Evangelicals Are Tired of Living!

Many Evangelicals have conned their congregations into believing God determined that Donald J. Trump should be president because he would usher in the second coming of Christ and they believe that establishing an embassy in Jerusalem will bring it to pass. In essence, they want the end to come based upon John's revelation which means they're tired of living.
When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth--Gog and Magog--and to gather them for battle. In number they are like sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Revelation 20:7-10 NIV
He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. Those who are victorious will inherit all this and I will be their God and they will be my children. But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars--they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death. Revelation 21:6-8 NIV
There is a great deal more that is revealed to John, but since I'm trying to make a point about the lie perpetuated by many church leaders, I won't spin my wheels trying to extrapolate it. The bottom line is--since the Evangelicals believe trump is the impetus to bringing about the return of Christ--they are also acknowledging he is anti-Christ (Satan, the devil) because according to scripture, it is when Satan is loosed and most of us--Christian and non-Christian believe trump is the epitome of the anti-Christ because nothing he does--is Christ-like and certainly does not reflect his belief or willingness to do as Christ would do.

Now, many may argue my point and that is certainly their right, but I've never seen anyone as divisive, vile, and ego-driven as trump or his idolatrous worshipers who are filled with hateful bigotry. They are the ones who need to be concerned about the end since they will miss heaven. What they have overlooked is, there will be no "new Jerusalem" until all the old has been destroyed and at that time--there will be no need for walls or war--because the reference is to our lives in heaven.

I can't speak for every Born-Again believer who truly conducts themselves as followers of Christ, but I can speak for myself. I am appalled at the atrocity Evangelicals have instigated by lying to their flocks. They have misled and misdirected so many people into believing the lie that many are prepared to "kill others" because of their idolatrous worship of trump. But I am not their judge, God is--the God of heaven, not the god of this world who has deceived them and is now, laughing out loud at their folly. They may not see it, yet, and may not even see it before their demise, but it will be noted in the books of history and certainly noted in the records of heaven.

The Evangelicals in the 21st Century--are the contemporary Pharisees who are not interested in all developing and maintaining a life with Christ--doing good, but in controlling what people think and do. They have been deceived and are not willing to admit their mistakes and tell people the truth.
They don't have to tell people the truth; there are many of us who continue to tell the truth--Evangelicals have lied to their congregations and are apparently, tired of living. Well, since they're tired of living, they should effectuate their deaths and leave the rest of us alone. The end will come--but only when God decides, not them. But we have to give them credit where credit is due--their choice (not God's) in supporting trump is leading to the destruction of the earth and God will hold them accountable for that.

For the rest of us who are not tired of living, but have hope in the future and a desire for our children and grandchildren to enjoy the planet--we have work to do and we don't have time to wait for if we delay--for any reason--we perpetuate the nonsense being spewed by those Evangelicals who are tired of living. It is time to Resist the evil that confronts and unite to conquer the evil with love and compassion, driving out all the hate and bigotry.
