Apoclypse, that was today's Gospel from Mark 13, the famous mini apocalypse or condensed version of the final wrap we see in the Revelation to St. John the Divine. It's powerful.
Wars and rumours of wars, earthquakes and famine, persecution mounting to a crescendo in the great tribulation, the abomination of desolation in the Temple.
Antichrist with supernatural, diabolic power to deceive the very elect, the light of the sun and moon darkened and at the climax of the battle, the Son of Man returning as He left, in clouds of glory; all within "this generation." And we have to ask, has any of this been fulfilled and will it be? The answer is yes, and yes.
Jerusalem and its temple were utterly destroyed by Titus and Vespasian in 70 AD, within the generation of Christ's prophecy. And what are the crown of thorns, scourging, mocking, betrayal and crucifixion but the desecration of the temple of Christ's body?
The ultimate sacrilege, Daniel's abomination of desolation waged against the Messiah who rose from the dead to lead His elect through tribulation to the restoration of Israel in His Mystical Body, the Church.
So yes, the prophecy has been fulfilled, partially, but this points towards a greater fulfillment. The sack of Jerusalem and Christ's Passion are moments or gears in the apocalyptic clock which was set in motion at the moment of the Incarnation.
A clock that's racing to its end in the final battle, the apex of the conflict between good and evil. We know the result, victory's assured, but beware the Dragon as its chains are unloosed and the Church, like ore in the fire, is refined to precious metal through tribulation.
Watch, pray and stand fast against the rising tide of evil which would destroy all that's good, true and holy.
Here we see Western Civilization giving a lovely rainbow gift to his precious spirit animal. Let's get a close up of Civ's smiling face.
Look how happy he is, handing an adorable green bowed rainbow to his favorite animal, the pink horned unicorn!
Beautiful, isn't it. And don't even think of these heartwarming photos as being some kind of metaphor for the collapse of faith, morals and sanity in what used to be called Christendom. No, don't do that, it'd be hatecrime and then you'd have to lose your job and go to jail.
There they are, three family heirlooms sitting in the back yard of your compound, rusting. And you look at the metal chairs which belonged to your Great Great Grandmother and think, it's high time these relics of a better age were brought back to life, restored.
Walmart
The next thing you know you're at Walmart, getting a haircut, taking care of business at the 1st Inconvenience Bank and buying sandpaper, primer and white enamel Rustoleum spray paint. Then what?
Sanded
Sand the chairs. I used 100 grit paper and a couple of sanding sponges, and wish I'd bought more; they're efficient. When the grit's gone, deploy them as blocks and that works too.
The Watcher
A hour or so later congratulate yourself, well done, you've finished sanding. Stand back and behold the improvement, a promise of things to come.
Apocalyptic reverie over, wash the beasts down with some kind of spirit and spray. Three coats took around two cans per chair and I think they looked sharp, but the third chair needed special treatment.
Filthy
That's because it'd managed to get itself especially filthy and had to be cleaned before sanding. An old abrasive kitchen sponge did the trick and neatly removed flaking paint to boot. Result.
Clean
Chair #3 gets a sanding and spray tomorrow. In the meanwhile, #1 and #2 rest on the porch, looking good and ready for action. They'll be joined by a swing and #3 as time moves inexorably on towards its end.
French leaderene, Emmanuelle Macron has called for the creation of a special EU army, presumably because the secular European superstate can't rely on evil nationalist countries, like the US, for defense.
Well said Emmanuelle, about time someone issued a patriotic call to arms! But what will the EU army look like? Maybe it'll look like Germany's defense minister.
Or Holland's.
Or Spain's.
Then there's France herself.
The enemy is trembling. For what it's worth, I reckon an all arms US battle group could take out Europe in maybe a fortnight, or sooner.
Do you want to be the slave of an unelected, hyper wealthy, trans euro, secularist elite ruling out of Brussels or would you rather be free? Do you want to be a sovereign Great Britain, an independent nation or would you rather be a subset drone of the MillSoc EU hivemind?
Bob Geldof
That was the question and the UK voted against Bob Geldof and for sovereignty. Then it passed the reins over to Theresa May and the, ahem, Conservatives to work it out. May, you might remember, was all in favour of staying in the European Union but pledged herself to following through on the will of the people.
Theresa May
Then she didn't, unsurprisingly, and produced a plan which keeps the UK in the EU Customs Union and unable to operate an independent trade policy.
Now she's facing a revolt as Cabinet Ministers resign and members of the self-described Conservative Party mutiny against May's seemingly traitorous leadership.
Traitor
Get out of the EU, voted the people. Not so fast, working class serfs, said Brussels and its friends in London, and now what? Good question but don't pretend the Left's about democracy, they're about power and keeping it.
That was thwarted in the US in 2016 and they've been wailing, thrashing, shrieking, clawing and hyperventilating ever since. So let's see if May's party is actually capable of doing what the UK majority asked it to do. If not, that same majority might have something to say.
Exactly
And by way of aside, I was at a party in London years ago and there was a man with a red briefcase at the kitchen table.
"I say," remarked LSP, Lanson in hand, "Are you something to do with the government?" My new friend swiveled 'round and said, famously, "I'm a Cabinet Minister. That's why I have this red briefcase."
Well, you'd better add some value then, hadn't you.
The inaccurate subhead of this mind blog reads, "God, Guns, Church & Country Life in Texas & Anything Else I care to Think of," thank you very much. And that's great but the anything else side has been taken over, by Meetings.
Instead of shooting, riding, fishing and swapping tips on the best way to get rid of Marxism at the local feed store or grain bin collective, all I do is drive to the metrosprawl for meetings.
They're not bad, in fact they're good because everyone's on the right side of the war against Satan. But still, let's see less meetings and more action.
Speaking of action, Michael Avenatti, the famously rich millionaire socialist champion of women everywhere has been arrested for beating up a woman. Via Breitbart:
The woman involved in the alleged physical altercation reportedly scrambled from the apartment where the incident occurred and was spotted on the sidewalk holding her hands over her eyes while shouting into her cell phone. “I can’t believe you did this to me,” she said, according to TMZ.
Five minutes later, TMZ continues, Avenatti arrived at the apartment complex and yelled repeatedly, “She hit me first,” then, “This is bullshit, this is fucking bullshit.” The alleged melee occurred after the woman attempted to pick up her belongings and called 911 after tempers ran hot.
Los Angeles authorities confirmed Avenatti is currently in police custody.
Did the fantastically wealthy MillSoc DNC presidential candidate and advocate of women's rights everywhere, beat on an unfortunate woman or is it all a ruse?
For that matter, did Hillary tire of a competitor at the same time Lucifer decided to discard his toy? Unhappy confluence of aspects!
While we're at it, will HUMA take kindly to OCASIO in the Hillary 2020 run?
Deadly assault rifles are a lot of fun, no doubt about it but they have their problems. They get dirty, just for a start, and then there's all these bits that keep the beasts together. Like the firing pin retaining pin.
Broken, Useless
Lose that bit and you're in trouble, the same holds if the annoying thing breaks, which is exactly what happened to one of mine. There it was, a broken pin. Useless.
Fun Guns is Fun
To put it right I drove to Fun Guns in Waco instead of ordering the part on the information superhighway. Partly because I didn't want to wait and also because I figured it'd be fun to go to a store that wasn't Walmart. And Fun Guns is just what it says it is, full of fun guns.
Unbroken, Useful
Pistols, deadly assault rifles in several calibers, a few bolt actions and shotguns, optics, barrels, lower and upper receivers for AR builds, triggers, parts, ammo and all kinds of neat stuff. The people that run it are friendly too and don't have the rude, condescending attitude you meet in some gun shops. I like that.
Back Together Again
So I bought a few pins and a sling swivel, miraculously resisting the strong temptation to buy an S&W .357 Magnum, a new scope and an AK. These things will have to wait. And guess what? The new pin fits like a champ.
Superstar MillSoc pop celebrity, Neil Young blasted President Trump after a raging forest fire burned his $3,600,000 Malibu house to the ground.
Neil Young, net worth an estimated $65 million, is a committed socialist and ripped into the Weather and the President for destroying his rustic Malibu retreat.
Neil Young
“California is vulnerable," stated the fantastically wealthy leftist on his malfunctioning blog, "not because of poor forest management as DT (our so-called president) would have us think. As a matter of fact this is not a forest fire that rages on as I write this. We are vulnerable because of Climate Change; the extreme weather events and our extended drought is part of it."
Rich, Socialist Rich
The confused and aging singer songwriter continued, “DT seems to be the Denier. (I’m holding back and not using the word liar because it rhymes with denier). It really is time for a reckoning with this unfit leader. Maybe our new congress can help. I sure hope so.”
Neil Young is famous for hit singles such as Old Man (take a look at yourself) and married Daryl Hannah, net worth $22 million, in July. Malibu has the highest house prices in America, with an average of over $3 million and holds the world's highest concentration of elite socialists.
Off The Fat Of The Land
Neil Young isn't the only MillSoc celeb to find himself attacked by the weather. Miley Cyrus and Shannon Doherty's mansions have been destroyed though Cher and Alyssa Milano's have been spared, so far. Who knows, perhaps they paid their weather tax on time.
The big guns on the Western Front were firing right up to the minute of the Armistice. This short recording was taken near American positions close to the river Moselle.
Our Great Great Uncle, Private John Q. Adams of Killeen, Texas, was wounded by machine gun fire after the Armistice had been signed; word of the peace hadn't reached that sector of the front. He died ten days later. Rest in Peace.
I'll leave you with this, At The Cenotaph by Seigried Sasson.
I saw the Prince of Darkness, with his Staff,
Standing bare-headed by the Cenotaph:
Unostentatious and respectful, there
He stood, and offered up the following prayer.
'Make them forget, O Lord, what this Memorial
Means; their discredited ideas revive;
Breed new belief that War is purgatorial
Proof of the pride and power of being alive;
Men's biologic urge to readjust
The Map of Europe, Lord of Hosts, increase;
Lift up their hearts in large destructive lust;
And crown their heads with blind vindictive Peace.'
As world leaders met in Paris for the 100th anniversary of the armistice that brought an end to the Great War, French President Emmanuel Macron took the opportunity to blast nationalism.
“Patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism. Nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism,” stated the unpopular French leader in an apparent attempt to boost New World Order globalism.
Look How The Globalists Hate Putin
Macron, who is a despised Illuminati puppet, is tanking in the polls with a miserable 19% approval rating. He used to work for the enormously powerful Rothschild banking cabal, and presumably isn't impressed by the fact that patriotic Americans and many others died to save his nation.
Thumbs Up
Just think, all those misguided members of the French Resistance who betrayed their patriotism by loving their nation. Such traitors!
But seriously, if you're an unpopular Macronite who hates nationalism but loves patriotism, then what are you patriotic for, what's your patria? It's obviously not your country or nation because that's evil, so what's left?
Behold Your Rulers
How about a borderless European secular superstate, complete with its own army and ruled by unelected MillSoc mandarins in Brussels. And guess who pays for that, at interest.
