This article will explore three views of the nature of man held by the early Christian church and how those views developed into what we accept today in the modern church. The three views are: Augustinian – man is spiritually dead; Pelagianism – man is spiritually well at birth and chooses his own destiny; and semi-Pelagianism – man is spiritually sick and only needs the help of a higher power to assist him in his recovery. The heart of … Continue reading →
Officially, Roman Catholics worship only God – the Father, the incarnate Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Church, however, encourages veneration of the saints, with the virgin Mary foremost among them. Mary has received incredibly high-sounding titles, such as Mediatrix of all Grace (because Jesus came into the world through her), Co-Redeemer, Advocate and Dispenser of God’s Grace, and “Queen of Heaven,” despite the fact that the prophet Jeremiah strongly condemned the Jews of his day for worshiping a personality … Continue reading →
I found this video by two Christian women, Leah and Michelle of Isaiah 58 Ministries, that pretty much sums up what really occurred in Charlottesville leaving one person dead and dozens injured. More importantly they outline what is going on in our society on a broader scale. It’s a long video, but well worth the time spent watching. I think it’s important to understand, what we experienced in Charlottesville is not really new. It’s part of the Cultural Marxism that has … Continue reading →
Active humanists and the liberal media have for years undertaken a concentrated effort to misinform the American public by attacking the “Religious Right” and rewriting America’s Judeo-Christian history in a humanistic tone. The motto at the heart of the American experiment “in God we trust” has been exchanged for “in Man we trust.” Rewriting History The last three generations of Americans simply have not been told the truth about American history as its Christian heritage has been disparaged. For example, … Continue reading →
Humanism is a system of thought that centers on humans and their values, capacities, and worth; the doctrine emphasizing a person’s capacity for self-realization through reason. Humanism’s god is Man. The humanists may acknowledge God, but only as a means to an end. Their version of Christianity is not Biblical. It is full of fleshly and worldly ways. It is more for entertainment rather than for God’s glory alone. Since the Holy Spirit is not in it they must counterfeit … Continue reading →
It is forty years since Humanist Manifesto I (1933) appeared. Events since then make that earlier statement seem far too optimistic. Nazism has shown the depths of brutality of which humanity is capable. Other totalitarian regimes have suppressed human rights without ending poverty. Science has sometimes brought evil as well as good. Recent decades have shown that inhuman wars can be made in the name of peace. The beginnings of police states, even in democratic societies, widespread government espionage, and … Continue reading →
Emerging on the American scene in the mid-1930’s and igniting the culture war in recent years across America is what has been termed “Cultural Marxism“. Cultural Marxism has been defined as, “An offshoot of Marxism that gave birth to political correctness, multiculturalism and “anti-racism.” Unlike traditional Marxism that focuses on economics, Cultural Marxism focuses on culture and maintains that all human behavior is a result of culture (not heredity / race) and thus malleable. Cultural Marxists absurdly deny the biological … Continue reading →
Faith in god is an aberrant belief arising out of the pressures of the class struggle. A well-developed atheistic worldview is that of Marxism/Leninism. Marxism sees religion and God as man made institutions invented to ease emotional pain and explain life and death. Karl Marx called religion the… “opiate of the masses,” in that it deadened the desire for social change in the present with a hope of heaven. With ties by marriage to Nathan Mayer Rothschild, one of the … Continue reading →
See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. [Colossians 2:8] New Age is not new … it is a modern revival of ancient religious traditions, along with a potpourri of influences: Eastern mysticism, modern philosophy and psychology, science and science fiction, and the counterculture of the 50s and 60s. “… So here we are in the New Age, … Continue reading →
The time has come for widespread recognition of the radical changes in political beliefs throughout the modern world. The time is past for mere revision of traditional attitudes. Science and economic change have disrupted the old beliefs. Religions the world over are under the necessity of coming to terms with new conditions created by a vastly increased knowledge and experience. In every field of human activity, the vital movement is now in the direction of a candid and explicit humanism. … Continue reading →
