ON WHOSE MORALITY WILL WE BASE OUR LAWS?

Posted on by

Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States inherited English common law from Great Britain.  It has a well-deserved reputation for fair and impartial justice, which is the indispensable foundation of a free society.  Without justice that is fair and impartial, freedom allows the powerful to use their freedom to crush the freedom of all who are less powerful.  Not until a community has built justice and freedom is it able to build the flourishing prosperity available only through the biblical system of private enterprise.

Are you surprised that much of the law that governs Australia is deeply rooted in Christianity?  If you are surprised, it is because, like most Australians, you have been taught to believe the lie that government can be “ secular“, which means separate from religion.  The truth is that there is no such thing as a “secular” nation, and there never can be.  Secular government is an academic fantasy because:

  • all nations must have laws;
  • all laws attempt to define right and wrong (morality); and
  • all morality is a matter of belief (i.e. religion).

All law is enacted morality.  A nation cannot be “secular“, because its laws must be based on someone’s beliefs about morality.  Perhaps the most fundamental and crucial question facing every nation is this.  On whose morality shall we base our laws?

Until recently, our judges based their common law decisions on Christ’s love-based morality – love your neighbour as you love yourself.  Freedom flourished because people loved their neighbour by respecting their freedom.  Prosperity followed because most people in the economy loved their neighbours by offering products that gave good value for money.  Nowadays, judges and politicians change the moral basis of our laws without our consent, and often without our knowledge.  They clearly don’t love us, and we are their neighbours!

These unloving “change agents” base our laws on beliefs that caused all the bloodshed of the French revolution and later Marxist dictatorships.  They are adherents of secular humanism, a trendy little non-theistic religious cult of the inner suburban latte-set.  The cult’s Manifesto says it is centred “solely on human interests and values”, with morality based on “the temporal well-being of man” with no need to refer to a god if there is one.

Perhaps you find it hard to believe that some judges, politicians, academics, and others would deliberately work against the widely held beliefs of our community.  Sadly, the clearest evidence is available.  Professor Manning Clark was quoted as saying of his friend the late Justice Lionel Murphy:

“it had been one of Murphy’s aims to dismantle the Judeo-Christian ethic of Australian society.”
(page 8, Sydney Morning Herald, 30 October 1986).

Murphy’s protege, Senator Gareth Evans, a former president of the Humanist Society and a key advocate of the infamous Bill of Rights, was himself once quoted as saying:

“children want a right to sexual freedom and education and protection from the influence of Christianity.”
(page 11, Sydney Morning Herald, 7 May 1976).

Some of the objectives of secular humanism are to establish:

  • a new world order (one world government)
  • a new economic system (to be run by international bankers)
  • a new race of people (by means of genetic engineering) and
  • a new world religion

All of these are prophesied to be realised under the control of the Antichrist. He is living but yet to be revealed. The UN announced a High-Level International Conference on the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine to be held at its headquarters from June 2 to 4, 2025, as the General Assembly emphasised that a two-state solution remains the “only path to lasting peace” in the Middle East. Watch for who is involved in this meeting and its outcome.

Humanism’s aim of one world government is clear from its Manifesto, which states:

“We deplore the division of humankind on nationalistic grounds.  We’ve reached a turning point in history where the best option is to transcend the limits of national sovereignty and to move toward the building of a world community in which all sectors of the human family can participate.  Thus we look toward the development of a system of world law and order based upon trans-national federal government.”

Their fervour for a new world religion has been expressed this way:

“The battle for mankind’s future must be waged and won in the public school classroom by teachers who correctly perceive their role as proselytisers of a new faith.  The classroom must and will become an arena of conflict between the old and the new; between the rotting corpse of Christianity on the one hand, and the new faith of humanism on the other.” (Humanist Magazine, January/February 1983)

They intend to legislate control of Christian churches.  The Humanist Manifesto states:

“Humanism maintains that all associations and institutions exist for the fulfilment of human life.  The intelligent evaluation, transformation, control and direction of all such associations and institutions with a view to enhancement of human life is the purpose and programme of humanism.  Certain religious institutions, their ritualistic forms, their ecclesiastical methods and communal activities must be reconstituted as rapidly as experience allows in order to function effectively in the modern world.”

These statements are a bold attack on the Christian foundations of our freedom.  It’s time for Australians to wake up.  We have been steadily losing freedoms since politicians began using the idea of secular government to gradually replace Christ’s love-based moral foundation for our laws.  As already shown, the claim that government is secular is a lie, because government can’t avoid basing laws on someone’s beliefs about right and wrong.  As the great 20th-century jurist Lord Denning wrote:

“Without religion, there can be no morality, without morality, there can be no law.”

Extracts from an article by Richard Eason entitled Australia’s Priceless Christian Heritage.

Fortunately, Christians who believe the Bible is God’s true history of this Cosmos know the end of the story. Fulfilled prophecies are proof that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. The 300-plus prophecies of Jesus’ first coming to earth were fulfilled to the letter, and the 2000 prophecies of Jesus’ second coming and His transitional Millennial Kingdom are playing out in our lifetime. They tell us that there will be a one-world government ruled by the Antichrist for three and a half years. Christians who are watching for the fulfilment of these prophecies can use them to evangelise and warn unbelievers of the consequences of taking the mark of the Beast.

UK – A SHIFTING FROM SHRINKING TO A GROWING CHURCH

Posted on by

Based on The Quiet Revival report by the UK Bible Society, Glen Scrivener reports that the church is growing across age and ethnic groups. Nominalism is shrinking, and church engagement is growing, which is encouraging. A shift from a secular myth to religious reality is real in the UK.

Monthly church attendance in England and Wales has increased by over 50 per cent in just six years, according to a newly released report by the Bible Society UK.

The Quiet Revival report, drawing on nationally representative YouGov surveys from 2018 and 2024, reveals that 12 per cent of adults in England and Wales now attend church at least once a month — up from 8 per cent in 2018.

While the percentage shift may seem modest, it represents a striking increase in real terms: from 3.7 million to 5.8 million regular churchgoers over just six years, or a 50 per cent increase.

Significantly, the fastest growth has taken place among 18 to 24-year-olds. In 2018, only 4 per cent in this age group reported monthly church attendance. That figure has now quadrupled to 16 per cent.

Young men have led the surge. One in five men aged 18 to 24 — or 21 per cent of their entire cohort across England and Wales — now report regular church attendance. The researchers suggested that this revival may be linked to a changing public tone around Christianity. While older generations may have associated faith with social pressure or institutionalism, young adults are encountering it as a source of hope, meaning, and belonging.

Christianity is now being seen — at least by some — as a viable response to loneliness, anxiety, and a society searching for purpose. “Having a Christian faith is again being normalised and is arguably even culturally attractive,” the report concludes.

The latest news from Britain correlates closely with similar findings in the United States. After decades of decline, Christianity’s retreat in America has stabilised, with a surprising resurgence among young conservative men, according to major Pew survey showing Christian identity holding steady since 2019.

Arguably, the most compelling insight from the report is that British Christianity is not only expanding in reach, but also deepening in conviction. Christian faith is increasingly being chosen rather than inherited, marking a shift from nominal Christianity to intentional belief and practice.

Among churchgoers, 67 per cent read the Bible weekly outside of church services — up from 54 per cent in 2018. Young Christians are particularly engaged, with high rates of Bible reading, prayer, and curiosity about Scripture.

“These are not passive believers,” the report notes. “They are committed, spiritually active, and often vocal about their faith.”

THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS

Posted on by

Pastor John Piper responds to a viral social media post by Jordan Peterson stating that life’s purpose is meaning rather than happiness. Piper insists believers glorify God by finding true joy in Him even amid suffering. I agree with Piper’s view.

‘In your presence [O God] there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore’ Psalm 16:11

In a Nov. 12, 2024, post on X that garnered 2.1 million views and 31,000 likes​, Peterson, a Canadian psychologist, wrote, “Life is suffering. The purpose of life is not to be happy, but to find something that sustains you in spite of suffering.”

In response to a reader who asked the pastor to share his thoughts on the topic, Piper, founder of Desiring God, acknowledged a core truth in Peterson’s message: chasing superficial, momentary pleasure is futile. 

Peterson is “right that for most people, happiness is experienced as fleeting, superficial, unpredictable, and impulsive” when pursued as an end in itself, Piper said in a recent episode of his “Ask Pastor John” podcast.

He also agreed that life should indeed be “profoundly meaningful” rather than spent in pursuit of empty pleasures. “I want people to have lives that are profoundly meaningful. So, amen, yes,” Piper noted.

However, the author of Don’t Waste Your Life diverges from Peterson on the role of happiness in life’s purpose. Piper stressed that the concept of happiness shouldn’t be discarded but redeemed. 

In contrast to Peterson’s approach of abandoning “happiness” as a life goal, Piper contended that true, deep happiness “rooted in God” is not only legitimate but essential​. 

The Minnesota-based pastor cautioned that even “meaning” can become an empty concept if divorced from God.

“I’ve been pursuing a different strategy than Jordan Peterson in the hope of rescuing people from the pursuit of fleeting, unpredictable, impulsive, superficial and (I would add) God-dishonoring, Christ-diminishing, Bible-ignoring, damning happiness,” he said. 

Drawing from biblical teaching, Piper laid out five key points to explain why joy in God stands at the heart of creation and the Christian life. First, Piper said God created the world to display His glory.​

“Creation is the overflow of God’s exuberance in being God,” he explained, meaning the universe exists to showcase God’s greatness, beauty and worth​.

“You might say that creation is the overflow of God’s exuberance in being God, in being great and beautiful and valuable, supremely so — so much so that He means to go public with His glory and communicate it,” he said.

Second, human beings are made in God’s image (Genesis 1:27) and designed to reflect that glory​, Piper said, adding: “That’s what images are for; they image forth what they are images of.”

Third, Piper addressed the reality of sin and suffering, emphasizing that no one lives out God’s purpose perfectly; in fact, humanity has turned away and become “enemies of God.”​

Fourth, Piper stressed that being “supremely happy” in God is crucial to honouring Him, a principle that lies at the heart of his perspective. The pastor defined the term in a 2015 piece as “God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.”

“Being supremely happy in God […] is essential to glorifying God and showing that He’s supremely valuable,” he said, “and this is true especially in our suffering.”

When believers continue to delight in God amid trials, it demonstrates that God is more precious than health, comfort or any earthly gain, he said. “If we can maintain a deep and unshaken happiness in God through suffering, we make Him look as precious as He really is,” Piper explained​.

Finally, Piper noted that if God is most glorified when His creation is satisfied in Him, then pursuing joy in God is not optional but commanded​.

“Happiness, joy, pleasure — they’re not optional for the Christian,” he said, pointing to the Bible’s many calls to rejoice. Scripture repeatedly instructs believers to “Delight yourself in the Lord” and “Rejoice in the Lord always.”

“Enjoying Him is not a by-product of something greater. It is the essence of human greatness. It is the essence of worship.”

John Piper should have included the most important aspect of living out the Christian life: Jesus made it possible for our Heavenly Father to send the third person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, to indwell our spirit so we can live a new life in Christ. He is our counsellor, teacher, comforter and helper. He produces the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, goodness, gentleness, kindness, and self-control. He also provides the nine gifts of the Spirit for ministry. (1 Corinthians 12:4-11). Our responsibility is to allow Him to direct our steps each day by saying, “not my will but your will be done” today.

HOW TO SPIRITUALLY BATTLE FOR YOUR KIDS

Posted on by

According to the CDC  (U.S. Centres for Disease Control and Prevention) and Barna Group, one in five high school students has considered suicide, and nearly one in 10 has attempted it. A staggering 40% report persistent sadness or hopelessness. Substance use, atheism and gender confusion are rising across Gen Z. And amid it all, 1.5 million minors run away from home each year in the U.S.

As the mental health crisis among teens reaches new heights with skyrocketing rates of depression, suicide ideation and a growing disconnection from faith, author Laine Lawson Craft is assuring parents they are not powerless — they are at war.

Her latest book,Warfare Parenting: A Daily Battle Plan to Fight for Your Child, released in March, is a devotional drawn straight from the trenches of Craft’s own experience: each of her three children, despite growing up in a Christian home, became prodigals, drifting into rebellion, darkness and substance abuse during their teenage years. 

But after more than a decade of prayer, pleading and proclaiming Scripture, Craft watched God transform not just their lives, but her own.

“We were doing everything we thought the Lord told us to do,” Craft told The Christian Post. “And yet, my three children were battling different wars with the enemy.”

The idea that the battle is not with the child, but with darkness itself, is at the crux of Warfare Parenting. According to Craft, the devotional is designed to provide not only daily doses of hope, but also practical and spiritual tools for those in the throes of parenting children who have wandered from the faith or are ensnared in destructive patterns.

“I realized I wasn’t battling my children. I was battling the enemy,” she said. “And that’s where warfare parenting comes in, because the enemy is tough. He’s out to seek, kill, and destroy our children’s destinies.”

But in contrast to fear or moral panic, Warfare Parenting offers parents a strategic path forward: Scripture, prayer, surrender and the belief that no prodigal is too far gone for God. Craft is no stranger to battles, spiritual or otherwise. Before becoming an author and host of the “Warfare Parenting” podcast, she ran a national magazine, WHOAwomen, which placed women of faith like Dolly Parton and Kathie Lee Gifford on covers beside mainstream titles like Oprah and Woman’s Day.

But even as she found success in publishing and ministry, her own home was unravelling. Her children were caught in the grip of partying, addiction and suicidal ideation. “One of my children was hearing voices that told her life would be better without her,” she shared. “Another was hooked on music festivals and drugs. Another just spiraled into partying. All three had different battles.”

What carried Craft through was not formulaic parenting advice but daily immersion in the Word of God. Over 10 years, she read the Bible cover to cover eight times. As she read, she began to jot down verses for fellow parents in pain, verses that later became the 365-day devotional now in print.

“This book started in the margins of my Bible and in my iPhone notes,” she said. “Each day, God gave me a scripture for a parent in the battle.”

One of her sons took 15 years to return home spiritually. During that time, she says she quite literally hit the floor in prayer, pleading the blood of Jesus over him every single day. “When God touched him, he was high. But the encounter was so profound, he was changed forever,” she said.

Craft lamented that in the Christian community, parenting a prodigal can come with a heavy load of shame. Scripture often cited, “train up a child in the way he should go … ” can feel like condemnation when a child veers off course, she said.

“People think if their child has strayed, it’s a reflection on them as a bad Christian parent,” Craft said. “But that’s not the truth. It’s a reflection of how ferocious the enemy is.” That shame, she stressed, is what keeps many parents silent, isolated and vulnerable.

“I think that’s why we have to be loud,” she said. “If we aren’t loud, the shame will build.” For Craft, breaking that silence means building communities. Inspired by the widespread recovery network Celebrate Recovery, she envisions Warfare Parenting small groups popping up in churches and homes across the country, where parents can come together to pray, swap “life hacks,” and intercede for one another’s children.

“We need a safe place with no shame,” she said. “A place where someone can say, ‘Can you help me stand in the gap?’”

Based on her own experiences, Craft wants every parent, grandparent and guardian to know that no child is too far gone for redemption. “If there’s one message I’d give, it’s ‘don’t give up,’” she said. “God can clean them up in a second. He loves them in the darkness and will come down and rescue and deliver them.”

IS AMERICA ON THE CUSP OF A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING?

Posted on by

David Closson, director of the Centre for Biblical Worldview at Family Research Council, thinks that the measurable rise in popularity of religious and Bible apps is a sign that America may be on the cusp of a spiritual awakening.

At the same time, America is deeply divided, yet there is no single conflict at the core of the discord. Instead, an ideological divide is widening at an alarming pace. We have seen “cancel culture,” which initially aimed to suppress opposing voices, evolve into an “assassination culture,” where some openly call for the violent elimination of adversaries. Perhaps this is the reason why young people are looking for something better: hope in a world consumed with hate.

“I’m encouraged by the growing popularity of faith-based apps like YouVersion and Hallow,” Closson told TWS. “As someone who works closely on cultivating a biblical worldview in the next generation, I see this as more than a digital trend — it could be a sign that something deeper is stirring. The political and cultural ‘vibe shift’ we’ve all sensed might actually point to a spiritual awakening. People are looking for clarity, truth, and hope in a confusing world, and many are turning — or returning — to faith as the foundation for that. I believe this hunger for meaning could very well be connected to a deeper worldview shift that could signal the beginning of revival in our nation.”

The surge in religious app popularity is coinciding with a marked rise in the sales of print Bibles, with sales up 22% as of last fall (compared to the same period the previous year), which is being partially attributed to a jump in first-time buyers.

Observers say the resurgence in faith can be partially attributed to — of all things — the ubiquity of phones and the increasing popularity of religious apps like Hallow. In a profile on the explosive growth of the Catholic app published Saturday on The Free Press, 39-year-old “Sarah,” a fallen away Catholic, says she had hit rock bottom after she embarked on an affair and found herself estranged from her husband and three children. Alone in a Chicago hotel room after binging on drugs and alcohol, she offered a desperate prayer to God for help. Days later, she happened upon an Instagram ad for Hallow featuring Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg, inviting people to pray the rosary. After downloading the app and listening to morning prayer routines, short sermons, a guided “examination of conscience,” and a multitude of other resources, she sensed a change beginning to happen in her.

Months later, Sarah had moved back in with her family and began therapy with her husband. Sarah is now a cantor at her church and regularly goes to confession. “She is convinced God used Hallow to save her soul, her marriage, her career — perhaps even her life.”

As of now, Hallow has been downloaded 23 million times since its creation in 2018. In February of last year on Ash Wednesday, Hallow became the first religious app to ever reach the number one spot in Apple’s App Store. The app once again reached number one on Ash Wednesday this year. Sarah told The Free Press that the reason for the app’s massive growth is because there are a multitude of people like her who are “starved for connection, for meaning” and “starved for God.”

Hallow is far from the only religious app to see unprecedented growth over the last year. Bible Chat, “an AI chatbot trained exclusively on the Bible,” has been downloaded seven million times since 2023 and was second only behind Google Translate in the Reference category. On January 5, the first Sunday of this year, almost 800,000 people installed the Bible app YouVersion, with 18.2 million people opening the app that same day.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out as persecution of Christians increases as we enter the tribulation and extreme tribulation of the last seven years before Jesus returns to restore righteousness.

THIS EASTER SHARE THE GOSPEL

Posted on by

HOW TO SHARE THE GOSPEL IN 15 SECONDS, 30 SECONDS AND 60 SECONDS

15 Seconds: “My Train is here!!” “God made everything perfect, but we broke His moral law—lied, stolen, blasphemed. The punishment is hell, but Jesus took our punishment on the cross, died and rose again. Turn from your sin and trust Him to be saved.”

30 Seconds: “My rides about to arrive to pick me up!” “God created a perfect world and gave us a conscience to know right from wrong. But we’ve all sinned—lied, stolen, used His name in vain. Sin separates us from God, and the just punishment is eternity in hell. Yet, God loved us so much He sent Jesus to live the perfect life we couldn’t, take our punishment on the cross, and rise from the dead. If you turn from sin and trust Him, God forgives you, gives you a new heart, and offers eternal life instead of hell.”

60 Seconds: “I have an appointment I have to leave in a minute!” “God created the world perfect, but we’ve all broken His moral law—lied, stolen, blasphemed, hated in our hearts. Sin is not a minor thing; it’s rebellion against a holy God, and His justice demands that sin be punished. The Bible says the punishment is eternity in hell, completely separated from God’s goodness. But in His love, God sent Jesus Christ, who lived perfectly and willingly took our punishment by dying on the cross. He rose again, proving His victory over sin and death. If you turn from your sin and trust in Jesus, you’ll receive forgiveness, escape hell, and gain eternal life with God.”

HARD QUESTION: “CAN YOU GIVE ME EVIDENCE FOR GOD?” YES! Imagine you’re walking down the street, and you see a fully assembled, functioning car parked on the side of the road. It’s sleek, well-designed, with intricate engineering — from the engine to the electronics, everything works together perfectly. Would you ever assume that car just appeared out of nowhere, assembled by time and chance? Of course not. You’d immediately know it had a manufacturer — someone who designed it, engineered it, and built it.

THE FRENCH CATHOLIC CHURCH TO BAPTISE OVER 10K ON EASTER, A 45% INCREASE FROM LAST YEAR

Posted on by

France’s Roman Catholic Church is scheduled to baptize more than 10,000 adults on Easter Sunday, the highest number of new members reported in over 20 years.

The Catholic Church in France recently reported that 10,384 adults will be baptized on Easter night, along with approximately 7,400 individuals aged 11 to 17.

This marks a 45% increase in adult catechumens compared to last year, and is the largest reported number since 2002, when the Catholic Church created the annual survey.

The restored Notre Dame Cathedral lit up at night. The restoration of the cathedral involved more than $888 million (€846 million) being donated by approximately 340,000 supporters from around 150 countries.

The report also noted an apparent rise in “the growing, and now majority, proportion of young people among all catechumens.”

“Among newly baptized adults, the 18-25-year-old group, made up of students and ‘young professionals,’ now represents 42% of catechumens, and has therefore surpassed the 26-40-year-old group,” stated the report, as rendered by Google translate.

“The number of adolescent catechumens has increased sharply again this year. We are seeing a 33% increase in the dioceses for which we have figures for the two consecutive years of 2024 and 2025.”

Last month, the French Catholic weekly Famille Chrétienne reported an apparent surge in attendance for Ash Wednesday services at the start of Lent, which is the liturgical calendar season before Easter.

“We shattered attendance records,” said Father Benoist de Sinety, parish priest of St. Eubert Church in Lille, in comments given to Famille Chrétienne.

“Across the three Masses we offered, we had larger congregations than ever before. Nearly a thousand faithful gathered at Saint-Maurice Church in the evening — many of them young people attending for the first time.”

France has had a long, complicated history with Catholicism. For centuries, it was a bulwark of the Church, providing large numbers of soldiers for the Crusades and constructing many notable churches.

However, beginning with the violent secularism of the French Revolution in 1789, the nation has also made the occasional effort to limit Catholic influence on politics and society.

Last December, the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris reopened after more than five years of closure due to a severe fire in April 2019 that destroyed much of the interior. Many public officials and world leaders attended the opening, with French President Emmanuel Macron championing efforts to have the national symbol rebuilt in five years.

“You have transformed ashes into art,” Macron told those present for a tour of the completed cathedral last November. “The blaze at Notre Dame was a national wound, and you have been its remedy through will, through work, through commitment.”

COURAGE AND CONSEQUENCES: A WHISTLEBLOWER’S HARROWING EXPERIENCE WITH BIDEN’S DEPARTMENT OF (IN)JUSTICE

Posted on by

Eithan Haim’s vindication after very nearly facing prison time on spurious charges was only reversed after Trump was elected President.

Thankfully, the sham legal prosecution against Eithan Haim is over for good. After Haim blew the whistle on Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) for secretly providing gender transition procedures to minors in violation of state law, the Biden administration Department of Justice (DOJ) set out to ruin Haim’s life and career. More than 18 months and $1 million in legal fees later, Haim is finally free and clear.

GOD ENSURED THAT THE TRUTH WON OUT. It only took four days into the Trump administration for the Biden administration’s phony case to get crumpled up and thrown in the wastebasket. On Friday afternoon, the DOJ and Haim’s attorneys (the Burke Law Group) jointly moved “for an order dismissing the Second Superseding Indictment and all open counts with prejudice.”

The sparse motion gave little to analyze, except what it did not say. “The joint motion to dismiss the indictment offers no details,” mused Eugene Volokh. “But presumably the Trump Administration had a different view on the matter than did the Biden Administration.”

That same afternoon, Judge David Hittner responded, “As the direct and only result of a joint motion of the parties, the United States Attorneys Office of the Southern District of Texas, and legal counsel for the Defendant, Eithan David Haim, the Second Superseding Indictment and all open counts in the above-listed criminal case are hereby DISMISSED with prejudice.”

Dismissing charges with prejudice “means that the plaintiff cannot refile the same claim again in that court,” explains the Legal Information Institute. “The reason that dismissal with prejudice prevents subsequent refiling is because this type of dismissal is considered an ‘adjudication on the merits.’”

In other words, at the request of Trump’s DOJ, the judge decided that the charges brought against Haim by Biden’s DOJ were bogus, and that they could never be brought again.

For 18 months, beginning on the day he graduated from surgical training, the threat of criminal prosecution and financial disaster has hung over his head like the sword of Damocles.

SOCIETIES BUILT ON THE PREMISE THAT LIFE IS AN ACCIDENT

Posted on by

Extreme cruelty, gross injustice, and disregard for the life of individuals characterise regimes that believe life is an accident.  Examples include Hitler’s National Socialism, Stalin’s Soviet Socialism, and their nauseatingly numerous socialist offspring.  Many socialists mistakenly believe that science can show that life evolved by accident.

Sadly, universities and schools teach our children that evolution is fact and that this cosmos came about by a Big Bang and random chance evolution. As a result, lavishly funded TV spectaculars portray the evolution of life as “scientific”, but it is not.  It cannot be subjected to the scientific method as its assumed processes are not observable.  Darwin insisted his theory could not explain the origin of life but claimed it did explain the lesser problem of how species could have become increasingly complex.  Since Darwin’s time, however, the expected mass of transitions to more and more complex species has been absent from the fossil record.  More importantly, Dr Michael Behe recently discovered organelles driving the flagellum of a bacterium that meet Darwin’s own criteria for falsifying his theory.  Mainstream media has hardly mentioned this, and the educational establishment has ignored it because they will not consider the supernatural. Regardless of the evidence, if it is not natural/materialistic, it is not science.

Fake news also disparages those who accept the scientific evidence for intelligent design of life.  Yet they include science luminary Sir Fred Hoyle and Dr Paul Davies who discovered the fine tuning of the universe, renowned microbiologist Dr Dean Kenyon who renounced his celebrated evolutionary work “Biochemical Predestination” to accept intelligent design, Dr Michael Behe who wrote the landmark work “Darwin’s Black Box”, notorious Oxford Professor Anthony Flew who renounced atheism in his book “There is a God”, the brilliant Oxford mathematician Professor John Lennox, mathematician Dr William Dembski who authored “The Design Inference”, and information scientists Dr Lee Spetner and Dr Michael Hasofar who were the first to publish quantified evidence against evolution of species in the world’s leading peer-reviewed “Journal of Theoretical Biology”.

Evolution has been our enemy, Satan’s best strategy, but he realises that its time is over, and he already has his final strategy in place: Aliens. Richard Dawkins, one of the atheists’ most celebrated authors, when argued into a corner on intelligent design, blurted out, “Well, if it’s intelligent design, it must have come from outer space.” Demons are already representing themselves to gullible people as aliens, as good guys, come to save us. These stories are coming to us from people who have experience with UFOs. According to an ABC News poll conducted in 2000, “nearly half of all Americans and millions more globally believe we’re not alone […] 40 million Americans say they have seen or know someone who has seen an unidentified flying object, or UFO,

Look at the many movies and games that feature aliens. Young people are being set up to embrace demons when they manifest as good aliens.

In Gary Bates’s book on Aliens, he provides evidence that these creatures posing as aliens are, in fact, demons. Whenever a person commanded them to go in the name of Jesus, they immediately departed.

Are you ready for all that will proceed Jesus’s return to restore righteousness? The bible gives us a lot of information on the last seven years before Jesus returns to defeat the Antichrist at the battle of Armageddon. If you are new to this blog, then you can go back over previous posts to find out where we are at in terms of Biblical end times prophecy.

‘Assassination Culture’: Half of Left-leaning Americans say assassinating Trump, Musk is justified

The Network Contagion Research Institute and Rutgers University’s Social Perception Lab released a report Monday titled “Assassination Culture: How Burning Teslas and Killing Billionaires Became a Meme Aesthetic for Political Violence.” The data included in the report is based on responses collected from 1,264 U.S. adults. The main takeaway from the report is that, “A broader ‘assassination culture’ appears to be emerging within segments of the U.S. public on the extreme left.”

“This report points to disturbingly high levels of support for political violence, particularly targeting President Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Across survey responses, nearly one-third of respondents — and a significantly higher share of left-leaning respondents — expressed some degree of justification for acts of lethal violence,” the report stated. 

“Unless political and cultural leadership explicitly confronts and condemns this trend, [a] growing probability of real-world escalation” exists, the report added. “Given the current economic volatility and institutional distrust, the online normalization of political violence may increasingly translate into offline action.” 

“Taken together, the findings underscore the erosion of democratic norms and the growing acceptability of political violence in American discourse, particularly among ideologically extreme communities online,” the report warned. “Continued monitoring and broader measurement efforts are urgently needed.” 

Fortunately for Christians, God has revealed how this story plays out, and we know it is both good news and bad news. The good news is that Jesus’s return is imminent, but the bad news is that God allows Satan to refine His church and to do his utmost to deceive the world. The following Scripture is Jesus’s response to the disciples’ question about what it will be like in the end times before He returns to restore righteousness.

“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 24:9-13

We cannot say that Jesus did not warn us. It is time to draw close to God to ensure we do what He has called and prepared us to do.
