??? WHY HAS UNESCO HIDDEN DeANGELIS PROFILE ???

DeANGELIS DENIES UNESCO FUNDING ON X (formerly Twitter) WHERE HE HAS MORE THAN A FEW INFORMED CRITICS DUE TO HIS UNESCO AND OTHER TIES.

WHEN HIS CRITIC POSTED THE FOLLOWING-

DeANGELIS RESPONDED –

Corey A. DeAngelis, school choice evangelist

@DeAngelisCorey

Hey

@norinrad10

“Do you want to provide any evidence at all that I’m “cashing checks” from UNESCO or are you going to keep making stuff up?”

BUT HE WOULD KNOW THAT UNESCO IS NOT A FUNDING SOURCE BUT RATHER RECEIVES GRANT FUNDING FROM ROCKEFELLER/ FORD AND OTHER GLOBALIST FOUNDATIONS.

??? DOES DeANGELIS ORGANIZATIONS RECIEVE MONEY FROM ANY OF THESE GLOBAL GOALS FUNDERS WHO FUND UNESCO? THAT IS A MORE ACCURATE QUESTION.

DeANGELIS DRAWS FIRE AS WELL FOR HIS TIES TO BETSY DeVOS AND HIS LACK OF BACKGROUND AS AN EDUCATOR.

BACK TO UNESCO . Again DeAngelis arena of expertise with UNESCO is:

Fields of expertise: Economic policy / inclusive economic development, Education

Corey DeAngelis open advocacy for School Choice and Vouchers is going STATE By STATE

EXAMPLE

THE CONCERNS RELATED TO DeANGELIS AND MAINSTREAM CONSERVATIVE ORGANIZATIONS WHO ENDORSE VOUCHERS.

Lisa Logan

“Meet Corey DeAngelis. He’s a lobbyist for the movement trying to get states to funnel public dollars into private education (ESAs/vouchers). Wouldn’t be a shame if everyone tagged @coreydeangelis asking why he was an expert for UNESCO’s Inclusive Policy Lab? Pot, meet kettle .. Especially since UNESCO pronounced in all their recent papers that they wanted to use school choice as a way to make ALL CHOICES subject to government accountability & regulations that push the UN’s agenda.”

“We deserve answers on HIS connections, too.”

MORE FROM PUBLIC SCHOOL EXIT ADVOCATES ALEX NEWMAN AND LiISA LOGAN

NEWMAN-WARNS

““It will allow for the collection of all children’s social and emotional data to measure
compliance for their future social credit system driven by ESGs,” she added. “Don’t fall
for it.” Parents Incredibly, parents are described variously in the report commissioned by UNESCO as “stakeholders” and even “vested interests” to be overcome by the government.

Enter “Public-Private Partnerships,” often known as PPPs.
These PPPs represent a model in which profits can flow to private interests, as long as
those interests do what the government wants. Critics have regularly derided the
approach — widely supported among global elites at the World Economic Forum — as
state socialism, corporatism, and fascism. Think Nazi Germany: Companies could remain in private hands, as long as they served the state.”

“According to the report, PPP schools are not “exempt from complying with centrally
defined curricula, learning standards or student admissions criteria, among other public
regulations,” the report says, ominously”

LISA LOGAN WARNS:

One entity who is very transparent about the strings attached to government
money is UNESCO, the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural
Organization, who’s been charged with seeing the U.N.’s Sustainable
Development Goal (SDG) 4 (Quality and Inclusive Education for All) through
to completion by 2030.
12 This subject was addressed in a background paper 13 commissioned for their Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report that was highlighted in the article The Strings of School Choice.
14 In it, the authors lay out how public money funding private schools through school choice (and the public regulation that comes with it) can be utilized “as the main policy option to tackle education inequalities resulting from private actors’ involvement in the
provision of education.”

Lisa Logan article also warns of the post Covid Monitoring Report from UNESCO.

CONCLUSION.

Nothing has changed with UNESCO throughout it’s entire existence and YET at no time in modern history has private Christian education shown more promise and more opportunity to free a generation from the grips of massive global deceptions. WHY would conservatives, Christian leaders and PARENTS think that exchaning the freedoms of private eduction for the SHACKLES of agenda driven public funds and the advocay of a UNESCO “Evangelist” would be the path forward from this moment of opportunity?

Private education is at a cross roads. The path less traveled might seem steep and costly BUT not when compared to the SLIPPERY SLOPE of “School Choice ” and public “Vouchers”. The future- FAITH and lives of our children and grandchildren depend on the choices made at this crossroads. Don’t be fooled by voices from the belly of the public and global education beast.

GALATIONS 5 :1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

2nd Peter 2:

Deceptions of False Teachers

¹⁸For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. ¹⁹While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into ^[k]bondage. ²⁰For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. ²¹For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. ²²But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

DOUG WILSON & CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM:DANCING WITH FOOLS ON THE EDGE OF THE ABYSS.

Classical Christian education

Wilson has been an advocate for Homeschooling and Classical Christian Educations but also poses a threat to the movement with his extreme views on so many issues. Wilson’s fringe “cult -like” approach leaves Christian private education and homeschooling open to the classic villification by its critics who wish to abolish it.

TheologIical – fringe Calvinist -The Gospel Coalition Endorsement-

Reformed theology- Wilson is at times closely associated with NEO Calvinist like TGC

Example Endorsement of one of his books by one of WORST OF TGC camp editor Joe Carter. Wilson enjoys high praise from many in these and similar Neo-Cavinist circles.

Review

“If you combined G. K. Chesterton, H. L. Menken, and P. G. Wodehouse and mixed them with evangelicalism, you’d produce a writer like Douglas Wilson. Not only is Wilson one of our finest writers; he’s a superb reader and an excellent guide to the writing of luminaries such as Chesterton, Menken, and Wodehouse. Whether introducing you to authors you’ve never read or reacquainting you with old favorites, Writers to Read will help you become a better reader.”
―Joe Carter, Editor, The Gospel Coalition; contributor, NIV Lifehacks Bible

Wilson’s Calvinism is always edgy- loving controversy – radical -fringe and dangerously appealing to younger more radical Neo Calvinist pastors

Eschatology

Wilson holds to a view of Christian eschatology known as postmillennialism.

“Postmillennialism expects that eventually the vast majority of people living will be saved. Increasing gospel success will gradually produce a time in history prior to Christ’s return in which faith, righteousness, peace, and prosperity will prevail in the affairs of men and of nations. After an extensive era of such conditions Jesus Christ will return visibly, bodily, and gloriously, to end history with the general resurrection and the final judgment after which the eternal order follow”

“Although some postmillennialists hold to a literal millennium of 1,000 years, other postmillennialists see the thousand years more as a figurative term for a long period of time (similar in that respect to amillennialism). Among those holding to a non-literal “millennium” it is usually understood to have already begun, which implies a less obvious and less dramatic kind of millennium than that typically envisioned by premillennialists, as well as a more unexpected return of Christ.”

“Postmillennialism also teaches that the forces of Satan will gradually be defeated by the expansion of the Kingdom of God throughout history up until the second coming of Christ.” (Wiki overview)

Wilson and other Calvinist views on Eschacatology embrace “REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY”

Replacement theology, also CALLED supersessionism, is a Christian doctrine that the Christian Church has replaced the Jewish people as God’s chosen people. The doctrine states that the New Covenant through Jesus Christ has replaced the Mosaic covenant. This in turn feeds their Dominionist and Chrisitan Nationalist worldview.

(NOTE A FELLOW CALVINIST VIEW OF WILSON’S FLAWED BRAND OF COVENANT REPLACEMNT THEOLOGY)

“Defining the Covenant”

“To this point, it should be clear that the “covenant with Hagar” is key to Wilson’s brand of soft supersessionism. What’s equally clear, however, is that this particular covenantal arrangement evades precise definition, and what elements have been made plain at times appear entirely incompatible with a historic Reformed covenant theology.”

Troubled view on Dominionism

Federal Vision

“Wilson’s views on covenant theology have caused some controversy as part of the Federal Vision theology, partly because of its perceived similarity to the New Perspective on Paul, which Wilson does not fully endorse, though he has praised some tenets.^[13] The Reformed Presbyterian Church in the United States declared his views on the subject to have “the effect of destroying the Reformed Faith”. (Wiki explainer and links )

Includes concept of Dominionism or Dominion Theology

“Dominion theology, also known as dominionism, is a group of Christian political ideologies that seek to institute a nation governed by Christians and based on their understandings of biblical law. Extents of rule and ways of acquiring governing authority are varied.”

BUT WHO IS IN CHANGE IN WILSON’S WORLD- GOD OR FRINGE CALVINIST LIKE HIM?

Wilson SMOOTHLY presents his Christian Nationalism in the context of advocating for a Theocracy where God rules society.

From Wilsons book “Mere Christendom”

“Why are we so afraid of theocracy? What might happen? Might we go on a rampage and kill 60 million babies? Yeah, that would be bad. Better not risk it.”

“Might we set up a surveillance state, with camera clusters pointed in every direction at all the intersections? Right—theocracies are terrible like that. The real reason why our current rulers want us to react violently whenever we hear the word theocracy is that petty gods are always jealous of their position, and dread any talk of a Lord who rose from the dead.”

REMEMBER SOME EXTREME CALVINIST- INCLUDING JOHN CALVIN HIMSELF HAVE A HISTORY OF RULING WITH A TWISTED VIEW OF AUTHORITARIAN TYRANNY.

Discussions on slavery

“Wilson’s most controversial work is considered to be his pamphlet Southern Slavery, As It Was, which he co-wrote with Christian minister J. Steven Wilkins. In it, Wilkins wrote that “slavery produced in the South a genuine affection between the races that we believe we can say has never existed in any nation before the War or since.”^[16] Louis Markos notes that “though the pamphlet condemned racism and said the practice of Southern slavery was unbiblical, critics were troubled that it argued U.S. slavery was more benign than is usually presented in history texts.”

WILSON’S Connections to Neo-Confederates and Reconstructionist Theology

The Southern Poverty Law Center connects Wilson’s views to the Neo-Confederate and Christian Reconstruction movements influenced by R. J. Rushdoony, concluding, “Wilson’s theology is in most ways indistinguishable from basic tenets of [Christian] Reconstruction.

New Atheists- Wilson Loves to Debate

“Wilson has engaged in extensive critique and debate with prominent New Atheists. In May 2007, Wilson debated Christopher Hitchens in a six-part series published first in Christianity Today,^[7] and subsequently as a book entitled Is Christianity Good for the World?” A brief Wiki overview

HIS STATUS AS CALVINIST ICON WITH YOUNG PASTORS.

DOUG WILSON IS A SORT OF ARROGANT PROPHETIC – GET IT SAID- FIGURE TO A SEGMENT OF THE YOUNG CALVINIST FAN BOYS WHO FOLLOW HIM AND MAKE PILGRIMAGE TO MOSCOW IDAHO.

DOUG WILSON’S BAND AND A VIDEO FROM A FEW YEARS AGO

“So, then, there is this little side activity of mine that shows up in public from from time to time, and which would seem to require some explanation.”

THE VIDEO SHOWS THE BAND SMASHING POTS OF CLAY- BOASTING –

“Oh, what do you say?
Oh, what do you say?
Hold your peace, rebellious pot,
The Lord is God and you are not.”

(The theme is clearly taken from Isaiah 45 :⁹“Woe to him who strives with his Maker!
Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth!
Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’
Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’?
¹⁰Woe to him who says to his father, ‘What are you begetting?’
Or to the woman, ‘What have you brought forth?”.

It is also indicative of Jeremiah 18 1-5 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying: ²“Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause you to hear My words.” ³Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something at the wheel. ⁴And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter; so he made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make.5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 6 “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter?” says the Lord. “Look, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel! “)

“The Jenny Geddes Band is a group of friends that like music as much as I do, and which has a floating, inchoate, but very loyal membership. The band is named after the stalwart Scottish woman who threw her milking stool at the head of the minister when he attempted to introduce Anglican forms of prayer at St. Giles Cathedral in 1637.”

CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM – A DANGEROUS AND HARMFUL LABEL AND WHY IT SHOULD NOT BE YOUR IDENTITY. DOUG WILSON IS NOT YOUR CHAMPION.

Leftist Christians have written the narrative against Christian Nationalim already over severla years. If this become the conservative Christian identity – they are limped in with Q Anon/ Proud Boys- Insurrectionist – Muslim Terrorist- Domestic Terrorist and Revolutionaries.

LISTEN TO THE LEFT LEANING CHRISTIAN JOURNALIST-

Examples

Russell Moore

“Christian nationalism can never end in patriotism because it confuses the ultimate and the proximate,” writes Russell Moore.

“Progressive utopianism can never result in patriotism because it does the same.”

DAVID FRENCH– IN THE NEW YORK TIMES

“In 2022, a coalition of right-wing writers and leaders published a document called “National Conservatism: A Statement of Principles.” Its section on God and public religion states: “Where a Christian majority exists, public life should be rooted in Christianity and its moral vision, which should be honored by the state and other institutions both public and private.” That’s an extraordinary — and ominous — ideological statement, one that would immediately relegate non-Christians to second-class status. It’s utterly contrary to the First Amendment and would impose a form of compelled deference to Christianity on both religious minorities and the nonreligious.”

“But Christian nationalism isn’t just rooted in ideology; it’s also deeply rooted in identity, the belief that Christians should rule. This is the heart of the Seven Mountain Mandate, a dominionist movement emerging from American Pentecostalism that is, put bluntly, Christian identity politics on steroids. Paula White, Donald Trump’s closest spiritual adviser, is an adherent, and so is the chief justice of Alabama, Tom Parker, who wrote a concurring opinion in the court’s recent I.V.F. decision. The movement holds that Christians are called to rule seven key societal institutions: the family, the church, education, the media, the arts, business and the government.”

“The problem with Christian nationalism isn’t with Christian participation in politics but rather the belief that there should be Christian primacy in politics and law. It can manifest itself through ideology, identity and emotion. And if it were to take hold, it would both upend our Constitution and fracture our society.”

BY CONTRAST – WILSON IS ON THE PLATFORM WITH YOUNG LIBERTARIANS WHO APPEAR AS CONSERVATIVES.

CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM

On Charlie Kirk Program

Kirk

“Pastor Doug Wilson proudly calls himself a “Christian nationalist.” What does he mean by that? Pastor Wilson talks about the idea of “Christendom,” and how America remained an outpost of Christendom until progressive sabotage in the 20th century. He also explains how belief in God is the root of political rights, and secularism is the path directly to the tyrannies of Stalin & Mao,”

FROM THE RECENT RELIGION NEWS SERVICE /JULIE ROYS ARTICLE

“The Second Coming of Doug Wilson”

“From talk shows to the conference circuit, Wilson, the influential head of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho, for decades, has become a regular voice in conservative political circles, emerging as a figurehead for what is framed as a comparatively moderate version of Christian nationalism.

As far as Wilson is concerned, the media blitz is simply the political world paying attention to ideas he has preached for some time.

“The reason I think it happened,” said Wilson in an interview last week, is because “we’ve been pounding away at these issues for a number of decades.”

“But scholars and critics of Wilson argue his version of Christian nationalism remains radical, and as Wilson associates himself with a widening web of right-wing influencers and personalities — including some who argue the U.S. Constitution is “dead” — analysts say they are worried about precisely what kind of ideas the small-town pastor will promote on the national stage”

“For example, he has floated incorporating the Apostles Creed into the Constitution; believes building a Christian nation in the U.S. should be a “pan-Protestant project”; and has said that while he does not personally endorse the idea of establishing a religion at the state level, he believes it to be legal.”

“Last month, onetime Fox News host Tucker Carlson sat in his cabin-like studio and introduced a bearded, 70-year-old Idaho pastor named Doug Wilson as the person “most closely identified” with Christian nationalism, calling him one of the “rare” clergy “willing to engage on questions of culture and politics.” The vibe was similarly effusive weeks later, when Charlie Kirk, founder of the youth-focused conservative group Turning Point USA, had Wilson on his podcast to define Christian nationalism for listeners, calling the Reformed pastor a “thoughtful, brilliant thinker.”

Kirk was so excited by the interview that he encouraged listeners to “send it to your pastors.”

KIRK AND CARLSON ARE BY FAR MORE YOUNG LIBERTARIANS THAN TRUE CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES .BOTH HAVE THEIR OWN SERIOUS PROBLEMS.

MORE ON WILSON’S VIEWS ON WOMEN AND SEX

Canon Press

DOUG WILSON – IN “THE NATURAL USE OF THE WOMAN”

“Godly women want to feed their men.

“Godly women are designed to make the sandwiches.

This is not an absolute law, like the one about making babies, and there are times when a man fends for himself and makes quite a decent sandwich.

But in the general scheme of things, the apostle Paul wants the women to make the sandwiches.”

ABUSE IN MOSCOW AND PROVOCATIE STATEMENTS ON WOMEN AND SEX

In September 2021 VICE- a Canadian Punk Culture publication sent a reporer to look into the teachings and reports of abuse in Moscow/ Wilsons realm

Inside the Church That Preaches ‘Wives Need to Be Led with a Firm Hand’

“Evangelical pastor Douglas Wilson wrote that men “conquer” and women “surrender.” Christ Church survivors are starting to speak out.”

From the Author of the VICE article and her new book:

“As I started interviewing women from Moscow, Idaho for VICE, I learned how Christ Church pastor Doug Wilson’s teachings impacted their lives. In his book, Father Hunger, Wilson claimed lack of masculine fathers exerting their authority (a masculinity that “does not simper and lisp”) is a root failing of our culture. Egalitarianism is poison. In Fidelity, Wilson writes “the sexual act cannot be made into an egalitarian pleasuring party. A man penetrates, conquers, colonizes, plants. A woman receives, surrenders, accepts.” Authority and submission, he holds, “are therefore an erotic necessity.” He suggests that because our society has lost “biblical concepts of true authority and submission,” caricatures of those roles intrude in our lives with violence. And so “our banished authority and submission comes back to us in pathological forms. This is what lies behind sexual ‘bondage and submission games,’ along with very common rape fantasies.” Men, Wilson writes, “dream of being rapists, and women find themselves wistfully reading novels in which someone ravishes the ‘soon-to-be-made-willing’ heroine.” In The Fruit of Her Hands Nancy Wilson, Doug Wilson’s wife, shares a metaphor for marital sex. Wives cultivate a sort of lovely garden for their husbands and “of course a husband is never trespassing in his own garden.”

WILSON LOVES THE NEGATIVE SPOTLIGHT -HE IS THRIVING IN IT FOR NOW-

WILSON PROUDLY WEARS SUCH LABELS AS

“Famous-Preachers-who-Smoke-Cigars”

“Yeah, Wilson is a controversial figure. But whether you like his approach to church and politics or not, Wilson is another example of a new generation of preachers who enjoy a smoke as they discuss both social and religious issues. Wilson has even written on the topic of smoking.””

FAQs on Christian Nationalism | Doug Wilson

Apr 24, 2024

Pastor Doug Wilson gives answers to a few of the Frequently Asked Questions on Christian Nationalism.

CONCLUSION

Christian Nationalism is NOT an identity for conservative or patriotic Christians. It is a sticky trap baited and intended to lure frustrated and passionate believers into an easy misrepresentation of their political, ideological, and Gospel views. Do not go near it . MORE do NOT FOLLOW inflated egos wearing theologian labels who want to pursuade you that you are a Christian Nationalist or that being one will help usher in the Kingdom of God and a “Golden Age of Christianity ” globally. They are fools on a fools errand.

2nd Timothy 3 :

“Perilous Times and Perilous Men”

3 “But know this, that in the last days ^[a]perilous times will come: ²For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, ³unloving, ^[b]unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, ⁴traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, ⁵having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! ⁶For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, ⁷always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. ⁸Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; ⁹but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.”

BAPTIST CALVINIST- FOUNDERS MINISTRIES LOST IN THE FOG OF CULTURE WARS/STRAW MEN/ SELF PARODY & “ABOLITIONIST” MOVEMENT. PART ONE

An abolitionist vision.

“Imagine this future.“-

“Abortion is completely illegal.

Laws that have protected people from assault, homicide, and wrongful death after their birth now also protect them before birth—from the moment of conception.

Instead of law enforcement officers guarding abortion clinics, they now raid them.

Women who find out they are mothers no longer think of abortion as a legitimate option.

Churches, nonprofits, and communities provide mothers encouragement, resources, and a loving community.

Instead of calling abortion a choice, counselors describe it as the sin of murder for which there is forgiveness in Christ to those who repent.

No one who had an abortion before it was outlawed may be prosecuted.

The very few parents who break the new law by hiring someone to murder their child or doing it themselves risk arrest, along with those who assist them.

Many parents arrested are given immunity in return for their testimony against abortionists.

All defendants face a justice system of law enforcement, prosecutors, grand juries, judges, trial juries, and appellate courts, each part of which is tasked with considering each situation on a case-by-case basis, including mitigating circumstances.

Those defendants who cannot afford an attorney are provided one.

Governors review each conviction and decide whether or not to grant a pardon, a reprieve, or to commute the sentence.

In other words, the same justice system protecting born people also protects those not yet born.

Laws prohibit prosecution of accidental miscarriages or conviction of mothers who abort their child while under threat of force, mothers whose lives are threatened by a medical emergency, or mothers who truly do not know what they are doing—these mothers are protected from criminal liability by existing legal justifications and defenses of duress, necessity, mistake of fact, among others.

Parents, boyfriends, husbands, and others who pressure or aid a mother to abort her baby are all subject to prosecution.

New technologies are developed to address ectopic pregnancies and other medical emergencies to better protect both mother and child.

Fertility doctors using in vitro fertilization no longer fertilize more eggs than they implant.

Legal and financial barriers to adoption are lowered.

Ultimately, as a society, we and our institutions treat all human life from the moment of fertilization as made in the image of God and deserving of love, respect, and equal protection of the laws.

These actions that are fruits of repentance invite God to withhold His hand of judgment upon our land and extend His hand of blessing.“

(THE VISION STATEMENT OF THE FOUNDATION ENDS HERE )

MORE ASCOL /FOUNDERS LOST POSTURING IN THE FOG OF CULTURE WARS.

Ascol and Founders , in the lead up to the SBC 2024 meetings appear to be seeking to impress Southern Baptist that they are on the cutting edge exposing the error and those responsible for it in the SBC. AGAIN the problem is that in stead of featuring the work of any one of a dozen Reformed researchers over the last decade and a half- Ascol has chosen to feature a long time red carpet /entertainment reporter from the troubled publication WORLD Magazine. The reporter- a woman named Megan Basham- is now a Claremont Institute trained “investigative reporter” for Daily Wire the SECULAR publication led by non Christian , Jewish Ben Shapiro.

Basham picks up on the overworn concept of the “Rented Evangelical” from 5 elections cycles ago in a new book being FEATURED BY Founders and Ascol as well as by the Center for Baptist Leadership (headed by Mark Dever and Albert Mohler trainee William Wolfe.)

OLD NEWS IS NO NEWS WHEN DECPTIONS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO GO ON FOR OVER A DECADE –

Both the George Soros and Pierre Omidyar funding into evangelical church organizations has been constantly exposed for many YEARS. Why focus on it while ignoring the corruption of th SBC accepting government and private foundation funding through Faith Based Partnerships and the flood of WOKE Justice funding into seminaries since 2009?

WHY ONLY CALL THEM OUT WHEN THE OFFENDERS ARE MOSTLY GONE AND THE DAMAGE IS DONE?

??? IS THIS JUST CONTROLLED OPPOSITION AND ASCOL IS TOO OUT OF TOUCH TO UNDERSTAND HOW MEDIA WORKS ???

“Controlled opposition refers to a strategy in which an individual, organization, or movement appears to be in opposition to a particular faction or ideology but is actually covertly controlled or influenced by that faction or a third party. The purpose of controlled opposition is often to deceive, manipulate, or neutralize genuine opposition or dissent. Identifying controlled opposition can be challenging, but there are certain indicators that can help in recognizing its presence.”

REAL OPPOSITION TAKES PLACE WHEN THE INFILTRATION AND DECEPTION IS FIRST DISCOVERED AND ITS HARM CAN BE AVOIDED.

“We had such amazing interest and rapid registration for our event that our generous sponsors have agreed to provide some of the free resources to more than the first 500 who registered!”

SO NOW FOUNDERS IS A REVIVAL MOVEMENT?

FOUNDERS DEVOTED CALVINIST FOLLOWING HAVE HISTORICALLY HATED “REVIVALIST” IN THE CHURCH AND PREFERRED “REFORMER ” OR “REFORMATION ” LABELS.

SO WHY IS FOUNDERS / ASCOL NOW MARKETING ITS EFFORTS AS A REVIVAL MOVEMENT?

MAKE UP YOUR MINDS -LOVE IT OR HATE IT JUST DONT PLAY BOTH SIDES.

HONEST QUESTION- Is this message below that PRAYER being retro fitted into the schedule was an after thought?

IT CERTAINLY LOOKS THAT WAY.

THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND TRUE REVIVAL KNOW THAT PRAYER IS FIRST AND LAST THE MOST ESSENTIAL ELEMENT AND ACTIVITY…NOT POLISHING DEBATABLE THEOLOGY.

FoundersMinistries

May 30

“We are great need of revival in our land. And the Lord works through the prayers of His people. We are looking forward to a slight change in schedule at the #NFC25, where we will start both Friday and Saturday mornings with prayer meetings.”

A revival movement that has to remind itself to put prayer in the schedule is in trouble before it begins.

CONCLUSION

Christians must look to the Lord and His Holy Word and PRAY for His intervention

They must also admit and repent of the true state of our nation and the church as the prophet Isaiah did in Chapter One of the prophetic book which bears his name.

Isaiah 1King James Version

1 “The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

²Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the Lord hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.

³The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.

⁴Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.

⁵Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.

⁶From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.

⁷Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

⁸And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.

⁹Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.

¹⁰Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

¹¹To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the Lord: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

¹²When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

¹³Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

¹⁴Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

¹⁵And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

¹⁶Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

¹⁷Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

¹⁸Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

¹⁹If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

²⁰But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

²¹How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

²²Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:

²³Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

²⁴Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:

²⁵And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:

²⁶And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

²⁷Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.

²⁸And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.

²⁹For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.

³⁰For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.

³¹And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.”
