Joseph R. Biden Jr. is projected to be the 46th president of the United States of America.
Civility and civic service returns with a humble resolution and I predict that the GOP will vomit all over itself trying out apologies for squandering 12 years legitimizing racial bigotry, deceit, and political conflict.
On the evening of November 5th potus45 pretended to be addressing the American people but he simply put his feet firmly in his mouth and attacked the very process he is depending on to protect him for another four years from the mountain of criminal charges that awaits him. Where were the Attorney General and (keep-Mr. PRESIDENT-honest) Vice President when such a cloud of deceit was pouring out of the chief executive?
Pity is due as 45 wriggles and writhes in the grip of the mighty boa of the American voter, and they are who the president should be concerned about. The more he wriggles the tighter the constrictor coils.
The cheering crowd in the roon was not expected to be sober or conscientous. A small cadre seems ever eager to applaud everything 45 says: spin, hype, misdirection, sheer ignorance or malice. Hopes that an experienced person like VP Pence might take a noble stand are nearly dashed, The alliance between Christians and the agenda of the fundamentalist evangelicals and extreme religious groups should have been reviewed and rebuked when 45 came down staircase badmouthing Mexicans and when he called for a ban on Muslim immigration. Gunsmiths are hard to find.
Expecting a corrupt and seriously indebted businessman to act in any principled way is like expecting our robber-shepherds to be either the hammer or the anvil God needs in finding application of His word. Jams are inevitable, but the only way to imagine that they are not accidents is to assume that 45 and his Christian allies are all closet enemies if Christ’s disciples.
Sometimes reality leaps off the pages of the Bible and docks itself in the reader’s mind and agenda. When that happens it is an opportunity for the splendour of the living word to make sense and fill us with wonder at the same time. Simple trust flips everything into the realm of waters in the wilderness and streams in the desert.
They will soar. They will run. They will walk. These are normal activities for birds, for fainting and powerless people. But who wants those labels?
Isaiah 35:5-6 is an eyeopening vista on what is in the works when comfort comes to town (chapter 40). There is a season for extreme intervention. Reality does not pass away because we do not read, do not want to hear or refuse to think soberly about our lives.
This has got to be one of the best-crafted prophecies with Messianic reach. It connects people to the last and greatest prophet. It corners the reader with:
Streams in the desert are bound to start one leaping and the desert is bound to be unattractive.
Three days after the vote the bullying bigoted business bum who thought that law, democracy, public service, patriotism and honour were all trashy jewelry.
To the man who only has a hammer, everything he encounters begins to look like a nail.

My friends who have tried to see the megalomaniac from Mar a Lago as a godsend can now say potusbigotusgloatus45 is a devil’s gift, just like Adolf Hitler.
More lies and deluded megalomaniac incitement from the White House with the nation on the brink of hearing who won the 2020 election finishes just in time to catch FOX at 7pm ET.
We do not want to imagine that there are graduates of top-ranked universities who are rank idiots, complete nincompoops, people who learned little from their discipline, but there are people like Jared Kushner, the Swiss Army Knife of the criminal mob that is the frontline for potus45. While there are increasing numbers of people with degrees we have outstanding and longstanding evidence that the people running governments and large corporations are always going to be the usual witting and unwitting tools of God and the devil, and a parade of graduates.
Why go to school if not to learn? Why call yourself human if you do not revel in our wonderful and diverse solidarity? Why do some of us we call ourselves God’s people when we have no intention of even striving for human honour and integrity?
People like badges and medals and get to wear some whether or not they are earned. I know many people who have been to school, graduated but have no expertise. They ask the same elementary questions that begin most serious inquiries and they support theories that have long ago bit the dust. Men and women with certificates, diplomas, bachelors and masters degrees seem incapable of intelligent discussion of the principal subjects of their discipline.
It matters little what school a person attended. A dunce with a degree shouts loudly the same disgrace as a pastor with a megachurch, as a bigot with a bully pulpit. Surely we see that there are exceptional graduates of every school, women and men who serve with distinction using the expertise of their fields. When the graduate uses his resources for nefarious purposes such as abusing migrants and their children, or the idiot parade may seem to be real and actively aggressive. We hope the phenomenon is rare.
We may never know how many graduates of top-ranked universities are rank idiots, complete nincompoops, religious extremists, grass-trampling pastors and neo-Nazis. Pity!
At 0229 hours on the day after Election Day 2020 the menace in the White House announced to a cheering crowd of family, staff, and sycophants that the election is a fraud and that he would be going to the Supreme court to restore the integrity. His Vice-president on the other hand acknowledged that votes were still being counted. He may yet act responsibly and rebuke the deluded bigot for whom he has done a lot of latrine work. At least the VP acknowledged that votes were being counted.
Election ends with counting not with bratty venting.
This mini show – a rambling demon-inspired nonsense display- came while votes were still being counted in AZ, WI, GA, NC, and PA. It is not surprising that there is criminal intent to block the counting of the many votes that were mailed in (and are still being received) due to the distress of covid19. The statement “read” took less than 30 seconds and was obviously a short list of numbers from selected polls.
The criminal from Mar a Lago does not get to say when counting ends and vote counters should get to take a break somewhere around midnight.
The wild west in United States of America history is a Satanic initiative. It is the natural outcome of poor character, the manifest destiny of thieves and robbers, and the undoing of a vision of Israelite-wannabes. You are so in favour of life that you think that a man can put semen into a woman without her permission and leave her no recourse to expel it and eliminate it’s effect. You think that guns in the hands of as many people as possible makes a nation secure. God does not approve of vigilantism. We condemn taking the law into our own hands from every quarter.
You are in popular but shameful company. People who want to kill innocent children are your heroes. Preachers and prophets who are dumb watchdogs, who have nothing to say to change racist and hateful words and practices (at home and abroad) are your heroes.
Since when does God want his will written on stone? Since when does God turn his administration of justice over to religious leaders? Both the Old Testament and New Testament are witnesses
When Muslims, Christians Jews profess the same readiness to ban, proscribe and execute violators of law who can deny that they are feeding the beast? These three groups love the label people of the book but they only want the notoriety of the designation and will have nothing to do with the central necessity for human life to thrive. Loving one’s neighbour is not a priority.
My observation is that religious and political leaders in 2019 all over the world have Donald Trump written on their foreheads and hands. They do not have the courage to distinguish Peter from James, a Benz from a Ford, God from man, condemnation from grace, or thief from shepherd.
You support the murder of Palestinians, Muslims, Jews and hope that noone notices that the United States and the United Kingdom are destined to betray the cosmopolitan destiny of Jerusalem, the city of God, and pursue their own prostitute’s vision of the world.
You want monuments to the Ten Commandments and you cannot even recognize your death in them. You think you can buy righteousness with your own filthy deeds and leave Abraham behind.
Vigilantees have the means to elevate Christ but choose to play the part of terrorist and disclose the soiled clothes and darkened imaginations of a Christ-rejecting generation.
See http://www.dannyshelton.com for a thorough view of the demonic majoring in minors and the terrorism of law as the peace that the world needs. These are the people who lie to their children about law and justice then expect them to see the virtue in Christ.
Their arrival is not an accident. God wanted us to see them in infrared and ultraviolet light, and therefore inspired Paul to tag the phenomenon.
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, through the insincerity of liars whose consciences are seared, who forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 1 Timothy 4:1-3
Murder and rape are in the DNA of culture and religion. It needs to change. The authorities can put people into reservations and prisons but they have not yet successfully taken the truth out of God’s elect.
They answered him, Abraham is our father. Jesus said to them, If you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing the works Abraham did, but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did. John 8:39-40
If you are not this guy defined above tell yourself “how great is our God” to have separated me from the perishing.
