When there is no truth, appearances become very important.
The image presented to the outside world becomes the most important thing when that image is all there is.
Which is one reason HOLLYWOOD has always valued “image” above reality. It’s doubted that nowhere in the world was “image” more important to an industry than to Hollywood in the 1930s.
Hollywood’s entire premise has been creating alternate realities–with is another way of presenting lies.
Hollywood has spent much time, effort and money to create well-known euphemisms for “changing perception” and “lies.”
One was the “magic of Hollywood.” There’s no wonder that in Hollywood, the word “glamour” was all-important. It soon became important to the rest of America too. Glamour was the perfect word for Hollywood.
Glamour originally was a term applied to a magical-occult spell that was cast on somebody to make them see something the spell-caster wished them to see, when in fact it was not what it seemed to be. In the late 19th century terminology, a non-magical item used to help create a more attractive appearance gradually became known as ‘a glamour’.
So, glamorous is really the illusion a person presents to the outside world of being something they are not. When Hollywood reporters write of an actor having someone “under their spell,” they probably are not waxing poetic.
“Glamour” is only the tip of the iceberg. To chronicle the true exploits of Hollywood, one would have to submerge oneself into a highly-corrosive bath of the occult. The regular episodes of individual depravity can be easily found by anyone with 15 minutes and an Internet connection.
Listing even the worst of these episodes is beyond the scope–and length–of this article.
For centuries, the reputation of theater and those employed as actors was a disreputable one. Hollywood changed that in a matter of years with a carefully-orchestrated make-over, accomplished with lots of help from the Corporate Media. Corporate Entertainment gave the enemy another important weapon against established biblical truth–alongside the Corporate Media
Suddenly, actors and actresses became respectable–and “glamorous” was more important to Americans than “good character.”
There is no better way of being reminded of the type of person who was drawn into the motion picture industry, than two signs that were featured in a short history of Hollywood’s Knickerbocker Hotel. Both date from about 1915–when the motion picture industry was turning the Hollywood area from rural to glitzy. Both signs were posted by locals.
One sign read “No dogs or actors allowed.”
The other: “Actors pay in advance.”
Americans appear to have been a much better judge of character in 1915 than almost one hundred years later.
“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”
–1John 2:15-16
Hollywood is the embodiment of the world.
Hollywood is all about sex, money and fame: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life.
A few things for church folk to remember while watching a movie, or TV or defending the latest offering from Hollywood as “good clean fun” or “Christian-friendly.”
“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
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3
Make no mistake: many churches LOVE to talk about homosexuality. For most, it’s one of the few behaviors still recognized as sinful by their church-goers. The topic is frequently discussed by those who wish to demonstrate that they are really “Bible-believing Christians.”
But all this merely proves is that one says he dislikes homosexuals: it does nothing about offering those poor souls a way out.
And this is where modern churches show their true colors. Because they refuse to preach the gospel (Although they talk about preaching the gospel endlessly, most do no even know what the gospel is.), they cannot offer the assistance to the homosexual commanded by Jesus Christ.
Is it their pride which makes these church-goers so disobedient?
“For the LORD of hosts will have a day of reckoning Against everyone who is proud and lofty And against everyone who is lifted up, That he may be abased.”
–Isaiah 2:12
“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
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3
Yet there are millions of deceived individuals who will buy (and take to heart) this book because it is marketed as a “Christian” book.
If someone slapped a “Christian” label on a home cannibal kit, there would be churches in America who would be using it in fund-raising.
When The Circle Maker first came out, much was written about its extra-Christian perspective: most of what of what the book teaches cannot be found in the Bible–except when the Bible speaks of judgment and condemnation. Over three years later, many of those warnings are now buried in search results, while unwary church-goers appear as eager as ever to buy anything which claims to be “Christian.”
The Circle Maker is a book much exalted by the world–and by the pagans which gather in buildings we call “churches.” It is the perfect book for the times in which we live: witchcraft, the occult and sorcery are introduced and promoted in the churches as a sort of (false ) “Christianity.”
Those in the churches who know better think they’re being clever and sly. Those who do not know better lack the Holy Spirit discernment to know they are being deceived.
This writer was once in a church where the pastor was raving about The Circle Maker. He then asked if I had heard of it.
“I’m familiar with it.”
“What did you think of it?”
“Oh, it’s occult.”
I was then asked to leave.
“That’s probably a good idea. I thought this was a Bible study, not a satanic book club.”
Where do you draw the line? – The “Circle Maker” is another book dragging pagan practices and beliefs into the Christian Church.
The Circle Maker Heresy: Witchcraft in the Church – At least there’s an outcry over this. Many pagan practices are accepted and embraced as new forms of worship in the post-Christian American church.
“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.

“On Friday, Rick Perry announced that he is dropping out of the presidential race. It’s too bad. This country really needs more candidates like Rick Perry — you know, candidates who will drop out of the presidential race.”
–Jimmy Fallon (from a year ago)
Trump shares results from recent physical on Dr Oz – The only thing more worthless than having a doctor in one’s pocket declaring one is “fit to serve” would be appearing on a TV show and selectively “sharing” results from a recent physical.
“Oh, the heart disease? That’s nothing! I forgot all about that!”
Lest anyone forget, Doc Oz himself declared about eighteen months ago: “It’s not a medical show!”
“Donald Trump taped an appearance on “Dr. Oz” today to discuss his health and his diet, and reportedly told Dr. Oz that he likes fast food because, “At least you know what they’re putting in it.” Then workers at Taco Bell and Arby’s said, “You keep telling yourself that.”
–Jimmy Fallon
“Today Republican candidate Donald Trump decided to clear the air and reveal the results of a recent physical, on “The Dr. Oz Show.” Which is an interesting move. Like for Donald Trump, you know, sure, Dr. Oz is a respected doctor — you know, in the same way that Dr. Dre is a respected doctor.”
–James Corden
“Tomorrow, Hillary Clinton is going to be cleared of all email charges by Judge Judy.”
–James Corden
“Donald Trump taped an episode of “The Dr. Oz Show” today where he . . . told the audience he likes eating fast food because “at least you know what they’re putting in it.” Donald, 11 secret herbs and spices. Their entire marketing campaign is literally based around how you don’t know what’s in it. They won’t even tell you who the real colonel is.”

“The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. Republicans are the party that says government doesn’t work, and then they get elected and prove it.”

“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”

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 the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”

It’s the jobs, stupid: there are precious few and becoming less every day.
By every reliable measure NOT under the control of the government/media, Americans are struggling financially as never before since the Great Depression. But to hear the government/media tell it, Happy Days are Here Again!
“First, we didn’t invade Iraq to bring democracy — but once we overthrew Saddam, we had a view of what should follow,” Rice responded. “If Don and the Pentagon had done their job (after claiming the rights to lead post-war rebuilding—things might have turned out differently).”
“Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.”
—Deuteronomy 4:39
There is NO other god except God Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
Satan, the devil, is a created being, NOT a god–though he and his followers try to confuse that simple point among the unwary.
Satan is called by a LOT of names in the world.
Even the Bible records a number of names for the devil: the great dragon, that old serpent, the devil, Satan, the dragon.
“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
–Revelation 12:9
“And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years”
–Revelation 20:1-2
According to the Bible, Satan has a number of titles as well. The most common being “the prince of this world.”
“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.”
–John 14:30
“Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.”
–John 12:31
“Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.”
–John 16:11
Satan is also called “the prince of the power of the air.”
“Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience”
–Ephesians 2:2
One title Satan does NOT have: the god of this world.
Though his minions in the churches try mightily to elevate the father of lies to that lofty position, Satan is not (and never has been) a god of ANYTHING.
“In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.”
–2Corinthians 4:4
This is virtually the same thing written in Isaiah 6:9-10.
“And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.”
–Isaiah 6:9-10
“Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.”
–John 12:39-40
Satan’s tares in the churches cite 2Corinthians 4:4 as “evidence” the devil is a god, but that verse is referring to God Almighty. This is apparent after reading the last 5-6 verses of 2Corinthians 3 along with the first four verses of 2Corinthians 4.
Nowhere is Satan referred to in those passages.
Satan has ALWAYS craved worship.
God’s Word declares he will be worshiped for three-and-one-half years preceding the climax of human history.
And then he will be bound for a thousand years.
And afterwards, thrown into the lake of fire for eternity.
Some god.
“O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.”
–1Chronicles 17:20
Command and Control, a book written by renowned investigative journalist Eric Schlosser, details how a maintenance accident in a missile silo buried underneath farmland in Damascus, Arkansas, nearly caused a thermonuclear explosion.
However, the linked article is a narrative which uses a media poll/survey, so it could be that Millennials hate pets.
Three-fourths of Americans in their 30s have dogs, while 51 percent have cats, according to a survey released by research firm Mintel. That compares to 50 percent of the overall population with dogs, and 35 percent with cats.
Sept. 11, 2001 was not the first time or even the second time that New York was shaken to its core by a terrorist attack. The first time was September 16, 1920.
Donald Trump is like one of the Kardashians: a pure media creation.
And like the Kardashians, there’s little underneath the thin layer of relentless media promotion: no skills, no character; nothing except the connections which made the media PR campaign possible.
Take away the 24/7-around-the-clock propaganda campaign run by Satan’s Mouthpiece (the Corporate Media) and nothing else props up Mr Trump.
Trump has billions: he could afford to pay for his antics. But the Corporate Media has chosen him to receive billions of free coverage in favorable publicity Right now, even the “unfavorable” Trump coverage is pretty favorable; wait until later.
IF the Corporate Media spent close to two months giving 24/7 coverage to a refrigerator, Frigidaire would be leading the polls right now.
“In a new CNN poll released this morning, Donald Trump is still on top, 32 percent among Republican voters, far ahead of his nearest rival. There’s a reason Donald Trump is on top of the CNN poll and that is because he’s constantly on CNN. If CNN and Fox and MSNBC and everyone ran nonstop coverage of Honey Nut Cheerios we would have a box of cereal running the country.”
–Jimmy Kimmel
Two-thirds of Americans feel they have little or no influence over the actions of the federal government. Forty-five percent say the country’s greatness is ebbing… And a third say people like them are treated unfairly in this country.
Hard to imagine these results when the government/media propaganda was running the other way (for decades).
Here’s the Tea Party citing the “Feds” as the validator of the message contained in the headline.
Originally, the Tea Party whole schtick was that they were opposed to the Feds and didn’t believe what the Feds were saying, right? This is such a ludicrous, crude attempt to manufacture a story. Only those with very little critical thinking skills (or those used to being told what to think) would be taken in by it.
Another national Tea Party group sent a video (via email) purporting to be demonic photos of Obama!
Just a thought, but when the Tea Party was formed, one of its biggest drawing cards was that it was “decentralized” and that the movement couldn’t be controlled because it didn’t have any head. But every day, this writer receives dozens of “alerts” from NATIONAL Tea Party headquarters (at least three different groups) who claim to be speaking for the Tea Party movement.
These national groups are controlled opposition fronts which have funneled the discontent which fueled the Tea Party movement into pot luck dinners, marches, making signs, billboard buys, speakers, letter-writing campaigns, sign-waving parties–in short, any activity to keep people busy at while achieving nothing.
Special K, bath salts, pinky: bad behavior is blamed on these horrible drugs, not the person committing the crimes.
In 1936, American audiences were treated to Reefer Madness; less than a century later, the same drug has been legalized by a growing number of American states.
There IS a problem with drugs. It is not, however, the problem most think.
But cry no any tears for Hillary Clinton: for YEARS she benefited from the media’s one-way press coverage.
But again, these are Corporate Media polls we’re discussing.
It’s very likely Hillary was NEVER popular outside the newsrooms of America’s PR machine–if even there.
NOTE: Lest there be any confusion, Hillary is not really the anti-Trump: both Trump and Hillary are virtually indistinguishable from each other, despite the constant blah-blah-blah to the contrary from the Corporate Media.
IF Trump is selected, he will do exactly as Hillary. Only the Corporate Media noise surrounding him will be different.
IF Hillary is selected, she will do exactly as Trump. Only the Corporate Media noise surrounding her will be different.
HOW much do parents matter? – IF the antichrist state had it’s preferences, parents would exit the picture about eighteen months after the baby was born. The state would then be free from parental interference to indoctrinate the future slave over the next sixteen-and-one-half years as it saw fit.
“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.”
–John 15:19
“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.
Next year, estimates say, the river will flow past the shoreline houses and reach the school, which is the village’s highest point, its community center, and its only source of running water. If the current rate of erosion remains constant, the school—the first in the country to shutter because of climate change—may not make it through 2018.
Another school year, another year of teacher shortages – This golden oldie has been in steady media rotation for the past 40 years. The shortages are always “somewhere else” other than where the applicants seem to be.
It DOES give teachers leverage when salary negotiations come around, however.
