Evil Leaders


Evil leaders fall into two main categories... Those who commit evil acts such as Hitler, Stalin, and so on or leaders that live evil lives and the Word of God gives us a very clear picture of who is really a disciple of Christ and who is not…

The first stop is what are the fruits of a believer? Galatians 5:22-24 tells that “The fruit of the >Spirit< is love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts”. So we can see from this that those of the Spirit (born again) will exhibit these fruits in their lives.

However, those not of the Spirit will exhibit other signs and they are these… “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these – Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before as I have also told you in time past that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God”. (Galatians 5:19-21). So if a man is exhibiting these in their lives after they claim to be “born again” then they are clearly lying.

What confuses most people who say they are Christians is that they think they have some godly duty to support their leaders no matter what they do, when in fact the Bible clearly doesn’t say that. It does tell us to obey the ones over us (as long as they do not violate Gods law), to obey the laws of the land, and to pray for our leaders but anything more than is not in the Word of God and was made up by some man. Also, there is no such thing as civic duty in the Bible because the Word tells us to not entangle ourselves in the affairs of the world.

So the short answer is this… If a man is committing evil acts or is evil by nature then we are not to back them. Pray for them yes, but that is all we should do.

Part I - 5 Signs That Your Country Is Being Taken Over By A Tyrant

Soft Tyranny Part I – The 5 Signs of a Soft Tyrant Taking Over Your Country The two major types of dictatorships in the world are “soft” and “hard”, and for this piece I will be using the word “tyrant” as the descriptor for both dictators and tyrants. Hard tyrants are relatively easy to spot and they are usually led by leaders who believe without a doubt in communism. Many of these tyrants come into power by using various “strongman tactics” such as political tactics (stacking the political deck in their favor), personal attacks (removing everyone that disagrees with them), influential tactics (controlling what the press says about them and discrediting, jailing, or killing the ones who don’t), and total military control (including martial law) via a “ coup d'é·tat”. However, n o matter how they do it the end game is always the same; to rule by force and make the country either an authoritarian or totalitarian regime. Many of these “strongman dictators” are not the actua

Quimby and Beyond...

Enter Quimby… The New Thought movement of the late nineteenth century had a profound influence on a number of American leaders in the Divine Healing movement in the first half of the twentieth century who went on to become the fathers of the Positive Confession, or Faith-Formula theology of Pentecostalism.  New Thought was a movement that began after the death of Phineas P. Quimby (1802-66) when a number of his students came together to preserve his teaching. Quimby had developed an alternative system of healing through parapsychology after beginning a career as a mesmerist. Quimby taught that bodily sickness was caused when the mind believed false notions about health and could be healed by correcting these beliefs in the mind. The movement that sprang from his protégé emphasized not only health and healing, but also abundance, prosperity, wealth and happiness. The basic presuppositions of New Thought’s system of divine healing are, firstly, God is all reality and in God is no

Do You Tell The Truth DJT?

Jonathan Karl’s Question: And finally I remember well, you remember well in the campaign, you made a promise. You said, “I will never lie to you.” Can you tell me now, honestly, have you kept that promise at all times? Have you always been  truthful? DJT’s Answer: Well, I try. I do try. I think you try too. You say things about me that aren't necessarily correct [this is called deflection]. I do try, and I always want to tell the truth. When I can, I tell the truth… I have a simple rule and that is if anyone lies to me even one time then I know they will lie to me again if they need to and this man has lied to America thousands of times. Even those close to him say that he will make up his “own truth” when the need arises so he can come out on top and that he has NO issue with telling lies to get ahead. However, those with real spiritual discernment know that he is has been constantly lying to America, however people who claim to be “christians” (aka evangelicals) do
