Apostles of American Thought
Most Christians hold to the heresy that Jesus Christ is a “personal religious belief.”
What do I mean by this?
- Jesus Christ is not a religion.
- He is not a personal belief system.
- Jesus Christ is not a teacher of morality.
- Jesus Christ is not even a “good man.”
These may be true in the narrowest sense, but these statements damn Him with faint praise.
- It is like saying “Donald Trump is a good golfer.”
- Or, “Thomas Jefferson has a bastard child by a black woman.”
- Or, “Hillary Clinton founded a non-profit to help Haitians.”
They are only true in the narrowest sense; These statements effectively occlude the fact that “Trump is the President,” and that Thomas Jefferson was the primary author of the Constitution,” and that “Hillary Clinton was secretary of State, First Lady, an wielded enormous political influence in the US and around the world.”
When a Christians says, “I believe in Jesus,” what does that even mean?
Does that Christian also believe in Thomas Jefferson? Great. Fantastic.
Does that Christian also believe in Evolution? Great. So do most people.
When a Christian say “Jesus Christ is the Saviour,” what is he saying?
The agnostic responds: “Great. He’s the savior. Fine, let’s move on.
“No, but He died for us!” Says the Christian.
“Yeah, great, my nephew died for us too, in Fallujah,” says the agnostic.
In other words, “Saviour from what? A fantasy judgment day that Christians believe in? Great.
What has that got to do with anything in the world at all?”
Tucker and the Jew
To make this more clear, let me share a conversation between Brett Weinstein and Tucker Carlson on a recent podcast. Tucker expressed that he was a Christian, but was good friends with Moslems. Weinstein did not express a religion, but expressed the fundamental desire what diverse people could get along and live in a prosperous country where everyone could grow their slice of the pie, and government would serve them properly.
The context of their conversation was this Third Gulf War, as well as the growing sense that, in America, the Government serve interests other than the majority of Americans, and, that “democracy” has become the illusion of self-determination in order to maintain the legitimacy of a regime that really does care about average Americans.
In no sense whatsoever did either the Jew of the Christian introduce the fact that Jesus Christ is the Creator of everything and that He demands that men obey Him and His Law (the Ten Commandments). Nor that God judges nations, as well as individuals, for disobedience to His Law.
This concept simply did not exist in the most important conversation men could have — how to live better, how to take care of their fellow man better, how to take care of the families better. No, not at all.
It was as if “Christianity” was but a “religion” that men could sprinkle over their lives in order to to become better. Tut that “religion” could just as well be substituted for any other sincerely held belief that treated people decently.
In the most important conversation one could have, God is dead, effectively, for both the Christian and the Jew. God wasn’t even asked to sit down for in interview — God can share snacks in the ante-room with Moslems, Hindus, and atheists, but He really does not matter when serious men gather. That was the unspoken premise of their converstation and that is exactly the arrogance and blasphemy of the beasts and dragon revealed in the Revelation.
For the Christian, Jesus is a bumper sticker on an old truck — a seriously loved truck — deeply so. But He is neither the engine nor brakes nor steering, let alone the gasoline that makes it all go.
This is the arrogance of our age — against Heaven.
That’s the best minds in America.
Christian and Jew.
The Most Important
What if the most important factor in human success— personal and social, familial, and national — was obedience to Jesus Christ? What is this was really true?
There is a passage in the Bible that speaks of a people who once knew God, believed in Him (as more that a “personal” religion) and actually obeyed and worshipped Him as a social unit — as an entire nation. That nation consisted of the offspring of Jacob, who was renamed Israel. But along the way they rejected the God of their ancestors. They found a better way, in their own minds. They kept the forms and customs of their ancestors, but rejected the doctrine. More accurately, the “reinterpreted” the doctrine. They found that the written Word too constricting. So they worshipped God/god/gods in their own way. The followed what worked for them. It was their personal religion.
God punished that nation, but Israel did not recognize it. They wrestled on hard times — things were not going well for them nationally. Jeremiah shows up and said “Hey, Israel, you are apostate from God. You can’t just do your own thing. You accept as normal immorality and Sabbath breaking. This other nation (Babylon) is going to punish you. What did they do to Jeremiah? They tried to kill Jeremiah. They said, essentially, “we are the greatest nation on earth! You do not speak for God. We are a great people and God will destroy our enemies because we are on God’s side.”
Turns out Jeremiah was right. Babylon destroyed Jerusalem. Then the people asked Jeremiah, “what should we do according to God?” Jeremiah gave them instructions and they rejected it. Their response was similar to our own MAGA movement which mimics ancient Israel — we are going to do what we did before. When we did what we did before we were prosperous. Here are their words:
“We will not listen to the message you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord! We will certainly do everything we said we would: We will burn incense to the Queen of Heaven and will pour out drink offerings to her just as we and our ancestors, our kings and our officials did in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. At that time we had plenty of food and were well off and suffered no harm. But ever since we stopped burning incense to the Queen of Heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have had nothing and have been perishing by sword and famine.”
The women added, “When we burned incense to the Queen of Heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, did not our husbands know that we were making cakes impressed with her image and pouring out drink offerings to her?”
Jeremiah 44:16l-19.
Tucker and Weinstein, the Christian and the Jew, contemplate the end of America as we know it. They are in unity because Jesus Christ really doesn’t matter to either one of them. Tucker represents the entire Christian Church in American with very few exception, Protestant and Catholic alike. Jesus Christ — God — has nothing to do with anything serious. This is the reason there is no conflict between the two — they agree even before their conversatoin that Jesus Christ “just doesn’t matter.”
That is the blasphemy and heresy of modern Judeo-Christians — men who call themselves Christians.
What matters to these men? The old ways matter: economic prosperity above all, “freedom” to burn incense to the Queen of heaven if one choses, the unity of Americans, and the denial that Jesus Christ holds significance in matters of national importance. Proclaiming that “Jesus is Lord” is deeply offensive to the “rights of man.” But no one is upset about it because Christians who say it don’t even believe in it; this conversation demonstrates it.
Jesus Christ? Who? God? For American Christians, He doesn’t even matter enough to be curse or denounce. He is completely irrelevant — He is reduced to a “sincerely held belief” by some people. This is heresy, arrogance and blasphemy all rolled up on a big fat cigar.
Conclusion:
This is why we are damned. Two of the most serious people in our country — thought leaders — Apostles of our American belief system — consider Jesus Christ so irrelevant they won’t even say his name. The Christian, perhaps out of tradition. (I mean, who really says “Jesus Christ” in public except to swear?) Or maybe out of a sense of respect for the Jew, who as a matter of everything Jewish simply rejects Jesus Christ. And so the American Christian has more respect for the Jew than for his alleged “personal savior.” Because “serious people don’t talk that way.”
This is the arrogance of the American. It is the blasphemy of the American Christian. Both channel the spirit of the beast, and of the dragon that rules the world.
They proclaim loudly that “we are all one, and Jesus Christ has no place of Authority in our system.” They are in agree on that. Unless that changes in the heart of the America Christian Church, there is no hope for us, not any more than there was for ancient Israel in the time of Jeremiah.
“And the dragon stood on the sand of the seashore.
Then I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names. And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast; they worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?” There was given to him a mouth speaking arrogant words and blasphemies, and authority to act for forty-two months was given to him. And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, those who dwell in heaven.”

PS: I like Tucker Carlson. Never met the guy, of course, but I’m grateful that he has found his bearings and speaks powerfully in defense of many good things, especially in the defense of Christians. The above article is not a personal attack on either men, it is using both men to reflect on who we (Americans and Christians) are as a people. They reflect us and what we believe. And we have come up quite short in the eyes of Heaven. Christ is King.
The Antichrist is Here. Now.
