“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.”
–Matthew 24:3-4
“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.”
—Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)
Indoctrination is a daily part of modern everyday living.
The reader is no doubt familiar with the idea of “indoctrination.”
Most moderns have a sense that the word is a parallel to the word, “programmed.”
Program – “to predetermine the thinking, behavior, or operations of as if by computer.”
In addition, there is a suggestion that to be indoctrinated is to be mostly unaware that such indoctrination is happening–such as with political propaganda or the level of indoctrination which takes place in advertising (which has nothing to do with selling a particular product).
Though indoctrination occurs almost minute-by-minute in the modern world (why else does the reader suppose so many are so obsessed with smartphones and other connected portable devices?), most appear to be unaware that such programming of their thoughts and decisions is taking place.
Many suppose themselves too smart or clever to be indoctrinated without their consent. However, indoctrination, propaganda and programming take place every day, day after day, and most never raise a word in protest.
End times indoctrination is very important for Satan to achieve his power on earth for forty-two months. In the decades after Jesus’ crucifixion, Christianity has been steadily pushed to the side mentally and emotionally by various propaganda campaigns–particularly in the past 50 years.
“Who are the men, who, without our realizing it, give us our ideas, tell us whom to admire and whom to despise, what to believe about the ownership of public utilities .. about immigration who tell us how our houses should be designed, what furniture we should put into them, what menus we should serve at our table, what kind of shirts we must wear, what sports we should indulge in, what plays we should see, what charities we should support, what pictures we should admire, what slang we should affect, what jokes we should laugh at?”
—Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)
There are several ways readers can KNOW how effective even low-level indoctrination of the most basic sort can be.
Schools are a main source of basic indoctrination. The reason so many educational professionals seem so blasé to charges of “bad schools” and the effects of sub-standard schooling is because learning information is NOT their primary concern (contrary to what most parents believe): school is about being indoctrinated so that each person leaves school programmed to fit into a heavily-programmed society.

For the end times society and those who call the shots, indoctrination is a necessary tool to control the potentially unwieldy masses of men.
High schools are an example of the power of indoctrination.
At a time when most of the youth believe themselves to be highly individualistic–when most youths are striving to establish themselves as a person–the youth actually move and act very much as a herd (dressing the same way; eating the same foods; valuing the same things; condemning the same behaviors).
At the time of their life when most young people are attempting to show that they are their “own people,” they exhibit a very high degree of conformity. In fact, nothing appears to be so valued among this group of “free thinkers” than CONFORMING to the herd.
This is largely due to indoctrination they receive every day from school.
Likewise, modern man has no idea how much his life is shaped by the opinions, desires and deceptions of other men.
“Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way round, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise.”

End times indoctrination is a deception–a very large one.
End times indoctrination helps create a false reality which deceives all who are unaware of it surrounding their lives.
End times indoctrination is also a daily fact of life.
Primarily because end times indoctrination has been successful beyond even Satan’s wildest hopes.

“There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda or brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods. And this seems to be the final revolution”
—Aldous Huxley, Speech at Berkeley, The Ultimate Revolution (1962)

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
