WHAT??

May 14, 2015 1:10PM PDT
A poll released Wednesday found 32 per cent of Republican voters believe Obama plans to seize Texas and declare martial law.

When 2,000 employees at five Walmart locations in the U.S. were abruptly informed they were being laid off due to "weird" plumbing issues, it may have fooled the naive and innocent multitudes unaware of the giant plot afoot for Barack Obama's military takeover of the United States.

But wiser heads knew immediately what they were looking at. The closures, they reported on a host of web sites, were needed so the stores could be used as food distribution centres for the Chinese troops being smuggled into the country to assist in the takeover. The Chinese would be operating by a special top secret invitation from Michelle Obama, the First Lady, who was in on the plot. Soon after, the dollar would be jettisoned and the Chinese currency would take its place. If proof was needed, all you had to do was note the location of the Walmarts Florida, Texas, California and Oklahoma - all of which are in or near states where an intensive U.S. military operation is scheduled this summer.

Look how many believed Obama would end out of control government spending, create a new era of government openness and end both cronyism and special interest influence in his political decisions. The broken promise list is a long one but look how many he fooled.

When you researched how the poll was done, what did you find? What questions were asked? How many people were polled (8 of 25=32%)? How was the poll conducted? etc, etc. You did verify that the poll was properly done, did you not? It's the naive that don't do that. Politicians make a living off of naivety.

Colossians 2:8
See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.


2 Timothy 3:13
While evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.


2 Thessalonians 2:10-11
And with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false,


Romans 16:17-18
I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.

Ephesians 5:6
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

Revelation 12:9
And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

Psalms 1:1
May 20, 2015 5:34AM PDT

Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

2 Timothy 3:1-5
But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.

I'm having a terrible day
May 20, 2015 6:02AM PDT

Watching one of my favourite shows....A lady had been parking her motor home on a city street...the town council had notified her that she had to move it....she protested and was planning on barricading it so they couldn't move it.....while she was out of the motor home..they came an towed it away....A friend of hers came and told her about the towing....they all go running out to try and stop them from towing it....they bump into the gay preacher...and he asks "What's going on?" ....She replies....Mathew 8:20...

The preacher says"Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head."

Which means Marys motor home has been towed.

Scripture...I can't escape it today.
