Quick post, 10.2.15

Given what I've read about Revelation, questions arise as to what our government should be doing today.  Not only our government, but what should Christians do?

For example, the Constitution is being nullified, in case you haven't noticed.  At what point do you rebel?  Ever?  This is what I asked in the previous post.  What influence has the interpretation (s) of Revelation of the New Testament had upon people?  If so, should it be considered good or bad?

One thing I have always said that if you give up your guns, your ability to resist what the government is doing has been greatly compromised.  The government seeks the people's guns because they do not trust the people and want to dominate and control the people.  But it is supposed to be the other way around, as Ronald Reagan once noted.   "We the People" tell the government what it can do, but the left wing wants it to be otherwise.

Therefore, any calls like this that Obama is making should be considered as extremely suspicious.  What exactly should be done about this if it begins to take place?

I have suggested a Con-Con.  An Article V convention.  But it is being resisted by so-called conservatives.  Do you really think the left is going to stop encroaching upon what's remains of the Constitution?  This is a legal and hard to resist way of dealing with the challenge coming from the left.  But it is dangerous, of course.  So called conservatives fear the prospect of a runaway convention that may do just about anything.

But there may not be any good alternatives available.
