Why People Who Claim to Be Christians Fall

I've been working hard at trying to take all the books I've written and update them, reading and rewritting them so they are worthy to be published. I've gone through and submitted them and now some of them are already for sale! You can go to my bookstore to look through them if you want, the link is:

http://www.rrb3.com/bookstore/bookstore_index.htm

Anyway, I've got several commentaries I've written, these include those on the book of 1 Thessalonians (although it's still not finished), James, 1 Peter, and 2 Peter. I've gone back and reread these and updated them some, and while I was working on 2 Peter, I noticed something that made me think. That's what I want to talk about in this blog. I think it's very pertinent for our day and age, especially as Christians and Churches sink deeper and deeper into apostasy. So, what I've learned I'll share with you here. I hope this will be a blessing to you, and as Peter said it his epistle, it will help you to "grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." (2 Peter 3:18)

So here's the verse that set me thinking, with the capitalization being my emphasis on the words:

Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for IF YOU DO THESE THINGS, YE SHALL NEVER FALL: (2 Peter 1:10)

Here we are told by the apostle Peter that there are some things that if you do, you shall never fall, or backslide. This verse really jumped out at me. I don't want to fall as a Christian. I don't want to backslide. I want to be a good Christian, standing firm in truth and living for my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

But as I looked at the verse, I thought to myself, "What are those things of which he speaks that can keep me from falling?"

I looked at the context and I found the things of which he spoke were found in the verses above, and there were seven things mentioned in total. They are:

5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

Peter here tells us to give ALL DILIGENCE to the following things which he says will keep a Christian from falling: 1. VIRTUE, 2. KNOWLEDGE, 3. TEMPERANCE, 4. PATIENCE, 5. GODLINESS, 6. BROTHERLY KINDNESS, and 7. CHARITY.

As I looked up each of these in the dictionary I almost wanted to cry. For, so few who claim to be Christians today actually have these characteristics, much less practice them. Why is this?

I looked back up at verse four in the context and read these words:

4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

There is, then, a contrast between those in the world (worldly people) and those who are Christians (partakers of the divine nature). It says that Christians have ESCAPED the corruption of the world and no longer LUST after the things of the world. So obviously the world has fallen because the world doesn't have these things.

If this be true, why then are so many who claim to be Christians today so different from the list of the seven things that Peter gave which will keep a Christian from falling? Instead of virtue, many Christians are full of vice. Instead of knowledge, many are so very ignorant of even the most basic of Bible doctrines. Instead of temperant, many Christians are given to excess. Instead of patience, most are strongly impatient. Instead of godly most are inmoral. Instead of brotherly love and kindess, we find such cruelty and bickering among Christians. And instead of charity there is so much apathy and malice.

In short, it's hard to find anyone nowadays who claims to be a Christian who has all these attributes that Peter lists.

But what's worse was when I came to the verses right after those seven things listed by Peter:

8 For IF THESE THINGS BE IN YOU, and ABOUND, they make you that ye shall neither be BARREN nor UNFRUITFUL in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 But he that lacketh these things is BLIND, and CANNOT SEE afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

One would be very hard pressed to find a Christian today with all seven of these things, but imagine a Christian who not only has these things, but they ABOUND IN him. Wow!

But notice even further that the Scripturs teach us that those who don't have these things are called BLIND. They cannot SEE. They have lost their VISION.

To me this is so very sad, for I see Christians today who claim to be great men of God who are out attacking one another, devouring one another, calling names, and putting others down. While they claim to be "men of God" being used of God, yet they are barren and unfruitful in God's eyes.

But how can this be? How on earth could they even think to call themselves CHRISTIANS when they act the way they do?

What's worse is others who follow these men actually think that by doing what they are doing in namecalling and character assassinating others, that they are STANDING STRONG IN THE FAITH. In other words, they think that a man's meaness means he's a strong Christian. But that's not what the verses above say! If anything, the meaner the Christian, the sooner he's going to FALL according to these verses above, for he is BLIND and can't SEE.

Could it be, then, that's those who claim to be Christians but instead of being virtuous, kind, temperate, and charitable, and are rather cold, hard, and angry are then not truly Christians at all? Could it be?

If they are Christians, they are not good examples of it. And they had better watch out, because the less CHARITY they have, the more blind they'll become and the sooner they'll fall.

With this in mind, I've decided I'm not interested in attacking others personally, whether they claim to be Christians or not. I just don't find in the Bible that that's the CHRISTIAN WAY of doing things.

Instead, I find that we should attack a person's FALSE DOCTRINES if what they are preaching is against the word of God. We might not agree with other Christians, but that doesn't give us a right to put them down and attack them personally. Instead of making it a matter of me against them, or them against me, it should be about WHAT DOES HE TEACH ABOUT SO AND SO AND WHY? If he teaches something contrary to scripture, we should repudiate his false teaching and expose it from the Scriptures. We should not downgrade, ridicule, and lamblast the man, for he just might be right on other things. We should instead say, SO AND SO TEACHES THUS AND SO, BUT THE BIBLE TEACHES THUSLY. That's not an attack! Rather that's the BIBLE verse THEM, not me against them.

In closing, I find that Modern Christianity is not being destroyed by Satan. Nor is it the government or the outside world that is shutting down the Church and bringing it to an end. Rather it is BLIND CHRISTIANS or those who claim they are such, that are falling themselves, and it is they who are making the church come to naught.

They are not following the Apostle Peter in that list of those seven things he claimed that we should give ALL DILIGENCE to.

Rather they are carnal men who with carnal practices claim to serve the Lord. But shouldn't we be busy trying to walk in the Spirit and serving God in the Spirit, and not in the flesh?

I'll let you decide. All I know is I want to give more DILIGENCE in being more virtuous, knowledgeable, temperant, patient, godly, kind, and charitable. I pray that you too would desire and practice the same.

My new bookstore

Well, I'm finally learning how to do this whole "Internet" Highway, bookstore, commerce, thingy. Yep, I'm finally getting with the times, albiet kicking and screaming. (How I miss the old times when there wasn't an internet.)

Anyway, I've learned how to print my books and have them printed. I've also learned how to put them on my website and put them up for sale via Amazon.com, so anyone can buy them.

I'm still working on them and slowly getting them all up. Hopefully, I'll have them all posted soon.

Focusing on Each Other Instead of Focusing on the Issue

I think probably the greatest tool that Satan has is to get people's eyes off of what's happening and getting people's eyes on one another.

As I watch American Politics, I see this is exactly what's happening today with the whole "debt" issue. Democrats are against Republicans and will not pass or sign anything they put out. Republicans are the same way. Thus, they only do what's best for their party. They focus on EACH OTHER instead of on the important ISSUE. They are not interested in what's right and what's best for the country. They are only intersested in themselves and furthering their political careers. Because of this, they are at a standstill, a deadlock, neither one wanting to give an inch, and neither one wanting to compromise with the other. Thus, Satan has won, as nothing can be done.

And who suffers for it? The American People.

Sadly, there is politics in the Church as well. And, all too often this politics mirrors the national politics in Washington. Just as politicians focus on one another rather than on the issue, so too Pastors, Missionaries, Evangelists, etc. focus on one another. And often, they are only interested in making themselves or their "camp" or "Bible College affiliation" look good, while lamblasting and putting down others. This is why there is so much bitter infighting among "Independent Baptist" Preachers. They don't get along, and it's because they focus on EACH OTHER rather than on the differences that supposedly divide them.

Instead of having Bible Studies and looking at truth, and discussing it, most Indies (what I call Independent Baptists) will not even crack open their Bibles and look at it with other ministers. They claim to be Bible Believers, but they refuse to have Bible Studies with others.

Instead they focus on the man himself. Once they find something they can use as an excuse to make someone they don't like look bad, or find a way to make them look not as spiritual as themselves, or somehow make them look stupid, then they can write that person off, and not even look at what that person is teaching. But what if that person has a good point?

The Independent Baptist's answer is: "So what! Who Cares!" And the person is blackballed and his doctrine, ideas, and words are not even looked at.

This is sad, but this is rampant in our churches today. Instead of unity in Christ and uniting around what the Scriptures teach, there is much dissention and division in Christian circles, and very little charity.

I speak from experience. This is what happened to me. I was part of a big Independent Baptist movement. But someone lied about me, and told people I was crazy and such. They said, "Bro. Breaker is against PRAYER all together!"

But that is simply not so. However, because they said it, and they focused on ME instead of on my teaching (which is nothing more than sound Bible Doctrine), I was blackballed and they told those within their group not to even listen to me at all. The focus was on ME, not on the scriptures.

Next, they told people things like, "Breaker has gone off the deep end!"

And finally, they LIED by saying that I called my old Pastor a "heretic." But I never said such a thing. Those were words that a person tried to put in my mouth that I never uttered.

Thus, the focus was on me, not on my teaching. I was a "crazy person" teaching false doctrine in their eyes, and I was ridiculed, mocked, and made fun of. But never once was what I was teaching looked at by any of them.

However, what I was teaching was nothing more than what I was taught from the Bible by the very man who turned against me! I went back and read his commentaries, his tracts, even a letter of his to my own father, and they all confirmed that what he once taught is what I'm teaching, and that I was not the one who changed.

The problem was that he and his croonies had changed and I had not. But I could not turn the focus on them. They would not allow it. If I tried to say, "You have changed your position," then I was labeled the crazy person who was speaking foolishly and the heretic that no one should listen to. They even attacked my credibility, and claimed I wasn't a Pastor, I never led anyone to the Lord, and I never started any Churches in Honduras.

That was fine with me. If they wanted to lie about me and discredit me, not problem. I know it's a lie and so does Jesus. But it does hurt some, especially since they were drawing a line and pushing me across it and telling others not to go along with me in anything.

Truly, I can't wait till the Judgment Seat of Christ, so that God will show them they were wrong.

But that's not important now. What is important is the issue itself.

The Issue once more is this, "Can a person be saved by prayer, and is it possible for a person to be tricked into trusting in their Prayer rather than trusting in Jesus Christ's shed blood alone for salvation?"

The answer is: "No on is saved by their prayer, and YES A PERSON CAN BE DECEIVED INTO THINKING THEIR PRAYER SAVES THEM!" This is exactly what happened to me. It also happened to my wife, and it's happened to many others.

In our day and age of "shallow soulwinning" in which a "soul winner" gives a person a presentation of only three or four verses from the Roman's road and then quickly pressures them to "Repeat a Prayer," it is common to see people tricked or deceived into thinking they are saved BY their prayer. That is they think the prayer itself is the SAVING MEDIUM.

This leads to a person eventually doubting whether they are saved or not, and the remedy for this by those same "soul winners" is for them to just "say the Prayer over again for ASSURANCE." Oftentimes, people pray the prayer over and over again night after night, HOPING they'll be saved because of it. But are they? Are they?

That's the issue, but nobody will touch it. Nobody wants to think that Churches are full of people like I was, who might have sincerely prayed a prayer, but have never been born again. It's because they are trusting in what they've DONE (their prayer), and not in what Jesus DID FOR THEM (in dying on the cross in their place for their sins.)

This "1-2-3, repeat after me" type of soulwinning often does more harm than good, as it does not give a clear presentation of the Gospel. Often, many are left thinking their prayer saves them. But where is this in the Bible? People like this are not saved. They cannot be. For if they trust their prayer, then they trust their own righteousness, and not Christ's alone.

But where are those faithful ministers of the Gospel who are pointing this out? They are few and far between. They don't want to "rock the boat." They just want to go along with what everyone else is doing, especially when it's easy to get a person to "repeat a prayer" and doing so makes it easier to "BRAG UPON YOURSELF and HOW GOOD OF A SOUL WINNER YOU ARE!" (Modern Christianity has become a "braggers club" and it's no longer about Jesus and what he's done for Sinners, rather it's about you and what you do for Jesus.)

So we see the focus is not on the Issue, rather on the man. People who talk like I do, are looked upon as "anti-soul winning." But that's not the case! I am very much for Soul Winning! I'm just against doing it in a shallow manner in which a person can end up deceived into thinking they are saved when they aren't!

But very few want to look at this issue. It's just easier to label someone a "Calvinist" who doesn't do things the same way you do. (I'm very much against Calvinism, by the way!).

So who gets hurt when the focus turns from the issue itself to attacking each other personally? Why lost Sinner's of course. They are the ones losing out. For they are left LOST and still going to Hell, but no one seems to care enough about them to make sure they are presenting them the Gospel clearly, and instructing them plainly to TRUST THE BLOOD OF JESUS ALONE for salvation.

But I care. I care a lot about lost souls. I truly want them to be saved. I also care about lost religious people who think they are saved, but aren't. I want to see them saved as well.

But once again, when I say something like that, the PHARISEES will bypass the issue and go straight to focusing on me, saying things like, "Oh, you just want to talk people out of their salvation! That's all you are interested in."

But that's not true at all! If a person is saved, I don't want to cause doubt. However, at the same time, as I read the scriptures, I see that a person who is saved will have assurance. So could it be that those who don't have assurance aren't saved to begin with, and they are the ones who truly need to be saved?

In closing, it's sad to see how focusing on each other instead of on the issue itself has led not only to the downfall of America and its economy, but also to the downfall of the Church as well. Because "politicians," both secular and religious, would rather play their silly games and exalt themselves in the eyes of others, people get hurt. In American politics, those who get hurt are the American taxpayers, who are asked to pay higher taxes for the stupid spending of those in power. But why should we have to pay for their mistakes and mismanagement funds?

In the religious world, the pride of ministers wanting to be looked upon as right while everyone else is wrong has led to a false gospel and a deceitful plan of salvation which gets a Sinner to DO something with their lips, without trusting only in what Jesus has DONE from the heart. And, even though this method makes the soul winner look good in the eyes of the "brethren" by counting how many people he's gotten to "repeat him in prayer," it doesn't really get a lot of folks truly saved. Instead, lost people suffer for it, as many of them get a false assurance of salvation, thinking they are going to heaven based upon their prayer, rather than on the Biblical means of faith from the heart.

Sadly, the issue is never dealt with. Politicians don't deal with the national debt, and get it paid off completely, and most Preachers don't deal with man's sin debt, pointing him to the shed blood of Christ that paid for it.

Instead, they are happy attacking on another, exalting themselves, and forgetting about the important issues.

Truly the Judgment will be terrifying for such men who only care about themselves rather than truly caring about others enough to deal with the issue so that they might be saved.

This deals with the ISSUE at hand.

An ample quote about Government

I haven't written a lot lately. We are struggling like everybody else from the failed policies of our national leaders. I almost want to just move back to Honduras and live there illegally. At least then I could open a little "pulperia" (small store) in my house and live off the proceeds. And, I wouldn't even have to pay any taxes on it! What a great country!

Anyway, I found a quote today that I thought was worthy of mentioning. It is as follows:

"The sole object and only legitimate end of government is to protect the citizen in the employment of life, liberty, and property, and when the government assumes other functions it is usurpation and oppression."

That quote was by Ezra Taft Benson, as he paraphrased the constitution of the state of Alabama, of which I am a resident.

Notice the words together, "life, liberty, and PROPERTY." These were the original words in the Declaration of Independence, written by Jefferson. However, he later changed his rough draft and instead of leaving the important word "property" he changed it to the phrase, "the pursuit of happiness." And, we have been suffering ever since! Thanks Karl Marx! (I say sarcastically, because it was Marx who said that people's property, is rightfully theirs and was given them by GOD himself, was to be taxed. That's right. Marx believed in taxing what GOD has given to man. How wicked!)

Our government no longer believes in or practices the Declaration of Independence. In fact, our nation is a nation of DEPENDENTS. That's why this whole debt debate is going on today. Demoncrats are trying to hold on to entitlements, which are nothing more than government money given to people.

But what about life, liberty, and property? Well, the government is fast on the track of taking them all away. They can get your property easily. Don't believe it? Just don't pay your "property tax" and see what happens. Plus, with their laws which allow them to enter your home without a warrant they can take whatever property of yours that they want. They further have taken our liberties and are continually doing so. They are spying on people via internet and phone with massive envasions of privacy. They further and passing more and more laws which take away our rights.

All they have left is the "life" one. And with the new healthcare bill, with the "Death Panels" they can not only FORCE you to get and pay for healthcare, but then they set themselves up as gods on a panel to decide whether or not you are worthy to receive it. If it costs too much, then you'll be left without, probably dying much sooner than you might have had you been able to receive treatment.

Yep, what a mess! And that's not all. Did you know that the national debt has increased almost 6 trillion dollars (that's right 6 TRILLION) in just the last several years. Let me make that a little more clear: In just the last several years under the Obama adminstration. The national debt is now 14 TRILLION dollars and counting. If you take that and divide it among every household in America, that comes up to about 35,000 per family. But you know what's interesting? That 6 Trillion of "bailouts" that Obomba's administration has given away to corporations cost the American taxpayer about 17,000 each. That means, they could have just given a check for 17,000 dollars to every American instead of giving it away to banks and corporations deemed "too big to fail," and we still would be at the very same debt level today.

Can you imagine what would have happened if "we the people" received that money instead of the rich international bankers and corrupt wall street executives?

But it didn't happen. The corporations got the money. And, hey, aren't those the "bad guys" if you're a Communist? Aren't they the ones you are supposed to be against? I could have sworn that if you were a socialist, then the "free market" capitalist businesses were your enemy. Hmmm. So why did the government help them out?

So how do we fix this mess? Well, the demoncrats and the Pres are telling us we need to raise taxes. Oh, so we the people need to be the ones to fix this by forking over even more cash, and that will solve the problem. Wait..., what? Wait a minute! Why should we pay for Washington's mess?

I'm not in favor of raising taxes. That is, unless we start with the POLITICIANS first!!! (Have you seen the average salary a senator and representative make?)

Then we could tax corporations, but only those with ties to Washington like GE which because of tax loopholes paid NO TAXES AT ALL last year. Yeah, then we could tax the Federal Reserve. Why not? They are a PRIVATE CORPORATION and not really "federal" at all. We ought to make them pay for using the term "federal" when there's nothing federal about them. Further, we ought to tax the snot out of them for printing phony money out of nothing and then charging us interest for it.

Next, we should tax special interest groups that claim to be "non-profit" but seek profit for a selective few. You know, like SEIU, ACORN, NAACP, etc.

But then they'd probably have a heart attack and get their feelings hurt, running around and claiming "discrimination" and "racism." Yet they can be racist themselves and it's not a problem.

Is anyone seeing a pattern here? Wait a minute! I'm starting to get it. It's starting to sink in. Let's see if I can pen it down just right: "If you are in cahoots with the government, you get tax breaks, and even hand outs, but if you aren't a part of it, then you get taxed and taken from." Isn't that just about the jist of it?

That takes me back to my original quote above:

"The sole object and only legitimate end of government is to protect the citizen in the employment of life, liberty, and property, and when the government assumes other functions it is usurpation and oppression."

When the government gets richer while making you poorer that has to be the very essence of tyranny.

Church Secretaries

It never seems to baffle me how you can listen to preachers preach the Bible, and then when you look at their daily lives and how they do things, you find they go against those very things they are preaching.

As an independent, Independent Baptist, I like to take a long look at things and then sit down and question whether they are right or not according to the scriptures. But, this is something that you aren't supposed to do if you are an Independent Baptist. For in that denomination, you are taught only to obey the Pastor without question and do so without ever wondering if what you are doing is right or not. It's almost become a cult, in which you are pressured to DO something all the time, and never stop to rest or think. (You are also not even supposed to meditate on and spend time in the scriptures, for if you do so, you're labelled a "deeper lifer," whatever that means. No, the emphasis is on toiling and laboring, instead of on praying and preparing).

Because of this, it's become easy for a man who's a preacher or Pastor to deceive his people. He can preach one thing in the pulpit, but then practice another in his daily life, and no one questions it. His congregation is just too busy doing stuff to do so.

The Pastor's also lifted himself and his position up so high, that the sheep are taught to question the man of God is wrong, and to do so is to attack God himself. So in fear, people blindly follow their Pastors without question, doing everything they are told. But what if the Pastor does something that is unscriptural? Shouldn't we have the right to question it and him?

Some do talk to their Pastors and question things. But they usually all receive the same answer. Either they are lamblasted and ridiculed, or they are ostracized by the preacher who calls them "dividers" or "trouble makers" and then they are kicked out. But is that the right way to handle the situation? Certainly not. The Pastor should open the scriptures and prove his position BIBLICALLY from the word of God. The reason so many Pastors don't do this is because they know their positions and even their practices are not Biblical. This is why so many get angry and partake in name calling. They simply don't want to face the facts.

Such is the case in the modern day practice of having women Church Secretaries. Where this practice started is unknown, but it's a realitively new thing, gaining grounding only in the 1960's with the feminist movement and the push to get the woman out of the house and into the work force.

Many Pastors, especially Independent Baptist ones, are against women working, and are quick to point their congregations to the scriptures in showing a woman's position in the home. They quote verses like Titus chapter two, to prove a woman should be a house keeper and not a member of the work force:

1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:

2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

Yet, as clear as the scriptures are that it's "sound doctrine" for a woman to stay at home, and it's "blashpemy" for her to leave her area, there are many Pastors today who go against this scripture by having woman secretaries in their churches.

Is it scriptural to have a woman work in the church? Of course not. Woman can do a lot in the church. But they aren't supposed to have positions of authority, nor are they to work as the secular world, for a paycheck. What a woman does in the church ought to be done for God, not for money. In the Bible, those who are supposed to work in the church in positions of authority are called deacons, and they are only to be MEN (See 1 Tim. 3:10-12).

Why then are there in so many churches Pastors who preach one thing (i.e. women are to be keepers at home, and not in the workforce), yet these same men practice something else (i.e. allowing women to work for a pay check in the church)? Isn't this hypocritical?

And haven't you heard of the terrible stories of Pastors becoming enfatuated with their secretaries and leaving their wives to run off with them? What a tragic and horrible testimony for a man who claims to be a man of God! Sadly, it's becoming more and more common. I don't know any one who claims to be a Christian who hasn't heard of such a story happening in their town, city, state, denomination, or fellowship. So why do we allow this to continue? Shouldn't we leave off the temptation all together by hiring only male secretaries?

By preaching one thing and then practicing another, Pastors have allowed the worldly influence of feminism to rear its ugly head into the Church. By hiring women to do the work of secretary, when the Bible says that men should be the ones in the work force and not women, Pastors have gone against the very word of God they claim to preach and believe. And not only that, they are teaching the next generation of girls that it's okay for them too to go out into the work force and leave the home. This tears up the family. Both husband and wife working outside the home leaves the kids in the hands of the state and the state schools, which in turn indoctrinates them in the ways of the world, and not in the things of God. (And we wonder why our children don't want to go to church!? It's because they have no desire to.)

God said a woman was to be a keeper at home for a reason. It was for the mother to take care of the child, and to teach him or her the ways of God. She was to be with her kids and train them up in the Lord. She was to be an anchor in the family. By taking her out of the home, the family is destroyed, and so are the children.

So why, oh why, would Pastors who know this and preach this, then turn around and practice it by hiring women to fill paying jobs in the church? How can they preach on thing and then practice another? It simply makes no sense.

College Education Makes You Dumber!

I've always viewed the world and it's way of doing things as "The System." It's a form of living set up by Satan to get people to think and act the way he pleases. It's not about doing right or living a godly life for Jesus Christ, while adhereing to his word. Rather, it's propogandizing kids and teach them how to fit in with the New World Order.

College fits into Satan's plan in several ways. First, it takes away all the morales a young person might have (i.e. everyone knows colleges now days are just "party schools" where children get away from their parents and sow their wild oats). Free love, parties, orgies, drunken revelry, etc. are all encouraged in College, especially in Fraternities and Sororities. Even homosexual organizations enjoy no opposition in recruiting the youth into their ranks, exhorting them to experiment with their bodies to see if they are straight or not. In short, College is a place Satan uses to debase the bodies of young people.

Second, college is a place in which the Devil destroys the minds of young people. In almost all colleges, God and the Bible are made fun of, while young people are instructed to "rebel" and "think for themselves." But rather than teaching young people how to think, colleges teach them what to think. Narrow-minded professors push Evolution, Revolution, Communism, and Eastern Mystism on the students, telling them that those are the best forms of spiritualism and government. But rather than comparing them with others, they teach those only while ridiculing everything else.

Further, they teach young people that there are no absolutes. Thus, everything is abstract, and that means you can never have any right or wrong. With this mentality, a child is ruined, never knowing what's good or bad, and they will usually live a life full of guilt from the many mistakes they make continually from day to day. Often this leads to heavy drinking, drug use, and suicide. College offers no hope, and because of this, students are hopeless in the world without the joy and peace that only Jesus Christ offers.

Finally, the outrageous college tuition fees lead most students to secure student loans which they most often NEVER find themselves able to repay. In debt they are pressured to find good jobs in order to pay off their loans. But with the failing economy, they struggle to make ends meet. Soon, they find they are working a 9 to 5 job not to get ahead, but just to keep from getting behind on their bills. They become nothing less than indentured servants working in the rat race for the sole purpose of paying the interest on their debts. Very seldom do they ever get ahead. So in debt they live rest of their lives never knowing the joy and happiness of having a savings account and being free from the burden of oweing so much to others.

Truly, colleges today make people worse off than better. They also teach them to be good robots working within The System. They become slaves which can't think outside the box. And rather than being taught truth, honor, and morality, they are left hopeless, with no one to rely upon but themselves, making them even more prideful and selfish.

I write this, because my wife was on Youtube today and watched a really great documentary about colleges and how they leave people poor and ignorant. You can watch the video yourself at:

College Conspiracy

After you click above, look for the video entitled "College Conspiracy." It is worth a watch!

The Age of "Anti"

I seems like everyone in the world today is against something rather than for something. It's sad, but it appears people have been taught to be hostile rather than hospitable. And, instead of standing for something, the world as a whole is focused on tearing things down.

You don't have to look far to see all the movements against things. You have your:

Anti-Colonialists

Anti-Capitalists

Anti-Creationists

Anti-Christians

Anti-God

Anti-Victorian Morales

Anti-Government

And more.

They all are adamantly against something or someone and seek to destroy it or them. And if you are a Bible-believer, you can't help by see why, as the Bible clearly tells us that in the last days this will happen. It tells us we are in an age of apostasy, in which people turn away from the truth, and the Bible further states that after the rapture the "ANTI-Christ" will come on the scene and rule for seven years.

Maybe there is so much anti in the world today because people are just simply preparing for their leader, who is ANTI-Christ Jesus.

At any rate, it's strange how many people are against things instead of for things. And if you do find them for anything, it's usually something the Bible is very clearly against. Sound like a conspiracy to you???
