Dealing with Enemies of God

You have enemies. You have enemies that want you and your children dead. You have enemies you need to fight. Your well-intended desire to “win them over” through niceness is a weapon they wield against you. They manipulate your long-conditioned desire to avoid conflict. They know that you are terrified of offending anyone since that will negatively affect church attendance. And so, they have rolled over you. They’ve destroyed your culture. They’ve now made you an exile in your own country. You are not going to “winsome” your way out of this. You can choose to remain silent out of cowardice, or you can begin to fight an evil ideology that could not be in more stark rebellion against the Creator of Heaven and Earth.Read more

The Lies We Must Battle with Modern Day Mind Control

They really envision a future with a small, centrally controlled population. They’ve blatantly predicted it must happen by the year 2030. They fully intend to have a world with a single government, a single economy, a single currency, a single language, a single education system, a single healthcare system, and a single religion. The docile citizens of their new world will be trained to worship the Earth and the ruling elite. As you already know, they’ve already achieved a great part of their goals through modern entertainment media. How many millions of people, especially in the industrialized West, mindlessly swoon in worship at the feet of ‘personality cults’ in both the world of movies and music, and the world of sports? The elites absolutely love this kind of ‘idolatry.’ As long as the masses of people’s minds are not paying attention to God’s Word and things that bring honor to Jesus, The Messiah, they really don’t care which of their idols gets the glory.Read more

Nations are shaking as God is calling people to Move Mountains

Lance Wallnau notes that, like God prepared Persian king Cyrus to enable God’s people to restore their kingdom after their captivity in Babylon 2500 years ago, so… today, He’s raising up secular leaders to champion the causes of godliness to confront obvious unrighteousness. This phenomenon of history is being used providentially to give courage to a young generation of God’s people for the advancement of the gospel and for the glory of Almighty God, the Lord of Hosts, the Redeemer of lost people without hope in this sick world.Read more

If Trump Dared to Protect Persecuted Christians around the World

What if Donald J. Trump, the president so many elite evangelicals love to mock, became the first to tie real consequences to Christian persecution? What if Trump stood in front of the UN and said: “India - if you let mobs burn a single church or beat a single convert while the police stand by, you don’t get access to our tech markets. And no more H1 Visas.” “Nigeria - if your army refuses to protect Christian villages from Fulani raiders, and if a single Christian gets kidnapped or one Christian is slaughtered, we cut your military aid. Immediately.” “Pakistan - if your courts and police continue to allow even a single Christian girl to be kidnapped and raped with impunity, we cut off all military aid, and block your next bailout, and say goodbye to any visa to the US. And if you imprison one more believer over your blasphemy laws, we will freeze every dollar of cooperation.” "China - if one more pastor disappears, if one more cross is torn down, or if you dare forbid access to any Christian of the original unedited Bible, we sanction your tech companies, block your exports, and every Chinese Communist Party official is banned from setting foot in the United States.” “And finally, if any regime including the above dares kill or allow a single Christian to be killed for converting, your trade deals are dead on arrival.” Now, catch your breath after hearing such bold questions. Neil plainly asks: What would that do? It would make those governments responsible for protecting Christians. It would be something no American president in history has done. Not Reagan. Not Bush. Not Obama. Certainly not Biden.Read more

    Unlocking the Mysteries of Evolution

    It’s important that we understand the impact of a concept called GRADUALISM

    “Gradualism” is a term often used regarding biological evolution in place of uniformitarianism, but the intended meaning is usually the same.  Slow processes of genetic change, gradually going on generation after generation, through immense spans of time, are assumed to be the ultimate cause for virtually every living thing in nature.  As a modern zealot for Darwinism insists:

    “Gradualness is of the essence.  In the context of the fight against creationism, gradualism is more or less synonymous with evolution itself.  If you throw out gradualness you throw out the very thing that makes evolution more plausible than creation”

    In other words, you don’t want to accept the miracle of God creating so you accept the miracle that gradual, slow, long processes, drawn out for millions and billions of years can somehow perform miracles. That’s what it amounts to.

    Days of Creation – How Long?

    How long were the days of creation? You might wonder why some people would even ask that question after reading the first chapter of Genesis. Each of the first six days described there is clearly separated by the phrase, “the evening and the morning were the first day… second day…” and so on.  Those descriptive boundaries certainly make sense to us. Is there any reason to suspect it wouldn’t have been quite clear to Moses as well?  But what is the condition that makes an evening and a morning?  You might say “the sun.”  But on day one the sun wasn’t created yet.  And reading the text of Genesis, we discover that God didn’t create the sun until the fourth day along with all the other stars.  Here’s a question for you.  Even without a sun, how would you determine the length of a day?  Is it not by the rotation of the earth?  If you were on another planet the length of your “day” would be determined by the rotation speed of your planet, right?

    Of course, with only a modest knowledge of Bible history, the implication of this idea would lead any reader to very naturally conclude that God said “let there be light” for the very first time only about six or 7,000 years ago. Well, that’s quite a thought.  But, some find this far too implausible. But why? Is it because of their pre-conceived idea that the universe must surely be much older than that? If that’s the only kind of information about earth’s ancient history you were ever taught, well then naturally we would expect that kind of reaction.  But, to follow it up, if they’re trying to show agreement with the Bible, you might hear them ask: “Isn’t there some place in the Bible where a day is described as a thousand years long?” Do you suppose they might be thinking they have to find a way to help the Bible get itself out of trouble with its credibility?

    Education without virtue ruins its home culture with seeds of inevitable destruction

    For the first two centuries of America’s existence, almost everyone could read and ‘cipher’ (do basic math)… and they did it without ANY public schools, as they’re known in our time. The institutionalized indoctrination centers of today were unthinkable to early Americans. Past generations of Americans had high value for the education of their children — much more than Americans of today. What was the difference? A lot! But rather than handing over their children to the state to be “educated” by the state, and for the goals of the state, almost all education then was handled by families, religious organizations, tutors, community-run and private schools. And it was done within a free and open market mentality, without top-down controls from a faraway bureaucracy.
