Amid Wildfires, Blackouts & Lockdowns, California Launches Task Force to Study… Slavery Reparations

Blackouts, lockdowns, and wildfires make the perfect cover for California Gov. Gavin Newsom and the Democrats to advance their far-left agenda.

It looks like Newsom will sign just about any bill the Democratic supermajority in the state legislature puts on his desk. In recent weeks, Newsom has signed bills that remove automatic penalties for certain sex offenders and allow inmates to choose prison facilities based on their gender identities. On Wednesday, Newsom signed a bill establishing a task force to study slavery reparations. 

California is now the first state government to pass a law for the study and development of proposals for potential slavery reparations. According to the Associated Press, the nine-member task force will conduct a detailed study on the impact of slavery in the free state of California. The task force will then make recommendations to the state legislature by July 2023 as to the form of compensation to be awarded and who should be eligible to receive it. California is home to more than 2.2. million African-Americans, none of who were slaves in the U.S. 

The governor signed additional legislation on Wednesday, including a bill that eliminates so-called discrimination in jury selection.

“As a nation, we can only truly thrive when every one of us has the opportunity to thrive,” Gov. Newsom said in a statement. “Our painful history of slavery has evolved into structural racism and bias built into and permeating throughout our democratic and economic institutions. California’s rich diversity is our greatest asset, and we won’t turn away from this moment to make right the discrimination and disadvantages that Black Californians and people of color still face. While there is still so much work to do to unravel this legacy, these pieces of legislation are important steps in the right direction to building a more inclusive and equitable future for all.”

So there will still be more work to do even after slavery reparations are handed out. The far-left won’t be happy until they’ve completely dismantled our institutions, our government, and our way of life.

Today, we are witnessing people apologizing for sins they did not commit while furiously refusing to apologize or be ashamed for their own sins. We also see false accusations of systemic racism where there is none, causing unnecessary division and creating a begrudging between races.

What is crucial for us to understand is that all of this was prophesied in the Bible, as an indicator of the lateness of the hour and the soon return of Jesus Christ.

The Bible says that in the last days, there will be deception (2 Tim. 3:13), hatred of the truth (2 Tim. 3:8-9), the calling of good evil and evil good (Isaiah 5:20), and increased racial divisions (Matthew 24:7).

Matthew 24:7 KJV – “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”

The word in the above verse, “nation” comes from the Greek word “Ethnos,” where we get our English word for “ethnicity.” The can be read “ethnicity shall rise against ethnicity.”

A Baffling Deal: Are We To Suddenly Believe The Most Untrustworthy Regime On The Planet?

It's not hard to imagine what Iran's regime will do with a financial windfall of hundreds of billions of dollars. Again, they will lie low as much as they can until Trump leaves office, and then they will resume pouring those newfound billions into rebuilding their nuclear and missile programs and funding the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah. President Trump is no dummy. He knows what Iran's regime is all about, but it seems the economic factor loomed large here. He warned yesterday of a “global depression” if the Iran issue was not resolved soon.

Capitulating To A Vanquished Iranian Enemy?: The Good, The Bad, And The Unknown In The Memorandum of Understanding

Have you ever had a person in your life that you greatly admire and respect do something that completely shocks you, and not in a good way? Your heart breaks; you wonder what’s happened. How could this person do these things? It makes no sense! That is how I have felt these past few weeks as I’ve watched the actions taken by President Donald Trump. I love the man. He has done so much for my country, especially when it comes to how we’ve dealt with Gaza. But his recent decisions regarding Iran have left me baffled.

Jan Markell: You Can’t Have A Genuine Revival With False Doctrine Raging

I hear a dozen evangelists stating that we are on the verge of a great revival. One self-proclaimed prophet says that a billion souls will come to faith in the coming weeks and months. If my Rapture is imminent, how can there be an imminent revival? Which is it? The Bible does talk about a coming revival. The question concerns its timing. Is it in the coming days, or is it after the Rapture when the “left behind” world realizes they should have listened to believers like you and me, get a second chance, and multitudes come to faith?
