Biden speaks about January 6th: A house divided? Civil war?
Protesters after Capital evacuated 1/6/21 ()
Today is January 6th. Here are some edited excerpts related to the current state of the USA and some comments from US President Biden:
One year after the Jan. 6 insurrection, signs of a nation deeper in peril
January 6, 2022
Even the vigils speak to our differences.
As the nation reflects on the year … there will be gatherings for those who believe the attack was an attempted coup and who are alarmed by the passage of restrictive voting rules in several states.
There will also be events for those who …. maintain that former President Donald Trump won the 2020 election and who consider those arrested in connection to the riot “political prisoners.”
Whatever hopes Americans may have held that 2021 would be a year of healing across the political divide have turned out quite differently. Instead, surveys indicate rising alarm over a democracy in crisis, the birth of a mass movement sympathetic to insurrection and growing support for political violence. …
In the immediate aftermath of the riot, the energy behind it appeared to have been driven underground. Key voices, Trump principal among them, were removed from Twitter. Online gathering spaces such as Parler went offline. Paranoia about increased surveillance by law enforcement led groups such as the Boogaloo Boys to cancel public gatherings.
But the relative quiet was temporary.
“These movements aren’t broken in any sense, and they’ve spent the last year very diligently trying to figure out how to overcome the new hurdles that are in front of them,” said Jared Holt, resident fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab), which has tracked the online activity of the far right during the past year. “Many of them have been successful in doing so to varying degrees.” https://www.npr.org/2022/01/06/1070725972/one-year-after-jan-6-signs-of-a-nation-deeper-in-peril
January 6, 2022
President Biden came out swinging in his speech Thursday morning, but still somehow missed the mark. …, the 79-year-old geriatric president tried his hardest to sound virile. “I will stand in the breach. I will defend this nation. And I will allow no one to put a dagger to the throat of American democracy,” Biden announced. At this point, we’re mostly surprised he managed to wake up this early.
In its review of the speech, the NYT wondered if this is a preview of the kind of rhetoric Americans are likely to see heading into the midterms this fall – and 2024 just around the corner after that. The strategy worked for Dems in 2020, but has been less effective in the months since, as the electorate has focused mostly on surging inflation and COVID numbers, issues that directly impact most Americans. At one point, Biden proclaimed that his predecessor wasn’t just “a former president but a defeated former president”. He also blasted Trump for doing “nothing” for hours as the “assault” on the Capitol ground on. He also accused his main political rival of spinning a “web of lies” and for placing his own ego above protecting Democracy.
At least one GOP senator, Lindsey Graham, accused Biden of brazenly politicizing the occasion. …
the fact that the {US} AG {Attorney General} has stopped just short of openly calling for Americans to be persecuted for thought crimes … https://www.zerohedge.com/political/biden-plans-searing-critique-trump-and-gop-dems-make-jan-6-all-about-democracy
January 6, 2022
Former President Donald Trump responded to President Biden’s sharp criticism in a Jan. 6 speech, saying his Democratic successor is trying to distract from his record.
Biden “used my name today to try to further divide America,” Trump said in a statement. “This political theater is all just a distraction for the fact Biden has completely and totally failed.” https://www.foxnews.com/politics/jan-6-trump-responds-biden-divide-america
The USA is deeply divided. It has politicized more and more and had less respect for facts and truth.
Last month, World Net Daily reported the following:
Ex-Army generals fear insurrection or ‘civil war’ in 2024
December 18, 2021 at 8:50pm
Three retired U.S. Army generals have warned of insurrection or possibly even civil war if the results of the 2024 presidential election are not accepted by sections of the military.
You’ll never believe who should be held responsible – the Jan. 6 defendants.
Retired Major Generals Paul D. Eaton and Antonio M. Taguba joined retired Brigadier General Steven M. Anderson urged today’s leaders to act to prevent such scenes, calling on today’s leaders to “war-game” an attempted coup.
In an op-ed for the Washington Post published on Friday and reported as a news story in Newsweek, the former military leaders said they were “increasingly concerned” about the “potential for lethal chaos inside our military, which would put all Americans at severe risk” in the aftermath of the election.
They warned of the potential for “total breakdown of the chain of command along partisan lines” and the risk of a “shadow government” led by a losing candidate who refuses to concede defeat, directly referencing former President Donald Trump. https://www.wnd.com/2021/12/ex-army-generals-fear-insurrection-civil-war-2024/
The 2020 election, January 6th incident, and the impeachment vote in January 2021 have deepened the divide in the USA–and this has been fanned by many in the mainstream as well as the alternative media.
Last February, a poll found 46% were concerned about a possible civil war in the USA:
A poll released last week by Zogby Analytics reveals that a plurality of Americans expect another civil war to occur at some point in the future. 46% of Americans indicated that the occurrence was likely, with 30% stating it was “somewhat likely” and 16% stating it was “very likely.” 42% of Americans predict that another civil war will not occur. …
Pluralities of Republicans and Democrats both predict that a civil war will happen, with independents disagreeing. 49% of Republicans and 45% of Democrats predict a civil war. 02/09/21 https://bigleaguepolitics.com/shock-poll-46-of-americans-believe-nation-headed-for-a-second-civil-war/
Instead of fighting each other, love is what is needed.
As Jesus taught:
37 … “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” (Matthew 22:37-40)
27 “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. 29 To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. 30 Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31 And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
32 “But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. 35 But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. 36 Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. (Luke 6:27-36)
Instead of true love, a lot of hate and anger has been displayed and whipped up.
As far as civil unrest/civil war goes, before his election, I warned people to expect unrest during a Donald Trump presidency as well as the the possibility of civil war in the USA.
The January 6, 2021 protest and storming of the USA capital notwithstanding, the USA has not yet entered a civil war, but the stage is being set for greater violence in the future.
Here is something I warned about here in September 2016:
For years I have warned that more civil unrest was coming to the USA. We have already seen a re-emergence of civil unrest already in 2015 and 2016.
That does not mean that I agree that globalists will necessarily trigger it etc. But the media certainly has fanned the flames in the past and I expect them to do more such fanning in the future if Donald Trump were to win. (Thiel B. ‘Chaos will erupt across America in less than 100 days… no matter who wins the election’. COGwriter, September 5, 2016)
Plus, here is something related to that in my book Donald Trump and America’s Apocalypse:
For one prophetic example, on September 5, 2016, I warned that the media would fan the flames for civil unrest if Donald Trump were elected. The morning after his election I warned that we would see civil unrest. Less than 24 hours later, tens of thousands, of various backgrounds, were protesting (Blau M, et al. Protesters target Trump buildings in massive street rallies. CNN, November 10, 2016 ) and certain ones in the media helped fan those flames of those protests. Expect more protests against Donald Trump. (Thiel B.Donald Trump and America’s Apocalypse. Nazarene Books, 2017, pp. 15-16)
Donald Trump has been a polarizing figure and has offended many …. Expect civil unrest and rioting. The Bible prophesies “There shall be terror within” (Deuteronomy 32:25). (Thiel B.Donald Trump and America’s Apocalypse. Nazarene Books, 2017, p. 86)
That has happened.
Now, notice something from my book Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction:
Both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have specifically caused people of the United States to err further away from biblical morality, which will lead to destruction (Isaiah 3:12; 9:16). Instead of advocating what should be considered as biblical morality, they have pushed positions that are clearly opposed to the laws of God (e.g. Romans 1:18-32).
They have advocated policies (as have others) which are expected to increase the debt of the U.S.A., hurt its military superiority, lead to civil unrest (cf. Deuteronomy 32:25), and setting the U.S.A. up for ruin (Habakkuk 2:6-8). (Thiel B. Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction. Nazarene Books, 2021)
No one should put their confidence in Joe Biden or Donald Trump.
Troubles are prophesied (Mark 13:8).
Furthermore, the Bible warns, “There shall be terror within” (Deuteronomy 32:25).
As far as cities and the nation go, notice the following from the prophet Ezekiel:
23 ‘Make a chain,
For the land is filled with crimes of blood,
And the city is full of violence.
24 Therefore I will bring the worst of the Gentiles,
And they will possess their houses;
I will cause the pomp of the strong to cease,
And their holy places shall be defiled.
25 Destruction comes;
They will seek peace, but there shall be none.
26 Disaster will come upon disaster,
And rumor will be upon rumor.
Then they will seek a vision from a prophet;
But the law will perish from the priest,
And counsel from the elders. (Ezekiel 7:23-26)
Yes, more disaster is coming.
But most, including most Christians, will not heed until after it is a bit too late (see Church of God Leaders on Prophets and Does the CCOG have the confirmed signs of Acts 2:17-18?).
Notice the violence is prophesied to get worse. Civil unrest and political division are weakening the USA.
So much so that Gentiles will one day come and take possession of houses–this will happen to the USA during the Great Tribulation (see also When Will the Great Tribulation Begin?).
The time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), also known as the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21), is coming and the USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies (including Canada) will be affected.
On February 11, 2021, I posted the following:
Though for the nation, the Kingdom of God is the solution, but the USA will first have to go through a horrific 3 1/2 years. The end of the USA/UK world order is coming and the final Time of the Gentiles is getting nearer.
It’s up to President Joe Biden to unite the nation, and although he’s keen to talk about unity, he’s done little to indicate he intends to make sacrifices to deliver it. 02/09/21 https://bigleaguepolitics.com/shock-poll-46-of-americans-believe-nation-headed-for-a-second-civil-war/
No, I do not see Joe Biden taking steps that will stop the division. Actually, his ‘domestic terrorism’ comments and support for a proposed law related to that have further inflamed his opposition (e.g. ‘Would YOU Be Considered a Domestic Terrorist Under This New Bill?’) and have already contributed to division (see also Tulsi Gabbard: Domestic-Terrorism Bill Is “A Targeting Of Almost Half Of The Country” Michael Snyder: The Police State Is Coming For “Religious Extremists”, “Evangelical Christians”, “Pro-Life” Activists And “Libertarians”). (Thiel B. Impeachment and other division: 46% of Americans expect civil war. COGwriter, February 11, 2021)
The Biden-Harris Administration has not stopped the division. Joe Biden has taken steps that have increased it.
Jesus taught:
25 Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. (Matthew 12:25)
We are seeing more divide in the USA and parts of it certainly appear to be intentional. Much of it is ideological. The USA is becoming less and less united and more polarized. Plus, its federal government keeps increasing debt.
This will not end well for the USA (cf. Habakkuk 2:6-8; Daniel 11:39).
The divide in the USA is growing as many of its sins (including hypocrisy) become more blatant.
Notice also something that Isaiah was inspired to record:
4 Alas, sinful nation,
A people laden with iniquity,
A brood of evildoers,
Children who are corrupters!
They have forsaken the Lord,
They have provoked to anger
The Holy One of Israel,
They have turned away backward.5 Why should you be stricken again?
You will revolt more and more.
The whole head is sick,
And the whole heart faints.
6 From the sole of the foot even to the head,
There is no soundness in it,
But wounds and bruises and putrefying sores;
They have not been closed or bound up,
Or soothed with ointment.7 Your country is desolate,
Your cities are burned with fire;
Strangers devour your land in your presence;
And it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers. (Isaiah 1:4-7)
Truly, the USA is a sinful nation with a people laden with iniquity. This will not end well for the USA (Daniel 11:39; see also in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses)
Consider also the following from the prophet Amos:
9 ‘Assemble on the mountains of Samaria; See great tumults in her midst, And the oppressed within her. 10 For they do not know to do right, ‘Says the Lord, ‘Who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.’” (Amos 3:9-10)
The reference to Samaria is pointing to the USA (see also Spiritual Samaritans: Old and New). The above is consistent with both civil unrest and terrorism. Expect more to hit the USA. Many of the right and left feel oppressed, they do not know how to do right, and they have stored up violence, and in ‘protests’ can display violence and robbery.
The time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), also known as the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21), is coming and the USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies (including Canada) will be affected.
National repentance is the only way to prevent it, and that does not look likely. Personal repentance, however, is still possible. If you are an American, your personal future can still be much brighter than that of your country.
Though for the nation, the Kingdom of God is the solution, but the USA will first have to go through a horrific 3 1/2 years. The end of the USA/UK world order is coming and the final Time of the Gentiles is getting nearer.
