Revolutionaries Inside the Church — The Plan & The Implementation

“The French Illuminatus, however, did not fall into the error of his English contemporary (Robert Owen), of alienating public opinion by the repudiation of Christianity; on the contrary, faithful to the directions of Weishaupt Saint Simon in his book Le Nouveau Christianisme, set out to prove that his (Illuminati) system was simply the fulfillment of Christ’s teaching on the brotherhood of man, which had become perverted by the belief in the necessity for subduing the flesh; “therefore in order to re-establish Christianity on its true basis it was necessary to restore its sensual side, the absence of which strikes its social action with sterility.” * It is easy to see how such a theory fits in with the plan of the Haute Vente for general demoralization.

Of course, as Weishaupt had foreseen, the method of identifying Christianity with Socialism proved immensely effectual. The wild-eyed revolutionary waving a red flag will never gain so many converts as the mild philosopher who preaches peaceful revolution carried out on the principles of Christian love and brotherhood. It was this old deception of representing Christ as a Socialist which made the strength of Saint-Simonism, and that, practiced later on by the so-called Christian Socialists of our own country, not only drew countless amiable visionaries into Socialism but at the same time drove many virile minds from Christianity to seek relief in Nietzscheism.

In reality, no two principles could be more opposed than that of Christ, who taught that ” a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things that he possesseth,” and that of the purely materialistic philosophy which urges mankind to strive for one thing only — present welfare and to indulge the grossest sensual passions…

A significant result of this parting company between Socialism and Illuminism was shown in the abandonment of the campaign of militant Atheism that had distinguished the earlier Revolutionary movement, and the readers of Atelier were enjoined to regard the clergy no longer as ‘suspects,’ but as possible allies. ‘The Revolution has only to proclaim itself Christian, to desire only what Christianity command,’ and the clergy will be obliged to unite with it.”

Nesta Webster
World Revolution — p. 110-114

Clearly, the modern Evangelical & Reformed Church, exceptions notwithstanding having been co-opted by the philosophy advanced by Saint Simon and the Socialists now are those who advance the agenda of Communistic Revolutionaries.

This was seen in the latest round of the Church Assemblies. The Southern Baptists elected a leftist plagiarizer to be President while the PCA continued to play footsies with the Side-b gay brigade. Not to be found wanting the OPC molly-coddled their feminists. All of this is merely the continued extension of the Revolutionary mindset that has successfully insinuated itself into what was once considered the orthodox and conservative expression of the Reformed and Evangelical faith.

Any Christian — minister or laymen — who gets crosswise of this new burgeoning Revolutionary “Christian” faith is set upon like a pack of starving hyenas sporting with a dying creature. If you have any doubts just ask one Rev. Michael Spangler of the OPC who just had the hyenas of the OPC rip and tear at him for truthfully calling a feminist spade a ruddy wolf shovel. Failing that you can ask your humble correspondent about how the hyenas got more than their pound of flesh from me as I have been labeled everything from a “racist” to a “misogynist” by ecclesial Revolutionaries who are themselves the intellectual seed of Weishaupt, Babeuf, Buonartti, and Saint Simon who themselves were of their Father the Devil.

This is not the first time we have seen the Revolutionary impulse we are seeing now. Ironically enough, the PCA, which now is a nest of epistemologically self-conscious Revolutionaries originally separated from their Mother church — the PCUS — because the conviction of the PCA founders was that the PCUS had become Revolutionary. Can you imagine the PCA of today agreeing with the words of one of their founders, Dr. John Edwards Richards?

Causes of Separation in 1973 (PCA separates from PCUS)

  • The Socialist, who declares all men are equal. Therefore there must be a great leveling of humanity and oneness of privilege and possession.
  • The Racial Amalgamationist, who preaches that the various races should be merged into one race and differences erased in oneness.
  • The Communist, who would have one mass of humanity coerced into oneness by a totalitarian state and guided exclusively by Marxist philosophy.
  • The Internationalist, who insists on co-existence between all peoples and nations that they be as one regardless of ideology or history.

    Dr. John Edwards Richards also spoke his mind without being disciplined by anybody on other subjects.

    “No human can measure the anguish of personality that goes on within the children of miscegenation… Let those who would erase the racial diversity of God’s creation beware lest the consequence of their evil be visited upon their children.”

    Here is Dr. John Edwards Richards speaking in such a way circa 1973 in a way that would find the PCA Revolutionaries today clawing their ears in maniacal discomfort.

    “The vast majority of good thinking people prefer to associate with, and intermarry with, people of their respective race; this is part of the God-given inclination to honor and uphold the distinctiveness of separate races. But there are many false prophets of oneness, and many shallow stooges, who seek to force the amalgamation of the races.”

    Dr. John Edwards Richards in 1973 was speaking against miscegenation. Today’s PCA Revolutionaries are speaking for the acceptability of their ministers being horny for other men. Can anybody here disagree that the Revolution continues within the previously orthodox denominations and churches?

    And just in case anybody thinks that Dr. John Edwards Richards was unique let’s have just one word from Dr. Morton Smith who likewise was a founder of the PCA.

    The Racial Problem Facing America (1964)

If from this we may conclude that ethnic pluriformity is the revealed will of God for the human race in its present situation, it is highly questionable whether the Christian can have part in any program that would seek to erase all ethnic distinctions. That such distinctions may be crossed over by individuals may be granted, but it is at least questionable whether a program designed to wipe out such differences on a mass scale should be endorsed by the Christian. It is this line of argument that the average Christian segregationist uses to back his view. He fears that the real goal of the integrationist is the intermarriage of the races, and therefore the breakdown of the distinctions between them. Many who would be willing to integrate at various lesser levels refuse to do so, simply because they feel that such will inevitably lead to intermarriage of the races, which they consider to be morally wrong. . . .

The mass mixing of the races with the intent to erase racial boundaries he does consider to be wrong, and on the basis of this, he would oppose the mixing of the two races in this way. Let it be acknowledged that a sin in this area against the Negro race has been perpetrated by godless white men, both past and present, but this does not justify the adoption of a policy of mass mixing of the races. Rather, the Bible seems to teach that God has established and thus revealed his will for the human race now to be that of ethnic pluriformity, and thus any scheme of mass integration leading to mass mixing of the races is decidedly unscriptural.

Does anybody out there really believe that these views of two of the founders of the PCA could be successfully held by someone trying to be ordained in any of our “conservative denominations?” No, views like these will find one hearing for calls from the ministerial corps to hang the guilty ordinate wannabee from the highest yardarm. There will be catcalls from the cheap seats of “Neo-confederate,” “Hater,” and “extremist.” The name of Jesus will be invoked and a sudden chant of “love me do” will arise from those who have taken holy orders.

So where does all this end? Why it ends in the continuation of tacking to the Revolutionary left. The SBC, the OPC, the PCA, and others like them will soon be where their comrades of the Christian Reformed Church of North America (CRCNA) are. Remember it was not that many years ago when the CRCNA was cheek by jowl with the PCA and OPC in the conservative NAPARC (National Association of Presbyterian and Reformed Churches). Indeed, the CRCNA was just finally expelled from NAPARC this year after suffering the indignity of being suspended since 1999. (Did anybody notice?) Now, however, the “Conservative” brethren who tossed the CRCNA are just a few years behind their “Dutch” comrades who are hanging ten on the Revolutionary wave. Listen to the surfer dudes of the CRCNA;


“Congregations must also call people who are attracted to the same sex into recognized positions of service and leadership. Having been ostracized for so long, many will need support and encouragement in using their gifts for the good of the body. They should be encouraged to use their unique experiences—including their attraction to the same sex—to help others. The church needs more godly people who are attracted to the same sex to serve as pastors, elders, and deacons….

This is the future of you clergy staying in the OPC, PCA, SBC, etc. The die is cast. The Revolutionary impulse isn’t something about to happen to you, or that might happen to you if you don’t strap up. In the words of Garet Garret it is “The Revolution that Was.” Because you weren’t watchmen on the walls the Revolutionary expressions of R2K, CRT, Federal Vision, New Perspective on Paul, Cultural Marxism, Side-B sodomy, et. al. have already taken over your denominations.

So what is left to be done for clergy and laymen alike? Pull a Lot and flee for your life and in the words of Donald Thomas Scholz, “Don’t look back.” Let the effeminate soy boys have your denominations. They will die on the vine as the CRCNA has (25% loss in the last 25 years). Cease giving money to your churches so that they can send it up the Denominational food chain. You are only paying for your own burial. Cease sending your children to these damned by God denominational colleges – by doing so you are only communicating your hatred for your children. Do you really want your daughters to be like the Pastor’s wife or your sons to be like the Pastor. (Admit it… you don’t… it’s ok … it’s just you and I talking here.) Quit insisting on sitting under the ministry of these soy boy Clergy – you’re only being processed by all the leftist, nut-less, pinko sermons and Sunday school lessons. Come out from among them and be ye separate.

The visible church is dead and this version of it is not coming back. Good riddance.

The visible church is dead … Long live the Church.

Ellicott On Generational Sin

“We each individually inherit special tendencies to this or that form of evil from the misconduct of our several progenitors.”
 
Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers
Commentary on Exodus 20:5
 
We see here that sinful dispositions and tendencies can be genetically inherited. There was a time that was not a scandalous thing to note among Evangelicals and Reformed. Different people groups can be characterized by a constellation of different besetting sins just as they can be characterized by a constellation of varying character strengths. If several generations of McAtee’s have been drunkards and wife-beaters then it is likely that I, as a McAtee need to take special care about those particular sins since I am genetically predisposed to those sins. This is not to say that sin is only genetic as if sin always = genes. It is to say that sin is not only a matter of environmental considerations. When we look at sinful tendencies in a person’s life we must consider a whole constellation of factors — environment, genetics, and errant thinking to name a few. 
 
Because of this kind of understanding articulated by Ellicott, it was understood that particular family lines, tribes, nations, and races could be generally characterized by not only their sinful weaknesses but also by their ethical strengths as well. In this, there is no materialism, Darwinism, or even genetic fatalism but instead merely a recognition that familial behavior runs in familial lines and that due to genetic considerations. Just as I might get my height from my Fathers so I might get a disposition towards envy or lust. I still remain responsible for my own sin, just as my father was responsible for his sin. To note that sinful habits may run generationally is not to excuse such sins but it is to better understand and deal with them.
 

Now of course the modern Liberal and most modern Christians, unknowingly influenced as they are by the intellectual tradition of Franz Boas believes the above kind of truth to be HERESY. The modern Christian is appalled to think that sinful tendencies can be a genetic phenomenon and that Christians might actually have certain anticipations based on knowing an individual’s familial background according to familiarity with a few generations of that same person’s background.

Some people might claim that the idea that sinful tendencies that run in familial lines would be unfair of God. However, should the pot say to the potter, “Why have you made me this way?” We are and forever shall remain our parent’s children. As Christians, by grace, each generation has to seek to rise above their familial weaknesses while burnishing their familial strengths so that God may wrench from us all the glory possible in our generation.

All of this is captured by proverbs that used to be commonplace such as “good seed makes a good crop” and alternately, “behavior goes to seed.” These kinds of truths were so obvious that our fathers made maxims to live by out of them. Today, observing what I have observed here is considered controversial and even racist.

Pactum Institute Press Release — Christian Education Under Attack From EU

https://www.pactuminstitute.com/press-releases/children-s-right-to-christian-education-is-threatened-by-the-european-commission?fbclid=IwAR3-pcGoBo9JUYCAfnzTb12R679_FNyOlzxD4t35Cmt00V4k7rAmnqlBdUI

The superiority of a Christian education over other philosophies of education is evident in the fact that only in the Christian faith the unity of truth is upheld in that all truths find their coherence in the fact that they are all God-given. Facts, derived from the Latin word “facere”, which means “to create” ultimately derive their meaning from their Creator. Furthermore, the correct interpretation of facts are intrinsically tied to the recognition of Jesus Christ as Logos, in and through Whom all realities find their origin, meaning and purpose. Thus, in an ideal world, all children should receive a Christian education since all alternatives are substandard and inferior. However, given the current state of Western civilization, this ideal will probably, for the time being, remain elusive. Nonetheless, the Pactum Institute is dedicated to promoting the right of every child to receive the best education and so, wherever this right is threatened, the Institute and its members regard it as our duty to vocally speak up against such violations of children’s rights.

Sermonic Tidbit — 26 July 2015

John 6:32 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

We would not have done this text justice though if we were to have stopped here. The fact that the Lord Christ is a greater Moses is only penultimate to the thrust of the Miracle. As we learn later in this chapter the ultimate purpose of the Miracle is to point to Christ as He who is the Bread from Heaven. The Lord Christ is the bread of God who comes down from heaven and gives His life for the World (John 6:33).

This passage reminds us again that there is no life apart from Christ who was broken by God on the Cross as God’s Bread for God’s people. Those who refuse this bread of heaven remain dead from their spiritual malnutrition. Christ was broken that we might be made whole and there is no wholeness for those who remain apart from Christ crucified, risen, and ascended.
Again we are reminded that there is no life outside of Christ. All adherents of other religions must repent before Christ and His work on the Cross. If men remain outside of Christ they remain outside of God’s favor. Because we are pro-Christ we are anti all other religions and proclaim that those religions are death and the adherents of those other religions are but dead men walking.

Trueman Does Heidegger

If reason you cannot stand
The poet might be your man
He’s light in the loafers
plays tune on his shofars
he’s better than the rational caveman

“In such a world, arguments, even irrefutable arguments, will not suffice. We need something more comprehensive, something to capture imaginations. We need a philosophy of undergraduate education that offers visions of beauty, that connects the fields of knowledge our modern world has torn apart and isolated, and that speaks to the human desire for meaning. A good start might be making the study of poetry, that medium which at its best makes human language carry almost more significance than it can bear, a compulsory course for freshmen. If the narrative and aesthetic of the world are gripping, then we must show that ours are more gripping, rooted as they are in real beauty and real truth.”

Carl “Heidegger” Truman

Martin Heidegger was an Existentialist theologian who wrote reams and reams of theology and in one large volume he comes to the end and gives this advice; “Listen to the poet.”

Methinks that Truman is channeling Heidegger who being Existentialist was also at the same time neo-orthodox.

In this paragraph, we read our British Ph.D. make the case of “poetry” over “argumentation.” If he is making an argument for poetry wouldn’t he be better served using poetry to “argue” for poetry? Why provide a rational argument in favor of poetry when poetry is superior to the rational argument?

This idea that somehow the imagination bypasses argumentation and reason is just utter tripe. Even if the imagination “connects” it connects on the basis of some shared univocal point of meaning that was arrived at by the rationality of “line upon line and precept upon precept.”

I have no problem teaching poetry to undergrads. I love poetry. But the argument that poetry is going to circumvent argumentation is an argument that only a Ph.D. could come up with.
