Posts of WOWComm RSSMon, 06 Jul 2020 22:55:46 GMT By Lawrence Reed                                   Socialism is making a big comeback.Antifa, a radical collection of communists and socialists, is attracting headlines everywhere. Membership in the Democratic Socialists of America has soared in recent months, according to The Atlantic. A poll last year showed that 70 percent of millennials said they’d vote for a socialist for president.And as socialism has come back into vogue, more and more of its champions are trotting out a favorite talking point: Jesus was a socialist.Painting Jesus RedThose fast-growing Democratic Socialists of America — home to Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — have gotten in on the action. Kelley Rose, founder of a Democratic Socialists chapter, told NPR, “If anyone was ever a socialist, it was Jesus.”Just a couple of weeks ago, London’s Express newspaper reported that high-ranking British Labour Party politician John McDonnell told an interviewer, “I still see Jesus as a socialist.” (McDonnell has described his vision for Britain as “socialism with an iPad.” He added that Jesus’s “life on Earth was a demonstration, for me, of real socialism.”On Twitter, progressives use the phrase “Jesus was a socialist” as the ultimate comeback, as if there could be no rejoinder.Teacher and activist Ivonne Rovira encouraged this tactic in an op-ed for Forward Kentucky. In a piece headlined “Jesus Christ, Super Socialist,” Rovira told readers, “Next time someone calls you a socialist for being a progressive, here’s what to do: make your face light up and say, ‘Thank you! I try to be a good Christian!’ . . . It will give you an opening to explain how the Bible backs up your beliefs.”There’s only one problem with Rovira’s claim: It’s dead wrong.Christ Didn’t Forcibly Share the WealthThe fact is, nothing in the New Testament supports the claims of socialists and progressives who...

God is emphatically telling the American Church, “Speak now, or forever hold your peace.” Whatever we are going to say, whatever we are going to do, whatever action we are going to take to protect our rights as Christians and Americans, we must do now.Doubt my words at your own peril. Churches are about be closed forever. People of faith will soon be marginalized, both socially and economically.  What we are talking about here is nothing short of your children’s and your grandchildren’s future. They will live in a world where they will be targeted for the faith you have given them. And the worst part is: you will not be here to protect them when they endure the worst of it.Listen closely—the threat I am describing is not years away, it is not even months away, it is days away. Yes, absolutely, we are days away from the new excuse the Democrats are preparing to use to wipe out both the First and Second Amendments to the Constitution.Here is what has happened to justify the urgency of my writing. Satan has been working on this masterstroke of tyranny for years. The tapestry of lies he has woven is the greatest manipulation of truth in all of history. It transforms light into darkness, and darkness into light. It changes hatred into love, and love into hatred. It makes racism equality and equality racism.  They have left few, if any, words that carry their original meanings.The web of evil that has fallen over all of America is clearly described in Isaiah 59:4-8:“No one calls for justice,Nor does any plead fo...

]]>Sun, 05 Jul 2020 12:19:15 GMTOver the years of reading his commentaries I've found Michael Brown to be a well reasoned thinker, an articulate communicator and his predictions are accurate. This article is just another tale of today's decadence and moral decay.********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************HERE COMES POLYAMORY, JUST AS WE PREDICTEDMichael BrownLet me be totally clear at the outset. One of the purposes of this article is to say, "I told you so!" Or, more precisely, many of us have been predicting this moment for years. As reported in The New York Times, "A Massachusetts City Decides to Recognize Polyamorous Relationships. The city of Somerville has broadened the definition of domestic partnership to include relationships between three or more adults, expanding access to health care." Is anyone really surprised?After all, if the winning mantras of the same-sex "marriage" movement have been "Love is love" and "Love wins" and "I have the right to marry the one I love," why limit that number to two? Isn't that discriminating against love? Isn't that simply carrying over the outdated, outmoded, limiting ways of the past?To this day, in all my dialogue and debate with LGBTQ activists and their allies, I have yet to hear a reasonable explanation of why marriage should be limited to two people if any two people can marry. Why limit the union to two people? Based on what? All the solid arguments for limiting marriage to two people are, ultimately, arguments for marriage being the union of a male and a female. All other arguments fall short. Very short. (For a glaring illustration, see here.)When it comes to polyamory, which can include virtually any combination or number of men and women, on what basis should the government not recognize such relationships? Is not love still love? Does not love still win? And is no... Read more

]]>Sat, 04 Jul 2020 12:49:29 GMTI recently posted an article under the subject: Instagram Brands Christian Worship 'Harmful' and before the article I included the commentary below.Last Thursday I was on a conference call in which Tony Perkins (president of the Family Research Council) shared what he thought Father was saying and doing during this time. At the end of his sharing the moderator, Joseph Mattera asked him 3 questions. The 1st question pertained to his reaction/response to the USA Supreme Courts' decision to change the definition of sex from gender (male/female) to any new designation. Tony Perkins' response was that it was a "kick in the gut"not just to him but which reverberated through the Body of Christ, especially the "religious right".As Tony Perkins shared I was reminded that the majority of the nine (9) supreme court judges are Republican/conservative appointees and the last 2 justices (Gorsuch & Kavanaugh) are Trump appointees. Ronald Regan coined a phrase "trust & verify" which Republicans/conservatives applied in many scenarios including the appointment of USA supreme court judges. "Trust & verify" like many other things man says sounds good on the surface but is backwards according to Kingdom standards which say "verify and trust". Therefore by their fruits you shall know them. Matt 7:20What Tony Perkins was in effect saying is that we (Christsons/Ekklesia) had been hoodwinked and led to believe that the majority of USA Supreme court judges who are Republican/conservative appointed could be trusted to bring forth judgements/rulings that would more closely reflect God's heart and kingdom standards. When push came to shove on Monday, June 15th many of the trusted but not verified Supreme court judges determined that as regards discrimination in the workplace the word "sex" has greater meaning than gender (male/female). The ruling first applies to L.G.B.T.Q. but it opens the doors for applications and rulings yet unimaginable.Well the unimaginable applications didn'... Read more

]]>Tue, 30 Jun 2020 20:59:40 GMTBelow **** is an article I received yesterday that addresses how two "woke" pastors have addressed the issue of racism and I think it represents the thinking of many people, including xtns. I believe the author has articulated his perspective well and hit the proverbial nail on the head by saying "healing must be grounded in truth " If not, what’s the point? ....Just talk to a psychiatrist." IPsa 14:1-3 The fool has said in his heart, There is no God! They acted corruptly; they have done abominable works, there is none who does good. Jehovah looked down from Heaven on the sons of men, to see if there were any who understood and sought God. All have gone aside, together they are filthy; there is none who does good, no, not one.Mans' intellect and ingenuity has developed and discovered many ways of improving his daily lot in this realm. Commensurate to this mans' Godless image and nature has devolved and degraded into every manner of evil imaginable which is exactly what David prophesied. Although David did not address the subject directly I believe his premise holds true that to enter into discussion with God deniers is to foray into the territory of no absolute Truth and will prove to be frustrating and fruitless.After His resurrection Jesus met with His disciples and taught something extremely important. Lk 24:27 Then beginning with Moses and [throughout] all the Prophets, He went on explaining and interpreting to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning and referring to Himself.God's plan for creation was/is hidden in the law and the prophets of the Old Testament. Jesus was concealed within these and when He came to earth He fulfilled the Law and the prophets , thus establishing Father's plan for creation. Mans' religious, political, judicial, economic, educational, etc. systems are no longer able to control and/or quell the fallen nature of man, thus we are witnessing their collapse and hearing the amplified groans of creation for deliveran...

]]>Mon, 29 Jun 2020 11:28:08 GMTWhen I read Michael Brown's article (below ****** ) I was reminded of what has become a famous quote of Martin Niemöller a Lutheran pastor who dared to stand up and speak out against Hitler and the Nazis. His reward for doing so was to spend the last seven years of Nazi rule in concentration camps.First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.                        Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak  out— because I was not a trade unionist                       Then  they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.                       Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.           My sense is that the multi pronged leftist/progressives/neo socialist/anti-Christ agendas continue exerting their influence upon politicians, media and tech companies, businesses, etc. and are          gaining momentum. As a result of their growing bravado  they bring under their self righteous scrutiny, all who will not bow their knee to their definitions, demands and decrees.Thursday  I was on a conference call in which Tony Perkins (president of the Family Research Council) shared  what he thought Father was saying and doing during this time. At the end of his sharing the moderator, Joseph Mattera asked him 3 questions.
