Welcome to my show!
Welcome to my show!
Hi and welcome to another episode of Just Informed News.
I'm your host Craig.
Thanks for joining me.
We have a lot to cover here today and we're going to jump right into it.
You guys know that's what you can expect here on this show.
We dive right into the news, then we talk about scripture and that's it.
But really quick today, just a special announcement.
Actually two special announcements.
First of all, if you guys don't know, I have just launched the beta version, let's call it, of my new website that I'm developing right now and trying to get off the ground called informednews.com.
If you guys haven't tried this website out, I've put it out a little bit and you haven't seen it yet, go give it a shot.
Let me know what you think.
It's going to get better.
I'm going to keep adding more and more features.
And this is just kind of the first concept.
I wanted something very simple where people go to get news that they wouldn't get anywhere else normally.
So what you're going to do is you just come here, you scroll down, the news is always being updated.
So you always get the newest articles and then there'll be content that's produced by myself that I'll be posting regularly, different articles and videos and other things that if you want to go check out, you can.
So, please check out informed news and information.
One other announcement, the JustInformed vlog is on YouTube.
If you guys aren't aware, you know, everything that went down with YouTube, I lost the main channel.
This is what's left.
If you guys can go support this channel, go check it out.
I just did the latest vlog reviewing the Freedom Phone.
I actually bought it.
If you guys want to know what it's like, go watch this video.
Give it a like.
Give it a share.
Help me get some more traffic over here.
Try to rebuild something, you know, so hopefully we'll see how long that lasts, right?
All the political stuff, though, is over here, and this is, if you want to see kind of what I'm doing when I'm not doing the vlog or the podcasting, what I'm doing in my, you know, town and city, there's different things.
There's hiking with the dogs, golfing, there's swimming, and there's now an iPhone review.
I'll try to post at minimum posting here once a week, but I'm going to try to up that posting schedule to be more than once a week going into the future.
So those are the two big announcements I have here on this beautiful Monday, and if you guys don't mind, We're good to go.
It's working functionally now as a good news website.
If you want to just click over there, you can just scroll down and you get a good idea of what the major headlines are for the day.
So go check that out.
Now, let's get into the first story.
The first story here, special counsel clarification reveals the DOG's inspector general is not a team player.
Well, I think that's kind of an understatement, but what are we talking about here?
There's the special counsel investigation that was put together to investigate the investigators by John Durham.
He was appointed by William Barr after the entire Russia hoax played itself out.
And we realized, very quickly we realized, but the mainstream media and the rest of the establishment realized that it was all a big setup.
The DNC had paid their lawyers to go to the FBI and basically frame Trump for something they didn't do.
They actually, in this case, A particular set of the investigations talking about an attorney named Michael Sussman, who was representing the Hillary Clinton campaign, who was a part of an effort to go to the FBI to present evidence of wrongdoing.
To the FBI and start the whole investigation into President Trump.
This is a part of a broader investigation with many indictments coming down.
There's many different facets to it all and it's very complex.
So to simplify it in terms of what's happening with this latest update.
Well apparently there's a clarification for what was put out not too long ago.
There was a Issued a statement here, a discovery update.
Excuse me, I was trying to think of the term.
Discovery update was put out on January 25th, and there wasn't much in there aside from the fact that it seems this Michael Sussman was working in tandem with another individual who is named here, and his name is Je...
Excuse me.
Rodney Joff.
And Rodney Joff, who apparently is this individual here, was tech executive one in this Durham indictment.
And a part of the indictment basically says that this guy is an entrepreneur, pioneer of IP addresses and cloud service stuff and that kind of thing.
Big tech guy.
Really rich.
Him, apparently, according to these documents, along with Michael Sussman, Went to the FBI, told them that they had, you know, people inside their agency who were using VPNs in foreign countries to make these unauthorized accesses and What ultimately ended up happening is you have to ask yourself, who is this guy and what's he doing?
Well, he runs this company that's based out of Virginia, or he did, he used to.
The company itself he retired from just recently this year.
But it seems as though his involvement in this...
Looks a lot like it was a CIA front operation.
So I'm really starting to look at these individuals differently and understand that, you know, these major companies that are providing domain services seemingly are being run by intelligence agencies.
And, you know, I mean, that would make sense, right, that we know the black...
The Black Ops budget and all the money that gets funneled into these shell corporations that act as fronts for intelligence agencies.
So what's to say that this isn't that exact thing here?
It's New Star Inc.
and it's Reston, Virginia based.
And we all know McLean, Virginia, Langley, Virginia, CIA. You know, there's a lot going on over there and that's where a lot of this all is based out of.
So, anyway, it got off on a tangent there.
The indictment seems to suggest that him and Sussman went to the FBI and said, hey, you know, we have all this information.
How'd they get the information?
Well, it seems like they were spying on or monitoring or surveilling the FBI itself and then sharing information.
Then there's all these interactions between them and the FBI that look very suspicious.
And not to mention the fact that part of these indictments is going to be going after many more people.
So these are just the first people to come down the pipeline.
Now, the biggest problem that seems to be facing this whole investigation, as is outlined in this original report over here from Margaret Cleveland, Cleveland is that now what they're going to try to do is they're going to try to portray the whole Durham probe as being this disgruntled coercion mafia like tactic to get people to, you know, go after their political enemies.
Because there's all these, I guess...
There's, I guess, testimony out there and there's evidence of the way that Durham handled witnesses and was very rough and very intense in his interrogations, which is rightfully so.
These people are criminals.
These people are committing treason.
These people are trying to commit a coup against a sitting president and they think they can get away with it.
They're untouchable.
But anyway, the mainstream media apparently is going to now, when you see this, they're either going to do one or two things.
They're either going to not talk about this at all, which is one very likely outcome, or if they do talk about it, they're going to frame it as this Durham probe is some political hit job going after all the political enemies of Donald Trump.
So, you know, you guys know that's what you can expect.
That's what's coming down the pipeline.
So I just thought I'd give you a heads up.
Okay, here we are.
Canadian official expects police to take appropriate actions.
Truck convoy blocks U.S.-Canada border crossing.
You guys have heard of this massive trucker convoy up in Canada.
And apparently this is going to be coming to America soon.
I'll talk about that in a second.
But what we're seeing in Canada is...
The only way you can put it is the righteous voicing of indignation of a nation that's been subjugated by tyrants, who I'll get into later in this episode and why they act the way they do and why they love state-run capitalism and Chinese-style authoritarianism and why that is one of the biggest problems in our country today.
However, in Canada, right now, you have truckers that are basically traveling to and flooding the major cities, Ottawa, and the highways, and saying, look, you guys have two choices.
You can...
You know, fire us all, try to arrest us all, try to do whatever you think you can do to us, and, you know, try to force us to take vaccines, try to force us to do things we don't want to do against our will, or, and we can, and, you know, you can have some major problems, or you can back off Back down and allow us to have freedom and stop this medical tyranny and this overreach and this insane authoritarianism that you're engaged in.
That's just the general idea.
And it seems as though it's working to a degree.
You have Trudeau in hiding, a cowardly move.
He runs off to one of his mansions in the woods somewhere when this is all happening in Ottawa.
And It's because of him that we're seeing, and it's not just him, there's many others, but we're seeing this It's outlash, right?
Is that the word I'm thinking of?
Yeah.
Of complete, just, it's like a, you know, the boomerang effect.
It's all coming back on these people.
What they put out in the world is what they're getting back right now.
And really, you know, the sad part is, you know what the saddest part about this?
Is that the truckers have to go and blockade an entire city and blockade a border and do all these things, right?
Who's going to get hurt, though?
The people are going to get hurt.
Not Justin Trudeau.
He's not going to run out of, you know, whatever, crumpets and charcuterie or whatever he's eating up there.
He ain't running out of that, you know?
And when you think about it, it's sad that that's where it has to go, but at this point...
What are we going to do?
We can't allow these authoritarians to keep reaching and overreaching and continuing in this path.
I mean, we've seen what happened when that continues unchecked.
It becomes Chinese authoritarianism.
And here Hunter Biden exemplifies that perfectly.
Belt and Road Biden, how Hunter helped China's hegemonic scheme to overtake the U.S. Reading through this article just goes into further detail about Peter Schweitzer's book and the exposing of all of these connections between here in the U.S., our politicians, but also in Canada, also in Australia, and the Chinese Communist Party.
And you know what?
Jack Posobiec wrote an amazing article about this today.
And I'm going to read it, and I don't know if I'm going to read it all, but I'm going to read most of it because it is perfectly showing us where we're at and why this is happening.
It's all about how our politicians, our elite, our ruling class got a taste of state capitalism and Chinese authoritarianism, and they liked it so much that they want to bring it right here to the United States and Canada and Australia and Great Britain, and they're doing it right now.
So listen to this.
To fight and conquer in all our battles is not supreme excellence.
Supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.
So said General Sun Tzu around 500 BC. Chinese Communist Party Chairman Xi Jinping is poised to open the 2022 Olympics in Beijing this week when that ceremonial torch arrives and a cauldron pyre is lit in Bird's Nest Stadium under his political gaze, or pontifical gaze, She will raise his hand and with a small wave send a message to the world.
He's won.
Their resistance has been broken without fighting.
Yeah.
I'm going to skip ahead a little bit because...
This just talks about the previous Olympic Games where they're coming out, and now these ones will be the one where it's the official coronation ceremony, he says in here, and how Xi Jinping has basically had undisputed power in China for longer than anyone except Mao Zedong, and he will when the next National Party Congress convenes to elect the next leader for the next term or whatever.
So...
Again, other things in this article that make sense and really encapsulate what's going on here.
You have Jack Posobiec hitting on it.
You have him talking about the Institute of Virology in Wuhan and its reckless gain-of-function research on coronaviruses that likely resulted in a leak that caused worldwide COVID-19 virus.
And the CCP response was they purged all the databases.
Disinformation was spewed out about soup at a wet market.
Doctors were locked away.
Domestic travel ban and international flights encouraged.
And Xi lying to the World Health Organization about human-to-human transmission.
And it goes through the numbers of how many people were killed.
And then it talks about the Uyghurs and the Tibetans and Hong Kong and what's happening in the South China Sea with the military islands.
But, this is where it gets interesting.
I'm going to read this part.
It says, Western elites told us opening to the West would make China more democratic.
To the contrary, China opening to the West made the West more authoritarian.
Our moribund elites tasted a morsel of the CCP variant of state capitalism and their infatuation was instantaneous.
He goes on to say, I saw this myself working in Shanghai in the mid-2000s.
Delegations of glad-handing politicians and business leaders would touch down to learn about how the CCP regime bypassed antiquated notions such as private property, contracts, and the rule of law.
This was naturally always combined with copious amounts of baiju.
You guys don't know what Baiju is.
It's a very strong liquor that they drank in copious amounts in China, and it's always usually over business deals at dinner or whatever.
You know, they'll get really drunk.
I think that's like a thing.
I'm pretty sure it is.
TCP system is rule of the regime, by the regime, for the regime.
Want to build a high-speed train, but historic homes are in your way?
Demolish them.
Want to build a Disneyland, but the neighbors don't like it?
Bye-bye neighbors.
Need access to Iranian oil overland, but the Uyghurs are in your way?
Lock them up.
Want to control shipping lanes?
Build some military islands.
The CCP plays to win.
The West just plays.
And Joe Biden, he may pay lip service to the human rights, but old Joe himself traveled to China years ago and announced, it's in our self-interest that China continues to prosper.
Perhaps he was talking about his family's own self-interest.
It's as if the CCP has won a war without firing a single shot.
Become a parlor game to list the deals the CCP has struck with titans of finance and corporate power, as well as the lucrative arrangements with the families of Western leaders.
Sure, Hunter Biden's among them, but the portfolios of Democrats and Republicans alike are profligate with CCP ventures.
There is no simple elite capture on Beijing's part, This is elite merger.
By the way, former California Senator Barbara Boxer recently registered as a foreign agent of the CCP surveillance operation.
And then he goes on to talk about how Xi Jinping has basically full control in his own party.
And one of the most important parts here, though, that he notes is that the CCP leaders studied the demise of the USSR and are not about to admit culpability for a global Chernobyl anytime soon, referring to the pandemic and COVID-19.
Meaning they understand that when Russia admitted what happened in Chernobyl, that that was a part of their downfall.
That was a part of the beginning of their downfall.
Because the Western elites and all these big financiers, the merging of the elite that he's referring to in here, would end if they were out letting viruses out and destroying the world.
Because then these things can affect the elites too, and they don't like that.
Or so-called elites.
I think that this is like, I mean, look.
What an amazing article.
Hats off to Jack.
I mean, what a great piece of work that just sums everything up so well.
And the truckers are apparently coming to the U.S. and organizing a convoy from California to Washington, and that should be amazing.
700-plus trucks to join them.
But again, my recommendation to everyone, go stock up.
Get supplies if you can.
Buy a little at a time.
Make sure you have a lot in case things turn south.
What will the cowards who sat and did nothing say now?
President Trump released a statement on the upcoming movie 2,000 Mules.
President Trump released a statement on the upcoming movie by Dinesh D'Souza that talks about rampant election fraud in the 2020 election.
Hmm.
Interesting.
So, we're going to wait and see what this movie ends up showing.
And you guys can watch the trailer for yourself.
Let's see.
We'll leave a link down there if you want to watch that trailer.
But hey, you know, look at where we're at.
Everything's coming out.
Everything's coming to light.
Shocking testimony reveals Democrats were stealing overseas and military ballots from Michigan, Georgia, and now Arizona too.
Well, are we surprised?
I mean, we've known this for so long.
And the fact that it's still just being brought out as if it's new information, well, you know, maybe this particular piece of information is new.
But we were fully aware of the fraud that's been taking place.
I mean, individual instances are piling up so high that ignoring them is one of the...
Biggest displays of mental gymnastics I've ever seen the left have to do.
Either just completely and totally ignore it, or go through the mental gymnastics to explain why it's racist that you question fraud.
So, you know, hey, far be it for me, right?
Trump's slamming Mike Pence and Collins over trying to change the Electoral College Act.
So apparently now they're trying to form this bill called the Electoral College Act so that the vice president doesn't have the authority to certify the election.
And why would they want to do that?
Obviously, what happened on January 6th has them very, very scared.
They are very worried that in the future, at some point, a vice president may decide to actually act on facts and evidence and rules and laws and decide that maybe we shouldn't certify a president who was elected with massive voter fraud.
Maybe we shouldn't do that.
Maybe we as a country should not do that.
Here we are, though.
Mike Pence, of course, is going to be on board with this because he's the weak, coward, traitor, rhino, who decided on January 6th to, oh, yeah, we'll certify this one because it's better for the country.
Oh, so much better for the country having a despot, a demented despot in office.
It's great.
It makes everything so wonderful.
People are really loathsome.
It's sad.
And speaking of loathsome people, nervous Newsome stuttering as he defends himself over this.
He was seen maskless.
Oh no!
And the LA mayor and San Francisco mayor, all maskless at football games.
Can you make any of this up?
I mean...
I really do believe that these people are just maniacal sociopaths, you know, because it's that inability to comprehend that what they're doing is so hypocritical And so, again, it's what they say.
They do and say such different things that, I mean, it just must be nice to live in that kind of bubble for like a few minutes where you just have no shame.
You have no concept of hypocrisy and your own evil.
I don't know.
I'm not saying that it would be nice.
I'm just saying it would be interesting to know what that's like to live like these people do in such a disconnected way.
But yeah, here he is with Magic Johnson.
Oh, you know, and the funniest thing when I watched this, I was like, okay.
So what's the argument is?
His argument is this.
He says, well, I just took it off for a second to do a picture because Magic Johnson asked.
And I'm like, think to myself, I'm like, all right, hold on.
Let me get this straight.
We're in the middle of a pandemic that's so deadly that every person in the state of California, when they're inside of any building that's public, has to wear a face mask, presumably to stop the spread of a disease that's spread by germs that are coming out of our mouth, microparticles and things, that we need the face mask to stop from doing, and we're all supposed to stand six feet apart.
Don't forget that, right?
So his rationale is, I'm going to take off my mask.
It's okay to wear your mask everywhere you go, but it's also okay to just take it off and hug somebody and take a picture a foot from their face and breathe all over each other.
It's like, how stupid do they think we are?
The question is, how much longer will people watch this and just let these criminals go and let them just get away with this?
I mean, you know, I gotta be honest with you.
These people are all hypocrites and liars.
Like here, Jen Sakai.
Sakai, whatever, I don't care what her name is.
It's so, I don't care how to pronounce her name correctly.
But she claims that she was unaware of a leaked video of Border Patrol agents ripping the Border Patrol chief for all warranties to his face.
Well, here you go.
In case you were wondering, Jen Sakai, and somebody wants to email this to her, you can go to JustInformedTalk over here on Rumble, and there's a video right here.
It's a minute and 45 seconds.
It's got 1,000 views.
Well, in case you don't like that one, I understand.
There's one over here, too, on BitChute you can watch.
It's got about 6,500 views.
But she hasn't seen it.
But it's been nationally reported on.
And it's pretty much all over the Internet.
She has no idea.
Do you want to see the clip?
Let's watch.
Stay focused.
We continue to do the job and the mission that we signed up for.
We all signed up for it.
We all raised our hand.
It's kind of hard to say that.
It's not hard to say it.
It may be hard for you to say it, but I've been doing this for 31 years.
It's not hard for me to say it.
Every day I wake up and I'm committed to this organization and I'm committed to each one of y'all.
You're getting bogged down in the policies of the policies.
You can't even say illegal aliens.
What's happening?
You can't even say illegal aliens.
That's why Chief Scott left.
You just said it.
You said anything going to happen to you?
You just said it.
You're a whole generation.
Why are you guys getting caught up in the matches?
There's a mission out there to be.
We can sit here and argue about it until we're doing the phase.
I've been doing this job as long as y'all.
What's that?
Not the problem, Chief.
What's that?
For evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
I can't hear you.
For evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
That's exactly what's happening here.
Good men are doing nothing.
You're allowing illegal aliens to be drugged off the communities.
You are doing something.
No sir, we're not.
You are.
You're rescuing people every day.
You're taking fentanyl on the streets every day.
You're taking them at bed in the streets.
Criminal aliens on the streets every day.
You got a nice fentanyl death in the history of our country.
In one year, in this country.
You know, we've made more wind-all seizures already this year than we made last year.
I'm looking up to knock out, because we're focusing on this family.
I don't know.
And that's the problem.
And we're working on it.
We're making the results.
We don't have the results.
Okay, so, first off, let's just be very clear.
Thank you.
This chief is...
Abhorrent.
This guy is a coward.
This guy is a liar.
This guy is a creep.
I can tell you that by just listening to him speak.
He's a weasel.
He's a worm.
He's the kind of guy who will say anything he has to say to get to where he needs to be.
And how do I know that?
Well, because as these Border Patrol agents are confronting him and literally telling him, you are not doing your job.
We are not doing our job.
We are busing illegal people, illegal immigrants and aliens into this country.
And The border is completely open.
You failed at your job.
The president's failed at this job.
You are a failed commanding officer.
And they're calling him that to his face, right?
And his response is, why are you playing politics?
Why are you playing semantics?
No, no, no.
It's not politics or semantics to watch people literally invade our country and then have a coward lying worm like you get up in front of everyone and say, oh, but we're getting the fentanyl, the fentanyl, the fentanyl, the fentanyl.
Well, how about we address the root issues here, right?
Talking about fentanyl, where's the fentanyl coming from?
It ain't coming from Mexico, it's coming from China.
And speaking on that, who would benefit the most from us having an open border that would get more liberal Democrats in office who would be bought and paid for and neoliberal, neoconservative Republicans in who are all bought and paid for by the CCP to destroy our country from within because of cowards and worms like this man who's standing in front of this room of real men telling them that what they're seeing is not happening.
So, that's my take on it.
I just had to give my opinion on that very quickly.
A couple more stories here.
Joe Rogan has been...
They're trying to put these labels over his podcast now.
In all fairness, you know, Joe's...
It seems like Joe's just come out and been kind of magnanimous about it.
Been like, hey, you know, it is what it is.
You guys disagree.
I don't think you should.
But what's funny about this story is that Joe Rogan, again...
We're talking about canaries and coal mines.
If they can cancel him over this...
You know, it's one thing to cancel out a guy like Alex Jones, right, who says crazy stuff, like really crazy stuff.
And sometimes he's 100% right, and I have no problem admitting that.
And sometimes I don't know that he gets it right, but that doesn't mean that he's any less valid or more valid or less valid.
He's an individual human.
We all, to err, is to be human or whatever.
Here we, though, have a man who literally just has conversations that don't even...
I mean, that involve opinions, but essentially they're just conversational opinions where they change and are fluid.
They're not, you know, concrete opinions.
They're more like we're discussing and debating, so we have different points of contention from which we come, right?
But here, they want to silence it.
Because again, it's just like that article outlined.
It's the Chinese, they got the ruling class, the elites, these families, they got a taste of that capital, you know, state-run capitalism.
And they got a taste of that authoritarianism from China.
And they're like, man, we got to get that in America.
How do we get it?
Release a virus.
But first, we have to change the words and what they mean.
As we see here, the 1619 Project, which is a racist...
In and of itself, the founder accusing Joe Rogan of open racism.
Well, of course, because he's white.
Do we really need to go any further than that?
because according to most of these race theorists, anyone who's white is inherently racist, and beyond that, they have racism that is generationally built into their lives, and nothing you can ever do will change that your evil whiteness is so bad.
It's like, give me a break.
These people are morons.
They're the intellectual equivalent of a pebble, and you should treat them as such and ignore them when they speak.
Turn off the TV and do something productive with your life, like read a book as opposed to listening to these individuals give their opinion on anything, and I'm not directing that at you guys in the audience.
I'm directing that at individuals who actually watch these people because I know most of you probably would never do it.
And I only do it because I have to.
And trust me, I wouldn't otherwise.
So that's my diatribe there.
Anti-Defamation League slammed after changing the definition of racism on website.
Well, again, remember...
This is how you steal an election.
How do you steal an election?
You steal the election.
Then once you get into power, you change the law to make it legal how you stole the election.
That's what they're trying to do in the Congress right now with this election certification act or whatever.
So just remember, this is the same principle here.
Now they're saying that racism, this is the definition according to them, the marginalization and or oppression of people of color, based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy, that privileges white people.
So, again, white people are the root of all evil and everything that's wrong in the world, according to the ADL. And, I mean, seemingly, if you take this at face value.
And, you know, pretty much anything that you do is racist because you're white.
Which is absurd, and we all know it, and we all know this is just semantics.
Like, you want to talk about semantics, this is semantics.
This is them literally changing words around to make it seem one way when it's not.
Again, you can call everybody racist, and when the word loses its meaning as it has today, now they're just like, oh, well, it's lost its meaning anyway, so now we'll just say racism is, all white people will Yeah, that's, racism is white people.
That's what they should just, they just have a, you know what they should do?
They should just have a picture of a white guy on the racist thing.
It says racism, and then it just says a picture of a white guy.
Like a white family or something.
Like, out to a picnic.
I mean, because that's how absurd all this stuff is.
These people are crazy.
Finally here, in the ultimate ignorance, Whoopi Goldberg claiming the Holocaust wasn't about race.
Let that sink in for a minute.
I'm going to let you get one more second and let that sink in.
And moving on.
I'm not even going to address that.
That's absurd.
Navy SEALs stop training at Washington State Parks after residents are fearful of armed men.
Oh no.
Triggering the poor snowflakes because they're big bad men with guns coming out of the water.
Granted, if I saw a Navy SEAL coming out of the beach and I was not ready for it, I'd probably be kind of nervous too.
But that being said, you'd think this would be a positive thing.
Like, hey, seems like we're being protected.
Seems like these guys are training to become good soldiers in case we need them to, you know, protect us one day.
I don't know.
You see this stuff and it's...
All right.
Well, that's it for me.
Also, don't forget to find me over here on Gitter, and I'll play this video as you see what's happening here.
You know, this is the kind of stuff you're going to get from following me on Gitter, just amazing stuff.
In this example, we have me saying, and they say we are in a cult, as these two, I don't know what, I'm guessing teachers, maybe doctors, scientists.
I think they said they were pediatricians.
Do the most cringe-worthy routine, cheer routine you've ever seen.
And yeah.
Get vaccinated!

Yay!
These people, man, I don't know if they see themselves or if they just think this is like cool or I don't know.
I think it's a lack of self-awareness, man.
People are all crazy.
Speaking of awareness, let's all be aware of the scripture and the power of Christ because, look, this is what it's all about.
And I want to share a piece of scripture here that talks about what it means to have the shepherd with us, right?
And this, I'm going to start with a verse out of the book of Isaiah, chapter 53, verse 6, and it says this, We all went astray like sheep.
We have all turned to our own way, and the Lord has punished him for the iniquity of us all.
Think about what that means.
And then think about this.
Sheep will always need a shepherd.
I mean, they wander off without the shepherd's guidance.
They trust a wolf without the shepherd intervening.
They won't even drink out of a stream without the shepherd calming them down and reassuring them.
We are essentially sheep in this analogy.
When sheep are left by themselves, I mean, they always get into trouble.
This is an unflattering but accurate comparison for us, I guess.
I mean, sheep are horrible at trying to manage life alone, right?
But think about this.
Without God, we all will walk around in sin and toward it.
I mean, it's easy, it seems convenient, and it's more attractive than the sheep pen that we live in with Christ.
You think there won't be any fun if you follow the shepherd, But think about this, that his guidance brings life, safety, and security.
If sheep are a common sacrifice, then God sent a surprise, Jesus, the good shepherd.
He chose to let the sheep go free while he became the sacrifice for the lost and wandering.
While you went, and we went, I should say, on our own way, Jesus paid for our rebellion.
Now undoubtedly, we will come face to face with change when we break free from our stubborn sheep-like thinking and return to the shepherd.
But remember this, when we do, there's protection within his care, healing for your inner wounds, and life companionship in the process and in his presence.
So I'm going to go ahead and leave it there and end it with a prayer and say, Dear Lord and Heavenly Father, help us turn around every time we wander away from your Son and help us resist the urge to run.
Help us find peace in your presence and help us always find love in you.
