Strengthening Community: The Big Scam

Although it may have already been there all along, I've begun to notice how some organizations are making a pitch for community empowerment. The promotion will often suggest that community members share, focus on common purpose, or at least understand and tolerate each others values and attitudes, to create a stronger community.

If you read the two articles on the communitarian transition to collectivism, you'd spot the advertising campaign the YMCA is currently using.

Did you realize that the Young Men's Christian Association was never really Christian? When it was started, they had a Christian exterior, but their roots were ecumenical and globalist from the start. John Mott, the Ys founder, was entangled with Freemasonry; the Rockefeller family; he was involved in the formation of the World Council of Churches (1948); and the early missionary movements - whose goal it was to gain entrance into foreign countries for the purpose of spreading democracy using Imperialism.[1]

Mott favored equal rights, a tenet of Freemasonry, and was instrumental at putting women to work during World War I. Under President Wilson, Mott became general secretary of the National War Work Council [1]. Although it may have been necessary to put women to work in certain areas of the country, it was the beginning of the breakdown of the family in the U.S..

Mott's first book, Strategic Points in the World's Conquest, reported this first international journey and established Mott as an ecumenical statesman. His evangelistic visits to Christian campus's emphasized dedication to Christ, personal purity and above all, missionary service. [2] Christian institutions were flooded with John D. Rockefeller's communist money to teach their liberal theology - the social gospel. The Rockefeller family and other powerful "change agents" fueled the missionary movement. It was an attempt of elites to manipulate honest men, and they weren't able to see through their plan of world conquest.

As you have seen through their ad campaign, the YMCA has continued its effort to socially engineer communities. They are assisting in furthering the communitarian plan to mold America into a collectivist society.

"And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not." 2 Peter 2:2,3

Jerry Falwell: Should We Warn or Praise?

by David Cloud

Fundamental Baptist Information Service

Was the late Jerry Falwell’s overall influence to the Independent Baptist movement good or bad?

Falwell’s spiritual compromise and error was not late in coming and was not small by any measure. It was evident even by the 1970s that the man had made a 180 degree turn from his earlier stand and that he was determined to conduct a broadly ecumenical ministry. He was doubtless sincere in his desire to “bring America back to God,” but sincerity didn’t keep Moses from being judged by God when he struck the rock instead of speaking to it. “And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully” (2 Timothy 2:5).

In 1999 I issued a warning report entitled “Jerry Falwell: The Billy Graham of Independent Baptists.”

Though Falwell claimed to be a fundamental Baptist, in reality he was a groundbreaking ecumenist who helped pave the way for the end-time harlot “church.” He happily worked alongside Roman Catholics, Charismatics, unregenerate Jews, Mormons, and religionists of many stripes who are staunchly opposed to the doctrine that he professed to hold in his Baptist church. 

Falwell and his buddy, the self-proclaimed “messiah” Rev. Sun Myung Moon

In a sermon preached in Evansville, Indiana, on December 12, 1978, Falwell said, “I believe God has called us in this last quarter of the 20th century to bring respectability to fundamentalism” (cited from Don Jasmin, Why Do Fundamental Schools Go Apostate, 2007, p. 171).

That was the same unscriptural objective that was announced at the founding of the New Evangelical movement in the late 1940s. When Christianity becomes respectable in the sight of this sin-cursed world, it has left its Biblical moorings. The Lord Jesus Christ is Almighty God, but He wasn’t respected when He came into the world 2,000 years ago, and He is not respected by the world today. Christ’s apostles were certainly not respected by the religious crowd or by the world at large. They were mocked, hounded, persecuted, and killed.

One of Falwell’s first concrete steps toward compromise was in the late 1970s when he decided that he needed to influence politics, and toward that end he formed the Moral Majority. 

This was a dramatic change of his doctrine. In the 1960s Falwell had said, “Nowhere are we commissioned to reform the externals. We are not told to wage wars against bootleggers, liquor stores, gamblers, murderers, prostitutes, racketeers, prejudiced persons or institutions, or any other existing evil as such. I feel that we need to get off the streets and back into the pulpits and into our prayer rooms” (“TV Evangelist Jerry Falwell Dies at 73,” USA Today, May 15, 2007).

By the late 1970s Falwell had made an 180 degree change in doctrine with the formation of the Moral Majority. By 1986 the organization had 500,000 active contributors and a mailing list of six million people. At that time, Falwell said that Catholics made up the largest constituency (30%) (Christianity Today, February 21, 1986).  (Read more)

"The Devil is the author of false religions like Roman Catholicism (2 Corinthians 11; 1 Timothy 4), and it is a strange sight to see men like Jerry Falwell clamor for unity with false religions for the purpose of defeating the Devil’s works!" ~David Cloud

Worldview Weekend Radio: Chris Pinto

On Worldview Weekend Radio, Brannon Howe's guest is Chris Pinto. Chris has produced the documentary The Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers, explaining that not all of the founding fathers were Christians. While some of the founders were Christians, men like Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and George Washington were actually hostile to the Gospel while friendly to Christian ideals. 

This message has been hard to swallow, especially since homeschool curriculum, Christian books, and speakers promote the idea that they were all solid Christians. This is an excellent DVD and seen by every Christian.

Listen to the broadcast.
