Kill the truth, they will [II Chron 24]

A bit of context here. Jehoida was a priest who hid the last prince of Israel, and then performed a coup d’etat to remove Athalaha, the female tyrant who had killed all of the house of David but one infant her mother had rescued. He had renewed the covenant with God. He had raised the king.

But when he died, and his influence was not there, the Princes of Judah re entered. They wanted the pagan ways back. And that happened”: the prophet sent to warn was killed.

This is the Zechariah who Christ said would rise up and damn his listeners, because someone greater than he was here and they were not listening either.

Now after the death of Jehoiada the princes of Judah came and paid homage to the king. Then the king listened to them. And they abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols. And wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs. Yet he sent prophets among them to bring them back to the LORD. These testified against them, but they would not pay attention.

Then the Spirit of God clothed Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, and he stood above the people, and said to them, “Thus says God, ‘Why do you break the commandments of the LORD, so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has forsaken you.’” But they conspired against him, and by command of the king they stoned him with stones in the court of the house of the LORD. Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness that Jehoiada, Zechariah’s father, had shown him, but killed his son. And when he was dying, he said, “May the LORD see and avenge!”

(2 Chronicles 24:17-22 ESV)

The first casualty is truth. When evil takes over, there is no tolerance of plain speaking. There must be agreement. The micro-regulation must include your thoughts, your language, your actions. If they do not, the elite will get their useful idiots to point, shriek and protest.

And when people say that we must return to a way that is better… it will not be publicized. Instead you will have your place taken and your voice silenced. It matters not if this affects production.

If you are an investor, the day that a company hire people for their diversity programme while sacking engineers is the day you sell their stock. For the company has but one purpose: to make a profit, by making and selling things. Work is not a social welfare system. It is a means by which we provide for our families and care for our elders.

But there is one more thing to add. As parents, we can lead well, pray, and influence. But the next generation will make their choices. The elite will attempt to corrupt them. THere are many petty kings in this world, and they are now forcing us to bend to their will.

Via Dalrock.

An Italian court has ordered a middle-aged father to keep supporting his 28-year-old son through university, after he turned to the law to try and force his offspring to get a job.

The case underlines the country’s problem with “bamboccioni” – spoilt “big babies” who refuse to leave home and instead sponge off their parents.

The father had gone to court to argue that he should no longer be obliged to support his son, challenging one of the conditions of his divorce settlement, which had ruled that he must pay for the young man’s tertiary education.

The son completed a degree in literature, taking several years longer than expected to finish the course, and has now enrolled on a post-graduate course in experimental cinema in Bologna.

His father, who makes a modest living through writing, argued that his son should get a part-time job and start paying his own way.

“He does not deserve any further financial support, having made no effort to find work to support himself,” he told the court.

But the civil court in Modena, northern Italy, ruled that the cinema course is in keeping with the son’s “personal aspirations” and must be paid for by his father.

Neither has been named because of confidentiality policies.

The elite will try to force us to support our children even if they are deliberately ruining themselves. Because that is where they want the narrative to be. They want their Asherah, or at least the orgies that were part of the worship: they want their Ba’Al: they accept Topeth and child sacrifice.

And we need to still guide our children, using their narrative as a warning.

And to pray that the elite will not have success in corrupting the next generation. For they have not merely ruined corporations, but universities, hospitals, and the military.

And they call this good.

But God will hold us all to account. Do not be them. Do not be like them.
