God's Kingdom vs the Neocons

The neocons who controlled America’s foreign policy are a militant group that pushes for war wherever it may be found in order to establish the so-called “American Empire.” The movement derived many of their political views and strategy from Leo Strauss, a professor of political science at the University of Chicago.

Leo Strauss (/straʊs/,^[31] German: [ˈleːoː ˈʃtʁaʊs];^[32][33] September 20, 1899 – October 18, 1973) was a German-American political philosopher who specialized in classical political philosophy. Born in Germany to Jewish parents, Strauss later emigrated from Germany to the United States. He spent much of his career as a professor of political science at the University of Chicago, where he taught several generations of students and published fifteen books.^[34]

This neocon movement turned the Republican Party into what I have called “The War Party,” even as others made the Democratic Party “The Whore Party.”

But times have changed. When Donald Trump captured the majority of the Republican Party in 2016, and then the presidency itself, the wars ceased. He was the only president in recent decades to start no new wars. So the Democratic Party had to take up the mantle of the War Party, supported by those RINO Republican politicians who opposed Trump.

The philosophical lines have been redrawn as the political parties have shifted. That is the situation in which we find ourselves today.

So we see now the Democratic Party pushing the war strategy against Russia in the Ukraine conflict. Traditionally, this would have been the role of the Republican Party. And now that Ukraine is clearly losing more and more territory, the neocons are using Ukrainians to try to weaken Russia, hoping to break up Russia and thereby dominate Asia.

So the neocons pushed for Ukraine to join NATO, in order to force Russia into a war. They knew that Russia would not tolerate this final violation of the Minsk Accords. The neocon strategy was to induce Russia to attack Ukraine, and then use the mainstream media to cause a great outcry about the “unprovoked Russian invasion of Ukraine.” America has become quite skilled at provoking wars and then claiming to have clean hands and a pure heart.

But that strategy using Ukraine is clearly failing, the neocons are now trying to spark a war with China, in the guise of “standing with Taiwan.” I have no love for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), but the Bidenista policy is stirring up a war unnecessarily, and Nancy Pelosi is being sent to Asia to spark that war.

Hong Kong/Beijing/Taipei (CNN)US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's possible visit to Taiwan has resulted in stern warnings from Beijing and mounting concerns in Washington.

Though the California Democrat has so far declined to confirm the trip publicly, she has invited both Democrats and Republicans to accompany her.

China has lashed out at the potential visit, vowing to take "resolute and forceful measures" if the trip goes ahead. This week, China's Defense Ministry reiterated the threat, warning: "If the US insists on taking its own course, the Chinese military will never sit idly by."

US officials are worried that the reported visit would be met with a military response from China, potentially triggering the worst cross-strait crisis in decades.

The tensions provided the backdrop for a lengthy phone call between US President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping on Thursday, in which Xi warned the US not to "play with fire" on the Taiwan issue -- though neither side confirmed if Pelosi's reported plans were discussed. Preparation for the call predated reports of the possible trip.

Just as Ukraine’s threat to join NATO was an existential threat which the Russians could not tolerate, so also is Taiwan independence an issue that China cannot tolerate. In other words, the neocons know exactly what issues to push that will spark wars, and they are doing so. We need to understand what they are doing, so that we do not end up inadvertently being used to support such ungodly warmongers.

We ourselves are supporters of God’s Kingdom and the strategies given to us by the Holy Spirit. It is our destiny to “reign with Christ” (Revelation 20:6) after the fall of the beast empires. On a personal level, we should always reign in life, subduing the flesh and taking every thought into captivity. But in the end, God’s Kingdom will also take territory and translate into the political arena. It will replace the laws of men with the laws of God, and citizenship in God’s Kingdom will be limited to those who have faith in Christ.

This is what is soon coming as the present age closes.

God knows how to bring peace to the earth—and it is not by force or by military might. It is by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, which will turn many of His present-day enemies into friends. In the end, we will see Isaiah 2:2, 3 fulfilled,

² Now it will come about that in the last days the mountain [kingdom] of the house of the Lord will be established as the chief of the mountains [kingdoms], and will be raised above the hills [smaller nations], and all the nations will stream to it. ³ And many peoples will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, that He may teach us concerning His ways and that we may walk in His paths.” For the law will go forth from Zion [now Sion] and the word of the Lord from [New] Jerusalem.
