“Reading IS Freedom!” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©01/15/2026

The name of this opinion editorial might raise some people’s eyebrows in question for what the assertion might be attempting to mean in the current United States of America, especially since academics for several previous decades have prided themselves with being some of the most literate and educated individuals in the world… at least according to them. I propose that while many see themselves in this way due to ongoing college education, the normal teenager in America in 2026 can’t even read what I used to read at the age of eight years old. Some even graduate from high school without even THAT grade level of comprehension. That reality bothers me since even my ninety-three year old Mom Vada who’d only passed to eighth grade could read books beyond that level, and some college students CAN’T even understand the lower.

My Dad Truman only got to second grade, but he knew more about the space program than most people because he later read every book he could get his hands on. He taught himself things he needed to know and served in World War II, way before I was born in 1972. By the time I was in school in 1977, he still would read my books from school as well as all of those that my older sister, my older brother, and others bought him until he died at eighty-five. It’s amazing to me that a coal miner born in 1913 Virginia and living in Dayton Ohio was more interested in READING than so many seem to even in this most formatted and book available time now in history. How can present-day learning fail so epically with something necessary for EVERY technical and support job needed for ALL business fields? When did abilities get lost?

I knew that neither of my parents even had full basic education, so I tried to go above and beyond my abilities to make good grades to go to college, make them proud, and have what neither was allowed to even dream of accomplishing. I was sick my whole life and had to fight the ongoing battle to stay well enough to go to school. I’ve told it before, but I’ll tell it again for those who haven’t read my posts; I graduated 4th in my class with a 4.3 GPA and the scholarships to go to college to take Computer Science as my Major and Teaching as my Minor. I got sick and had to withdraw to join the main workforce instead. Nine years later as an Office Manager, I got my Technical Certificate for Webpage Development from Edison State Community College and began making computer websites for various businesses locally and in the USA.

I’m including this because I want EVERYONE reading this to understand that I truly believe that ANY success in life BEGINS with READING! I’m now an Award-Winning Author myself, but my love of reading books is what brought me to this point of writing my stories, making the websites for myself and others, and using software to create my music for song lyrics I write. THIS IS ONGOING LEARNING BY READING! I feel like I need to shout this out to the masses! I know that some of my Gen-Xers and those after have seemed to lose the ability to have imagination that books require, and this situation spells the doom of this country if we don’t get this fixed! What happens when people can’t read what a document says and sign away all of their rights? Yes, that could REALLY HAPPEN in the future IF WE CAN’T READ.

I feel like I’m screaming into thin air sometimes, and that makes me want to go to downtown Dayton, stand on a street, and hold up a sign that says, “READ OR YOU WILL LOSE EVERYTHING!” The problem is that so many won’t even be able to understand the words now. If we were in 1400’s Europe then I’d expect that since the populace then were controlled by not being taught or sometimes not even allowed to read; but we’re in America 2026, so this is something as summed up by what THE PRINCESS BRIDE taught us with a single emphatic word, “INCONCEIVABLE!”. I’m going to be fifty-four years old this September, but I have embraced the technological advances as a webpage designer the same as my computer technician husband, but we BOTH STILL READ BOOKS! My new most books read is in 2025 at 142!

I recently put in for a job at one of the Dayton Library locations since I for one believe in the necessity of teaching every single student whether child or adult to LOVE READING! Reading books fuels the imagination, transports you to places you might never have been able to visit in real life, or helps you to discover worlds that you never would’ve known since they wouldn’t have existing in reality if not written in a book. I live in a mobile home community, so when I began meeting the children in the park I bought some of my favorite books from my childhood to be kept at that office so when they sometimes stop by for snacks after school they could visit while they ate and maybe read too. Children who can read have such an advantage over those that can’t when it comes to scholarships for colleges and then real job opportunities.

Whether tales of Peter Rabbit, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cottontail or The Tawny Scrawny Lion, The Bouncy Baby Bunny Finds His Bed, The Velveteen Rabbit, The Shoemaker and His Elves, or The Little Red Hen, giving those kids an ability to imagine, dream, and learn from the many lessons contained in each is what every parent or loved one should want for each child. I have many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews, and even great-great nieces and great-great nephews, so even though I don’t have children of my own I’ve helped to raise many! I also taught at church for various age groups over the years. While I’m a Christian and don’t read certain genres by choice, I also read various genres in both secular AND Christian categories vociferously! A wider variety gives you a more balanced life view.

My husband Ken and I have both been bemoaning this current state of affairs with Reading abilities. Each of us have worked at various places and have shared with each other how some co-workers even separated by decades in ages didn’t seem to want to READ then. While I understand everyone not having the same interests, when it comes to books in general I can’t believe that EVERY SINGLE PERSON doesn’t have at least ONE genre of books that appeals to them. I READ EVERY DAY. Seriously, EVERY DAY! It seems impossible for others not to. On my Kindle I have been reading for 322 weeks in a row and 1179 days in a row as of 01/15/2026. It would have been longer if not for the hospital visits to family that interrupted my reading streaks since I got my iPhone in 2017. READING IS LIKE BREATHING TO ME!

I know the title of this is FREEDOM instead of breathing, but it truly grieves my heart that so many are missing out on a pastime I hold as close as my Faith. Researching for my non-fiction book I’m writing does have me reading the books some would not out of pleasure since they are history, science, supernatural, religion, and Christian apologetics. A majority of what I do read, though, are historic and supernatural secular and Christian Romance along with many secular and Christian Science Fiction-Fantasy novel series. I did Japanese Anime OhayoCon PowerPoint Presentation Panels for years since I love that media and used that artwork type for my Fantasy novel series characters I’m presently writing. My own world of Eirinth is a place I love to get lost in sometimes too, but I don’t have to read to visit it since it lives in me.

Narnia was my first Fantasy world that I adored by C.S. Lewis, but it was the world of Merovence then Gramarye that became my two ultimate favorites to visit in books by my all-time favorite Fantasy/Science Fiction writer Christopher Stasheff who passed away in 2018. His books have now been taken out of some libraries for either lack of space or recent interest, and it breaks my heart that they are not available for other people to find in the place I saw as a launch pad for my imaginative travel. His books are still in some bookstores AND all on Amazon. His Merovence began in 1986 when I was fourteen years old, and his writing inspired me to write my own world of Eirinth. I was blessed that Stasheff did give a bit of feedback to me for first novel I published. My favorite Author reading part of my book then commenting was amazing!

My final point is that even if you don’t write, don’t care for academics, or don’t want to use your time to read any books because life is just too busy, I hope that anyone somehow reading THIS will come to realize that being ABLE TO READ is a NECESSITY to be FREE, and people MUST take it seriously and NOT take it for granted. Local libraries are much needed resources for each person in EVERY community around the country. READNG IS FREEDOM! If you like Fantasy novels with Action and a touch of Japanese Anime then begin with my “Rebirth of Eirinth” Series that IS at the Montgomery County Public Library: BREAKING THE SHACKLES at 289 pages and TREADING THE PATH at 485 pages by Tonja Condray Klein and music EP “Eirinth Breaking”. PLEASE ENJOY MY EIRINTH BY READING!

“To Condray, Johnson, and Rose Families and ALL I’ve Shared Jesus with for Last 45 Years” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©08/23/2025

I have been sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ since I was eight years old with anyone who would listen. I have also shared the Gospel with people I met at stores, restaurants, OhayoCon, and anywhere else I could. I turn 53 on 09/01 this year, and I still believe in everything that I have shared with everyone now more than ever before. Time is now reaching the end of the Grace Dispensation or Church Age that leads to a RAPTURE or ‘Rescue’ of believers in Messiah Yeshua HaMashiach who is Savior Jesus Christ! This will be an evacuation to Heaven before the Great Tribulation begins here that will have 21 judgments that will be Hell on Earth for any human still here. This is going to happen whether you want to believe it or not. THIS IS A HEARTFELT WARNING OF LOVE!

I have been reading the book AGENTS OF BABYLON: What the Prophecies of Daniel Tell Us about the End of Days by Dr. David Jeremiah, along with all of the books by Jonathan Cahn that are eye-opening, historical, and spiritual FACTS. I reread BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL by Dr. Peter S. Ruckman as well as all those by L.A. Marzulli, JUDGMENT OF THE NEPHILIM by Ryan Pitterson, and A MATTER OF DAYS by Astrophysicist Hugh Ross. I felt the need to put this up on all my media outlets including my own two websites and Facebook specifically for all of you and any others. I’m trying to work on my Nonfiction book AFTER ADAM: A Probability of Possibilities, but its taking time, and I wanted this up first since those in my family and life need to read this in 2025 and even after.

If you ever said the ‘Sinner’s Prayer’ with me then I hope that you truly did believe in Jesus Christ as your Savior. This is the ONLY WAY to be saved from the wrath that will come in the End Times. This is not to scare a person but to prepare. As things are showing that the time is closing in, I’ve been praying, reading, and repenting for my own lapses in communication when angry. The last Revival could begin at any time now. I’m hoping we all get real and ready before it’s too late. Jesus Christ will appear in the clouds, the trumpet will sound, and believers will be supernaturally TAKEN AWAY for safety and to allow the judgments to begin. Some believe it happens in middle of Tribulation, others near the end, and even some don’t believe it will at all. I do, and I believe beginning.

Regardless, we ALL NEED TO KNOW JESUS AS SAVIOR! He shed His blood on Calvary for your sin so you could become saved and reclaimed for His family. I know some so-called Christians don’t act like family, but I know that those who truly love Jesus will be willing and able to accept ALL who will come to Christ no matter the background, color, race, former religion, or anything else that some use to deny people. ANYONE can be SAVED. I believe that with all of my heart and soul. The ‘Agents’ book has thrown me for a loop personally since four of the people in the earlier prophecies have a line of my own ancestry! That really messes with your own mind a bit seeing that Great-Granddad so many times removed was in a prophecy and had to heed Yahweh at least once!

When you have one link going to the one leader who desecrates the Temple of God Almighty Yahweh and then the other line is to the family that RESTORED the Temple of God Almighty Yahweh then it feels just like the Civil War sides ancestry too since I have at least one with the North and one with the South. That’s History 101. I prefer focusing on the ones on the Biblical side. In these End Times, there will come a point when you will have to choose one side or the other: God Almighty or an evil leader or law. We might have to deal with that even before the Rapture take us away. Many in the African nations who are Christians are being slaughtered now. We might face some kind of persecution even in America with all of the freedoms we have enjoyed over almost 250 years.

Family, friends, and those I don’t even know, please take time to search the Bible, pray about your soul, and make sure you are not serving the wrong god or belief system before it is eternally too late. Jesus Christ has given His life so you can be FREE from sin and eternal damnation. JESUS IS ETERNAL LOVE. Some don’t see that because they want a certain lifestyle that is seen as Sin. No person, creed, or action is ever worth losing your eternal soul. You are worth these words being typed to get through to you with the TRUTH of Jesus Christ Who can SET YOU FREE and give you the NEW LIFE that Satan is trying to keep you from accepting since that will mean one less lost soul for him that he collects against God and one more saved soul for our Creator Yahweh!

It is a matter of believing that Jesus Christ is the only begotten (born) Son of God Almighty the Creator God Yahweh, that He came by virgin birth through Mary, lived a sinless life, was crucified to shed His blood in your place for the blood sacrifice for sin Once and For All, died, was buried, rose again, was seen by many, and then went back to Heaven to intercede for us and send His Holy Spirit to bring us Spiritual Gifts to become His witnesses on Earth until the final prophecies could be fulfilled for the Gentiles before the last one for Israel is set into motion. Christians and Jews share the same God Almighty Creator. Savior Jesus Christ is Yeshua Messiah, and that had to happen to bring Gentiles into the Salvation plan of God the Father since the beginning of TIME.

If you believe then simply pray, “Father God of Creation, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ who is Yeshua Messiah as well as Savior for the world. I believe all that was written and ask You to forgive me of my sins, cleanse me from all the bad in my life, and restore me to Your fellowship by Grace and through Faith in the Blood of Jesus that was placed on the Heavenly Altar for any and all who will accept Him as Savior, Lord, King, and God Almighty in the Son. Please help me to show Your love and spread the Truth to others to know You too while there is time. Thank You for Your Mercy, Grace, and Love. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen!” If you prayed and truly believe that then YOU ARE SAVED BY JESUS! Read NLT or King James book of Romans at blueletterbible.org!

“The Gifts of the Holy Spirit of God Almighty the Creator Are NECESSARY for Last Revival” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©08/20/2025

I completely do NOT understand the reasoning of certain Christian denominations that completely ignore or even attack the Gifts of the Holy Spirit of God Almighty of Creation! I was raised by Bible-Believing Full-Gospel Mom Vada who never received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of Speaking in Other Tongues, but SHE BELIEVED IN THE TEACHING WITH HER WHOLE HEART. She was raised Baptist in Exeter, Virginia and still has kin that are Baptist ministers like her brother was. As long as someone has accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, Son of God, and the soon Coming King then you are my brother or sister in Christ whether Protestant, Catholic, Gentile, or Jew! The question I’m trying pose is “WHY ARE ANY OF YOU AFRAID OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN HE IS OUR COMFORTOR?”

I’m very aware of the supposition that the Gifts of the Holy Spirit died when the original Apostles did. Hogwash! I’m not an uneducated, brainwashed, superstitious moron. I’m Born-Again, Baptized in the Holy Spirit with Evidence of Speaking in Other Tongues, and was blessed to Give and Interpret Messages in Tongues during regular Church services in more than one church since I was thirteen years old. These Gifts are SUPERNATURAL! This feeling of the Holy Spirit Overflowing in you to manifest outside in one of the Gifts is unlike ANY OTHER FEELING IN THE UNIVERSE! THIS IS REAL AS GOD ALMIGHTY FILLS US WITH THE GIFTS TO REACH LOST SOULS AND ENCOURAGE ALL BELIEVERS IN JESUS CHRIST. I’m sad and frustrated about those who refuse this AMAZING WORK OF YAHWEH!

The End Times are HERE AND NOW! We need to stop using stupid religious manmade rules, teachings, or even prejudices to STOP the OVERFLOW needed for the LAST GREAT REVIVAL! This is not crazy or without order. God is trying to call the ones He needs to empower to fulfill this final gathering of souls from highways and byways in time before the Rapture of the Believers of Jesus Christ happens which could be as soon as today, Rosh Hashanah 2025, the next year, Rosh Hashanah 2026, or even sometime before or up to Rosh Hashanah 2029.We ALL need to NOT BE one that’s called Five Foolish Virgins that don’t have their WICK READY AND THE OIL FULL! No matter what you’ve done or not done, YOU NEED JESUS AS SAVIOR for the RAPTURE. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS FIRE for the Revival!

I have heard so many people talk about being SCARED of the Holy Spirit of God Almighty. WHY? I’ve been filled for almost 40 years now, and the Holy Spirit and His Gifts have NEVER made me feel or do anything weird or not Biblical. NOT ONCE. I’ve seen people be saved, delivered, healed, filled with the Holy Spirit, and called to become the ministers of God Almighty in all the different callings mentioned in the Holy Bible. Salvation sets you free from sin, and that feeling is the AMAZING GRACE by Jesus Christ. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the Evidence of Speaking in Other Tongues is an additional Overflow. All Christians should be able to FEEL when the chains of sin fall off you when you are SAVED. THAT IS AMAZING GRACE! The Baptism of the Holy Spirit sometimes happens at the same time.

Why doesn’t every Christian experience the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the Evidence of Speaking in Other Tongues when they are saved? I don’t know. There might be something they need to let God deliver them from before that infilling can happen. I personally think that ANYONE who is willing can experience the Overflow if they want it. The Holy Spirit ALWAYS points to Faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Messiah. The Gifts are to be a WITNESS to others around you to know GOD ALMIGHTY IS REAL, POWERFUL, AND PRESENT! Some people think ‘God is Dead’ or Humanism has overcome ‘religious’ things like FAITH. GOD ALMIGHTY THE CREATOR, YAHWEH, YESHUA HA MASHIACH, JESUS CHRIST, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT COMFORTER ARE ALIVE! I know.

I pray in the Spirit so much that it’s like second nature to me now. Whenever I begin writing Opinion Editorials, I pray in English and in the Spirit to use these words FOR THE GLORY OF JESUS THE REDEEMER! The Holy Spirit is to help us to become BOLD. He overcomes our human fallen nature that wreaks so much damage to every one of us daily in life. The Holy Spirit refreshes, empowers, intercedes, and restores us to share our Faith in Jesus Christ in whatever way is needed for the soul that YOU might be the point of contact for Christ to have His Holy Spirit through YOU to reach to their being by your words, music, dancing, or physical solace so the Holy Spirit SUPERNATURALLY can call to them to repent and BE SAVED! WE are EACH a SUPERNATURAL CONDUIT for God Almighty to reach EVERY SOUL!

There is so much going on in this world right now, whether wars, disasters, human suffering, persecution, and even deaths; Jesus Christ is the ANSWER to it ALL if we can only LET HIM SHINE THROUGH US! LOVE in a main goal listed in I Corinthians 12-14 that gives a well-rounded explanation about how the Tongues are not the main Gift if not used with Interpretation. The Gifts of Healing, Discernment, Prophecy, Word of Wisdom, and Word of Knowledge are for the people around you. Praying in the Spirit is Personal and FOR YOU for strength, endurance, and any other need the Holy Spirit alone knows you need. When you pray in the Spirit it increases your abilities if God deems it to be so. Not everyone gets the ‘flashy’ Gifts like Healing, but whatever He gives to you will be what you are called to be for Him.

Maybe that’s why so many refuse the even contemplate the Gifts. Are there things in your life that you feel would interfere with the Gift of the Holy Spirit of God Almighty through Faith in Jesus Christ? In all the days since1985 when I was filled to Overflow, I have not been perfect AT ALL. I still sin and beat myself up over it EVERY DAY. I don’t have to be perfect to allow the Holy Spirit to use me; I’m just willing to let Him. I try to let the Holy Spirit sweep away the dust and grime in my soul from my ongoing failures. I have loved God Almighty through His Son Jesus Christ and the filling of His Holy Spirit, but I FAIL. If your only reason for not letting the Holy Spirit OVERFLOW in you is that you fear He will condemn you, join the club of every single Christian who has ever lived in reality on Earth! NO ONE IS PERFECT.

We strive for Perfection through Christ; NOT THROUGH ME OR YOU OR ANYONE ELSE. The one song that fills my heart with joy every time I hear it is by Mercy Me called “Ghost” on their “Lifer” Album. It is a realistic take on what the Holy Spirit SHOULD BE in every Jesus believer! Geoff Moore’s song “Overflow” inspired this concept for me even if he just meant witnessing. EVERY BELIEVER IN CHRIST HAS THE HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE when you accept Jesus as Savior. The Gifts are an OVERFLOWING for you to grow personally or be used for others in tandem with the Holy Spirit SUPERNATURALLY when REVIVAL begins for God’s people once they are willing and ready. I WANT ONE NOW IN 2025! I’ve been praying for it for YEARS. I’ve been experiencing my own personal awakening too!

In the Last Days, which seems to be today now more than ever before, technology can explain how some things happen in Biblical Prophecies not explainable in the older times. It is written in Joel 2:28, quoted in Acts 2:17, and seems relevant now more than ever too: “In the last days,’ God says, ‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.” It might sound scary to some, but when it happens it is an uplifting thing that not only empowers those present for Faith and Miracles but can be shared through numerous communication channels worldwide for an instantaneous and encompassing movement of God Almighty the Creator of the Universe who REDEEMED us ALL THROUGH CHRIST IF WE JUST BELIEVE HIM!

I know some in ‘ministries’ over the decades have exploited innocent people for their own gain while claiming to be messengers for Christianity. I’m telling you now that the Holy Spirit of God Almighty through Faith in Jesus Christ is NOT meant to be a money racket! Preaching the Gospel does take money since Capitalism is alive and well in America, but at the same time, those giving money to Christian ministries expect Truth, Continuity, and Accountability. I’m not making money from any post on any channel I place this. I have books and songs on other media that haven’t made as much as I paid for my artwork and don’t pay for my internet service for a year. I’m sharing this about the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit quickened my spirit to write this to reach some confused or even afraid of God’s Gifts.

Those who know me know that I try to tell the Truth every time I share anything in 2025. I was writing stories when I was out of Church for a few years, and I’m not proud of some of the content even though the writing was done well and won awards in that group. When I came back to Church, I stopped writing that. I began my Christian Fantasy Novel Series to reach those I had known and wanted them to know Christ too through a known media genre, though I made it to become Christian-based to be a witness with LOVE. Other companies are trying to use this media style like GABRIEL AND THE GUARDIANS, a beautiful Manga/Graphic Novel and Animated Series online. There’s another group using comic books for history! The Holy Spirit gives us abilities if we just ASK HIM! Reach out to Him NOW!

“Father God Almighty of the Universe, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ the Savior Yeshua the Messiah. I believe He died for me for my sins I inherited by birth and need to be forgiven for by believing that He died FOR ME! I also ask that Your Holy Spirit would begin to open Your Spiritual Gifts inside me now that my sins are cleansed and I am a new creation in Christ Jesus. Let Your Holy Spirit OVERFLOW me to let the Gifts flow out to reach others as You give me strength by praying in the Spirit for my growth. Thank You for your Mercy and Grace. In the name of Yeshua Jesus I pray, Amen!” One of the first signs that the Holy Spirit is Overflowing in you will be stuttering of lips. Do not be afraid. This is usually one word or phrase, but the longer you let the Spirit flow as you pray then more words will come to you.

In case you are interested, my “Rebirth of Eirinth” series is on Amazon in eBook and Paperback formats with the Audiobook soon to come, all under Tonja Condray Klein.

Both are also at the Dayton Montgomery County Public Library in Dayton Ohio too for FREE! These are my ministries to reach those that some churches don’t seem to care about reaching. I am a highway/byway Christian who wants to ‘snatch souls out of the fire’ to see as many as the Lord our God calls to be Saved, Delivered, Healed, Filled, Called, and READY! Blessings!

“Free American Christian Men & Women Need To Vote To Save America!” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©11/04/2024

The percentages on even the most trustworthy media claims that both Christian Men and Christian Women are NOT VOTING! Even many other groups of MEN aren’t voting either. What in the world is causing this lack of concern in 2024? We are NOT LEAVING HERE until the final pieces of the prophetic puzzle are laid and that means we will be STUCK with whatever government we get UNTIL that last piece is placed! You CANNOT let excuses, lack of concern, or misplaced mindset that you aren’t important enough to vote keep you from it. YOU ARE NEEDED! There have been so many men that have been de-masculinized by rhetoric meant to make you feel powerless in this country and the world. DON’T let them take away YOUR VOTE! You might not like Trump, but he is our ONLY choice to STAY FREE!

I’m a Christian, Independent, and Non-Conforming Individualist. I don’t vote because some preacher tells me to for anyone I don’t know what they stand for that affects me. I vote for what I know the Christian Holy Bible says since I read it and study it. I vote for what I know my United States Constitution and Bill of Rights say since I read it and know it. I vote what I have learned from reading history from B.C. to A.D. about various governments as what works and what ALWAYS FAILS. A Constitutional Democratic Republic is the ONLY government type in this world that gives the least of us the most instead of only making those in power remain in power until WE HAVE NOTHING. We have the Middle Class to help the Lower climb and keep the Upper in check. This is WHY IT WORKS! Please don’t let lies fool you!

The vitriol that has been ongoing for years now is being shoved down your throat and meant to BLIND AND DUMB you to the point you can’t think for yourself. THAT is the way of ALL the other types of government that uses these tactics to make individuals no longer be one. Please don’t follow the mass hysteria being shouted at you that are NOT FACTS! READ for yourself. They have tried to program you so you can’t LEARN the FACTS. They teach you WHAT to think not HOW. You need to break FREE and VOTE so we can STOP them from destroying AMERICA! If you aren’t a Christian, you still need to stop them from turning our country into something you can’t ever be free in.

MEN OF AMERICA – VOTE TRUMP! WOMEN OF AMERICA – VOTE TRUMP! CHRISTIANS OF AMERICA – VOTE TRUMP! OTHER FAITHS IN AMERICA – VOTE TRUMP! This is the ONLY WAY OUR FREEDOM KEEPS REIGNING IN AMERICA! I have tried to be non-political and focus on my Christian calling. Finding others claiming to be ‘Christian’ voting for those that stand AGAINST ALL WE TRY TO PROTECT has changed that focus for such a time as this! For Jesus and America, I will try to be the modern Esther! I will fight to interfere with the killing of the American Dream and the American Spirit. I will fight to bring the FACTS TO ALL! Given my ability to read, write, and think for myself is something my ancestors fought to have for ALL OF US!

I’m praying for ALL Americans that want to be FREE to WAKE UP to what is going on and VOTE FOR OUR FREEDOM! Trump is NOT perfect or the Messiah either, but he IS the ONLY CHOICE to KEEP YOU FREE NOW! Please don’t let the hidden government forces win against WE THE PEOPLE! The main media is TELLING YOU LIES! Don’t believe them because they are NOT giving you the FACTS. If you want FACTS, FREEDOM, A FINANCIAL RECOVERY AND A WAY TO ENJOY LIFE AGAIN! MEN OF ALL AGES – VOTE TRUMP! WOMEN OF ALL VOCATIONS – VOTE TRUMP! THOSE WITH KIDS – VOTE TRUMP! THOSE WITHOUT KIDS – VOTE TRUMP! Trump will be the PRESIDENT FOR ALL OF AMERICA! Let’s Make America Great Again Together!

I don’t know if this will reach anyone in time, but I can pray it will.

“Book ‘1984’ is Alive and Well in 2023!” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©04/20/2023

I hadn’t read the book ‘1984’ by George Orwell for some reason, but after finishing book FARENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury I decided to read the other. Book ‘451’ bothered me with what happened in it, but it was trying to get the readers to see they had to keep it from happening in reality. Book ‘1984’ ALARMED me. I’m seeing things being done NOW that reminds me what had been done even before my time. Some things had been removed from daily interactions that I hadn’t realized until the pandemic happened. Reality has startled me to the point that I’m praying for the Rapture (removing) of Christian believers to happen MUCH SOONER. Some governments have done what’s in book ‘1984’ – rewriting ALL former history every time it went against leader’s ideals. It might have or be happening in America too.

Does anyone else understand that if real history keeps being rewritten until the oldest that lived through that time are gone then that would give leaders the ability to have people live a perpetual today from now on? By them not knowing what real past was before it was altered, it would also mean that the present would be a continual past without real futures. I shook my head as I read about the main character going over the events in his ‘Oceania’ that included America in novel, and it gripped my heart with the growing understanding that the real America is about one step away from that happening! News only lasts per cycle, and sometimes one side is told over and over again without a counter side to denounce it. When did we get to this point of one-party rule? The McCarthy era is the closest I remember noted, but we might be close again.

Book ‘1984’ was written in 1949, way before I was born in 1972, but the 1984 in my lifetime didn’t seem to be anything like the book spoke about since I lived through the Reagan era that seemed prosperous to me then and even still. I didn’t know I was actually poor. Both of my parents were old and on social security, so getting reduced or free lunches simply meant to me that we were not ‘well-to-do’. My father always worked until he retired and my mother worked then was a housewife who also babysat other local kids. I actually thought we were ‘middle class’, but we were NOT! I never lacked food, clothing, or toys, but we didn’t have cable or a car. Neither parent had a driver’s license, but I didn’t think it was odd. My older out of state sister and older local brother had cars and helped, but we usually travelled by bus or cab.

Book ‘1984’ made me realize what is happening in America by those trying to make the poorest and middle class no longer be able to afford basic transportation since it would place them under direct control of government like the one in the book did! Trying to outlaw affordable cars, cooking conveniences, and other every day items that make life normal to those they consider UNDER them politically or socially is a slap in the face to regular Americans. Those ‘rulers’ might not see me as being ‘as good as’ them, but I know I AM as good or better than most of them since I KNOW many things these ‘rulers’ are trying to STEAL from the HISTORY of our COUNTRY and the WORLD! Changing meanings of real words and deleting some completely like in the book made me livid since THAT has already started in America now!

When a politician uses ‘totalitarianism’ as a definition for those who support the United States of America and its Constitutional Democratic Republic with the rights afforded to ALL citizens then that politician is using the SAME tactic that the three leaders in book ‘1984’ did to keep the poor as manageable as possible and by not letting them succeed to go beyond the status the higher group decided by continuing an ongoing war to keep those a little bit higher in their hierarchy to accept the revised history of the ‘leaders’ to make them remain in the present by revising the past to not show how bad things HAD changed then got worse under them – to STOP people from seeing REALITY. Those who were in the middle class in America before are now the lower middle class and forced lower. ‘Management’ is now some ‘leaders’ plan.

So America citizens now actually WANT to become like book ‘1984’ in 2023? Yes, that book IS fiction, but it is based on actual known governments and ALSO meant as a CAUTIONARY WARNING to those who want to keep their own freedoms and those of others. America used to be the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave where we cared about each other as citizens. The way many politicians seem now in 2023is making me see shades of book ‘1984’ more every day! No, some things that happened in the book haven’t yet, BUT it seems like some ‘leaders’ are taking THEIR power almost to the point those in book ‘1984’ did. THAT IS FRIGHTENING. Yes, I want a strong leader, but NOT a collective solipsist! We all NEED TO UNDERSTAND what those in power don’t want us to even notice right now.

One of the main things about the ‘leaders’ in book ‘1984’ was that they wanted people to NOT be educated. The ‘Proles’ or lower class people couldn’t be given that choice since if people could read and remember their real history of countries, then they might want more than the flimsy existence given by those in power that don’t want anyone to rise up above a born station in life. WAKE UP PEOPLE! America is NOT supposed to be ruled by a caste system! We are to be FREE with the given rights to LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS! Reading is PURE FREEDOM! Learning Mathematics, Science, and Proven History is FREEDOM! The ONLY books NOT to be allowed should be for children that have ADULT situations those innocents should not know yet! Other than that… READ, READ, READ!!!

The new digital system they are trying to institute for America is just ANOTHER way to TRACK you and STOP your FREEDOM to spend YOUR MONEY for what YOU deem as being YOURS. In book ‘1984’, the ‘leaders’ of those three governments only allowed some things for certain people who were then forced to get stuff off of a black market. A THOUGHT CRIME was an issue that could lead to a person being ‘vaporized’ (killed) if someone was suspected of NOT thinking like everyone else. I don’t want ANYONE thinking they could control MY THOUGHTS. They would soon find I’d NEVER be a pawn for lies or history-changing. I know OUR country’s History and FACTS no matter what could be said is the exact opposite of an ACTUAL MEANING. You can outlaw a majority of words, but MANY would KNOW!

Some in power want to decrease your intelligence to control you. DON’T LET THEM! READ as much as you can on books explaining the evils of Totalitarian rule. IT IS NOT what America has or wants now. Every belief system needs to have FREEDOM for followers to worship their gods whether Buddhist, Muslim, Chi, Gandhi, Hare Krishna, Wiccan, Jew, or Christian as protected by the United States of America Constitution. I’m a Christian and speak of my Faith without discounting someone else’s rights. We can agree to disagree and not try to kill each other. Even though I believe Jesus Christ is the only Way to Heaven and Salvation, I will share with respect and pray for anyone. THAT is inclusivity in America! People of various beliefs found this place of worship freedom. It needs to REMAIN that way!

This Opinion Editorial is meant to WARN you as an American citizen. Things and Freedoms are being taken from us almost daily, and those in power are trying to take away things that make our lives be bearable and enjoyable without a real reason for their tampering… it is actual TYRANNY! As I’ve written what seems ten million times, my FATHER fought and BLED for THIS COUNTRY in WORLD WAR II, and his brother, MY UNCLE DIED for this country too. Taking away MY FREEDOM is NOT an option. Many of the American Churches are being seen as real terrorist threats! THAT IS INSANE! AMERICANS have a RIGHT to their RELIGION that NO OFFICIAL can stop regular practices of as long as they are not physically hurting or personally maligning an actual individual person!

The story in the book ‘1984’ is something NO ONE should want to happen to the greatest bastion of Democracy in the world that the United States of America has been ever since the founding. Did we make mistakes for years that we aren’t proud of and have tried to rectify? YES! Do we try to learn from that and do better going forward? Many of us are trying, but there are always those that do bad things to keep power at the ruination of others. We have to FIGHT that by voting faithfully, protesting legally, and helping each community to be as good as they can become no matter their color, race, ethnicity, background, religion, or political party. WE THE PEOPLE are NOT as divided as some keep telling you. China might be preparing for WAR against Taiwan and Russia is still against Ukraine. WAR was used like this in book.

You don’t have to have a Political Science degree to see what is going on if you read enough, watch all you can, and listen to the undercurrent words being used that are not meaning what they always have meant before. They are just changing the meaning of words, terms, and even historical records! This is what was done in book ‘1984’ to solely keep people under the ‘rulers’ from knowing REALITY! Some ‘leaders’ are trying to do that now in America. It might seem like some ‘groups’ are doing things for ‘freedom’s’ sake, but they actually are re-classifying things that many know are NOT what is REAL or the consequences of WHAT they are doing. I don’t want to lose what I have already to allow the endless wars that some keep escalating, but then again whether China or Russia, NUCLEAR WAR is NOT an Option!

Could a bomb landing on the USA be what explains why millions to billions of people disappear all of a sudden? It could maybe be used to explain the actual Christian Rapture that could happen as soon as the last person to accept Jesus Christ as Savior and the last Israeli meant to return to Jerusalem first happens, and both of those could happen at any time. With the countries aligning like they are on 04/19/2023, I don’t know if we are going to be here for much longer. I don’t want anyone to suffer, but things are going to get really destructive, and I want everyone to know Jesus Christ before you miss your chance. He died FOR YOU. He knows YOU. He wants YOU to KNOW HIM. I don’t know how much time we do have, but please don’t waste time. I don’t know what we’ll have to go through before we are supernaturally rescued.

Like I mentioned before, the digital currency is NOT something we want, but it is another step towards what the anti-Christ leader will use to enslave everyone because he will claim to be ‘god’ and the one of humanity’s origins. THIS IS A LIE, SO DO NOT TAKE THE CURRENCY THAT PROCLAIMS YOU ACCEPT HIM. I can only hope Christians and Messianic-Jews are removed before the jailing, flogging, torture, and executions begin in all but one or two countries. America might not even be here by then IF a bomb is lobbed on us, but if America is and believers in Christ are gone, then Israel will have no support against what is going to happen against them according to Isaiah and other prophetic writings. Americans must try to halt the descent into Marxism then Totalitarianism. Democracy will die if we let it.

If you understand what’s going on and want to possibly escape some of this mess before things go down a path to destructive judgements on humanity, then read Romans 8, Psalm 51, and Isaiah 53. Once believing then pray, “Heavenly Father of Creation, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ. I believe He is Your Only Son Who came in human flesh to give His life in my place for my sins that is in my blood at birth then rose again from the dead for my soul restoration then returned to Heaven to pray over me until He returns to take me to safety before judgment falls on Earth. Forgive me, help me to be what You saw I could become, and give me strength to serve You. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen!” If you prayed this and meant it in your heart then YOU ARE NOW SAVE BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH! Welcome…

If you don’t have a Cristian Holy Bible, you can go to https://www.blueletterbible.org/ and read Isaiah, Jeremiah, Acts, I Corinthians, Ephesians, and Revelation to begin. I suggest the King James Version, but a new NIV is really good too with translations that stay true. You can also check out my Faith website if you read this somewhere else where I post to read other things I’ve written at: https://www.tribulationhelp.com. May Jesus Christ bless you, keep you safe, and help you to reach as many as you can in the time we have left in these last days before the Grace Dispensation or Church Age comes to a close as was prophesied thousands of years ago. Christians should reach out with Love, Understanding, Truth, and Compassion to each person He places in your path to be His Ambassador. Blessings Wished! ~TK~

“One ‘Page’ Away From FAHRENHEIT 451 in America…” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©02/21/2023

I read FAHRENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury sometime between 1985 and 1990. I bought the E-book and just read it again in 2023. Although I remembered what it was basically about, I was astounded by the fact it was from, 70 years ago in 1953! The fact that it is even MORE realistic NOW than back then makes it even more alarming for me. I looked at my bookcases at home and felt fear of what it would mean for me personally if my beloved paperbacks were burned, especially since many can’t be replaced by no longer being in print or E-Book formats now. It would mean I’d never be able to read them again, and THAT IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I’m a writer of my stories and an AVID READER of others’. If someone showed up with a flamethrower to torch my collection, I’d interfere violently.

The woman who collapsed in the house with her books that the ‘firemen’ were burning was someone I related to completely and was in tears over, but then I GOT ANGRY. I understood her dying with her books because ‘firemen’ and local government in the book were against her so she must have thought she’d rather die than live without the books she loved; unfortunately, for any who would try to burn my books, I wouldn’t burn with them unless I took the ‘firemen’ with me and only if I didn’t have any other choice. I’d probably try to do what Guy Montag did to the ‘firemen’ in some way BEFORE any of my books were burned. Even if a book is considered ‘evil’, I’m NOT for book-burning. I’ll cite Henry Jones, “…morons like yourself should try READING books instead of BURNING them!” He is COMPLETELY right!

My point is that even though we haven’t come to THAT point YET, I can see it happening sooner than I thought possible a decade ago. FAHRENHEIT reminded me that once we lose freedom to read former and present books as the written word that I was taught to embrace even in my generation X education, we face the threat turning into a nightmare should the government turn against us and we fail to protect our rights legally. TO READ MEANS YOU KNOW REAL FACTS! Yes, I write fiction, but I research reality too. I read a lot of fiction and nonfiction by writers in various genres. I might be more eclectic than some, but when one to two generations after me can’t read what I did in third grade at age 8 then this is distressing and could be the beginning of the major decline for cherished intellectual learning in America!

READING IS FREEDOM! Whether I’m reading Graham Hancock archaeological nonfiction, Christine Feehan paranormal romance fiction, the Christian Holy Bible nonfiction, or Ray Bradbury science fiction, I find facts from eras and research represented. Some people claim fiction is lies so no facts exist in them, but I’ve read historical books citing mythological stories from before the time of antiquity or the written word in cuneiform text with archaeological finds to question if worldwide ‘tales’ are that off-base with actual history. If you can’t READ the books now, then how can you understand anything like the histories of the world or the way our government is supposed to protect citizens with what OUR RIGHTS ARE? I’m not going to trust ANYONE to tell me ANY of those things. I will READ it ALL for myself!

Verbal history happened before writing began. When it comes to various places around the world, writing didn’t develop as quickly as it did with others, so verbal ‘stories’ were passed on from generation to generation until writing was learned. One of the books that tell this reality is THAT’S WHAT THE OLD ONES SAY by Chief Joseph RiverWind. Not only does it explain how Native American tribes passed on their history verbally, it also shows their relating of it through centuries to millennia verifies historical accounts, the Jewish Torah, and Christian Holy Bible. There are many reputable books that bring history into better understanding from research and artefacts found more recently than what we had only two centuries ago. How can we let children, grandchildren, family, or community NOT be able to read at all in 2023?

If you haven’t taken the time to read FAHRENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury, then I suggest you find it in a library while you still can or get paperback, E-Book, or audiobook all available on Amazon. It has several curse words so it’s not religious, and it has various books mentioned that I don’t agree with, but it has a message that Americans NEED in 2023. One kid I know in my neighborhood told me he can’t read, and it broke my heart since he’s even older than I was when I got the box set of Narnia books by C.S. Lewis for Christmas and began reading them in third grade. Covid-19 pandemic put learning on hiatus, but I’m not sure that is the reason for this loss of ability. Gen-Z can’t seem to read, write, do math, or even understand the sciences that my ninety-one year-old mother learned before she reached eighth grand long ago!

I read books by people I don’t agree with on some things but at least agree with on something, and I think that’s a way to stretch your understanding of other viewpoints that helps you to become knowledgeable about more than only the things you are comfortable with learning. I’ve read things that went against something that I knew as a fact or believed in personally as proven truth but carelessly discounted without evidence supporting another viewpoint or theory. THIS lack of being able to examine more than one viewpoint or piece of evidence on any given subject then becomes an incomplete conclusion and the beginning of ideological indoctrination used by government systems like socialism, communism, and totalitarianism. WE MUST BE ABLE TO READ BOOKS TO KNOW THE FACTS OF REALITY! If not, we lose all.

This could be WHY education is trying to NOT teach children to READ. If we don’t stand up and demand that all children are given the life-preserving education that previous generations were taught without compromise, then we will see America become more and more like the FAHRENHEIT country that made BOOKS illegal to read or own. America CANNOT allow this to happen in 2023 or any time in our future! I might not like or agree with what some books say or teach, but like FREEDOM OF SPEECH we need FREEDOM OF READING for adults! Age-appropriate restrictions are still necessary to protect kids, but that should be the ONLY censorship. Books from the past might have speech that we don’t agree with anymore, but THAT is what shows we have LEARNED from the past enough to know things changed.

A large amount of young adults and even adults right now in 2023 can’t read books that were read in elementary school only decades ago and can’t understand the Declaration of Independence, United States Constitution, or the Bill of Rights. One of the things used by despots and ruling classes in history was NOT allowing the people of their countries to be able to have education at all so they wouldn’t be able to rise above the ‘class’ the rulers deemed as acceptable… they wanted and still want servants or slaves. That infuriates me since America fought against that kind of mentality to be free to choose our own government laws. Now I’m seeing what should alarm everyone. Protect your rights to keep burning of your books from happening in America… or you might have to protect them with a flamethrower by yourself…

“United States of Akkad in 2022 A.D. instead of 2200 B.C.?” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©08/10/2022

I’ve been reading a lot of history books about the years of Antiquity and Ancient Empires including Sumerians, Hittites, and Akkadians since I traced one of my family lineages to the Macedonian/Turkey area in 720 BCE historically. When I came across what has been thought to have happened to the Akkadian Empire along with others before in same area at the same time as the Egyptians, I was shocked that Akkad seemed to disappear from the Earth after being a main empire for hundreds of years before. A three hundred year drought happened to cause deaths and then forced relocation due to the loss of crops, water, and lack of ability to keep people alive let alone prosperous as the empire had been for hundreds of years. Weather cycle drought and a main volcanic eruption caused their demise to happen in antiquity.

I had an “Oh, Lord Jesus, could the major drought in the United States in 2022 be a precursor to us like it was to Akkad in 2200 B.C when their leaders didn’t consider prosperity was getting ready to be taken away violently?” Weather cycles has been happening for centuries as noted by various histories, and they still happen around the world today even though ‘climate change’ is the current term that is NOT what they claim. Could this once prosperous country of America see a similar catastrophe happen here as it did to Akkad in Mesopotamia almost four thousand years ago? I’m sure those Akkadian, Macedonian, and Egyptian leaders hadn’t thought the Atlantic current temperature would become so low that rains wouldn’t fall for centuries. Food became scarce, fighting for survival began, and empires couldn’t recover.

The United States of America in 2020 had become energy independent and an exporter of oil to other countries, had businesses with goods to meet the needs of American consumers by stable transportation, and had been enjoying the most robust economy in American history… until Covid-19 became our volcano. Government policies quickly took our economy down more when it halted our main export that made us become dependent again within two years, but Covid-19 had an even steadier descent factor. American liberties were sacrificed to try to save lives since people wanted to live and help others live too. We didn’t realize that personal rights and American resources were being taken away as much since deaths from the worldwide pandemic made living become more important than freedoms that weren’t gone yet.

In the United States of America in 2022, we’re seeing our own country in a 27% drought in July with wheat crops failing and the Hoover Dam losing 158 feet of water as dangerously low! Gas prices are extremely high due to the policies that stopped us from being energy independent with our gas production that had been steady. Our transportation chain has slowed and is causing shortages, and if more crops fail then we’ll see even more increases to costs of main foods that will hurt middle and lower income Americans. Russia war with Ukraine might have caused some of our problems, but leaders have been spending OUR money and giving away OUR oil! Is America NOW Akkad in 2022 CE? Our leaders seem just as unaware of the drastic consequences from their actions as the Akkad leaders were unaware back in 2334 B.C.E.!

Guiana, Shri Lanka, and the Netherlands went ‘green’, gave up ‘farming’, and began starving. In 2018, France had riots when they tried to do the same thing. With these developments the world seems against “Modern Civilization”. If you read Hourly History book MESOPOTAMIAN HISTORY: SUMERIANS, HITTITES, AKKADIAN EMPIRE, ASSYRIAN EMPIRE, BABYLON then you’d know the ancients discovered ways to do things 4100 years earlier than people in 1400 CE England who didn’t. Records about Mesopotamian empires weren’t even found until “Cuneiform” tablets in the19th century and were translated. We now know that the empires kept homes warm, waste away from the homes and water sources, and farming plentiful to the point they exported food… until a volcano and a drought.

While I agree with intelligent and responsible conservation of this planet, some things being forced on the world in 2022 as the ONLY ways to keep ‘climate change’ from happening are more ignorant than the ways that the medieval society had in their time – Bubonic Plague, people! Proper water temperatures ARE needed for RAIN to produce FOOD, and long times of DROUGHT makes that impossible like it did with Mesopotamia about 6122 years ago. So WHY let a non-democratic foreign country buy OUR farmland near air force bases? We have a drought in 2022 for our farmers to deal with already! We risk NEVER being independent from countries that want to take freedoms we have left to then try to RULE OR STARVE us. Is this what the American people want because we are too afraid to say, “NO!” to China?

You can call me whatever horrid name you want, but I have read FACTS to PROVE what I take my time to write. Is it possible I accepted another person’s findings that seemed verified but have been refuted since? It’s possible, but I do have eyes, ears, and a functioning intellect to help me to decide what I choose to stand with when others only have blank concepts that make NO SENSE, emotional platitudes that PROVE NOTHING, and loud voices that only have those two things that are without REAL substance for any intelligent person to accept it. I READ A LOT. I read 113 books in 2020, 93 books in 2021, and 51 books to date in 2022. I don’t take anyone’s opinion before doing my own research of a subject, compare content to known facts, and accept what is rooted in REALITY. I’m not perfect, but I do try to be verifiable.

IF the drought taking place in America this summer lasts for more than a couple years and is said to be caused by ‘climate change’ then I’ll check on weather cycles to see if they explain how weather cycles were responsible instead. IF it was ‘climate change’ as claimed would cause it in our time then I’ll admit it, but I know we wouldn’t last more than a few years let alone hundreds like Akkadians did 4222 years ago. Considering that solar panels and wind mills CANNOT DO what supporters claimed they would in a national capacity, I won’t hold my breath. Fossil fuels (Natural Gas, Coal, and Oil) ALL are used for electricity NEEDED for Windmills AND Solar Panels to work. If we stop using Fossil Fuels we will have NO electricity. NO electronics, heating, cooling, or food storage. Mesopotamia did better on 3 out of 4!

The Russian war in Ukraine has been a current crisis, but now China is trying to secure Taiwan and tried to stop our Speaker of the House from visiting by actually giving a death threat if she did. America’s government isn’t trying to protect our national borders, farming land, energy sources, or even the prosperity of the American people coming out of the pandemic. Instead they are causing a present recession and passing a bill that will steal money from the middle and lower income Americans with tax increases for many years to pay for ideological projects that will weaken this country even more. With the drought already pointing towards hard times for regular people when it comes to just feeding their families, you would think our leaders would try to SECURE what AMERICANS need to survive. They refuse to do it.

If we’d all take a serious look at the historical and archaeological reasons and outcomes of what happened to the Akkadians in 2200 B.C. then we’d be able to see a correlation and try to CHANGE COURSE for America in 2022 A.D. Leaders need to STOP doing the things that make NO sense and makes America WEAKER with their failing policies and impossible allocations of this country’s resources without America’s best interest at all. Leaders need to STOP letting us become dependent on foreign products and resources. Americans needs to create them LOCALLY so we can take care of each other! If not, Americans will suffer a lack of food, medicine, heat, and electronic components used daily. Is that the kind of life any American wants? Are we going to let unaware or uncaring leaders destroy American lives this way now?

I don’t know if the House can stop the horrendous bill going through, but if it passes then our freedoms, those in the middle and lower incomes especially, will be harmed. I’m debt-free, but I have family who can barely afford food or living essentials, and they work now or have worked and retired. If you want to drink the free Kool-Aid some politicians are handing out from both sides, then be my guest. I won’t drink anything they hand to me. Politics are a poison. I hate it and the people who serve as high-priests or priestesses to their ideological religion KILL. “FREEDOM!” is my cry, and I don’t mean chaos that disrespects this country’s laws. I mean JUSTICE by our Constitution with Law and Order for the people by the people; FOR EVERY COLOR, GENDER, OCCUPATION, FAITH, AND SOCIAL STRATA!

ONE NATION UNDER GOD INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! That is something I STILL BELIEVE exists in 2022. We just have a bunch of Akkadian-minded leaders who can’t see a volcano or drought bearing down on America in 2022. I SEE THEM! Can’t you? I really want to think that most people in America have at least a BIT of common sense. I’m hoping ALL of you that do will prove it in the upcoming election. Our leaders are not seeing what common people are very clearly, so we could actually think they are technically completely BLIND. I don’t want to be like Akkad. There is a possibility as a Christian that I MIGHT be gone BEFORE these mid-term elections. If not, then I’ll “Sound the alarm!” before that volcano or drought overtakes America completely. I promise to try!

“When I was a Child I thought like a Child… I was Colorblind AND Patriotic!” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein(c)02/17/2022

I began learning to sing when I was about four or five years old at home with my mother as we listened to Christian and even some popular secular music like Elvis that we would sing together to while my father was at the Dayton Mall in Centerville, Ohio every Saturday. We watched movies. We watched news. We watched programs of drama, romance, action, and even mysteries. That I was born September 1st in 1972 is something that I’ll be thankful happened for as long as I’m in this world. I believed the United States of America was the best and most loving of all countries with freedoms that we’d never lose in my lifetime. I still believed all of those until 2020. I’ve posted many spiritual warnings in my Op-Ed’s to try to get the reality of what we are facing and WHY it is so important to know.

I’m a born-again Spirit-filled Christian believer, but I am not a religious fanatic or political activist; I vote my faith. I vote my personal convictions. I vote for my voice to be heard in government by the people I choose to support. ALL of that indicates a Constitutional Democratic Republic upheld by laws agreed upon FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE. NOT Totalitarian. NOT Dictatorship. NOT Oligarchy. NOT Socialist. NOT Communist. There are enough types of those governments around the world in present day, and they have been noted in documented history to show NONE of them from before have ever been as FREE as the United States of America. EVERY people over time have practiced slavery over other people not of their race or creed. That doesn’t excuse it, but every group is guilty of it.

I don’t judge by color; I acknowledge by character. I don’t choose friends by religion; I have friends of almost all different ones while I hope to show the love of Christ while still respecting their choices even if my heart breaks as I pray for them. I still believe that the United States of America IS the most FREE when compared to the rest of the world now; I simply don’t trust most of the leaders in power in 2022 AT ALL. I’m not a conspiracy theorist; I’m being honest. I’m not a partisan; both parties have bad apples trying to destroy all that I love about MY COUNTRY. I was born here. My father fought and bled in World War II and my uncle died in it. I’m a law-abiding American citizen who loves the Declaration of Independence, Francis Scott Keyes’ National Anthem, 50-State American flag, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

When I was a child I believed that as an American it was my job as a student to learn all I could about our history to become a productive adult who would understand how our freedom was fought for and how we keep the people free by not allowing leaders to take over illegally and without the approval of the legal citizens. This is COMMON SENSE. It is NOT some religious, political, or extremist viewpoint; this is the AMERICAN viewpoint and has been before I was born. I haven’t been brain-washed in school like some in the latter generations have been or at least were subjects for them to be through propaganda instead of actual LEARNING THE DOCUMENTED FACTS. I’ve seen what some in the Millennials group were being taught with my own eyes, and I would bet my bottom dollar it is getting much worse in 2022 now.

I was given scholarships and grants for my 4.3 GPA and ACT/SAT scores to go to college. I’ve told some of this before, but this is a VERY IMPORTANT FACT. I was in college after I graduated 4th in my Northridge High School class of 1990 in Dayton, Ohio. I was taking Computer Science as my major and Teaching as my minor. I was going to code in more than ‘Basic’ and teach History in Middle or High School. I got sick, missed too many classes, and withdrew. I went to work and then got my Webpage Development Certificate at Edison State Community College in 1999 that I still use to this day. I’m PRO-EDUCATION; I’m ANTI-PROPOGANDA. I’ve SEEN class homework since I graduated and tried to help my niece then her children that are my great-nieces and great-nephew; their classes barely had ANY FACTS.

I’m a Christian who supports historical humanities even if they aren’t seen as seemly by some in various Christian communities, but just like Freedom of Speech is supposed to protect my right to proclaim my faith and beliefs without any fear then it also applies to those I don’t agree with so we all have an open right to disagree without aggression or violence. I’m PRO-SCIENCE if that Science is PROVEN and DOCUMENTED; I’m very emotional about many things, but I don’t say that what I feel is FACT because my feelings are NOT Objective, and yet Science is supposed to be PROVEN FACT. I took Chemistry in High School, but I still learned basic biology and chromosome absolutes. I also know that there has NEVER been a racist mathematical equation unless it was a word problem a racist teacher created – MATH IS PURE!

What is my point with all of these examples? I WANT PROVEN EDUCATION! I was going to be teaching kids at one point, but in 2022 I’m actually THANKFUL I DIDN’T become a teacher. I NEVER could have let a teacher union force me to teach LIES to the children in my care or lose my career at their discretion to make my education cost me more than the money wasted if that had happened. I would have QUIT before betraying my compass of right and wrong as well as what would have actually been ILLEGAL according to laws at MY TIME in school. I know many teachers who taught and inspired me would have felt the same way and would have REFUSED to teach LIES if they’d faced it. I still applaud any teacher today who IS standing up for the FACTS and refusing to tell LIES to their students in 2022!

Even though I didn’t get to teach History classes in schools, I at least was able to be a Sunday School, Children’s Church, and Vacation Bible School teacher over the last 37 years. What I taught any of those kids over the years all have Documented secular history from many countries as well as Documented first-person writings other than the Holy Bible, and NONE of them could be refuted unequivocally over the course of thousands of years so far. Some might try now, but I hope any parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, or great-aunt/great-uncle will stand up for FACTS and FAITH against the lies being forced upon those in school and even in some churches. Whether you agree with my points-of-view or any or all of my teachings, for the love of everything factual, PLEASE PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN FROM THE LIES NOW!

I might have some ‘out of this world’ ideas about Christianity and Historical records that I write about currently, but what is happening in schools is too important to let doctrinal disagreements keep us from addressing this by standing against their attempts to indoctrinate (brain-wash) children against our country and our way of life to protect FREEDOM. As a Christian I don’t want to see more violence like we witnessed in the 2021 riots. I will defend myself and those I love if someone attacks, but I want for people to try to LEGALLY change policies, schools, or churches. If they won’t then it might mean changing physical locations to where those policies are not being taught. I have great-great nieces in school and great-great nephews who will be in a couple more years, so this is something I’m praying about now more often.

I’ve been trying to share this information with their parents and all of those who read this so all of you can keep watch to protect those innocent children from being targeted. In the countries that the United States has been to war with before I was even born, the policies, practices, and propaganda have been used to take the children during that time away from the influence of their parents to get them to become wards of that government. DON’T YOU SEE THAT COULD HAPPEN IN THE USA? I’m not talking about one political party over another one either; I’m talking about being wary of ANY GROUP trying to make you relinquish your children’s minds to their teaching without your consent or specific knowledge of lessons being given. During this pandemic some parents finally saw some of what I’m talking about.

I research any topic I write or talk about before I even consider posting my opinion. I don’t have a degree in any subject except webpage development. I READ. I LISTEN. I WATCH. I TAKE NOTES. I COMPARE. THEN I WRITE. That is still part of the Scientific Method that I read about when in school, but now? I don’t know if they ever get beyond being indoctrinated and brain-washed to become little mouth-pieces for their education controller. Like I stated before, I commend the teachers who refuse to be that, so this is not meant to be toward you personally. For those teachers who are doing that or even worse now I have a word of unsolicited advice – STOP. Before you damage even one more precious child, STOP. Before you tell even one more lie, STOP. Parents – Reclaim your children peacefully and walk away.

Fairfax County, Virginia and even San Francisco, California have shown they are standing up for the freedom of their children against mandated masks and class content that is not proper education according to their views. I don’t have a problem with books being available to ADULTS under any subject matter due to the Freedom of Speech each American ADULT has the right to claim. Teachers giving lessons on subjects to students of my time (1975-1990) would have been FIRED for teaching it then, but they have been teaching it in 2022 until parents saw the reality of anti-American and what would have been called Pro-Racist teaching too that would have had teachers FIRED before! We need to teach these dark pasts of our country to learn how to NOT repeat it, but in 2022 some are now teaching students HOW to repeat it worse.

When I was a child I thought like a child. Please don’t let anyone else rob your children from that joy I still have in my memory of almost 50 years now. None of us are getting any younger in body, but we can keep one small part of our innocence as adults when we try to NOT let the children learn things they shouldn’t yet. They DO need to learn that OUR FREEDOM IS NEVER FREE. My father taught me that when he spoke about World War II, but he didn’t talk about that often since his brother was hit by a sniper in the Philippines and died. Dad was sent home early because of that death. HIS FREEDOM cost his brother’s life. Who do you know who died for yours in addition to Jesus Christ? I won’t meet them in this world now, but one day I might, and I truly hope that I’ve proven to all of them that MY FREEDOM was worth it all!

“Is The America I’ve Known Completely Gone Now?” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©08/29/2021

Abandoning our embassy, intelligence, weapons, and citizens in Afghanistan is the greatest defeat this country has ever faced in my lifetime of almost forty-nine years. I’m sure that those still living who are even older than I am are feeling the same way I do – enraged from being deceived and betrayed by our leaders. Our people in Afghanistan are in the middle of being left due to the worst military plan in our history that could lead to another situation like 1979 with more hostages. THAT is detrimental with how many American citizens and Afghan allies will all lose their lives!

I was only seven years old in 1979, so I didn’t completely understand what was happening back then. As I grew up learning history and became an adult, I watched policy mistakes made by different presidents at various times, but this seems like an actual calculated blow to every single American who has had anyone from their family serve this county in the military in any capacity! How can Americans sit in our safe homes, watch the news reporting these atrocities, and not react with anger, frustration, heartbreak, and absolute horror? Have we ALL lost perspective of what Freedom costs?

The fact that our government is FAILING to get OUR PEOPLE out, but INDIVIDUALS and GROUPS are now working to rescue people in ways that are sometimes being BLOCKED by OUR OWN agencies! Do our agencies work for the Taliban now? While I understand diplomacy is always a slippery slope of concessions, the way I’ve understood it for all of my learned years, WE DON’T NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS! Did our government officials miss day of class it was taught in a government college course? Or did the long-held policy just get lost in self-interest paperwork?

We NEED the A-Team! We NEED a team of LETHAL WEAPON Riggs’! We NEED a RED team who knows HOW to get IN, get OUR people, and get OUT with the attitude of a BLUE LOTUS! AMERICA WAS A COUNTRY OF ACTION FOR FREEDOM! Yes, the characters listed are fictional, but they were based on REALITY of what AMERICA USED to be able TO DO! I don’t want endless wars either and was for leaving Afghanistan, but THIS IS NOT how that SHOULD have been DONE! Do we need to cue the song, “We Gotta Get Out Of This Place” to get people moving?

My father would have been 108 this year, and if he was still living he’d be ticked as blazes over our service men and women even possibly being left behind without military making plans that actually made sense! He fought in WWII and lost his brother in it to a sniper, but it had NEVER been fought to end in this situation with Afghanistan now. Didn’t ANY of us LEARN from HISTORY? Oh, yeah, that’s right! Teachers don’t teach REAL HISTORY anymore. Most just teach approved indoctrination of NEVER thinking for your own self as an INDIVIDUAL! Yeah… that explains it all.

There are themes that I keep bringing up in my writing, and I apologize if I focus on certain ones too often, BUT some need to be repeated ad nauseam since more than one generation DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT THEM! Most Schools aren’t teaching them. Most people of any age aren’t reading books about them. News channels would rather tell their lies instead of even mentioning the TRUTH. If you don’t read on your OWN then you’ll NEVER know anything to explain WHY this evacuation from Afghanistan NEVER should have happened like it has. WE LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND!

I’m absolutely ASHAMED of what those in so-called charge are allowing to happen to OUR OWN! I agree with taking out all those that helped us for the last twenty years, but OUR PEOPLE SHOULD BE FIRST PRIORITY! I don’t have any kind of war degree, but come on! Even I have enough common sense to see what the actual events needed to be done before this idiocy had been allowed to happen: 1.) Destroy ALL paperwork so NO enemy gets any tactical date; 2.) Evacuate EVERY single AMERICAN; 3.) Destroy ALL armaments enemies could use; 4.) Withdraw OUR military!

IT’S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! This is LOGIC. Apparently, NO ONE in power has that! God Almighty, help us, because those in power won’t help anyone but themselves. They are trying to overpower our Democracy to turn America into a socialistic country. WE CAN’T LET THEM! EVERY AMERICAN needs to stand up and SCREAM, “NO! This is NOT right!” FOR THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE needs to not allow TYRANTS to take over! They are ALL trying to do THAT. How can you trust leadership willing to LEAVE OUR PEOPLE BEHIND? WE CAN’T! Help STOP it!

Some of our Patriots have taken their own steps to get OUR PEOPLE out. We might have even more doing it right now without public knowledge or even government involvement. I’m okay with that since the less that any of the powers that be know right now is a GOOD THING. We can’t trust most of the military big-wigs we’ve been seeing to actually DO anything since it’s become political theater. Clandestine operations like those portrayed in RED would probably BE the best solution, especially since they would not be in the pockets of politicians. GET THE PIG!

While I completely understand that movies are NOT what you base actual military strategies on, I still think that our veterans see themselves as embodying most of those personalities in real life. Current military for the most part must think they do too or they wouldn’t be doing their jobs right now. America leadership needs to get their proverbial heads out of their behinds and DO THEIR JOBS TOO! As a military daughter I REFUSE to accept leaving even 1 of our own people behind due to incompetence! THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE! Get them OUT… or ELSE.

What is ‘ELSE’? I hope it will be proper voting to express our viewpoints of how the Unites States of America needs to NOT be changed into the United Totalitarian States. Socialism or Communism isn’t acceptable EITHER. The ‘ELSE’ might come to actually physical force before we get the point across to the chaos-minded tyrants. I don’t want another Civil War, but I’m willing to die before I let the regimes that my father and uncle fought against in WWII take over MY AMERICA. Let’s try peaceful by contacting our officials and speaking out, but if that fails… then ELSE.

AMERICA NEEDS TO BRING OUR PEOPLE IN AFGHANISTAN HOME! This should have been begun in April or May, but since it wasn’t then we need to begin a strategic locating/securing/extracting mission for ALL those in Afghanistan that needs rescued. The excuse of theme not ‘registering’ makes me want to beat the crap out of those that have the gall to even say that. DOD should KNOW who is there and STILL needs EVACUATED. Terrorist excuses go only so far when we have 13 dead from the attack. Citizens, Afghans, Military OUT, then blow up left behind stuff!

When “How Can I Not” Becomes “Why Should I” – Part 3

By Tonja Condray Klein©03/11/2021

First of all, I’d like to make it perfectly clear that every opinion of action is not only towards all others who claim to be Christians but also to me. I read the Bible study by Anne Graham Lotz in the DECISIONS magazine from the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association March 2021 and was humbled as I read the scriptures she noted, saw the true beauty of the meaning to the Church of Jesus Christ, and wept as I repented of the times I had failed my Lord and Savior. THIS is how Revival truly begins. Judgement begins at the House of God! We need to listen to the Bible and the Holy Spirit.

It must have been increasingly depressing for those in captivity in the times of Daniel, Nehemiah, and Jeremiah in their land of Israel. How could they even think about speaking the words the Lord gave to them when their very lives were at risk? Yet they did. Over the course of history in this world, people of Judeo-Christian Faiths have had to do the same in the time of Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, and Tao. Now in 2021 America, we might come to the point we will have to stand in the midst of possible punishment if we hold true to what the Torah and Holy Bible says we have to speak as being truth.

Americans have enjoyed Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Assembly, and Freedom of Religion since its creation. I personally have never had to fear sharing what I know the Holy Bible says about any subject in discussion, but now? This might no longer be allowed by American citizens even in discussion if views are opposite those of special interest groups that will be ‘protected’ from anything they view as ‘hate speech’. Opposing views that don’t use degrading metaphors or titles should NEVER be tagged as ‘hate speech’. Freedom of Speech protects speech we don’t agree with for a reason.

If we lose the ability to discuss, debate, and agree to disagree while still allowing people to express their views as safe personally then our country WILL NO LONGER BE FREE. This should not only upset those of faith or any religious belief but also those of different backgrounds and groups that want the right to open representation. “No taxation without representation” was the cry of patriots before the American Revolution. Why should we be forced to not speak what we believe is truth because someone else doesn’t agree? We EACH should have our voices be heard and openly allowed!

“How can I not?” is my cry in 2021. We have so many in groups that call themselves churches that live by ‘Why should I?” since it is convenient to not give friction between others who might not agree with them. John the Baptist was a non-conforming individualist who prepared the way for Jesus Christ to then stand against the religious groups in His time for the TRUTH that HE IS. Christians need to understand that we are not called to be silent. Jesus made a point that if the ones praising Him were silenced then the very rocks would cry out. I WON’T LET A ROCK TAKE MY PLACE!

One of the latest bills that has already passed in the House of Representatives recently and still needs to pass in the Senate would be very negative to those who have conservative views by actually making it illegal to express those viewpoints. THIS is DANGEROUS to our FREEDOM. I might not be able to even post links to my personal op-eds on social media sites like I do now if this happens. While some wouldn’t care about it happening to me, how would YOU feel if something YOU believe in was on that list of things no longer allowed to even be spoken about publically?

This seems Orwellian, right? Welcome to 2021 in America! If ever Christians began to pray against these things, speak out to our leaders, and come together as a united front then IT IS NOW. How can we allow our own freedom-loving Democratic Republic to turn into the land of the bound and home of the repressed? WE CAN’T. Freedom of Speech needs to remain protected for ALL AMERICANS! That has been one of our pillars of society since 1776. Even a historical date is being hit with the freight train of biased lies. Students are no longer being taught documented facts of history.

I’ve mentioned my disregard for present-day teaching mandates, and I will continue to do so for as long as I have rights, but I don’t do it because I disdain education. I was going to college with Teaching as my Minor! I had the grades in high school to get grants and scholarships to go for a Major in Computer Science and a Minor in Teaching if I hadn’t been ill and had to withdraw. Education in important, but only if facts are represented in curriculum. I have read different grade homework that my great-nieces would get me to help them with, and I knew the facts I’d learned were replaced with lies.

I’ve also mentioned the non-fiction novel LIVE NOT BY LIES: A MANUAL FOR CHRISTIAN DISSIDENTS by Rod Dreher. If you are as concerned for America in 2021 as I am, I suggest you get this novel and read it for not only historical facts all over the world but also the parallels we need to be aware of with what is happening in our country. I’m actually angry. My father fought and bled in World War II, and his brother died in combat that had my father being sent home. The changes happening now are not only a slap to every single veteran then and now but to military families too.

I don’t want socialism. I don’t want communism. I don’t want an oligarchy. I don’t want an authoritarian state. I WANT THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC MY UNCLE DIED FOR AND MY FATHER FOUGHT TO KEEP! I won’t sit by and stay silent anymore just to ‘get along’. The Facts are the Facts. Our way of government has been the envy of others in this world for generations. IT WORKS. The only time it doesn’t is when egomaniacs in government try to take control over WE THE PEOPLE, and THAT doesn’t work for long. Americans have always been FREE-thinkers.

Why has this ‘free-thinking’ suddenly deteriorated? Brainwashing students from grammar school through college with non-factual classes, forcing workers to be re-educated at work on non-work subjects, and constant media coverage of every single possible social stance that goes against every single spiritual leaning of mankind – yes, that would do it. It’s been going on for YEARS behind the curtain, but it’s now being thrust front and center in our own living rooms. Hey, if we want free stuff with free money and free time from not working to do whatever we want then NO free-thinking!

There are quite a few really BAD words that I’d like to use right now – FREE SPEECH, LEGAL GUNS, OPEN FAITH, PAYING JOBS, PERSONAL HEALTHCARE, ATOMIC FAMILY, and BIBLICAL MARRIAGE. Oooh… REALLY BAD WORDS! At least they are for those currently trying to destroy our country. While a couple of those are terms used during my Generation-X or earlier, if you have read, listened, or watched conservative news then you’ll know each of them by now. The point is that we NEED to realize what is happening and what is at stake NOW.

Blow ye trumpet in Zion! Sound the alarm in thy holy mountain! As Christians we should be spiritual Watchers on the Wall of our country the way those in the Old Testament were physically for Israel. I’m not trying to incite panic or a need for fear, but we do need to be MINDFUL of reality within the confines of Biblical prophetic possibilities. America has kept other forms of government from overtaking us for decades, and it’s up to US of legal age and citizenship to make sure we do everything legal to oppose what leaders are trying to do to our country in 2021 to deny Americans our rights.

What can we do? PRAY. Intercessors for America (IFA) is a great source and meeting media for Christians to pray together digitally online or on the phone first Friday of the month, Tuesdays and Thursdays too right now. VOTE. Even though they are trying to pass bills that will make your vote no longer count, do it while you still can. SHARE. No matter what way you use to spread the Gospel and love of Jesus Christ, do it while you can with the understanding that time is of the essence like never before in this country. We need the ELIJAH of each generation to STAND now. ~TK~
