Promoting the Lesser Evil

CREATING A MOSTLY-IMAGINARY GREATER EVIL TO PROMOTE A LESSER EVIL

Apparently one of the lessons taught in Satan 101 is the one about how the media/entertainment can justify wickedness.

The most obvious way this occurs is to create something VERY EVIL and then set the wicked to fight this evil, making the wicked the “good guys” or “the heroes.”

This is a common trick of misdirection; it happens over and over and over again.

What is the GREATER EVIL which makes the lesser evil appear to be benevolent and good?

Zombies and the “undead” are one such terror used. Any violent action can be justified against such an obvious GREATER EVIL.

Currently, in the popular TV series “Game of Thrones,” zombies are used to make dragons, those who command them and other demonic characters appear heroic.

Tolkein’s Lord of the Rings used this technique to great effect, using Sauron–and his assorted orcs. ogres and trolls–as the “Big Bad Guy.” Elves and other demonic beings, along with sorcerers, wizards and other wielders of demonic “magic,” then became the “heroes” for battling against the Big Bad.

Every “comic book movie” made is more of the same: the “heroes” (with obvious demonic “superpowers” battle against a Super-Villain-of-the-Week. The various S-V-O-T-W is quite evil, making the demonic look very heroic.

Every “sword and sorcery” story uses this technique of inventing a GREATER EVIL for the wicked to fight against, making their triumph appear “heroic.” And of course, whatever tactic is used to triumph over the Greater Evil is a good tactic–no matter how wicked it may be.

In this way, the taking of human life is justified–as long as it is in service to defeating the Greater Evil.

Almost every science fiction story–along with every real-life government story/narrative–also uses this technique to one degree or another.

In this manner, Satan’s Mouthpiece promotes the LESSER EVIL and wickedness of the world as a heroic “choice” against a GREATER EVIL.

In this manner, the LESSER EVIL is promoted–and eventually viewed by the public–as a “savior.”

The technique has been used for years and will continue to be used until it is no longer needed.

Just another lesson from Satan 101.

DOES the reader believe that the “end justifies the means?”

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“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

The Thankless Warning of the Deceived

“But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

“And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.”
–Mark 13:32-27

Recently, the topic of warning the deceived was visited.

The following observations were made:

The whole world is deceived;
Warning the deceived has little effect, as deception is a spiritual condition;
The few doing the warning KNOW that God’s Word will be almost totally ignored in the end times; and,
Trying to alert the deceived to their coming destruction can be tiresome at times.

THEN, the following questions were asked.

“You believe that practically all men are deceived?”

The answer was “Yes.”

The discussion continued.

“Would you say that warning the deceived is a thankless task?”

“Yes, of course.”

“IF it is mostly ineffective and thankless, then why do it?”

“Because we do not know which individuals will respond. We know very few will heed these warnings, but nevertheless, we are to warn the many.

Besides, one does not do it for the thanks.”

Most do NOT heed the end times warnings of God’s Word.

Even so, the warning will continue.

Even as most do not heed these admonitions.

Because end times men are almost universally deceived.

IF they heeded the warnings from the Word of God, they would NOT be among the deceived.

And there would be no reason to warn them.

“Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

“He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.”
–Ezekiel 33:2-6

DOES the reader HEED the warnings from the Word of God?

DOES the reader KNOW what the warnings from the Word of God are?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

Promoting the Dragon

“And the great dragon…that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world”
–Revelation 12:9

One of the many ways one can tell it is the last days: a steady promotion of dragons has become the norm.

The last days before the return of Jesus Christ is the time of the dragon, when Satan reaches the heights of his power over deceived man.

So it makes sense that in 2018, a great many things are named after dragons.

In addition, many movie/TV plots feature dragons as benevolent beings who befriend the good and take vengeance on the wicked.

So, a dragon is increasingly viewed as something to be desired.

In fact, as far as media and popular entertainment are concerned, it seems as if never is heard a discouraging word–at least about dragons.

But this non-stop dragon promotion has an end: the return of Jesus Christ.

Until then, the reader can expect to hear a great deal more about dragons.

“And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,”
–Revelation 20:2

DOES the reader imagine to have a fondness for dragons?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

Inhuman?

“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.”
–Romans 3:10-12

Over the years, it has become popular to label very bad behaviors “inhuman.”

inhuman – Of or pertaining to inhumanity and the indifferently cruel, sadistic or barbaric behavior it brings.

When one uses the words “inhuman,” one is using a word which describes actions and behavior so full of cruelty and dastardly intent that they are supposedly foreign to humans.

However, one only need ask the question, What animal is the only one guilty of such “inhuman” acts or behaviors?

Of course, the answer is man–and only man.

Who, it might be pointed out, is fully human.

History and literature is full of stories of the very wicked (Vlad the Impaler, Sauron, Adolf Hitler, Nero, White Witch).

However, contrary to popular entertainment–and other popular indoctrination–EVERY man is corrupt, lost and fallen.

ALL men.

“They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.”
–Psalms 14:1-3

DOES the reader believe he is a “good person“?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.
