Things too great for me: from whence cometh my help?

 

Let us consider what it is wise to do when we are being confronted with things that are beyond our capacity to understand and our ability to deal with effectively. Allow me to read the Words of Agur from the book of Proverbs Chapter 30 (NASB) as the backdrop for today’s discussion on restoring sanity to a world captured by delusions and falsehoods:

1 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, the oracle.

The man declares to Ithiel, to Ithiel and Ucal:

2 Surely I am more stupid than any man,

And I do not have the understanding of a man.

3 Neither have I learned wisdom,

Nor do I have the knowledge of the Holy One.

4 Who has ascended into heaven and descended?

Who has gathered the wind in His fists?

Who has wrapped the waters in His garment?

Who has established all the ends of the earth?

What is His name or His son’s name?

Surely you know!

5 Every word of God is tested;

He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.

6 Do not add to His words

Or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar.

7 Two things I asked of You,

Do not refuse me before I die:

8 Keep deception and lies far from me,

Give me neither poverty nor riches;

Feed me with the food that is my portion,

9 That I not be full and deny You and say, “Who is the Lord?”

Or that I not be in want and steal,

And profane the name of my God.

10 Do not slander a slave to his master,

Or he will curse you and you will be found guilty.

11 There is a kind of man who curses his father

And does not bless his mother.

12 There is a kind who is pure in his own eyes,

Yet is not washed from his filthiness.

13 There is a kind—oh how lofty are his eyes!

And his eyelids are raised in arrogance.

14 There is a kind of man whose teeth are like swords

And his jaw teeth like knives,

To devour the afflicted from the earth

And the needy from among men.

15 The leech has two daughters,

“Give,” “Give.”

There are three things that will not be satisfied,

Four that will not say, “Enough”:

16 Sheol, and the barren womb,

Earth that is never satisfied with water,

And fire that never says, “Enough.”

17 The eye that mocks a father

And scorns a mother,

The ravens of the valley will pick it out,

And the young eagles will eat it.

18 There are three things which are too wonderful for me,

Four which I do not understand:

19 The way of an eagle in the sky,

The way of a serpent on a rock,

The way of a ship in the middle of the sea,

And the way of a man with a maid.

20 This is the way of an adulterous woman:

She eats and wipes her mouth,

And says, “I have done no wrong.”

21 Under three things the earth quakes,

And under four, it cannot bear up:

22 Under a slave when he becomes king,

And a fool when he is satisfied with food,

23 Under an unloved woman when she gets a husband,

And a maidservant when she supplants her mistress.

24 Four things are small on the earth,

But they are exceedingly wise:

25 The ants are not a strong people,

But they prepare their food in the summer;

26 The shephanim are not mighty people,

Yet they make their houses in the rocks;

27 The locusts have no king,

Yet all of them go out in ranks;

28 The lizard you may grasp with the hands,

Yet it is in kings’ palaces.

29 There are three things which are stately in their march,

Even four which are stately when they walk:

30 The lion which is mighty among beasts

And does not retreat before any,

31 The strutting rooster, the male goat also,

And a king when his army is with him.

32 If you have been foolish in exalting yourself

Or if you have plotted evil, put your hand on your mouth.

33 For the [m]churning of milk produces butter,

And pressing the nose brings forth blood;

So the churning of anger produces strife.

Agur, was the son of Jakeh, and is mentioned in the Bible as the originator of the wisdom found in Proverbs 30. The name "Agur" translates to the word "gathered", and his father's name, “Jakeh”, means "pious" or "carefully religious". There is a possibility that Jakeh was from an Ishmaelite tribe.

Agur's insights in Proverbs 30 serve as an illustration of the ways of man versus the wisdom of God. He expresses deep humility at the outset of his verses, and acknowledges that true wisdom can only come from God. His sayings in Proverbs 30 give us insight into the man because God used Agur to pen an entire chapter in the Bible.

However, it's important to note that we know very little about Agur and Jakeh outside of Proverbs 30:1. Some interpretations suggest that the names and words following Agur in Proverbs 30:1 are epithets of King Solomon himself.

So, to today’s point. Yesterday Anne-Siri, Solskinn, and I went downtown to investigate the two-year anniversary protest of the Emergency Measures Act being enacted by the Marxofascist political misfits here in Ottawa. The suspending of habeas corpus and the Rule of Law was declared unconstitutional and therefore illegal by the courts. We saw many waving let's go "fa coff" flags inviting Trudeau to join them at Tim Hortons "fa coff" (the flag bearers must be Italian because they love to get together "fa coff"). We heard chants of "Trudeau must go", and shouts of “freedom”! I saw folks carrying signs which read “Leave our kids alone!” I even spoke with a PPC supporter carrying a "stop the genocide in Gaza" poster who claimed to be a Christian since Christianity owes no debt to Judaism in the eyes of that man’s delusional version of Godly faith. I heard a speech in front of Parliament where the speaker promised that Muslims and Christians would unite to free Canada from oppression, just like they've always done when Muslims and Christians united for peace, which ain't never happened. Basically, I saw desperate people who really did not know how to achieve their goals but were certain if they chanted loud and long enough that magically the totalizing enterprise of global Marxofascism would just wither away and die on a vine that has not yet born the fullness of its totalizing fruit!

It made me sad to see people so hopeful when they simply were unable to define the nature of the devilish spirit that they are ostensibly fighting. Moreover, that they could share no concerted plan as to how they intend to restore limited constitutional government under the Rule of Law. My most oft repeated admonition is that there cannot be a political solution to a moral, philosophical, and spiritual crisis. It is my opinion that the struggle to free us from the totalizing spirit of our time may well cost much spilt blood before the prevailing Zeitgeist is exchanged for yet another oppressive force of illiberal tyranny after the next pendulum swing toward authoritarianism.

Not a single politician was present to speak with the protesters to hear their concerns to address them. If this had been a pride parade with children exposed to perversions such as "pin the clit on the vulva" or the ever popular "dildo ring toss" game, then the entire deviant political class would have been there waving rainbow flags in approbation of wicked degeneration. Ottawa has become a Godless excuse for a national capital.

But there is something far worse, I did not see a single Christian Church leader, nor did I see any believers gathered to lead the disaffected in prayer. Several times over these past few years I have reached out to Church leaders to assist them in developing speaking series geared at exposing the foremost ideological possession of our time. Each time I have offered, my offers have been dismissed as though the prevailing Zeitgeist of WOKE Marxofascism is not the direct result of the Satanic lies being disseminated in the Academy and in turn propagated in every political, bureaucratic, and cultural institution whose former function was to defend our faith, our families, and our property.

I will finish today by inviting you to watch an interview between Jordan B Peterson and Doctor Oz shot in Doctor Peterson’s Toronto home on developing the necessary courage and wisdom to challenge the prevailing mindset of the social collective if said mindset has become toxic. If what we are currently witnessing in Canada’s illiberal and authoritarian “crap-it-all” isn’t toxic, then I do not know what is! The social collective and mass psychosis go hand in glove. If you are incapable of thinking for yourself the ever-present danger of being swept away by the type of madness that gripped pre-war Germany, the Bolshevik Revolution, Mao's Cultural Revolution, or the present WOKE madness of "Just-In" Trudeau whose minority government has a vice-like grip on Canada is undeniable. The fact that some of my family and a few of my former friends will no longer speak with me because of my opposition to this madness is proof. Add to that the fact that our government can refuse to answer for its corruption and that the public goes along with it is further proof we have arrived at mass psychosis.

This problem is too great for me. This type of demonic ideation will only come out with much prayer and fasting from all the people of God who said, AMEN!
