Incredible! NATO Secretary General admits NATO Has Been at War Against Russia in Ukraine Since 2014

Alternative media sources such as Tucker Carlson, Douglas MacGregor, Scott Ritter, Crisis Magazine, Rod Dreher, Roger Stone, and many more, have presented information indicating the Ukraine conflict began long before the Russian "special operation."

(LifeSiteNews) — Western news media and governments have given the impression that the current Ukraine war began with Russia’s “Special Military Operation” early last year as a supposed step to rebuilding the Soviet Empire. But then last week, the Conservative Treehouse shockingly reported and showed NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg openly admitting that NATO has been at war against Russia since 2014. What?

This is a big deal since we have been constantly told that Russia has been the initial aggressor and the only ones involved in this war have been innocent, democratic Ukraine vs. authoritarian, conquering Russia.

It has been a very difficult conflict to understand because of the massive amount of mostly western propaganda that has made the task seem almost impossible. It greatly helps to be exposed to alternative reports that attempt to explain the history behind the war that goes back several years at least. It is essential to consider such reports because of the now-realistic danger that the war could spiral out of control into a Third World War that increasing numbers of commentators are now warning that we appear to be heading into.

Please take advantage of a large amount of impressive information available in the following video reports, quotes and other links that will give you an astonishingly different perspective on the conflict that almost all other media have been reporting.

Above all, see the last video in this article which is the Tucker Carlson commentary for this Friday evening. Tucker nails it like no one else has done in all US media.

Donald Trump warns World War III is close

Also, this week Donald Trump indirectly indicated, by naming U.S. Secretary of State Ukraine plotter, Victoria Neuland, that the Ukraine conflict started in 2014. A Firstpost.com article states, “Former US president Donald Trump has accused the ‘globalists’ in the US State Department of aiding the 2014 Ukraine coup, which Russia claims started the tensions and possibly triggered the ongoing war.”

That refers to a comment in Trump’s recent speech in which he warned that “World War III has never been closer than it is right now” and “We need to clean house of all of the warmongers and ‘America Last’ globalists in the Deep State, the Pentagon, the State Department, and the national security industrial complex.”

Globalist U.S. Deep State/NATO plans have spectacularly failed

LifeSiteNews has known about the deliberate western provoking of Russia for some time. Now we see the western conspirators finally admitting that there has been much more to this conflict than they have been willing to tell the world. This is likely happening because the situation has become desperate.

The globalist U.S. Deep State/NATO plans have spectacularly failed, especially their new, unprecedented types of sanctions against Russia devised by the Great Reset banking and other power elites.

There has also been a horrible failure by the Ukrainian military, who were heavily armed with modern U.S. weapons and trained in and by the west over the past several years, for the purpose of eventually crushing a deliberately provoked invasion by the Russians. But the exact opposite has happened and confounded the U.S./NATO scheme to use Ukraine as their proxy to force Russian regime change and humiliate and dismantle the huge, resource-rich nation.

This conflict, as it has turned out, was never about defending the sovereignty, borders and freedom of Ukraine. The Ukrainians have instead been used and abused by both East and West, but especially the west, who pushed them into a slaughter that Russia did not at all want to engage in but into a war which the U.S. has wrongly kept telling the Ukrainians that they could win.

Former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter has recently stated that Ukrainian military casualties have reached 300,000-350,000 dead and 150,000 wounded in just one year – a total, he says, that has exceeded all U.S. troop losses during the Second World War. That is astounding, and if true, a horrible count that has been deliberately withheld from the western public and Ukrainian citizens.

It is notable that this is one of the first wars in recent memory in which there are no embedded western reporters on the “good side” showing the conflict that they are reporting on and making numerous claims about. That is not accidental. We have not had any way to verify their incredible claims of supposed massive Ukraine wins and killings of hundreds of thousands of Russian troops.

Rod Dreher chastizes western media coverage of the conflict

In a scathing January 29. 2023, article, prominent U.S. columnist Rod Dreher warned that “U.S. elites are steadily leading” Ukraine “closer to World War III.” Bemoaning the dishonest western media coverage of this catastrophe, he proclaimed, “Why aren’t we talking about this?” He reported that a total of 17 million Ukrainians have fled the nation just before and during the war, possibly never to return — and all that occurred before the current, huge offensive began. This has been a historic disaster for Ukraine and possibly the end of that nation.

The U.S. kept preventing an early, imminent, negotiated peace agreement with Russia and instead fed the Ukrainians more and more weapons and employed the full resources of the mighty U.S. intelligence agencies to give the Ukrainians a crucial, hope-for edge over the Russians.

Here is the text from The Conservative Treehouse report:

I must admit that sometimes I scratch my puzzler, when I watch geopolitical influence agents say the quiet part out loud, and yet no one seems to pay any attention.

In case you missed it – a few days ago (2/14/23), NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg stepped in front of the cameras for an impromptu presser following a meeting of the NATO Defence Ministers at NATO Headquarters in Brussels, Belgium.

General Stoltenberg openly tells western media that NATO has been a war against Russia since 2014. That’s when the combined effort of western political leadership, led by the U.S. State Department and NATO forces, overthrew the former Ukraine government and established the country as the center for strategic military operations against Russia. This isn’t the first time Stoltenberg has made this admission.

Against this backdrop, the February 2022 military incursion by Russia into eastern Ukraine (Donbas region) can be viewed as a counter-offensive against NATO advancement; yet, almost no one in western media seems to hold these NATO admissions as a reference.

Catholic Crisis magazine editor presents a dramatic, alternative view of the conflict

Eric Sammons, the editor of the Catholic Crisis magazine, has also provided a dramatic, October 4, 2022, alternative view on the Ukraine conflict compared with what we have been inundated with in all the mainstream media. He notes that this is a difficult subject for anyone to objectively address “due to the emotional responses it elicits.” Every critic of the western media narrative is called a “Putin lover” and accused of “repeating Russian propaganda” and other demeaning slurs.

The Crisis editor warns, “Events in Ukraine have reached dangerous levels, as the threat of a nuclear World War III seems to grow with each passing day. What’s going on? Who’s to blame? How should Catholics respond?” He presents some crucial background to the Ukraine situation that the vast majority of the western public has not been told about and is almost totally unaware of.

In his articulate video presentation, Sammons states, “We can say that both Putin and the west are wrong” and “The goal is peace – a just peace.” Responding to many claims that Putin is like Hitler during WWI and that those advocating a diplomatic settlement are like Chamberlain, he says that the current situation is instead “much more comparable to WWI rather than WWII. He makes a very good case for this.

In response to all those urging the sending of more weapons to Ukraine and for the U.S. to get directly involved in the war, Sammons emphasizes, “War is a failure. Escalating war is a further failure.” That is what the US/NATO alliance has been doing — escalating the war — no matter how many more Ukrainians must die.

Incredible Oliver Stone documentary and interview

For an even more detailed background on the Ukraine conflict, it is mandatory to view the over two-hour impressive 2016 documentary, Ukraine on Fire by Roger Stone. The documentary introductory states it “investigates the fall of the Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych. Stone interviews Yanukovych and Russian President Vladimir Putin to shed light on the involvement of the U.S. State Department in the 2014 revolution.” Keep in mind that this film discusses the uprising from the perspective of the [pro-Russian] leaders who were removed at the time.

The interviews with Putin that Stone was able to conduct are astonishing. Putin presents himself not at all as all the western media portray him. That is not to say that Putin is right or good, but that we must be allowed to see and hear him in order to better make our own decisions about this terrible conflict.

Klaus Schwab says whoever controls AI, metaverse ‘will be the master of the world’

Schwab gave a talk titled 'The State of the World' at the annual World Government Summit (WGS) in Dubai on February 13, which was held under the theme 'Shaping Future Governments.'

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (LifeSiteNews) — World Economic Forum (WEF) founder Klaus Schwab said that whoever masters technologies like AI, the metaverse, and synthetic biology will “in some way be the master of the world.”

“Artificial Intelligence, but not only Artificial Intelligence, but also the metaverse, new space technologies, and I could go on and on… synthetic biology,” Schwab said. “Our life will in ten years from now will be completely different, very much affected, and who masters those technologies – in some way – will be the master of the world.”

Schwab gave a talk titled “The State of the World” at the annual World Government Summit (WGS) in Dubai on February 13, which was held under the theme “Shaping Future Governments.”

The WEF founder talked about the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution, a phase that will supposedly transform the world through novel technologies, like AI, robots, self-driving cars, neuro-technological brain enhancement, and genetic editing.

Schwab stated that he thinks the world is at the beginning of this phase and that we will go through “deep systematic transformation processes.” He furthermore claimed that we will see exceptional growth of new technologies soon.

“There are some people who claim that we are now in a de-globalizing world, but actually, I would say, we have to re-globalize this world,” he stated. “We have to make sure that we strengthen cooperation because as it was mentioned we are faced with issues that are of existential importance for humankind. Our common future is at stake.”

Continuing, the globalist leader opined that “[we] are moving from a world more or less dominated by one super-power, into the patchwork of a multi-power world. With one superpower, a competing superpower, aspiring superpower like India, middle powers, but also rogue states, companies who have become global powers, technology companies – social media.”

Schwab named three areas where transformation will take place in the coming years: economic, energy, and political transformation.

Regarding the energy transition, he noted the importance of the pro-abortion Paris Climate Agreement in reaching the goal of “Net Zero,” i.e. not emitting any extra carbon into the atmosphere.

Furthermore, Schwab stressed that “we have to make sure that the rule of law is not trampled with the feet” in a “fragmented world.”

“I see Dr. Ngozi [Okonjo-Iweala, director-general of the World Trade Organization] who – at least in the trade field – tries so hard to maintain a global rules-based order.”

In an interview after his speech, the WEF founder expressed his concerns over the “polarization of the public opinion” due to a quickly changing world.

“It has to do with some feeling that we lose control over our own fate,” he stated. “And here, I think, governments have an important role to explain and to have the ambition and the vision to show that those technologies can serve for the good and are not per se evil.”

The WEF is a founding partner of the WGS and the two organizations share many similarities in terms of their globalist ideological framework. During Schwab’s WEF meeting in January 2023, speakers promoted abortion, LGBT ideology, digital vaccine records, wrong information about the Covid injections, and wearable mind-reading devices among other things.

At this year’s WEF meeting, U.S. Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry praised himself and the other attendees of the WEF for being a “select group of human beings” that “actually talk about saving the planet.”

‘I Saw the Vision of Jesus Christ’–‘Paper Planes’ Rapper Shares She Has Become a Born-Again Christian

 By Jessica Lea -January 4, 2023 CHURCH LEADERS

British rapper M.I.A., known for her singles “Bad Girls” and “Paper Planes,” has become a born-again Christian after having a vision of Jesus. The artist, whose real name is Mathangi “Maya” Arulpragasam, spoke out recently against people who have been critical of this spiritual change.

“The fact that the biggest backlash [sic] in my career and life I’m facing after saying ‘Jesus is real’ is such a revelation to me,” Arulpragasam tweeted Dec. 28. “People who control these apps rather me be a bad girl, [than] a good one.”

M.I.A.: ‘It Was Jesus’ 

Mathangi Arulpragasam was born in London, England, to parents of Sri Lankan Tamil heritage. Her parents moved back to Sri Lanka when she was six months old, but when she was 11, the family returned to London as refugees due to the Sri Lankan Civil War. The war has heavily influenced M.I.A.’s work, and defining themes of her music include resisting excess, economic inequality, and unity among all people. 

M.I.A. is notable for being one of the earliest artists to become known through the internet. She has released a total of six albums at this point in her career, the latest of which was “Mata” in October 2022. In 2009 she was nominated for an Academy Award for the song, “O…Saya,” which was on the soundtrack of the film “Slumdog Millionaire.” The single “Paper Planes,” also on the soundtrack, was an international success, making Top 20 charts in multiple countries and rising to the fourth position in the U.S. on the Billboard Hot 100.

In an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, Arulpragasam shared that in 2017, she had “a weird spiritual experience.” She was in the Caribbean when, she says, “I had a vision and I saw the vision of Jesus Christ…it’s a very crazy thing because it turned my world upside down. Because everything I thought and believed was no longer, like, the case. And I think that was maybe a sign that something major was going to happen in the world, you know, and that people were needing to be introduced to this concept.”

When Lowe asked Arulpragasam if she is now a born-again Christian, she responded, “I am. I’m not going to lie…even if it costs me my career, I won’t lie. I will tell the truth, and I will tell you what’s on my mind and my heart.”

Lowe pointed out there are people who will rationalize Arulpragasam’s experience, explaining it with scientific instead of supernatural reasons. She responded that she was not using drugs when she had the encounter with Jesus and that she was not even interested in the Christian God. 

“I was very comfortable in Hinduism at the time it happened. Like, I loved it,” said Arulpragasam. She says she does not know why the vision happened, but speculated, “Maybe there were just enough Christians praying for me.”

At one point in the interview, Lowe observed that “fundamentalist” religion comes with rules and requirements, and he questioned whether Arulpragasam would have to comply with those. The rapper countered that there are extremes in every area of life, including music, and implied that she will attempt to avoid such extremes when it comes to her religious beliefs. “I think this is going to be my journey for a while,” she said.

Arulpragasam admitted, however, that she anticipated some backlash from her followers for her spiritual transformation. “Basically, all of my fans might turn against me because they are all progressives who hate people that believe in Jesus Christ in this country.”

In an interview with Relevant Magazine, Arulpragasam observed that American Christianity comes with certain connotations. “If you say you’re a Christian, I feel like you have to be this person who’s against this thing, who’s against this president, who’s against that thing, who’s against Twitter. It’s so crazy.” 

The artist nevertheless made it plain that she is on a spiritual journey and that there is much that she does not yet understand about Christianity. She said, “Right now I think the only clear thing I can say is that even when I had no belief in Jesus Christ and Christianity, and even when I was 100 percent comfortable in Hinduism, it was a Christian God that turned up to save me…In my time of need, the God that turned up…was not Shiva. It was Jesus.”

Podcast: Celebrities for Jesus

 Celebrity culture has invaded the church. Pastors, who should be shepherds serving the flock, have become idols attracting adoring fans and commanding six- and even seven-figure salaries.

What has happened to the church? How did we get here? And what can be done to counter this truly anti-gospel culture? On this latest podcast, host Julie Roys explores this pervasive problem with Katelyn Beaty, author of ‘Celebrities for Jesus: How Personas, Platforms, and Profits Are Hurting the Church.’ In light of scores of people becoming disillusioned with the church, Katelyn describes the historical development of celebrity culture in the church, the three major temptations celebrity culture has spawned and what believers can do to counter celebrity culture in the church.

China's 'Taylor Swift' Praised for Boldly Living Out Faith Amid Communist Persecution

 

The Chinese Communist Party's restrictive, anti-Christian behavior is well-documented, putting Chinese believers at great risk of danger and persecution.

That's why a famous singer's decision to embrace her faith so openly is captivating people around the globe. G.E.M. (Deng Ziqi) is a popular performer whose star rose after joining a 2014 Chinese singing competition called "I Am a Singer 2," according to Movieguide.

Deng's career immediately took off, skyrocketing her to fame and landing her with the nickname: "China's Taylor Swift."

That's what makes her overt Christian faith so fascinating and compelling. The 31-year-old singer is so open about her beliefs she recently released a 14-song album, "Revelation."

Deng is also known for sharing her Christian faith on social media.

In light of all that's known about persecution in China, Deng's faith-themed music is making international headlines, with Christianity Today calling her latest song, "Gloria," "courageous."

The song's title is based on the English name the singer's father once gave her.

Gen Z's Getting Baptized, Experiencing Radical Move of God on Public College Campus

 Charismanews

A wave of repentance and revival is sweeping across the nation and destroying the "seeker sensitive" church model.

For one congregation, what started as a time of consecration and repentance has led to its Gen Z group getting baptized in a radical move of God. In Corpus Christi, Texas, New Life Church is seeing young people operating out of a spirit of boldness like the Jesus People Movement.

"It has been a spirit of repentance, a spirit of conviction, not legalism ... there is a deep conviction, like hey there is a real holiness of God," says Mike Fehlauer, senior pastor of New Life Church in Corpus Christi, Texas.

It all started in 2018 when Fehlauer read Jesus' letter to the seven churches and was convicted himself in what he calls his "job performance review" through the lens of the seven letters.

The church body looked to what really matters to Jesus. They left the church growth model behind, and what has followed is like a page out of the book of Acts.

On Texas A&M Corpus Christi's campus earlier this year, students gathered on the plaza and many were getting baptized in the fountain during the 53-degree weather and were filled with the Holy Spirit. The church isn't just seeing a spirit of boldness operating through the college students but through middle and high schoolers as well.

In a matter of weeks, they saw 14 Bible clubs form at 14 different schools, all led by students.

"Kids are getting saved, teachers are showing up, they are being ministered to and touched by the Lord," Fehlauer says.

Churches nationwide are praying for revival and waiting for it to one day come, but Fehlauer says pastors have to realize how hungry the people sitting in their pews are.

"Not only are they hungry for the Lord, but they are also hungry for truth," he says.

Fehlauer says the Holy Spirit is ready to move in churches across America, but He can't move where there isn't any room.

"The Holy Spirit will fill all the space you are willing to give Him but we also discovered it's the only space He can fill," he said.

The revival at New Life Church Corpus Christi started in 2018 and it hasn't slowed down. It has only continued to expand. The church is seeing people with terminal diseases healed, blind eyes opening, hearing restored and spontaneous baptism even throughout the week.

After most churches leave the "church growth model," they fear their congregation will wane, but Fehauer says they have more people now than before.

Now starting this fall they are adding an additional six Bible clubs in elementary school, "it really is a movement," Fehauer joyfully proclaims.

Despite the widespread agenda to bring confusion to the identity of the youth on their gender, churches like New Life aren't just taking a defensive approach. They are taking the gospel to the school and are seeing incredible testimonies of lives being completely transformed by the power of God.

"We aren't here to make friends," Fehauer says, but "in the midst of insanity like this whole gender thing, that spirit just wants you to sit down, shut up and be quiet. We've got to be willing to stand up, and we can do it in love, we don't have to be knuckleheads about it."

The collective body of Christ is the only voice Jesus has to share both His grace and His truth.

As more churches leave the playbook behind and turn their services over to the Holy Spirit to have His way, the more the spirit of boldness will continue to flow nationwide and shake the dead back to life.

Once Saved Always Saved?

The majority Evangelical view is that once someone has accepted Christ as Saviour, they are guaranteed salvation. But is it safe to assume that once we are saved, we are saved for always?

This talk helps us decide whether "once saved, always saved" is real assurance or a misleading assumption. The answer will have profound effects on the way we live and disciple others.

Hardtalk - James Lovelock - Population reduction (max 1 billion)

 

James Lovelock: 'Saving the planet is a foolish, romantic extravagance'

Jim Lovelock, environmentalist, scientist, and celebrated proposer of the Gaia hypothesis, has always taken the long view of Earth's future. So it feels appropriate that he should have retired to a coastguard's cottage perched above Chesil Beach on Dorset's Jurassic Coast – so called because 180 million years of geological history lie exposed along its cliffs and coves.

This shoreline is constantly eroding. In the winter storms of 2013, Lovelock's cottage was cut off for four days when the road leading to it was washed into the sea – not that Lovelock, whose latest book is entitled A Rough Ride to the Future, needed any reminder of the precariousness of our world. A decade ago, he predicted that billions would be wiped out by floods, drought and famine by 2040. He is more circumspect about that date these days, but he has not changed his underlying belief that the consequences of global warming will catch up with us eventually. His conviction that humans are incapable of reversing them – and that it is in any case too late to try – is also unaltered. In the week when the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change reported that the world is still miles off meeting its 2030 carbon emission targets, Lovelock cannot easily be dismissed.

There are other doomsayers. What makes this one so unusual is his confounding cheerfulness about the approaching apocalypse. His optimism rests on his faith in Gaia – his revolutionary theory, first formulated in the 1970s, that our planet is not just a rock but a complex, self-regulating organism geared to the long-term sustenance of life. This means, among other things, that if there are too many people for the Earth to support, Gaia – Earth – will find a way to get rid of the excess and carry on.

Lovelock's concern is less with the survival of humanity than with the continuation of life itself. Against that imperative, the decimation of nations is almost inconsequential to him. "You know, I look with a great deal of equanimity on some sort of happening – not too rapid – that reduces our population down to about a billion," he says, five minutes into our meeting. "I think the Earth would be happier ... A population in England of five or 10 million? Yes, I think that sounds about right." To him, even the prospect of a nuclear holocaust has its upside. "The civilizations of the northern hemisphere would be utterly destroyed, no doubt about it," he says, "but it would give life elsewhere a chance to recover. I think actually that Gaia might heave a sigh of relief." continue reading NEWSWEEK

Setting Up the World for the Mark of the Beast

 CBNNEWS.COM

The Chinese government is pushing ahead on many fronts to restrict what its population can and cannot do. They already restrict the right of assembly. They already restrict religious freedom. They certainly restrict political speech. And any speech that is critical of their government (and the way they run things) is definitely cracked down on. 

All you have to do is look at what's happened in Hong Kong over the past just two years and you get a very clear picture of where they're going. But they want to control, and they're doing it right now with social credit scoring where if you don't score a particular way you're not allowed to travel. That's already in place. 

But just imagine a government that if you step out of line they can now turn off all your money and do it instantly so you cannot buy or sell, you don't have the right in the marketplace to participate anymore.

That's what digital currency allows a government to do. And if you think it's just going to happen in China think again. The Federal Reserve already has a study group looking at a digital currency for the United States. Why are they doing that? Because they're afraid China will usurp the U.S. and become the world currency, that digital currency is taking over. 

So you see all the action happening in the stock markets, the various markets for Bitcoin and other digital currencies, their rapid rise, and people becoming overnight millionaires, and billionaires based on the value of these digital currencies, and so the Federal Reserve wants to get in on that action to protect the U.S. Dollar as the world currency. 

We depend on that right now. We're spending ourselves into oblivion and what allows us to do that is that we have the world's (reserve) currency. So we are essentially borrowing against the value of our currency in order to have a two trillion dollar deficit. 

Well, that party has to come to an end at some point in time. China's waiting for that party to end, and they want to step on the world stage with digital currency. Unfortunately, at the end of that, you and I will now be subject to a government that may not agree with your opinions, may not agree with your religion, may not agree with the people you hang out with, and they would absolutely restrict your access to that digital currency in an effort to control you. 

That's how you get the fulfillment of a Bible verse that says you can't buy or sell without a mark.

The prophetic passage referred to in this commentary is found in Revelation 13:16-17:

He required everyone—small and great, rich and poor, free and slave—to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead. And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name.

No Revival without Reformation – A.W. Tozer

Wherever Christians meet these days one word is sure to be heard constantly repeated” that word is revival. …

So strongly is the breeze blowing for revival that scarcely anyone appears to have the discernment or the courage to turn around and lean into the wind, even though the truth may easily lie in that direction. Religion has its vogues very much as do philosophy, politics, and women’s fashions. Historically the major world religions have had their periods of decline and recovery, and those recoveries are bluntly called revivals by the annalists.

Let us not forget that in some lands Islam is now enjoying a revival, and the latest report from Japan indicates that after a brief eclipse following World War II Shintoism is making a remarkable come-back….

A religion, even popular Christianity, could enjoy a boom altogether divorced from the transforming power of the Holy Spirit and so leave the church of the next generation worse off than it would have been if the boom had never occurred. I believe that the imperative need of the day is not simply revival, but a radical reformation that will go to the root of our moral and spiritual maladies and deal with causes rather than with consequences, with the disease rather than with symptoms.

It is my considered opinion that under the present circumstances we do not want revival at all. A widespread revival of the kind of Christianity we know today in America might prove to be a moral tragedy from which we would not recover in a hundred years.

Here are my reasons. A generation ago, as a reaction to Higher Criticism and its offspring, Modernism, there arose in Protestantism a powerful movement in defense of the historic Christian faith. This, for obvious reasons, came to be known as Fundamentalism. It was a more or less spontaneous movement without much organization, but its purpose, wherever it appeared, was the same: to stay ‘the rising tide of negation’ in Christian theology and to restate and defend the basic doctrines of the New Testament Christianity….

Falls Victim to Its Virtues

What is generally overlooked is that Fundamentalism, as it spread throughout the various denominations and nondenominational groups, fell victim to its own virtues. The Word died in the hands of its friends. … An unofficial hierarchy decided what Christians were to believe. Not the Scriptures, but what the scribe thought the Scriptures meant became the Christian creed. Christian colleges, seminaries, Bible institutes, Bible conferences, and popular Bible expositors all joined to promote the cult of textualism. The system of extreme dispensationalism which was devised relieved the Christian of repentance, obedience, and cross-carrying in any other than the most formal sense. Whole sections of the New Testament were taken from the church and disposed of after a rigid system of dividing the Word of truth.”

All this resulted in a religious mentality inimical to the true faith of Christ. … The basic doctrines of the Bible were there, but the climate was just not favorable to the sweet fruits of the Spirit.

The whole mood was different from that of the Early Church and of the great souls who suffered and sang and worshiped in the centuries past. The doctrines were sound but something vital was missing. The tree of correct doctrine was never allowed to blossom. The voice of the turtle [dove] was rarely heard in the land”…. Faith, a mighty, vitalizing doctrine in the mouths of the apostles, became in the mouth of the scribe another thing altogether and the power went from it. As the letter triumphed, the Spirit withdrew and textualism ruled supreme….

In the interest of accuracy, it should be said that this was a general condition only. Certainly, there were some even in those low times whose longing hearts were better theologians than their teachers were. These pressed on to fullness and power unknown to the rest. But they were not many and the odds were too great” they could not dispel the mist that hung over the land.

The error of textualism is not doctrinal. It is far more subtle than that and much more difficult to discover, but its effects are just as deadly. Not its theological beliefs are at fault, but its assumptions.

It assumes, for instance, that if we have the word for a thing we have the thing itself. If it is in the Bible, it is in us. If we have the doctrine, we have the experience. If something was true of Paul it is of necessity true of us because we accept Paul’s epistles as divinely inspired. The Bible tells us how to be saved, but textualism goes on to make it tell us that we are saved, something which in the very nature of things it cannot do. Assurance of individual salvation is thus no more than a logical conclusion drawn from doctrinal premises, and the resultant experience is wholly mental.

Revolt from Mental Tyranny

The human mind can endure textualism just so long before it seeds a way of escape. The result over the last twenty years has been a religious debauch hardly equaled since Israel worshipped the golden calf. Of us Bible Christians it may truthfully be said that we ‘sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.’ The separating line between the Church and the world has been all but obliterated.

Aside from a few of the gross sins, the sins of the unregenerate world are now approved by a shocking number of professedly “born-again’ Christians and copied eagerly. Young Christians take as their models the rankest kind of worldlings and try to be as much like them as possible. Religious leaders have adopted the techniques of the advertisers; boasting, bating and shameless exaggerating are now carried on as a normal procedure in church work…..

The holy faith of our fathers has in many places been made a form of entertainment, and the appalling thing is that all this has been fed down to the masses from the top.

That note of protest which began with the New Testament and which was always heard loudest went the Church was most powerful has been successfully silenced. The radical element in testimony and life that once made Christians hated by the world is missing from present-day evangelism.

Christians were once revolutionists– moral, not political — but we have lost our revolutionary character. It is no longer either dangerous or costly to be a Christian….. We are busy these days proving to the world that they can have all the benefits of the Gospel without any of the inconvenience to their customary way of life. It’s ‘all this and heaven too.’…

For this reason, it is useless for… believers to spend long hours begging God to send revival. Unless we intend to reform, we may as well not pray. Unless praying men have the insight and faith to amend their whole way of life to conform to the New Testament patterns, there can be no true revival.

The New World Order and The Great Reset with Charlie Kirk

 

 

 Don't believe we're headed for a one-world government soon? Cultural commentator and political activist Charlie Kirk, along with Jack Hibbs, founder and senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills in Chino Hills, California, warns you not to be deceived.

Kirk, 28, who founded Turning Point Ministries USA, says that the World Economic Forum, founded and led by Klaus Schwab, is on a mission to destroy Western values—biblical values—and to drive the Ten Commandments out of our culture.

"They are doing everything they possibly can to break the Ten Commandments," Kirk says. "It's broader than that, but I think that's a good way to frame it. The Ten Commandments are a really good starting point. They are morally transcendent, and any person that lives them out will be flourishing and grow closer to God. But when they say they want to break those, they're going to try to do it not just through the laws but also through trying to make the opposite acceptable and, in fact, glorify it."

The World Economic Forum has seven predictions for nations around the globe that they hope will take hold by 2030:

You will own nothing and be happy.

The U.S. won't be the world's superpower.

You won't die waiting for an organ donor.

You'll eat less meat.

A billion people will be displaced by climate change.

You could be preparing to go to Mars.

Western values will have been tested to their breaking point.

"The West did not create these values (the Ten Commandments); these are biblical values," Hibbs says. "Those values are from the Middle East, from Israel and the God of Israel. It's the West that adopted those values. Any nation, any continent, any person can adopt those values. The West chose to do that.

"Our Founding Fathers believed the Scriptures and made sure the First Amendment was the first amendment and the Second Amendment was the second amendment, because they understood two things: No matter what laws you passed, God has put it within a human being to speak his mind. You can't outlaw that, and our Founding Fathers knew that. And second, you must recognize that a family will do everything it can to protect itself from destruction from an invader, and that's what believers need to do to protect their country."

Kirk reiterates, "Western values are an extension of the Judeo-Christian construct, specifically New Testament teaching. Western values are a belief in God-granted natural rights, separation of powers, and consent of the governed. Western values reject the idea that a singular individual has the mandate to rule over you without question.

"Western values are the fruits of the Enlightenment blended correctly with the truths of the Bible. Western values are why we are able to have the technological advancements, the medical advancements, and the communication advancements that we enjoy. Western values, they are really saying biblical values. What they are trying to do is to break, by 2030, biblical values—more specifically, they want to break every single one of the Ten Commandments. Every single one."
