NORMALITY BIAS DECEPTION: Worshiping the Routine of Daily Life

NORMALITY: Worshiping the Routine

“And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth”
–2Thessalonians 2:11-12

CLINGING TO NORMALITY

Most people cling to what is familiar.  It doesn’t matter how much warning they have received or how clear the signs are that their life is about to change.

This strong desire to cling to that which seems familiar DESPITE CLEAR SIGNS THAT IT WILL SOON PASS AWAY is a deception: a denial.

Call it a love; perhaps even a worship of the routine. This extreme devotion of one’s daily life occurred once before: in the time before the flood. The wicked people of that generation were BLINDED to their peril by their slavish concentration on daily, routine tasks.

“They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.”
–Luke 17:27-29

This condition of denial will once again be prevalent and take hold of the generation preceding the return of Jesus Christ.

“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.”
–Luke 17:26

The world and those of the world are fond of shouting “Wake up! Wake up! Why won’t people wake up?”

But there is no self-awakening from a spiritual deception. There is only the doom that falls, seemingly without warning, to those who insist on ignoring the truth.

The world even has a word for sticking one’s head in the sand and pretending something isn’t happening.

Normalcy bias (though we will call it normality bias).

Even though many can see that the world is changing, most would rather pretend it is not. This is especially true if one is generally comfortable in one’s situation.

In this way, a person will seek to avoid ANY changes to his routine. This strong desire to remain in a time and/or place which exists NOWHERE except in the mind of the deceived is a type of delusion.

It’s a form of being in “denial.”

This refusing to acknowledge reality is a form of self-deception.

And the end times are certainly a time of great deception.

History is a record of civilizations and societies which have changed very quickly. Sometimes this is due to war, weather or other “acts of God.”

The end times are one sustained act of God.

Jesus Christ will return and His kingdom with Him.

Whether the world desires or believes it or not.

“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
–2Peter 3:3-4

This will in NO WAY be a normal time.

Is the reader prepared?

Or is the reader denying reality?

Time is Running Out: Today is the Day of Salvation

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
2 Corinthians 4:3

THE GOSPEL

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16

End Times Lies: Good Evil and Evil Evil

End Times LIES: The Never Die Lie“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
–Isaiah 5:20

ANOTHER END TIMES LIE

The lies and deceptions of the enemy are many and varied.

One of the most popular: there are TWO varieties of evil. Good evil and Evil evil.

The anti-hero mainstreamed the whole “bad good guy” idea. This deception is the basis for the tale of good witches and bad witches; for numerous “sword and sorcery” yarns; and various fables about demonic servants (familiar spirits).

Evil is evil: there is NO good or better evil. All degrees of wickedness are wickedness.It is in this way that all manner of wickedness is excused by those who do such deeds.

A person may be lost in his sins but erroneously believe that he is a “good person” because he is kind to animals or he prays on Sundays or he helps his mother take out the garbage. These are the lies wicked and foolish men tell each other when they lie to themselves.

Believing one is a “good person” because one is not as wicked as others is a deception.

“They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.”
–Psalm 14:3

Evil and wickedness are evil. Letting evil slide because it’s not as evil as another evil is a human failing encouraged by Satan.

“The lesser of two evils” and “The enemy of my enemy is my friend” are not biblical thoughts: they are satanic ones.

They are another way to excuse evil.

Man will ultimately be judged by a Perfect Judge, not a human one. Those who are relying on being “better than some and not as bad as others” will be eternally disappointed.

“Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!”
–Isaiah 5:21

Supposing one is “good” because one listens to the lies of the world is not the basis of eternal happiness: it is the foundation of eternal disappointment and torment.

In the times in which we live: let the reader beware.

Time is Running Out: Today is the Day of Salvation

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
2 Corinthians 4:3

FROM TWO YEARS AGO

Why is Christianity Today ignoring Billy Graham’s end times prophecy? – 1- Because Billy Graham is no prophet; and, 2- unless Graham has repented of various public statements he has made over the last several years, Billy is not even a Christian.  Of course, the Christian mass media pretends they don’t know about Graham’s heretical statements that there are ways to heaven other than Jesus–even though he made one of them on CNN’s Larry King before a national audience.  This article continues the pretending.  Although there are claims of Graham’s organization addressing his Freemasonry, Graham himself has never has addressed the issue that we’re aware of.

Christian Homophobia and Westboro Baptist

WESTBORO BAPTIST AND OTHER HATERS
WESTBORO BAPTIST AND OTHER HATERS

At an Internet aggregator called Christian Homophobia, a variety of linked articles purporting to demonstrate that Christians hate homosexuals. The author, one Gerrit Visser, is at an immediate disadvantage due to the title of his site.  There are homophobes and there are Christians, but the term “Christian homophobe” is itself a contradiction in terms.

If the person hates homosexuals, that person is committing as great a sin as the homosexual.  A true Christian is not to exhibit hatred, which is the same as murder in the eyes of God.  A person who has hate in his heart is separated from God.

“Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.”
1 John 3:15

Now, there are the Westboro Baptist folks (“God hates fags“)–who are neither Baptists nor Christians–and other of their ilk who do what they do. Someone is paying the Westboro cult very good money to do what they do–which is to bring reproach to the name of Christ.  But again, they are not Christians.  They are a group of no more than two dozen who profit handsomely from their ungodly behavior.

Christians are commanded to love the homosexual, but they are also commanded to hate sin.  Jesus died for the homosexuals just as he did for all sinners who will turn from their sin and believe on Him.

Just as He loves all of His creation, God does not desire that any should perish.  God loves homosexuals–right up until the moment they die.  Then the Perfect Judge must judge perfectly.  Christians are to tell the homosexual of his sin and, more importantly, that God in His mercy, made a way for them to be free of sin’s shackles through the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ.

Mr. Visser defines his own terms as far as what constitutes a “homophobe.” In so doing, he rejects Biblical authority and creates his own basis for his authority.

“The existence of christian homophobia is fueled by bible interpretation. It is expressed in the condemnation of homosexual behavior. Christian homophobes label the homosexual orientation as sin. As a consequence christian fundamentalists don’t fully accept LGBT identities as categories.”

Ironically, this rejection of Biblical authority places Gerrit Visser on the same level as the Westboro performers.  Perhaps if he tires of running his Christian Homophobia website, Mr. Visser might make a little money on the side by joining the Phelps clan to do a little Westboro-style preaching about hatred?

They both appear to be cut from the same cloth.

MEDIA NARRATIVES ALERT

“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master. “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do. ALL political “news” is narrative.
