June: The Holy Month of Pride

In late May, I started seeing news articles that declared June LGBTQ Pride Month. I thought this was a new thing, but it has actually been building up for a couple of decades. US President Bill Clinton was the person who got the ball rolling. In June 1999, he declared the anniversary of the Stonewall riots every June in America as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month. In 2009, President Barack Obama declared June LGBT Pride Month. On 1 June 2021, President Joe Biden issued an official presidential proclamation recognizing June as Pride Month.

Since about 80% of the population has no interest in these alternative sexual lifestyles, you might like to know who is financially backing this campaign. Three key main drivers are the largest investment firms of Black Rock, Vanguard, and State Street. These companies control $20 trillion in assets. When Joe Biden was VP, he secretly met with them, saying they have greater power than the Democratic party to advance Left-wing social agendas.

Since they sit on many boards, through their ownership of millions of company shares, they can force firms to adopt sexual diversity platforms. It doesn’t matter that sales were down that quarter. Activists want to know why the company doesn’t have any black lesbians in management.

If Freddie Mercury, Rock Hudson, and Liberace were still alive, they would likely be upset that the people managing their savings were fixated on sexual matters. A homosexual 20 years ago would think the only agenda with their investments should be focused on making them grow in value. It is actually illegal for CEOs to conduct transactions that will harm the value of a company. Their duty is to increase shareholder net worth, and they can be sued for failing in their duties.

The job of Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen should be to look after the nation’s economy. While major banks are failing and the danger of a national debt defect loomed closer, Yellen found time to host several LGBTQ events.

While federal agencies have been tripping over themselves to pledge allegiance to queer activism, they couldn’t be bothered to recognize the fallen troops who make our freedom possible. Despite a government-wide tweet-fest over Pride Month, most of them ignore Memorial Day altogether.

Not to be outdone, education officials decided to change their government seal to the “progress, pride” flag, paying special homage to transgenderism—while the Marines, Air Force, and Space Force hyped everything from rainbow bullets to astronauts “queering” the moon.

The Biden administration is operating under a demonic delusion that it is working to make the government more reflect the American people. At this stage, the left can only work to make the US look more like Sodom and Gomorrah.

They want to achieve diversity by hiring people who represent the rainbow flag. If they give a job to a transexual, they should then employ 100 straight guys. We could have 30% of an agency identify as queer, and it still wouldn’t be enough.

Elon Musk is a rare island of sanity on most issues. He celebrated the first day of pride month by promising to lobby against child genital mutilation. “This is a major problem. I will be actively lobbying to criminalize making severe, irreversible changes to children below the age of consent. Shame on those who advocate this! It is utterly contemptible,” he said.

I have no personal issues with gay people. If they think God endorses their lifestyle, that’s between them and their creator. The problem comes when they demand that everyone endorse their sexual practices. Colorado baker Jack Phillips has lost two major cases because he refuses to bake a cake with a homosexual theme.

No one should be forced to create something that violates their fundamental beliefs. It would be crazy to think that a Nazi could go into a Jewish bakery and demand that they make him a cake that looks like the crematoria at Auschwitz. Christians can be compelled to violate God’s law because the promotion of evil is one of Satan’s highest priorities.

It just shows how far America has fallen when we have a whole month dedicated to celebrating sexual immorality. Soon every day will be Pride Day. The Bible warns that when a society is at a certain stage of perversion, he will lift his hand of protection, and it will die of self-destruction.

“Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error” (Romans 1:24-27 NIV).

The Last Minute

My friend JD Farag presented a most intriguing message in the video he gave the title “The Last Hour.” He listed the reasons he believed that this generation upon Planet Earth has entered into the final hour before God begins to judge, as foretold about the Tribulation (Daniel’s seventieth week).

He gave the following:

1. Advanced technology.
2. Man’s survivability.
3. Deception spiritually.

Regarding technology, he indicated that Daniel chapter 12 verse 4 is in view. Knowledge is increasing exponentially –in fact, it has advanced to the point that it likely can advance no further without surpassing what he believes God’s prophetic word has given –that is, will allow– for mankind to endure during that last 7 years before Christ’s Second Advent.

Take AI (Artificial intelligence), for example. Even those responsible for producing it are expressing fear that it is becoming increasingly dangerous to mankind. Man, they fear, is about to lose control over his own existence and destiny.

Additionally, the 9/11 attack and its aftermath have ratcheted up the movement into mankind’s enslavement through technological developments created under the Patriot Act and other surveillance and control methodologies. Add to these developments, the vaccine mandates spinning from the supposed COVID pandemic, and the observer of Bible prophecy from the preTrib, preMillennial view can’t do otherwise than surmise this is the final hour of the dispensation of Grace.

With respect to JD Farag’s second indicator of this being the final hour –man’s survivability— Satan’s obvious hatred of God’s creation called man is front and center. The Luciferian plan is to, as said about that roaring lion he is likened to, enslave then destroy as much of humanity as possible. Farag believes the vaccine and its deleterious effects on the health of mankind are included in the devilish blueprint. Also, things going on in working toward poisoning the air and water of the planet, he believes, are being employed by Satan’s henchmen forces.

I, too, believe the pandemic was introduced by other dimensional forces to hasten the Antichrist’s regime development. The Great Reset is a big part of this blueprint, in my view.

JD’s number 3 indicator of this being the last hour of the Church Age (Age of Grace) is the spiritual deception that has overwhelmed mankind just in recent days. He says that 2 Thessalonians 2: 9-12 is at play in these closing days of the age. He says we are in a generation that delights in wickedness. Delusion and deception have been supernaturally imposed in the sense Jesus foretold while answering the disciples’ questions during the Olivet Discourse. Deception and deceivers, the Lord foretold, as the first sign of the last of the last days.

Farag said the Antichrist spirit prevalent in the world, and even to an extent in the church, shows dramatically that the Antichrist is alive today and already behind the scenes. He believes this could be the main determining factor in this being the last hour.

I am in agreement with my good friend’s assessment, with the possible exception of this present time being the last hour. I am convinced this is rather the last minute of this age when the Rapture will indeed bring a Reset to Planet Earth.

And I view the things he mentions as indicators of this being the last hour, while accurate and even most insightful, a bit different from my own view of the most significant signal that we are in the final minute, even perhaps the final seconds of this Age of Grace.

The reason I view the time left before the Rapture in terms of minutes, or even seconds, as opposed to in an hour, is based, as I have pointed to for weeks of the recent past, on the most profound prophecy given by the Lord Jesus.

Society and culture, particularly in this nation, reflect in mirror-like clarity the days of Lot in Sodom. I believe His Word on how things will be cannot be topped, that is, elevated above… He has the Final Word for the Final minutes of this Age of Grace.

I listen to the radio show host Chris Plante some mornings, and he sometimes says that everyone is asking: “What is happening, and why is it happening so fast?” By that, he means the insane coarsening of the culture –of society—has and continues to happen at a frantic pace. No one seems to understand any of it.

Jesus, of course, understood. All we have to do is consider His most profound prophecy, thus to understand what is happening and why it is happening so fast.

We are in the time –the final minute, perhaps even in the final seconds of this time just before the Rapture of the church when Jesus intervenes into the evil wickedness of mankind. We are in the time like it was in Sodom and Gomorrah.

My belief that proof of this present time being the final minute of the age is discernable by those who understand, from Christ’s Words, what is happening in the area of homosexuality and all sorts of such aberrant activity going on all around us. Particularly, that there is a Satanic assault on the youngest of children and even babies in the womb reveals the concentration of destructive hatred for humanity the minions of Ephesians 6: 12 harbor and are working feverishly to carry out at this crucial moment.

I thought to insert a news story here in this commentary about all the LGTQ-plus craziness being perpetrated or the transgender madness going on. But it isn’t necessary to do so. You and I are confronted with it every moment of our day in these times. The stories of the insane assaults on our society and culture are with us constantly.

We are in the midst of Gay Pride Month. Need more be said? Thereby we know Jesus must be about to Hear the Father say, “ENOUGH! Go get my children.”

“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed” (Luke 17:28-30).
