For all those who believe that it is impossible for the United States to experience a coup d’ etat, you must suspend your disbelief. It is ongoing and it is happening. In fact, the coup-makers are attacking everything from the traditional way of life that made this country God-fearing, and consequently, great. They attack goodness by employing a Proverbs 17:15 abomination of justifying the wicked and condemning the just. The media is on their side. The power of the deep state is on their side. In short, the principalities, the powers, the rulers of darkness and spiritual wickedness are on their side. They seek to overcome good with evil. Just look at their platform that normalizes all kinds of sins. Suspend your disbelief.

Washington Post columnist Robert Knight exposes the plan of the coup-makers in his latest column, “How Democrats try to make elections obsolete.” Knight writes, “With a fraudulent Russian collusion claim no longer in their hip pocket, Democrats are still optimistic about recapturing the White House and the U.S. Senate in 2020. But they are tired of competing. To ensure the desired outcome, they’ve proposed steps that would finish off the national, two-party system for all intents and purposes. First, they oppose any efforts to strengthen the border and reduce illegal immigration. They want to ensure a massive flow of undocumented Democrats and recruits for the Free Stuff Army.

“Next, they propose doing away with the Electoral College, since it sunk Hillary Clinton in 2016…without the Electoral College, a Democrat would have to campaign only in California and New York. The rest of the country? Who cares? Next, the Democrats, on a party-line vote, actually passed a law in the House nationalizing elections and weakening electoral safeguards, such as voter ID laws and state statutes that require keeping voter rolls up to date. The communist-sounding For the People Act (HR 1) is a breathtaking attack on election integrity.” Knight points out that this law imposes mandatory automatic voter registration, same-day voter registration, no-fault absentee balloting and early voting, as well as politicizing the Federal Elections Commission, forces taxpayer subsidization of political campaigns, and regulates political speech.

While this law will not pass the Republican-controlled Senate, it places a stake in the ground, a line in the sand, to move America into a communistic paradigm. This is the long-term insurance against another President like Donald Trump. It is their standard of “democracy,” which is the recipe for bondage and tyranny-the completion of the coup.  By what standard do we measure? It is not the coup-makers’ standard, but a higher standard of the Lord and his Word. The Lord’s standard is perfect liberty in Christ. We need to see these things clearly and call them out as in Isaiah 5:20: “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Suspend your disbelief.
