The impulse to control other people is evil — period.  There is no justification.  A person may try to rationalize this impulse, but it is still evil.  Nothing can change this; not even if the majority agrees with the desire to control.  In fact, when the majority tries to force its will on others, that is called the tyranny of the masses.  it is why our founders rejected democracy.  Unfortunately, our society no longer recognizes tyranny.  Instead, most people in this nation support and even advance tyranny under the guise of ‘fairness.’  They insist that justice is based on fairness.  they are wrong.  Justice is based in morality;  ‘fairness’ is based in tyranny.  This is what is at the heart of the desire to create ‘protected classes’ in this society.  Well, we have another chance to illustrate this point and — at the same time — demonstrate why I am fond of telling people that evil will always boast and tell you exactly what it wants and why.  We find it in a story a friend of mine shared with me about the tyrants trying to destroy a family owned pizza parlor.

I want to set aside the secular aspect of the debate over religious liberty verses discrimination.  Instead, I want to focus on something that actually alarms me even more than the damage that is being done by the militant homosexual agenda.  What I want to address is the Spiritual confusion among professed believers as to what God’s Word tells us about how we should deal with homosexuals.  I have seen some Christians arguing that they should have a right to refuse service to or association with homosexuals.  Others are rather harsh in their attacks on other believers for stating this position.  This group argues that we must show Christ’s love, and the only way to do this is to accept homosexuals and treat them as we would any other.  Well, if you are a believer, let me ask you a simple question:

Has the Body of Christ grown so dead that it no longer knows or understands the Word of God? Continue reading “KNOW YOUR SCRIPTURES: Casting Pearls before Swine and the Homosexual Agenda” →

I was listening to the radio again today and I heard one popular commentator trying to explain the growing anti-Christian agenda in this nation in terms of the American Left’s desire to control the majority.  While there is truth in this assertion, this radio host didn’t explain the context which makes it true.  Instead, he was trying to explain it strictly in material terms.  Sadly, this strips all truth from his statement.  The truth as to why there is a growing anti-Christian agenda in this nation, the real Truth, was explained to us a long time ago.  Whether or not you see past the material aspects of this world is what decides if you see the real Truth, or just its reflection.

I posted a more formal argument for why we have a right to discriminate on my other blog, the Road to Concord.  However, I am not ready to leave this issue alone.  I think what we may need to help the harder cases out there is a little shock to the system.  So, if you will allow me, I would like to use absurdity to illustrate the absurdity in this supposed ‘debate’ over discrimination.

Why do so many people think that a belief in God is irrational?  I understand that the majority of those who think this way also believe that ‘science’ supports their skepticism.  Sadly, this belief is based in ignorance of the scientific method.  So, before we can have a meaningful discussion as to why belief in God is not irrational, we have to have a discussion on the many ‘fallacies of science.’ Continue reading “The Fallacy of ‘Science’” →

In his recent interview with Glenn Beck, Grover Norquist claimed that his connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and other subordinate Islamic organizations was intended to help stabilize the Middle East by promoting democracy and free trade.  In this interview, Norquist claimed that he had someone else read the Qur’an for him, and that this person determined the Qur’an supports democracy and private property rights.  So, as Norquist sees it, this means Islam can be ‘modernized.’  Throughout the interview, Norquist continuously claimed his goal is to bring Islam out of the Thirteenth Century.  However, there is a major problem with this claim: it is not true!  First, Muhammad was very forceful in asserting that Islam does not change!  Next, the Qur’an does not allow for democracy, and it only provides property rights for Muslims.  If you are not a Muslim, you have very few rights at all, let alone property rights.  Sadly, this is one of the areas where Beck’s ignorance got in his way as he did not correct Norquist on any of these point.  (in my opinion, this is caused by his Spiritual blindness).  But it is worse than this.  Norquist is married to a Muslim, so he is not ignorant of these fact.  This means Norquist knows full-well that he is lying about Islam.

When it comes to Spiritual matters, I have been and will continue to be an out-spoken critic of Glenn Beck.  However, when it comes to matters of investigative reporting and education on historic events, I will laud Beck and the people who work with them.  They took down Van Jones, and exposed George Soros and the TIDES Foundation.  Historically, Beck is the only reason America now knows about and understands the American Progressive movement.  And now, although he still has it wrong on Spiritual matters, Beck is at least starting to report on the history of Islam, especially the Muslim Brotherhood.  It is this investigation into Islam and the Muslim Brotherhood that lead Beck and his people to another piece of the puzzle.  While many ‘Conservatives’ have been quick to condemn Obama for giving aid and comfort to America’s enemies in the Middle east while turning against Israel, we have neglected the evidence condemning the Republican Party on the same counts.  Now Beck has exposed the connections, and the evidence is clear.  the reason the GOP has not and will not do anything to stop Obama’s treason is because they are partners in his crimes.  The GOP is supporting ‘Radical Muslim Terrorism!’ Continue reading “PIECES OF THE PUZZLE: GOP Support for the Muslim Brotherhood” →

Psalm 82:5

There was a time when I used to read prophecy literally.  I still believed it, but it caused problems for me.  I could not understand how I could rationalize my faith in Scripture and prophecy with what I know about the universe and how it works.  Consequently, I had a difficult time defending God’s Word against the attack of skeptics and scoffers.  But that was before I truly surrendered to the Lord and sought His will and His understanding.  Since then, I have come to understand that much of prophecy is symbolic.  The pictures it paints are meant to convey Spiritual messages.  Now, this does not mean there are not manifestations of these prophecies in the material world, because there are.  But the true meaning is usually in the symbol or Spiritual picture the prophet was painting rather than the meaning of the literal translations.  Sadly, a veil of blindness has fallen over the world.  It manifests itself in the form of ‘science,’ or ‘technology,’ but the effect is the same.  It has blinded man to the fact that God’s moral laws are as much a part of Natural Law as the laws we accept (i.e. physics).  Man has exalted himself to the throne of God, and God is using it to fulfill prophecy before our very eyes.  The foundations of the earth are being shaken and we do not see or understand.

I was already going to write this post when I noticed my co-blogger, Texas95, had posted a link in the comments of my previous post.  When I opened that link, I discovered that it supported the subject I intended to write about.  My previous post was written the night before I attended a men’s group at our church where Rick Burgess of the Rick and Bubba Show was speaking.  The subject of Rick’s address centered around the subject of my last post: do you have a demonic belief in God, or have you truly made Him Lord of your life.  My youngest son accepted Christ last night, after he heard Rick speak.  I immediately knew there was no coincidence between my post and Rick’s address, just as I know now that Texas95’s link is not a coincidence.  Scripture tells us that God causes all things to work together for the good of those who believe in and trust on Him (Romans 8:28).  I know this is the Truth because I see it at work in my life and the lives of those around me.  It is also how I know that writing this post is obedience to God, and therein lies the subject of this post: the real duality in this world.

Truth. What is True? Can Truth change depending upon a person’s point of view? Can Truth change depending on what a person “feels”? Can Truth be one thing for one person, and at the exact same time regarding the exact same occurrence and relationship; be something different for another person? Will you consider these questions after referencing the definition from a dictionary written nearly 200 years ago; the 1828 edition of Merriam-Websters? Continue reading “TRUTH, what is true?” →

If you believe, I want you to ask yourself a question:

Do you believe in the Creator, or do you believe in The Lord?

It’s a simple question, but the answer is anything but.  In fact, for those who believe, the answer is everything, so I pray you take time to seriously reflect on your answer before you make it.  Then read the rest of this post and decide whether or not you answered correctly.

NOTE: This is the first post in what will be a series of posts sharing what I have learned from an intensive, two-year study of Biblical prophecy and world history.

For the past couple years, I have been in an intensive study of Biblical prophecy.  My study has taken me to other areas of Scripture, as well.  I have found myself studying ancient Hebrew and Hebrew culture; Greek; Biblical symbology and allegory and even secular history.  What I have learned has convinced me that — where prophecy is concerned — the majority of the Church believes in a false testimony; a lie.  For example, several things I discovered that the majority of believers will probably find difficult to accept are: Continue reading “BIBLE PROPHECY: Much of what You Think You Know about Prophecy is Wrong!” →

The Humanist is dangerous because he actually studies human nature.  His goal is to learn the best ways to create, shape and direct public opinion.  To the Humanist, this is a science that can be mastered. It started with the Progressives under Woodrow Wilson, especially with a man named Edward Bernays.  Bernays is known as the father of propaganda, and he said propaganda is a weapon.  The NAZI’s actually credited Bernays (and the Wilson Administration) for teaching them how to use propaganda as a weapon.  Today, we can see the perfection of the process Bernay’s pioneered in action — if we know what to look for, that is.  The problem for most Americans is that we are the product of Humanist social engineering, which means we have not been taught what we need to know to spot this process.  We have to know a great deal of history before we can see it in action.  I do not claim to know everything I need to know, myself, but I know enough to spot it.  I hope to share what I have learned with you so you might learn to spot it too.  I will illustrate using the current narrative on the ‘crisis’ of ‘climate change.’ Continue reading “UNDERSTANDING HUMANISM: Crisis and Sacrifice in Action” →

LAWLESSNESS IN THE HEADLINES: The Death of the First Amendment

Have you heard?  The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled it is ‘Constitutional’ for our schools to teach Christianity to students.  They are not just teaching about the religion; they are teaching the religion.  The Court even ruled that it is ‘Constitutional’ for our schools to force students to dress as first century Christians, take on Christian names, pray to Yahweh and generally act like first century Christians for two full weeks.  What’s more, schools do not have to tell the parents, and parents cannot ‘opt their children out’ of the course.  This ruling goes so far as to protect the schools teaching students that Yahweh is not only real, He is the One True God.  But here is the biggest shocker: the ACLU has been totally silent on this matter!  This is the joining of Church and State, and with its ruling, the Ninth Court of Appeals has destroyed the First Amendment.  Oh!  There’s just one catch to this story: it wasn’t Christianity, it was Islam!

Are you a member of a cult?  Let me caution you against answering that question too quickly.  First, ask yourself whether or not you believe there are such things as objective fact/reality and universal morality?  If you do not, then there is a very good chance you have been indoctrinated by our schools and other supporting social institutions.  You see, one of the main characteristics of a cult is mind control.  We are all aware of a very common form of mind control, we just know it by another name: Political Correctness.  But that is all Political Correctness is: a form of mind control that traces its roots directly to Marxism and the Secular Humanist ideal upon which Marxism is built.  Our schools were taken over by Marxists nearly one hundred years ago, and they openly stated that they saw man as his own god, and that the teachers were the prophets of their new religion.*  However, the Secular Humanist understands that his ideal cannot be achieved in a society that embraces the belief that objective fact and universal morality exist.  This is why, for more than one hundred years now, our schools have en used to teach our students that there are no such things as objective fact or universal morality.  Political Correctness is the shield that was then put in place to protect whatever ground the Humanists manage to gain toward their goal of re-making humanity according to their hearts’ desires.

LAWLESSNESS IN THE HEADLINES: The Whole LGBT Agenda is Lawless

I am going to demonstrates that — when it comes to speaking the truth — I am not afraid to grab and hold on to the third rail by saying that Dr. Carson was not entirely wrong in what he said about homosexuality being a choice.  There is plenty of evidence to suggest this is true, and those who are aware of the history behind the homosexual agenda understand this.  I suspect Dr. Carson is one of those who knows the truth of this history, and that it may have played a factor in his comments tot he media this past week.  Either way, the facts are clear: homosexuality is being used as a political tool, and the shield of political correctness is being used to protect that agenda.  You will likely feel it in the way you are reacting to this post now, or in the comments that are sure to follow.  I fully expect to be called a ‘homophobe’ and/or a ‘hater’ for writing this post.  But the PC attacks that are sure to follow those who try to expose the truth do not change that truth.

There was a story in the news this past week or so — about a Baptist Pastor dropping his wife off at work at an abortion clinic.  When The Christian Post asked Pastor Chatman’s wife, Callie Chatman, how she could work at an abortion clinic, she said:

“I feel that we have all sinned. None of us are perfect. No sin is greater than any sin. I don’t know why, other than that’s the only decision [abortion] that a woman could make, that’s her right to make that decision, because that’s her body.”

What’s more, The Christian Post reports that Callie Chatman has also said:

“God forgives and we are not to judge,” 

Let me say this as clearly as I can.  I am not judging this woman’s salvation.  That is between her and God.  However, if she or anyone else calling themselves a Christian believes this excuse, you are not reading your Bible.  Scripture is clear on this point: God does not forgive unrepentant sin!

For all the criticism I have aimed at him in the past few months, I still want my readers to know that there is still a great deal to learn from Glenn Beck.  Today, he explained the significance of something Netanyahu said in his speech this past week.  It has to do with the Book of Esther.  Unfortunately, Beck did not take the connections far enough.  I don’t know whether it is due to the fact that he did not think about it, or because does not as much as he needs to or the differences between his religion and the Christian faith prevent him from seeing it.  All I know is there is much, much more to Netanyahu’s speech and Biblical prophecy.  So much more that I feel compelled to share the connections I see so that those with eyes and ears will be able to see and hear as well.

PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: Rand and Libertarians Reject the Key Element of Liberty

I have been hard on Glenn Beck on this and especially on my other blog, The OYL.  However, I do not mean to give the impression that I have anything against him, personally.  It’s just that I do not like the general direction he has been heading, and I am strongly opposed to the message he has been teaching to his audience.  A perfect example of where Beck and I differ can be found in his current position regarding the Constitution and the Libertarian ideal.  In the first hour of his 6 March 2015 radio show, Beck said that the Constitution and the Libertarian ideal are the two keys to ‘saving’ America.  In fact, he went so far as to say the Constitution was ‘divinely revealed.’ I couldn’t disagree with Beck any more than I do, but more than that, many of the founders disagreed with Beck’s current position on these matters.  If you are unsure about your own position on this issue, let me ask you to read and consider the rest of this post before you make a decision as to what you should believe … Continue reading →

I will save the point I actually hope to make until the end of this post.  Instead, I hope to illustrate my point by asking you to consider a hypothetical.  I have intentionally chosen an emotionally charged hypothetical as I believe it may better help me drive home the truth behind the point I wish to make.  So, for the purposes of this post, I ask you to pretend that I am a German soldier fighting the Americans in France during WW II — and that I am very good at my job.
