This nation was founded upon the principle of "Freedom of Speech".
This was a response which this nation's founding fathers implemented to be a safe-guard from the same kind of oppression that went on for centuries in Europe in which freedom of speech was not allowed.
And this very critical component of this nation's liberty has survived for over two centuries now.
But nations rise and nations fall. And it is Satan's purpose to bring us back under totalitarian control.
And so, we are beginning to see a growing intolerance of freedom of speech.
Now of course, in this day and age, society cannot come right out and ban freedom of speech.
No, but rather, Satan has craftily worked in the shadows to enact seemingly good laws which supposedly help people by banning what has become known as "Hate Speech". Yes, in the name of "brotherly kindness", our governments are attempting to "protect" us by banning any speech deemed to be harmful in some way.
The problem is, just what is the definition of "Hate Speech"?
Here is a prophecy which is just now finding its fulfillment, as society begins to enact unjust laws which will ultimately be used to silence the true Gospel!
THE GOSPEL OFFENDS, SO GET RID OF IT!
Unfortunately, it appears that so-called, "Hate Speech", is probably going to eventually eliminate the true and unvarnished Word of God. In other words, because the Gospel of Christ offends many people, and even causes a few individuals to suffer supposed anxiety, the movement is now afoot to outlaw the Gospel from being publicly preached.
Even right now on the Internet, the major websites are already putting machinery in motion which will eventually ban any website that offends the general public.
And amazingly, a large segment of the population actually thinks this is a good idea! People have forgotten what happened in Europe during the Dark Ages. Schools do not teach this historical truth anymore to any significant degree.
Much of this anti-free-speech movement is spearheaded by a certain political party which once claimed to be the great defenders of freedom-of-speech.
But now, this same political party has become the greatest enemy of freedom of speech whenever that speech disagrees with their so-called "politically correct" agenda.
Well, the Good News is that those who realize that this great paradigm shift is actually Bible prophecy coming to fulfillment, can do something about it.
Oh no, don't expect some church-wide mass repentance to solve our problems!
Rather, true repentance and genuine spiritual restoration is something very personal and private! It starts in the heart of an individual who truly feels the burden of his or her soul, and begins to seek a deep abiding relationship with the Lord.
