There is an oppressive spirit in the world today and it is driving people mad!
The greatest weapon of mass destruction today is a human, for we are killing our own kind more than animals kill animals!
When was the last time we heard any good news from the President of the United States?
When was the last time we heard any happy news from the President, or from any of the politicians in Washington?
When was the last time we heard any good or happy news from news networks, such as television, radio, or newspapers?
When was the last time we heard any good or happy news from the United Nations, from the European Union, or from any other institution or government worldwide?
When was the last time you heard any good or happy news from a neighbor?
The people of the United States are up to their necks in laws, rules, and regulations, yet our President and politicians work every day to write more laws, more rules, more regulations.
Religion is man's greatest invention of programmed mind control, an assembly line of laws, rules, and regulations, reproducing itself in the minds of people: so that people become walking-talking textbooks of religion and its oppressive agenda: and parents teach their children to be like them, which is generational oppression, or an assembly line of mass production, one generation after another.
Therefore, we should be able to see and understand that both government and religion are institutions of oppression, holding people as prisoners to laws, rules, and regulations.
When was the last time you saw political leaders of nations laughing and having fun?
When was the last time you saw leaders of religions laughing and having fun?
To be truthful, there is no laughter or fun in oppression.
Oppression produces depression, and people worldwide are self-exploding today because they can no longer live under the pressure. Their backs are against the walls. They have no place to run and no place to hide to find peace and rest---for their minds, and also for their hearts and souls. Their hurt and pain is deep within them and there is no one to hear their pleas. They are striking out with anger, killing themselves, killing others, and destroying relationships.
"There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked." (Isaiah 48: 22)
But people, however, do not see themselves as wicked. Neither do they see themselves as sinners. For it is their sin that is producing their wickedness, and wickedness is producing oppression.
Consequently, the leaders of politics and the leaders of religion are enabling people to live with unhappy faces because of the laws, rules, and regulations they impose on people; for even the politicians and religious heads do not see themselves as sinners. They see themselves above the law because they see themselves as the law and the enforcers of its oppression. Therefore, there are no happy faces in governments, and there are no happy faces in religion.
"For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." (1st Timothy 6: 10)
It should be obvious, then, that money is the lifeblood of both politics and religion; for if money is removed, governments and religions would collapse and disappear, for their foundations are built on the love of money. They need money to operate, to pay for the buildings and for the books they write with all of their laws, rules, and regulation. They also need money to pay all the workers their wages and office expenses. Therefore, governments and religions need slaves to give their money before benefits can be received. Once enslaved, they remained enslaved because their minds have been indoctrinated to believe that they must give in order to get---even to continue giving when they are not receiving anything. After all, none of this stuff is free!---not even the salvation they offer from the hands of human priests, who assume the identity of gods!
Whatever happened to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? Where are all of the happy faces in the world today? And if our happiness is built on the foundation of money, what do we do when we have no money? Our lives and our liberties are taken away by the leaders of governments and the leaders of religions because we have believed the lie that money buys happiness: for we have believed that we would receive happiness in exchange for our money!
"By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, Saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?" (Psalm 137: 1-4)
Today, however, people worldwide are captives---in their own lands. Their freedoms have been captured by the hands of politicians and religious heads: so that we are only as free as political law allows as well as only free as religious law allows: so that all of us are as dogs on leashes because of national and international LEASH LAWS. Because of these two regimes, we are not free to roam about nations freely, nor are we free to worship freely. Our lives are being dictated by the dictators of governments and by the dictators of religion.
Over the past two thousand years, these dictators of governments and dictators of religion have been secretly working together to erase the knowledge of God from the minds of people, to erase the knowledge of Christ, and to erase the knowledge of the Bible: wanting instead that we should live our lives as dogs on leashes, to be obedient to their commands, to give them our money, and to worship gods that do not exist.
Have you had enough? Have you had enough of being on a leash, or from being in jail?
If so, then come to Christ and experience freedom from the bondage of sin and oppression for the first time in your life!
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ; and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation." (2nd Corinthians 5: 17-18)
Know Christ and you will have a happy face!
