THE POLITICS OF FEAR THAT GRIPS THE THROAT OF A NATION..THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH"..

Many Christian believers are afraid, due to the uncertainties surrounding the issue of the afterlife. If a person becomes unsure of a thing, they begin to doubt; where doubt exists, fear creeps in to fill the void. One of the greatest fears most of us have is the loss of one’s life or that of a loved one.

Americans and those of other western nations possess a great deal of financial wealth and control much of material resources of the planet. The laws and politics, which govern the global economy, serve to protect the financial interests of those who control the wealth.

However, as a by-product, a great deal of insecurity develops within those who control the wealth. The rich fear losing the power, influence and control the wealth produces. Therefore, weapons are produced, walls are constructed to protect the treasures that an individual or nation values.

In their self-righteousness, the radical extreme fundamentalist groups within the body of the three major religions have sown the seeds of hate and discontent. Many shepherds have “fleeced” their flock and abusing their authority. Some are using the individual’s weaknesses to create fear for their own personal gain.

Some leaders foster an atmosphere of dependency to use their flock to live lavish lifestyles, erect temples, trophies, and monuments to revere and edify themselves, not God.
