produced an almost universal distrust among the
American people. We have been lied to so often that it is hard to
remember when we were last told the truth by almost anyone in
Washington, D.C., especially at the Executive level.

We have been lied to about the Kennedy assassination, the USS Liberty,
Waco, 9/11, the war in Iraq, the Oklahoma City bombing, and virtually
every other major American tragedy. It is to the point that we cannot
believe ANYTHING that this government–and its toadies in the
media–tells us. Even our Christian leaders have bought into this
deception.

Either wittingly or unwittingly, our Christian leaders are party to
deceiving the American people. For example, not only do they refuse to
do any serious investigation into the shenanigans of the Bush
administration, they refuse to even listen to the factual
investigations that have been done. Willful ignorance has destroyed
the Church in America today.

Just look how our illustrious Christian leaders are beginning to
coalesce around the corrupt candidacy of John McCain (as if a McCain
Presidency would be any better than a Democratic one).

Remember, it was Senator John McCain who single-handedly shut down the
investigation and effort to bring home American POWs from Vietnam and
surrounding countries. Why would a former POW do such a thing, unless,
as reported by other Vietnam Vets who are in the know, it was to keep
those POWs from coming home and testifying to McCain’s collaboration
with his communist captors?

Remember, it is Senator John McCain who is committed to granting
amnesty to tens of millions of illegal aliens. It is John McCain who
has an F- grade from the Gun Owners of America for his miserable
anti-Second Amendment voting record in the U.S. Senate. It is John
McCain who was the ringleader of the infamous (not to mention
unethical) Keating Five, who cost America taxpayers more than $160
billion.

As a longstanding member of the globalist Council on Foreign Relations
(CFR), John McCain will most definitely support the march toward a
North American Union, the NAFTA superhighway, and the creation of a
North American currency, called the AMERO. He will also pursue George
W. Bush’s neocon policy of empire building and preemptive war. As Pat
Buchanan said, “John McCain will make Dick Cheney look like Gandhi.”

(I encourage readers to take a look at my previous exposé on John
McCain at:

Add to the above the collaboration between Big Business and Big
Government in a continual, covert conspiracy to spy on the American
people. See how our government is selling America’s financial
interests–not to mention our security interests–to foreign powers.
Good grief! Our government is even selling our own infrastructure to
foreign powers.

Notice, too, how those who refuse to go along with this New World
Order are treated by the political and media establishments. See how
they virtually ignored Duncan Hunter, Alan Keyes, and Tom Tancredo.
Even the liberal Democrat, Dennis Kucinich, was ignored and lampooned,
because he dared to question the globalist agenda of the elites in
Washington, D.C., and New York City. See, especially, how they
demonized Congressman Ron Paul. As Dr. Paul’s campaign grew, so did
the attacks against him from the media and political elites. Even
Christian leaders opposed him.

I was one of only a handful of Christian ministers with any kind of a
national following who publicly endorsed Ron Paul. Where was John
Hagee? Where was Pat Robertson? Where was James Dobson? Where was Tony
Perkins? They were all supporting establishment neocons Mitt Romney,
Mike Huckabee, John McCain, or even Rudy Giuliani.

I continue to support Ron Paul, although I believe the only way he can
effectively bring his revolution to the forefront of America is to
seek the Presidency via a third party ticket. I, therefore, strongly
urge Dr. Paul to continue his Presidential campaign by obtaining the
nomination of the Constitution Party. (It is his for the taking,
should he pursue it.) The Republican Party is too corrupt, too
sympathetic to New World Order ideologues to allow principled patriots
such as Ron Paul to obtain the nomination. In fact, a John McCain
administration will finish whatever semblance of conservatism yet
remains in the GOP. McCain’s nomination makes it all the more
imperative that we break the two-party death grip that is choking the
life out of America. If Ron Paul would take the bull by the horns
right now and run as a third party candidate, he just might be the man
who could do it. Otherwise, it is just another sign that the
handwriting is already on the wall.

Of course, America’s pastors and churches are in the unique position
of being able to lead our people to a revival of honesty and
integrity. Yes, they have the power to restore Biblical principles and
constitutional government to America’s public life. However, it would
first require that they step away from their own infatuation and
preoccupation with money and power long enough to see the handwriting
themselves. That they refuse to do so is another sign that the
handwriting is already on the wall.

One does not have to possess the gift of prophecy to read the signs.
The handwriting is there as plain as day in letters large enough that
even a blind man can read them.

Christians should not bury their heads in their theology books,
however. Instead of wringing their hands and simply waiting for Jesus
to return, we need to get in the fight to restore our constitutional
republic. The foundation is still there; and millions of
people–churched and unchurched–are ready and willing to fight with
us. Plus, who can tell what God will do with a serious effort to
restore liberty and independence in this land?

As Patrick Henry said during our initial struggle for independence,
“[W]e shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who
presides over the destinies of Nations, and who will raise up friends
to fight our battles for us. The battle, Sir, is not to the strong
alone. It is to the vigilant, the active, the brave.”

Is the handwriting on the wall for America? Yes it is. But that does
not mean there is nothing we can do. We can do everything we should
do, knowing that there is a God in Heaven who “presides over the
destinies of Nations.” The fact is, the friends of liberty Patrick
Henry spoke of may be found in the most unlikely places and faces. So
be it. We are not trying to build a Sunday School class; we are trying
to preserve our constitutional republic.

In so doing, we need political leaders such as Ron Paul, spiritual
leaders such as Pastors Tony Romo and James Riddle (for my list of
“Black Regiment” pastors, go here:
http://www.chuckbaldwinlive.com/blackregiment.php ), educators such as
David Alan Black and Steven Yates, business leaders such as Frank
Fluckiger and William H. Ball, Jr., attorneys such as Edwin Vieira,
Jr., and Herb Titus, journalists and writers such as Jerome Corsi and
John McManus, film makers such as Ron Maxwell, and everyday patriots
such as you and me.

Besides, God may think it is time to divide the kingdom out of the
hands of the globalist elitists and place it back where it belongs:
with “We the people.” What say you?
