We Decided to Convert the Enemy by Becoming a Watered-Down Version of the Enemy

One startling truth about the past 60 years of American social life is the collapse of Mainline Protestantism. In 1965, more than 50 percent of Americans belonged to the country’s historic Protestant congregations. Now less than 10 percent do, and that number continues to drop.
The second startling truth about the past 60 years is how the Evangelical movement, which was designed to be a via media between Mainline Protestantism and Fundamentalism, has completely capitulated to the old mindset of Mainline Protestantism. Indeed, one could even say that Mainline Protestantism lives on in Evangelicalism.

One suspects, as one looks to the future, that the new movement of “Neo-Calvinism” as the new via media between Old Line Historic Calvinism and Evangelicalism will likewise fail. It’s leaders show no more promise than the Harold J. Ockenga’s and D. Martyn Lloyd Jones’ of old, who were so instrumental in forming Evangelicalism.

The only answer is to quit trying to form movements which keep trying to keep one foot in the enemy camp. Whether we consider the Mainline Protestantism of old, or the Evangelical response, or the current Neo-Calvinism, what we see is that the attempt to present ourselves as reasonable to the enemy never ends well.

These movements are destroying the church in their quest to reach the lost. In seeking converts they are only giving unbelief a patina of Christian respectability.

Sundry Quotes from My Reading Over the Years on 31 March

I have a file system where I store choice quotes from my reading. It files my quotes according to the date. So, on every day of the calendar year I have a list of quotes from whatever I was reading on that date in that particular year. Below are just a few of the quotes from my reading over the years on 31 March.

“Show me the individual and I’ll show you the crime.”

Lavrentiy Beria
Head of Stalin’s Secret Police

___

“So much so did the Southern ministers stir up the people against tyranny and wickedness, that one Yankee critic said he believed that the unmitigated set of villains in the South were the Methodists Baptists, Presbyterian, and Episcopal all talking secession, drinking mean liquor, and advocating the cause of Jeff Davis and the Devil. Every one of the officers of one Texas regiment was made up entirely of Methodist ministers”

Pastor John Weaver

___

“For such a mongrel between a pig and puppy, begotten by a wild boar on a bitch wolf, never before in any age of the world was suffered the poltroonery of mankind, to run such a career of mischief. Call it then the Age of Paine.”

John Adams

__

“If an offense comes out of the truth, it is better that the offense come than that the truth shall be concealed.”

St. Jerome

___

Alfred Milner’s advice to the rulers in Britain in the context of outrage over the Boer War and the treatment of civilians,

“Ignore the screamers.”

Milner was the point man for the Anglo-Int’l Money elite.

“All I Want for Christmas is White Genocide.”

“To clarify: when the whites were massacred during the Haitian revolution, that was a good thing indeed.”

George Ciccariello-Maher

Associate professor of politics and global studies wrote — Drexel University

____

A few years ago, I wrote a book about the rise of a new educated class, the people with 60’s values and 90’s money who go to Starbucks, shop at Whole Foods and drive Volvos. A woman came up to me after one of my book talks and said, “You realize what you’re talking about is the Jews taking over America.”

My eyes bugged out, but then I realized that she was Jewish and she knew I was, too, and between us we could acknowledge there’s a lot of truth in that statement. For the Jews were the vanguard of a social movement that over the course of the 20th century transformed the American university system and the nature of the American elite.

“The goal of the Rockefellers is world government, combining capitalism and Communism under the same tent. Do I mean conspiracy? Yes, I do. I am convinced of such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent.”

US Congressman Larry Patton McDonald

___

“The man was admirable. He never gave in one inch to anyone. He never bowed his head. It was not in him to trim or compromise, to accept any peace that was less than triumph. He was a glorious enemy because he was completely open and direct in his angers and hatreds. He stood for something and everyone knew what it was.”

Dostoevsky & McAtee on Egalitarianism

The radical declares,

“Everyone belongs to all, and all belongs to everyone. All are slaves and equal in their slavery… Slaves are bound to be equal. Without despotism there has never been either freedom or equality, but in the herd there is bound to be equality…. The moment you have family ties or love you get the desire for property. We will destroy that desire; we’ll make use of drunkenness, slander, spying; we’ll make use of incredible corruption; we’ll stifle every genius in its infancy. We’ll reduce all to a common denominator!

Complete equality!”

The Possessed
Fydor Dostoevsky

Dostoevsky was a 19th century Russian writer who explored the human psyche, particularly as that psyche was conditioned by ideology and religion. In the quote above we find that Dostoevsky understood the nascent proto-Marxist type ideology which he believed were Demon like ideas from Western Europe that was possessing Russia.

It is interesting that even in 1873 Russia, Dostoevsky could identify the heart of collectivism that remains with us yet today. Dostoevsky understood that the end of equality, absolutized, is slavery….

Without Biblical distinctions regarding gender, roles, racial/ethnic groups, and authority structure, we will be amalgamated into the herd reality that Dostoevsky warns about. It will be a herd reality where a few elites are, in essence, the Farmers over the undistinguished and undifferentiated mass herd. Those who advocate complete equality in terms of “equality of identity” are the enemy and they are the enemy because Scripture identifies them as such. They are the enemy who overthrow the 5th commandment where a distinction and hierarchy of parents is required before they can be honored. They are the enemy who overthrow the great commission where a distinction of nations is required before those nations can be baptized, discipled and taught to observe all things taught by Christ. They are the enemy who overthrow Galatians 3:28 where a existing distinction between Jews and Gentiles, Slave and Free, Men and Women, must exist before there can be comforted that all can be justified in Christ. They are the enemy who overthrow the 9th commandment where a distinction must exist between what is my property and what is not my property before any forbidding of theft can make sense. Egalitarianism is the enemy and egalitarians are the enemy precisely because their egalitarianism strikes at the heart of God’s revelation. Keep in mind that the ultimate goal of the Father of egalitarianism is to erase the distinction and hierarchy between the Creator and the creature. They desire to make God and man a common denominator. That is the ultimate distinction that is under attack in all of these penultimate battles.

There Is No Loyal Opposition

“Even when Asquith and Balfour were leaders of supposedly diametrically opposed parties, Balfour regularly dined with the Asquiths. He frequently joked that he had champagne dinners at Asquith’s before going on to the House of Commons to verbally attack his host. Ludicrous as this was, it served to highlight the hypocrisy of their public altercations in Parliament, where in matters relating to Secret Elite policy they supped from the same bowl.”

Docherty & MacGregor
Hidden History — pg. 100

Understand that what is being said here is that at the turn of the 20th century it didn’t matter if you voted Liberal Asquith or Conservative Balfour you were going to get the same policy where it mattered most because the International Money Interest were pulling the strings of each.

Thus, it is easy to see that the same remains true today when considering Republican or Democrat. On the issues that matter most and on those issues that people gnash their teeth over one can be sure that those are being controlled by the International Money Interest and it is irrelevant what politicians are seated in what positions.

This ought to be obvious with Trump’s behavior. He campaigned and ran on one set of promises but once he achieved office, he reverted to the same old Liberal / Neo-con playbook. More war. More inflation. Less emphasis on deporting tens of millions of people. Now we have censorship and greater surveillance on the horizon.

I get to say … “I told you so.” I told people that Trump was not any different than those who went before him. This is why voting doesn’t matter unless you think voting for who gets to be the figure-head matters. It is inconsequential in the end who gets elected. They are all run by the money interest. They are all bought and paid for by the Jews. As the quote indicates that has been true for over 100 years now.

WOKE Has Given Us Gender Neutral “Theybies” …. Baptists Have Long Given Us Religious Neutral Babies

“Theybies” (Rhymes with Babies)

Theybies are babies that are being raised in a gender-neutral environment to defend against gender socialization. The purpose of this parenting strategy is to not push children into gender stereotypes or roles and let them choose what to become.

This is merely Baptist thinking continuing on into gender. I mean compare Baptist reasoning to “Theybie” reasoning,

Baptists are those who raise babies in a covenant-neutral environment to defend against their children being raised with the conviction that they are Christian. The purpose of this covenant-less strategy is to not push children into a covenant commitment so to let them choose what to become in terms of their religion.
