I’m not convinced Unlimited Submission is a Biblical Worldview.

Tyranny Vs LibertyUnlimited Submission IS NOT Biblical

Christians should do all they can to submit to the government (Romans 13:1-7).

However, the government does not have unfettered authority to control our lives.

We all face gray areas as believers, yes. But adopting a secular worldview, in whole or in part, is not “loving your neighbor.” Living as a courageous Christian who stands for the truth and extends an arm of love to others while never sacrificing the principles of God’s Word is what it means to “love your neighbor.”

If, for example, we lived in China, and we were under the “one-child” policy, we would have grounds for not following this policy. This worldview is directly contrary to Scripture’s teaching on the goodness of a home full of children (see Psalm 127 and 139). In such an instance, love of neighbor actually means standing against “Caesar” with a posture of gracious and controlled defiance.

For Christians, love of neighbor DOES NOT MEAN obeying the commands of false worldviews (Matthew 22:34-39).

For Christians, love of neighbor DOES MEAN you do what God commands, not what the world demands, and from that God-obeying stance, reach out to others in grace and truth.

The Great Commission and the Cultural Commission are Inseparable

 The scriptural justification for culture building begins in Genesis (V 1:26-28)

For five days, God created the world/universe we live in, then on the sixth day, He created man in His image and gave him/(us) dominion over creation [Genesis 1:26].

He commands us to carry on where He left off – the development of His creation will be our responsibility and it will be to “fill” and “subdue” the earth and that can only include both social and cultural means as well. (Gen 1:28)

At this point creation (before the Fall) is still “very good”. God gives the responsibility of creating civilization to the one who bears His image. We must further populate the planet by producing offspring, and we must further shape the environment and the culture by taming it.

Since Adam and Eve, each generation still bear children, builds families, and spread across the earth. We still tend animals and plant fields; we still construct cities and governments; we still make music and art.

Maybe we have lost our influence over the culture because the church has focused solely on the Great Commission of saving souls and has neglected to save/build the culture as well.

Salvation doesn’t mean simply freedom from sin; salvation should also mean being restored to the task we were given at the beginning of time – the task of creating and maintaining culture.

Every part of creation came from God’s hand. Redemption does not appear to be just for individuals but for all creation (Col 1:15-20).

The teaching seems to be clear; Christians are saved not only from something (sin) but also to something (Christ’s lordship over ALL of life).

We are meant to proceed to the Restoration of all God’s creation, which includes private and public virtue; individual and family life; education and community; work, politics, and law; science and medicine; literature, art, and music.

The goal of Redemption includes the sacred as well as the secular. We are to bring “all things” under Christ’s lordship in the home, school, work, corporate board rooms, movie screen, concert stage, city council, and legislative chambers.

Politics, the law, and art [all forms of media] are all part of the Cultural Commission or Mandate.

This is why EVERY Christian must have a comprehensive worldview that covers all aspects of reality and only a Biblical Worldview gives us that.

A Biblical Worldview insists that God’s laws govern ALL of God’s creation.

If you still don’t see the evilness surrounding us….

If you still don’t see the evilness surrounding us and everything that has happened since November 2020, then you just never read to understand anything of significance in your life.

It’s my defiance and the defiance of those like me that are protecting your freedoms and liberties and it is the submissive obedience of others that is endangering mine as well as your own.

If we don’t fight like we are the 3rd monkey trying to get onto Noah’s Ark while we still can, we can have no expectation we’ll fight when we no longer can.

How can we fight?  Stop supporting the lie. Stop supporting those telling the lies. Mass disobedience is our most powerful weapon right now.

  • Support businesses that refuse to comply with mandates and reduce/cut all spending with businesses that do.
  • Refuse to comply with employers who try to enforce any kind of mandate and force them to fire you so they feel the pain of losses.
  • Remove your children from any education system that is implementing any type of mandates and/or work with other families to create homeschooling /unschooling co-ops.

If you do not have the courage to fight for freedom without chaos, but rather want personal peace and safety, then stand down and out of the way. Wear your three masks; cower with fear and indignation, but do it to the side, not in the path to freedom. The politicians, our institutes of medicine, religion and education, big business/big tech, and the bureaucrats are breaking constitutional law every day, either out of ignorance or satanic malice.

We the People have the Constitution on our side. Learn your rights. We must use the Constitution to resist as “civil disobedients”.

When we can show the world that America’s Constitutional Republic principles beat back Satan’s minions, maybe then we will be one step closer to the true awakening we want and need.

“In every action we take, we are doing one of two things: we are either helping to create a Hell on earth or helping to bring down a foretaste of heaven. We are either contributing to the broken condition of the world or participating with God in transforming the world to reflect his righteousness. We are either advancing the rule of Satan or establishing the reign of God.  – How Now Shall We Live by Chuck Colson

So, every time you nod your head to a lie, you are helping to create hell on earth.

If we are choosing between being divided by truth or united by lies, ALWAYS choose division by truth – otherwise, evilness wins.

The Feminization of Man

Courage

I cannot speak to what is happening in Europe and Scandinavia, but I don’t doubt the subject of this interview because I see the same thing here in America.

I am involved in several causes that are intended to battle the corrupt and inaccurate worldview of the progressive leftists and the ones doing most of the heavy lifting are women.

It is because the male species in America, and it seems the world over, have lost their courage [I come from an era that calls it “their balls”]

One of the great gifts you can give yourself is courage.

Sometimes it takes courage to remain silent but more times than not it takes more courage to speak out when you know that what you are going to say is unpopular.

Finding men and women who are good is easy; finding good people who also have courage is unfortunately rare.

Courage is the unwillingness to put up with and support lies and the liars who tell the lies.

Truth is the one thing courageous people are willing to defend ALWAYS

Find Your Voice:

Have the courage to stand up to lies and speak truth.

Find the courage to share your thoughts not because you think it will change the minds of people who think differently than you but to show people who already think like you that they’re not alone and maybe inspire others to find theirs.

What are you willing to defend?

You either love truth or love lies – which are you?

Progressive leftism needs to constantly foment, hate, fear, resentment, oppression, class/group inequality, and ingratitude.

The left needs you to be ungrateful.

Without the order of a Biblical Worldview, you get chaos.

In a remarkable interview Danish journalist Iben Thranholm said this about the disappearance of Western manhood: Dear European Men: You Are Pathetic Pussies.  This is a Danish woman’s conclusion.

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2021/05/paul-craig-roberts/the-feminization-of-western-men/

Thranholm says that Western men have been feminized and Western women defeminized. She says feminists have destroyed men, who are now raised to be women. Consequently, there is no one to protect white women from the sexually aggressive immigrant-invaders brought into all European countries by the anti-white European Union, an enemy of national sovereignty that wants the destruction of European ethnic nationalities. 

Iben Thranholm says Western men have been deprived of strength and confidence by feminism.  All over Europe, white women of European ethnicity, French, German, Danish, Swedish are raped openly in public by the privileged people of color welcomed in by scum like Merkel, the corrupt French governments, the bought-and-paid-for Italians, the dumbshit British, and the white men just look away and walk on by. Not only has feminism deprived men of any sense of obligation to their women, they are scared to death of being arrested for offending a person of color by interfering with his rape of a white woman.  Indeed, in Scandanavia women are not only afraid to leave their homes, they are afraid to report their rape, because the police might charge them with a hate crime for claiming rape by a protected person of color. In Sweden the protection of Swedish women is so nonexistent that it is becoming a right for a person of color to rape a Swedish woman. 

IT IS BETTER TO BE DIVIDED BY TRUTH THAN UNITED BY LIES!!

Choose Courage

Faces of CourageOne of the great gifts you can give yourself is Courage.

The Greek word parresia (παρρησία) is used 31 times in the New Testament. It means boldness, confidence, courage, and fearlessness.  All words found in the Bible that relate to the concept of parresia.

Jesus spoke with parresia like no one ever had. He spoke with courage because He only spoke Truth.

His disciples said, “Ah, now you are speaking PLAINLY (παρρησία) and not using figurative speech!” (John 16:29 ESV)

Jesus answered him, “I have spoken OPENLY (παρρησία) to the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. I have said nothing in secret. (John 18:20 ESV).

Because Jesus spoke with parresia, He inspired others to find their own Voice and speak in courage as well.

Now when they saw the BOLDNESS (παρρησία) of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus. (Acts 4:13 ESV)

Parresia (παρρησία) is the truth spoken without shame. Unfortunately, parresia is in low supply, not just amongst our culture but sadly, in our church as well.  The American church no longer influences our culture. Rather sadly, too many of our churches are influenced instead by the political correctness of progressive Marxism.

Parresia (παρρησία) is what the church needs to effectively preach the gospel and once again place its influence on our culture.

How important is Truth?

Scripture tells us to “put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil” (Ephesians 6:11, ESV). Paul tells us (in Ephesians 6:14) that truth is the very first thing we should put on. When Paul mentions truth, he is clearly talking about the truth of Scripture (e.g., Ephesians 1:13; 4:25; etc.)

What truth is:

  1. Truth is universal. It is true for all people, all places, all times, all cultures
  2. Truth is absolute. It is not relative.
  3. Truth is timeless. It is true yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
  4. Truth is objective. It is not based on feelings or opinions. Truth is discovered, we don’t make it up or create it.
  5. Truth corresponds with reality, to the way things really are. Truth is ‘telling it like it is’.
  6. Truth is based on God. Only God provides an unchanging, universal reality upon which truth is based.
  7. Truth is knowable, unarguable, and self-evident. God has made us and the world in such a way that truth can be known.

Here is the great evangelical disaster – the failure of the evangelical world to stand for truth as truth. There is only one word for this – namely accommodation: the evangelical church has accommodated to the world spirit of the age.” – Francis Schaeffer

We desperately need a “Church” which stands strong on truth; that will not knowingly support a lie.

“If we are not preaching the gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject it and us, then we are not preaching the true gospel.”

Sometimes it takes Courage to remain silent but often times it takes more courage to speak out when you know that what you are going to say is unpopular.

 Finding men and women who are good is easy; finding good people who also have courage is unfortunately rare.

Find Your Voice:

Progressive leftism needs to constantly foment, hate, fear, resentment, oppression, class/group inequality, and ingratitude.

The progressive-left needs you to be ungrateful because happy people don’t vote LEFT.
