Karl Marx was no atheist

I wonder if many young people who revere Karl Marx, the father of modern Socialism, know that not only was he not an atheist, he vehemently hated God. I think so-called Christian Socialists should especially understand this, because it’s very clear from Marx’s writings that he not only believed there was a God but wanted revenge on Him in an almost Miltonesque “Paradise Lost” sort of way. This also helps to explain why Marxist ideology is so dark, divisive, and destructive, which is the opposite of Christ’s message: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10 NIV)

The Culture of Fear (and its antidote)

Did you ever notice that everything about the “woke” culture is based in fear? Their leaders use fear (and shame) to manipulate and control people. They control their followers through fear of being canceled if they say anything not in lockstep with the woke newspeak narrative.

CRT is like a medieval religious cult

John McWhorter says the following about Critical Race Theory (CRT): “It’s incurious and, in it’s way, it’s Medieval…the parallels are almost eery….it’s not a good religion.” Later on, he calls CRT’s influence on our society “a reign of terror.” There are several ways that CRT acts like a Medieval religous cult. We will look at just a few today. First, religious cults appeal to our sense of morality, but then a darker side emerges. Neither their cult leaders, nor their ideology, can be questioned. And they rule over their adherents through fear. Like in Medieval times, you are shunned (canceled) from society for questioning their narrative. McWhorter goes on to say this about CRT:

Superior Freedom

Culture is downstream from the Kingdom of God, not the other way around. What this means is that our identity and influence first must come from Kingdom realities, which will then influence our culture. Yet, many followers of Jesus are more culturally-driven than Kingdom-driven. This is why we need our thinking and way of living reshaped and reformed.

CRT and the new Fascism

“Ironically, not since the Aryan obsession in Germany in the 1930s and 1940s, or South African Apartheid in the second half of the 20th century, has a social movement been so obsessed with race.” This is quote from James Lindsay in the following video that I’m including as a supplement to my last post.

Exposing the CRT race grifters in real time

I’m posting the following conversation because it goes deep into the labryinth of Critical Race Theory (CRT), revealing, in real time, how its academic purveyors manipulate and bully anyone who doesn’t agree with their narrative. It also shows us how we can pushback on these Neo-Marxist activists who push getting CRT in the K-12 classrooms.

Fascism and Communism: two sides of the same coin

“He’s a Fascist! “You’re a Communist!” From listening to the political rhetoric these days you would think that to be a Socialist or Communist is a leftist position and to be Fascist is a far-right position, but you would be wrong. Both Communism and Fascism are forms of Socialism. While their respective ideologues did hate each other, both were collectivist Socialists that were in competition for dominance in the early 20th century. For instance, the NAZIs were the National SOCIALIST Party of Germany.

Surrender Shift

“It’s the inside-outside, upside-down kingdom where you lose to gain and you die to live.” This is a lyric from Misty Edwards’ song, “Servant of All.” While we may give the thought of this a hearty “amen!”, do we understand how it actually works? For when we do, we will begin to understand how to walk in the power and wisdom of God’s endless life.

Our greatest witness

We don’t prove that Christ is real by philosophical argumentation, although that may help our minds sort out what we already believe. Philososphy can only show us why there must be a God, why we continue to exist, but it cannot give us an experience of God. And only our experience of Christ changes us, which is also our greatest witness that He’s real and very much alive.

It’s time to shift our pandemic paradigm

Norway has become the latest country to drop ALL Covid restrictions (see Daily Mail article here), joining an increasing number of other countries. Norway will have no vaccine mandates, no vaccine passports, no masks, no social distancing. Large venues, concerts, parties, sporting events are all allowed, no restrictions on public places or gatherings of any kind.
