The Left, the Right, Dictatorship, and Jesus the Center

A Forever Student’s Understanding of Our Present Socio-Political-Economic Situation

1. Because of human weaknesses and limitations, there will always be a left and a right in every society and nation, all over the world, covering the entire humanity, throughout all ages and eras, until the second coming of the Lord and Savior Jesus Messiah (Isa Al-Masih).

2. All of us, mere humans, lean either towards the left or towards the right.

2.1. Those on the left are called liberals and progressives. They can also be described as alteratory, i.e., they are in pursuit of social, political, economic, and/or ecclesiastical change.

2.1.1. The humane moderate left are in pursuit of significant change, but not absolute change, i.e., they acknowledge that some existing systems and structures ought to be conserved. They advance their cause/s through non-abusive, non-violent, and/or non-annihilatory means; and are protective of all humanity and the earth.

2.1.2. The humane absolute left are in pursuit of total change; but they do so through non-abusive, non-violent, and/or non-annihilatory means. They are also protective of all humanity and the earth.

2.1.3. The extreme left are in pursuit of either non-absolute or absolute change; but they do so through abusive, violent, and/or annihilatory means.

2.1.3.1. Professing Christians who are in the extreme left are hypocritical Christians.

2.1.3.2. Extreme-leftists who move further into leftist extremism devolve into supporting and/or advancing dictatorships.

2.2. Those on the right are called conservatives, i.e., they are working to preserve existing social, political, economic, and/or ecclesiastical systems and structures.

2.2.1. The humane moderate right acknowledge that some existing systems and structures ought to be changed or altered; yet they assert that most of them ought to be conserved. They advance their cause/s through non-abusive, non-violent, and/or non-annihilatory means; and are protective of all humanity and the earth.

2.2.2. The humane absolute right are working for total conservation; but they do so through non-abusive, non-violent, and/or non-annihilatory means. They are also protective of all humanity and the earth.

2.2.3. The extreme right are working for either non-absolute or absolute conservation; but they do so through abusive, violent, and/or annihilatory means.

2.2.3.1. Professing Christians who are in the extreme right are hypocritical Christians.

2.1.3.2. Extreme-rightists who move further into rightist extremism devolve into supporting and/or advancing dictatorships.

3. Being 100% God and 100% human, Jesus (Isa) alone is at the perfect center of everything, i.e., he alone knows and pursues the perfect balance of what ought to be conserved and the things that are in need of altering.

3.1. We must all move towards Christ the Center, seeking and lovingly pursuing just and proper balance for God’s glory and the good of the American people and all humanity. This is especially true of and most urgent for extreme-leftists and extreme-rightists.
