We have nothing new to report today, but something old. A few warnings for the next four years:
"Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or letter supposed to have come from us, saying that the day of the Lord has already come. Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God."
2 Thessalonians 2:1-4
"The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness."
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
Paul was prepared not only for the Obama ascension, but for the coming welfare state:
"For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: 'If a man will not work, he shall not eat.'
"We hear that some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies. Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat."
2 Thessalonians 3:10-12
"The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops."
2 Timothy 2:6
Under the Equalizer-in-Chief, the government will seize the crops of the hardworking farmer and give them to the idle busybody.
And another thing--why aren't they called Thessalonicans??
