The following seven
points are reprinted here from a home page piece
I wrote for the
November-December 2011 edition of my
webzine. They hold the core reasons why things
happen the way they do in our society. Of course
the details are much more complex, but I think
you'll find everything, at its core, can be
explained here. If you think something is amiss
or something must be added or considered, I'd
love to hear from you. For context I urge you to
read the entire
home page
piece, as well as peruse
the entire webzine.
-
Men believe in their hearts that they
are gods. They have a deep inner desire to dominate others, and
everything around you reflects this truth. When things
appear good because they are doing good things, they're lying. When
their genuine iniquity seeps through all the splendidly charitable
goodness, we're dying. Jesus himself confirmed this truth by
declaring, "You believe yourselves that you are gods..."
-
Human sacrifice is the necessary result
of that desire, necessary because to dominate one must hack, carve,
shave off, vacuum out, or otherwise appropriate value of another to find any gratification at all. In
fact, everyone sacrifices. Every single human individual. The
difference is, are you an other-sacrificer, or a self-sacrificer?
The former originated in Cain's other-sacrifice of his brother for
himself, the latter is modeled by Christ's sacrifice of Himself for
others.
-
The Roman Catholic Church models this behavior
by compelling people to attend to services in which other-sacrifice is
profoundly symbolized and rousingly modeled: in the bread pronounced a
real person then eaten by the masses, through images of a dead guy
hanging limp on an instrument of capital punishment, by sartorially
magnificent priests holding the mantle of carrying out the requisite extraction. Any religious body—no matter how much the church
assembly is "reformed," "protestant," "evangelical,"
or "nondenominational"—willfully embracing a 501c3 tax-exempt non-profit
incorporated
status is simply doing the work of the Roman ecclesia on behalf of
the World System.
-
To manage its virulently lethal
effects, temporal government is assigned the
task of putting some boundaries around the expanse of human sacrifice.
The legislatures, the courts, the executive offices, and the bureaucratic agencies are all firmly in place as the continuation of the
divinely ordained administration of World affairs by Cain's city,
required because without it humans would tear
one another apart in a matter of days. This way it is much more
palatable, spurred by the best marketing campaign taxpayer dollars
can buy.
-
The World System must operate thusly. The feds,
the churches, the banks, the media, the universities, and all the institutions
that gird them were set in motion millennia ago by God for the
purpose of constraining man's behavior just enough that some
would indeed begin calling on the Lord. The weight of World
prosecution is so overwhelming that they would
ultimately drop to their knees in complete desperation and look to
the One who would save them.
-
The only alternative to the World is
the Kingdom. The Kingdom is about the full, rich, abundant manifestation of everything the Holy Spirit is about in the lives of
everyone in community. Everyone. Those living in it have a
hundred times what other-sacrificers
have, even in the face of the most heinous persecution.
-
The final answer in this strata is that
to find it one must give himself over to the Jesus Who Actually
Loves. He is not one of the anti-Christs, straw man Jesuses, or the storybook gods so widely worshipped. Jesus
asks of
everyone exactly what He did with Himself, nothing less. After dying to self,
you get the Kingdom: life, joy, peace, grace, love, the deepest
highest widest fulfillment of all true desire for all eternity.
Jesus won't share this with any World entity, and someone tied to any of
those entities simply cannot see this truth from the One Who Is
Truth.
