But don’t worry, I’m sure he’ll get Mexico to pay for this one, too.”

QUOTES: A Few Thoughts on Voting
“The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
—Winston Churchill
Others might insist that a five-minute conversation with one of the political puppets is the best argument against democracy.
Things of This World: Faith and Trust in Politics
“But actually, he thought as he readjusted the Ministry of Plenty’s figures, it was not even forgery. It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another. Most of the material that you were dealing with had no connection with anything in the real world, not even the kind of connection that is contained in a direct lie. Statistics were just as much a fantasy in their original version as in their rectified version. A great deal of time you were expected to make them up out of your head.”
–On changing government statistics – George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four
Do you believe the media? Then why do you believe their lying polls?
“Political campaigns today are all side shows, all honors, all bombast, glitter, and speeches. These are for the most part unrelated to the main business of studying the party scientifically, of supplying the public with party, candidate, platform, and performance, and selling the public these ideas and products.”
—Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)

“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.”

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 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.”

THE MODERN LIFE: A LIFE KEPT BUSY BY DISTRACTIONS
“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?”
–Matthew 16:24-26
Does the modern man or woman exist who does NOT complain about being too busy?
“I don’t know where I’ll find the time!”
“I’m really slammed. I mean REALLY!”
“I don’t know when I’ll be free!”
BUT MAYBE moderns aren’t quite as busy as they pretend?
MAYBE many moderns believe that being busy is a sign of being important?
MAYBE moderns feel that being busy is a sign that their lives are productive and full of meaningful work?
MAYBE some moderns figure that saying they are very busy is one way to keep friends, family, neighbors and associates from making requests on their time?
IF one was to examine the so-called “busy lives” of modern man, he would likely find three groups.
- A great many who claim they are busy, but are not.
- A very small number who are actually busy with something that needs doing; something important.
- A very sizable group who look busy by attending to distractions (those tasks they WANT or DESIRE to do–no matter what they may claim to others).
How many of those flustered, “busy” people occupy themselves with various time-killing activities?
Game shows on TV, crossword puzzles, gardening, fixing up those things others refer to as “junk,” tending to any number of those items moderns collect, music…
Distractions: because when a modern claims he is busy, any old thing will do.
This is all mentioned because IF those of the world knew what was REALLY important; what REALLY mattered, they would drop their many distractions–as well as even more important events–to ensure that their labor be at MEANINGFUL (kingdom of heaven; God) work–in both this world and the next.
“And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”

A SIMPLE COMMAND
“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.”
–James 1:27
It’s a busy world.
One simple command for believers which is often forgotten is the directive found in James 1:27 (and elsewhere in the Bible) to visit widows and orphans.
In a recent discussion, it was pointed out: “Widows have had a hard time of it because so many families have not fulfilled their family duties.”
“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
–Matthew 24:12
The comfort of companionship to someone who is alone is a blessing which many not be appreciated by those who do not lack such comforts.
Be obedient.
Visit (this includes comforting and counseling) widows and orphans. And, if at all possible, visit those most in need.
It’s a busy world.
HOWEVER, the world will still be busy when returning to it after spending a little time with someone who appreciates the companionship.
“Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.”
–Isaiah 1:17

Everyone LOVES to hear and see DRAMA, right?
And what is more dramatic than an apparent feud among the beautiful people, right?
Particularly if the “feud” is between celebrities, politicos or royal nabobs?
IN FACT, the rich and celebrated almost never disagree: they engage in feuds–sometimes for decades after they have ceased being celebrated for anything else.
What would the beautiful people do with themselves if not for their never-ending feuds?
Satan’s Mouthpiece (the Corporate Media) has always had a problem: what to do when too many of the rich and celebrated have NOTHING “newsworthy” to do. When the media gets tired of reporting what the rich and celebrated are wearing, they turn to the tried-and-true method of of fake “feuds” to generate cheap, plastic “news.”
One popular singer’s entire marketing campaign over the years seems to have been based on engaging in one “feud” after another. But, as the “victims” appear to be primarily the singer’s “fans,” it’s hard to get too worked up over the ruse.
Sports, politics and celebrity culture, European royalty–wherever the rich and celebrated congregate: these are the arenas where readers can most often find stories of “feuds.”
Oh–and pro wrestling…
One can depend on those who labor for the mystery of iniquity to act, in not only an EVIL manner, but also in a very repetitive one as well.
Case in point: when two followers of Satan are working together, one of the first things they do is establish that they 1-do not like each other; 2- they hate each other; or, 3- are fighting against one another.
Democrats and Republicans, Russia and the USA, members of the same family who toil together for evil ends, famous celebrities who are “feuding” with each other: it happens so often, one occasionally has to wonder, “Does Satan have a university or school where he teaches his followers these tricks?”

TOO SMART?
Flattery will allow one to go many places.
One of the world’s oldest tricks–used to persuade readers/listeners to change their minds–is the one where the person is told they are “too smart” to believe what they believe. The clear implication being that only stupid people would hold that particular belief–whatever it may be.
This tactic was brought to mind recently when memories of a local preacher (who was a nice guy, and therefore, a very effective false teacher) came to mind. This pulpit wolf would utter some of the most UNBIBLICAL statements. If there were any objections or misgivings, he would repeat his original statement and then add (to the unconvinced one) ” You’re too smart to not believe that. Come on! You’re an intelligent person: you CAN’T be serious!”
He would then keep repeating his original, outrageous statement until all of those with any second thoughts had quieted down.
IF the man was directly challenged over something he said, he would almost always resort to “You can’t tell me you believe that! You’re too smart a man (or woman)!”
In this manner, the local false teacher (who was a really nice guy) kept his congregation in line for years. Essentially, the man beat his flock into submission with flattery and appeals to their intelligence (and to what OTHERS might think of their mental prowess).
In much the same manner, modern man has been told he is TOO SMART to believe the Bible.
Modern man has been repeatedly told he is too sophisticated to believe in an invisible creator in the sky.
Modern man has been herded into a certain set of beliefs by the media/education/science/culture/the world’s assumption that whatever is of God or Jesus Christ is something that only simple-minded knuckle draggers would place any stock in.
Basically, modern man has been indoctrinated that he has too much worldly knowledge to believe the simple truth.
And the constant repetition of how smart modern man is begins at an EARLY age.
Children go to school, they are not taught even the basics of elementary subjects–things their grandparents and parents both knew–and YET modern children are told almost every day how clever, how ingenious, how SMART they are.
And then the child is handed a trophy or a ribbon or a certificate for being “who he is.”
So, the next time the reader is told how SMART he is, MAYBE someone is just trying to be nice.
MAYBE, the reader IS brilliant.
But more likely, the reader is being set up to believe something contrary to what he already believes.
Flattery will take a person a LOT of places.
It will even take the unwary down a path of slippery deception.

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.

HOPE!
Erie’s New American Dream –HOPE! is a booming market.
Especially in places which have very little REAL hopes.
Over the years, these types of stories have littered the pages of the Corporate Media, both major media and the local media.
When the manufacturing jobs first left, it was TOURISM! which was going to “save” the Rust Belt.
In some states where it was legalized, GAMBLING! was the “savior” to the loss of good-paying manufacturing jobs.
Sometimes, it’s a NEW! (usually service-related) company which will provide JOBS, JOBS, JOBS!
Sometimes, a new “discovery” or technology is offered as the reason the people should HOPE!
Occasionally, it some type of tax-fueled PONZI SCHEME which is offered as a “way out.”
Many times, when the political puppets running these places run out of ideas, they turn to GOVERNMENT! as the “answer” to their problems.
At times, it’s a combination of two or more or the above.
ALL of these so-called “solutions” are HEAVILY promoted as “hope” for the struggling masses (many of whom buy into these conspiracy theories of prosperity). There are lots of optimistic consultants and experts (paid quite handsomely from taxes) and fantastic-looking drawings, blueprints and artist’s conceptions–which are VERY impressive. The taxpayer-funded “;economic development’ weenies” are ALWAYS available to talk up the possibilities to the breathless press.
Everyone in office or who stands to benefit jumps on the bandwagon, huckstering for the “salvation.”
Any who advise caution or who see through the endless “economic development” schemes are shouted down.
Who wants rain on this coming economic juggernaut’s (whatever it is supposed to be) parade?
A check back 10-20 years later reveals very, very few success stories and most of these Rust Belt cities are shells of their former selves with sin and government offices the only signs of life.
Those who made the lavish promises are, many times, LONG GONE. The Economic Development shills are nowhere to be found–unless they are promoting another game.
The cities are more in debt and the only ones crying are the taxpayers.
Because these scams NEVER stop.
BLOOD MOONS MANIA
There’s a Bad Moon Rising – Um… I Mean There are Blood Moons Coming! – Did Jesus warn us of blood moons?
Actually, he did.
“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.”
–Matthew 24:4More invented signs and prophecy from the Modern American Prophecy Industry.
One place this is originating is TV preacher JOHN HAGEE.
The same John Hagee who preaches that there is more than one way to heaven.
The same John Hagee who claims that Jews should NOT be told about Jesus because they are saved a different way.
The same John Hagee who claims that Jesus did not say He was the Messiah.
It is not credible to claim one is led by the Holy Spirit and be a John Hagee devotee.
Still, Hagee remains popular with the tares and counterfeits.

THERE’S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO PROMOTE THE NEW AGE
Constance Cumbey has made a name for herself as an investigative writer whose claim to fame is exposing the secrets of the New Age.
However, those who carefully read Cumbey immediately realize she offers something besides revelations of the New Agers–a great deal more.
Cumbey is a spinner of narratives for the same forces she purports to expose, either wittingly or not.
In her book, The Staging of the New Age Messiah, Ms. Cumbey went to a great deal of trouble to set up her narrative of a New Age conspiracy which is feverishly working to bring about a “messiah” who the Bible calls the “man of sin.” She includes her reasons why this conspiracy should want to help fulfill the Bible’s prophecy–and make no mistake: there is a conspiracy. The Bible speaks of it; and, this cabal does ceaselessly labor to bring about the fulfillment of end times prophecy.
However, any reader hoping to get to the bottom of end times questions by consulting Cumbey will find the truth elusive at best. Cumbey weaves her narrative tapestry using strands of psychology, self-fulfilling prophecy and more importantly, the words of the New Age gurus themselves.
Which brings up a question.
How does one go about convincing the reader that the New Age truly is the epitome of end times deviousness while at the same time primarily offering as proof the lying words of the New Age itself?
That’s the schtick of Constance Cumbey: trust me because I have the truth on the New Age from the lying mouths of the deceptive New Agers themselves. It’s a recipe for more deception and that’s what the reader is in for. Nevertheless, she still leaves out a great deal and what she doesn’t leave out, she conceals behind her narrative wall.
Exactly who desires the appearance of the man of sin, for what purposes and what the Bible says about it all, is covered in her noxious smog of yarns, cunningly devised fables and cleverly-constructed counterfeits. Those who take what she has written at face value will come away convinced that the New Age is a dangerous crew. And while that may be true on the surface, the New Age is NOT the mystery of iniquity but only a small cog in its great machinery of deception.
Again, the New Age is dangerous.
For a counterfeit.
“For the mystery of iniquity doth already work”
—2 Thessalonians 2:7
One only has to remember that if the New Age did not exist, it would have to be invented by the mystery of iniquity.
One also should keep in mind that once invented, the dangers of the New Age would have to be promoted.
Enter one Constance Cumbey, who has performed yeoman’s work in that regard.
Cumbey DOES give the reader some useful information–if the reader is able to extract such information buried beneath the narratives the author has used to frame it.
One example is the following quote by New Ager, Peter LeMesurier.
“The new mission to the youth of the world, then, will be an international movement dedicated to spreading the already developing ideas and values upon which the New Age is to be founded.”
This info is useful because the “new mission to the youth of the world” is a priority goal of the Dominionist strands of pseudo-Christianity which the mystery of iniquity depends upon to help introduce its “messiah.”
Readers can see this developing in front of their eyes.
It is not the New Age which is accomplishing this but the cults of Dominionism (including the New Apostolic Reformation and the International House of Prayer). By a great coincidence, the programs and ideas of these pseudo-Christian cults and those of the New Age are nearly identical.
Again, if the New Age did not exist, the mystery of iniquity would have had to invent it.
Cumbey devotes thousands of words to what the New Age has to say but precious few on what the Bible says on the same subject. For instance, she studiously avoids answering the logical questions: WHO is it that is interested in a coming Messiah? WHO does the Bible say is interested? WHO is it that desires a man (of sin) who will usher in a worldly kingdom? The reader will find none of these or other pertinent end times questions answered by the cunningly devised fables of Constance Cumbey.
Once upon a time (in our heathen days), we read the work of Constance Cumbey. One may read Cumbey for entertainment value without much harm. However, the reader of her work will be further from the truth after reading her spin on most of the topics she covers.
Our advice is the advice of Jesus, paraphrased.
“Take heed that Constance Cumbey does not deceive you.”
