The fools and their counselor. A gospel satire.

In this gospel satire, the message points to the ways that the rich and powerful in these last days foolishly disregard the God of Heaven, and His commands given to His Son Jesus Christ for the people of the world.

And there are several powerful, rich, greedy leaders in the stories. One is the president of Malussia, then there is King MIGA, The third is The Lone Muck, and the final scenario is of a group of foolish leaders who are wanting to attack a tiny nation called Manusalem.

All these world leaders and billionaires have the same wise counselor. He's a tiny little man who is small in stature, but extremely wise. He's large in wisdom, knowledge and understanding. His counsel is so widely known that every great leader in the world seeks his advice.

His clients are found in at least three of the seven continents of the world. However, his wicked clients do not listen to his squeaky voice and constantly dismiss his every warning and every good advice he gives them. They have not learned from their predecessors, nor from the holy book of of the Christians. And therefore, they will all pay heavily in the end!

Under the veneer of the squeaky timid voice of this tiny man, there's a strong principled and courageous individual, who has steered many leaders to great successes over the years. However his wisest and most honorable clients have all passed on.

In this season when the wisdom of fools dominate the earth, and the rebellion and stubbornness of their foolish hearts override common sense, his wise counsel is often disregarded.

Recently he made a bold statement. He said, the follies of authoritarian leaders and billionaires in this season are unmatched in modern times as well as ancient times. In this season when ignorance is bliss he says, it is truly folly to be wise, the world has gone mad, and fools are rushing in, where wise men will never go!

The holy bible makes a damning indictment of the one who says there is no God, and of the one who refuses to consult God on all things. The bible calls him a fool.

We find it here in Psalm 14 And 1, where it says, 'The fool says in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done a abominable works, there is none that doeth good.'

We can therefore say that the fool might say things like, 'Their God has forsaken them, let us attack them. Or he might say something like, "God does not interfere in the matters of the world. We can do whatever we want, without fear." They may even say something ridiculous like, "I am wealthy, and powerful, and no matter what I do, it is okay with God, whoever He is!" And finally they might say, "I call upon Allah daily, He will always give me the victory!"

And so the first scene opens with a world class leader and president of the country known as Malussia. The president of Malussia had made a plan to attack his neighbor Ukulele. He had stationed troops on his neighbors borders pretending to merely be conducting military drills, and when he thought he had the element of surprise in his favor, he attacked his neighbor viciously.

He claimed that his plan was to make Malussia a great nation again. He wanted to make it the huge nation that it used to be. But his advisor said to him, "Sir, I'm not sure it is a good idea for you to attack Ukulele." And, he asked him why did he think so? Well, his advisor said, there are stern warnings in the holy scriptures that say you should not move your neighbor's boundary.

Listen to this scripture, he told the president, "You shall not move your neighbor's landmark, which the men of old have set," found in Deuteronomy 19 and 14.

He told the leader of Malussia that just in case we missed it the first time it is there in black and white in Deuteronomy 27 and 17, where it also says, "Cursed is the one who moves his neighbor's landmark. And all the people shall say amen. In other words, all the people shall abide by this.

Finally, the advisor said, if we missed the first and the second warnings, there is a third in Proverbs 23 and 10 which says, "Do not move the ancient landmark, nor enter the fields of the fatherless; for their redeemer is mighty; He will plead their cause against you."

And the adviser told the president that the God of Heaven does not like it when individuals and nations take their neighbors land.

The powerful leader shrugged his shoulders and refused to budge, because while pretending to campaign to make his country as great as it used to be before, this leader had a secret agenda. He really wanted to become the number one leader in the entire world, and he wanted to dominate the whole earth.

Meanwhile, he was busy interfering in the elections of many different countries, establishing himself as a powerful force in the earth. He was using cyber technology to promote propaganda in foreign countries in order to establish the leader that he wanted for that nation, thereby making allies in many nations.

So he paid no attention to his wise counselor, and unleashed a merciless attack on the nation of Ukulele, killing hundreds of thousands, and seizing as much of their property as possible. However, God strengthened the Ukulele people sending them help and they are continuing to fight valiantly to save their nation.

Our second scene opens with a counselor talking to one who aspires to be a king, and calls himself King MIGA. His name has been coined from The motto, "Make Imagawa grow apples." His country which is called, Imagawa, is one of the greatest countries in the world.

When King MIGA's wise counselor said, "Sir! I'm not sure that I like that name, 'MIGA." the king asked him why he said that? He told the king he felt that way, because it sounded too much like the word 'meager.' And this word meager means, small or too small. And he reminded his boss that his signature style was doing everything bigger and larger than any other.

In addition he told him, "You know that you are quite the opposite of meager. In every way that you present yourself you're richer than practically every man on the face of the earth, you're taller than most men, and more handsome than every man on planet earth. And what is more, your wisdom extends as far as the ocean. Therefore, I'm not sure that you want to be known by such a name.

Well King MIGA told him, it is too late! I have already bought the stationery, and my business cards, and all the campaign material. And I've already bought the hats, 200 million of them. And I want all of my supporters to have a MIGA hat. We've invested too much in the name to turn back at this point. Besides I like the sound of it.

Do not worry King MIGA said, there's no way I can lose with the stuff I use. I have all the Christians on my side, I have all the Jews on my side and you know that all the roughnecks, the racists, as well as all who love conspiracy theories and half truth are on my side. I have The Good, The Bad and The indifferent following me faithfully! And the Christians God is on my side, there's nothing to worry about. And what is in a name anyway. He said there are 200 million Christians in Imagawa, and they all love me, and will vote for me. He says you know I am one of the three top billionaires in the world, and the other two are only billionaires because I helped them.

Then he said, you also should know the Christians are not so bright! Well even their own holy bible calls them dumb sheep. Does their bible not say, "He brings out His own sheep, He goes before them; and the Sheep follow Him?" Of course you are aware that sheep are the dumbest animals on earth but these sheep love me, and they follow me! I can depend on them.

At this point the counselor reminded him that he had two close calls recently. The counselor said he considered these attempts on King MIGA's life to be warnings! He said he was sure they were warnings from God! He told King MIGA it is possible that he's on a suicide mission. MIGA shrugged this off and said, "The real reason I was not killed is because the God of the Christians is protecting me, nothing can happen to me. You know I also sell their bibles! I am the chosen! I am the one.

A third scene opens and there was a man who was known as the wealthiest man in the entire world. There was no man wealthier nor wiser than he. He was known as the Lone Muck.

He had a grandiose plan to colonize Mars, and several other planets. He hoped to engineer this through a space program called, Planet Link. He planned to link several planets together, and he would begin by colonizing Mars first.

When he explained his plan to the little counselor, the counselor said to him, "Sir, I'm not sure about this at all. I don't have a good feeling about this. The Lone Muck asked him why did he say this. He told them he said this because the people of the earth are called consumers. And he believed they were called consumers because they love to consume things. They love to eat, to shop and buy clothing that they never wear. He said, they love to buy electronic gadgets, cars, homes, boats, that they soon lose interest in. He said they really are consumers, licking up everything in sight.

And the wise counselor said these consumers who have made you rich will not be happy on Mars, nor on any other planet. Because there's nothing there for them to consume. And how on earth will you get all the things that they love and put them up into space. It is a foolish plan my friend.

And the wise counselor asked the Lone Muck why not concentrate on fixing some of the problems that we have here on earth, before you start thinking about colonizing Mars. Furthermore, he says, in the book of Psalms we are told, "The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein." The wise counselor told him, if everything belongs to the Lord, including the planets, how will you get the Lord to go along with your plan? The billionaire told the little adviser money is power and when you have money you can do whatever you want, even the Christian's God respects money. Does He not say in the holy bible money answers all things?"

The final scene opens with a large group of foolish leaders who've decided to attack and destroy the only tiny nation in their area that does not worship the Muslim God. That does not worship the god of Islam. The nation they have attacked is called Manusalem. It is the only nation in that region that refuses to bow down to Muhammad. Most of the members of this group of nations live and breathe to destroy this tiny nation. And so they came up with a plan to band together all 23 nations, and attack this tiny little country that has refused to bow to the Islamic faith.

And all 23 Nations agreed to meet with this wise little counselor to talk about their plan. After listening to their elaborate plan to attack their tiny neighbor, the counselor said to them, "Sirs, I do not think this is a good idea!" And all the voices in the room thundered at him at the same time. And they said to him, "What do you mean, you do not think this is a good idea?

And the little man said, "Well, I've read the Holy scriptures, and it says that while this nations God has allowed them to be destroyed in times past, it will happen no more, and their people will never be removed from their land again.

The Lord promised them faithfully in Deuteronomy 30 that He would have compassion on them, and He would bring them back from captivity, and He has done this, has He not. He promised to gather them again from all the nations where He had scattered them.

On their return, He promised to prosper them, and multiply them more than their fathers, has He not. And this is the season of those promises, these things are happening as prophesied! I warn you, it is an impossible plan for any nation to defeat them completely! Neither will you succeed in removing them from their land.

In fact the counselor told them, according to Revelation 19, when you go up against this great City, and you encompass that beloved city, fire will come down from God out of heaven, and devour you. I caution you to cancel this wicked plan, for you shall not prevail. When you fight against this great city, you are fighting against Allah himself.

And if that is not enough to deter you, he told them, the apostle John, writer of the holy book of Revelation, said he saw in a vision, a holy city, called the eternal city the New Manusalem coming down from heaven. And the Word of God says prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

The city you have come against shall become an eternal city for all the saints of God in the world, and they will go in and out of this great city forever. The pure river of the water of life shall run down the middle of the street of this great city, and the trees on either the side of it will provide food for the healing of the nations of the world. And all the nations will come in and out of this city eternally. God bless and keep you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
