Calvin L. Smith: Stephen Sizer as Anti-Replacement Theology Champion?

bloketree I just thought I would direct you to a post written by Dr Calvin Smith, a post for all of you who are interested in modern Israel, the Jews and the implications for the Church. In that post he writes about Stephen Sizer, supercessionism and replacement theology which is an ongoing debate within Christendom at the moment. As time goes on — and as Israel and Jerusalem becomes more of a stumbling block in the political world — it will also become a topic that concerns the Church more and more.

Here’s a snippet of the post to whet your appetite…

I note Stephen Sizer will be speaking at Bethlehem Bible College’s Christ at the Checkpoint conference (March 2010), aimed at promoting a reading and reflection upon Scripture from a distinctly Palestinian perspective. The title of Sizer’s paper is "Israel and the Church: Challenging Zionism, Anti-Semitism and Replacement Theology."

Anyway, the notion of Stephen challenging replacement theology appears somewhat incongruous. In the past, several other supercessionists have tried (not very successfully) to distance themselves from the label "replacement theology". You see, ditching punitive supercessionism while holding to variations of either economic or structural supercessionism (see R. Kendall Soulen’s useful book The God of Israel and Christian Theology for definitions of the terminology) doesn’t qualify as having eschewed replacement theology. True, there are technical differences between these variations of supercessionism, nonetheless all mean the same thing semantically and theologically[…]

If you want to weigh in on the debate, I know that Calvin would be all to willing and happy to answer any questions about this ongoing issue regarding The Jews, Modern Israel and the New Supercessionism that we see today.

Is world uniting in Copenhagen?

You may remember I posted a youtube at the end of October that had Lord Christopher Monckton give a presentation in St. Paul, MN on the subject of global warming. In this 4-minute excerpt from his speech, he issues a dire warning to all Americans regarding the United Nations Climate Change Treaty that is scheduled to be signed in Copenhagen in December 2009. That post also contained many links with a whole heap of information about the United Nations Climate Change Treaty. [It’s probably best if you go back to that post and watch the video to recap on this issue before reading the latest news regarding this particular treaty.]

Well, anyhooo… this has led to a petition against the Copenhagen treaty, you can read all about it HERE.

According to the Minnesota Free Market Institute, the video, as originally posted, has collected 2.2 million views and almost 700 pages of comments, but there also are more than 100 other cloned versions of Monckton’s comments on YouTube and the aggregate views exceed 3.5 million.

The video helped launch a national petition drive opposing the Copenhagen treaty at NoCapAndTrade.com, with its more than 135,000 messages to Congress opposing the plan. It’s been discussed by Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Laura Ingraham and Michelle Malkin, among others.

Now there are indications the light of information being spread about the potential problems is casting shadows on the proposal.

"The more people learn about the supposed issue of ‘climate change’ and how green extremists intend to control our lives, the more skeptical they become," said Jeff Davis, president of the Minnesota Majority. Is world uniting in Copenhagen?

Interesting huh???

More Books and Things…: Cycle Theory Series – The Convergence

This morning I posted something about 2012 and a video from an Astrobiologist who answers the questions regarding 2012 and the end of the world through catastrophic change. If you didn’t see that post you can find it HERE.

Anyway, Carla [hat-tip: More Books and Things] has found three very important articles that speak about “Cycle Theory”. You can find her post here: More Books and Things…: Cycle Theory Series – The Convergence.

But just to blurb about it…

The hype surrounding 2012 provides a backdrop to explain what is happening on a “spiritual level” in conjunction with the ancient civilizations as well as keep an apocalyptic fear of dis-aster at the forefront of our thoughts. It is imperative that we maintain situational awareness in our personal lives—that we not accept a spirit of fear, allow the deception to creep into our thoughts, and become part of the “community.”

Biblically speaking, what makes this convergence of cycles so different from those observed in history? Israel is in the land—in unbelief as foretold by the prophets. We are operating on God’s time clock now. Truth is that point where word and deed meet. What lays on our horizon is that point where God’s Word and His deeds become one and prophecy is fulfilled. All indications point to a time of unprecedented upheaval to life as we know it. But then again, we’ve read the Book and we know the ending. [The Convergence of 2012 Part 3]

If you want to know how Mary Miller came to the above observation about ‘Cycle Theory’ read:

Stop Hypocrisy at the United Nations

I have been getting quite a few emails in regards to the corrupt U.N. Security Council lately…

The United Nations Human Rights Council spends a great deal of its time condemning Israel while ignoring real human rights abuses. Recently, the Council approved a resolution endorsing the one-sided, biased report of Judge Richard Goldstone and accusing Israel of “War Crimes.” This resolution will now be considered by the U.N. Security Council. Please sign the petition at the end of this short video that will be sent to President Obama and the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council urging them to veto this biased resolution.

The Negro Project | Margaret Sanger Would Have Loved Barack Obama

abortion

As long as there is breath in my body I will always speak out against all forms of abortion be it early term or partial birth abortions and now we have The Born Alive Victims Act to which a certain politician voted against. Those babies do not have a voice, but I do! I really don’t see a difference in early termination to late term abortion. My last post showed you a video of an ultrasound image of a twelve week old baby struggling violently against the doctors suction tube which rips this baby apart limb to limb. The baby heartbeat doubles in rate, the baby opens its mouth as if to scream and tries to escape its impeding death!

abortion9aI don’t care what particular leaders in our society are in favour of this silent holocaust. Whether they are politicians of the charismatic nature on either side of the political fence or ministers who are so liberal in their biblical theology that they have watered down the Word of God to better suit their sensibilities. Aargh!!! I think I want to throw up when I think of such ministers of the faith who have become so spineless that they fear man rather than God! I have absolutely no respect for such people! None!

To be sure, if you speak out against the accepted social norm in any way you will be called a right wing extremist and labelled a moron, idiot and many other things that do not bare repeating on my blog. The fact is, abortion is murder and it does kill babies. By the time a mother finds out that she is pregnant, chances are the baby’s heart is already beating! Is that life or not?

Anyway, in my research in regards to this most horrible topic I have come across a name that you may or may not have heard of — Margaret Sanger. She was a staunch racist and she had an agenda…

 

The strategy:

Convince the targeted community to accept their eugenic racist plan by selecting one from their ethnicity to promote it.  One of Planned Parenthood’s earliest known projects was in 1939.  It was called the “Negro Project” — a project designed to control the birth of "human weeds" which was how Margaret Sanger referred to colored people; a project designed to introduce abortion, sterilization and different forms of birth control.  This is what a co-eugenic wrote to Margaret Sanger to make sure the "Negro Project" was a success:

Clarence Gamble, heir of Proctor and Gamble, wrote a memorandum in November, 1939 entitled: "Suggestions for the Negro Project."  In the letter he suggested black leaders “be placed in positions where it would appear they were in charge."

This is a letter to Clarence Gamble, from Margaret Sanger, in which she wrote,

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities.  The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal.  We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

For those of you that don’t know, Barack Obama became a "minister" of Planned Parenthood a long time ago.  He’s so good at carrying out their racist, murderous, agenda against Afro-Americans and society at large, they gave him a 100% score on his voting record.  Planned Parenthood is following the strategy of their racist founder, Margaret Sanger, to the letter.

[…]

Pam Sutherland … of … Illinois Planned Parenthood … told ABC News, "We worked with him specifically on his strategy.  The Republicans were in control of the Illinois Senate at the time.  They loved to hold votes on ‘partial birth’ and ‘born alive.’ They put these bills out all the time because they wanted to pigeonhole Democrats. …"

Let me interpret.  We, Planned Parenthood, told him what to say, and how to say it, so we could continue to kill infants; babies, just a few inches from birth, and those completely out of the womb that we missed!  Our "colored minister" was well prepared by Planned Parenthood.  Partial Birth abortion — which I will not describe here — but know that 80% of Americans don’t want this barbaric act practiced in this country – Barack Obama voted to keep legal!  The Born Alive Victims Act is a law to protect a child that was born alive after a botched abortion; a law that would require that the child would receive medical assistance.  Barack Obama voted against it! Yes.  Barack Obama, with an "engaging personality" is being used by the leading abortion provider in the United States to promote and execute infanticide of predominately minority babies!

Obama pays top lawyers to prevent the truth coming out!

090425obamathetruthHmmmmm, interesting little piece on President Obama. And to be sure George W. Bush doesn’t get a free pass in this article either!

President Obama has a high-priced team of Los Angeles lawyers whom he pays out of his own pocket. Evidently, their only task is to prevent Americans from learning anything about him.

The firm of Strumwasser and Woocher are fighting against the production of Obama’s college records from Occidental College in California. Presumably, those records may shed light on how Obama managed to travel to Pakistan in 1980 without a US passport.
Or whether or not Barry Soetero was registered as a US citizen or foreign national. Or how he ended up making the jump from a community college to Columbia and Harvard.
This high-priced legal team is also fighting to prevent the production of his actual birth certificate, passport records, hospital records or any other documentary evidence useful in determining his actual citizenship.

A treaty is about to be signed to create a New World Order in December — via climate control!

A treaty is about to be signed to create a New World Order in December

Just found this on facebook thanks to Pastor Corby Stephens. We are at a the last hour of freedom before the world enters into a New World Order. This New World Order has to come about for the anti-christ to rise! It has been prophesied in the book of Daniel and Revelation.

Here is the video which is a must see. And I have just copied and pasted some more information that was found at the youtube site for you to go through.

So watch and take in what is being said here…

On October 14, Lord Christopher Monckton gave a presentation in St. Paul, MN on the subject of global warming. In this 4-minute excerpt from his speech, he issues a dire warning to all Americans regarding the United Nations Climate Change Treaty that is scheduled to be signed in Copenhagen in December 2009.

A draft of the treaty can be read here:

http://www.globalclimatescam.com/docu…

Chuck Norris has an article in WorldNetDaily with a good analysis of the treaty:

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE….

There has been considerable debate raised about Monckton’s conclusion that the Copenhagen Treaty would cede US sovereignty. His comments appear to be based upon his interpretation of the The Supremacy Clause in the US Constitution (Article VI, paragraph 2). This clause establishes the Constitution, Federal Statutes, and U.S. TREATIES as the supreme law of the land. Concerns have been raised in the past that a particularly ambitious treaty may supersede the US Constitution. In the 1950s, a constitutional amendment, known as the Bricker Amendment, was proposed in response to such fears, but it failed to pass. You can read more about the Bricker Amendment in a 1953 Time Magazine article:

http://www.time.com/time/magazine/art…,9171,806676-1,00.html

Lord Monckton served as a policy adviser to Margaret Thatcher. He has repeatedly challenged Al Gore to a debate to which Gore has refused. Monckton sued to stop Gore’s film “An Inconvenient Truth” from being shown in British schools due to its inaccuracies. The judge found in-favor of Monckton, ordering 9 serious errors in the film to be corrected. Lord Monckton travels internationally in an attempt to educate the public about the myth of global warming.

Aliens are spiritual in nature…

My last post was about the possibility of Alien Disclosure from President Obama. Now, I prefaced that post with a caution to be discerning which I hope you will do.

Listening further to the interview between Art Bell and Dr. Stephen Greer, Greer spoke about what you should do if you come across a close encounter of the third kind. He said that you should not panic, meditate and centre yourself into a non-locality consciousness and what he means by that is that you can learn how to centre your consciousness into a universal constant. I bet that sounds familiar to those of you who have been researching the emerging church movement??? He goes on to say that you must to this to invite them to come over and open up a spirit of dialogue!

You can listen to that interview HERE. He goes on to say that if you are skilled in this you can remote view the occupants of the UFO.

So… yep, this is a spiritual thing. He then goes on to say that you can purchase materials on his website that will help you learn how to get into this deep meditative state so that you can invite these Aliens in and have what  he calls an CE5 encounter; a close encounter of the fifth kind.

"HIDDEN TRUTH" BOOK and CD

The amazing autobiography of Steven M. Greer, MD – "Hidden Truth – Forbidden Knowledge". In one of the most astounding and moving true stories ever told, Dr. Greer relates his own personal experiences with Extraterrestrial peoples and the unfolding of cosmic awareness since his childhood. From his sighting of a UFO at an early age, to his amazing near-death experience at age 17, to his unraveling of the secret cabal running the illegal transnational energy and UFO-related projects, to his meetings with a CIA Director, US Senators, heads of state and royalty – you will be moved, shocked and enlightened as you read through this memoir. Read more.
Order the book and CD separately. The CD includes the following Guided Meditations from the book:

  • Structure of the Universe – 31 minutes
  • Contacting ET Beings and a Meditation and Prayer for Earth

The Disclosure Project – Shopping

He also has a CD set called Cosmic Consciousness – A course in advance mantra meditation. Just check out “The Disclosure Project – Shopping” link above.

Now… with all the centering prayer and meditation that is going on in the Church and with the UFOlogists doing the same thing and trying to connect with a something that is inter-dimensional, does this not concern you??? Think about how the whole environmental crusaders would be willing to listen to possible answers that help this planet clean up. Are we being primed to accept something that is super-spiritual in nature? Has the bible spoke about this? I believe the bible has. And what is says is that there will be a strong delusion sent by God Himself…

2Th 2:9  The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders,
2Th 2:10  and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.
2Th 2:11  Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false,

Why is this sent?

Because they don’t love the truth that would save them!

What is that truth?

Love of the truth — not merely love of truth, but love of THE truth (and of, Jesus who is the Truth, in opposition to Satan’s “lie,” 2Th 2:9, 2Th 2:11; Joh 8:42-44), can save (Eph 4:21). We are required not merely to assent to, but to love the truth (Psa 119:97).

In The Days: Current news events in the light of biblical prophecy » Official disclosure of extraterrestrial life is imminent

nephilim2 Ok…I said I was going to have a break, but I did happen across a post on one of my favourite blogs “More Books and Things” that needed to be brought to light. Please use discernment in regards to this topic. Remember that we should have our eyes fixed only on Jesus and His Word.

I have blogged about Aliens and the possibility of disclosure this year HERE. And you can find my other posts regarding this fascinating topic HERE. From these posts you will learn that there is a massive push for governments and other NGOs to disclose what they know about “Aliens” and “Advanced Technology”!

The following quote is from a Christian site that looks at current political events in light of biblical prophecy and I guess we will just have to wait and see if anything at all comes from this…

Obama’s September 24, 2009 chairing of the UN Security Council meeting on nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament, signaled his emerging leadership role in tackling major global issues such as nuclear weapons. The Nobel Peace Prize was an important step in giving global legitimacy to President Obama in making an extraterrestrial disclosure announcement. Obama is therefore poised to play a prominent role in the increased global governance that will be necessary after an extraterrestrial disclosure announcement. The timing would most likely coincide sometime soon after his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech on December 10, 2009 in Oslo, Norway.

There have been various sources that have revealed deliberations are underway to make an announcement concerning the existence of extraterrestrial life by the end of 2009. These include, Dr Pete Peterson, a whistleblower who has recently emerged revealing high level discussions have taken place concerning announcing the existence of extraterrestrial life. In a Project Camelot interview, Dr Peterson revealed that “Obama is planning to disclose the reality of ET contact by the end of the year; and that most, but not all, of the ET visitors are friendly.”
Another source is David Wilcock, a prominent researcher of emerging scientific paradigms. Wilcock has been told by additional independent sources that extraterrestrial disclosure will take place by the end of 2009. He furthermore claimed in a Coast to Coast AM radio interview that “a 2-hour international TV special has already been booked that will introduce an alien species, similar to humans, to the world.”

In addition, popular NASA and space researcher, Richard Hoagland, has publicly come forward to reveal that the October 9, LCROSS ‘bombing’ mission of the moon, discovered an ancient base at the moon’s South Pole.

In The Days: Current news events in the light of biblical prophecy » Official disclosure of extraterrestrial life is imminent

Interestingly, the whole energy crisis is part and parcel of this whole disclosure plan. Meetings are taking place concerning the continuation of burning fossil fuels and how this is destroying our earth. In these meetings they speak about extra-terrestrial technologies that would put a stop to all of that. Dr. Stephen Greer has started a website called orionproject.org and this website seeks to bring scientists together to talk about environmental and social crisis concerns…

The Orion Project is an organization created to transform the current energy, environmental and social crisis into a world of sustainability and Enlightened Abundance.

Technological progress in the areas of advanced physics and electromagnetic systems, if appropriately supported, will enable humanity to live on the Earth with a minimal footprint with genuine long-term sustainability.

For over 100 years, these advanced concepts in energy generation have either been ignored or actively suppressed due to the power of fossil-fuel based economic and industrial interests. [source]

Listen to this youtube where Dr Stephen Greer speaks about the possible coming disclosure and the economic reasoning why it has happened yet. He also speaks about the current global energy crisis and how advanced technology from these “aliens” may just help save the world from itself.

For more youtube on this see HERE.

Advanced technology from unusual sources has happened before. In the days of Noah the sons of God visited and pro-created with the daughters of man. They produced the Nephilim.

Gen 6:4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them: the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.

Notice that it says that the Nephilim were on the earth during the days of Noah and also after that.

These Nephilim/Watchers according to the book of Enoch also gave rise to great technical advancement on the earth before the great flood. This time was of a “Great Awakening” for humanity.

Another Christian author has come to the same conclusion that these ‘Aliens’ are demonic forces, the same forces found in Genesis 6…

UFOs are real, they’re just not from outer space. So says Chuck Missler in his informative book, Alien Encounters: The Secret Behind the UFO Phenomenon. Missler is convinced that the alleged aliens publicized these days are demonic forces, and equates them convincingly with the angels that co-habited with women in Genesis 6. Stay with me for these few paragraphs and see if your curiosity isn’t piqued just a bit. Granted, there are many details we don’t know about the pre-flood days, but in my opinion, Missler’s hypothesis fills in a lot of gaps (Matt. 24:37). Read more at – A Deception of Cosmic Proportions

Anyway, much more could be said about these ‘Watchers’ also known as the ‘Nephilim’ and to the secular world they are known as ‘Aliens’. In fact, they go by many different names depending of the culture. Just googling “Ancient Astronauts” “Star gods” “Anunnaki” will bring up a wealth of information about these ancient visitors. In fact, almost every ancient culture shares the same kind of story about “Star gods” coming down and creating mankind! This is called “Panspermia”.

The book of Genesis says that we are created in the image of God – a monotheistic God! But it does go on to talk about the sons of God coming down and copulating with the daughters of men!

As Jews celebrate in their tens of thousands the festival of Booths, Succot, religious extremists like Sheikh Raed Salah incite Palestinian masses to recapture Jerusalem with “blood and fire.” Not to be outdone, the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah rushed in to pour fuel on the fire as it protests a “plan by Jews to perform religious rituals” on the Temple Mount,’ and called on the international community to “force Israel to put off its attempts to take over Jerusalem.” In The Days: Current news events in the light of biblical prophecy » Like it or not, the Temple Mount is key to Israeli-Palestinian peace

Secret meetings have already been held by finance ministers and central bank governors in Russia, China, Japan and Brazil to work on the scheme, which will mean that oil will no longer be priced in dollars.

2012 forecast: Food riots, ghost malls, mob rule, terror

The big toe is being cut down to size. And Celente predicts a gloomy future for the USA.

Who is Celente? Well, here’s what others are saying about him…

 

If Nostradamus were alive today, he’d have a hard time keeping up with Gerald Celente. — New York Post

When CNN wants to know about the Top Trends, we ask Gerald Celente. — CNN Headline News

A network of 25 experts whose range of specialties would rival many university faculties. —The Economist

Gerald Celente has a knack for getting the zeitgeist right

.— USA Today

Here is a youtube with Gerald Celente that has short clips of his predictions…

So, where does he see America in 2012, below is his predictions. Not happy days that is for sure.

"There’s no recovery. This is merely a cover-up," he said. "The market crashed in March of 2009 and around the world they papered over the damage from the collapse with phantom money printed out of thin air backed by nothing," he said.

This is "much bigger" than an economic collapse, he said. "This is the decline of empire America."

"Look what’s happened to the dollar," he warned. "Gold prices are surging forward. That’s the evidence. The rest that’s coming from Washington and Wall Street is rhetoric."

"This is the beginning of the greatest depression. We’re telling our readers to take pro-active measures in anticipation of much worse to come," he said.

USA Today says Celente "has a knack for getting the zeitgeist right," and CNBC says, "The man knows what he’s talking about."

The Wall Street Jounral has said, "Those who take their predictions seriously … consider the Trends Research Institute."

He said during the Radio America/WND interview that retail sales this coming Christmas season will be the "real nail in the economic coffin."

"The second American revolution has already begun; it just hasn’t been announced yet by the mainstream media," he said. "Anybody waiting for hope to show up at the door with a big bag full of money is going to be in for a shock."

Tim Barello in the Examiner noted that since 1980 Celente has made at least 40 accurate predictions about major world events, such as the 1987 stock market crash.

"Throughout the 1990’s, many other forecasts came true, including the collapse of the Soviet Union, surges in global terrorism, the popularity of spiritual and new age philosophies, public backlash against globalization, upsurges in online shopping, and the 1997 Asian financial crisis, to name a select few," he wrote.

Now comes his forecast for a global depression and for the United States, "Obamageddon."

Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize – Based on promises…

actions-speak-louder-than-words-199245

I didn’t know about this…

The Nobel Committee in Oslo has stunned the world by awarding President Obama its prize for peace, citing his "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples,"

The announcement was unexpected considering Mr. Obama received the award after winning the presidential election just nine months earlier and took office only weeks before the Feb. 1 nomination deadline.

During the press conference to announce the winner, there were gasps in the room when Mr. Obama’s name was announced in Norwegian by Thorbjoern Jagland, chairman of the Nobel Committee said. Moments later, the announcement was made again in English.

You know, the Nobel Committee said it gave the peace prize to Obama because of all he’s done reduce the number of nuclear weapons. This just shows that I’ve got to start following the news more closely. I thought everybody still had nukes.

I heard someone say that the Nobel Committee gave Obama the peace prize just because he’s not George W. Bush, but I don’t buy that. I mean, with Bush we had a war in Iraq and a war in Afghanistan and detainees in Guantanamo Bay. But with Obama we’ve got a war in Iraq … and a war in Afghanistan … and detainees in Guantanamo Bay. Hey! Wait a minute!

Here’s the article – Carleton Bryant: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize

And this…

OSLO – The announcement drew gasps of surprise and cries of too much, too soon. Yet President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday because the judges found his promise of disarmament and diplomacy too good to ignore.

"It is an award that speaks to the promise of President Obama’s message of hope," Tutu said.[source]

So now we give awards to people who promise to do this or that do we???

Well, let’s see if by his actions over the next few years that he actually deserves this Nobel Peace Prize shall we!

Cybersecurity in the USA

freedomofspeech-thumb1

Draft Senate Bill: In Cybersecurity Emergencies, President Can Seize Control of Computer Networks –The President would be able to declare a Cybersecurity emergency and then direct the response to that threat. 06 Oct 2009 …[A]ides to Senator Jay Rockefeller reportedly have been working recently on a revised draft Senate bill that would give the President broad powers in the event of a Cybersecurity emergency, and that apparently would go so far as allowing the President to temporarily seize control over computer networks in the private sector. This power is akin to the power President [sic] Bush exerted when he grounded commercial aircraft in the wake of the September 11, 2001 World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks, according to a reported Senate source.

Why is the above important? Well that coupled with “hate crime” and “religious vilification” laws it seems that with each passing day we [America, Canada, Australia] are drawing closer to a pre-world war 11 Germany…

I had Holocaust survivor Anita Dittman share her insights on this topic.

Hitler took control of the airwaves. He allowed no dissenters. Barack Obama has recently appointed Mark Lloyd, an extreme Leftist in ideology, as head of the FCC. He is not bashful in saying that he is going to fine conservative/Christian networks for presenting the kind of programming they do. The nearly $250 million fine money will be turned over to National Public Radio (NPR). Obviously no network could survive such a fine when radio today is suffering like many other industries. While you may think he will only target Rush and Sean, I assure you that “Understanding the Times” radio is in the crosshairs.

Pastors in Germany came under the gun — literally. If they spoke against Hitler or his policies, they were punished. We have “hate crime” laws in America now that have pastors and other good and righteous people targeted.

Anita Dittman recalls that many of the German people were blind. They were in a daze. And, they were biblically illiterate, even if they were long-time church members. Most churches had been watered down and thus marched willingly along, making no effort to stand for truth.  Perhaps, had they been biblically grounded, they might not have caved.

Red Letter Christians: Neo-Marxism in the Church?

I have spoken about this a few years ago HERE, HERE, and more recently I address “Christian Pragmatism” HEREin a book called ‘Mere Christianity’ by C S Lewis. In that book, Lewis says that soon enough being a Christian would mean just to be a good person and not necessarily holding to biblical truths…Now if once we allow people to start spiritualising and refining, or as they might say ‘deepening’, the sense of the word Christian, it too will speedily become a useless word. I wondered at how this would start, this newly defined Christianity. From what I have seen it is pragmatism that has paved ‘a’ road — and I say a say ‘a’ road because I believe that this road is one of many roads – to an all inclusive self authentic spiritual life.

And don’t think that this is not a political Christianity…During the latter part of the nineteenth century virtually all cardinal doctrines of the faith were challenged or denied by the growing liberalism (derived mostly from German Rationalism and Higher Criticism) which was threatening the evangelical  church. From the Godhead to the necessity for salvation to the existence of hell to the atonement to the inspiration of Scripture to the meaning of the gospel, every doctrine held precious by the evangelical community was gutted of biblical meaning and infused with ideas fitting the times.

Gary E. Gilley rightly says…

But the contention of conservative believers has always been that life emerges from sound doctrine; right living is never formed in a truth vacuum.  Joel Beeke had it right when he wrote, “Doctrine must produce life, and life must adorn doctrine.”

[…]These men (McLaren and Bell) see no vital connection between what we believe and how we live, between orthodoxy and orthopraxy.  Having accepted this disconnect they move on to elevate orthopraxy to the exclusion of orthodoxy.  Right beliefs are simply superfluous.  How we live is all that matters.  Pragmatism reigns. [source]

It seems that many people are being challenged by the Red Letter Christians, as predicted. But where does this lead? These value voters have re-directed the more controversial conservative biblical values and have taken the safer road toward more contemporary issues like social in-justice and environmental issues; that is to say they have broadened their views toward the global village. In broadening their path do they run the risk of not even finding the narrow gate – maybe the path has become less recognizable because the signposts have changed altogether and are pointing to different things? (Matt 7:17)

So it seems that a stronghold in the post-modern Church is “Christian Marxism” and those who are leading the naive Church are finding a political voice like never before… 

Some who believe this way practice a form of neo-Marxism and others would call it "Christian Marxism" — an oxymoron if there ever was one. They note that the early church shared everything (socialism).  A close cousin to this is "liberation theology.  "Those who are high profile in this movement include Jim Wallis, Tony Campolo, Brian McLaren and his Emergent bunch, and the National Council of Churches.

red Red-letter Christians join the chorus of those who believe in a utopia with no wanting or war. Yes, that will come someday, but not the way they think. This could come as a shock to them just because they have little to no regard for other parts of the Bible. They have almost created a new meaning for the term "biblical illiteracy." 

It is also tragic that these folks are frequently called "the evangelical Left." They don’t have even 1% of evangelical theology in a single bone in their body. They cherry- pick the verses they like, almost exclusively the red letters of Jesus.

Also on a sad note, the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) is promoting a Leftist conference featuring Jim Wallis October 21. This was announced in their "NAE Update" received today, October 5, by e-mail. Tooley’s more Mainline Protestant Institute for Religion and Democracy takes a more righteous stand against Leftist causes than does the NAE.

Perversion 101: Kids taught ‘gay’ sex, rape, bestiality

Disgusting. What is this world coming too…?

A father of a high-school student is infuriated after he said a teacher provided "banned books" to her 11th-grade students, including at least one with explicit descriptions of homosexual sex acts, rape, masturbation, profane language and even bestiality.

John Davis, father of an 11th-grade student at William Byrd High School in Vinton, Va., told WND that English teacher Kathleen Renard provided her personal copy of a book called "Perks of Being a Wallflower" by Stephen Chbosky to one of her English students, and it was passed to his son. The book is published by MTV Books.

Davis found the book in his son’s possession, along with a bookmark that said, "Read banned books. They’re your ticket to freedom."  Perversion 101: Kids taught ‘gay’ sex, rape, bestiality

Swine Flu – Big Business, Big Government…

image

I found this pdf file written by Andrew Bosworth, Ph.D. and it makes for some VERY interesting reading. 

If the current H1N1 swine flu virus does become abnormally lethal, there would be three leading explanations: first, that the virus was accidentally released, or escaped, from a laboratory; second, that a disgruntled lab employee unleashed the virus (as happened, according to the official version of events, with the 2001 anthrax attack); or third, that a group, corporation or government agency intentionally released the virus in the interests of profit and power.

Interestingly, numerous doctors and scientists suspect that the swine flu virus was cultured in a laboratory. A mainstream Australian virologist, Adrian Gibbs – who was one of the first to analyze the genetic properties of the 2009 swine flu – believes that scientists accidentally created the H1N1 virus while producing vaccines. And Dr. John Carlo, Dallas Co. Medical Director, "This strain of swine influenza that’s been cultured in a laboratory is something that’s not been seen anywhere actually in the United States and the world, so this is actually a new strain of influenza that’s been identified."(4) Because of this, the 2009 swine flu virus — which has yet to be detected in any animals — has a rather suspicious pedigree.

Dr. Bosworth has written a book called Biotech Empire which basically write from a constitutionalist and libertarian perspective. The book explains how the United States, which produced the Bill of Rights and landed a man on the moon, is now distinguished by mass surveillance, mass conditioning and mass incarceration. Big Business and Big Government – motivated by perpetual profits and unlimited power – are creating a high-tech Gilded Age: a "Biotech Empire."

This book’s perspective is both libertarian and populist: libertarian in its distrust of government and populist in its distrust of corporate oligarchies. It holds that ordinary people, instead of being ensnared in a matrix of economic and political control, should have a say about how biotechnology affects their lives.

The writing is critical of Democrats, whose cosmetic reforms serve entrenched interests; it also savages Republicans, whose party is famous for corporate welfare, voter suppression, fear mongering, nonstop propaganda, counterfeit Christianity, and Guantanamo.

Hiya... this is just a little blurb about why this blog exists. Living journey is pretty much a personal blog with emphasis on religion, culture, politics with a bit of personal thrown in.

It's about me living a journey as a Christian woman, wife, mother of three and one Grandson. Hence the name "living journey"
