(Chapter 2 of forthcoming book:)
The Church has retreated by gutting the definition of “Christianity.” It is reduced it to non-sense. We have surrendered vast swaths of territory to Satan in an attempt to appear reasonable to an unreasonable world.

Surrender started around the time of the French Revolution when rebellious men (atheists) said, effectively, “there is no god.” Emmanuel Kant elevated the status of our senses above faith. “Doubt everything that cannot be observed by yourself,” was the motto. Yet this is patently foolish — any man trapped in a house cannot know what is outside. God is outside and we are trapped in His creation seeking a way beyond God. That is the essence of our rebellion. It begins with defying God, doubting God, denying God.

So great is our Hubris that man has claimed to be the inventor of God to explain the unexplainable, and that now in our arrogance and pride and “science” we discard Him like an old diaper for a new one.

This is the arrogance and boastful words of the Beast of Revelation. This is the arrogance of the False Prophets who claims to speak for God and makes everyone worship this beast. That is the current Church.

Revelation 13 describes the current world empire that we live under:

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.
It was also given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them, and authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him. Rev 13:5-7 NASB

The Church has participated in this rebellion. We have reduced the Gospel. We have denied the Scripture so that nothing is left. Even in the Incarnation of God is appropriated by the Church when we declare the “we all are children of God” and God loves everyone and “God is in us,” and we all have the spark of Divinity. Jesus Christ is put enlightened man. This is the road to hell and the Church preaches.

Evolution
The Church denies the first chapter of Genesis by, at best, its silence. At worst by preaching that Christianity is compatible with Evolution. The Gospel is no more compatible with evolution that Satan is with Jesus Christ. If we are put a byproduct of time and chance, then you have removed all need for a Redeemer, a Saviour, or for God Himself. From what must we be saved if we have evolved from nothing to something wonderful and wise and strong and beautiful?

Genesis makes clear that plants and animals reproduce only “after their own kind.” Nine times in Genesis 1 the Scriptures says the plants and animals reproduce “after their own kind.” This is a direct refutation of evolution from one kind to another kind. Sea anemones do not reproduce into Octopi and Octopi into fish or whales or gorillas. This is all a lie that the Church either participates in order remains silent before. Why should God support a Church that rejects Him?

For God to support the Church in its current theological state is to demand that God serve Man. “We are independent,” says the Church. “We will use the Holy Scriptures as we see fit,” and God is to bless our rebellion. This is the way of the apostate Jews who had the Law and the Prophets and developed their own oral traditions and precepts (the Traditions of the Elders in Matthew 15:1-9) that is eventually written down and has become the Talmud. This is the Temptation of Eve — to reject Adam’s guidance. Adam was the Prophet of God to Eve and Lucifer offered her a third way: “do what you think is best.” And the Church travels down this path instead of listening to the Word of God, believing and obeying.

The Church is far down that path of apostasy.

This is not a matter of sin or personal morality. This is a matter of belief and doctrine and teaching. This kind of theological rebellion always leads to moral rebellion. For if there is no right and wrong, if we are byproducts of time and chance, of what use is morality and of what need for a Redeemer?

The Firmament
There is a Firmament over the earth — a hard dome that separates the earth realm from heaven. Has this been preached in our churches over the last century? The stars stand in witness to heaven’s power and glory. The moon has its own light and brightness. The earth is established and fixed. God did not disappear from His own creation. We have established our own lies and spread them. The church is silent in their lies.

Satan, the Bible teaches, is the Great Deceiver. He deceives the world. He deceives the nations. He has deceived the world and the church into accepting the idea that we are put biological flesh attached to a spinning world going round a wandering star captured by marauding galaxy hurled meaninglessly through endless infinite expanding space. There is no God — we created God == now that we know the truth we discard him — he lacks usefulness to us.

All our TVs shows preach this (Star Trek). Our movies proclaims this (2001 Space Odyssey). Our grade Schools demand that children memorize this and our university professors (the High Priests and Prophets of our secular Religion) write new Scriptures to and teach it as truth.

An Embarrassed Church
Where is the Church? The Church is embarrassed by the First Chapter of Genesis so we have discarded it. It is not taught. We are ashamed of it and refuse to Teach what He taught. This is the beginning of the Churches betrayal of Jesus Christ, the Word of God.

The preachers and Pastors justify their rebellion with non-sense like “It’s not essential for salvation.” And off we go down the path of apostasy as the ancient Jews did. Soon the the Ten Commandments are not essential for salvation and they are not taught. We abandon the idea of bringing discipline to the nations. We do not believe the Salt should penetrated into the meat to preserve it, so we erect boundaries around our truncated gospel so that it never infects the world or its institutions.

What is left to save? Nothing.

What is the effect of this rebellion? It is the debauched societies that are the ashes of Christendom. Our Gospel is meaningless and ineffective because it is not His Gospel. We have abandoned the Word of God because it is unreasonable, wrong, superstitious, and old. We are more enlightened than the Word of God so we twist the words and arrive at a Satanic religion not wholly dissimilar to Talmudic Judaism. The phrase “Jesus is a Jew” is vastly more influential than that the Jews are “the children of the devil” and the “synagogue of Satan.” (See my book “Jews, Europeans, and Redemption, Volume 1” available on Amazon and other outlets).

We seek to MAGA without Christ. We want revival without His Word. We want his power to do our own will. We elevate the Cross but flee from conflict. The proof that what I say is true is the condition of our atheistic debauched societies where child sacrifice and mutilation are “human rights” and the preaching of the Words of Jesus Christ (John 8:44, Rev 2:9, Rev 3:9) are condemned even from the pulpits.
