Daily Jot: Nationalism is not what the media says it is -Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com
 
The news media and progressives can't get over this quote made by President Trump October 22 at a campaign rally: "You know, they have a word, it sort of became old-fashioned. It's called a nationalist. And I say, 'Really? We're not supposed to use that word. You know what I am? I'm a nationalist. OK? I'm a nationalist." The news media and progressives see this quote as confirmation that Trump is a Nazi racist bigot white supremacist because they equate Nationalism with Hitler-era Germany Nazism. They use it as evidence of why Trump and his supporters are against open borders and noncitizen voting. It is their excuse for supporting anti-fascist groups like Antifa when violence occurs. But it's all part of a greater plan.
 
Nationalism is not defined as a fascist movement. Merriam Webster defines Nationalism as "loyalty and devotion to a nation, especially: a sense of national consciousness exalting one nation above all others and placing primary emphasis on promotion of its culture and interests opposed to those of other nations or supranational groups." Britannica defines Nationalism as "ideology based on the premise that the individual's loyalty and devotion to the nation-state surpass other individual or group interests."Dictionary.com states Nationalism is "the policy or doctrine of asserting the interests of one's own nation viewed as separate from the interests of other nations or the common interests of all nations."
 
Nationalism is the opposite of Globalism. Globalism is defined by several sources as "the attitude or policy of placing the interests of the entire world above those of individual nations." Those who may want to rule the world are certainly globalists, although they may approach their narrative with esoteric ideals of global equality of people and nations. These would include socialists, communists, fascists, and even anarchists. All of these groups have to pay lip service to pitting the less fortunate against others to attract enough special interest followers. They are experts at class warfare and wheedling their way into absolute power by convincing people they are for freedom and equality when in reality they are masters of control and class structure.
 
Making America Great Again is really about putting America's and Americans' interests above those of other nations. Those who are against this ideal are working to make America part of a globalist system where Americans' wealth is redistributed in the name of fairness and equality. As Christians, we are citizens of the nation wherein we live AND of the kingdom of God. Someday, God's creation will sit beneath the rule of its creator and be as is written in Isaiah 2:4, "nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." Until then, evil men and seducers will try to usurp God by plotting to rule the world their own way ultimately leading to the global Beast government of the end times. Let us pray that the ideal of Americanism will be among those that stand in the gap on behalf of God's people.

9-16-23 Santa Staleness

Santa Staleness :: By Edwin Tan Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles My one and only trip to Israel had more than a profound effect on my present-day psyche. It might have been three decades ago, but there is more than a lingering aftertaste. It happened smack in the last fortnight of the year. Surprisingly absent were the familiar sights and sounds of the Christmas most people are accustomed to. Hardly any Christmas decorations in downtown Tel Aviv, if not any of the shopping thoroughfares across the Holy Land. Hanukah was a breath of fresh air – not anything resembling a Christmas carol most people grew up with did surface. The Christmas Eve service in a small Protestant church not far away from Jerusalem’s Old City was awesome; songs that truly celebrated the virgin birth of our Lord, which though seemingly unheard of, were a welcome inspiration to many a soul. There was even one sung in Arabic! So it began, my overt disdain for the secular Christmas t...

9-25-23 The Farm Chronicles: One Christmas

The Farm Chronicles: One Christmas :: By Bill Wilson Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:Bill Wilson, General Articles There are a lot of terrible things going on right now in the world. But we are at the time of the year when we, as Christians, celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. We can choose to be impacted by the world around us in its dimly lit arena, or we can choose to let our light so shine. I choose the latter. I want to tell you a little about the Christmas that I had growing up on our family farm in Ohio. I was blessed to be born into a horse and cattle farm that has been in our family for some 200 years. And Christmas, especially Christmas Eve, was a wonderful time for our family. December 24 was my Dad’s birthday. And my Dad was well-loved by his neighbors and friends, so we had a lot going on Christmas Eve. I remember one special Christmas Eve. I must have been about four years old. The night was falling, and the wind and snow were whipping across the barny...

9-15-23 Miracles 2

Miracles 2 :: By Jim Towers Published on: December 21, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles This story is a continuation of the exciting things God continues doing in my life. I was supposed to have died a while back, and sometimes I feel as though I may do so soon. But since I’m ready to meet my maker, I have no fear of death. In fact, my evangelistic zeal has only increased, especially as I see the fast approaching of the “Tribulation period” mentioned in the book of Revelation. Insofar as my acting career is concerned, I just finished filming a soliloquy featuring Melchior, one of the three Magi who followed the star to Christ lying in the manger, and am preparing to portray a Jewish Priest on stage. Like I said, God is working overtime in my life, and I will be appearing on stage singing Broadway show tunes sometime in March, so I have a lot of rehearsing to do. In the meantime, I will be signing Christmas carols acapella at a park here in Naples. Since it is a spontaneous th...
