Britain’s hesitation on lending a hand to the war against Iran reflects the atheist agenda we have elected to leadership.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer repeatedly points to ‘international law’ for his reluctance to allow the use of British air bases from which to launch military sorties, to which he has now agreed, with caveats.
And all this ‘law, law’ talk while presiding over a government in persistent rebellion against God’s laws – liberalising abortion, promoting gender confusion and much else.
Yet true to their atheism, they don’t feel obliged to obey the commands of a God they claim does not exist. And the results – as we can plainly see from our cowardly appeasement of wicked Iran and its evil proxies – is catastrophe! Despised even by our former allies.
We are reluctant to help the people who gave us the Ten Commandments, the Holy Bible and Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. For let’s face it, declaring war on Iran is all about defending Israel and the West.
The reason we can’t make sensible decisions based on wisdom that discerns the signs of the times is because we have left the ultimate Law – “I am the Lord your God… You shall have no other gods before me.” (Exodus 20:1-3) – out of the equation.
We are under the judgment of God as a result, and particularly because we have betrayed Israel by ‘recognising’ a Palestinian state which does not exist.
The consequences are too ghastly to contemplate. Our present ‘pacifism’ in the face of such a great evil defies belief. We are thus among the nations that refuse to serve Israel who, as the Bible says quite emphatically, will come to utter ruin. (Isaiah 60:12) That’s the reality of where we stand at this pivotal point in history.
The use of international law as an excuse not to intervene has been described as “a politically motivated, movable feast made up half the time by self-appointed courts comprising judges, far-Left academics and hardline antisemites drawn from some of the worst dictatorships and tyrannies on earth.”
Starmer is nevertheless unpopular within his own party, with rivals standing by to take his place, a scenario for which the Daily Mail, in its editorial, begs heaven’s help. We will definitely need that.
The Reform Party, which has been in remarkable ascendancy of late, is blighted by lack of experience in government. And the Green Party, which has just defeated Labour in a by-election, is ominously gaining momentum.
Talk about godlessness, they want to decriminalise prostitution and make pornography more accessible. And, to quote Nadine Dorries, a leading light of Reform, they are “ardently pro-Palestine and viscerally opposed to Israel.”
In her regular Daily Mail column, Nadine further claims that the Greens derive huge backing from young, white, feminist, women. And they are “voting for a party that, at the weekend, has been unequivocal in its support for a regime that has few equals in its oppression of, and cruelty towards, women.”
God, the Judge of all, is standing at the door. “He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples.” Yes, there will come a time when “they will beat their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.” (Isaiah 2:4)
Let us walk in the light of the Lord and look to him alone for our hope, peace and prosperity.
