False prophets
In religion, a false prophet[1], according to some is one who falsely claims the gift of prophecy or divine inspiration, or who uses that gift for evil ends.
- Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets <5578>, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Teachers and minister who eek to get something from the congregations of the people rather than give something may be ravening wolves. They may not merely be desiring money and financial security but emotional justification and even what could be called adoration.
- Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets <5578> shall rise, and shall deceive many.
These false teachers and prophets may not be the exception but the rule, especially in a time of a strong delusion where people become entangled in a yoke of bondage. When people m=become merchandise because of their covetous practices that curse children and make them a surety for debt you know the false prophets are many.
- Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets <5578>, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
They may do many good works and fool people by their righteousness but they will not preach the gospel of the kingdom but justify biting one another through praying or applying to men who call themselves benefactors but are workers of iniquity because they exercise authority one over the other.
- Mark 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets <5578> shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
Their religion will be full of great swelling words offered in soft tones but they will actually be deceiving the whole world who will follow after the Corban of the Pharisees making the word of God to none effect.
- Luke 6:26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets <5578>.
Men will seem good and do good thinks. They will say the Apostles were righteous men and Christ was God but they will find reasons to not do what he said to do and keep you from doing what the early Church did by their vain teachings.
- Acts 13:6 And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer[2], a false prophet <5578>, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus:
- 2 Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets <5578> also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
- 1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets <5578> are gone out into the world.
- Revelation 16:13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet <5578>.
- Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet <5578> that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
- Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet <5578> are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Angels of light
Many talk about angels or beings of light. Who are the good and who is evil. People today often talk about their truth rather than their opinion, their perception, or even their belief. But what is the truth?
Patrick Henry stated he was "willing to know the whole truth".[3]
Can any truth be the truth if it is not the "whole truth"?
Is not the definition is a lie little more than the incomplete truth. In the beginning of the Adamic story we cut ourselves off from the tree of life by using the tree of knowledge as the source of our understanding.
We can be deceived because we have been cut off from the light of the creator to the point that we even hate or fear the light. There have been many since that time we fled the garden and the tree of life who pretend to be that light. Just as their are false Christs[4] there are false religions and there will be false beings of light.
They will have truths but not the whole truth. We are to know them by their fruits but those fruits may also be false, or even poison.
- 2 Corinthians 11:14 "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
We should remember the instructions of the Christ about what to seek and what draws us near to the light of Christ.
We should desire to abide in Christ [5] which is to abide in the anointing of Christ.
God the Creator gave us dominion which is called the kingdom of God. We are suppose to seek that kingdom of God in Jesus original instructions. But we are not just to seek that kingdom of God but also the righteousness of God.
What is the truth about that righteousness. Many think they are righteous but are not. Thinking they are righteous is a part of their truth but not a part of the whole truth.
In Patrick Henry's speech about "a great and arduous struggle for liberty", that some of us will be "apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth". This has become too common today with censorship and cancel culture. Those are they who "having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not".[3]
Jesus talk about the same phenomena of failing to see and hear.[6]
All the doctrine of Jesus begins with repent. Repentance is thinking differently but hoe do we know how to do that without the word of God or Logos of Christ written on our heart and our mind?
Phases of destruction
Long before Cloward or Piven were born the process of moving the US to a socialist political economy was well on its way. Even Yuri Bezmenov a journalist and KGB defector warned America of the real dangers of Ideological subversion that was already going on in public education, the media, and politics for nearly a century. Yuri believed America was the last hope.
The Cloward-Piven plan has been laid out and well published for decades but now the process is in rapid motion and every phase of their plan was in full operation while they dined in the White House. History and human nature will fill in the blanks the fool and their worldly folly could not foresee in the blindness of their murderous ambition and that which they could not see will pour out bitter poison into their dreams.[7] Those dreams shall become nightmares that will overtake the children of deception with destruction.[8]
The degeneration of morals, the perversion history, and the toppling of symbols and Statues is evidence that Ideological subversion wrought by the rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places has been working.[9]
More than a decade ago Yuri Bezmenov was explaining the detailed plan of brainwashing of the youth and academics of nations.[10] With subtlety the foolish[11] have spread philosophies of death, the social practices destruction that made the people the workers of iniquity.[12] The people were envious of the benefits of the world of the foolish and desirous of the wages of unrighteousness.[13]
The abyss of vanity
The equality of Socialism is the prosperity of the wicked.[13] The words of Cloward, Piven, Marx and Lenin preached on the left is the gospel of envy and vanity.[14]
The people who are offended by free speech and who seek to silence the opinions of others will desire to exist in highly polarized and insulated ideological community wokely occupying their own information bubble deceiving themselves.[15]
If you fear the revelation of facts the truth becomes your enemy and lies will lurk about you but if you are willing to seek the whole truth and provide for it then facts are your friend and freedom will be your companion.
Their hate and covetousness feed each other blinding the whole nation[10] which ushers in the demoralization of the people until the habitual denial of truth. Any and all facts that bring the lies they cling to into the light become their enemy and all liars become their ally.[16]
Those who embrace a lie make an enemy of the truth. Like the heretics of the past they will seek to cut out their tongue of all those who share or even see the truth.
Pernicious ways
Their self-righteous vanity continues to bar any hope of redemption. If people of the world continue to cling to their pernicious ways and shun the way of Christ. The false prophets and their gospel of destruction[17] spread through the apostasy of the Modern Church[18] have deceived many[19] hearts and minds[20] to accept their pernicious ways. What are those pernicious ways? Peter told you it was covetousness.[21]
These pernicious ways take root among the people not just because of those false prophets and false teachers but because the people had an appetite for benefits and were willing in their hypocrisy[22] to obtain them by the rule of force which seared their conscience until they were accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others.
The history of destruction has been the story of the blind leading the blind.
Having all ten planks of the Communist Manifesto accepted as law in America for years now could have only been accomplished by implementing the idea that it was okay to seek benefits or gain through force and the taxation of your neighbor. This of course is the antitheses of what was at one time the essence of the teachings of Abraham who would not take a buckle, Moses who only wanted to free the people, or Jesus who came not only to serve but to set the captive free.[23]
The puppet masters of the world have secured outcomes and certainly manipulated elections through multiple means and double standards, censorship, and the usual Media Madness and mayhem. None of that would have been possible except the people were already willing to deceive themselves about so many things because of their own pride, sloth, and avarice.
How anyone claiming to be a Christian or Jew could imagine such covetous practices of providing benefits through force to be acceptable to God is evidence of a strong delusion.
Accepting the idea that public education among the Mire of other gifts, gratuities and benefits provided by rulers at the expense of your neighbor was a moral thing to do has already sealed the fate of America. America could only be great if Americans were truly good.
Of course it is not moral for Christians because Christ forbid it but the brutish pastors[24] of the modern Church do not preach the Gospel of the kingdom nor the way of the early Church.[25]
Phases
What phase are we in? Maybe all of them, certainly the phase called sin. You could say that Phase 1 and 2 were to manufacture a crisis to instill fear and cripple the economy. That could not have been done among people of true faith for they fear not. But that is where we run head long into the wall of pride and self-righteousness where facts don't matter.
The Coronavirus pandemic and subsequent compelled Shutdown were classic examples of a manufactured crises. They were able to control the people's thinking, if you can call it thinking, because people had not been seeking the whole truth nor providing for it themselves for a long, long time. The rulers of the darkness of this world filled with spiritual wickedness hate free speech because they love darkness. They were able to manufacture fear that no facts could alter nor could reason penetrate that wall of pride built through years of sanctimonious justification of sin.
Phase 3 would of course be the control and changes which are being done by promising people everything while delivering them more into bondage. But the real culprits of destruction, like the decline and fall of the Roman empire was the foolishness of the masses.
Phase 4 will undoubtedly run prices up and drain the population of the rest of their wealth and buying power with inflation which will inflate the fear factor. Phase 5 continue to undermine the system as they have done for years while food shortages overcome a degenerate and divided population. Power outages like we have seen for years now in Australia having destroyed their grid with "green energy". Then gas and fuel shortages while raising prices.
Phase 6 put down feeble attempts at rebellion with foreign troops if needed. Meanwhile keep sterilizing the youth with a biological agent disguised as vaccines. This will be followed by a real plague brought on with pathogenic priming and to collapse the population to the desired 500 million.
Americans and the world have already lost.
The new world order is already here. Because the people have long engaged in covetous practices forbidden by Christ, warned against by the Apostles and by Historians many have already degenerated into perfect savages and the lukewarm have no means of resistance except their vain imagination.[26]
The people have neglected,[27] if not abandoned,[28] the way of righteousness. Leaving them neither the strength nor the wisdom to battle the evil that is coming nor even dissipate the evil that is already here. They have lost the minds of generations which will not come back quickly and certainly not without suffering.
But there is a door If we will allow our thinking to be changed altering our actions, abandoning sloth.[29]
Don't be a foolish virgin.[30]
Our only defense or hope is to Repent and seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness starting with what Christ commanded and turn away from the wages of unrighteousness.

- ↑ 3.0 3.1 "Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it." Patrick Henry March 23, 1775.
