CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 3, 2018
I HAD ANOTHER BIRTHDAY YESTERDAY. THEY COME AROUND ONCE A YEAR IN CASE YOU HAVEN’T NOTICED YOURSELF. THE OLDER I GET THE LESS I FOCUS ON THIS PASSING AWAY WORLD. AS A COLUMNIST AND COMMENTATOR I HAVE TO WRITE ABOUT IT, BUT I PLACE LESS AND LESS FAITH IN IT.
THE POLITICAL CHAOS IN WASHINGTON IS ONLY ONE EXAMPLE OF MAN’S INABILITY TO ACHIEVE ANYTHING OF LASTING VALUE. THE CONSTANT JOCKEYING FOR POLITICAL POSITION IS AN OFFENSE. NANCY PELOSI, WHO LIKELY WILL RETURN AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, SAID RECENTLY “NO ONE GIVES YOU POWER. YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT FROM THEM.”
THIS IS THE ANTITHESIS OF WHAT SCRIPTURE TEACHES. GOD’S POWER IS MADE PERFECT IN OUR WEAKNESS. MAN’S POWER IS REALLY NOT POWER AT ALL, OTHERWISE PROBLEMS WOULD BE SOLVED AND PEACE ON EARTH ACHIEVED.
THE NEW DEMOCRAT MAJORITY WILL PLAY POWER GAMES SEEKING TO DAMAGE AND POSSIBLY IMPEACH PRESIDENT TRUMP. IT’S ALL ULTIMATELY MEANINGLESS, AS SOLOMON WRITES IN ECCLESIASTES.
I SAW A FACEBOOK POSTING THAT SAID “LIFE IS SHORT; ETERNITY ISN’T.” HAPPY ETERNITY TO ME AND TO YOU IF YOU ARE A FOLLOWER OF JESUS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
