President Barack Obama; “How do I consequence you? Let me count the ways.” Elizabeth Barrett Browning could have had a field day with this one. The list of negative consequential actions never stops. When push comes to shove, there is no love lost between Obama, the Constitution, Congress, and even the Supreme Court, as Obama reprises the 1950 song, “Anything you can do, I can do better,” from “Annie Get Your Gun” starring Betty Hutton and Howard Keel. Obama argues he can do it better than the Constitution as the Constitution is flawed, not having addressed income inequality, while Obama wanted to “Spread the Wealth around.”

Not to worry as Obama threatens, no, promises, as he has already countermanded the Founders; “I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone; and I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward.”

Pope Francis is the supreme leader among leaders, so when Francis responds to the question of homosexuality, “Who am I to judge?” Francis was wrong in that from the beginning before Jesus ascended to leave this earth, Jesus instructed, “Whomsoevers sins you forgive; They are forgiven; Whomsoever sins you retain; They are retained.” Jesus gave an absolute command that could not be followed without a judgment having been made.

Francis was wrong in his denial, not only of the right, to judge, but the Messianic obligation to judge, including weak-kneed enabling bishops to protecting clergy who abuse their positions of trust to sexually prey upon young boys.

U.S. leader President Barack Obama, supreme in his own mind, uses his position as Chief Executive and Commander in Chief of the United States of America, takes it upon himself to cast judgmental threats to leaders around the world, the current one against Ukraine for its handling of revolutionary violence.

Obama has not only threatened the leaders of Egypt and Libya, but instrumental in their ouster, as he threatened them by name and saying, “You must go now;” and so after unauthorized U.S. military interference, it came to be.

Syria came under threat as well, but the hand of Obama was called by Russian Leader Vladimir Putin who effectively castled Obama, publicly neutering him politically on the World Stage, tying his hands leaving Obama gasping for political air.

Authoritarian regimes worldwide wage violent war against protesters and dissidents, and Obama takes to his podium, casting his two cents worth, full value, on the Ukraine revolution that threatens intervention by Russia. Obama responded with a bland meaningless statement, “He and other Western leaders would do whatever we can to support a peaceful resolution.” This was followed by his usual threat, “There will be consequences.” Interesting choice of words, Obama admitting there are consequences for unlawful acts.

“Thy own mouth shall condemn thee, and not I: and thy own lips shall answer thee” is a Biblical admonition that should concern everyone, and send chills up and down the spines of dictatorial world leaders, including that of the anointed one. If world leaders were as wise as they claim to be strong, they would quake in their boots at the thought of eternal consequences for their brutal treatment of their own peoples, and consider purchasing “Next-Life Insurance.”

Humans are the only earthly life form having need for insurance, including medical, hospital, surgical, life, home, mortgage, flood, auto, personal liability, personal property; and the list goes on and on.

Why do people feel the need for life insurance? Is human life that valuable as to have the need to have it insured? If life is that valuable, humans, being the only earthly animal form of life to have need for it, why then is human life trashed and killed, particularly developing human life in the womb?

Matthew 7 warns and advises judgment, discerning the good fruit from the bad fruit, and perpetrators: “15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? 17 In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will know them by their fruits.”
