They target your emotions to keep you engaged on their site so their advertisers can drop more ads. These platforms exist to enrich their stockholders.

“Evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse” (2 Timothy 3:13). We are now living in a hedonistic and materialistic society. People are lovers of themselves—“looking out for number one”—and doing what is right in their own eyes. All these things and many more can be seen around us every day (see 2 Timothy 3:1–4).

Update: 7 PM EST – At least four people were arrested during Saturday’s protest and counter-protest, according to Lt. Tina Jones of the Portland Police Bureau, while one person was taken to the hospital with unspecified injuries according to NBC News

And while we’re not sure if this is the person, or if the cop did it as described in the tweet below – at least one Antifa appears to have had their head cracked.

A police officer threw someone to the ground, splitting their head open. The police were on their way towards clearing an offramp where antifascists were blocking the roadway where busses of fascists were trying to get through. #defendpdx

The very liberal Andy Lassner – the producer of the Ellen show, had some angry words for members of Antifa: 

andy lassner@andylassner

Hey Antifa, whoever you are, how about you cut it the fuck out?

You’re putting millions and millions of us in a position where the right wants us to defend something we want no part of.

You don’t represent me.

“I didn’t come to talk, I came to bring it out.” Things are getting tense at the Antifa protest. Someone hit a man’s microphone to the ground.

I recognize this shirtless man from Seattle last year at another Antifa protest. He came up to me and said, “Death is coming.”2,6981:18 PM – Aug 17, 2019Twitter Ads info and privacy2,408 people are talking about this

Portland, Oregon is preparing for more violence between the right-wing group Proud Boys and leftists from Antifa – a group of black-clad left-wing extremists who have instigated several bloody brawls with conservatives. Source

Police learned of the unlicensed protest and the Antifa counter-protest by monitoring social media, according to NBC News, which notes that based on what has been observed, there is concern over possible violence (where masked 100lb basement-dwelling Antifa soy boys get knocked into the next dimension). 

In recent years, Portland has become a magnet for protests, some of them turning ugly. Several groups from the far-left and far-right said they will converge in the city’s downtown. Police said its nearly 1,000 member force will be on duty.

We recognize these events can cause alarm, anxiety and even fear for certain members of our community,” said Lieutenant Tina Jones. –NBC News

In a Saturday tweet, President Trump put Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler on notice. 

“Major consideration is being given to naming ANTIFA an “ORGANIZATION OF TERROR.” Portland is being watched very closely. Hopefully, the Mayor will be able to properly do his job!”

“I think they come to Portland because it gives them a platform,” said Wheeler of why right-wing groups are protesting in Portland. “They know that if they come here the conflict is almost guaranteed.”

In 2017, a riot between the groups left the city with shattered windows and other property destruction.

“It’s sad to me because I think that a lot of people that come here to protest don’t actually live here or share a lot of values that I believe Portland stands for,” said resident Drew Edwards. 

The FBI will be on the scene out of an abundance of caution, reports NBC

The Bible prophesies of many events that will occur in the end times. These events can be categorized as natural signs, spiritual signs, sociological signs, technological signs, and political signs. We can look to what the Bible says about these things, and, if the signs are present in abundance, we can be certain that we are, in fact, living in the end times.

Luke 21:11 lists some of the natural signs that will occur before Jesus’ second coming: “There will be great earthquakes, famines, and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.” While we shouldn’t interpret every natural disaster as a sign of the end times, an increase in natural disasters seems to be a warm-up to what is coming next—“birth pangs,” as Jesus called them (Matthew 24:8).

The people spreading concrete information on the dangers of globalism are accomplishing far more than those sitting around buying bitcoin or passing around Q-cult nonsense.

Jesus chastised religious leaders in the first century for not knowing the time of His arrival. Will we make the same mistake today? Christ stated how His second coming would be preceded by global events signifying the end of our age. We may not know the day or the hour, but we can know the season!

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.” (Joel 2:28.)

Education is useless without the bible (Daniel Webster)

“Courage is as “fear that has said its prayers.”

John Wesley who said that what we tolerate in our generation, will be embraced by the next. Wesley is 100% correct! We are living in sick times.

Usually, the Lord doth no great thing for or against his people, without giving warning of it before it comes.

They perverted justice among themselves (v. 7): “You turn judgment to wormwood, that is, you make your administrations of justice bitter and nauseous, and highly displeasing both to God and man.’’ That fruit has become a weed, a weed in the garden; as nothing is more venerable, nothing more valuable, than justice duly administered, so nothing is more hurtful, nothing more abominable, than designedly doing wrong under color and pretense of doing right. Corruptio optimi est pessima —The best, when corrupted, becomes the worst.

It is impossible to find anyone in the Bible who was a power for God who did not have enemies and was not hated.

2 Corinthians 4:8-11 New King James Version (NKJV)
8 We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— 10 always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. 11 For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
