“Democratic ‘church-ianity’” is what we have today; as we are completely out of order! What is this, “Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues… [*1 Corinthians 12: 27, 28 (KJV)]”?? We have made false gods out of both “government” and “country”; claiming that, “God is government,” and “government is God”. Furthermore, “God and country,” has now become, “God is country”! This is all pretentious, condescending, narcissistic, anti-Christ bullshit!! Behold, our idolatry and the deception, the grand delusion of “democracy”!
Democracy is an over-glorified system created by mere, mortal men, and which caters unto the unbridled lusts and pride of the self-absorbed majority; and what good is democracy if the majority of brain-dead people in it are not currently experiencing the living “koinonia” (or, joint-intercourse) of the Holy Ghost within them, and sharing it with one another?? The kingdom of God is not some vain, man-prescribed democracy, neither is there some old, fat, vain, misogynistic megalomaniac sitting upon its throne; but a King of Glory who, not only loves us unconditionally and all-inclusively, but also gave Himself and spilled every last drop of His blood for us… and to redeem us from all of this shallow, outward, superficial self-worship!
Don’t you think it is high-time that we start paying attention unto Him, setting our minds and affections upon Him alone; while letting go of all this worthless “outward show”?? Your government does not love you. Your country does not love you. Both your government and your country love money (*as do the christians within them both!), and the false sense of power and control it presents unto them; and with the added prospects of manipulating and controlling their own lives, as well as the lives of others. Like it or not, this is us today…:
“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. [*2 Timothy 3: 1-7 (KJV)]"
