‘Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad’, -Euripides

Bible or not, this is a truism. If you look at the radical Left Communists, you can plainly see they are out of their minds. How long will it be before they are completely destroyed? I do not have that answer. But, I do know–it’s on its way. I see 2 big Communists under fire: Cuomo and Newsom. You can’t tell me these 2 crackpots were not off the charts, nuts during the Covid dress rehearsal.

I have often looked at the White House to see the spiritual meaning behind Joe Biden being President. It is evident: “Those who GOD will destroy, he first makes them mentally unfit/mad/angry/senseless.’ Just look at Biden. He is totally mentally unstable. We are in the very last days and months of the empire and Biden is your proof. God is turning this nation over to senseless lunacy: ie, Dr Seuss, Pepe LePew, trans-genders in women’s sports, ETC. It is insanity. It will get much worse, too.

I believe the men of ancient times parables except I believe in only ONE God: Elohim/Jehovah from the Bible. God indeed will ‘create calamity’: Isaiah 45:7 ‘I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am the LORD, who does all these things.’

The Greek playwrite, Euripides (484- 406 BCE), is credited with the observation: ‘Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad,‘ although I have found one version that is more acceptable for us monotheists, ‘“Those whom God wishes to destroy, he first deprives of their senses.”

Many other men through time also observed this case scenario:

 “When falls on man the anger of the gods, first from his mind they banish understanding.” Lycurgus

 “When divine power plans evil for a man, it first injures his mind.” Sophocles 

“Those whom God wishes to destroy, he first deprives of their senses.” Euripides 

“Whom God wishes to destroy he first makes mad.” Seneca

 “For those whom God to ruin has design’d, He fits for fate, and first destroys their mind.” John Dryden 

“Whom the Gods would destroy they first make mad.” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

It’s going to get worse before it gets better. And, I do not believe it will ever get ‘better’. Learn to survive. That is the future ‘better’.

  1. Astute observation. Actually many bible verses tell the same just in other ways. Like pharohs heart was hard, so God hardened it more. God will give the lustful all the lusts they desire. Actually this is kind as before they go to the eternal sauna they get their hearts fill of wickedness in this short so journ in this zoo made for us. One of my favorite things i ever heard was; this place for the righteous is as close to hell as they ever get, yet for the unrighteous this same place is as close to heaven that they ever get. Prophesy says wisdom departs from these last leaders. I think they are being bundled up now for the barn fire. Just sad we must interact with them and their deeds but this must be our test of faith.

  3. Well, I thought a lot about this one. You got that exactly on point. Sometimes I think we have a habit of worrying more about events or times, rather than the men who created them. I.e. Barry Soetoro or whatever alias he is traveling under, or George Soros and countless others who set the stage. We know them. But from the above, I particularly liked the John Dryden version better.
    However they all say it. We may well be doomed,

    And it is a shame to think due to what some have done that we all will pay a grand price. But then how could we not? We have to pray to be saved from the worst of it. This is fast coming down to conclusions and verdicts — sans the courtroom juries. And seeing so many radical leftists whistling past graveyards does not inspire me much more. Or, as I like to say, the left is not even whistling past it anymore… they are leading a Mariachi band right through the cemetery.

  4. BR:
    I believe Gods remnant will be saved.
    Unfortunately, it really looks as if much of the nation is going in the way of the mad—mad as in lefto nuts.
    I will never know why God makes ALL of us pay the price–I mean corporately.
    But, then again, I remember that he will save and protect a remnant. I truly believe that

  5. Yes but still we will witness , like Lot some of what happens, which itself is ghastly enough. But we tried to tell them and warn them. That is until they fully went off to nutsville edge. They were only pretending to listen or care before anyway, Incorrigible as they are. Still God never abandoned them, they abandoned God. It’s that choice thing for the Left, you know.
