The fact that the battle to preserve our society of liberty is a spiritual war against demonic principalities in high places is more evident now than ever before in our lifetime. The question is – will God’s people who are called by His name not only humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways, but will they be the preserving salt of influence on our society or will they continue to be ‘trampled’ by society’s mountains of influence?
The Power of Keeping People in Darkness (ignorant)
The gross darkness of ignorance that prevails in today’s world results from one thing: deliberate re-education. Historic disciples of Marx, Lenin and Mao know very well that society-wide ignorance depends on the perversion of true history, and the censoring of moral truth found in God’s Word. Paul insisted that Christ followers “prove all things.” Why? Faith (in God, the Bible or all truth) comes by hearing the Word of God! Without a clear and spoken declaration of relevant, Christ glorifying words (Rhema) of God’s timeless truth, people are lost in confusion, deception, and pop culture entertainment. It’s all devoid of substance that challenges us to seek God.
We Americans are facing an imminent election that’s more crucial to our freedom and well-being than likely any election in our nation’s history. Yet, the mountainous influence of the main stream media, big tech and big pharma have effectively divided us politically by a total charade. It’s a completely corrupt series of schemes to confuse and divide us, making us unable to see that we’ve been cut loose from our anchors of morality, historic roots and God’s truth.
Only 6% of Americans hold to a Biblical worldview
Only 6% of American adults, and only 2% of American millennials actually hold to the very basics of a Biblical worldview (according to reports of Arizona Christian University’s Cultural Research Center). That’s pretty disturbing news, since 61% still claim to be Christian.
The definition of a biblical worldview included affirmation of these basic doctrines:
- First, the existence of absolute morals communicated through Scripture.
- Second, Jesus Christ lived a sinless life.
- Third, God is the all-powerful, all-knowing Creator of the universe and He stills rules it today.
- Fourth, salvation is a gift from God and cannot be earned.
- Fifth, Satan is real.
- Sixth, Christians have a responsibility to share their faith in Christ with other people.
- And seventh, the Bible is accurate in all of its teachings.
The 6% of Americans who have a Biblical worldview represents a drop-off from 9% in 2009, reports Barna.
After seeing these kinds of statistics reporting the dismal record low of citizens in USA who embrace Biblical Christianity, we need to honestly recognize that our culture has created a very shallow approach to whole truth. Many Christians today have a lot of misconceptions about Scripture. They establish beliefs about truth based on misquoted verses without full context, because they’ve been taught by preachers who miss the balance of God’s righteous requirements with the amazing mercy of His grace.
Look at some Examples of misguided beliefs
** “in Him we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:28). It’s focused on “me” – personal fuzzy feeling about God’s care. But what happens when we read the whole context? Acts 17:23b-28…
“What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you. The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything. And he made from one man every nation (ethnos) of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, for ‘In him we live and move and have our being’ as even some of your own poets have said, For we are indeed his offspring.”
** “if my people humble themselves and pray and seek my face… then will I hear from heaven and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14. Repentance directed by our humble free will is a noble principle we are encouraged by here… but read the whole context starting at verse 13 and then on to verse 19-22.
“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence (plague) among my people, if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer that is made in this place. For now, I have chosen and consecrated this house that my name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will be there for all time. And as for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, doing according to all that I have commanded you and keeping my statutes and my rules, then I will establish your royal throne, as I covenanted with David your father, saying, ‘You shall not lack a man to rule Israel.’
“But if you turn aside and forsake my statutes and my commandments that I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them, then I will pluck you up from my land that I have given you, and this house that I have consecrated for my name, I will cast out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples. And at this house, which was exalted, everyone passing by will be astonished and say, ‘Why has the LORD done thus to this land and to this house?’ Then they will say, ‘Because they abandoned the LORD, the God of their fathers who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods and worshiped them and served them. Therefore, he has brought all this disaster on them.’”
** “the truth shall make you free…” John 8:32. We must read the whole statement of Jesus starting at verse 31.
So, Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
The Deranged Strategy of Exalted Demonic Powers in High Places
Today’s Democrat Party is, for all practical purposes, insane – or as President Trump put it, ‘totally, stone-cold crazy.’
“Democrats demonize and ‘defund’ the police that protects them and then complain when crime skyrockets. They encourage violent communist-anarchist mobs to burn down our cities. They insist they can change the earth’s weather by adopting a bizarre totalitarian-socialist program that would destroy our economy and annihilate individual rights. They believe convicted terrorists should be allowed to vote from prison. They believe a beautiful, full-term human baby about to be born, can be slaughtered at will. They disagree with God, insisting that there are dozens of different genders – and that men can get pregnant. That is insane.”
What’s happening in the Party of Derangement?
World Net Daily editor, David Kupelian, writes in his essay about the Trojan horse of our time:
“Today’s Democrat Party has become possessed by the dark revolutionary spirit of Marxism, which in reality is based on hatred and rebellion against God, against His commandments, against His morality, against the very idea of objective truth. Marxists want their own truth, their own laws, their own morality, their own biology, their own science, their own heaven … on earth. They want nothing to do with the Judeo-Christian values that have long served as the moral foundation of America – which they openly hate. And yet, these are the very people who believe they’re much more intelligent and moral than you, and who, in just a few weeks, fully intend to take over America forever.”
Forever?
Rush Limbaugh, before the 2020 election, put it starkly: “If the Democrats win, that’s the end of democracy. It’s the end of the two-party system. We’re going to have a one-party government that is going to devote itself to eliminating all opposition. That’s what’s at stake. If they win, I think the Republican Party essentially ceases to exist.”
How is that even possible, seeing as America has been a two-party system for centuries?
“One of the first things they will do,” explained Limbaugh, “is grant statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico, and that will give them four Democrat senators. They will never lose control of the Senate. They will never lose control of the House. They will pack the Supreme Court with who knows how many new justices, and they’ll all be left-leaning justices. And it won’t take them long to do any of this. And after they’ve done it, there will be a one-party state. The United States will be a one-party government.”
If that prospect seemed real in 2020, what are all of us are seeing more clearly now? The wicked controlling powers of society at all levels of politics, information distribution, and corporate business have mesmerized most of the population. We’ve been conditioned not to think for ourselves with so much as good old common sense.
A Clear Prayer for God to Rise Up Against the Wicked!
If we American Christians do not persistently petition our Lord for His mercy, guidance, and protection for our nation, and do everything in our strength to use our God given abilities and influence to urge fellow citizens to actively vote, the influential ‘gates of hell’ will corruptly steal not only the coming election. If we do not get deeply serious about being the beacons of light to our communities – ongoing from here on – our feeble testimony will be squelched by tyrants who hate God and hate you.
Psalm 94:16-17 “Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers? If the LORD had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.”
Tyranny requires that the truth be silenced, that real history be erased and rewritten, that speech be restricted, and that individual thought be silenced.
In this time of constant turmoil, false flags, wars, civil unrest, and now internal bio-terrorism and manufactured pandemics, a major agenda of the demonically influenced state’s ruling class is to silence all dissent, and mandate conformity. And remember, the reason many of us live in denial about the reality of that, is because of the natural human inclination toward “normalcy bias.” Our brains are wired to resist change. But there is a globalist ruling class, whether we want to believe it or not. But, what many of us miss is that Jesus IS King of all earthly kings. He is the one who sets up kings and brings kings down. And Jesus has all authority in heaven and earth. And He has delegated spiritual authority to His disciples. Not to use randomly but to exercise on behalf of the direction of the Holy Spirit who lives in us and will never leave us or forsake us.
It is imperative, considering a tyranny’s plan for total control, that it stifles criticism and retains the power to control the mainstream narrative, while aggressively eliminating all other resistance and questioning.
This is the state of the world that we live in today. As things continue to deteriorate, nonconformity cannot be allowed if global governance and a global reset are to be successful.
Current censorship has reached levels not seen in the past
… and with all the advanced technology available, this despicable plot to silence thinkers and hide the truth could affect all forms of speech.
It is getting much more difficult to find truthful information, as those like Google, Amazon, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and others are deleting content and access to content at a scorching pace. A day rarely goes by without something we are reading or researching on these sites is taken down or hidden.
This has already led to a world consumed by propaganda alone! Only the state narrative is presented on most of the mainstream easily accessible media formats. You have to really dig if you want to hear honest, second opinion sources of information on just about any topic.
A Change in our listening habits must be Top Priority
You Must reset your inputs. Turn off network media channels and learn to regularly – daily if possible – listen to trustworthy voices reporting what God is doing and prophetically inspiring His servants to speak into our culture. Access not only conservative voices like Dennis Prager and Tucker Carlson, but find Christ-honoring voices you can resonate with. And you’ll have to establish Internet connections to Free-speech platforms like Brighteon, Bitchute, Rumble. Roku is a good system to connect with many we’ve appreciated like “And We Know,” “Flashpoint,” and Frank Speech. Charlie Kirk, Mario Murillo, Lance Wallnau, and Pastors Jack Hibbs and Rob McCoy. Look up their posts and channels on YouTube and spend serious time catching up with truth-filled insights that will inspire you, equip you, and inform you with God’s perspective on what’s going on in your world and how to navigate it.
This is our real and dangerous situation because doctrines of demons are out to destroy mankind
It’s especially ominous, considering the likelihood that through vaccination or other methods, much of the population could soon become subject to transhuman experimentation where injectable nanoparticles and chips could be used to alter human behavior.
Corrupted Power is always troubled by any that dare to think and dare to question
This is not a new phenomenon, as tyrants throughout human history have censored writing and speech in order to protect their power structure.
In ancient times and not so ancient times, books were forcibly burned to keep the populace from having access to any material that was not acceptable by the throne or by the current political authority.
In cases of resistance to ‘high’ authority, many were also killed by the state, and in many cases these ‘cleansings’ were targeted to the educated class, because they had the capability to think critically and express their ideas publicly. If you’re not informed about the historic period of the Reformation, start watching the historic dramas on RedeemTV.com. The period of European history beginning in the 1300s with John Huss and John Wycliffe going into the 1500s with Martin Luther and William Tyndale is one of the most heroic episodes of God’s providential guidance of human history. It makes you realize more powerfully the fact of the hand of God in human society’s experience as recorded in Acts 17 when Paul spoke about God determining the times of nations and the bounds of their habitation (Acts 17:26).
Those that held power by force of arms would never allow criticism and dissent, because that could lead to hostility and insurrection by the people.
In this time of Covid and this fake virus pandemic, things have changed in part, but much is as it has always been throughout history.
Money, power, and control have always been the key concerns of the ruling class. But the methods to keep that power and control have changed. Instead of the sword and guillotine, propaganda and fear have become the primary tools used to fool the people into compliance. In order for propaganda to work, elimination of dissent is imperative.
Censorship plays a huge role in any effort to gain support of the masses, because without the possibility to reach the bulk of the people, the truth tellers become marginalized, and are shunned and ridiculed as troublemakers and conspiracy theorists.
The Broadest Mind Control Effort in Planet Earth’s History
The biggest censorship push in history is taking place today, which means that the biggest propaganda push is also underway.
This false flag event called the coronavirus pandemic is not about one king seeking control over his subjects, but is about the few globalist elitists attempting to take over the entire planet. There is no question that they are demonically inspired.
This is a global effort that is run by the few top claimed elites, with their tentacles of power reaching almost every country on earth through control of the banks, corporations, foundations, and the entire political class system.
Many have fought and died in order to protect free speech, but all speech is now under attack by the forces of evil.
If the globalists were to have their way, free speech would be lost forever.
This is the world of the Internet and computerized system saturation. Censorship today takes on a new sophisticated look through so called “fact checkers” and compliance to “community standards” but it’s meant to accomplish the same goals as in the past.
Blacklisting users, blocking content, and algorithmic manipulation allow for the state to control information, and with that control of information, it stands to reason that the general public will then be easier to manipulate and keep in check.
The acceptance of tracking and tracing technology, continued isolation, vaccines capable of altering the DNA structure of individuals, chips and dyes mimicking the mark of the beast, and a continued state of fear will lead to an end of what our society has long considered the state of normalcy.
The result sought is a new order, a “new normal,” that will be totally controlled by ruling ‘experts’ claiming to be able to sustain you, protect you, appease you, meet all your needs, and eliminate your worries.
This system is called technocracy, and is dependent on a societal class fully controlled by an upper class.
Does this sound familiar? It should, as that is what all tyrants want, but in this day and age, it will look much different.
All of this relies on a willing public
And in order to achieve that total compliance on a scale this large, the human spirit must be broken, and love, family, emotion, responsibility, open communication, mass gatherings, and debate must be squelched.
Once the pathetic masses accept this ruse, and acquiesce to the mandates coming, they will be transformed into a machine-like state through technological manipulation claiming to make life easier, safer, and more convenient.
A totally digitized system is necessary in order to retain constant control. This may sound outlandish, like a dystopian science fiction novel. But it is exactly what is happening right in front of all of us.
Will Christ’s Faithful Followers Do What Past Faithful Heroes Did?
A completely new world is coming upon us for a limited time. It happens by eliminating truth, eliminating our historical roots, and hiding all that is real and honest. What is left is a fantasy, but this fantasy will be deadly. Only those who, like the Pilgrims of Plymouth, are willing to form local bonds of true Ekklesia fellowship community and educate their children according to God’s Biblical truth will avoid the fate of Lot’s wife. She was consumed by her own longing for the shiny objects of this world rather than follow God’s escape route into the unknown. Abram followed God to a destination unknown that was predetermined by God alone. And we have been given Abraham’s faith to trust God for our destination, no matter what happens in the world around us.
Seek the truth, seek honesty, ask questions, and believe nothing unless it can be personally verified. Do not allow the takeover of your lives by these monsters claiming to be your saviors.
We now know the plans of the enemies of freedom – the enemies of God. It is absolutely foolish for Christians (the 50% who don’t vote in elections because doing their civic, constitutional duty is somehow beneath their dignity) to think they can continue their worldly guided behavior and not be accountable to God for it. They are assigned by Jesus to be preservative ‘salt’ to their culture. That takes deliberate effort. They are modern day equivalents to Ezekiel’s watchman on the wall. They will be judged for their inaction when they could have prevented the destruction of their peers.
They have failed to think…
What would their family’s life be like IF BLM, Inc invaded their neighborhoods?
What will they do when tyrannical bureaucrats marginalize honest citizens who conscientiously choose to opt out of arguably dangerous public health mandates?
In controversial times, we must prayerfully think! And think extra hard before we act.
You and I can’t force someone to adopt an opinion against their will. “A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still!” Don’t even try to do it. Refuse to argue with fools who embrace death over life, license over responsibility, and promised safety over daring to risk our temporal comforts.
Only God’s Spirit Can Open Our Spiritual Eyes that have been blinded by Deception
We are seeing publicly the open expression of ‘doctrines of demons’ – hellish teachings popularly accepted as correct for the masses. But you are a chosen generation; a distinct people for God’s own possession; to shine forth His redeeming and purifying light in the midst of darkness. Focus on truth and share it with those willing to receive it.
Just ask yourself; what is the chief aim of following Jesus? Abundant life and knowing God intimately.
Ask; what is the chief aim of the devil? To steal, kill and destroy.
What is the genius of the US constitution? God is our King. We have freedom of thought to be citizens – we the people – free to pursue a life of God’s order under a Biblically inspired nation of written laws – God’s 10 commandments. Righteous truths are eternally self-evident, teaching people to learn self-restraint. The unrighteous require external controls that can’t be enforced without draconian, anti-God restraints.
The mask and personal physical distancing rules by human governors do not recognize “natural laws of God’s creation.” Those natural laws are so obvious, that to ignore them, becomes absurdly stupid. Not only do such foolish restraints endanger humans physically amid a sea of constantly changing opinions, they dehumanize personal relationships, leading to all manner of social and mental disorders. If you doubt the fallacies of such conclusions, take the time to watch censored research reporters like those featured on TheHighWire.com, NaturalNews.com, and HealthImpactNews.com. Be informed by honest dissenters from the mainstream.
God is giving all of us an opportunity to influence the outcome of our nation because He commanded His disciples to actually disciple the nations of the world. And that is possible because He proclaimed that all authority had been given to Him. Do you honestly believe that? Then why not make every effort to participate in the process of determining the leadership of your own nation under God? Vote for freedom of conscience and the liberty to proclaim the truth of God. You’re voting for a platform of principles, not for a personality. This is a rare opportunity in our generation. We now have a crossroads before us where every vote counts. Who, in their right mind, wants to throw their vote away by either not voting or voting for a platform determined to enslave all humanity by a globalist agenda?
Only by constant intercession for God’s will to be done on earth as it is in heaven… for His Kingdom to invade our earthly community… for His enablement to guide us to speak the truth to enlighten the darkness… these must be our priorities in each day God gives us breath.
Psalm 95:10b-15 promises us with consolation:
“He who teaches man knowledge—the LORD—knows the thoughts of man, that they are but a breath. Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O LORD, and whom you teach out of your law, to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked. For the LORD will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage; for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.”

Erasing History and Erasing Truth: Censorship and Destroying Records Is the Cornerstone of Tyrants
“If all mankind minus one were of one opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”
~ John Stuart Mill, On Liberty ch. 2 (1859)

“There is more than one way to burn a book. And the world is full of people running about with lit matches”.

Republished from Lewrockwell.com
Hearing Gary Barnett’s essay should certainly be sobering. But, let’s not forget Who is really in control of the Earth that Scripture declares belongs to the Creator with all of its ‘fullness.’
Hear Psalm 2.
1 Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying,
3 “Let us tear their fetters apart and cast away their cords from us!”
4 He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them.
5 Then He will speak to them in His anger and terrify them in His fury, saying,
6 “But as for Me, I have installed My King upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
7 “I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, today I have begotten You.
8 ‘Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, And the very ends of the earth as Your possession.
9 ‘You shall break them with a rod of iron, you shall shatter them like earthenware.’”
10 Now therefore, O kings, show discernment; take warning, O judges of the earth.
11 Worship the LORD with reverence and rejoice with trembling.
12 Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, for His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
