China’s regime is conducting “unrestricted warfare” against America. Unrestricted warfare means total war. The regime’s deliberate spread of COVID-19 and support for the Chinese fentanyl gangs, for example, should be viewed in that light. Washington should be trying to end the rule of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). It is time to declare a “people’s war” against the CCP. We are in an us-or-them fight.

I want to be clear as a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ, a true Christian, I am opposed to declaring war on anything, anyone, any place other than to declare war and stand firm and fight daily in the spiritual war taking place.

I believe completely, wholly, and emphatically that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are in control. Of all things. Everywhere. Sovereign beyond the comprehension or belief of the overwhelming majority as most are darkness, in darkness, placing their trust in men, women, and the things of this world lacking insight and awareness of God, the God of the Christian and Jewish Bible. Lacking faith. Lacking true renewal of heart and mind being born anew into a new creature.

Praying and believing daily…God’s will be done, on earth, as in heaven.

That said, the world does not see things this way, because the world is blind and cannot see. Does not believe. Therefore, all of and in the world stumble in their blindness. As does every world leader acting in a worldly manner in these very last of the last days of this world as it has been known before all Bible prophecy is fulfilled and the Lord Jesus Christ returns a Second and Final time.

Prior to The Day of the Lord…much suffering, pain, wars, trials, and tribulations are coming. Beyond the comprehension and belief of most. Even those professing faith in Christ, in God, in the Holy Spirit, and in the Holy Bible.

Only an unaware foolish person would deny we are at war on many fronts at this time. With many nations, peoples, ideologies, and religions.

Time to be a keen observer, a faithful and trusting believer not in the ways of the world or men and women of the world, but to be a keen observer of all transpiring on this lost and sinful world hurtling to its demise as it has been known as a faithful and trusting believer in God, in the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Holy Spirit, and in the inerrant infallible living Holy Bible. Every word of the Word.

It is time, has been well past time to not only declare war on the lying evil darkness of disbelief, worldly philosophies, idol worship, false teachings, and false teachers, and the Enemy and all his legions of enslaved denying God, mocking Jesus, and spitting on the Word of God by being a humble, prayerful, obedient, trusting and faithful servant of the Lord — to do so as the salt of the earth, a light unto this dark and evil world, as a truly different kind of soldier the world does not understand. Trained and equipped not to kill another person, not to occupy and destroy another land — but as a soldier to bring light, truth, hope, and the gospel of eternal life which is Jesus Christ into and onto the raging battlefield. Which is every place, among every people on this faltering and reeling in sin world.

And, yes, Communist China is at war with America. Anyone not believing that is deaf, and blind to the realities of every aspect of this escalating war that has been going on ever since Henry Kissinger and Richard Milhouse Nixon determined by their will to open the door to the evil that is Communist China and invite it in. The war of Communist China versus America began in 1972 and has only escalated over the past 51 years. If paying attention. If able to see, to understand what is truly taking place among the men, women, and leaders of this world that have cast aside God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the Word of God vainly, foolishly imagining they are the power on earth. That they are mighty men to shape a better world when by all their actions they create a much more dangerous and corrupted, rotting one.

Imagine that…

Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying,
“Let us burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”

He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision.
Then he will speak to them in his wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
“As for me, I have set my King
on Zion, my holy hill.”

I will tell of the decree:
The LORD said to me, “You are my Son;
today I have begotten you.
Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and the ends of the earth your possession.
You shall break them with a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
Serve the LORD with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
Kiss the Son,
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Psalm 2

Do not fear or be filled with anxiety. The Lord knows all. The Lord is in control. Believe and trust in the whole Word of God. Believe and trust in the Lord. Prepare, be wise, discern well and accurately for the days grow eviler and darker and troubles unlike anything the world has ever witnessed are coming. But if born anew, transformed by the Supernatural power of the Spirit of God into a new creature, renewed of heart and mind to come to see, to know, to believe, to be a true disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ, a true child of God and no longer a child of this world, a child of disobedience, a follower of the Enemy and this world? Then allow the truth, the light, the hope, and the assuredness of God’s Word and promises to prevail and hold you, guide you, and keep you.

It’s going to get a whole lot worse. As it never has before and never will again. But that ought to bring joy and understanding, keen awareness of just how accurate and true, how real every word within the Word of God is.

Our home is not here. No matter where a true disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ resides in this temporal body that will die and turn to dust once again.

Our home is in heaven. We are but sojourners — pilgrims here. And it is glaringly clear just how many professing faith do not believe this, or live accordingly, making everything of this world of the utmost importance. Engaged in politics, and elections, vainly foolishly living by their actions, the fruit they bear, that America and this world are more important to them than God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and eternity in heaven.

Imagine that, as well…

Time to Declare a ‘People’s War’ on the CCP: All of China Is One Military Machine

 

 

“I want to be clear that we do not seek to decouple or to hold China’s economy back,” declared U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo during her August trip to Beijing.

Well, why not, Madam Secretary? The U.S. should be holding the Chinese economy back. In fact, we should be doing more than just that. Washington should be trying to end the rule of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). It is time to declare a “people’s war” against the CCP. We are in an us-or-them fight.

The Party certainly thinks that way. In May 2019, People’s Daily, the CCP’s self-described “mouthpiece” and therefore most authoritative publication in China, declared a “people’s war” against the United States.

That phrase carries great meaning. As PLA Daily, an official news website of the Party’s People’s Liberation Army, stated in April, “A people’s war is a total war, and its strategy and tactics require the overall mobilization of political, economic, cultural, diplomatic, military, and other power resources, the integrated use of multiple forms of struggle and combat methods.”

What exactly are “multiple forms of struggle and combat methods”? Although it denies doing so, China’s regime is conducting “unrestricted warfare” against America.

Unrestricted warfare means total war. The regime’s deliberate spread of COVID-19 and support for the Chinese fentanyl gangs, for example, should be viewed in that light. We must remember: In China’s tightly controlled public square, the extermination of Americans is a permitted topic, as the explosive comments of prominent academic Li Yi tell us.

Most Americans have chosen not to see the Chinese regime’s hatred of America. Those who have noticed are probably perplexed by its overheated rhetoric.

Why should Americans be concerned?

The Party, with strident anti-Americanism, is establishing a justification to strike America. As James Lilley, the great American ambassador to Beijing, said, the Chinese always telegraph their punches. They are now telegraphing punches.

They are telegraphing punches when their country is facing severe economic and other problems. For ideological reasons — Xi Jinping is a Maoist at heart — China’s leader is unwilling to adopt those measures that would stabilize the situation. Instead, he is pursuing strategies that are clearly making matters worse.

It can be no coincidence that, as the country’s economy deteriorates and markets fall, China’s external behavior has become even more belligerent. For instance, Beijing, by interfering with Philippine vessels resupplying an outpost at Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea, has been risking war.

As Xi’s regime telegraphs punches, President Joe Biden appears oblivious. On September 10 while in Vietnam, he echoed Raimondo saying, “I don’t want to contain China.”

Going one step further, Biden wished his Chinese counterpart well. “I want to see China succeed economically,” the president said.

Biden’s comments are at best perplexing in light of both China’s malicious actions against America and his awareness that the country, as he proclaimed in August at a Democratic Party fundraiser in Utah, is a “ticking time bomb.” “That’s not good, because when bad folks have problems, they do bad things,” he noted.

Biden’s administration, however, is not adopting adequate measures to defend the U.S. in the face of such an evident danger. For example, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on September 5 said the United States “should continue on a course of ‘small yard, high fence’ set of technology restrictions focused narrowly on national security concerns.”

Sullivan and others are willing to impose, for instance, technology sanctions on China, but they are largely ineffective. The general approach of the Biden administration is to prohibit transfers of technology to military-related parties in China — that’s the reference to “small yard” — but allow transfers to nominally civilian parties.

America cannot enforce Sullivan’s “high fence,” unfortunately.

Xi Jinping has a policy of “military-civilian fusion,” which means that anything a civilian organization possesses can be — and is — pipelined to the Chinese military. In the Communist Party’s top-down system, every individual and entity in China must obey every Party order.

It’s a warning to America: The just-released Mate 60 Pro smartphone of Huawei Technologies contains chips from SMIC, Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp., China’s largest contract chip-maker. SMIC sold those chips to Huawei in violation of U.S. sanctions, including the Commerce Department’s Foreign Direct Product Rule. U.S. sanctions applied because the chips in the new phone were made with U.S. technology. The U.S. Commerce Department allowed transfers of American technology to SMIC on the condition there would be no transfers to Huawei.

Why would Commerce ever think SMIC would keep that promise? The only realistic solution is to treat all Chinese parties as one and to prevent tech transfers to all of them.

Xi’s regime is mobilizing all of the country’s civilians for war. The Chinese leader never misses an opportunity to talk about it. China’s regime is clearly planning to wage “kinetic” war — the type Americans are used to seeing in the movies — on America.

Obviously, American parties, especially businesses, should not be enabling the Chinese regime to kill Americans. This means they should not be engaging in any transaction that can strengthen any part of China. We should think of all of China as military.

Americans should take their enemy as it is, not the way they would like it to be. So Secretary Raimondo needs to say that, yes, the United States will take all measures to defend itself from China. And Biden must start telling the world that China is America’s enemy.

People’s Daily in May 2019 issued a commentary titled “United States, Don’t Underestimate China’s Ability to Strike Back.” The Communist Party in that commentary stated this: “Don’t say we didn’t warn you!”

Yes, Americans have been warned. All of China is one military machine, so it is time to declare an American “people’s war” on the Chinese Communist Party.
