Enemy Action IV

 I'll just post this link for now, and maybe comment more later:

One question:  Why didn't the leftist enemy of the people find this info when it was "news", rather than simply run with it like the enemies of the people they are?  They are, after all, supposed to be news organizations, right?  Journalists?  According to one journalism student from Kentucky who isn't very bright, just reporting whatever they're told is their job.  It's not to dig deeper to find out what's really true.  Too bad how it affects consumers of news. 

Trump is still right about the leftist media. 

UPDATE:

Yes, Trump was right, and here's one of the few remaining actual journalists who are still Allies of the People who would agree:

About an hour long, but worth the time spent.

My Easter Post (Yeah, Yeah...I Know...)

 Life being distracting, and with so many goofy leftists to correct on the internet, I never got around to doing an Easter post, particularly after noting once again how none of Dan's Easter posts are about Easter.  He challenged me to do one, so here it is.  Finally.

Aside from merely wishing everyone a Happy Easter, or merely posting "He Is Risen!" as I've done in the past, this is about the significance of Easter.  My observations regarding Dan's Easter posts have been, as I stated above, they don't say anything about what makes Easter a special day in the Christian calendar.  That is, what's the big deal? 

Easter can be said to be actually three days long, from the crucifixion remembered on Friday, to the resurrection on Sunday.  It's kind of a package deal.  But Sunday is the day referred to as "Easter", and the resurrection that occurred on the day we call "Easter" has its own significance in the faith.  Jesus rising from the dead assures us of the salvation He guaranteed by His death on the cross.  He conquered death by rising from it, but more importantly for us, He conquered it for us, as we, too, shall one day be resurrected.  Because He did, we have that Blessed Assurance we will, too.

Matthew records several times when Jesus prophesied about His resurrection.  So actually doing it was important, to say the least.  This impossible thing not only happened, but Jesus told His disciples it was going to happen!  How cool is that??  No doubt they felt stupid later when they were reminded of it after the fact by the angel at the empty tomb.

But Paul spells out the significance of this most incredible miracle:

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.  -1 Cor 15:17

But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.  For since death came through a man, the resurrections of the dead comes also through a man.  For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.  But each in his own turn:  Christ, the first fruits; then when He comes, those who belong to Him.  -1 Cor 15:20-23

Paul then goes on into more detail, also describing how we'll be raised in "the splendor of heavenly bodies", imperishable, glorious and powerful. 

That seems to me rather significant.  Far more so than any lefty notions about Christ being a revolutionary stickin' it to the man.
