Fact Check: “Christianity” and the Christian Religion is NOT Found in the Bible – The Person Jesus Christ Is

Over 11 years ago I published an article on the English word "Christian," explaining how I had stopped using that term to refer to myself, since it is a term with very many different meanings and understood in probably thousands of different ways. I wrote how the term "Christian" is only found 3 times in all of the New Testament writings, and it is never used by the believers and followers of Jesus Christ to refer to themselves in the New Testament. But as things unfold in the current Post-COVID culture, it is time to update that teaching and expand upon it, showing that the larger term of "Christianity" or the "Christian religion" is found nowhere in the Bible, and is actually a religious cult that is part of the Satanic world system, and that can be used to enslave the masses. So while 11 years ago I wrote: "Should believers of Jesus Christ today use the name “Christian” to describe themselves, even though the earliest disciples did not? There is probably no right or wrong answer to that question." I am not sure that is still true today, in the Post-COVID world, because the word "Christian" and "Christianity" is clearly associated today with being Pro-Pharma and Pro-Vaccine, and therefore Pro-Satan and his world system. COVID has revealed (NOT caused) the very deep corruption in the American Christian Church and its idolatry in serving the ruler of this world, as opposed to serving the current ruling King who sits on the throne in the Kingdom of God.

How Much Longer will the World Continue to Look to Medical Doctors to Save Them?

"The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." (Psalms 23:1-4) These famous words penned by King David are known to many believers around the world, but how many of us actually believe them? My guess is very few, if any, actually believe these simple truths written in Psalm 23, and also expounded upon in so many other places in the Bible, that God is very capable of taking care of our needs, and that the entire needs of the human race were met by the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and his resurrection from the dead. I would guess that most people who claim to believe in the words of Psalm 23 only believe in them when they are not "sick." If they are "sick," then the medical doctors are their "shepherd," and instead of the "rod and staff" of the Good Shepherd Jesus Christ, they look to the stethoscope and the rod of  Asclepius, or the Caduceus, the rod with the serpents intertwined around them, as the symbol and authority for their health.

In Times of Distress Who Can You Turn to for Comfort?

In a recent article I wrote about the need for those of us who know the truth to "stand firm" against the forces of evil, and tell other people the good news that the end will come when Jesus restores everything, defeating Satan and handing the Kingdom over to the Father. I wrote: "And living by these truths makes us enemies of the world system currently ruled by Satan, which means any beliefs we have that make us think we deserve an easy and carefree life, is a lie from Satan himself. The true believer who lives by these truths is ALWAYS a persecuted believer who has to endure great hardship. It has always been that way, and it always will be, until the final end where Christ returns." Does this mean that as we watch the world around us descend into chaos, where many have already suffered or died due to the eugenic practices of the medical mafia and the vaccine cult, and where many more may die and suffer in the days ahead, that we are to just expect that our lives will be filled with stress, anxiety, and extreme sorrow and pain with no hope for relief in this life? No. For the person who truly believes and knows Jesus Christ, we are promised great comfort while we endure extreme sorrow and hardships in this life, and that is what I want to look at in this article. In his second letter to the believers living in the city of Corinth contained in the Bible, Paul wrote: "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows."

The End is Near! Stand Firm!

The news is so gloomy these days, and the future looks so dark, that it is easy to be tempted to give up all hope, especially if you feel all alone and the people around you that you thought you knew, now are against you because you refuse to back down from the truth that at least to you, seems so obvious. So I want to pause for a minute, and just write a message of hope to all of you who feel so alone, and just encourage you that you are NOT alone, and that if you stand firm, brighter days are just ahead.

Fully Vaccinated Franklin Graham Has Heart Surgery for Pericarditis as Samaritan’s Purse Helps Inject People with COVID-19 Shots

This past March we reported that Franklin Graham, the president and CEO of Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, told his 9.6 million Facebook followers that: “I think Jesus Christ would advocate for people using vaccines and medicines,” proving that he is one of the Globalists participating in the distribution of COVID-19 gene altering shots. Franklin Graham was just released from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, where he underwent heart surgery for pericarditis (inflammation and hardening of the sac around the heart that compresses the heart and prevents it from working properly,) a known side effect of the COVID-19 shots. Members of his organization state that he just developed this condition within the "past few months," and that "he had been experiencing shortness of breath for some time." He and his family are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. According to an article published in Politico in July, Franklin Graham is a friend of NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins, Anthony Fauci's boss, and Collins is also considered a "devout" Evangelical Christian who also promotes the COVID-19 shots to Christians. There can be little doubt that Franklin Graham, who inherited the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Empire, and also runs Samaritan's Purse with branches all over the world, is a Corporate Globalist. Samaritan's Purse raked in close to $1 BILLION in revenues in 2020 (just shy of $900 million), and they frequently partner together with the pharmaceutical industry and the medical system to administer COVID-19 shots and provide pop-up clinics. A look at Samaritan's Purse's financial disclosure IRS Form 990 shows that Mr. Graham makes over $700,000 per year of declared income, has 12 other people on staff that make more than $200K a year, has a private jet, and earned $8,286,443 in 2020 from "investment income." With the world on lockdown in 2020 and many businesses failing, what kind of investment could return those kinds of yields? The main industry that saw record growth in revenues in 2020 under President Trump was Big Pharma, of course, thanks to Trump's CARE Act and other stimulus bills that transferred $BILLIONS from the wealth of the middle class in America to Big Pharma. If we were to look at the investment portfolio of Samaritan's Purse, what might we find? Stocks in Pfizer, Moderna, J&J and others?? And what about the Graham family's alleged connection to pedophilia?

Parents Sacrifice Hundreds of Thousands of Children Ages 5 to 11 to the COVID-19 Vaccine Gods This Weekend

Hundreds of thousands of children between the ages of 5 and 11 were sacrificed to the COVID-19 vaccine gods this weekend, getting their first injections as a Satanic ritual, with many of them having this done right in Christian churches. This has to be one of the darkest weekends in our nation's history. Of all the products produced by the Satanic medical system, vaccines have to be the most evil when it comes to children, because it takes a denial of faith in God to trust him to protect your child, and instead trust in a pharmaceutical company, Pfizer, that has a long history of criminal activities, and is probably the most evil company in the world. And yet after paying $BILLIONS in criminal fines over the years for bad drugs that harmed and killed people, not one executive has ever spent a day in jail. If a child has a life-threatening disease or injury, and a parent believes that a certain drug or medication could save their child, there might be an excuse to use a pharmaceutical product from one of these evil drug companies. But when it comes to vaccines, you are saying "I do not trust God to protect my child from a potential future disease, so I am going to participate in a Satanic ritual by allowing a needle to bypass the entire immune system that God created, and inject a poisonous substance into my child infecting them, with the belief that the child's body will respond to the poison and not die, protecting them in the future." Vaccines are probably the only drugs manufactured that do not require sick people to administer them. They are injected into healthy people because of the fear that they might one day catch the disease they are being injected for, as they are patterned after the very lucrative insurance industry which also profits on people's fear. Allowing someone to inject your child with a needle is child abuse, and an act of belief on your part in the demonic world system the Bible teaches us to oppose.

Texas Church Injects Young Children with COVID Shot in Halloween Celebration – Christian Churches Now Working with the CDC to Abuse and Murder Children

Mt. Hebron Missionary Baptist Church in Garland, Texas, is reportedly participating with the Satanic U.S. Government by injecting young children with COVID-19 gene altering shots. CBS 11 is reporting that the church sponsored a Halloween event where nurses were on site to inject young children, and this was even before the shots were given emergency use authorization for children ages 5 to 11. Even worse, the FDA's authorization is for smaller doses for this age group, but nurses at the church allegedly injected young children with the full adult dosage. As I have been documenting since last year, the American Corporate Christian Church is thoroughly corrupt, and part of the Satanic corporate medical system. And now many of them are working with the CDC and local health departments getting paid to run "vaccine clinics" right in their churches, so that children now face abuse and attempted murder when their parents take them to church. If you would like to sacrifice your child by injecting them with a bioweapon, we are listing a few of the many Christian Churches where you can get your child abused. Some of them even have a 2 for 1 deal where you can add the flu shot injected into your child as well. Some churches are going door to door to inject people. And your President Joe Biden truly appreciates all of these pastors and churches helping out with abusing and attempting to murder children with the Pfizer bioweapon shots, as the White House just announced today that so far over 900,000 children between the ages of 5 and 11 have now been injected. I am sure this never would have been possible without the cooperation of the American Christian Corporate Church and their pastors.

Do You Have Blood on Your Hands? Tens of Thousands of Children Age 5 to 11 Injected with Gene Therapy Shots

Tens of thousands of children age 5 to 11 were injected with the Pfizer bioweapon gene therapy shot over the past couple of days. This is truly one of the darkest days in the history of our nation. The pharma-owned corporate media hailed this day as a great achievement. Here is our report, where we deleted the audio of the talking head reporters and health officials, and changed the music to more accurately represent this day. Do you have blood on your hands? Most of these parents have been deceived, and do not know the truth. For those of us who do know the truth, we have a responsibility to warn others. If they reject the truth after sharing it with them, then the blood of their children is solely on their hands, and the hands of those promoting the shots.

America: Land of the Slaves and Home of the Cowards – The Entitlement Majority Call Themselves “Victims”

Francis Scott Key penned the words to the song "The Star-Spangled Banner" in the 1800s that would go on to become the "National Anthem" of the United States, and it ends with the words: "The land of the free, and the home of the brave." I am not sure these words have ever been a true description of life in the United States, but today, here in 2021, those words should read: "The land of the slaves, and the home of the cowards." I never thought I would live to see the day where most Americans would willingly choose slavery over freedom, and then when their choices did not work out the way they thought, rather than own up to their mistake in making the wrong choice, blame the "opposition" party in government instead, all the while raising their voices to claim "I'm a victim!" believing that somehow they are entitled to certain things from their slave masters. But that characterizes the United States of America today.

Healing without Drugs: Western Culture has Lost its Way

For decades now western culture has taken great pride over "western medicine" as a product of modern times and the "age of science." The belief that modern medicine has achieved great success in overcoming historical diseases that prior to the advent of modern medicine plagued and killed humanity is drilled into anyone who grew up in a western country with a western education. Older traditional systems of dealing with health and sickness are thought to be antiquated and inferior, which includes bodies of health information that have been around for many thousands of years in non-western countries, such as "Traditional Chinese Medicine" (TCM) or "Ayurveda" practices in South Asia, mainly in India. If you haven't figured it out yet, the western pharmaceutical-based system of "health" depends upon sick people to earn profits. Healthy people are a major cause of business loss for this system and their products. So for the system to grow, it needs more sick people, not less. And as evil as the current medical system has become, even this system is in the process of failing, and very soon there will be many sick and dying people looking for help, and help will not come from the medical system. What I do in this article is look at alternative forms of healing that have existed for thousands of years, and give hope that true healing can be found outside of the medical system as we race forward towards a "Great Reset" of our society. We must not fear what lies ahead, but embrace it as our destiny, and find our own purpose in what God has called us to do to resist the Satanic world system.

When the World Hates You, You’re a Rebel Standing on the Truth and Proving You Don’t Belong Here

Jesus made it very clear to his followers, both then as well as today, that to follow him was to take a path that leads to persecution and hardship, going against the crowd and having the world hate you, because you represent the "light" that Jesus is in the world, which in turn exposes the evil of the world system, ruled by Satan, the father of lies. Jesus said: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6) A choice now confronts every one of us, and it is most certainly NOT a choice between political parties or ideologies. It is a choice between good and evil, between Satan and the ruler of the Kingdom of Darkness, or Jesus and the ruler of the Kingdom of God. The pretenders, mostly the religious who belong to their churches or religious institutions, will not make it. Because one is not saved by their associations or belief systems. One is only saved by a person, who is The Way, The Truth, and The Life. Knowing about him is not good enough. Satan knows about him too, and that knowledge does not save him. Jesus is the vine, the life source, and as he stated in that upper room discourse, "apart from me you can do nothing." But together with him, we can do EVERYTHING! "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you." Satan knows this, and he fears it. But are there enough true disciples of Jesus Christ who know his power left in the world to make Satan tremble? We're about to find out.

Loyalty to Christ Must Surpass Loyalty to Family: “I Did not Come to Bring Peace, but a Sword” – Jesus

"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law-- a man's enemies will be the members of his own household. Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me." - Jesus (Matthew 10:34-38) Loyalty to Jesus Christ must exceed loyalty to our own family members. This is not a popular teaching in the modern day corporate Christian Church, but the words of Jesus recorded in the Bible are very clear on this matter, as this passage in Matthew chapter 10 clearly shows. Luke's gospel records even stronger language from Jesus: "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life--he cannot be my disciple. And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:26-27) It is easy to see how watered down modern Corporate Christianity has become, as their leaders so willingly obey the State today, urging their members to submit to government authority and line up to get the COVID shots, often times right there in their own churches where they get government kickbacks for injecting people with these Satanic injections. Many of the corporate churches are now becoming COVID-19 vaccine clinics, and if you yourself do not want to take the shots, or do not want your children to take them, the time has now come to leave Corporate Christianity. To remain in Corporate Christianity today, is to risk losing your children if you have children and have no intention of forcing them to take a COVID-19 shot.

Jesus Repeatedly Broke the Law and Told Others to do the Same Thing – The Biblical Basis for Righteous Resistance

Jesus was a lawbreaker. During the days he lived, only "priests" were legally allowed to heal anyone, or declare someone as "healed." So when Jesus began his public ministry and arrived on the scene, he started healing everyone in defiance of the "health laws" of the day. He also continually broke the laws on the "Sabbath," when no one was supposed to work. And as we see from John chapter 5, he told others to break the law also. Jesus knew that these laws were preventing people from being healed, and so he disregarded them. Things are no different today. "Health" is legally defined by medical authorities empowered by the pharmaceutical industry, and government "health" agencies such as the FDA and CDC are the only legal entities allowed to treat and "heal" people. But the entire system is not a "health" system. It is a medical system that enriches those who produce and sell pharmaceutical products. The current Satanic medical system has become more evil than ever before due to COVID protocols that are now forced on patients for economic gain, where real cures are banned. You couldn't pay me to walk into a hospital today. I would prefer to die in my home if my time is up, than to visit one of these killing centers and pay them money to harm or kill me. Jesus is still in the healing business today, and I have trusted him for decades now, long before COVID, and have not purchased health insurance for over 25 years. Those who have trusted and enslaved themselves to the medical system their whole lives, are paying a very hefty price today for their faith in that system, a system that is threatening their jobs, threatening their ability to participate in society, and threatening their very lives.

When the World is Against You – God’s Power to Intervene for Those Who Resist

I have previously written how the United States has become a very evil country, perhaps the most evil country in the world right now, and that God's judgment seems to be imminent. We saw further evidence of just how evil we have become earlier this week when Project Veritas published an interview with a Department of Homeland Security whistleblower who revealed that not only are we allowing known criminals and child sex traffickers to cross the border into this country, we are issuing Employment Authorization Cards so that they can stay in the country legally to work. I have compared our modern times to another period of world history where a great nation was destroyed by God's judgment, the nation of Israel/Judah in 586 BC, and how the prophet Jeremiah stood alone as a prophet in warning the people of imminent disaster, while being mocked by the religious class of his day, and even his own family. The similarities between Israel in the 580s BC and the United States today are striking: child sacrifice, sexual perversion, corrupt religious leaders, the rich and powerful corrupting justice, and deceit and lies being the norm, where the truth is rare. Jeremiah stood alone, but he was proven correct, when Jerusalem was surrounded and starved to death, and then destroyed. I also wrote about one of Jeremiah's contemporaries, Ezekiel, who prophesied in the country of Babylon where he had already been deported to, prior to the fall of Jerusalem, and how he was called to be a "watchman" to warn the people of the coming disaster. In this article, I want to look at another contemporary of Jeremiah and Ezekiel who lived during that time: Daniel. Daniel and a few others were young men who were from the royal family, from the line of King David, who were carried off into captivity in Babylon, and apparently castrated so they could not marry and produce children, and then sent into training to serve in the court of the king of Babylon. The book of Daniel teaches us that even as a minority serving under hostile forces, if we resist evil and tyranny, fearing God more than we fear the tyrants, we can expect God to act supernaturally to overcome evil and protect his own people.

To “Save” America will the Foundation of the Corporate American Christian Church Need to be Destroyed?

I have already written how Christian church "leaders" who are now trying to force their members to get a COVID-19 "vaccination" to participate in their organizations is eerily similar to the principles that divided the New Covenant believers in the Bible, where the "Circumcision Jews" who had believed in Jesus as the Messiah, wanted to force non-Jews, Gentiles, to obey the Law and perform a medical procedure on the males: circumcision. But in this article I am going a step further, and I am claiming that the American Corporate Church is first and foremost an American business, and just as corrupt as other American businesses and institutions, and that the principles of the New Covenant actually nullify most of their activities. The American Christian Church, which would include Catholics, Protestants, Evangelicals, Mormons, etc., has for many years been intertwined with the American medical system, as well as the American Military Industrial Complex, along with all their intelligence agencies as well, such as the CIA, FBI, NSA, etc. America is known worldwide as a "Christian Country," and the vast majority of our population identifies themselves as "Christian." And look at where we are today. We are no different than the ancient Jewish kingdoms that God judged and destroyed. Not only are we just as corrupt as other nations, we are actually MORE corrupt than most, having such notorious distinctions as being the #1 destination for human and child sex trafficking, and killing more innocent civilians through our military than all the "terrorists" in the world combined. Under the New Covenant, there is no need for corporate "churches" or their professional human leaders, such as "priests" or "pastors." We can learn directly from God, because his Word can now be directly "written on our hearts." If we truly believe and experience this, it becomes a huge threat to the multi-TRILLION dollar Christian Church corporate structure. We don't need them!

Belief in COVID “Vaccines” Now Reaching Religious Fervor: The Shot “Reduces Suffering” Before Death

A story out of San Antonio, Texas, shows the absurdity that the belief in COVID injections has now reached. KSAT reported that Yvonne Rodriguez is an only child, and that: "she made sure her parents Patricio and Sylvia Elizondo were vaccinated early on against COVID-19." But now they're both dead. Her mother died 3 months ago, and now her father has just died. Both were reportedly fully vaccinated. Instead of considering the possibility that the vaccine might have contributed to her father's death, or at the very least consider it was ineffective in stopping her parents' deaths, she instead continued to believe in the vaccines, and stated:  “I can’t imagine how much more he would have suffered if he had not gotten the vaccine.” As Dr. Cole so eloquently stated in his presentation last week, "This is no longer science." Let's call this what it really is: it is a religion. It is a system of beliefs based not on science, but on belief in the people in charge of this system, who have taken on the role of priests, and the "gods" of medicine and vaccines. And for all the Christian Churches, Jewish Synagogues, and Muslim Mosques who pretend to believe in God, but are encouraging their members to go out and trust in the vaccines, many even offering them right there in their houses of worship, you are all IDOLATERS.

The American Idolatrous Christian Church is Part of the Satanic New World Order as its Leaders Urge Everyone to get the COVID-19 “Vaccine”

"It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery. Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you. And I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law. You have been severed from Christ, you who are seeking to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. For we through the Spirit, by faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness." (Galatians 5:1-6) These words written by Paul in the First Century, were addressed to a congregation of believers in Jesus Christ who lived in the city of Galatia, which would be in central Turkey today. He was confronting the teaching from a group of leaders who were urging the believers to receive a medical procedure: circumcision. "Circumcision" was the sign under the Old Covenant, instituted by Moses, but not the New Covenant, instituted by Jesus Christ. And he didn't hold back in explaining what the consequences would be if these believers decided to receive this medical procedure: they would become "slaves" again to the system that Christ had saved them out of, and they would be "severed from Christ," "fallen from grace," and Christ would be "of no benefit" to them. Read through these verses again, and replace the word "circumcision" for a different medical procedure being preached today by Christian leaders, COVID-19 shots, and you will have the exact same principle happening today as was happening in the First Century from the Jewish "believers" who were trying to force the non-Jewish believers to receive this "mark" through a medical procedure. "It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery (medical tyranny). Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive (circumcision) a COVID vaccine, Christ will be of no benefit to you. And I testify again to every man who receives (circumcision) a COVID vaccine, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law (everything the medical state dictates). You have been severed from Christ, you who are seeking to be (justified by law) healed by pharmakeia/sorcery; you have fallen from grace. For we through the Spirit, by faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness (healing and deliverance from disease by Christ, not by pharmakeia/sorcery)."

Are Your Friends and Family Mocking You for Building an “Ark” in Preparation for What is Coming?

"As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away." (Jesus - Matthew 24:37-39) Are you feeling all alone these days as you watch the Satanic Globalists move closer and closer each day to implementing their plan of installing a New World Order that drastically reduces the world's population, and collapses the world's financial system to begin the Great Reset, while everyone around you seems blind to these realities and just continues to live their lives as if everything is just going to "return to normal?" Are you "building your ark" preparing for the day when you may not be able to participate in society without fully embracing the "mark of the beast" by getting one of the COVID-19 injections, while the insanity of everyone around you sees you as the one who is "crazy" as you refuse to participate in all the COVID nonsense? If this is what you are feeling right now, take heart, and stand firm. Because this is how the world treated Noah as he obeyed the voice of God and built an ark to save humanity and most of the animal kingdom, while he warned people of God's impending judgment and the coming of a world-wide flood in the ancient world, where up until that point it had never rained. Nobody listened to him to build their own ark, which would have been far easier to build than the one Noah was building to also save the animal kingdom, just to save themselves and their families, and they paid the ultimate price for mocking a righteous man who was going against the crowd in obedience to what God had told him. When Jesus walked the earth he warned his followers that the same thing that happened in the days of Noah preceding the flood, would be happening just prior to his coming back to earth to judge the world, where people would act as if tomorrow would be the same as any other day, failing to recognize the times and season they were living through.

Nationalism and the Ten Commandments – Patriotism or Idolatry? “Liberty” or Slavery?

Pretty much every country on earth today has a flag representing that country, and children are taught from the earliest ages, usually through public or religious education, to respect and honor that flag, often by saluting it. In the United States pretty much every school for children, whether public or private, teaches their students to "Pledge Allegiance" to the flag of the United States of America, while holding their hand over their heart. The original Pledge of Allegiance was written by a 37-year-old Baptist Christian Minister named Francis Bellamy in 1892. So why am I spending time writing about this today? Because our country is as divided as ever, placing people into groups and labeling them so everyone can keep fighting each other rather than fighting the Globalists who are dead-set on enslaving us and murdering us, and the label "Patriot" is a classification I see every single day in my newsfeed, mainly among the Christian Right and Trump supporters. The term "patriot" today can pretty much be weaponized against anyone who disagrees with the narrative of the day that the State wants one to believe and obey, which today includes obeying all COVID-19 restrictions, and being a "good patriot" and getting the "vaccine" to protect everyone else. For the Christian Right, displaying the flag on national holidays like the 4th of July and Memorial Day is the "Christian" thing to do, and failing to do so is seen as a moral failure. But I absolutely REFUSE to pledge my allegiance to the American flag, not for political reasons, but because to do so is IDOLATRY.

Is God Calling you to be a “Watchman” to Warn Others of What is Coming?

I recently published a commentary on the ministry of Jeremiah, a prophet in the 6th Century B.C. who was called by God to warn people in the capital city of the Jewish Empire, Jerusalem, of pending judgement and disaster that God was about to unleash in judgment against them. I wrote how the moral decay of the Jewish Empire mirrored the moral decay of the United States today, and that if anything, the United States is probably more evil today than the Jewish Empire that was completely destroyed in 586 B.C. Jeremiah was referred to as the “weeping prophet,” because the visions of the future that awaited his country and his people were so horrible, it almost drove him mad. Everyone abandoned him, including family members, and it almost cost him his life to deliver the message that God had given him to bring to the rulers and population of his country, because it was not a message of hope that they wanted to hear, but a message of doom, where a significant majority of the population were about to die horrible deaths. And while Jeremiah prophesied from the Jewish capital of Jerusalem, there were many people who had already been captured and taken away into captivity in Babylon, including the then-king of Israel, and members of the royal family who were no longer living in Jerusalem. One of those people was a priest named Ezekiel, who like Jeremiah was called by God to warn his people that judgement was imminent, and that there was no "returning to normal" as so many false prophets who were living in Babylon were predicting, giving false hope to the people living in captivity that soon they would be able to return home and to their former way of life. Ezekiel was called by God to be a "watchman," because he knew the truth, and God made it clear that if he did not tell the truth, even in the face of hostile opposition, that when judgment came and many people died horrible deaths, that their blood would also be on Ezekiel's hands if he shrank back in fear and failed to warn the people. Is God calling you to be a watchman today?
