Freedom deterred-End times

As I sit here writing this blog, I realize that I have so much freedom now. I have freedom to express my opinions about a host of issues. Yet even now my freedom is being deterred. How you may ask? It's fairly simple actually. Because people do have all this freedom, sometimes no one counts the cost. There is one. As most in the United States have now realized there is a cost. All of us must choose whether or not to give up our freedoms so everyone can have what they need. Freedom requires sacrifice.

What most have not realized however is that by accepting the control, we give up our freedom to be. Yes, I know all the arguments for and against the huge change taking place in our government. Yes, I know about all the good things that will and have happened because that law was accepted. I also know that something must be done. I don't have the answers to what should and shouldn't be done, but I have a queer feeling deep down inside that tells me that what the government is doing is terribly wrong. Why you may ask? When the government starts getting involved in the well-being of a person and dictating who should and shouldn't live and die, there's a real problem. Yes, I know that it doesn't sound like that now. I know all the arguments that all that is happening is good. I have to wonder though why so many are "up in arms" about it. What do we know about all the provisions of this law? Nothing.

Here's the scary part.....we're taking a giant leap towards having the government dictate our every move and decide who gets served. The equipment is here for doing this. In Revelation 13:16-18(KJV) "And he causeth all, small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of a man, and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. I don't about you, but that's the main reason why I have a really bad feeling about this whole situation.

We must all prepare for what's coming. Then pray for those who don't know the Lord.
