In the world are two forces—good and evil. For as long as there’s been good there’s been evil. Without opposition, the learning process of mortality would be impossible. In the past, it was believed that evil hid in the shadows, but that is not the case. It has always been in the open, cleverly disguised to avoid being detected for what it truly is. It often parades itself in flowery words and fained altruism. It gains acceptance by the masses who are led to believe they’re engaged in a good cause, helping humanity escape the ills of the past. Dominion, however, is its ultimate goal, and mankind is subjugated in one way or another to those whose allegiance is linked to evil. Whenever liberty is denied, you can be sure that evil is at the root. Tyranny has many forms—monarchy, oligarchy, dictatorship, etc.—each of which enriches a few at the expense of the many. Hidden within every government on earth, is an elite cadre that seeks to bring the populace under their control or keep them such. These national elements align with other groups on a global scale to bring all humanity under a one world system that they claim will eliminating all borders and all conflicts—everyone sharing equally in the world’s resources, eliminating want and suffering. To many it sound rather appealing. Not mentioned is elimination of all ownership, all family ties and a population reduction. When the United States of America came on the scene in the late 1700s, the old system had been doing well for millennia. There were no governments on the planet that allowed freedom the way our Founding Fathers envisioned it. Essentially, everything belonged to the crown or ruler, and that included every contrivance or innovation made by its subjects. Man was not allowed to do anything that didn’t first benefit the king. In many places, monumental constructions have been erected at the expense of human chattel; wars have been fought to expand the dominion of a ruler, whose ego, pride and avarice was unquenchable. Countless lives have been lost because of totalitarian ideals. Yet, after all the failed experiences of the past, the belief that a man can bring about a new utopia by controlling his fellows is very much alive and thriving. Many lives will still be lost in this vain ambition. The USA proved there was a better way, and its Constitution has been under attack from the moment it was ratified as the law of the land. This country stands as the biggest impediment to the New World Order. Only here is man’s God-given agency allowed unfettered expression within the law. Freedom, however, is the prize that evil seeks to strip from man; and once taken it is only regained with blood. Bob Hartung
