My Prediction - a hard left turn

MY PREDICTION: This is both spiritual and political. It is NOT a prophecy or anything like that. It is my GUESS about the near future of the USA -- and believe me, I hope I'm wrong.

The backlash of the progressives and leftists since Trump's election has been astounding, and sometimes violent. The vitriol is shocking. Even semi-conservative principles have been deemed completely unacceptable, even worthy of death. The shooting of a US Congressman by a Bernie supporter, and the deadly attacks on law enforcement are representative of an extremely intolerant attitude of many liberals. A celebrity holding up a fake severed and bloodied Trump head is merely an indication of what is in the heart of many leftists. Riots in the streets (by leftists and right-wing extremists), often violent, would have been unthinkable on American soil in the not-too-distant past, but now they are almost commonplace.  Corporations will increasingly lead the charge left, and any company seen as conservative will be vilified and possibly put out of business.

Eventually, Trump will be out of office, and the Senate (and maybe even the House) will fall to Democratic control. The progressives are hopping mad, and they'll make a mad scramble to "set things right", I mean, "left".  Note that many leftists are some of the most intolerant people around -- they only tolerate people that share their opinions, and woe to those who disagree!


My prediction: watch for a hard left turn. Very hard left. I don't know if it will be in 4, 8, or 12 or more years, but I think it is coming. It seems that in recent decades, Republicans get control and take a few small steps in the right direction, but then Democrats get control and take many major strides in the wrong direction. The next Democratic President, if he/she gets a Democratic Senate, will take this country quickly and far to the left. The House, if still Republican, will be vilified, ignored, and beaten into submission, including more attempted murders, some of which will be successful.

The results? Religious rights will be stifled, including an attack on the 1st Amendment, limiting what Christians are "allowed" to say, with a chilling effect on public evangelism. 2nd Amendment rights, though they have been increased in recent years, may take major steps backward, or possibly the 2nd Amendment will simply be ignored completely. Yes, many on the left want to severely restrict or confiscate your guns -- though few of them will admit it now. Taxation would go up, of course, and immorality and perversion will be applauded even more heartily (Romans 1). "Red" states will be threatened by the Feds and be forced to comply as much as they can get away with. If the Supreme Court has even a hint of conservative control, watch for resignations (perhaps threats to family, which we'll never know about) or even murders of conservative Justices. (It is even possible we've had one of those already, Scalia being the victim.)

I truly hope I'm wrong, but I won't be surprised if some of these things come to pass. This is only my temporary home anyway, and yes, the world is hell-bent on creating a hell on earth, which they will get eventually. I look for a city whose Maker is God, where there will be no sin, no crying, and no pain. Perhaps it will be here soon. Until then, stand firm in the faith, looking to Christ, for He will come again some day.
