Thoughts For Easter 2019

"We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force."
Ayn Rand

By the way, I have read most of her major works ... and I now find Ayn Rand's philosophy of "objectivism" to be totally anti-Christian. One might then ask why I am quoting her on Easter Sunday.

The Kingdom of G-d will have a totalitarian government. Although we have a loving G-d, He will indeed rule us by brute force. That is exactly what the following words mean:

And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
Revelation 19:15 KJV
