Live Not by Lies and stop supporting those who tell the lies. It is better to be divided by TRUTH than united by lies!

What actions can conservatives and especially conservative, Born Again Christians implement to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and our community?

We have to get back to living, working, and moving forward. WE HAVE TO OPEN UP THE ECONOMY OURSELVES, regardless of mandates, orders, or regulations from governments—federal, state, or local.

Protests? Ya, probably. But more than that, we simply go back to work.

Our government is based on the consent of the governed. WE decide. We aren’t the property of the State. We aren’t products shaped by the State. We weren’t born to be medical guinea pigs all our lives.

We need to stop submitting to restrictions and stop hiding quietly in our homes while our community and businesses are destroyed.

Organizing and maintaining this is going to require some risk in order to encourage others to join.

For example, if we want business owners to refuse to enforce lockdown rules then when a business owner makes a courageous decision and faces off with health or law enforcement officials, we need to be there to back them up. This means we do it respectfully but with full Constitutional knowledge as part of our armor. This is called “Creating-a-Wall-of-Worry”

The following is an excerpt from: Its time for conservatives and especially Christian Conservatives to unite against the globalist Reset https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/12/brandon-smith/the-new-confederacy-yes-its-time-for-conservatives-to-unite-against-the-globalist-reset/    

“Many police and sheriffs are not onboard with the enforcement of illegal mandates, but those that are, need to understand that there are potential consequences for doing so. The wall of worry is a deterrent, and the larger the group of people involved the better. Police are not going to risk escalation of a fight over lockdown mandates if they realize that fight could go badly for them. And, if people in their own departments are against the lockdowns, the consequences double if they seek to enforce them. They should be the ones worried, not us.

Health Department officials are even less likely to push the issue in the face of opposition.

By extension, if your local sheriff’s department or police department is standing against the unconstitutional mandates and the state or federal government threatens them with repercussions, YOU must be there to offer help and support. They are taking a risk for you, so you must be willing to take a risk for them.

I am also hearing considerable chatter that many medical professionals including doctors and nurses are going to REFUSE to take the poorly tested and questionable Covid vaccine for fear of damaging side effects. And why should they? Why take a vaccine for a virus that only threatens less than 0.3% of the public outside of nursing homes?

Medical professionals are under immense pressure to take the vaccine or lose their license to practice. Conservatives MUST defend them if they rebel against mandatory vaccination.

This means helping them to set up their own clinics outside of the controlled system where they can continue to aid people and still make a living. This means networking liberty-minded patients that need treatments for various ailments to doctors and nurses that will not demand they show a medical passport and will not report them to the government. This means protecting doctors and nurses from retribution should government officials try to punish or arrest them.

Communities will need to build their own localized economies, using barter and trade and maybe even creating a local currency scrip (hopefully backed by some kind of commodity). They are going to have to insulate themselves from the lockdowns economically in order to defy the lockdowns in a practical way. Otherwise, anyone that does not conform to medical passports and contact tracing will be denied access to the establishment-controlled economy and die of poverty. We have to create alternatives. We have to offer people a choice outside of tyranny, otherwise many will go along with the tyranny.

Finally, conservative communities are going to have to provide for their own security. Regardless of how the election situation actually ends, and even if Trump stays in the White House and refuses to concede, martial law is an unacceptable scenario. Conservatives don’t need it anyway. We should be establishing localized security (otherwise known as militias) composed of any able-bodied person in the community that wants to join. These militias would have to form as unofficial organizations, as it is unlikely that state politicians will sanction them.”

Specific Actions We Can All Take Now:

• Educate yourself on the true nature of progressivism in our three major institutions of influence:
  • The media – news, entertainment, literature, and art
  • The education system
  • The Church
• Live Not by Lies: Refuse to support lies and the liars that tell them.
  • DO NOT support any form of social justice – BLM, Critical Race Theory, LGBTQ, Feminism,….
  • Do not support any entity [social media, business, association, church, etc] that supports the lies with your money, engagement, or otherwise.
• Have alternative ways of mass communicating with like-minded people (share email addresses and text numbers at the very least.)
• Create small groups to support each other – spiritually, emotionally, financially, physically, and mentally. Help those whose jobs are being threatened to find another job, or maybe the church could hire them in a business they created for just this purpose or maybe even help them create their own BIZ.
  • Play “Spot the Lie” within these small groups and with your kids. When watching a movie, reading a book, seeing a fake news piece, or maybe even discussing the latest sermon, ask and then discuss “What’s wrong with that message.” This is part of the Biblical Worldview (BWV) study. Then just as critically Discuss the Truth.
  • Share ideas and talk about better ways to fight back while staying within the confines of a Biblical Worldview
  • Each member should be encouraged to join or form at least one other small group – it’s called creating circles-within-circles. Periodically several of these groups could get together at one time to get to know each other and share thoughts and ideas.
  • If you belong to a church that still has some sense of courage and integrity, work with them to create this community through small groups. Churches should be our last safe space and good true Christian churches need to stop supporting the lies. This means not only creating that community but helping to employ those who lose their jobs or maybe even helping people start their own businesses. The day is upon us where Christians, real, true Christians, will lose their status, lose their jobs, will be marginalized, and maybe even imprisoned or killed. All for drawing that line in the sand and refusing to support the lies.
  • Teach a Biblical Worldview [BWV]. A BWV teaches us a way of life that brings us clarity in chaos, peace in problems, and boldness in bad times. A BWV is a way of dealing with reality so that we See, Judge, and Act like Jesus because we think like Jesus.

How can we identify the line in the sand where we need to actively resist the government? – Frank Turek

• One: If they compel you to sin – ex. If they force you to have an abortion – Frank Turek
• Two: If they prevent you from doing something God has told you to do – ex. Worshiping God. – Frank Turek
• Three: Simply because a law exists, is not in and of itself, a reason to obey it. When the moment comes, we will not be the first to disobey unjust and ungodly laws.
  Many have gone before us:
  • The Egyptian midwives [Exodus 1:17, 21]
  • Rahab [Joshua 2]
  • Obadiah hiding Gods prophets [1 Kings 18]
  • Shadrach, Meshach, and abednego [Daniel 3:13-27]
  • Daniel [Daniel 6:13]
  • Esther [Esther 4:16]
  • The Magi [Matthew 2:8, 12]
  • Peter and John [Acts 4:19-20, 5:29]
  • Moses leading the Jews from Egyptian captivity [Exodus 14]
  • For printing the Bible, William Tyndale was choked to death in 1536 and his body was burned on the spot.  Two years later the same king who ordered his death, recanted and started having the Bible printed in 1538
  • Another classic example of civil disobedience is Sir Thomas more who defied King Henry VIII as a matter of principled conscience and paid for it with his life 1535.
  • Martin Luther King Jr is a modern-day example. Read his “Letter from Birmingham Jail”
  • Or read Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s  “Live Not by Lies” essay.

In the mid-sixties groups of Marxist agitators moved in amongst the blacks in America to promote direct action by violence. One of those was Eldridge Cleaver, who had been trained in Marxist ideology/religion and tactics while serving a 15-year prison sentence in California state penitentiary.

In 1967 he became the Minister of Information for the Black Panthers. In his books, Cleaver describes the rationale behind their philosophy of violence.  It was to destroy the whole economic and social structure of the United States so that blacks could enjoy equal rights under an American Communist regime.  And here we are, 50 years later, and now with the help of the education system, media, and progressive churches, America must fight off the lies and liars once again.

During the summer of 1968 over a hundred American cities were racked by Marxist violence via the Black Panthers, but the burning was always in the Black ghettos. The idea was to put the Black population in direct confrontation with police in order to solidify their apparent need to become a racial bloc for the coming revolution.  Their game plan was, as it is today under the Democratic Progressive Marxist Party to sow hatred, ingratitude, insecurity, and racial and class tension.

Progressivism [aka Marxism/Communism] can’t function without having people feel those things.

This is simply Satan’s latest attempt to conquer and divide.

But, the burning and fire-bombing backfired. The Black community wised up pretty fast and realized it was only homes and neighborhoods of blacks that were burning.

In a shoot-out with police, nineteen Black Panthers were killed and Eldridge was wounded. He and his wife would later flee to Cuba and then moved to other Communist countries.

After nearly eight years as an exile in Communist and Socialist countries, Eldridge Cleaver asked to be allowed to return to the United States and face the consequences of his earlier transgressions. He and his wife were no longer atheists. They were no Communists. The years behind the iron and bamboo curtains had dispelled the propaganda concerning “equality” and “Justice” under Communism. Cleaver told the press: “I would rather be in jail in America than free anywhere else.”

He then went on to say: “I was wrong and the Black Panthers were wrong…We [black Americans] are inside the system and I feel the number one objective for Black Americans is to recognize that they have the same equal rights under the Constitution as Ford or Rockefeller, even if we have no blue-chip stocks. But our membership in the United States is the supreme blue-chip stock and the one we have to exercise. (Laile Bartlett, “The Education of Eldridge Cleaver,” Readers Digest, September 1976, pg. 65-72)

Eldridge paid his final debt to society by 1981. Soon after he began speaking engagements in schools, churches, community gatherings, and even prison groups to describe his new and profound appreciation for America. He described the despondency he felt when he finally realized that human rights and human dignity under Communism was a LIE! He described the long and strenuous intellectual struggle with his Marxist atheism before he recognized its fraudulent fallacies. He assured his audiences, just as John Locke had done long ago, that a persistent pursuit of truth would bring them to the same threshold of reality that he now enjoyed, where the Creator could be recognized and thereafter have a place in their lives.

In August 2015, George Barna released results from a survey that revealed why Conservatives do not speak up. It’s not so much because they are afraid of the political correctness of today’s progressive Marxists, and being called names like “bigot”, “intolerant” or “hateful”.

They are quiet because they don’t know what to say; they don’t know how to state their convictions in a Biblical way.

They lack a Biblical Worldview.

Just one year prior to this survey, Pew Research discovered that people want their pastors to speak up on social and political issues.

As one courageous old-time pastor once said “If we are not preaching the gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject us, then we are not preaching the true gospel.

Why are churches and their pastors themselves afraid to speak the full truth?

It all began July 2, 1954, when Lydon Baines Johnson [LBJ] became angry with two prominent Texas businessmen who opposed him in his reelection bid for the Senate. During the campaign, they accused him of being too soft on communism in America.

When a bill overhauling the tax code was going through the senate, LBJ added a few words to the proposal in what became known as the Johnson Amendment. It passed with no discussion and only a voice vote. [You see, lack of courage and corruption was already running rampant through the halls of congress].

The amendment effectively silenced and muzzled all pastors. Nearly all churches are classified as not-for-profit 501 [c](3) charitable organizations by the IRS.

The Johnson Amendment inadvertently made it illegal for a pastor to oppose a candidate from the pulpit.

First, Here’s an oddity: There are 29 different 501 [c] not-for-profit categories, but the only one suddenly silenced was the church!

Second: What does it mean to oppose or endorse a candidate?  That’s unclear. If a pastor says “vote to oppose abortion” and one candidate/party is pro-life and the other is pro-choice, did the pastor endorse a candidate?  The IRS cannot give a clear answer to this question.

Third: The First Amendment guarantees no governmental interference into the pulpit – NONE. The IRS has no authority to dictate what a pastor can and cannot preach from the pulpit, and they know it. At the urging of the Alliance Defending Freedom [ADF], more than 3,000 Christian pastors have intentionally violated this amendment since 2008 by endorsing or opposing a candidate/party from their pulpit and the IRS has not taken a single church to court.

Why Not you ask?

Probably because they do not want the Johnson Amendment to come under Constitutional scrutiny.

Once again, this is a clear example of how our churches/pastors have bought into and supported the lie. They have been more influenced by culture than they have influenced culture instead.

There are three major institutions of influence in America:

• Public education
• Media – News, art, literature, entertainment
• The Church

Any ideology (worldview) that controls any of them controls any or all of them, controls its people by controlling the culture. Progressive Marxism controls education and the media nearly 100% and now a vast majority of our churches.

A silent pulpit produces an uninformed and politically illiterate electorate.

Before you offer up the tired old objection of “separation of church and state” – know this: There is no such clause in the Constitution or Bill of Rights.

This is just another lie that has been taught for at least five generations and no one questions it’s validity

The phrase actually comes from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson to the Danbury Baptist of Connecticut on January 1, 1802, in which he used the phrase “wall of separation” to assure them that the federal government would never intrude into church life.

If we are going to make sense of our world, we must study worldviews.

Never Knowingly Support a Lie!

“The elites and elite institutions are abandoning classic liberalism for progressive Marxism that regards justice in terms of groups. It encourages people to identify with groups – ethnic, sexual, and otherwise – and to think of Good and Evil as a matter of power dynamics among the groups.

A utopian vision drives these progressives, one that compels them to seek to rewrite history and reinvent language to reflect their ideals of social justice.

Further, these utopian progressives are constantly changing language, standards of thought, speech, and behavior.

Under this Progressive/Marxist religious ideology, you can never be sure when those in power will come after you as the villain for having said or done something that was perfectly fine the day before.

“You will not be able to predict what will be held against you tomorrow. You have no idea what completely normal thing you do today, or say today, will be used against you to destroy you. This is what people in the Soviet Union saw. We know how it works.” – A Soviet-born émigré who teaches in a university deep in the US heartland. [Source: Live Not by Lies by Rod Dreher]

Because progressivism uses language that is soft and endearing, it catches those without a Biblical Worldview, unawares, and makes it hard for Americans schooled in Progressive/Marxism in the schools, churches, and media to recognize what is happening.

Most Americans born after the early 1960s have no idea that communism [aka Marxism, socialism, and now progressivism] is a militant atheistic ideology/religion and declares Christianity its mortal enemy.

In my estimation, 50-80% of Catholics and so-called evangelicals are at best “professing christians” and thus will be the ones most shocked when these progressives come after them – even though the vast majority voted for them.

There is an old Eastern European saying [from the communist days] that “You can vote yourself into Communism, but you have to shoot your way out.”

Progressives once in power will gut the Constitution starting either with the First Amendment or the Second.  If history is any indicator, my guess would be the Second Amendment. And besides, they have been using soft-totalitarianism to gut the First Amendment for the last 20 years.

If America does not get their spiritual lives in order, there is slim hope of resisting this soft-totalitarianism before it turns into hard-core totalitarianism.

In 2003, the Barna Research Group conducted a nationwide survey and determined that only 4 percent of Americans had a “biblical” worldview. When George Barna, who has researched cultural trends and the Christian Church since 1984, looked at the “born-again” believers in America, the results were a dismal 9 percent.

This calculates out to approximately 7.5M Americans are True, Real Christians who are Born Again AND have a Biblical Worldview.

On the eve of his forced exile from then Soviet Russia, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn published a final message to his fellow Russians titled “Live Not by Lies”.

In this essay, he challenged the pessimistic claim that the totalitarian system was so powerful that the ordinary man or woman cannot change it.

Nonsense, he said. The foundation of Progressive/Marxist/Communist is an ideology made up of lies. The system depends on people’s fears of challenging these lies for its very existence. This is how so few elites, can control billions of people worldwide.

There are only three institutions of influence in America.

• Education – specifically public education.
• Media – news, entertainment industry, literature, and art
• And finally – Churches.

Progressive Marxism controls the first two nearly completely and probably the majority of the churches.

Our duty as Born-Again Christians is to NEVER knowingly support lies.

We must be willing to live outside the mob, courageously defend truth, and be willing to endure the consequences.

We may have to live in this world of lies but we do not need to choose to allow the world to live in us.

You may not have the courage or strength to stand up in the public square and say what you truly believe, but you can at least refuse to affirm the lies through any form of acquiescence.

Sometimes being a dissident means speaking up and sometimes it may mean keeping silent when you aren’t expected to.

We need to Stand in Solidarity:
A time of persecution and painful testing is coming. Lukewarm, shallow, professing “christians” – those who practice progressive theology, WILL NOT come through this with their faith intact. They will be the ones Jesus is speaking of in Matthew 7:21-23.

It is time to start preparing for “living not by lies”.

• When you can, stop giving your business to progressives.
• Distance yourself from Big Brother/Big Tech surveillance
• Find new ways to communicate with fellow Christians.
• Join or form a small “underground” group to be your new “safe” community of like-minded people. While at the same time, keep your enemies close.

Can keeping silent be a lie?

Yes!

When you hear or read something that is a lie, instead of setting the record straight you either say nothing (which is a way of agreeing) or you agree just to keep the peace, be faltering, or to be “kind”.

Never Knowingly Support a Lie.

It is better to be divided by Truth than united by lies.
