On June 8, 1966 the most destructive tornado in the history of America (up until that point) struck Topeka, Kansas. [Details here.] I wasn’t alive then, and I didn’t grow up in Topeka. I grew up on a farm in a county south of Topeka. When I actually moved to Topeka in my adult years, I began hearing stories about the deadly tornado that ripped a 22-mile path, including through the center of Topeka destroying much of the college known as Washburn University.

As stories go among the locals, I began to hear about a pastor who prophesied the coming tornado before it happened. He is well known in Topeka, and in fact many places for his faithful work unto God and in serving across the world. I was intrigued, but I only knew of the man. We did not run in the same circles.

A couple weeks ago I was thinking about that story and I told God that if I were to see Max Manning (the pastor who prophesied the destruction), I was going to ask him my question. (Max would be 95 years old at this point today.) Less than two days later Bill and I were at a diner we don’t frequent, and I turned the corner and there was Max Manning, sitting alone. I introduced myself and asked him if I could ask him about the 1966 event.

Max told me he was preaching Sunday, May 29 to his congregation. He said as he was giving his message, the Spirit fell upon him and in the midst of the message he said, “Thus says the Lord, in ten days destruction will hit your city.” He said it startled him greatly as he had never had such a thing happen to him before. Max said he stopped abruptly, lowered his head and prayed, saying to God, “what is this, God? I didn’t say this, where is this coming from?” He then raised his head to continue his sermon and the same words came out of his mouth, startling him. “Thus says the Lord, in ten days destruction will hit your city.” Twice the warning was issued.

Max told me that he and his wife left town on the ninth day to visit some people in the southern part of the state. The next day when they turned the radio on, they heard of the F5 half-mile wide tornado in Topeka. Up until that point he did not know how the “destruction” would manifest.

I was then able to ask him my question, “Did God tell you why?” He seemed intrigued by my question. I reworded, “Did God ever tell you why the destruction was coming to Topeka?” In my mind, destruction of such a nature can be a judgment for a breach or sin. Local rumors said Topeka was cursed for building houses on an old Indian burial site (Burnett’s mound). Others said it was representative for Washburn University adopting the “Ichabod” mascot. (Ichabod means “the glory of God has departed” and incidentally though, Topeka, Kansas is also the home of the Stone Street Revival that led to the Azusa Street Revival.) I hadn’t heard from the Lord if there was truth in either of those rumors, but I did wonder if the man who gave the city a ten day warning was also told the reason of the destruction.

Max smiled at me and shook his head. “No,” he said, “He never told me why.” “Do you know now?” I asked him. He smiled and shook his head and said, “No, I still don’t know why.”

Seventeen people died in the path of that tornado in Topeka, and another 550 were injured, not to mention the costliest damages to date in its history. The tornado took 26 minutes to pass through the city. I wonder what the numbers would have been if the whole city had heeded the warning?

The Coming Solar Eclipse

On April 8, a solar eclipse will make its way across America six years, six months, six weeks and six days from the date of the last solar eclipse that swathed a path across America. The place the eclipses’ paths intersect is called “Little Egypt” in southern Illinois.

Two of the seven “Nineveh” American cities are in the direct path of the eclipse, while the other five are clustered around it. The 2017 solar eclipse passed through seven American cities called “Salem” (a derivative of Jerusalem).

The anomalies are worth paying attention to. Of course the obvious question of — is God warning America to repent? — is at the foremost of a lot of minds. I think the obvious answer is yes, but I also think that cry for repentance has been heralded for a few decades now. Is this the undeniable last warning and call?

The intersection of the two eclipses being at Little Egypt says a lot by itself. Egypt, of course, is representative of idolatry – of which America has become a land full of. More telling than that is the particular “gods” mainstream America has adopted.

Mainstream America is woefully ignorant of the systems the powers that be have put into place that revolve a great deal around their worship systems. Just in the last week they applauded themselves and awarded little trophies mimicking the Egyptian creator God “sokar” another name for Ptah, and which they named a clever anagram of in Oscar…

It’s a common belief that the signs in the heavens (skies) are orchestrated by God to speak directly to those paying attention in a manner man cannot create or manipulate. History is replete with sun and moon and star signs, the most obvious being the star marking Christ’s entry. If anything, it would behoove the children of God to consider and pray about what God may (or may not) be saying.

We haven’t even touched on all the other precipices we’re dangling from…

Eye witness accounts of invading mercenaries through our defenseless border describe terrorists on the FBI terrorist lists, murderers, rapists, traffickers, Chinese secret police, Middle Eastern terrorists who had the boldness to tell the video journalist, “You don’t know who I am? You will.”… and the one that makes my blood boil, people they say who have been sent by the U.N. These people have been given money and addresses to head to. Countless have been videoed coming across with full military style weaponry and body armor. This aren’t the huddled, tired masses. This is an invasion of mercenaries with marching orders waiting for the “go” signal.

The economy is long overdue for collapse. Inflation is stealing from the middle class at alarming rates. People have never been more in debt in America, and America itself has never been more in debt. Real estate is not affordable for the average family anymore, and exorbitant taxes are sucking Americans dry. It’s cheaper for our family to eat at a restaurant than a fast food restaurant in our city.

Since the covid vaccine (mRNA gene therapy), heart disease, strokes, cancers and miscarriages have escalated at alarming rates. The American working force is being whittled down from increasing disabilities. And overall deaths are increasing disproportionately, especially in the young.

Threats of new viruses (Virus “X”) are talked about like it’s a foregone conclusion. Almost all of our food is genetically modified, laden with chemicals and artificial ingredients, and/or outsourced out of the country. Eating healthy is a full time job just figuring out.

Violent crime is escalating. The law abiding citizen is shunned justice and the criminals are let free.

Oh there are plenty of threats in and to America.

Solutions exist…

We’re not at a loss for solutions, it’s just that the System won’t allow them. The powers that be need us broken to accomplish their objectives.

I travel a lot, and there is not a city I have been in (large or small) that doesn’t have ample abandoned homes and buildings. Some of those empty buildings are absolutely beautiful. With all the money the government (federal, state, local) waste on nonsense, they could just as easily put it toward helping restore abandoned homes. Malls are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Imagine converting them into housing complexes with small businesses interspersed that produce and provide a variety of needs locally sourced.

Imagine if the cities created incentives to rebuild broken neighborhoods and establish community food sources. There are fantastic underground greenhouses that enable even the coldest climates to produce tropical fruits and a variety of vegetation. There’s a fantastic book called Holy Shit that expounds on the issues of animal waste and vegetation fertilizer. We have everything we need for everything we need right in front of our faces. They’ve just industrialized our society and put our dependence on corporations instead of local sources. It’s always about money and control.

Every neighborhood in America could provide for the needs of their neighborhood. It’s not unimaginable. The local high schools, community colleges and tech schools could make affordable services for the community in exchange for much needed internships and experience.

Energy sourcing is another thing they lie about and keep us in the dark about. Every alternative energy source from harvesting energy from the ionosphere to water powered cars has been buried and the inventors paid off or killed. Look into “earthship” homes to see practically self-sustaining homes that don’t even need public utilities.

Oh there are solutions.

We don’t have a lack of space, a lack of opportunity, a lack of housing. We have deliberate dependence on a broken system and an intentional repression of ideas that actually work.

Corey’s Digs does a fantastic series called The Solution Series that covers just about everything you could think of for freeing oneself from the tentacles of corporate and bureaucratic America. Check it out (yes there’s a small fee, but the sheer volume of information is worth it).

So about those storms….

Yeah, we have some hard things in America right now, and the crystal ball looks like even harder things are coming. But we are not powerless. They want us to think we are and they have an arsenal of schemes to make it appear so. But we should never agree with the enemy. Our job is to stand on what we know to be right and true, and only agree with God.

It’s like the 1966 tornado. Was that sent by God for a particular purpose or judgment, or was it orchestrated from some arena of darkness? Either way God warned the city. And that’s what He wanted me to know as I was pondering the coming season of storms to hit America. Some of the storms will be storms of judgment from Him, and some will be the chaos orchestrated from the dark players attempting to destroy America and its people. Either way the Lord is faithful to warn His people, just like He sent Jonah to Nineveh. We just have to be faithful to listen and respond as He shows us. The Wise Men followed the star to Bethlehem (they were Spirit led), but were warned in a dream to travel home a different route (because the enemy countered).

Some storms we aren’t going to be able to be spared from. There are some hard, hard things coming to America. It will likely be a mixture. Some hard things may be released for judgment for the unrighteousness in the land, while some other hard things may be the works of the enemy for our destruction. Like the 1966 tornado, we may not know if the storm beating down on us at the time is sent from God or the enemy. But ultimately the storm is either sent or allowed by God, and He is our only shelter. We must be prepared to seek Him and heed His warnings. We have to know if our response is repentance (judgment storm) where we put ourselves at the mercy of God, or faith (enemy-facilitated storm) where we take our stand against the works of the enemy. If He warns us of coming destruction, our next response should be, “What do you want me to do?”

Daniel 11:32, my friends…. “the people who know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.” Another translation puts it this way, “the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action.”

If we posture ourselves correctly, the outcome is on the side of righteousness.

The Solution’s Foundation Must be Laid Before We Address the Problems

I was a pretty damaged person in my early adulthood, (from some painful childhood experiences). As I became an adult, the damage I carried prevented me from wholeness and health. I knew it; I could feel it, but I couldn’t seem to get out of it. I didn’t know how. Damaged people damage people, and I knew that my reactions were damaging to those around me. I needed free, and it would take me many, many years to get there.

Along the course of seeking healing and wholeness, I had to learn (and unlearn) a lot of things. Primarily I sought God, because He was truly the only one I trusted, and I was certain He held every solution to every problem I had. I just rarely had the understanding I needed. So I took it one slow step at a time because it’s all I could handle at that point.

Once I had a direction to go, the Spirit led me to a book by Derek Prince called The Atonement, and God very plainly told me to start with that. (I had several other options at that time and God made plain I was not to move in any other direction until I had read it, contrary to what I actually wanted to do at that point.) Later I read the much more detailed book The Blood of Christ by Andrew Murray.

In a place of chaos, the way out is difficult to find. There are too many (chaotic) things flying around that make it difficult to discern up from down, left from right, in from out. You must have something solid to ground you, to give you a footing and help you gain a vision for how to move strategically forward out of the chaos.

This is why God started my healing and deliverance process with the foundation of the atonement of Christ. As I began to move through the chaotic traumas in my heart and mind, I could plant my feet on the foundation of the atonement to navigate the flying memories, emotions, and baggage that constantly accosted me, threw me off balance, and threatened to drag me into dangerously swirling emotions and pain. I began to learn to take everything back to the foundation of Christ, who He is, what He had accomplished, to gain my bearings on how to move in the midst of all that pain and chaos. Eventually I was able to make my way through it all and end the presence of chaos in my life.

This is how I know to help Christians find their way in today’s chaos. We’re inundated with evil all around us and a host of threats of which even just one could destroy us, not to mention the hundreds coming at us. Our food, water and air are polluted and poisonous. Our media and public mouthpieces are lying to us, manipulating us. Our government has betrayed us. There are physical threats, mental threats, and emotional threats on about a thousand fronts right now. Many of us have some sort of real trauma operating in our lives presently. All of this and much more swirls around us constantly.

If we try to move forward as victims, we will be defeated. If we try to find our way out by raging at the darkness, it will consume us. If we ignore it, we will become prey to it. There is but one way to navigate the chaos of the world in 2024 and come through victorious. There is only one way.

The Supremacy of Christ.

The Great Reversal

The sons of God “…did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode”. Jude 6 calls them angels. The Hebrew refers to them as sons of God, but the Greek as angels from the Greek word aggelos meaning “a messenger”, taken from the Greek ago which is a verb that means “to lead”.

If we discount that these created beings of the heavenly realm were referenced as “sons of God”, we’re going to miss some important details. Enoch tells us a more detailed history of Genesis 6, and Enoch 6:1 says it like this:

“And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were born unto them beautiful and comely daughters. And the angels, the children of heaven, saw and lusted after them…”

Genesis 6:1 says it like this:

“Now it came about, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose.”

Those read startlingly similar. Enoch calls them “children of heaven” and Genesis calls them “sons of God”.

If I could summarize… created beings of heaven called “sons of God” and “children of heaven”, left their appropriate domain and abandoned their proper abode [in heaven] to interfere with the created realm of earth. Not only did they procreate (heavenly beings with earthly beings), but they began to teach these earthly beings all kinds of wickedness. In fact, Enoch tells that one of the watchers named Azazel was ascribed all the sin of the earth for the wickedness he taught. (10:8)

There’s a lot I’m not getting into (which is why I encourage reading Enoch), but the essence of these sons of God leading man into wickedness and then turning on man and destroying them (Enoch 7), and that these sons of God produced offspring with the daughters of men is what I want to focus on.

These sons of God who corrupted themselves and humanity, and produced offspring to further the corruption, continued to lead humanity astray by establishing religions to their names. They are the Babylonian gods of old, who were renamed by region to be Egyptian gods, Mesopotamian gods, Roman gods, Greek gods, and the list goes on and on and on.

Matthew meticulously records the fourteen generations from Abraham to David, the fourteen generations from David to the Babylonian deportation (diaspora), and the fourteen from the Babylonian deportation to Christ. Then Matthew tells us that at this last fourteenth generation, the Messiah would be born of a woman and the Spirit of God and we know He would be known as the SON OF GOD.

Only unlike these other sons of God who cohabited with women and brought wickedness to the earth, this Son of God through the union of flesh and spirit would bring righteousness.

Unlike the sons of God who brought death and destruction to the earth, this Son of God would bring life and abundance.

Unlike the sons of God who taught violence, revenge, and selfish ambition, this Son of God would teach love and peace, forgiveness and reconciliation, and personal sacrifice for the good of others.

Unlike the sons of God who demanded blood sacrifices from humans to appease their wicked appetites, this Son of God would become the blood sacrifice to atone for the wickedness of humans.

Unlike the sons of God who had priests of sexual depravity and altars of death and destruction, this Son of God would be the final sacrifice, eliminating the lust for flesh-filled altars, and become the High Priest to God, doing away with earthly priests.

Unlike the sons of God who alienated us from God, the Son of God reconciled humanity back to God.

Unlike the sons of God who made humanity slaves to sin, the Son of God delivered us from the curse of sin.

Then the Son of God gave those who would believe on Him the power to become sons of God.

The sons of God left their heavenly abode for an earthly existence and have been condemned to judgment. How ironic that through the Son of God we who are earthly can attain a heavenly existence.

Everything about Jesus addresses everything that has stymied and sabotaged man. It’s important we understand this before we move forward to some very real, very complex, and very dangerous threats to humanity. There is no problem facing humanity today that is not resolved in the person of Christ. Absolutely all and every one of our needs are met in Him.

We are in a place of chaos (by design). The ancient gods have regrouped and found a lethargic, compromised society that is easily ensnared. The weaknesses of humanity have taken care of the rest. If we’re going to be victorious in this fight, we have to be solidly planted on a foundation that won’t shift as the chaos blows around us. In some ways we’ll learn as we go, but in all ways we have to be planted firmly on the Rock.

The gods the powers-that-be are worshiping today demand the same things they did then: homage, adulation, loyalty, obedience, and yes, blood sacrifice. In exchange, they gift their adherents with resources, power, and things that stoke the flesh, like fame and notoriety, and substances that feed lusts (sex, drugs, indulgences, etc).

I’m learning to look behind the circumstance before me to see what’s operating. It’s the most liberating thing in the world to declare, “That’s not my god.” Half-time show of rituals and feeding the flesh? That’s not my god. (I won’t participate.) Latest promoted fear (whether it be war, disease, economic, etc.)? That’s not my god. (I won’t participate.) Awards ceremonies for entertainers? That’s not my god. (I won’t participate.) Technology must-haves? That’s not my god. (I won’t participate.)

When you know who your God is, the counterfeit is easier to spot. You reject the counterfeit. You don’t use it. You don’t participate in its actions and schemes. There’s a place where Christ shows us to be shrewd with the things of this world in order to advance the Kingdom of God, and we have to learn how to do that without compromising our faith and convictions and without sullying the Name of Christ. The parable of the shrewd manager is an excellent example of this.

We are now the authentic sons and daughters of God. We have the authority given us by Christ. The unrighteous sons of God have been defeated. The only power they have now is the power someone gives them. Don’t give it to them.

A few articles back I encouraged you to listen to a Jamie Winship presentation at a conference. There were two prominent takeaways: hearing the voice of God and walking in your identity. Both of those things are key for how we move in the chaos around us. Jamie was in war zones for decades, but was himself at peace. He raised a family in hostile environments, and his family was safe. When you know your identity, the circumstances around you are not your prison. When you can hear the voice of God, you can navigate around the obstacles and landmines of the battle scene you’re in.

If you didn’t get a chance to listen, here it is. If you glean value in it, it has three more parts.

We must set our foundation solidly on Christ in order to be victorious in the chaotic days ahead. Knowing who He is, and how He has defeated the enemies of God and man is critical for laying that foundation. It gives us the position we both stand and rest in.

What kind of gods are they?

In my zeal to present the gods gone astray that Psalm 82 calls the Divine Council or the congregation of the mighty, I mis-characterized them by saying they co-reigned with God, Supreme God. Let me correct my mistake and clarify: these gods of Psalm 82, these sons of God of Genesis 6 and Job, are created beings, unlike the Supreme God, who is uncreated, who has always been.

Whether these other beings should be called gods or something else is debatable. The scripture calls them gods — Elhohyim — so it’s not errant, but our connotations inferred may be. They are spiritual beings of a higher order, possibly (probably) the highest order under God Himself. I think the four archangels listed in Enoch are probably a step above them…. Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, and Uriel….

They did not/do not co-reign with God in that they share God’s power. They are created beings given much power to serve God, like the seraphim, cherubim, angels, and whatever other heavenly created beings God has created. Just like satan, they were created for a function and they abused their powers and subverted their original purpose for selfish ambitions. Their task, it appears, was some sort of service to God in the affairs of the created world on earth.

I am genuinely sorry if I confused or misrepresented anything by poor word choice or description. I never intend or want to misrepresent anything of God (or anything at all).

Some may prefer to call them angels, and that may be a better descriptor for connotation. But the actual words Scripture uses is “sons of God” and “gods” (Hebrew eloyhim), which is why I use that term, but I know it causes a bit of confusion when we’ve been taught there are no other gods but God. That is in fact true when you’re talking about the uncreated Being who is omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent. There is only One. But the Bible and other works do call these lesser (yet quite powerful) other beings gods as well.

Both Daniel and Enoch call these beings “Watchers”, which is ’iyr in the Aramaic that literally means watcher, but the translators have implied as angels or guardians. It comes from the root word ‘uwr meaning “through the idea of opening the eyes”, from the root “to be bare”. Best hypothesis is these are created beings with the task of watching creation. They’re listed three times in Daniel in chapter four and each time they are coupled with the “holy ones” (which is also an Aramaic word) which loosely translates one made sacred. Each time in Daniel they’re used is to issue a decree.

According to Enoch (and corroborated in Genesis 6), it would seem that there were two hundred of these beings who left their abode in heaven, perhaps they were just doing their task they were created for (watching, reporting?), but at the leadership of Semjaza rebelled against their heavenly assignments and copulated with human women. Enoch 6:6 tells us, “And they were in all two hundred who descended in the days of Jared on the summit of Mount Hermon, and they called it Mount Hermon because they had sworn and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it.” Interestingly, “Hermon” comes from an ancient Hebrew word “charam” which means “to seclude, specifically by a ban, to devote to religious uses especially destruction”. Like Heiser said, Mount Hermon is ground zero for the rebellious gods/watchers/angels.

I realize I’ve ruffled some feathers addressing and expounding on other “gods”, but I’m going to repeat something I explained in an earlier article. In the Ten Commandments, the first one is “you shall have no other gods before me.” There’s no reason for God to command this if it’s not an issue. The very next commandment is not to make idols. If idols (graven images) were the sole concern, is the first commandment necessary? And why wouldn’t God have said, “you shall have no idols before me”? He didn’t. He said gods.

There were lesser gods being worshiped and God was setting aside a nation as an example to the world of a people who worshiped only the supreme God. He goes on into verse five to say He is a “jealous” God. It literally means jealous and roots back to the primitive root qana’ meaning “to be zealous, (that is in a bad sense) jealous or envious”.

I don’t have time to keep breaking this down for people who think it’s heresy. It’s solid exegesis. A serious Biblical word study of the times eloyhim is used and its context, a serious word study of the “sons of God” and its context, should help people (who aren’t insistent that the western church’s teaching is without error) understand better. I’m really just laying this out for those with ears to hear and a heart to seek God for understanding. I realize it will sound like heresy to those entrenched in western church christianity.

If it is or if it isn’t gods, there’s still this other thing….

There is a group of people that think they are gods and they serve them. So our belief, understanding, traditions don’t matter in the context of what this other people group is doing. THEY worship other “gods”, whether you think they exist or not. They have ordered their lives around serving these other “gods”. (Just like Abraham’s dad and uncle did, just like the Israelites did when they forsook God for the gods of other nations.)

Jonathan Cahn (in his book Return of the Gods) laid it out like this… Before Christ the majority of the world was serving and worshiping other gods. They made temples to them, they made sacrifices to them, they held festivals and parades to them, their calendars were set by them. You couldn’t walk through the major cities of the world without running into homage of some sort to the gods of that region. You might have heard of them as Zeus, Osiris, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Athena, Baal, and the list goes on and on by different regions and different languages.

After Christ, the disciples and the ever increasing Christians evangelized the “modern” world and were severely persecuted and even killed for their message of the one true God and His son. Yet little by little, the worship of the other gods gave way to Christianity and the foreign gods’ temples now lie in ruins all over the world, most are famous tourist spots.

As Cahn says, if you sweep the temple clean of unclean spirits but don’t fill it with the Holy Spirit, the unclean spirit eventually comes back and brings seven more with it and the state of the temple is worse than it was before it was swept clean. A world that converted (in large portion) to Christianity eventually apostatized and the (allegorical) temple was emptied. So the other gods have moved back in all over the world in places we’d now call post-Christian. Read Cahn’s book. It will help you understand so much.

The old gods are now modern and trendy

What used to be underground and backroom worships and rituals to other gods has now gone mainstream. What they used to do in the dark they now do in broad daylight. Sometimes they’re bold enough to put their god’s name or one of the many images of their gods right out there. Just a brief sampling:

• Starbucks uses the Ishtar image on their cups… they say it’s a siren
• Venus razors by Gilette…. goddess of love
• Maseratti uses the Poseidon (Neptune) trident … god of the sea
• NBC uses the peacock … Hera goddess of women, symbol of pride
• CBS uses the all-seeing eye … Horus or Ra
• Nike is named after the Greek goddess of victory
• the iconic Statue of Liberty is actually a replica of the Babylonian goddess of fertility, Ishtar
• Paramount’s logo is a towering mountain with 22 stars encircling its top which is strangely parallel to Mount Hermon, (the mount the ancient gods left their abode in Heaven to fornicate on earth). The 22 stars are strangely parallel to the 22 named gods or beings that led the 200 in the rebellion of their original corruption of earth.
• And of course Apple, with a bite out of it, lauds the forbidden fruit as the key to knowledge. [Their first computer debuted for sale at $666.66.]

I’m not arguing that each of these (and the multitude that I didn’t list) are idol worshipers. Obviously some companies use mythology figures for market purposes. But it is telling that the market is saturated with emulations of foreign gods and idols. In fact, there’s not an industry in the public sphere that isn’t represented in some way, shape or form by foreign gods and idols.

The entertainment industry is ripe with god worship. In fact, watching a music video these days is like having a front seat to an occult ritual. Pretty much anything by Beyonce, Lady Gaga, JayZ, Marilyn Manson, Katy Perry, Madonna, Taylor Swift, and the list goes on and on….is witnessing some form of homage to their god(s) and/or some ritual.

Speaking of the entertainment industry, the NFL is classified as “sports entertainment”, (which releases them from liability for fixing games, among other things). For years now they have employed some of the biggest names in idol worship (idols to us, gods to them) for the half-time shows. Has anyone forgotten the half-time show where Madonna came in as Ishtar to perform her ritual under the watchful eye of Ra (Horus)? It has been a steady stream of idol rituals thanks to the prolific platform the NFL has.

NASA (the Hebrew word for “to deceive”) uses a forked tongue emblem, and names their rockets after a slew of gods, just look. (Atlas, Jupiter, Thor, Titan, Athena, Minotaur, Apollo, Nike, etc.) I wonder what NASA could be being used to deceive humanity about?

The days of the week, the months of the year – almost all are named after gods. Many holidays are rooted in ancient god worship celebrations.

Here’s an interesting one, “X” is supposedly symbolic for “Osiris risen”. Celebrities crossing their arms in an X is supposedly giving homage to the resurrection of Osiris, the Egyptian god of death and resurrection. There have been a rash of other X logos lately, notably: Elon Musk renamed Twitter “X”; Madonna has an alter ego named “Madame X”; the spacecraft manufacture in CA is called “SpaceX”; the Marvel comic superheroes are “X-Men”, etc.

Altiyan Childs, 2010 X-factor winner from Australia, had a near death experience where he attributes his life being saved by God. He did an about face after that and reevaluated his life, becoming very dedicated to God. In 2021 he released a five hour video where he went into great detail on the various forms of idolatry and cult worship in the entertainment industry. His video gives great detail to the symbols they use and their meanings. Video here.

Depending on the source, the ancient Roman God Saturn (where we get Saturday, aka Saturn’s Day) is either the god of time (Kronos or Father Time), Lord of the Rings, the originator of the cult of EL…. Or is symbolic of satan himself. Interestingly you’ll find the Saturn logo on a number of corporate logos of a circle with a ring, or the rings of Saturn, such as these….

Epstein Island has a temple modeled after the Mamluk Bathhouse in Aleppo, Syria. The name Mamluk means “slave soldiers”, and they were known for kidnapping young boys to force them to become warriors, and kidnapping young girls to force them into sex slavery. The blue and white stripes are said to be a nod to ancient Greece, where sex between adults and minors was commonplace. Interestingly, the set for Ellen Degeneres’s talk show had a similar background.

The point is….

I could go on and on about the various god/idol symbolism imagery that permeates our culture. I have files and files of images and history. But the point is, the people entrenched in service and worship of their gods (little g) pay homage to their gods in their various venues. Just like a Christian displays a fish, a cross, three crosses, various aspects of God in their lives both personal and public (think personalized license plates, bumper stickers, t-shirts, business logos, sports teams, scripture references, names of the real God, etc.), so do the adherents to foreign gods display their loyalty and adoration for their gods.

There was a time, perhaps, that brazen demonstrations of idolatry would be frowned upon in American society. But as American culture has become more and more debased, rejecting adherence to Christian morals and trading them for hedonistic displays and lifestyles, those who participate and have allegiance to the lesser gods have become emboldened to no longer hide their affections and loyalties. The scales have tipped and the idolatrous feel the weight of their power and are moving forward with their objectives.

It’s a brave new world where conservative morals are ridiculed and being outlawed while outright depravity, perversions and licentiousness are lauded and on open display. It’s a demonstration of allegiance to the gods one serves, or the God one serves.

If there was a time such loyalties hid in the shadows, that time is either over or quickly fading. The battle of the gods has commenced and loyalties will be the dividing lines in the coming days. If ever a true believer in the true God needed to evaluate their loyalties and the things they give affection to, I would think that time would be upon us. As the battle heightens, compromising affections with lesser gods will prove devastating to Christians.

Our nation and indeed our world are being led by Godless adherents to foreign gods intent on doing the bidding of their gods, and that is a dark and destructive place. We are and will further be deemed the enemy because our allegiance is to the true and supreme God. God is able to protect us, but we cannot afford to be found with one foot in allegiance to God and the other in the cesspools of idolatry.

As I alluded to earlier, the end outcome is guaranteed victory for the supreme God and His children, but the battle leading up to that end will be treacherous for us all. The gods do not fight fair and human suffering is nothing to such gods. In fact, they prefer humans to suffer. Fortunately, we have a God who does care and protects those found abiding in Him and has provided the way for us through Christ.

Today we’ll touch on the cosmic battle, the six moves before checkmate, and personal application. I’ll introduce a couple concepts here and start to fill them in with more detail in the coming weeks. As is always the case, don’t believe me carte blanche. Use my thoughts as a springboard for your own study. There’s a good chance I’m missing some details and maybe some of you can share more insight so we can all get a fuller picture.

The Cosmic Battle

A great place to start to wrap your head around this is to read The Unseen Realm by Dr. Michael Heiser. You can read his book, listen to his lectures on YouTube, and/or his podcasts on The Naked Bible. I’m going to summarize the teaching, but to understand the proof of the essence, you’ll want to study Heiser’s work. He has the receipts of proof.

The essence of Dr. Heiser’s teaching is the (mostly) untaught concept that God created gods in what Psalm 82 calls the Divine Council. The Divine Council is commonly referred to as the “sons of God” in Scripture. There are two references in Genesis 6 (vs. 2 and 4) and three in Job (1:6, 2:1, 38:7). If you want an overview before you get the book (or in lieu of the book), Dr. Heiser has a 23-page overview here.

Some of those sons of God rebelled against God by interfering in human affairs after Creation. That rebellion is casually referenced in Genesis 6, probably because it’s assumed the original readers/listeners of the Genesis account would also be readers and students of Enoch, [who covers that rebellion in great detail]. That rebellion is what led to the great Flood (or Deluge) of Noah’s day.

These “sons of God” are divine beings, not human, and endeavor to corrupt humanity for their own purposes of control that cause the premise of the cosmic battle. Understanding this foundation is absolutely critical to grasping the (diabolical but failing) globalist agenda of today.

Whether or not you agree with this is mostly irrelevant. The globalist elite are absolutely dedicated to this. So whether it’s true or false or partly true/partly false is again almost irrelevant. Those intent on global dominion are 100% sold out to this and have no intention of acquiescing to what they would refer to as stupid minions, or workers, basically the majority of people who they deem worthless and in the way.

I realize some of these concepts are going to be met with a lot of resistance, especially in mainstream Christianity. I’m not here to sell you anything. I’m presenting what I’ve been learning, and you can evaluate its merit and make your own decisions. I have nothing to gain from presenting my understanding, (and actually I have much to lose). But if you’re unwilling to look at the evidence of the claims, don’t bother to write me and tell me how wrong I am. It takes study and an open mind to understand these concepts. I’ll be giving you in short bursts what I’ve been studying for years.

Dr. Heiser teaches that Deuteronomy 32:8-9 reads in the original Dead Sea Scrolls:

“When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance (נחל, nchl), when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God (האלהיםֹבני, bny h’lhym) But the LORD’s portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage”. (emphasis mine)

[Modern translations have “according to the number of the sons of Israel”, which is a mis-translation that he proves in chapter fourteen of his book. He also has a 27-page paper breaking it down here.]

This indicates that God gave the nations (that were divided after the tower of Babel) over to the authority of the (lesser) gods of the Divine Council, but set aside Israel as His own. He then set Himself to separate a people who would hopefully be a light to the world, distinguishing between those who walk with God and those who do not. If you evaluate the Mosaic law and instructions to the Israelites after the Exodus in the light of this foundation, I think you’ll see most of the laws were almost specific to contradict the corrupt teachings learned by the people from the gods.

You have to read Enoch to understand the level of corruption the gods had brought to humanity. In the Book of Enoch (Enoch I) and the book of Daniel, those gods of the Divine Council are also called the Watchers. For example, Enoch is instructed (Chapter 16) to tell the Watchers who rebelled and caused rebellion on earth, “You have been in heaven, but all the mysteries had not yet been revealed to you, and you knew worthless ones, and these in the hardness of your hearts you have made known to the women, and through these mysteries women and men work much evil on earth.”

This degeneration on the earth (see Enoch 7 and 8) was a thorough corruption. Perhaps those who have studied the secret organizations of the wicked on the earth will understand that those who have set themselves in the highest organizations of power and influence on the earth today are just as Enoch described in 65:6: “…because they have learned all the secrets of the angels and all the violence of the devils, and all their powers – the most secret ones – and all the power of those who practice sorcery, and the power of witchcraft, and the power of those who make molten images for the whole earth…”

Chapter 69 goes through the list of the Watchers’ crimes against God and His order, and how they taught this wickedness to the men and women on earth. It’s a sobering list; it’s a list that plainly demonstrates the same wickedness is on the earth today, passed down from those in rebellion to God, whether in flesh or in spirit.

When you understand that this is a cosmic battle of gods in rebellion to the Supreme God…. When you study the origins of the original crimes against humanity… It becomes plain that today is just an extension of an ancient war, and it’s crescendoing to its climax. The same crimes the ancient gods inflicted upon humanity through cunning and deceit and promise of wealth and power, are the same crimes running the world today.

When you realize earth is the battlefield…. The days of Noah and the days of Lot seem even more relevant than ever. Current events corroborate this battle engages the whole of humanity on this plane called Earth.

Remember, this is what THEY believe. Remember that Hillary’s emails include an email with a reference to “sacrifice a chicken to Moloch”? Of course that’s been soundly deciphered as code words for pedophilia and child sacrifice. But the word choice of “Moloch” isn’t random. Moloch is one of those gods they worship. Moloch and Baal and the list goes on. [Look up Bohemian Grove and the reports from infiltrators.] They have pledged their allegiance to these gods, and for the most part, these gods have given them their worldly success and riches and power. They are indebted to these gods.

These gods require sacrifice, the blood of innocent. Survivors and victims of the horrific child trafficking rings tell similar stories of rituals they were made to watch or participate in with blood sacrifices, including human, usually children. They are always in a type of ceremony, almost always with black cloaked people around an altar of sorts.

They worship and have pledged their allegiance to these gods who rebelled against God. They prefer these gods over Creator God. They think they can overthrow God. They are also running on a timeline, and to them, they have to create a set amount of chaos in order to have a chance to throw the timeline back to their agenda. They are panicked and they are desperate because it’s not going as well as they thought. They thought they’d have this in the bag by now. There was an eight year plan that was supposed to be the coup de grâce  — unfurled in 2016. They spent decades building up the under girding for the final unfurl. Their plans were thwarted when Trump was elected (in spite of their best efforts to insulate against that). It set their timeline back considerably, and time is not a luxury they have anymore. They’re working against a ticking clock and they know it.

So it doesn’t matter a great deal whether we believe in these gods they believe in (though there are plenty of Scriptural clues they exist), because the globalist tools DO, and they are acting accordingly.

The frenzy before the climax

If the Project Looking Glass information be correct and ultimately the plans of the globalists will fail and an awakening of sorts will instead happen, then Bill Wood’s analogy of the seven moves until checkmate bears weight for the here and now. For it means the people intent on their seizure of earth and its inhabitants for their own purposes are more desperate than ever to achieve their objective as they feel it slipping through their fingers. They are willing to roll out every action in their playbook in desperation to swing the momentum to their side.

Even now the WHO is projecting a new deadly pandemic (DiseaseX). Experts are predicting a Black Swan economic event. Our border has been purposefully and methodically infiltrated with enemies of the state. We’re allegedly tottering on the brink of any number of wars that could lead to world war. Our skies have never been more polluted, and Americans’ health has never been so poor. There are no shortages of weaknesses; there is no stretch to see the demise of America from enemies without and within, from recklessness and immorality and a host of things that put us on a curse rather than blessing list in God’s Book.

If we would be mindful of the lessons we learned in Covid-19, perhaps we will not allow the same and even more damage than the first round. Their modus operandi is always control through fear. It’s a basic playbook, and should be quite familiar to Christians, as we’re called to faith over fear. We’re supposed to agree with God, not fear. We’re supposed to walk out the Kingdom of God principles, not fall into the traps of man. But for the most part, Christianity in Kingdom power in America is a bit rusty, a little dusty, and a lot asleep.

I don’t know all the evil the world players are going to roll out in the coming passage of time. I know they will, though. And to the extent of agreement we give them is the extent of control they will gain.

“The words of the wise heard in quietness are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools. Wisdom is better than weapons of war…..” (Eccl. 9:17) Do you see that? Wisdom. Oh we need wisdom. Wisdom is heard in quietness. Find the quiet place and seek His face.

Let’s learn from the mistakes of those who have gone before. “In repentance and rest you will be saved. In quietness and trust is your strength.” (Is. 30:15)

In repentance, (shuwbah), returning to God…in rest (Arabic Nachath) descent, moving from a higher level to a lower level…. you will be saved (yasha) safe, free.

Return to God. Move from a place of pride, of self-sufficiency to a place of returning to God, depending upon Him. This will save you and avenge you, it will make you free.

In quietness (shaquat) to repose, rest, lie, a state of calm, freedom from worry…. In trust (bitchah) as in confidence, sureness… is your strength (gebuwrah) force, victory.

Recall the rest of that passage! The people rejected this counsel and fled (in fear) and put their faith in a foreign government (Egypt – symbolic of the way of the world) to save or protect them. Yet God said if they would return to God, come down from the place of self-sufficiency and pride, His people would have been saved, avenged, made free. If God’s people will rest, lie in a state of calm, refuse to worry and instead put their confidence in God, they would be strengthened and find victory.

I am quite aware of the armies entering our nation and assembling in designated areas to await their orders. I realize our government has sold us to our enemies. I realize there are biolabs here and abroad concocting a number of deadly toxins. I realize we are being crippled and diseased by malicious “food” practices, compromised “medical” facilities, and continual poisons in our air, food, water, bodies and minds.

At the end of the last article I exhorted you to listen to a message from Jamie Winship. In that message he illustrated the necessity of understanding your God-given identity, why you were created, what your purpose is, and how to hear God’s voice. It had so many practical instructions and illustrations for how we will proceed in the frenzied days ahead. Every answer we need for every problem and threat I’ve listed (and those I haven’t) is found in God and the solutions will be acted upon by His children who know their God and know their identity. The warriors will fight. The educators will teach. The healers will heal. The encouragers will give hope. The intercessors will petition the Throne for strategies. And the list goes on and on.

My Takeaway

So now is the time to return to God, to descend to a place of rest and trust in Him instead of a puffed up place of self-sufficiency, or a panicked state of distrust and fear. As I sought God at the end of 2023 for wisdom for the coming year, He was faithful to give it. He showed me there will be trials and turbulence and even disaster ahead. He plainly showed there will be judgments that will bring punishment and correction. He also plainly showed me I could not go through it without loss, and that instead I was to pull aside to a quiet place. The storms will rage around me outside, but from my place with Him and in Him, I will be safe and saved. He is no respecter of persons. What He will do for me He will do for you, if we just meet the requirements. Remember: repentance, rest, quietness and trust!

I believe “collective consciousness” was coined by psychologist Carl Jung. It’s the concept that there’s a community consciousness of sorts. (I’ve never really delved into it and don’t have an opinion one way or another. The few things I’ve run across in the years seemed a bit out there to me, so I left them alone.) Then there came the “100^th Monkey” from the 1950s…

The premise of the 100^th Monkey (in a nutshell) is a group of scientists in Japan were researching Macaque monkeys on various Japanese islands. They would drop sweet potatoes on the beach for the monkeys. On the island of Koshima they observed one monkey take a sweet potato to a fresh water lake and wash it. One by one the other monkeys began doing the same. The researchers noticed that after the hundredth monkey did it, that monkeys on other islands began doing it too, despite being detached and unable to observe or learn from the ones on Koshima.

It became known as the 100^th Monkey, and suggested that there was a collective consciousness. It suggested that when so many of the monkeys had the same thoughts, that it created a type of community of thought, if you will, where the community no longer had to learn the behavior or thought pattern, that it was picked up even subconsciously.

I probably would have rejected this concept in the past, except that I learned about the 100^th monkey after some quantum physics studies. I wrote a four part series on some of my (quantum) learning here. (If there’s interest I can republish them here on NewsWithViews. But they are kind of detailed with a lot of science and I didn’t know if there would be interest…. It’s probably my favorite series I’ve ever written.)

The gist of the notion is the human brain is a type of electric field (electromagnetic); it sends out a frequency (or frequencies). The human body is a magnetic field of its own. (I wrote about that in the spring of 2020, because the implications of that alone bear a lot of weight on things like “viruses” and “pandemics”.) The human body’s electro-magnetic field is a torus. For brevity I can’t get into that right now.

I bring it up because the seat of consciousness is in the brain, which is an electromagnetic field. The actual science exists that the frequencies emitted from a brain can be picked up by another brain – even subconsciously. There’s a lot of places we could go with this, but it’s not the purpose of this article.

The suggestion of the 100^th Monkey is that there is a tipping point – a point that when so many have the same thought (that leads to behavior or action), it tips into those outside of the original bubble of influence, it spills over and others pick up the frequencies that have spilled over.

Of course it’s “just a theory” with some remarkable circumstantial evidence. It could explain a “mob mentality” – where people engage in actions they would otherwise not do if alone but do when in a crowd engaged in such activity.

Now if we revisit the premise of Project Looking Glass (which I wrote about here) indicating there’s a point the world heads down a specific road and there’s nothing to change that outcome, (but it’s not the outcome the globalists want), it creates some questions with current events. According to the whistleblower on Project Looking Glass, after inserting numerous scenarios to try to change the outcome, they learned the outcome was inevitable. They learned the world was moving to a type of awakening rather than a dystopic globalist regime.

As a Christian, I don’t find that surprising.

I realize using math and science to substantiate faith is out of the comfort zone of a few Christians. Yet the universe was created by a Divine Creator who used principles and laws for His Creation. Those principles and laws can be found in math and science, if you stick with pure math and science and not the pseudo-science and math promoted in academia and globalist agendas. (Research the origins of the American educational system to understand how far away from true education it is. Here’s a good place to start.)

I know it’s trendy in Christendom Churchanity to predict and project an “Antichrist”, a great tribulation, a magical “rapture” and other Armageddon type scenarios. (I used to do it myself.) I know I’m going to anger a certain percentage of Christians just by saying that, and I’m sorry for that because I don’t want you to be so angry you can’t hear and research what I’m saying. So if you could withhold your indignation long enough to entertain another possibility, I have some things to say.

The power tools of the adversary of God are deception and fear, and they often work tandem.

What we do in the construct of organized church Christianity, is teach principles and precepts of the religion as has been passed down to us. If my own experiences are any indicator, questioning the established rhetoric is frowned upon and not at all encouraged. You can’t even have an innocent, just trying to understand, question in some churches. And if those principles and precepts are incomplete, or even worse, wrong, well you are generally put in a position of either dismissing your doubts and questions to stay in the good graces of the institution, or leaving and trying to find such truths apart from it. Such is the same system in the world.

For example, the “Antichrist” figure is for the most part taught as some evil person coming from somewhere like Russia, or Iran, or somewhere in the Middle East, and sometimes it’s even a person coming from America. And yet “antichrist” cannot be found anywhere in the book of Revelation. When I point that out, people usually point me to Revelation 13. There are two beasts in Revelation, and beasts are prophetic imagery for kingdoms or countries. That’s not a person.

It matters not to most institutionalized Christians. They don’t miss a beat as they continue to guess and project what new world leader is the “Antichrist”. If I press them, they’ll pull from some pastor or teacher or apologist to justify why they must see the “Antichrist” as the beast in Revelation 13, coming to kill all the Christians – (as if error cannot be passed down).

Let’s change gears for a minute.

Do you remember the “Leave the World Behind” Netflix movie I referenced in my last article? Did you know that people who work in video editing discovered there are four audio tracks in the video? There are usually one. In fact, there are never multiple audio tracks in a video – says people who have worked in the field for a number of years. They found one of the tracks is specifically infrasonic frequencies (ELF).

The infrasonic track peaked at just a few places in the movie, places of extreme stress. (I believe it was maximized at the scenes when the ship ran aground on the beach, and both times the piercing pitch was sent out for a full minute.) Infrasonic frequency is known to disrupt sleep and to cause feelings of fear, dread and/or depression.

There are other theories as to why infrasonic frequencies were inserted into the movie, but I can’t cover those with brevity in this article. For now let’s just evaluate why an Armageddon type movie could be inserting indiscernible frequencies in its movie at stress points when infrasonic frequencies are known to incite fear or dread (or worse).

Obviously there’s a desire to incite feelings of fear or dread. It is, after all, a movie about cataclysmic events in America. We could attempt to give some benefit of doubt by saying it was just theatrical effect (albeit it hasn’t been done like that before to current knowledge) to enhance the intended impact.

But….

What about predictive programming? Predictive programming is the concept that they use media outlets (movies, music, literature, etc.) to predict what they want to do in the future. They paint the outline, so to speak, and it fills in at a future time. Examples would be Contagion for Covid-19, White Noise for the Palestine, OH chemical spill (ironically both produced by Netflix), “The Eyes of Darkness” by Dean Koontz for Covid-19, and any number of Simpsons or South Park episodes, etc.

The theory is they plant the idea in the head so that when the future produces the scenario the mind accepts its reality because it’s familiar. Whether that’s true or not is subjective, but there are a lot of uncanny “coincidences” between media products and subsequent real events.

Let’s say the Leave the World Behind was an attempt at predictive programming. It would mean, then, that there is a plan or objective to propel America into some sort of “attack”, whether it be foreign attack, cyber attack, economic attack, or a combination of things. They elude to a breakdown of communication and a turning of neighbor against neighbor, almost a civil war type of thing at the onset of perceived external attack. One is left, at the end of the movie, with the distinct impression everyone is for himself, and must wait “it” out. Any semblance of victory, of unity, of push back against the unidentified attacker is absent. Hmmm….

The Obamas producing the movie is enough to give a discerning mind pause. The Obamas are the Manchurian candidates for deceiving Americans into accepting a veneer of political correctness sitting under a base of diabolical tyranny. So if the puppets of deceit are producing a movie of the demise of America, what’s the motive? I can assure you it is not pure entertainment.

I’m going to argue here that Klaus Schwab and Yuval Noah Harari and ilk don’t have their world globalist agenda buttoned up like they hoped they would. Things aren’t going as swimmingly as they hoped, and the minions of the world are pushing back on their agendas. German farmers, Dutch farmers, Canadian activists, even America seems done with Hollywood’s voices. (If only we could show the sports ball enthusiasts they’re watching the same script Hollywood produces, just in different clothes.)

Bill Wood, whistle blower for Project Looking Glass, said it kind of like this: Let’s say you’re watching a chess match between two Chess Masters, the two best. And the one looks down at the board and realizes he’s in check mate in seven moves. The only way he gets out of this is if his opponent makes a mistake. He looks across at his opponent and realizes his opponent knows full well he has him in check mate in seven moves. What can he do? He can play out the next six moves any way he wants, the end will remain the same. He can stall and try to delay the end. He will make every attempt to take out his opponents moves, but it will all still be in vain.

I don’t know how to make you see this in 2500 words or less, so I’m going to spend a few future articles trying to break pieces down to help you see. It’s not that there aren’t hard things ahead for us. I’ve spent some time praying about 2024 and I know the Lord showed me there are some hard things in front of us. BUT…. It’s the frantic six moves before checkmate. They are desperate to try to swing the momentum back to get their globalist tyrannical utopia. They will pull out all the stops to try to change the outcome, even though the outcome is already decided and they lose.

How long will those six moves take? I don’t know. A year? Five years? Ten? Only God knows.

But I think the action of the key players is telling. I think they’re panicked. I think the movie was an attempt to paint a picture of defeat, and embed (with maybe some infrasonic frequency help) fear in the minds of the minions. They need a collective consciousness of fear (and they will use deceit to create it). They’re hoping they can create enough circumstances to produce enough fear for that tipping point to spill over into a collective consciousness that submits to their agenda through default of fear.

They are few and we are many. They need the many in fear of the few. They’ve deceived themselves (and others) that they will obtain their victory. But it’s really not up to them. They’re the pawns of God’s adversary, and while they think they’re calling the shots, they really aren’t. I want to expound on the cosmic battle in the coming weeks, but it will take me some time to lay it all out.

Yes, the enemy has plans to bring destruction, and some of those moves he’s going to make will be painful. We can navigate the battlefield with little loss if we know how to position ourselves. I only have some of the pieces and understanding, but I will present all that I have. In the meantime, have a listen to this.

The Obamas collaborated to produce a trending movie on Netflix called “Leave the World Behind.” It’s basically an Armageddon type movie where America is under attack from various angles and the implication is it will be destroyed or fundamentally altered. I won’t get into the details, but you can read a great synopsis of the symbolism in it here.

Why do you suppose the Obamas wanted to produce a movie depicting America under siege and the end of America as we know it? We’ll get back to that in a moment.

Moving forward into 2024…

My husband and I like to read the famous Oswald Chambers devotional My Utmost for His Highest. The December 31^st entry seemed especially profound a couple weeks ago for a couple reasons I’d like to elucidate. Here’s the entry:

As I meditated on that in the following days, some of its profoundness really spoke to me. It reminded me of some life journey lessons I’ve learned along the way that speak to some of the topic of foundations I alluded to in my prior article.

Errors in the foundation create future building problems

We have errors in our foundations just like we have errors in our past. Those errors weaken the structure until they are either removed or reinforced with corrective measures. If our foundations are riddled with errors, our structure is weak and the weaker it is, the easier it topples.

When we learn from the errors, we don’t take them into the future as building blocks, but rather as construction signs for future building. We use them to remember what not to do, or what to do differently, or what to avoid, etc.

If we don’t understand or identify the errors, they remain in the foundation and weaken the structure. “God reminds us of the past to protect us from a very shallow security in the present.” Cognizance of our past errors protects us from falling into the same pits in our present.

The more weaknesses we have in our foundations that have not been fixed, the weaker our structure becomes with age. Because when we move forward with errors intact, we build on weak foundations.

I say this because sometimes I’ve realized layers of foundation were laid that I later learned were in error. I can’t always “fix” these errors. Sometimes I have to remove them altogether. That’s an arduous task. Depending on how old those faulty foundational layers are, is the extent of construction I have to go through. If the foundational layer has multiple layers atop of it, I have to take other layers down to remove the bottom level error. This upsets the apple cart, to put it mildly.

Of course, a foundational layer on a wing of my structure won’t cause the same damage as a foundational layer in the building’s bedrock structure. It’s when the foundational layer is embedded in the strength of the foundation that I have serious reconstruction to do that usually starts with demolition.

Sometimes you have to let go of one thing to get hold of another

This is a key to a lot of different things in life. Relationships are a good example. Sometimes we have to let go of past offenses in a relationship (the Bible calls this forgiveness) in order to move forward to a healthier relationship. If I sinned against you, or just made a mistake (innocent or otherwise) that cost you in pain, confusion, misdirection, loss, or any number of things, then if I am in a repentant state, if I have turned from the error of my ways and changed my mind, then you will have to let go of your judgment and perspective of me in my prior state in order to receive me in my present state. If you don’t, and if you hold onto me in the perspective of my past mistake(s), you will never have with me the health of a better relationship. (of course the inverse is as true)

Foundational errors work the same way. If I am presented with a new (to me) truth that contradicts a foundational truth I hold, I must evaluate this new truth apart from the old truth in my personal foundation. If I try to evaluate the presented “new” truth with my current foundation that contradicts it, (most people are not strong enough to do this), I will almost always reject the new truth as error. (whether it is or not)

This is true for almost any category, whether it be your knowledge foundation from your accumulated schools and educational resources of life, or it be your relationship foundation from your accumulated experiences with people in life, or it be your spiritual foundation from your accumulated learning from various teachers and institutions coupled with your personal experiences, etc.

If we don’t acknowledge that our foundations could have errors, we’re unlikely to be liberated from the consequences of those errors. We will continue on in our lives with a host of consequences like being deceived, misunderstanding events in our life and around us, broken relationships, confusion, drawing wrong conclusions, etc.

We have to learn how to let go of foundational truths at least long enough to objectively evaluate new truths. We can do that by examining our own foundation, which is helpful but hard to do objectively because we are so familiar with it that it is inherently correct to our judgment. (Because who purposely builds on error and lies??? We think what we know and have understood is truth, as a general rule.)

And we can do that by setting aside what we know as truth and evaluating new information on its own merit, instead of rejecting it because it produces a conflict within us. (Look up “normalcy bias” to understand this a bit more.) It’s not that we immediately reject our foundational layers any time new information comes, because a portion of our foundation will be good, real and true. It’s that we have to be willing to set it aside long enough to give the new information an honest assessment.

We have to let go of one to take hold of another.

If in the effort of evaluating the new information we find it faulty, we simply reject it and retain our foundation. BUT if we find the conflicting new information has merit, we are in the delicate position of determining if this new truth can co-exist with our foundational truth, and if so, how? And if it not, one has to go. Which one should it be?

Beware of the stronghold that comes with the religious spirit

I taught an extensive class in 2014 that God made me do a whole class just to prepare the class FOR the class I was going to teach. He had me address things that keep us from receiving new teaching, new information, new ideas, etc. One of the (many) things that keeps us from receiving new revelation from God is the religious spirit. He gave me two passages of Scriptures to make two points to show how the religious spirit shuts off revelation.

In Mark 9:30-32 Christ was teaching His disciples and telling them plainly how He was going to die. [He would be delivered to men who would kill Him and then He would rise after three days.] Then the Scripture says this curious thing: “But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him.”

The idea is that sometimes we cannot understand plain concepts, thoughts or teachings from God because our own understanding of what we think about a topic gets in the way of the revelation of truth He’s trying to show us. The disciples could not grasp this plain statement from God because they had their own ideas and thoughts of why Jesus was there and what He was going to do.

My own foundational thoughts about a thing can keep me from new thoughts about the same thing. It will cause me to miss revelation because I can’t let go of the familiar foundation (that is in error) enough to receive the (new) information as truth.

In Mark 8:9-13, Jesus had just fed the four thousand by a miracle. He got in His boat and went to an adjacent area to minister. The Pharisees came out and began arguing with Him, testing Him, asking Him for a sign…. (Remember He just fed four thousand from scraps.) He sighed and said He would not give one and left.

God simply said to me entertaining the religious spirit will cause Jesus to leave without receiving the revelation He was bringing. If God has brought truth to me and I decide to test His package, He may indeed leave without depositing the revelation. The religious spirit rises against the revelation of Christ and we are left empty-handed when we could instead receive from the bounty of God, whether it be healing, revelation, wisdom, deliverance, etc.

I’m going to suggest some difficult theories for current events in the articles to come. Some may be counter-intuitive. Some may contradict the status quo and the common teaching of familiar institutions. I’m not saying I’m right, but I do know it will be hard for some people to even evaluate the possibilities of them because of foundational blocks that may have been already laid. If you want to evaluate them on their own merit, you may have to let go of what you think you know, at least long enough to analyze them.

Back to the movie….

I think the Obamas produced the movie “Leave the World Behind” to raise a collective consciousness to endorse an inevitable end to America. I think that the powers that be that are driving the world to the cliff of a new world order globalist regime, need to sell fear and doubt to the masses in order to achieve their purposes.

Ex-military whistle blower Bill Wood exposed a lot of things about America’s leadership’s agenda. One of his most intriguing reveals was the Project Looking Glass interview, which has been substantiated by a few other sources. It’s basically the concept that shadow government players developed a (sort of) computer program that puts in the data of scenarios and probabilities to predict human response. (I’m base-lining this for brevity. It’s more complicated than this.) It’s kind of like if we do this action, here are the statistical probabilities of these outcomes.

This is a lot more complicated than I’m covering here because it deals in quantum physics and world timelines, etc. But the takeaway is they were able to get the computer to push ahead several years in advance of scenarios.

They put scenarios in of if they do this, people will do that, then they’ll counter-move this, and people will do that, etc. And what they found was an alleged split timeline where it was going to go one way or another: cataclysmic or reformative. The further they pushed in the data, the more they discovered it was not going to end well for the globalist agenda. Every scenario ultimately ended in rejection of the tyranny and a mass global awakening. They continued to put different scenarios in to try to get the outcome they wanted, and each time it ended the same way.

Their Project Looking Glass, their Yellow Cube or Yellow Book (all computer simulations of outcomes of events) originally projected Hillary Clinton winning the 2016 election. Imagine their surprise when she didn’t. [You’ll say this was because it was a faulty program. I think it was because of the biases of the programmers more than the program.] From that point on they have been determined to create an event or series of events that puts their globalist agenda back into the reality. The program says it’s past the point of no return. It is not just an improbability, but an impossibility.

It’s now 2017. Enter Q, the voice that entered the arena in the anonymous pages of a crude message board. Strange the timing of the entrance. Q had seeming insider information about a host of things kept hidden in the dark, and Q began an interaction with a growing body of patriots who were sick of the wickedness. You don’t have to “believe in Q” or endorse Q or any sort of agreement whatsoever. I had a handful of people rail against me regarding Q. But maybe Q’s purpose was a vehicle to generate an awakening. Maybe Q’s purpose wasn’t an intended end, just a tool for facilitating the awakening?

Q had a saying that got adopted pretty wide: “Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming”, later abbreviated to NCSWIC. It became apparent Q’s security clearance was the top of the top. What if Q had access to the Looking Glass findings and Q knew all of the raging to order the world into this dystopic future was for naught ultimately? That would give license for the phrase that ignores present actions for future victory.

I’ll write more on this later, but I think the Obamas and their ilk are trying desperately to create a narrative based on fear in hopes of tilting the alleged inevitable outcome where they lose. I think they think if they can create an atmosphere of hopelessness, of darkness, of depravity, of disasters and cataclysmic events, that they will be able to prevent their ultimate defeat and demise. They have this theory that the collective consciousness can change their outcome if they can get the collective consciousness in fear. (enter pandemics, natural disasters, war, etc.)

Many are warning of an unleashing of difficult scenarios in 2024. I think the solution is refusal to agree with the darkness. I think instead we should heed the wisdom of Oswald Chambers. God “…will go before you…. God will send His forces out where we have failed to do so. He will keep watch so that we will not be tripped up again by the same failures… It is true that we have lost opportunities that will never return, but God can transform this destructive anxiety into a constructive thoughtfulness for the future. Let the past rest, but let it rest in the sweet embrace of Christ. Leave the broken, irreversible past in His hands, and step out into the invincible future with Him.”

The future is bright if we know how to look at it and how to align with the purposes of God. We must refuse to align with the agendas of godless people, reject the darkness, and walk fearlessly in the light of God.

I’ve been spending a lot of time the past year or more, reevaluating my convictions and beliefs.  The old adage, “the more you learn the less you know” has resonated through my core.   I won’t bore you with all the categories I’ve revisited, or even all the things I’ve reevaluated and changed some of my thinking on.  I’ll just let you know where I am now.

I know nothing completely.  I only know in part, and am fumbling my way to learning more.  Let the record state.

You know how President Reagan said, “It isn’t so much that liberals are ignorant. It’s just that they know so many things that aren’t so.”?  I just don’t want to be THAT.  I need the little parts I do know to be truth.

Watching the systematic dismantling of our nation has been grueling.  There are no less than a hundred serious issues in America, (and most of them have been assessed prolifically in the public square).  As I found myself more and more burdened by the seeming growing darkness, I sought all the harder to find the Light.  It’s been almost two years of this pursuit, and this is where I find myself today…

I’ve been looking at it all wrong.

The Ancient of Days cannot be defeated, minimized, or subdued.  However dark the days are becoming is irrelevant to the Kingdom of God, which cannot be destroyed, defeated, or even altered. 

The Spirit keeps leading me back to Daniel 7, the vision of the coming beasts in Daniel’s day.  Do you recall that when the Son of Man is presented in Daniel’s vision, that He was given dominion, glory and a kingdom that is everlasting and cannot be destroyed?  (vs. 14)  But wait!  It gets better!  That kingdom that Christ takes dominion of is given to the saints of God who will possess it “for all ages to come.”  (vs. 18 and again in 27)

(I realize there will be some theological differences here of when that occurs, but I don’t have space to get into that right now.  Let me just say, I am thoroughly convinced that kingdom has been given to Christ upon His victory over the devil and death; He now possesses it, as do the saints of God.)

This means try as the darkness may, it cannot achieve the takeover of the earth.  It can only take what it is given.  [And let’s be clear about this, it accomplishes this through deceit.  Yes, people yield to the darkness because they are blind, ignorant and/or deceived.  But we are children of the Light, and we merely have to resist the darkness and it has to flee.]  (James 4:7)

[Sidebar:  Before you contact me to inform me how wrong I am about the timing on this, please spend some time in Daniel 2.  Recall the statue of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream.  We know that the statue is relegated in the end of an era as inferior kingdoms of mixture represented by the final state of the Roman empire.  We also know that the final state of the Roman empire is the beginning of the Church of Christ/Kingdom of God.  (not a denomination, but the actual followers of Christ)  According to Daniel, Christ’s kingdom is set up in those days, the days the Roman empire fractures and fails.  He even uses the imagery of a stone cut from a mountain, and we know Christ to be the cornerstone of the Kingdom of God.  Eventually that kingdom established by the rock cut from the mountain will crush all other kingdoms and remain the only enduring kingdom.  THAT kingdom (Christ’s) only grows, only gets stronger and bigger.]

There is no contingency.  That is the only plan and it is a plan that cannot fail.

The only thing darkness can do to children of light is deceive.

Our position in the Kingdom of God is superior to anything the kingdoms of this world can offer.  We have to stop straddling between two kingdoms.  Darkness can only take from light what light gives it. 

We must stop giving anything to darkness.

We are not victims of bad people.  We are more than conquerors in Christ.  (Romans 8:37)

Refuse to participate with the works of darkness.

It’s really that simple.  (and by simple I don’t mean necessarily easy)

I’m in a women’s group that meets monthly, and we were meeting in 2020.  The obvious current events dominated many of our discussions.  (masks, mandates, vaccines, etc.)  At one point I told the group that Bill and I weren’t participating in the pandemic.  They seemed taken aback and asked what I meant.  I mean that we don’t wear masks, don’t stay home, we do our own shopping, still gather with friends and family, keep our blood untainted by untested poisons, etc.  To us, the “pandemic” was a setting on another stage, but was not our stage, not our reality.  (and yes, Bill got covid twice and was treated and recovered fine with the nonpoisonous treatments available and without the medical industry’s input)

I don’t adhere to the systems of the world.  They don’t dictate my actions, and if they get in my way, I find a way around or through.  This is the responsibility of freedom (both as a Christian, but also as a free American).  It may get dicey in the days to come here in America.  The determined and desperate powers of darkness operating through humans may attempt to force conditions, and we may be forced to take some hard stands that may cost us.  But let’s not just give it to them.  Let’s not go along to get along.  What does light have to do with darkness?

The Kingdom of God cannot be defeated, and as Christ told us in Matthew 13, though the kingdom of God started small (like a mustard seed), it will grow full size to the point it will become a tree that houses much life.  That tree cannot be cut down, and it will not be thwarted. 

Christ went on to say the Kingdom of God is like leaven which though hidden in just three small parts of flour went on to leaven all of the dough.  The dynamic character of yeast is that once the process begins, it cannot be thwarted.  The kingdom of God cannot be stopped.

And then THIS is where God led me in a sort of full circle: 

A bearded darnel is also called a tare, and in broader language, a weed.  The tare (darnel) also looks like wheat at first glance.  Christ told us the wheat and tares will grow up together.  Tearing out the tares will damage the wheat, and so they must co-exist until the harvest, so as to not damage the wheat.

Their roots get intertwined.  God’s children are in a world system where at first glance we might look like the children of the world.  But upon closer look, we’re clearly not.  It would seem we must co-exist in this world, each of us reaching fruition of our character, whether for good or evil.  To try to tear out the weeds among the wheat (the bad among the good) before full fruition can damage the good as well.  Both must be left to reach full harvest, and only at the harvest will they be separated.

The harvest is the end of the age.  (Matthew 13:24-30)

Pragmateuomai…. It’s only used one time in the Bible.  Occupy.  “To busy oneself with; to trade.”    It comes from the (Greek) root word “pragma” which means a deed, business, practice.  The New American Standard says, “do business” and the English says, “engage in business”.  It’s the only place in the Bible the word is used.

It’s in the parable of the nobleman who went to get his kingdom and gathered his servants to give them instructions until his return.  Luke 19:13, “…and he said to them, occupy until I come.”  Busy yourself with the resources I’ve given you; do business, practice, engage in business…. “until I come.”

This is our solution.  This should be our focus.

“The darkness is not dark to You, the night is as bright as the day.  Darkness and light are alike to You.”  (Psalm 139:12)

The solution to the rising darkness is increasing our light.  We occupy.  We co-exist with the darkness, in but not of, and we busy ourselves with what God has given us in this territory we’ve been given – in our homes, our jobs, our cities, our country. 

Remember that fear is darkness, and our culture, society, and world operate out of fear.  Media, government officials, even church leaders motivate by fear.  Begin to evaluate all information coming at you and recognize anything that promotes fear or stimulates a fear reaction in you.  Once your recognize it, break alignment with it.  Do not be in step with it.  Fear is used to control and paralyze.  It is paramount for the works of darkness.  The opposite of fear is love, and the countermove of fear is faith.  Look for the God solution to the “problem” being promoted and walk toward that until you are in it.

It’s not dark to God anyway.  His Kingdom isn’t going anywhere; it can’t be defeated or destroyed or even thwarted.  We’re of His Kingdom.  We stand. 

We have the solutions to the darkness.  If we don’t, we must find them. 

The food supply is threatened.  Grow your own.  The meat supply is threatened.  Buy from your local farmer.  The water supply is increasingly toxic.  Set up a home water filtration system, dig a well, harvest rain water.

The medical industry is killing us and making us sicker.  It’s controlled by Pharma and only prescribes toxins.  Study natural healing, homeopathy, and/or put yourself in the care of experts in such areas.

There’s an increasing surveillance state.  Get off every surveillance thing you can (Google, YouTube and Facebook are the biggest surveillance watchers in the world).  Don’t employ them.  There are alternative phone options, computer options, etc.  If you don’t know where, seek.

We’re tired and sick.  Eat healthier.  Exercise more.  Get in the sunlight.  Turn off your wi-fi and hardwire your electronics to lower your exposure to EMFs.  Learn how to deflect damaging 5G waves.  Get off highly toxic prescriptions and learn how to heal your afflictions naturally and/or spiritually.

The economy is imploding and I have to work harder to keep less.  Start co-ops with friends and family.  Buy in bulk with others if necessary and split costs.  Ride a bicycle when possible to strengthen your body and offset gas.  Downsize if necessary, reinforce infrastructure if possible to minimize energy costs, etc.

The public schools are indoctrinating my children and grandchildren.  Remove them.  Homeschool.  Set up a homeschool co-op if you need to and share teaching responsibilities with other parents if schedules are hard to optimize.  Find a private or charter school if that suits you better.  Start a private or charter school.  Vet every single influencer in your child’s life.

The entertainment industry and public arena is full of depravity.  REFUSE TO PARTICIPATE.  Set up alternatives to everything that violates your convictions.  Shut off the TV or find wholesome activities.  Strengthen your family so the world doesn’t destroy it.

Corey’s Digs has a series of interviews called The Solution Series that right now feature 25 different experts in their field.  They have solutions to the darkness in fields like technology, food supply, finance, health, self-reliance, and even the political realm.  I have a notebook full of notes from it that I’m working through at implementing real time and real world solutions to tyranny, depravity, and other works of darkness attempting to occupy my energy. 

We must be creators of light in our spheres of influence.  We’ll be side by side with workers of darkness, but we are from the superior kingdom.  We’re from the kingdom that can’t lose, can’t be destroyed, can’t be diminished, that ultimately cannot fail.  Once we wrap our heads around that, occupying until He comes becomes clearer.  We can focus better. 

The world may indeed get darker, but if we’re doing our jobs, our lives will be the lights those in the darkness need, and will further the unshakeable Kingdom of God.  A long time ago I learned the phrase, “What you behold you become.”  Behold the Light; become the light.
