CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 16, 2022
THERE ARE MANY TRANSLATIONS OF SCRIPTURE AND THAT INCLUDES PROVERBS 29:2, WHICH READS IN THE NEW AMERICAN STANDARD VERSION: “WHEN THE RIGHTOUS INCREASE (OR ARE THE GODLY ARE IN AUTHORITY) THE PEOPLE REJOICE. BUT WHEN A WICKED PERSON RULES, PEOPLE GROAN.
I GROAN WHEN I SEE SAME-SEX MARRIAGE LEGITIMIZED BY CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT. I GROAN WHEN I WITNESS THE PRESIDENT ATTACKS THOSE WHO ARE CRITICAL OF GENDER RE-ASSIGNMENT SURGERY AND PUBERTY BLOCKERS FOR CHILDREN.
THE MESSAGE COMING FROM THIS AND SO MUCH ELSE IS THAT IT IS NOT THE FAULT OF ONE PERSON. IT IS THE FAULT OF THOSE WHO VOTED FOR THAT PERSON AND THE MANY IN CONGRESS WHO BELIEVE AS HE DOES. THE KINGDOM OF THIS WORLD IS RAPIDLY HEADING TO ITS PRE-ORDAINED DESTINATION, WHILE THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS HEADED IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. IF LEADERSHIP REFLECTS WHOM ONE FOLLOWS, THE BLAME FOR WOKENESS AND INCREASING SECULARISM LIES WITH THOSE WHO VOTE FOR THESE PEOPLE.
RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS A NATION, BUT SIN IS A REPROACH TO ANY PEOPLE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
