I have trouble blogging about politics in the manner that I used to before 2008: as if there were any politicians who might have the peoples' best interest at heart.
Every move made by any politician earns the side-eye from me. Today it's Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) who is filibustering the US Senate with the ultimate goal of dismantling Obamacare.
Now, I don't have any problem with Cruz personally; it's his profession that invites my skepticism. Call it bigotry, if you must. And while I'm happy to see a member of the GOP finally step out against the socialization of this country without fear of being called a racist--as happens to every non-black person who opposes any project of President Obama's--I have to ask, at this point, "what different does it make?"
Because of this skepticism, this cynicism, it's no longer possible for me to separate earthly matters from spiritual matters. If I thought they were separate, I'd shut down this blog and make a run for some border. But there's no safety to be found behind what will soon be non-existent borders. Fact is, I think this world is about to see how crooked and evil most of its politicians and rulers really are. It is my belief that safety can been found behind another type of border, however; one not drawn by men.
Events in the world are lining up the way God revealed to His servants as detailed in the Bible. We can no longer ignore it and I can no longer separate the two spheres in my writing and observation. Fair warning.
